KTFA:Samson: Basra University organizes a panel discussion on the project to delete zeros from the Iraqi currency
2nd November, 2021
The Department of Economics at the College of Administration and Economics at the University of Basra organized a panel discussion on the project to remove zeros from the Iraqi currency.
The seminar, which was attended by Prof. Dr. Sami Obaid Al-Tamimi and Prof. Dr. Youssef Abdul Ali Al-Asadi, aims to find out the reasons for the deterioration of the value of the Iraqi dinar. At the beginning of the seventies of the last century, one Iraqi dinar was worth more than three US dollars, and today we are at the end of the year 2021 equivalent to more than 1450 Iraqi dinars.
The discussion panel touched on tracking the value of the Iraqi dinar from 1930 to 2021, and the project to delete zeros from the national currency in terms of pros and cons, and finally submitting a scientific proposal to the Central Bank to implement the process of deleting zeros. LINK

Samson: A government source: Security tensions are behind the dollar's rise in Iraqi markets
7th November, 2021
Today, Sunday, a government source attributed the rise in dollar prices in the local markets to the security tensions in the capital, Baghdad.
The source said in an interview with Shafaq News Agency, "What the Kifah Stock Exchange is witnessing now is the lack of supply compared to the demand for the dollar."
He added that "the exchange offices are now keeping the dollars, and citizens have resorted to buying dollars for fear of the current unstable conditions," noting that "the central bank's cash sales, which amount to nearly 50 million dollars per day, have no effect on local markets." He expected that "the coming days will witness a further rise in the price of the dollar in the local markets if these security tensions remain."
It is noteworthy that the price of the dollar rose gradually in the Iraqi markets to reach in the main stock exchange 148,200 dinars per 100 dollars.
