Expected Rise In The Dollar... "Temporary Shock" Awaits The Iraqi Market, 24 DEC
Expected Rise In The Dollar... "Temporary Shock" Awaits The Iraqi Market
Economy |Today Baghdad Today – Baghdad The "Iraq Al-Mustaqbal" Foundation for Economic Studies and Consultations expected, today, Monday, December 23, 2024, an increase in the dollar exchange rate during the next few days, following the announcement by the Central Bank of Iraq to stop the currency transfer window platform.
The head of the institution, Manar Al-Obaidi, said in a statement to "Baghdad Today", that "the suspension of the Central Bank's currency transfer platform, which was officially announced on 12/23/2024, will lead to a temporary rise in the dollar exchange rate in the market as a result of the prevailing state of fear, but things will return to normal with the beginning of the new year."
Al-Obaidi added, "This decision had been previously announced by the Central Bank, but such measures, when implemented, cause a shock to the market, leading to a temporary rise in the exchange rate, before the shock is gradually absorbed."
He explained that "the difference between the official and parallel markets will remain, but it will shrink as the situation stabilizes."
Economic expert Nasser Al-Tamimi warned, on Tuesday (December 17, 2024), of a rise in the dollar exchange rate in Iraq in the coming days.
Al-Tamimi told Baghdad Today, "There are real fears in the Iraqi market of the continued rise in the dollar exchange rate after the Central Bank of Iraq stopped working on the platform," indicating that "this matter will constitute a shock, especially at the beginning of implementing the decision and will lead to a rise in the dollar, to increase demand for it in the parallel market."
He added that "after the platform is stopped, most traders, especially small ones, will depend on the parallel market to finance their foreign trade, while continuing to finance trade with Iran and Turkey in dollars, through illegal means," noting that "this is what will lead to the rise, and therefore practical steps must be taken to prevent this by the country's monetary authority, and urgently."
The Central Bank of Iraq revealed on Wednesday (September 4, 2024) the mechanism for ending the electronic platform for foreign transfers, while indicating that the placement of foreign transfer operations and meeting requests for the dollar are on sound paths and consistent with international practices and standards.
