The estimated money supply issued in the Iraqi street, with 30 trillion dinars to the various groups, while the number of securities traded, according to official statistics of the Central Bank about four trillion paper money is the product of a long period of inflation and Altdhoralaguetsada.

According to the CSO, also, those money supply contributed to raise the index of consumer prices foundation in 1993 from 100 dinars to 200,000 in 2003, and this means that goods and materials that were being sold for 100 dinars became sold for 200,000 dinars, and under this circumstance and the deterioration of the currency value category increased currency at the time the largest of 25 to 25000 dinars, thousand dinars, and this means that inflation is adding those zeros.

And this payment Thuwaini to say that changing the currency and delete zeros contribute to the reduction of the process of dollarization in domestic economic activity, especially with the release of large segments of the local currency, as well as check easily in the process of exchange or convert the currency with other currencies, and in exchanges of capital in the balance payments and budget.

And created the money supply massive Iraqi funds many problems in the final accounts of banks and government departments in general, that the figures the enormous which is not without in many cases, cases of errors and omissions due to the large number of zeros which may be used in those accounts, and sees Thuwaini that the deletion of the zeros from the currency will ease the burden on the banking system and financial in order to reduce the amount of the money supply in the financial market and monetary.
