However, this trading is not considered an investment, but it is about securing the requirements of the Iraqi family daily.

The task of selecting the Central Bank of Iraq as the sectoral sector supervising the banking sector, he announced that he chose 16 banks, some of which are government and some of the private banks to take over the task, and that the selection process was in accordance with global standards and the level of the bank will be the guarantor of any of these banks May face problems or lag in the fulfillment of its obligations to the extent that he expressed his willingness to pay dues instead of the bank stagnant ».
He stressed the importance of mechanisms and procedures to reassure employees about this new experience which they have not yet mastered. "The presence of ATMs in public markets and important commercial centers, as well as the headquarters of government ministries and departments, is essential for the cardholder to shop for," he said. .
He pointed out that «the experience of the project to settle the salaries electronically is very important», pointing out that «the urgent need to ensure all the requirements for success and the banks to invest this step by improving the performance and diversification of banking services and development, to become more effective in the process of development construction, Banking is one of its main pillars ».
And considered many of the managers of private banks that the localization of salaries of state employees electronically a step bear important implications, which will be reflected positively on the performance of banks in terms of securing liquidity and restore confidence between the citizen and the sector, which has witnessed in recent years the decline reflected the results on the reality of the Iraqi economy, stressing the ability of banks to implement expansion programs The base of its services to citizens in a form that strengthens the investment base of the sector to reflect its results on the financial sector in general.
