Our Economy And Banks In 2025

Samir Al-Nusairi In the midst of the challenges and repercussions of the political and security events that our country and the countries of the geographical region are currently going through, the methodology of economic and banking reform enters a new phase in 2025 in cooperation and coordination between the government and the Central Bank,

with insistence on continuing to implement the strategy of transitioning the economy and banking sector to recovery and development and achieving good growth rates according to the expectations of the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund in the coming year.

One of the most important steps to reform our national economy is the transformations.

The major task of structuring and developing government and private banks and concluding agreements with solid international consulting and auditing companies to accomplish these tasks in 2025.

According to standard indicators that are relied upon to assess the strength of the economy and the soundness of the banking sector, the most prominent of which is the sufficiency of foreign cash reserves, which exceeded $100 billion, with a sufficiency of 140% to cover imports and the exported local currency, and the decline in the inflation rate to 3.7% after reaching its highest rates at the end of 2022, and the decline in external debt to a level not exceeding $19 billion.

Emphasizing that the objectives of the Central Bank's monetary policy, as stated in its applicable law, are to achieve economic growth and stability, and that one of its main objectives is to achieve stability in the financial and monetary system, reduce inflation rates, and stabilize the prices of goods and services in the extremely complex economic, security, and political conditions that Iraq suffered from in 2023 and 2024.

The government is making clear efforts to revolutionize the active economic sectors, namely agriculture, industry, tourism, customs and tax services fees, and to increase their share of the general budget revenues to 20%.

Which led the Central Bank to take many measures in cooperation with the government to regulate foreign trade, control foreign transfers, regularity in the global financial and banking system, compliance with international standards, digital transformation in the banking sector, and work on preparing and launching its new strategy for banking reform and classification in all its basic links at the level of internal and external banking transactions, the most prominent of which is securing the US dollar for major and registered traders and for every trader, regardless of his classification, at the official price.

This confirms, without a doubt, that the Central Bank’s strategy and measures during the years 2023 and 2024 achieved one of the basic objectives of monetary policy, which is to reduce the inflation rate and maintain the general level of prices of goods and services.

It must be noted that one of the most prominent indicators of the strength and recovery of our economy is what the International Monetary Fund recently expected, that the expected economic growth rate in 2025 will be 5.3%, while it contracted by 2.2% in 2022. The expected rate is higher than the growth rates in Morocco, Kuwait, Bahrain, Oman, Algeria, Jordan and Qatar. It is an indicator.

On the strength of our economy, which is an inevitable result of the economic and financial reform programs implemented by the government and the Central Bank since 2023. 80 views 12/16/2024 - https://economy-news.net/content.php?id=50936
