yota691 Posted January 23, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2019 Despite the crises .. The United Nations expects the growth of the world economy in 2019 22/01/2019 11:09 AM | Number of readings: 82 The United Nations said it expects the world economy to grow 3 percent this year and by 2020 it is slightly below its 3.1 percent growth rate in 2018. But the United Nations said in its annual economic outlook report "The World Economic Situation and Prospects" that there is a need for urgent and concrete policy action to put the world on track towards achieving the United Nations' poverty eradication goals by 2030, according to Reuters. "There are a lot of yellow lights flashing, some of which will probably turn red in the years to come, with unpredictable consequences," said Richard Kozul Wright, director of the UNCTAD Division on Globalization and Development Strategies. "Growth is fragile, there is still a huge blur, risks are on the horizon, we have not gotten rid of the repercussions of the financial crisis in 2008-2009, we are still in an unusual new situation." Employment rates are rising, but job quality remains low, and much higher levels of economic growth are needed in Africa to lift people out of poverty, the report said. More than 700 million people live below the extreme poverty line, set in 2011 at $ 1.90 per day, in purchasing power parity terms, and half in sub-Saharan Africa. "In Africa, there is a need to raise economic growth to double-digit levels to reach targeted poverty reduction rates, well above the growth rates recorded over the last 50 years," the report said. "There are risks associated with slowing growth in Germany and China, the Italian banking system, Britain from the European Union, and the fact that the world economy is still burdened with debt ten years after the global financial crisis. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully, I am proven wrong but I'm not counting on Iraq, to do anything different in my life time. I totally understand your disappointment and frustration. I, as well as everyone on this site feel it too. Truth is we can forget the 8 years when Maliki was PM; he wasn’t going to do one thing correctly for the RV to happen and we can forget the years that ISIS was in control of 1/3 of the country. So, about 11 years totally wasted. I didn’t see any real progress of getting items done to facilitate the RV until the IMF and World Bank stepped in and Abadi became PM. Shoot, when I bought my first Dinar in March, 2010, I was so “lucky” that my certified check arrived at Dinar Trade before the RV!! I have felt for the past several months that it will be at least 2020 before we see the RV. I just don’t see things being accomplished sooner than that. I will be delighted to be wrong and would love for it to happen tomorrow. Even though I totally believe the Iraqi Dinar will RV one day, I don’t think anyone has any idea as to when. Frustrating?? You dang right because I need it and want it before I die or get too darn old to enjoy it. But no guarantee I will get what I want and need. 😏😬 1 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
