Expert: Jordanian And Gulf Banks Control The Iraqi Banking Sector And Push It Toward Collapse
January 4 18:35 Information / private.. Economic expert Mustafa Akram Hantoush confirmed today, Saturday, that the banking system is going through a major crisis, noting that Gulf and Jordanian banks have now controlled the monetary and dollar sector inside Iraq. Hantoush said in a statement to the Maalouma Agency, "The Iraqi banking system is almost non-existent at the present time, as four or five Gulf and Jordanian banks control the movement of funds." He added, "Four Jordanian banks submitted applications to enter the Iraqi market, and two of them succeeded in operating, while two others, Al-Ittihad and Housing, are still under study." He explained,
"This situation strengthens the dominance of these banks over the dollar, while local banks are facing major challenges, as some of them remain in the market, while others are forced to search for agreements with Jordanian and Gulf banks in order to continue working," adding,
"Whoever does not succeed... In reaching agreements with these banks, he will move towards merging or exiting the market.” He pointed out that "the banking system was previously suffering from weakness in its structure, and today it is in a state of complete collapse," stressing that "it has become very difficult to obtain loans in Iraq easily, and
whoever succeeds in this needs relationships and mediation, which reflects the situation in Iraq." "Stagnation and paralysis in the Iraqi banking system." It is noteworthy that the United States imposed sanctions on 34 Iraqi banks in an attempt to restrict the Iraqi economy, which opens the way for five Jordanian and Gulf banks to enter the Iraqi market, with the aim of completely controlling the economy amid the silence of the Iraqi government. 25 d finished https://almaalomah.me/news/87219/economy/خبير:-المصارف-الأردنية-والخليجية-تسيطر-على-القطاع-المصرفي-ال
MZ: Well….under their current system –when the value changes it will not count at all on the limit….they are talking about 10K worth of transfers.
What you should be excited about is they have a mechanism in place to deal with the IQD. They are clearing telling us…and if you look through their list of currencies- it includes almost every single one that many of us in this community have picked up. I think you should be excited and not worried about this. .
Member: Hoping it changes to a whole new gold backed acct….
Member: Will Wells Fargo be one of the exchanging banks?
MZ: I am 100 percent sure Wells Fargo is a participating bank.
Economist: The Government’s Measures Did Not Close The Gap Between The Official And Parallel Price Of The Dollar
January 5 10:55 Information / Baghdad...Economic affairs researcher Diaa Abdel Karim said that government measures regarding government and private banks and issuing decisions about exchange companies were unable to close the gap between the official and parallel dollar exchange rates. Abdul Karim told Al-Maalouma,
“The parallel exchange rate for the dollar is approximately 20,000 Iraqi dinars higher than the official one, as it is a big difference with the official selling price at the Central Bank outlets, and it requires the government to intervene to take further measures to eliminate this difference.”".
He added, "There is an urgent need to take measures that would stop any transactions in dollars at home, including ending transactions in dollars regarding the buying and selling of cars in trade showrooms, where citizens resort to buying dollars from banking outlets in order to go to official or private showrooms to buy a car." He stated,
“The government can open a window and allocate it to sell dollars for the purpose of buying a car,
or
impose strict control and force official exhibitions not to deal in dollars, in order to limit foreign currency to foreign transfers, travel, and imports, and
the dollar is sold in official outlets only, in order to end the difference between the official and parallel prices.”. End25n
