3rd March, 2022

He added, “The exchange rate change came to remedy the gap between the real value of the national currency and its nominal value.”
Translation ….
The Iraqi Parliament / Office of Representative Soran Omar Saeed M / Question about the dollar exchange rate and money laundering – We show that the information contained in your above letter regarding the (forged) invoices of some banks dates back to earlier dates. The Iraqi judiciary took its measures in a timely manner towards those banks, and the court’s decision was to complain against the banks and close the case for the absence of a crime because the permits submitted by the banks are correct and supported by the outlets. related border.
On the other hand, the instructions of the window for buying and selling foreign currency issued in 2021 obligated all banks participating in the window, to finance foreign trade through documentary credits and foreign transfers, 10 files for each company (Customer) includes, among other things, an endorsement of purchasing the goods or obtaining the service that has been communicated to the final beneficiary, an endorsement that the bank conducts searches, investigations and verification of all parties of remittances.
In addition, the border outlets have to do their duty and endorse the correct invoices. Banks that are proven to have submitted incorrect invoices are formally referred to the judiciary to take legal action against them.
Regarding your inquiry about the possibility of changing the current exchange rate, we would like to clarify that the current exchange rate has many positive results, including reducing the budget deficit, which achieved a surplus in 2021 compared to 2020, and that the fiscal space that was achieved for the Iraqi government as a result of the current exchange rate will help it to its obligations include part of the internal and external debts, which contributes to enhancing financial sustainability, to the fragile classes, and to financing stalled investment projects.
With regard to changing the exchange rate, we would like to point out the following: 10 The exchange rate over a short period of time confuses local markets, threatens investment, creates a strong stagnation and weakens confidence in monetary policy and the value of the local currency, also contributing to the increase in speculation.
The exchange rate change came to remedy the gap between the real value of the national currency (the dinar) and its nominal value, as the dollar was calculated at a low exchange rate, which gives A high competitive advantage for imported goods and services, which prevents the rise of the national product, while raising the exchange rate constituted a barrier to the competitive importer of the national product equivalent to the rate of change in the exchange rate (about 23%).
It is worth noting that the decision to change the exchange rate is a national strategic decision that is not linked to interim conditions, and that the negative results that may have resulted from it, can be avoided by financial and governmental action to support vulnerable groups and improve the ration card and not retract this important decision. With respect. LINK
