LATEST FROM MARKZ, 7 SEPT

MARKZ

MZ: Actually some lovely news came overnight last night….Will give you a warm and fuzzy feeling

 MZ: Some Nesara contacts that I have not heard from in quite awhile have suddenly come alive….Not just my contacts…but others as well……and they are suddenly very excited……they say Nesara could happen as early as mid month……They believe this is it!!!

MZ: Crossing my fingers and hopin it is accurate. But hearing a lot of chatter that makes me feel good.

MZ: Redemption contacts do not think they have to work this weekend though. They are still a little salty about being on call last weekend and them messing with vacations ect…..

MZ: Iraq was quiet overnight…but there was lots of news over the last 2 days.

Member: What happens if Nesara goes first?

MZ: This is my opinion……I have been told that the first thing to happen with Nesara is a formal cancellation of fractionalized institutional debt. Then I expect it will go on from there with the rest.

Member: Will they release the RV on weekends or week days?

MZ: I am told its easier to release it on a weekend- Saturday night to Sunday morning …but anytime is fair game.

Member: What is your gut feeling for RV Mark?

MZ: You guys will give me hell whether it’s right or wrong….nobody knows the timing…….but my gut feeling is between the 11th and 15th……just a guess……

MZ: They will not tell you where to go ahead of time for security reasons. They want to keep it as private as they can. But I was told 90% of Americans will have an exchange location within 50 miles of their house….If you are in remote rural areas ….you may have further to go…..not sure about other countries.

MZ: They are the same things…..The redeeming banks/redemption centers…are bank locations with trained staff and equipment to handle our exchanges.  


DINAR REVALUATION UPDATE: IRAQ DISCUSSED WITH US. TREASURY & THE FEDERAL RESERVE THE FUTURE OF THE IRAQI DINAR, 7 SEPT

 Iraq's International Status and Developments on the Dinar and Investment Laws as of September 2024

As of September 2024, Iraq has made significant strides in its international standing, with promising developments in both the value of the Iraq Dinar and the country's investment laws. 

Iraq's International Standing

Iraq's progress in international relations has been marked by a period of relative calm and stability since the appointment of Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani in October 2022. This stability has allowed the Iraqi government to focus on key reforms aimed at addressing unemployment, reducing poverty, and improving government services. 

Economic Recovery and Fiscal Policies

The Iraqi economy has seen a gradual recovery from the dual shocks of the oil price drop and the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. Real GDP growth in 2021 edged up, and both oil and non-oil sectors are on track to reach pre-pandemic levels. The non-oil economy, particularly the services sector, has shown robust growth, outpacing the oil sector.  

Budget and Fiscal Expansion

Iraq's parliament approved a record-breaking three-year budget in June 2023, the largest in the country's history, signaling the government's commitment to financial reforms and investment in the economy. The budget's focus on fiscal expansion has been instrumental in supporting the non-oil economic recovery. 

Developments in the Iraq Dinar

Dinar Revaluation

The Central Bank of Iraq (CBI) announced a revaluation of the Iraqi Dinar in February 2023. This move, aimed at stabilizing the currency and improving trade finance, has contributed to the decline in domestic inflation to 4 percent by the end of 2023. 

Investment Laws and Reforms

Reforms in investment laws have been a critical component of Iraq's economic strategy. The government has been working on implementing structural reforms to address the grievances of its citizens, including the diversification of the economy away from oil. The passage of new legislation and the ongoing efforts to improve the business environment have attracted more foreign direct investment (FDI). 

Financial Reforms and U.S. Delegation

A high-level delegation from the Central Bank of Iraq, led by Governor Ali Mohsen Al-Alaq, visited the United States in August 2024. The delegation held meetings with the U.S. Treasury, the Federal Reserve, and major financial institutions, where they discussed financial reforms and the future of the Iraqi Dinar

Conclusion

Iraq's international standing has been bolstered by its economic recovery, fiscal expansion, and the revaluation of the Iraqi Dinar. The government's focus on reforming investment laws and diversifying the economy has attracted more FDI and improved the business environment. As of September 2024, these developments have positioned Iraq for continued growth and stability in the global market.
