Al-Nusairi: The Central Bank's policies and procedures have contributed to narrowing the gap between the parallel and official exchange rates.

6/11/2025

- Baghdad

Economic and banking advisor Samir Al-Nusairi expects the US dollar exchange rate to gradually decline to approach the official exchange rate, in line with the Central Bank's strategy and ongoing measures for comprehensive banking reform, regulating foreign trade financing, and transitioning from an electronic platform to direct transactions between our banks and correspondent banks.

Al-Nusairi stressed in a televised interview followed by "Al-Eqtisad News" that "the exchange rate announced as the parallel rate does not reflect the price reality, because Iraq does not have the status of a parallel market, which is only achieved when it has sources of dollars and currencies other than the central bank, such as private sector exports, remittances from residents abroad, tourism, etc." Rather, it is a black market for speculators who have lost their ability to manipulate and speculate illegally for 3 months. Also, restricting the sale and distribution of cash dollars with a strict mechanism was praised by the International Monetary Fund and the US Treasury as a successful and advanced method and application to control the stability of the US dollar exchange rate and keep cash dollar sales at a minimum level. Therefore, the circulation of it does not make it available for speculation in the parallel market.

He stated that "we should look at the rate at which the Central Bank covers all external operations, including imports and personal transfers. This explains the price stability, given the current inflation rate, which is less than 2.5%, which is lower than the inflation rates in neighboring countries. This means that the Central Bank has achieved two basic objectives of monetary policy: controlling exchange rates and reducing inflation. This confirms that the wise monetary policy adopted by the Central Bank has contributed significantly to the stability of the exchange rate and the decline of the parallel market to the lowest possible level."

Al-Nusairi concluded that the Central Bank's insistence and cooperation with the government during the second half of the current year will lead to a gradual decline in the US dollar exchange rate, moving from the forties to the official exchange rate.

The first Iraqi faction to enter the Iranian-American war

6/12/2025

The Secretary-General of the Sayyid al-Shuhada Brigades, Abu Alaa al-Walaei, threatened on Thursday to send dozens of "martyrs" to attack American interests if war breaks out against Iran.

Al-Walaei wrote in a post that was widely circulated on social media: "If war breaks out, hundreds of suicide bombers will be on the scene, and America's pride will be humiliated again, just as it was the first time in Iraq when it left, dragging its tails of disappointment."

He added: "This time, neither America nor its agents will remain in the Middle East, and regimes that sought protection from occupation will fall. Then victory will belong to God and His faithful servants."

This comes at a time of escalating regional tensions, following statements by Iranian Defense Minister Aziz Nasirzadeh, in which he threatened that his country would "strike US bases in the region if a conflict erupts with Washington over the nuclear talks."

For its part, the US Department of Defense (the Pentagon) confirmed on Wednesday that it had authorized the voluntary departure of US military families from several locations within the US Central Command (CENTCOM) operational area, which includes Iraq and other countries in the Middle East.

A Pentagon official told Shafaq News Agency, "The safety and security of our armed forces personnel and their families remains our top priority, and US Central Command (CENTCOM) continues to monitor escalating tensions in the Middle East."

The official added: "Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has approved the voluntary departure of military families from multiple locations within the Central Command's operational area."

Want to know how you redeem your money once the exchange rate changes and you're ready to cash in your money?

Just go to your bank and exchange your foreign currency for regular US dollars. That's all you have to do.

There's no fancy 800#s, no special centers, nothing like that.
