pokerplayer Posted May 15, 2018 Report Share Posted May 15, 2018 I believe that is when the rule was written as a guideline for the future. You kind of need to read the whole article to get the full gist of it. Hope this helps. pp 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am I missing something when this clock started? 60 days ago, they got the currency into the 2% range. They have to hold it at 2% or less for 90 days. They have 30 days to go. If they can keep it within the 2% range for 90 days, they can then write a letter to the IMF (having met the IMF rules) and ask to be allowed to accept Article VIII. Article VIII allows them to raise their currency. This does not imply they WILL raise the currency in 30 days. It only means they CAN, after they accept Article VIII. 2 1 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
js214 Posted May 15, 2018 Report Share Posted May 15, 2018 Correct, but Article VIII with a HCL is what we are waiting on to a great degree 1 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cranman Posted May 15, 2018 Report Share Posted May 15, 2018 I find it interesting that just because it is Ramadan that no one thinks anything can happen. Life and business still goes in in Iraq during Ramadan. I know we need the formation of a new government and other things to take place over the next few months. If everything was voted on and agreed upon before the elections then the RV would happen as they planned it. The fact that nothing is happening (that we can see) just shows that we have read way too much into what has been reported and interpreting it in our favor. There are so my articles posted here on a daily basis that it is hard to read all of them. By the way good job newshounds! The fact is that a very, very small percentage of them actually say anything about and RV of currency. Mostly it has been about getting the banking system updated and connected to the rest of the world. Certainly good news and shows sign of progress. I hate to think this, but it has been 15 years of the dinar at an extremely low rate. It may stay this for much longer as it seems that the country is working with the dinar at such a low rate. Although it could work much better at a higher rate. Many countries have recently donated billions of dollars to the reconstruction of Iraq. Why do that if the RV is so close. Surely presidents and prime ministers of other countries are privy to information that we are not. They even have there own financial and banking experts to help guide their decision when deciding to help Iraq. I want this to happen like everyone else. I fear that the ride is going to go on much longer that we thought. If it ever stops. Adams silence is deafening. He/ we were all sitting on the edge of our seat a month or two ago. Now Ramadan, new government to be formed and no signs of any thing going to happen with a sense of urgency. Somebody prove my points/ statements wrong and make us all feel better. This was just my opinion (as always). 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goggles Posted May 15, 2018 Report Share Posted May 15, 2018 Thanks for this reminder juliebug. Sounds like even if we had an HCL the RV couldn't happen without Article VIII. This makes me wonder if an RV could happen with the Article VIII and without the HCL. Although the HCL would make a much nicer suitable environment. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laid Back Posted May 15, 2018 Report Share Posted May 15, 2018 - form a new Goverment - wipe out corruption - approve important laws - collect 40 trillions in chunky cash - develop private sector - diversify the economy - the economy is improving at the actual rate of 1184 - IMF SBA ends mid 2019 Dont get me wrong, I would love and RV TODAY but reality is different. Lots of good things happening in Iraq right now but still a lot of work to do. Go RV sooner than later. 3 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was just my opinion (as always). cranman, I feel your pain brother but we really are closer to this thing ending than it seems...I'm not going to try to prove your points are wrong but simply state what the CBI has stated, an by the way, that's who I'm hanging my hat on to make this Dinar RV not the GOI. Remember they have to be in IMF compliance to receive the rest of their 3 billion dollar loan. The governor has stated that the CBI is ready to move forward with the PROJECT. The governor has stated that the CBI will implement the PROJECT when the environment is right. The CBI governor has stated that they are in the IMF 2% compliance. Will the right environment be when the new GOI is seated, I don't know but what I do know is the CBI is ready to introduce the LD's an stop the auctions. The elections in my opinion have nothing to do with the CBI but does make for a lot noise an distraction. I didn't write this post to try to convince you of anything or make you feel better but to simply say to hang in there just a little bit longer... 1 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has to be a secret or the whole world would be trying to buy dinar. "Mostly it has been about getting the banking system updated and connected to the rest of the world." They have to come into the 21st century if they want to be on the world stage. "Many countries have recently donated billions of dollars to the reconstruction of Iraq. Why do that if the RV is so close. Surely presidents and prime ministers of other countries are privy to information that we are not." I'm sure that Presidents, Prime Ministers, and the US Congress all have dinar because they are privy to information. 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
