"RV UPDATE" BY MARKZ, 14 APRIL

  MarkZ  

 [via PDK] 

 Community comment "Sudani looks to be coming to the US on the 15th..."  I think it more likely to happen toward the tail end of the 22nd to see our new rate.  But Iraqi contacts think Sudani is going to announce it in Iraq before he heads to the US on the 15th…. I hope they are right and I am wrong.

  Iraq now has full control of its funds and one of the requirements now that it has control of its funds...to pay back the United States. It cannot do that at a rate of 1310. But it can easily do it with a value change. I believe the next 10-11 days are going to be huge.

 [via PDK]  Iraq now has full control of its funds and one of the requirements now that it has control of its funds...to pay back the United States.  It cannot do that at a rate of 1310. But it can easily do it with a value change. I believe the next 10-11 days are going to be huge.

Question:  Where will redemption
centers be?
  MarkZ:  I have been told this over and over that the majority of the US - 90% of us will have a RC within 50 miles of where we live.  The only people who may have a longer  drive are those in rural areas…low populations like the Dakotas and Wyo…They will not release exact locations before the event starts for security. 

 [via PDK]   I do have one Iraqi contact that is convinced we are in a day or two. I think he may be premature…but he is convinced it is this week. He does work in the Iraqi government so he may know more than I do. I am hoping he does. But I am keeping an eye on it.

  I heard there will be more activity from Redemption banks for later this month as they are getting some last minute instructions...  They even used the term “Last minute instructions” So I take that as a very good sign.  I am hopeful we are in the last few days or weeks at worse….

  Question:    Do you think things have started?  MarkZ:   After this week I have no doubts that things have started. And are well underway. I think we are in the rollout process right now.

"PRIVATE BANKING V. WEALTH MANAGEMENT & ZIM CURRENCIES" BY BEARDED PATRIOTUSA, 14 APRIL

Private Banking vs. Wealth Management: What's the Difference? by kimmyB via Bearded PatriotUSA telegram Room, 19 MARCH

Private Banking vs. Wealth Management: What's the Difference?


Wealth management is a broader category that involves dealing with the optimization of a client's portfolio, taking into account their aversion to, or comfort with, risk, and investing financial assets according to their plans and goals. Wealth management can be practiced on a portfolio of any size, though, as the name implies, it is geared toward the well-off.


Private banking, by comparison, typically refers to an envelope solution for high-net-worth individuals (HNWIs) wherein a public or private financial institution employs staff members to offer high-net-worth clients personalized care and management of their finances .

"THE LAUNCH OF USTN TRIGGERS A WAVE OF MASSIVE REDEMPTION OF ZIM BONDS!!" BY BEARDED PATRIOTUSA, 10 MARCH

 BEARDED PATRIOTUSA

The clock is ticking: the imminent launch of USTN triggers a wave of massive redemption of Zim bonds! The beginning of R&R awaits you!


The countdown has begun and the stakes couldn't be higher.


 In the coming days, a seismic shift is expected to ripple through the entire financial system, a move so bold, so unprecedented, that it threatens to reshape the economic landscape of the United States, and perhaps even the world. 


At the center of this monumental transition is the launch of the USN – USTN, the new United States monetary system, which will be implemented between March 14 and 15.


 This is not just a routine adjustment of monetary policy; It is a complete overhaul, a reinvention of the exchange rate as we know it.

Zimbabwe has reverted to the gold standard


While most countries abandoned the gold standard in the last century, some African nations are reconsidering its necessity to stabilize their economies. This month, the Zimbabwean dollar became the new "gold" currency. The need to switch to the gold standard has been a long-discussed issue in the country, with the Zimbabwean dollar experiencing a more than 500% depreciation, and the currency rate plummeting by over threefold in just the last three months.


The Zimbabwean dollar is a relatively new currency, established five years ago following the rise to power of the new president Mnangagwa. One of his first decisions was a complete overhaul of the national economy and financial system. This approach wasn't new for Zimbabwe: in the last decade, the country introduced and then removed from circulation ten independent currencies, each plummeting steeply and rapidly losing value. 


Introducing the gold Zimbabwean dollar aims to stabilize the exchange rate and help the country combat endless inflation. Unfortunately for Zimbabwe, the gold standard might only last for a short period. The country's gold reserve currently stands at just one ton of gold, barely enough to cover one month of imports at current volumes. President Mnangagwa is trying to address this issue by seeking additional international aid and opening the country to foreign investors. Success, however, remains elusive.


Most international investors view Zimbabwe with caution, a country perpetually suffering from military coups and civil wars. Companies willing to consider investments are usually affiliated with military corporations and special services, posing a significant threat to the current president's regime. The viability of Zimbabwe's "gold" experiment will be tested over the next six months, as the country faces challenging negotiations with international creditors.

"ANALYSIS OF IRAQ NEWS: “America is not favoring us, and this is our money,”, BY MNT GOAT, 14 APRIL

 MNT GOAT

AL-KHAZALI CALLS FOR IRAQ’S FREEDOM TO DISPOSE OF DOLLARS: AMERICA IS NOT KIND TO US AND THIS IS OUR MONEY

The Secretary-General of the “Asa’ib Ahl al-Haq” group, Qais Al-Khazali, on Wednesday called on Prime Minister Muhammad Shia’a Al-Sudani to emphasize the issue of Iraq’s freedom to dispose of its US dollar funds during his upcoming visit to the United States of America.

Al-Khazali said in an Eid prayer sermon that he delivered to a gathering of worshipers in Baghdad, The issue of economic sovereignty, and Iraq’s ownership of its decision-making and sovereignty regarding its disposal of its US dollar funds, is important and complex.”

He added, “America is not favoring us, and this is our money,” stressing the importance of “Iraq having the freedom to dispose of this money according to its interests.”

Al-Khazali continued by saying, “Iraq has demonstrated – despite the unfair, unrealistic and exaggerated conditions set by the US Treasury on disposing of the dollar – great compliance with these conditions,” considering that the United States is trying “to exploit the economic card to maintain the current military status of its forces in Iraq, and this is what we do not accept.”
