The bank said that this increase will contribute to financing economic development projects, increasing local production and reducing unemployment by providing job opportunities, as well as contributing to supporting various government efforts to confront climate change.
It is noteworthy that the investment portfolio of the Central Bank of Iraq represents a real support and a catalyst for economic growth along with the various government efforts.

The Governor of the "Central of Iraq" Mustafa Ghaleb Mikheib confirmed, earlier, that "the Bank played a major role in moving the wheel of the economy and its progress, as our development initiatives, which exceeded 17 trillion dinars, targeted active and vital sectors, including all segments of society and its categories."

Al-Nusairi considered that building this sector on scientific foundations with the use of modern technologies and reliance on the best national expertise contributes greatly to the development and investment program, as it is the first financing link for small, medium and strategic projects during the past years until the present.
He pointed to the efforts made to support and stimulate the economy through rational use of monetary policy tools, safe investments, and flexible and balanced applications with the complex economic problems that Iraq has suffered and suffer from, the effects of economic closure, stagflation and changes in the global economy, especially the food and energy crises, the Corona pandemic, the war on terrorism and the Russian-Ukrainian war.
