SgtFuryUSCZ Posted March 29, 2016 Report Share Posted March 29, 2016 ***/// IMF & UN told them to get their financial & fiscal house in order... they MUST track currency smugglers, large transactions and movement of currency which could indicate criminal acts - including, but not limited to - financing terrorism, bogus auctions, graft / corruption ... If they had this in place back in the day, the evil maliki would be more near a pauper right now. And, of course, they'll want to catch whoever is haulin' all those IQD's to the US and "pumpin" 'em to gullible Gringos ! . 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BJinMontreal Posted March 29, 2016 Report Share Posted March 29, 2016 Up here (GWN) and perhaps down south (USoA) the banks are supposed to have forms filled if you're withdrawing more than $10,000 ... maybe they're finally starting to realize a little accountability is needed. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bama Girl Posted June 16, 2016 Report Share Posted June 16, 2016 I suspect this has something to do with the AML that the IMF and World Bank pushed Iraq to pass. Jmo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Synopsis Posted June 16, 2016 Report Share Posted June 16, 2016 3 minutes ago, Dinarian64 said: Looks to me like they are trying to control the number of dollars leaving the country I was thinking the same thing. Other articles are stating the corruption is being cleaned up at the Iraqi banks that deal directly with the Iraqi citizens and measures are being taken to bolster confidence that banks are a safe place for Iraqis to deposit currencies. Possibly, corrupt characters or law abiding Iraqis are/were taking funds out of the country via personal carrying of the funds and depositing them into foreign bank accounts that drains the potential for the Iraqi banks to support liquidity. I suspect legally and liquid Iraqi bank transactions and loans would greatly enhance the liquidity and bolster the Iraqi economy. With all the personal loans granted/to be granted, I suspect Iraq doesn't want the loan monies to leave the country and for all the loan monies to be plugged into the Iraqi economy. Just my thoughts/opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
