Hantoush told Sumaria News, "Some foreign investors and foreign banks have obtained more than 51% of shares in some banks inside [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.], despite the fact that the Companies Law prohibits giving the foreign investor more than 49%."
However, Hantoush reviewed the existence of a "legal loophole" that enabled the Central Bank to grant foreign investors larger shares than stipulated in the Companies Law, noting that Article 107 of Banking Law 94 of 2004 gives the Central Bank's Board of Directors the authority to determine the percentage of foreign investor ownership in banks without being bound by general laws.
He considered that this paragraph is not supposed to mean that the percentage should be more than 50%, but rather that it should be less, but the loophole is that the legal article gave absolute authority without addressing that the percentage should be less or more than 49%.
He explained that "there is no grant in the world of a share greater than 50% except in countries where there is a high circulation of funds, considering them bankrupt countries that do not possess wealth that they fear from the control of foreign banks." He explained that
"according to this strategic mistake, foreign banks were given more than 60% of the shares in banks inside [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.], and today we have begun to observe the fruits of this mistake, when the American side noticed the existence of currency smuggling and trade operations with Iran and [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.], and set conditions for compliance, the Central Bank of [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] failed "And Iraqi banks by applying the standards or the possibility of opening accounts for Iraqi banks in American banks to achieve control and finance their accounts in dollars."

The researcher in banking and economic affairs, Mustafa Hantoush, reviewed today, Sunday, the reasons for foreign banks’ acquisition of the largest percentage of shares in some banks inside Iraq and their acquisition of the currency auction as well, as the strengths of these banks are that they are owned by foreign banks capable of opening accounts easily in accordance with the standards of American banks that supply the dollar.
