Don961: The Central Bank clarifies about the dollar's arrival at 160,000 dinars, because it is the real price
8 hours ago
Deputy Governor of the Central Bank of Iraq, Ihsan Shamran Al-Yasiri, revealed, Tuesday, that "the World Bank has proposed to Iraq to amend the exchange rate of the dollar to 160 thousand dinars per 100 dollars as it is the real price, stressing the need to improve the ration card items to reduce the damage caused by adjusting the exchange rate
Al-Yasiri said in a statement followed by NRT Arabia , (April 13, 2021), that "one of the demands of the World Bank during the negotiations to raise the exchange rate of the dollar is to reform the public financial departments, which are taxes, customs, levies and financing part of the financial savings achieved for the benefit of the vulnerable classes," stressing that " The need to improve the ration card items to reduce the damage caused by adjusting the exchange rate
Al-Yasiri added, "It is possible to improve the ration card items by fighting corruption, and to reduce the waste of Iraqi money in corrupt deals, because most of the ration items are national production, such as rice, sugar, flour, oil and tomato paste
He pointed out, "The government can invest the initiative to adjust the exchange rate through more support for the local industry and agriculture after it obtained a competitive advantage of more than 23% against the importer of products, and thus the importer is facing difficulty in competing with the local product
Al-Yasiri explained, "The World Bank suggested to the Central Bank of Iraq to amend the exchange rate of the dollar to 160 thousand dinars per 100 dollars, as it is the real price that the local market can settle on compared to neighboring countries," indicating that "the central bank, through its study of the market and the living situation, found The current value of the exchange rate is 145,000 suitable, and has actually achieved the desired results in monetary policy LINK
DocMagee94: So...math: at the quoted rate of 145,000 IQD per 100 USD, that would mean that 1 IQD is equal to 0.00069 USD. (100/145,000 = 0.00069). Dropping the 3 zeros at this rate would put the value of the IQD at 1 IQD = 0.69 USD. Going further, at this rate, 1IQD = 0.69 USD, each of your 25,000 IQD notes would be worth $17,250 USD.
Iobey777: Also, IMO, once they are in the ME basket, their rate will need to be equal to or competitive with the other countries! Ex: Kuwait rate is over $3.30... I believe that Iraq’s basket/floating rate will/ could start at the $3+ range! Did I say all IMO?!!!
Ryan1216: Afternoon all. The articles look great today but Iraq needs to show action by revealing the new rate now. I know the Iraqi citizens are just as fed up as we are. It's go time! Let's go CBI!

Don961: Europe is heading towards a new financial crisis
European Union Arab and international Economy News - Baghdad
Europe is struggling to contain the COVID-19 pandemic. But it is preparing itself for another crisis, which is a financial crisis. Europe is in trouble. To ensure the viability of the common currency at the core of the European project, EU leaders will have to cooperate in the ways they have so far resisted. Europe is in trouble.
The adoption of a single currency for the European bloc has yielded significant benefits such as barrier-free trade and improved global competitiveness, among others. But the euro has also forced member states to abandon independent monetary policies that could help support national debt and financial systems.
One consequence is that distress in banks represents an increasing threat to the finances of individual governments - and vice versa - the so-called "doom circle" that appeared amazingly during early 2010, when the eurozone nearly disintegrated.
Missing solidarity
In 2012, European leaders agreed on what should have been a large part of the solution. They envisioned a complete banking union, where governments have a shared responsibility to supervise financial institutions, and the most important thing is to dismantle or recapitalize banks when necessary, and to safeguard depositors' money.
But progress has been very slow. Although the European Central Bank now oversees the largest banks in the region, individual governments still bear the cost of the bailouts, as bailouts in Italy and Germany have shown. Still, mutual deposit insurance is little more than a proposition.
The pandemic has exacerbated the problem, as governments take on more debt in their efforts to provide an economic bailout. The International Monetary Fund estimates that general government debt in the eurozone will exceed 98% of GDP by the end of 2021, up from 84% at the end of 2019.
Worse, the financial liabilities of individual countries are piling up on the balance sheets of their banks. At the end of February, Italian banks' holdings of Italian government debt amounted to 124% of their capital and loss reserves, making them extremely vulnerable in the event of financial hardship.
Regardless of the financial risks they represent, these sovereign exposures make the task of achieving a banking union politically difficult. Northern countries, such as Germany, for example, are unwilling to sign up to mutual deposit insurance if that means supporting Italian banks' excessive holdings of Italian public debt.
For their part, governments of heavily indebted countries are concerned that restrictions on bank holdings may leave them unable to borrow, when they should.
Deposit insurance necessities
But there is a way forward. To push banks toward diversification, the European Central Bank could allocate a "safe portfolio" for government debt that corresponds to member states' shares in the region's GDP (an idea originally proposed by German Finance Minister Olaf Schultz, and developed by Luis Jaricano, an economist and member of the European Parliament) . Any variation will necessitate an increase in capital requirements.
This would address northern European countries ’concerns by giving banks an incentive to reduce local government exposure. At the same time, it will relieve the pressure that could have been imposed on heavily indebted governments. The decrease in Italian banks 'holdings of government debt could be at least partially offset by increases in other banks' holdings.
This step will pave the way toward a banking union in itself. European leaders should go further, and they should significantly upgrade the "Single Decision Council", providing it with the powers and resources to take over, liquidate, or recapitalize banks anywhere in the eurozone, and compensate depositors - just as a deposit insurance company does. Federalism in the United States. To make the mutual insurance fund more politically acceptable, it could be designed initially as a support to national funds.
During the pandemic, European leaders have been ready to deepen their cooperation, most notably in pooling financial resources to support the most affected EU economies. And with increasing urgency, the same logic applies to severing the link between the health of banks and the solvency of national governments. Until this is addressed, the single currency system in Europe is a seriously unfinished business. Source: Bloomberg LINK
