Iraqi Banks Take Charge: Financing Foreign Trade with Own Dollar Reserves!

DINAR REVALUATION UPDATE: Iraqi Banks to Finance Foreign Trade Using Own Dollar Reserves in 2024, 27 AUGUST

Iraqi Banks to Finance Foreign Trade Using Own Dollar Reserves in 2024

As of August 27, 2024, Iraqi banks have taken on the responsibility of financing foreign trade directly through the dollars they own, rather than relying on the Central Bank of Iraq's (CBI) reserves. 1 This shift marks a significant change in the country's financial operations, aiming to enhance economic stability and reduce dependency on central bank funds.

Background and Context

Iraq has been grappling with a complex financial landscape, characterized by corruption and regulatory challenges within its banking sector. 2 The decision to have banks finance foreign trade through their own dollar reserves comes amid efforts to reform the banking system and improve financial governance. 3

Impact on Foreign Trade

The move is expected to have substantial implications for the way foreign trade is conducted in Iraq. By utilizing their own dollar reserves, banks can potentially streamline transactions and foster greater independence in managing foreign currency flows. 4 This could lead to improvements in the efficiency of trade operations and a reduction in reliance on central bank interventions.

Challenges and Opportunities

Despite the potential benefits, this transition presents challenges. Banks will need to carefully manage their dollar reserves to ensure they can meet the demands of foreign trade without jeopardizing their liquidity positions. 5 It also signals a need for enhanced regulatory oversight to prevent misuse and ensure compliance with international financial standards.

Conclusion

The decision for Iraqi banks to finance foreign trade using their own dollar reserves is a pivotal step in the country's financial reform agenda. It underscores the government's commitment to modernizing the banking sector and reducing the economy's dependency on central bank resources. As Iraq continues to navigate its economic challenges, this move could pave the way for a more resilient and self-sufficient financial system.

Iraq Central Bank says regulated dollar transactions rising, 27 AUGUST

 With dollars dominating the country's economy, Baghdad has imposed a series of restrictions on the use of American greenbacks domestically. 

At the end of 2022 the country's bankings sector also adopted the international financial messaging system known as SWIFT as part of the reforms, to help tackle money laundering and ensure respect for international sanctions.

Oil-rich Iraq has no shortage of dollars, with foreign currency reserves of more than $100 billion (92 billion euros). But experts say tax evasion, the black market and dollar smuggling to countries and entities facing United States sanctions, mainly neighbouring Iran, have increased demand for foreign currencies.

Transactions through the Central Bank electronic platform -- which ensures compliance with SWIFT -- have considerably increased, the bank's vice governor Ammar Khalaf told AFP.

Many "foreign trade transactions are now being conducted via the platform," he said.

"At the beginning of 2023, transactions were at $50 million per day. Now, we have around $200 million, which is consistent with the size of Iraq's economy," he added.

Iraqi banks wanting to access dollar reserves held in the United States must make transfers through the electronic system. The US Federal Reserve will then examine the requests and block them if it finds them suspicious.

"We noticed that rejections have decreased recently because the banks understood international requirements" and traders know better what is needed to transfer their money, Khalaf said.

But the black market is still thriving. 

The official exchange rate is fixed by the government at 1,320 dinars to the dollar. On unofficial markets the dinar has been trading at 1,470 per dollar.

Iraq has close commercial ties with Iran, which also wields considerable political influence in Baghdad where its Iraqi allies dominate parliament and back the current government.

Prime Minister Mohamed Shia al-Sudani acknowledged last year that sanctions preventing dollar transfers to Iranian banks had driven Iraqi traders to the black market.

In late November, the government announced steps to encourage importers of goods like cigarettes, cars, gold and mobile phones to use official channels to obtain dollars.

Iraqi authorities have banned more than 20 Iraqi banks from conducting dollar transactions in accordance with US regulations regarding sanctions and against money laundering.

"We are in constant contact with the American Treasury in an attempt to lift the ban," Khalaf said, hoping that talks "will yield good and positive results." 

The banned banks are restricted from dealing in dollars, but they are allowed to operate local transactions.
