    Samson:  Spokesperson for the Prime Minister: The exchange rate will be fixed in the 2022 budget and there will be no change in it
    6th September, 2021
    The spokesman for the Council of Ministers, Hassan Nazim, confirmed, on Monday, September 6, 2021, that the dollar exchange rate will be fixed in the draft financial budget law for 2022 and there will be no change in it.
    Nazim said in a press statement, which was followed by "The Obelisk", that increasing the dollar exchange rate is an idea that has been discussed for years, and the previous government did not dare to take this step because of the risks and controversies surrounding it, and Al-Kazemi's government was bold to take this decision because it is in the interest of the Iraqi economy, and in the economic vision. Reform of the Ministry of Finance, as this idea was presented within the reforms of the white paper and won acceptance and extensive discussion.


    And he continued: The government always takes steps to support goods and materials whose prices have risen, and has developed solutions and taken decisions regarding them. The idea of the dollar exchange rate is not retracted by this government, and I do not think any 2022 budget will change this price, since this government is the one who will set the budget for the next year.
    He pointed out that the government at one period was not reassured of its ability to pay the salaries of employees, but with its policy it crossed this crisis and the increase in oil prices came as a catalyst, and even if oil prices increased, there would be major problems unless there was a wise management of the financial resources coming from export raw.
    He pointed out that there is a kind of rise in the foreign reserve, and there is no abundance as a result of the accumulated deficit, and therefore any financial increase through which the government will try to fill the deficit with it, and we are not talking about existing surplus funds that we park here and there, but rather we are trying, within the white reform paper, to control the economy and make it dynamically developed. 
    MilitiaMan:  A spokes person saying he thinks the exchange rate that harms the citizens is going to be fixed..? I think he his misleading when he says that. Notice he says
     "unless there was a wise management of the financial resources coming from export raw", and  "rather we are trying, within the white paper reform paper, to control the economy and make it dynamically developed.
    1190 nor 1460 was able to make it dynamic. This piece is at best lousy propaganda. Then again, it says unless there is wise management of the financial resources from export raw." Well the white papers are not about a program rate.. imo.. Never were to be either.. imo..  They are about becoming a dynamic market and private sector based economy..  Be careful how things read.. imo ~ MM

    Samson:  Reforming the private banking sector according to the central bank's methodology stimulates the economy
    6th September, 2021 by Samir Al-Nusairi 
    Several months ago, the government issued the white paper, which is the roadmap for the desired macroeconomic reform for the coming years
    The white paper, on pages 56 and 57, identified the main objectives for reforming the banking sector in the medium and long term between 3-5 years, and it is in fact an accurate diagnosis of problems that have already been diagnosed.
    By the Central Bank and the World Bank, and it has already developed solutions and urgent and strategic mechanisms for it, as is clear in the Central Bank’s strategy (2016-2020) and strategic banking projects for the years (2019-2023). The paper focused on the basic objectives of private banking reform, as follows
    First - Pave the way for private banks to take their role as levers of the economy and end the role of government banks as an arm of bank financing
    Second - Addressing defaults in banks, the forced merging of troubled banks, and restoring confidence with the public
    Third - Providing the appropriate environment to encourage banks to lend to stimulate the economy. Practicing the real business and not relying entirely on the currency window, guarantee fees and other banking fees
    Fourth - Completion of the application of international accounting standards (IFRS) and the development of banking work using modern banking techniques
     Therefore, the reform goals were based on detailed diagnoses of the current problems and obstacles that banks suffer from, which stand in the way of achieving the goals of reform. Since the issuance of the white paper, the Central Bank has begun to take measures to reform the banking sector since November of last year, according to its plan based on its strategy for monetary policy applications for that. The Bank issued lending initiatives to stimulate the economic cycle and activate the financing of small, medium and housing projects and to move at a confident pace to move the banking business from the banking role to the developmental role
    The urgent procedures and solutions for banking reform can be identified as I see them as follows
     First – making decisions on financial policy to restore balance between government banks and private banks in terms of capital, activity, and tasks, and focus on starting the structuring of the Rafidain and Rasheed Banks, according to what was stated in agreement with the World Bank several years ago
     
    Second - Through an analytical view of the reality of the Iraqi economy and the challenges facing the fiscal and monetary policies, in particular stimulating and revitalizing the economy with bank financing requires clarity of financial policies and coordination with monetary policy in stimulating the economy
    Third - taking immediate measures to redistribute the banking density of private banks in proportion to the actual need of the Iraqi economy and towards stopping the granting of new licenses to establish new banks, and starting to rehabilitate troubled banks and study the economic feasibility of continuing to work or merging them according to the merger guide issued by the Central Bank in 2019
     Fourth - that the nature of the activities of banks depends on the nature of the activities of other economic sectors, and as long as the economic activity is concentrated in trade (imports), the activity of banks remains focused on external transfer, and this means that the problem of the currency window is not in the dollar supply from the central bank, but rather the reason is the demand for the dollar. Therefore, unless other sectors (industry, agriculture, tourism and others) move, we cannot expect diversification of banking activity
    It is worth noting that without controlling imports, these sectors will not rise, because without support for the domestic product, the demand for the dollar cannot be reduced
    Fifth – It is necessary to provide a legal environment and extend the authority of the law in order to eliminate the phenomenon of default in the repayment of loans, as the non-performing debts amounted to (5 trillion dinars), 70% of which are the debts of government banks and 30% of the debts of private banks, which constitute a large percentage of the total monetary credit granted
    Sixth - Activating the implementation of the decisions of the Council of Ministers and the Economic Affairs Committee in the Council of Ministers, which were previously issued to support the banking sector, in particular private banks, to open accounts for ministries and government departments, accept certified instruments, and open documentary credits to the government in the amount of 50 million dollars without going through the Ministry of Finance and the Iraqi Trade Bank and other decisions concerning borrowing for investment projects, collecting taxes and customs fees, and settling salaries
    Because on the contrary, it will obstruct the work and activities of private banks and greatly affect their liquidity, revenues and deposits, and delay the transition of banks from the role of banking to the developmental role as established in the white paper
    Seventh - Considering the bad debts cases owed by customers in private banks are urgent cases and excellent debts, similar to government debts
    Eighth - Working to provide conditions and take measures to help private banks obtain the internationally approved credit rating, and thus strengthen international banking relations with correspondent banks   LINK
