Source: New Digital Bank In Iraq Threatened With International Sanctions Over Money Laundering
Source: New Digital Bank In Iraq Threatened With International Sanctions Over Money Laundering
July 21, 2025 Al-Mustaqilla/- An informed source said that a new digital bank in Iraq, linked to a prominent political figure, faces international scrutiny and potential sanctions in the coming period due to serious financial cases related to money laundering and smuggling funds abroad.
The source, who spoke on condition of anonymity, confirmed to Al-Mustaqilla's correspondent that
investigations conducted by international and security agencies revealed the bank's involvement in suspicious financial transactions, most notably the issuance of fake bank cards used to transfer illegal funds outside Iraq.
This has sparked widespread concern within the local and international banking community.
These developments come amid mounting criticism of the Iraqi financial system, which suffers from weak oversight and is being exploited by some political parties to pursue personal interests at the expense of the national economy.
The source confirmed that sanctions will be imposed on the bank in the coming period, which could open the door to broader investigations to uncover more suspicious financial networks inside and outside Iraq.
This news raises serious questions about the transparency of the Iraqi financial sector and the possibility of achieving real reforms that put an end to the exploitation of political money among modern digital banks. https://mustaqila.com/مصدر-مصرف-رقمي-جديد-في-العراق-مهدد-بعقو/

Wednesday Coffee with MarkZ. joined by Bob Lock. 07/23/2025
Some highlights by PDK-Not verbatim
MarkZ Disclaimer: Please consider everything on this call as my opinion. People who take notes do not catch everything and its best to watch the video so that you get everything in context. Be sure to consult a professional for any financial decisions
Member: Good morning fellow coffee drinkers and MarkZ friends and family
Member: So what is new and exciting today Mark??? Are we almost at the end?
MZ: I do think we are almost at the end. Although no one knows the exact timing….events point as this being veery close.
Member: What are we looking for next regarding the GCR? is there any event that must occur, or are we waiting for a date to come like August 1st when tarrifs begin?
Member: Bruce thinks this is our week for sure
Member: Praying and praying some more than Bruce is right.
MZ: Nothing fresh since yesterday on groups or bonds. Yesterday the groups side was very encouraging.
MZ: “ Al Sudani’s office publishes new details on phone call with US Secretary of State” They discussed a lot of things but Erbil was high on their list. Most of the call was about getting oil pumping from the Kurdish region.
Member: Baghdad will be paying Kurd salaries in “the next few hours” and Kurd COM came out and said they’ve agreed to resume oil so maybe today
Member: Trump has just recently made trade deals with Japan, Indonesia and the Phillipines.
Member: With a deal with Vietnam last month….Things are getting interesting
MZ: This is a huge one: “Trump announces Trade deal with Japan” He also talks about the deal with Indonesia. There has been a massive change in trade relations …..we are watching all the countries we are interested in get trade deals…I think this is a tell tale sign.
Member: Sounds like Nesara/Gesara to me…..I believe currency rates are also built into those trade deals.
Member: I have always wondered if Nesara and RV would go at the same time .. I know it doesn’t have to. But it makes sense.
MZ: “Trump considering eliminating Capital gains tax on houses” It makes sense as we have a housing shortage and many people are not selling their houses because they don’t want to take the tax hit. Now we need action…not just talk
Member: That goes for the RV as well…..lots of talk and chatter….but we need some action.
Member: We don't have a Capital Gain tax on houses in Quebec. Only secondary houses, not the main one.
Member: How about stopping All Unconstitutional Taxes??? What a concept!
Member: Will we have to pay Capital Gains tax on our currency exchange?
Member: Hope for the best but prepare for the worst…..noone really know until we exchange.
Member: If we could audit the Federal Reserve we would find that they have enough money to pay off our 33 trillion National Debt.
We also need to audit the Treasury and Ft. Knox…….Is DOGE gone now or are they still working?
Member: Maybe they are working behind the scenes????
Member: I wonder if Congress being gone on vacation make a difference or does it matter for the RV?
Member: we need to gather in prayer and plead to God for the RV to please happen soon.
Member: What does your gut say Mark?
MZ: My gut says we are almost done….so many of my sources are now looking at the week of the 28th. I am hopeful and trying not to get to excited.
Member: I’m hopeful RV for before the 28th
Member: Thanks Mark and Mods…..I hope we all have a wonderful Wednesday today.
The US Has Stopped Sending Cash Dollars To Iraq. Is This The Beginning Of A Blockade?
The US Has Stopped Sending Cash Dollars To Iraq. Is This The Beginning Of A Blockade?
July 21, 2025 Al-Mustaqillah/- Private sources confirmed that the United States has decided to completely halt cash dollar shipments to Iraq, a move described as potentially the beginning of a "financial blockade" on some Iraqi banks involved in currency smuggling and money laundering.
According to a source who spoke to Al-Mustaqilla on condition of anonymity,
Washington's decision does not pertain to Iraq as a country, but rather targets specific banks suspected of involvement in suspicious dollar transfers to countries subject to international sanctions.
This has angered the US Treasury, prompting it to tighten controls on dollar movement within the Iraqi market.
Sudden drop in exchange rate after the decision
Remarkably, the US decision coincided with a significant decline in the dollar exchange rate in the Iraqi market. Experts interpreted this as a natural consequence of the restrictions on the circulation of cash and the prevention of its smuggling abroad.
This led to an increase in supply in the local market and a temporary decline in its price.
Government shift towards “legal dollarization”
Separately, a banking source revealed that the Iraqi government has been relying on
new mechanisms for disbursing salaries and conducting financial transactions for months.
These mechanisms involve legal invoices processed through official banks and digital platforms linked to the global financial system. This is an alternative to the paper dollar shipments previously transported into the country by air.
The source indicated that this step represents a major shift in cash liquidity management in Iraq,
making it difficult for suspicious entities to continue smuggling or manipulating the currency market.
Is this the beginning of the storm?
The US decision raises many questions about the future of dollar transactions in Iraq,
especially in light of escalating regional tensions and Washington's tightening of financial sanctions.
Are we witnessing the beginning of a new phase of international restrictions on the Iraqi economy?
Or is this merely a technical measure against some violating banks? https://mustaqila.com/أمريكا-توقف-إرسال-الدولار-النقدي-إلى-ا/
MNT GOAT: "CBI Moves Closer to Dinar Reinstatement as Market Rate Aligns with Official Rate"
STATUS OF THE RV
LOL, LOL to all you TNT followers. So, I guess your great pied-piper leader did not get the correct information for all you gullible puppets out there for this weekend’s RV?
Oh… I guess his purely speculative prediction from his “secret” sources didn’t pan out…lol… AGAIN? Oh…I wonder why! Oh…. But this was only about the thousandth time! Good luck with all this bullshit.
_____________________________
Yes, No RV yet. But I do have some wonderful news for everyone that shows us significant changes are coming. This news is all FACTUAL. We don’t have to guess or predict. We can see the writing is on the wall.
There is going to be a situation soon that will allow the CBI to conduct the Project to Delete the Zeros and then move on to the reinstatement.
We already read in the article titled “ THE DINAR IS RECOVERING AND THE EXCHANGE RATE IS DECLINING TOWARDS THE OFFICIAL RATE” that the CBI predicts the parallel market rate to equal the “official” CBI rate this year.
Is this not what my contact told me we wanted to see prior to the Project to Delete the Zeros? But this is only the start of the WOW! news for today. So, let’s continue….
So, let me explain these new developments that will lead help us see the RV is coming soon. To get to this news I first have to refer to the IMF Article 4 consultation review with Iraq just completed a couple weeks ago.
These sessions give the IMF member professional advice on the economy, what to expect in the future and advise how to prevent any negative impacts.
The IMF issues their results and there are many negative issues they must work on, but this is constructive information as there is always work to be done to improve.
The best part of all this is the follow-up statements in an official brief the IMF made about Iraq’s exchange rate arrangements which I will now address.
Much more to come!
Let’s all chip in and help keep the Mnt Goat Newsletter ALIVE!
I am looking forward to bringing you the rest of this WOW! news soon and all the articles to back up what I am about to tell you.
