Samson:  A Record Rise In The Rate Of “Domestic Cash” Outside Iraqi Banks In 2021
7th February, 2022
The economic expert, Manar Al-Obaidi, revealed, on Monday, the high proportion of the local monetary mass outside the scope of Iraqi banks at the end of last year.
Al-Obaidi said, in a Facebook post followed by / the information, that “the local cash outside the banking system has increased by 50% since the beginning of 2020 to reach more than 70 trillion dinars at the end of 2021, after it was 47 trillion dinars at the beginning of 2020.”
He attributed this to “the weak banking culture and the lack of confidence in the banking system, which kept many from dealing with local banks.”
The expert explained that “deposits with Iraqi banks increased by 15% to reach 93 trillion dinars, after it was at the beginning of 2020 81 trillion Iraqi dinars,” noting that “the ratio of cash outside the banking system to the volume of deposits is about 75%, which is a high percentage. Very much compared to other countries.

He called for “the adoption of banking policies that increase confidence in the banking sector, as well as the adoption of stricter policies in monetary transactions outside the banking system that would increase the value of deposits and reduce the cash outside the banking system, which would lead to an increase in the banking sector’s contribution to the domestic product, which would create job opportunities. Reality in a country where the unemployment rate is more than 30%.”
Al-Obaidi considered that “Iraq is among the countries with a low banking mass, where there is a bank for every 32 thousand people, while the global average is 10 thousand people for each bank, and Iraq needs to open 3 times the number of banks and their branches that currently exist, and many of the existing banks are weak banks that depend on an auction work on the sustainability of its work.”  LINK

Don961:  Expert: Weak culture prevents the spread of electronic payment services
Saturday 05 February 2022  Baghdad: Mustafa Al-Hashemi 
Many citizens, especially those who have traveled abroad, wonder why POS  Point of Sale (the device that reads financial cards) is not widespread in the country, although it has come a long way and has the necessary infrastructure for the successful spread of this service, especially after the entry of modern technology into Iraq. And that it is still new to providing electronic services to citizens by opening the door for shopping and conducting commercial transactions.
Earlier, the Central Bank announced its quest to reduce the use of cash (cash) in the country, due to the challenges of geography and security issues, which make the transfer of cash within the country difficult and risky.
 However, the matter was limited to distributing the salaries of employees and retirees only, and the Central Bank did not implement its policy on the ground in limiting cash circulation. (cache).
individual financial losses
Hussain Al-Khaqani, an economic expert, said that “the spread of sales points will greatly reduce individual financial losses, especially as many citizens who have visited or traveled abroad bemoan the lack of points of sale and credit card readers in markets, fuel filling stations, markets and all merchants. and sellers.” 
Al-Khaqani called for the provision of electronic payment card readers, at all official authorities and shops to collect their debts, such as departments that collect fees, traffic and taxes, for example, malls, large and small commercial markets, taxi drivers, stores selling vegetables and fruits, ovens and restaurants, in order to avoid the citizen dealing with damaged and counterfeit currencies and payment. More than required and greatly reduces the use of paper currency.”
Weak banking culture

Al-Nusairi added in a statement to “Al-Sabah” that “other reasons for the weakness of the spread of dealing in this way are also represented by the lack of knowledge and motivation for the owners of malls or shops. and service.
 Also, the number of credit cards is not commensurate with the number of available points of sale, which number up to 4000 devices, compared to 12 million credit cards .”
Digital Transformation Application
The banking expert indicated that “there are no instructions and legislation obligating the citizen and the service provider to implement digital transformation, use electronic payment methods in shops and gas stations, and pay electricity, water and phone bills, so that cash is not accepted. 
Rather, it is exclusively through cards, in addition to the lack of infrastructure integration. 
Through networking and the use of advanced software, in addition to facilitating the use of Internet services “.

Al-Nusairi stressed the need for government support for the expansion of the use of electronic cash cards, in coordination with the relevant ministries and the central bank .
 As well as automating business and facilitating routine procedures,” he called for “providing incentives for business owners to provide services, provide banking facilities, and reduce tax rates and commissions imposed on the use of pos.   liNK

Samson:  When The State Is Silent About Stealing People’s Money!!!
6th February, 2022 – Books / Dr. Basil Abbas Khudair
Although corruption spreads in Iraq in a way that makes our state at the forefront of the list of countries in which transparency is weak and thefts prevail, we hear from time to time that the state has been able to detect some cases through financial control, the Integrity Commission, Parliament, the judiciary or through the committee. 
 Regardless of the quantity, quality and effectiveness of these measures and the extent of their contribution to the radical treatment of the phenomenon of corruption, they are primarily concerned with money and assets stolen from the state, as if these authorities are concerned with defending the rights of the state and its looted funds in isolation from the rights of citizens, and it is true that the judiciary is concerned with civil cases related to people’s money looted or owed through the courts of first instance or other authorities
But there is an almost missing link, which is the defense of people’s rights and money in their relationship with the private sector, including the banking sector, as there are related matters that have not been resolved for years, and in terms of legal van the Central Bank of Iraq is responsible for regulating this relationship, addressing its violations, and holding perpetrators accountable, based on Banking Law No. 94 of 2004, which did not leave any stray or incoming except and included it in the texts of the articles.
The Central Bank, according to the constitution, has the upper hand in its mandate over the work of private banks in terms of supervision and regulation as well as he enjoys the independence that gives him the right to take all the measures stipulated by law without interfering in his business and affairs by others except to the extent permitted by legislation.
This superiority and independence is supposed to be invested in a way that achieves the goals and reputation of the banking business and provides full protection for the money of all individuals and institutions, as it is the exclusive authority in granting licenses for establishing private banks and supervising their affairs in various fields, and because of these advantages, people have come to deal with private banks with confidence on the basis of their performance is guaranteed by the authority of the Central Bank.
And when we talk about the performance that caused harm to citizens by (lagging) private banks, we do not find, in actual fact, an effect of activating the articles of the law for those private banks that still keep the money of shareholders, depositors and creditors, individuals and companies forcibly without taking procedures that restore rights to its people who are now suffering from injustice
For example, the Al-Warka National Bank, which started violating since 2010 and its creditors did not find the appropriate response from its management or from the Central Bank to return the money to its owners.
The case is in a state of silence far from the knowledge of the ownersRights, and the result is that depositors have not recovered their deposits for more than 12 years. What they hear are promises, to say the least, that they are procrastination and wasting more time. 
It is strange that this bank is still operating in its only headquarters in Baghdad (Al-Mansour) and a number of employees work in it. Those who occupy their time drinking coffee and tea and receive their salaries from the depositors’ money, and they do not allow the depositors to be reviewed and do not answer any questions regarding the exact date for returning the money. ) Because the purchasing capabilities of depositors’ money are decreasing due to inflation rates that increase annually, according to the data of the Ministry of Planning.
And the depositors did not leave a door without knocking it, whether by reviewing the same bank, the central bank, the judiciary, or organizing sit-ins and issuing appeals to the various levels of the state, but all of them did not work. The ears of the depositors were filled with phrases (guardianship, merger, restructuring, capitalization, re-election of the board of directors) and they were frightened by the promises and solutions that were sterile because the most important and most important was not achieved by returning the money, and because we are in a country with working authorities and laws, this problem is supposed to be solved without secrecy.
 Anyone, by taking practical measures to return people’s money and to stop the deadly silence that brought nothing but ruin to the homes of Iraqis, who entrusted this bank with their money and found nothing but to cover it up.
With their money and the bank did not move a finger years ago, and you can imagine the material and immaterial damage from stopping the withdrawal of funds from 2010 until today.  LINK

Final Score: Blue Jackets 3 – Red Wings 2 

Game Summary

The Jackets sluggish starts continued as they had just an awful first 10 minutes of the game. Detroit was all over them with plenty of shots and chances. Thankfully Sergei Bobrovsky came to play and was great making some big saves. Detroit was able to sneak one past and held a 1-0 early. The Jackets shifted momentum on a great shift by the Brandon Saad, Alexander Wennberg, Nick Folingo line. They didn’t score but had a long shift in the Detroit end, which helped the Jackets get their feet under them. 

That shift was a start but it wasn’t until Brandon Dubinsky squeaked one past Petr Mrazek that the Jackets really took off. 




This was a shot from a terrible angle and somehow manages to bounce around and find a way in. Dubinsky isn’t really looking to score on this play just get the puck on net and as the old saying goes, good things happen. Dubinsky is playing better of late; he had three points in this game to give him five points in his last three games and six in his last five. Things are starting to look better for him. 

Cam Atkinson soon followed with his 26th of the season to give the Jackets a 2-1 lead. 




This was a great individual play by Atkinson. He wins the initial race to retrieve the puck and sees the defence have given him a ton of space. He and Dubinsky are each able to make a royal road pass and Atkinson then makes a nifty move to shift by the defencmen and get himself a lane. 

The Jackets had a strong second period with a 60.87% Corsi but the Wings tied the game up on a 5 on 3 goal by Thomas Vanek. Zach Werenski had himself a very impressive showing in the period and the game. The Michigan native is very fond of Joe Louis Arena and was clearly looking to make an impact in his final game at the Joe. He played the second most ice-time in the game at 25:52. He led all players with six shots goal and an incredible 84.85% Corsi at 5 on 5. He was on the ice for 28 shot attempts for and just five against. He was also getting some great scoring chances. 







It’s a shame he wasn’t able to get himself a point in the game. 

The Jackets had themselves plenty of chances in the third but were unable to get anything past Mrazek, so the game went to overtime. 

In overtime Seth Jones was the hero with a rocket of a slap shot. 




Right before this goal Brandon Dubinsky slashed and broke the stick of Henrik Zetterberg, but was not called for a penalty. The Red Wings and their fans were rightfully unhappy. The refereeing in this game was poor all night. Blatant penalties were being missed on both sides and there were inconsistencies all game. That doesn’t excuse the missed call on Dubinsky but this was poorly officiated game across the board and it’s unfortunate they influenced the game like they did.
