Economy News – Baghdad
The Chairman of the Parliamentary Finance Committee, Atwan Al-Atwani, on Monday, assured Tunisian Finance Minister Siham Al-Boghdiri the serious desire to benefit from the Tunisian experience in managing financial and monetary wealth, and its steps in achieving sustainable development.
A statement from the Media Office of the Chairman of the Parliamentary Finance Committee, seen by “Economy News”, stated that “the Chairman of the Parliamentary Finance Committee, Atwan Al-Atwani, and the accompanying delegation, met with the Tunisian Finance Minister Siham Al-Bughdiri, in the presence of the Chargé d’Afaires of the Iraqi Embassy in Tunisia, and the advanced staff in the Tunisian Ministry of Finance, to discuss ways to enhance cooperation and joint coordination between Iraq and Tunisia, with regard to the development of the financial, monetary and economic system, and to achieve the aspirations of the two brotherly peoples.
According to the statement, Al-Atwani stressed “the serious desire to benefit from the Tunisian experience in managing financial and monetary wealth, and its steps in achieving sustainable development, especially since it has a pioneering experience in relying on non-oil revenues, in financing the general budget of the state.”
The statement added that “the meeting came within the framework of Iraq’s direction to maximize its non-oil resources, so we aspire to positive integration with Tunisia in this regard, in order to achieve sustainable development that requires economic stability,” explaining: “This cannot be achieved for a country that depends entirely on oil, and we cannot accept that our economy remains subject to fluctuations in oil prices.”
The statement continued, “The meeting reviewed the most important challenges facing the financial and monetary sector, how to build the general budget of the two brotherly countries, ways to diversify sources of income and address deficits, and mechanisms for expanding the tax base and estimating revenues,” sevisting “the Iraqi government’s adoption of the application of automation and digital transformation, as it is an essential step in combating corruption and improving services.”
TIDBITS FROM WALKINGSTICK, 29 OCT

In the past corrupt executives and parliament people used to take advantage of the banks and the money exchange centers in the black market. Both of these issues are gone...
--Walkingstick
Sudani is slowly allowing banks to be relicensed again but he's bringing in these currency exchange centers as well.
When he relicenses a bank, he will have full control of that bank.
When he brings in these money exchange centers/banks he will have full control of them also. Sudani and the CBI watch every process of the monetary reform...
They will be giving a percentage to these centers and banks of the volume they will be bringing in. It is a symbiotic relationship where they will both benefit...

The Age of Mafia Flourishing in Iraq" .. People's Crises Strengthen the Positions of Currency Smuggling Gangs - Urgent, 28 OCT
The Age of Mafia Flourishing in Iraq" .. People's Crises Strengthen the Positions of Currency Smuggling Gangs - Urgent
Economic expert Nasser Al-Kanani confirmed today, Sunday (October 27, 2024), the existence of mafias exploiting crises in Iraq and the region in order to increase currency smuggling operations.
Al-Kanani told Baghdad Today, "As soon as the war in Lebanon and Gaza escalated and security tensions in the region as a whole, specialized mafias emerged that work to exploit such security conditions in order to increase the process of smuggling currency from Iraq. There are different methods for this smuggling, some of which are done through foreign imports, which take place outside the platform."
He added, "Iraq is working to strengthen its national currency, but there are those who are working to weaken this currency by making the dollar very high against the national currency, and some are working to limit large commercial transactions to the dollar exclusively, and the sale of real estate, cars, etc., and this also weakens the national currency, despite all the campaigns to prevent internal transactions in dollars."
The economic expert continued, "Iraq cannot exploit conflicts and wars to strengthen its national currency, especially since it is working hard, internally and externally, to stay away from these wars. Iraq realizes the great economic danger if it enters the circle of conflict and wars."
The war on Gaza and its consequences, which included many regions of the Middle East, dealt a blow to the global economy, especially the Israeli economy, where government spending exceeded $140 billion, and it also lost approximately $15 billion from the attack on Lebanon, according to economic experts.
Speaking about the consequences of the ongoing conflict in the region on Iraq, researcher and aviation specialist Faris Al-Jawari reveals that there are significant material losses for Iraq as a result of the recent Israeli bombing of Iran.
Al-Jawari told Baghdad Today yesterday, Saturday, that "there are losses and material damages to the Iraqi air transport sector in particular and the airport sector as a result of the recent Israeli aggression on Iran, and this impact is clear and tangible during the recent period, but the recent aggression is the most dangerous as it was the reason for a complete halt to Iraqi aviation."
He explained that "the stoppage means the interruption of financial revenues that come to the Iraqi government through the passage of aircraft over Iraqi airspace, and this is worth ($450) per aircraft, and according to the latest report of the Iraqi Airports Company, approximately (600) aircraft pass over Iraq monthly, and this means that Iraq loses (270) thousand dollars per day."
He added, "There are other material losses as a result of the planes not arriving at the airports, and their failure to arrive there means providing ground services to them, and this provision is in exchange for a sum of money, and this matter is estimated at around ($2,000), and this means that there are great economic damages and losses as a result of the Israeli aggression on Iran and the general security situation in the region."
The aviation specialist confirmed that "Iraqi aircraft are the ones that are directly affected, as most companies were refusing to land at Iraqi airports, and this means that the major losses are incurred by Iraqi Airways, and there is also a service impact at the airports on passengers through the suspension of flights, and this disrupts the work of many passengers and it has economic impacts as well, of course."
Israel launched a series of air strikes on Iran early Saturday morning. Four hours after the start of the operation, which Tel Aviv called "Days of Response," the Israeli army announced that it had completed the attack on military targets in Iran, that all of its aircraft that carried out the attack on Iran had returned safely to their bases, and that the operation had achieved all of its goals. link

we know this is not going to happen until the CBI is ready.
The CBI is not ready until they first secure the banks, the stock market, provide security (insurance) and then begin rebuilding the economy...I must mention this too as it is a factor.
They will not be ready until the US Treasury and the Federal Reserve gives them the green light.
