A member of the Finance Committee, Hossam al-Aqabi, on Wednesday revealed some of the conditions of the World Bank, which was included by the government in the draft bill of the budget of 2018, noting that the government stressed the need to abide by these conditions.

“The draft law of the budget of 2018, sent by the government to parliament a few days ago, has obligations on the conditions of the World Bank and these obligations is the need to pay the government’s foreign and internal and confirmation of the commitment with rounds of licenses for companies operating in the oil fields,” he said. That “many of the observations of the World Bank did not see them because the meetings are held only between the government and the World Bank without the entry of the House of Representatives as a party in these meetings.”

He added that “there is a confirmation in the financial budget law on the commitment of ministries to collect their revenues concerned some fees and services as well as revenues obtained by the non-oil revenues, which are collected through taxes and customs.”

 Delta (Dinar Guru) –   …it looks like for some reason they moved that celebration date we were all interested in last week at that time...It looks like they had stuff to finish and make sure everything was good…And moved it to this coming week…all these different countries are going to come down and…the big celebration is on Saturday…about 100 countries, other nations coming down so this is not only the liberation I do believe it’s all about timing…he makes that announcement that they are fully liberated then he is going to go into the economic and monetary reforms.  Abadi…wants to show to the world…we’re done. And the nations are waiting for that…because remember the Prime Minister…the leader of a nation comes out internationally and gives basically that speech that will give more confidence for investors.  …we don’t see any negative things…from the CBI…he said all the preparations are underway so when they make the decision it’s going to be easy to flip the switch and the numbers are right there internationally.  So it’s all great and good information.

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) –   …over in Iraq, we have a little more news than usual this week! It’s being rumored (some confirmed sources, some… not so confirmed) that there is a legitimate push to introduce new currency notes, presumably in smaller denominations. That’s not something you do unless you can establish a need for those smaller notes, which of course requires a stronger exchange rate.  The Budget is likely to be finalized in February. I know that’s an eternity for some of us, but that’s the buzz.  Unfortunately, I have nothing to report on the HCL. I’m hearing rumors, but nothing confirmed..

G-Lin (Dinar Guru) –   Article:  “The Central Bank strengthens banks in local currencies of small groups”   Quotes:  “…the printing of the Iraqi currency and replace them cost amounts,” calling on citizens to maintain and maintain Bank notes when trading.”  “the Central Bank has announced a tender for the printing of new banknotes (small categories) in the printing companies of the world.”  Is this the beginning of distribution of L.D.’s?  If so, they did it last month.  It just doesn’t make sense to me for CBI to go to the expense of printing 1000’s and 500’s based on today’s value unless they intend to give them a higher value. It cost more to print them than they are worth. Of course they wouldn’t tell us if they distributed anything smaller. That would tell us too much.

G-Lin (Dinar Guru) –    Abadi has a ridiculously tough job and I don’t think he can do it alone. Amal Clooney has appeared before the U.N. several times begging Abadi to sign a simple doc. that would open Iraq up to the I.C.C. and to my knowledge he has not cooperated yet. Parl. probably has him handcuffed. So frustrating. The I.C.C. has all of the docs. on Maliki and many more and interpol could issue arrest warrants immediately. Maliki and Barzani are too powerful and charges must be brought up in the international courts. Curtailing Iran’s influence is no easy task. I did read yesterday where Russia is giving some resistance to Iran and the Gulf summit will be held in Kuwait next week. Results of that summit may be fruitful

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) –   We all should know by now currency reform is a process. Currency reform like we want to see requires stability, implementation of technology, and planning.  From what I am reading, progress has been made in recent weeks with the new CBI law, anti money laundering, electronic banking.  But this takes time to implement and activate.  Not to mention the CBI still has work to do to be in compliance with the IMF.  The good news is the CBI is pushing forward on reforms, have banking events scheduled next month, next year.  With all this known, hopefully we will see changes in the next few months to perpetuate the banking system and encourage investment
