rcookie (Dinar Guru) –   Article  “Jubouri: 70 laws will be presented at future meetings .. and near terminate the membership of absentees”   SO… JABOURI TELLING US MORE THAN 70 LAWS CUED UP AND READY FOR VOTE.  YOU THINK PARLIAMENT IS GOING TO BE BUSY THIS WEEK.

rcookie (Dinar Guru) –    THINK ABOUT THIS RELEVANT TO WHAT WE HAVE IN THE RECENT 2 WEEKS REGARDING THE FOCUS ON RESTRUCTURING CAPITALIZATION WITHIN BANKING SECTOR TO THE TUNE OF 200-400% IN BANKS OF ALL SIZES…NOW…NOT TO BEAT A DEAD HORSE…BUT…AGAIN…THE RECRUITMENT… ACQUISITION AND RETENTION OF FOREIGN INVESTMENT AND BUSINESS INTO IRAQ WAS POSSIBLE WITHOUT THESE TYPES OF FINANCIAL AND ECONOMIC UNDERPINNINGS…1 YEAR…3 YEARS…5 YEARS AGO EXACTLY HOW…JUST A HINT…THEY WERENT…NOT EVER…EVER…EVER…   [post 2 of 2]

rcookie (Dinar Guru) –   Article quote:  “The workshop aims to identify the credit risk mitigation, and understand how banks calculate the capital to be allocated to address market risks, and how to calculate standard techniques LCR and NSFR liquidity by the Basel III requirements, as well as understand how conduct stress tests for all types of risk.”    SO THIS BASEL III WORKSHOP IS BEING HELD IN SYRIA JULY 25TH-28TH…THAT COVERS THE MEASUREMENT… MONITORING AND MANAGEMENT OF RISK SYSTEMS IN ACCORDANCE WITH BASEL III REQUIREMENTS RIGHT DOWN TO PRESSURE TESTING SYSTEMS…AND CAPITAL ADEQUACY RATIOS AND WEIGHTING SYSTEMS TO CREDIT RISKS WITHIN THEIR MARKETS WITH ICAAP STANDARDS (INTERNATIONAL CAPITAL ASSET ASSESMENT PROCESSES)…  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

tlm724 (Dinar Guru) –   Article:  “Iraq moves to Turkey after refusing inclusion of the marshes in the World Heritage List” …it looks like France, Turkey and Iran had objections to the Iraqi marshes being included on the list.  France looks like they may be ok with it and they can negotiate with Iran but Turkey is gonna be a problem…first off as we all know Turkey is in a bad way as of today, too much uncertainty and its a power thing with this water.  [Guru] BondLady explained in a desert region water is like gold and Turkey controls the spigot that lets water flow to Iraq.  I pray they can work this out! The marshes are critical to civilization and must be preserved and nurtured.

wmawhite (Dinar Guru) –    bottom line is; look around the region and ask …”when Iraq is compared to the other countries and their GDP is the true value of Iraq reflected in their currency at $0.00086?” Simply; No. And this is why Iraq does not use it and that there are obstacles preventing it from being used as Citibank stated. IMO, when those obstacles are removed and the movement of the IQD is freed, IMO the CBI will move the value of the IQD to reflect its true value.
______________________________________________________________

mike (Dinar Guru) –   Article:  “Moody’s credit rating: Iraq’s agreement with the International Monetary Fund will reduce its budget problems”   I think Iraq has a ways to go to improve their credit rating with Moody’s.  What is a ‘Sovereign Credit Rating’:   “A sovereign credit rating is the credit rating of a country or sovereign entity. Sovereign credit ratings give investors insight into the level of risk associated with investing in a particular country and also include political risks. At the request of the country, a credit rating agency will evaluate the country’s economic and political environment to determine a representative credit ratingObtaining a good sovereign credit rating is usually essential for developing countries in order to access funding in international bond markets.”  While I do believe things are and will get better in Iraq, they have to get Parliament to a functional state passing the needed legislation for economic advancement and political cohesion. Making payments to the Paris Club and the Kuwaiti’s would also be a good thing.
______________________________________________________________

tlm724 (Dinar Guru) –   Article quote:  “The illegal border crossings and projects revenue project Sakona most prominent on the agenda of the Commission’s new legislative term.”  yep they gotta secure those borders, stop illegal crossing and collect tariffs!   It’s all part of the security and revenue plan and is part of the security Shabibi said was needed…wink!

Poppy3 (Dinar Guru) –    …ALL THE NEWS IN THE WORLD ABOUT POLITICS IN IRAQ NEVER HELP ANY OF US GET CLOSER TO THE REAL RV.  I BEEN AT THIS LONGER THAN MOST AND I ASSURE YOU THE NEWS GETS US NO CLOSER TO ANYTHING…ONLY ACTIONS ON THE NEWS IS WHAT COUNTS.   90% OF THE NEWS WAS NEVER ACTED ON TILL HERE IN THE LAST FEW MONTHS BUT FOLLOW THE ACTIONS AND YOU’LL HAVE A REASONABLE IDEA ABOUT THE REST OF OUR WAIT.
______________________________________________________________

Frank26 (Dinar Guru) –   …it is very important that you understand the United States and Kuwait government devalued the Kuwait currency down to zero, practically nothing…and Saddam Hussein was the reason…so America comes in…and the first thing that we did was Marshall Law…and we took over the banking structure…In other words everything I’m telling you is the equivalent…and it is happening in Iraq…with very slight differences…using the American dollar until they were ready to bring back the Kuwait dinar…back to the international rate…with these loans they will quickly remove anything that is left as a remainder of Article 8…once they do qualify and all of Article 8 is removed…MO…all they need to do is raise the value of their currency…and that is it…that should be the final restriction…
______________________________________________________________

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –   #16 is the most important..  “16.  The authorities will gradually remove remaining exchange restrictions and multiple currency practice…”  ...if the CBI does this..and I say “If” (because they have not so far), it will create momentum on the economy and more importantly on the dinar to appreciate in value.  This is what we want to see…an open banking system with the world, no exchange restrictions, Article VIII, etc. etc.   Once that happens, Iraq will become a vary exciting place to invest and the currency will rise in value.    We just have to wait for them to get their act together. [Post 2 of 2]
______________________________________________________________

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –  Press Release:  “Iraq : First and Second Reviews of the Staff-Monitored Program and Request for a Three-year Stand-By Arrangement…”    …this report is full of what Iraq needs to do to improve it’s economic and banking performance.  There is no discussion about currency reform (and I would not expect it).  That being said, it needs to happen and we don’t know when it will.  But it is good to see so much of what we said needs to happen in the SBA, ie laws, remove restrictions etc.  I also like they are doing everything they can to hold the dinar at the current exchange rate (peg) during this difficult time (even though many called for the CBI to devalue the dinar).  [Post 1 of 2]

Stryker (Dinar Guru) –   [We don’t hear about HCL much anymore is that something that you think is necessary for the RV to happen?]   …no the HCL isn’t needed right now because it is covered in each years budget until a final HCL can be adopted, that’s why we don’t hear much about it anymore. Oil revenue disbursement, who pays contractors, power sharing on contracts and so on are all covered in each years budgets and are negotiated starting this time each year for the following years budgets. A permanent HCL will come in time.

tman23 (Dinar Guru) –   What we know for a fact…and for the very first time in Iraq… The Big Banks in all regions are communicating with the CBI and the rate when the rate fluctuates 127,000 or 127,500...it is the same at the same time in these major banks… this started this week and has been consistent enough to say they are on CBI protocols now
______________________________________________________________

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –   Quote:  “…the Iraqi Dinar ‘investment opportunity’ is a scam that has existed for more than a decade and has regained some of its former popularity…”  Surely, the concept of  “overnight” riches so often stated…makes this by definition a scam. That said, the potential for Iraq laid out in various documents including the IMF, WB etc. clearly show the upside potential for Iraq, which if achieved, would increase the value of the currency significantly. We just have to wait for that potential to come to fruition.  There is nothing “to get to the bottom of,” it’s already well documented.

Frank26 (Dinar Guru) –    Abadi is keeping his promise…the IMF gave Iraq certain loans already…they are now ready to give them an international loan…that is a completely different story…first remove all the restrictions on your currency then we will give you these loans…the big one…it is the big international loan that is now waiting to be given to them and it is in the billions… the IMF is pointing the finger straight to Parliament…telling them..you want these loans…finish the reforms…finish the Monetary Reform…so IMO…Iraq is removing the final restrictions on the exchange rate…because they are Article 8 compliant IMO…and we sit very quietly waiting for them to announce this to you…you see the evidence from 500 IQD notes and 250 IQD notes…and you will see more soon.  [post 2 of 2]

I can see Sadr now standing up on his soap box denouncing the government for this act.   At every turn they do everything they can to not pass the laws, open up the economy and get the currency internationally recognized.  Instead, they float bonds, borrow money from the IMF, tax imports and now they’re talking about increasing taxes on the citizenry.  This ain’t the right direction Iraq.

IMF calls on the Government of Abadi to achieve reforms in exchange for loans

BAGHDAD / News Network – Iraq and the IMF agreed on Saturday to give Iraq a line of credit worth $ 5.34 billion to help it overcome the financial crisis faced after the deterioration of oil prices and the war against Alarhab. ooodh Fund said in a statement, that the Iraqi government will take place in case a loan an initial value of $ 634 million, while it must implement a series of economic reforms to get the rest of the installments of this assistance plan for three years.

The statement quoted Zhou Min, one of the assistant directors of the Fund, as saying: “Iraq’s economy has suffered severely from the double trauma of the organization of the Islamic state and severe attacks decline in oil prices.” Fund expressed in his statement expressed concern about the arrears, especially the “big” accumulated on Baghdad, which is struggling to meet its financial obligations.

The fund was granted in Baghdad in July 2015 a loan of $ 1.24 billion to help the advancement of the public own finances. Under the previous rapid financing tool program.
Iraq is going through a financial crisis due to falling oil prices, which constitutes 90% of the public budget is paid to borrow from the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank and earned them about $ 15 billion received by over three years…
