🇮🇶🇬🇧 IRAQ & THE UK: A KEY SECURITY DEVELOPMENT

🤝 British National Security Adviser Jonathan Powell has met with senior Iraqi and Kurdistan Region officials, highlighting Iraq’s efforts to bring all weapons under state control.

🛡️ WHY IT MATTERS:

✅ Strengthens Iraq’s government authority

✅ Supports regional security and stability

✅ Deepens cooperation with Western partners

✅ Could boost investor confidence and economic partnerships

📊 MY OBSERVATION: Iraq’s ability to establish stronger state control and maintain international partnerships could play a crucial role in its long-term stability and economic development.

⚠️ The visit signals diplomatic engagement, but concrete results will depend on actions and agreements that follow.

🇮🇶 A MORE STABLE IRAQ COULD OPEN THE DOOR TO GREATER INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION AND INVESTMENT.

🇮🇶 IRAQ’S U.S. TREASURY HOLDINGS: A POSSIBLE SHIFT?

 SHAFAQ NEWS

Iraq drops out of the latest ranking of major foreign holders of US Treasury securities for August 2026, after its holdings stood at $42 billion in December, though its absence does not indicate a full sell-off Read more… https://shafaq.com/en

🇮🇶 IRAQ’S U.S. TREASURY HOLDINGS: A POSSIBLE SHIFT?

📰 NEWS SUMMARY: Iraq no longer appears in the latest ranking of major foreign holders of U.S. Treasury securities for August 2026. Its holdings were reported at $42 billion in December. This does not mean Iraq sold all its holdings.

📊 ANALYSIS: Reducing U.S. Treasury holdings could reflect reserve diversification, but it does not automatically mean Iraq is preparing to detach the dinar from the U.S. dollar. Such a move would require clear changes to monetary and exchange-rate policy.

🔎 MY OBSERVATION: Iraq’s reserve strategy is worth watching. If Baghdad intends to reduce its dependence on the dollar, future changes in reserve management and official exchange-rate policy will be more revealing than Treasury rankings alone.

⚠️ IMPORTANT: This development does not confirm a dinar revaluation, a change in its dollar peg, or a timeline for monetary reform.

🇮🇶 THE BIG QUESTION: Is Iraq simply diversifying its reserves, or could its long-term monetary strategy be evolving? Official announcements and verifiable data will be key.

🇮🇶 IRAQ BANKING REFORM: A KEY STEP TO WATCH FOR DINAR RV FOLLOWERS!

 🇮🇶 IRAQ BANKING REFORM: A KEY STEP TO WATCH FOR DINAR RV FOLLOWERS!

🏦 Iraq’s Association of Private Banks has revealed three key pillars of banking reform under the Central Bank of Iraq’s 2025–2027 plan:

✅ Stronger governance and banking management ✅ Improved financial performance and indicators ✅ Stricter compliance and anti-money laundering controls

📊 Banks must review their progress every six months, with options for reform, mergers, or leaving the market if requirements are not met.

💱 WHY DOES THIS MATTER FOR THOSE WAITING FOR THE DINAR RV?

A stronger, more transparent banking system could help Iraq modernize its financial sector, improve international confidence, and support broader economic reforms.

🔥 THE BIG PICTURE: Banking reform is an important part of Iraq’s financial modernization, but it does NOT confirm an upcoming dinar revaluation or a new exchange rate.

🇮🇶 We’ll be watching for further progress as Iraq moves toward its 2027 reform goals!

THE ASSOCIATION OF PRIVATE BANKS REVEALS THREE PILLARS FOR BANKING REFORM.

The Association of Private Banks revealed on Monday three pillars of banking reform, noting that the banking reform plan is reviewed every six months.

The association’s executive director, Ali Tariq, told the Iraqi News Agency (INA): “The Central Bank has launched a central reform plan for 2025-2027, and this plan concerns private banks, which must implement it on several axes, including governance, the work plan, financial indicators, in addition to compliance and combating money laundering.”

He added that “the banks are working on this plan and reviewing it every six months, with the aim of all banks implementing it,” indicating that “there are paths to reform, whether reform individually, mergers, or outside the market.”

He added that “the banking reform plan is a large plan with many requirements that private banks must fulfill within the set timeframe.”

SANDY INGRAM & MILITIAMAN: THE PEOPLE WANT A STRONGER DINAR! 💵

 🇮🇶 IRAQ’S CURRENCY: THE PEOPLE WANT A STRONGER DINAR! 💵

📌 Sandy Ingram: The Iraqi People Want a Higher-Valued Currency

Sandy Ingram explains that small businesses are the backbone of a country’s economy. In the United States, they employ more than 60% of workers and represent 45% of GDP.

In Iraq, the decision to devalue the currency is helping the government address a serious financial crisis, but it is also creating major challenges for businesses and ordinary citizens.

Because Iraq imports many essential products, a weaker dinar makes food, medicine, and other necessities more expensive. The Iraqi people want the IQD to be worth considerably more than 1,500 dinars to $1.00.

📌 October 20, 2026 —  Militia Man

“The US Treasury lifted restrictions on Iraqi exchange companies after they met the CBI standards ... Obviously there's been a tone that's shifted. Instead of sanctioning banks they're lifting sanctions.”

🔎 CONNECTING THE DOTS

On one side, Iraqi citizens and businesses are feeling the pressure of a weaker currency. On the other, Iraq’s financial sector is experiencing developments involving compliance with Central Bank of Iraq (CBI) standards and the lifting of U.S. Treasury restrictions on exchange companies.

Could these developments contribute to a stronger banking system and support Iraq’s long-term economic goals?

💡 The big question: Could continued financial reforms eventually pave the way for a stronger Iraqi dinar?

Dinarians, what do you think? Are you watching these developments closely?

THOM , STEPHEN, RESET INTELLIGENCE & JEFF: 🇮🇶 CONNECTING THE DOTS

 🇮🇶 IRAQ DINAR UPDATE — OCTOBER 20, 2026

📡 Connecting the Dots | Latest Guru Opinions & Intel

🔎  Thom

Article: “The Central Bank directs the Iraqi Trade Bank and private banks to increase working hours and operate on holidays from October 21 to November 30 to execute external remittances.”

“We are monitoring the situation…”

📌  Stephen — October 20, 2026

“It has been speculated and argued by numerous dinar people that they're sending the budget back to get revised because they're working on a new rate. Is that true? It seems very plausible. No one can confirm or deny that information.

That's why this is a speculative investment. All we can do is look at the actions Iraq is taking, not so much at what they're saying, and then try to draw some type of conclusion from that.

Does this mean when the budget is submitted to parliament it is going to have the new rate? It seems that would make logical sense, but we don't know.”

🛢️  Reset Intelligence — October 20, 2026

“Iraq's oil is flowing again. Baghdad is selling its oil again at close to the pace it sold before the war. The oil minister says exports are above 3.4 million barrels a day this month, up from about 3 million in September.

On October 8, Baghdad said the closed Strait of Hormuz had choked its oil exports. That was its reason for moving the IQD to 1,500. The cut was made to protect Iraq's dollar reserves from the oil shock. This month, the oil is flowing again.”

📉 Jeff — October 20, 2026

“They did not do the devaluation until after the US troops were fully out of Iraq.

I look at the devaluation more as a short-term economic tool to do a few simple tasks in the short term. I don't look at this as a long-term step. I don't think it'll be in place more than a month…”

🔔 CONNECTING THE DOTS

Iraq's banking operations, budget discussions, oil exports, and exchange-rate policies remain key developments to watch. Could these events signal a shift in Iraq's economic direction? The gurus are sharing their interpretations, but the timing and outcome remain uncertain.

💬 What do you think these developments mean for the Iraqi dinar?
