Within three days, participants discussed a number of explanatory notes reached, with the participation of Arab investment experts from Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Tunisia, Algeria, Sudan, Iraq, Oman, Palestine, Qatar, Kuwait, Egypt, Morocco and Yemen, and considered it an integral part of the agreement.
The Meeting adopted 5 recommendations that would be submitted to the Economic and Social Council at its next session, contributing to the adoption of the Agreement and the Explanatory Note and the signing and ratification by States that had not yet done so.

The value of these foreign investments is $ 1.5 billion, which should be matched by good annual returns since most of the projects are operational, but after 2003 there were no revenues in the country's budget. She confirmed that the committee followed the details of investments, but the ministries refrain from providing us with any details. She explained that the latest information indicates that some Arab countries began to threaten nationalization of these projects on the pretext that they have debts to Iraq.
And stressed that such investments, if organized carefully and away from the circle of corruption, will be very useful to Iraq, whether projects were established in Arab countries or implemented by the Arab countries in Iraq, and thus we will ensure that we have funds invested by entities able to regulate capital and management, The Treasury is making annual profits.
The head of the Iraqi Fund for Foreign Development, Hussein Jabbar, estimated the size of the funds managed by the Fund in Arab and foreign countries by more than $ 1.5 billion. He pointed to the presence of local bodies seeking to end the work of the Fund, although it is the only external experiment that Iraq keen to make success during the decades The last four.

He added: an amendment was made in the decision of the Fund added to the task of following up the Iraqi investments abroad, which are companies involved by the Iraqi government represented by the Ministry of Finance and contribute to industrial and agricultural companies in a number of Arab and foreign countries. He pointed out that the contribution of the treasury and the return is directly to the Treasury. The process was entrusted to the Foreign Development Fund and continued until 1997.
He disclosed that the current assets of the Fund amount to about $ 1.5 billion, but the figures were not unified due to the fund's capitalization at 200 million dinars. We seek to revalue the assets and have only the proceeds from our external contributions.
He pointed out that the Fund's capital is still fragmented and we are in the process of limiting it. The annual profit rate is between $ 18 million and $ 20 million, while the Fund's costs with the staff exceed $ 1.8 million.
