150,000 Kurdish employees receive their salaries digitally via the “Hisabi” system , 28 OCT

  150,000 Kurdish employees receive their salaries digitally via the “Hisabi” system 

The Financial System Administration "Hisabi" in the Kurdistan Region announced, on Sunday, the expansion of the scope of its digital operations so that the number of beneficiaries of the system reached 150 thousand employees during the past week.

According to the official website of the "My Account" system, which Shafak News Agency has reviewed, the number is increasing monthly and 150,000 employees have received their salaries through the system, which reflects the continuous growth in the adoption of the system to facilitate the process of disbursing salaries through digital bank accounts.

The system is expected to include all eligible employees in the region by the end of next year, as they will be able to receive their salaries directly through their own bank accounts.

This expansion comes within the framework of the Kurdistan Region's efforts to enhance the digital infrastructure and facilitate financial transactions for citizens.  link

TIDBITS FROM FRANK26, 28 OCT

 Frank26

 The specialized courses that are being taught to these people to run these exchange centers so that the [Iraqi] citizens can go and trade in their 3 zero notes, it's done.

  It's the only reason why they're telling you about it...It's not a secret. 

 Sudani cleaned up the swamp. 

 All of a sudden all of the banks that were stealing the Iraqi dinar, American dollar and profiteering illegally...he cleaned it all up

 I told you we needed the CBI floor to be so spotless that you could eat off of the floor.  The United States Treasury is on the second floor of the new CBI building. 

 It's spotless.  All the bank that [were stealing] have been shut down. 

 All the political parties that had power in the media and in the banking structure of Iraq are slowly being whittled away.
