Laid Back Posted November 28, 2018 Report Share Posted November 28, 2018 “cancellation of the dollar in trade with Iraq” The balance of trade tends to be in the favor of Iran, where the value of trade with Iraq amounted to about $ 12 billion in the past, compared to about 700 million dollars for Iraq only. I hope they start using the Iraqi dinar. Go CBI Go Dinar Go RV Go $1:1 Go trade 1 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Bean Posted November 28, 2018 Report Share Posted November 28, 2018 I thought the US gave Iraq an 'exemption' of some kind, to work out details on trade and currency, euro or dinar, etc. 45 days as I remember. Puts it at about December 20th. Just perfect for the CBI to make a switch for the new year. 1 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mammaw Posted November 28, 2018 Report Share Posted November 28, 2018 Interesting posts Yota. Thank you. But I too am wondering how this can actually be pulled off. If someone wants to exchange currency for US Dollar who is to say they have to tell you they are going to spend it in Iran? Now if the bank is going to do business with another business in Iran, they could have some control over what they "electronically" work with in the way of currency. But this doesn't sound feasible to me. IMO. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Laid Back Posted November 28, 2018 Popular Post Report Share Posted November 28, 2018 The CBI is moving from a closed economy to an open market economy. To get there they need to remove exchange control, stop the daily auctions and let the dinar to be subject to the forces of supply and demand. In light of international trade and financial exchanges, Iraq has moved to important regulatory levels in the transition to a market economy, to break the effects of its international isolation, progress in financial services and improve the foreign investment environment, through banking and investment law, the Central Bank Law and amendment of companies law which allows foreign banks to work in Iraq and allows the transfer of capital and currency in a way that serves the openness of Iraq to the world, in the conditions of a central rent economy difficult to understand the liberal market, which nevertheless provided positive opportunities and legal and regulatory promising foundations for Iraqi Business environment . IMF predicted that “Iraq ‘s reserves to reach in 2018 to $ 62 billion, and then rise to $ 91 billion in 2020; as a result of improvement in the conditions of the Iraqi economy and oil exports and its derivatives and sufficiency of imported electricity for some provinces and gas export and promotion of tourism, industry, and all of which are promising economic resources. Go Open market economy Go supply and demand Go dinar real value 4 2 16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donziman Posted November 29, 2018 Report Share Posted November 29, 2018 Dinar Davo is correct. The auctions are selling 160 to 170 million dollars per day. Most of this goes to the underground pipe line supporting iran and their terrorist groups. Dollars given to tourist is a tiny little amount in reality 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SocalDinar Posted November 29, 2018 Report Share Posted November 29, 2018 Iraqi central bank bans citizens from taking dollars into Iran Ali Larijani, speaker of the Iranian parliament, is seen at the Iran-Iraq border By bne IntelliNews November 28, 2018 The Central Bank of Iraq on November 28 sent out a memo to banks and bureaux de change banning the selling of US dollars to Iraqi citizens looking to travel across the border to Iran. Iraq is in a precarious situation in that it needs to balance the competing demands of Iran—Iraq remains Iran’s biggest export market—and Washington when it comes to following the heavy sanctions regime reimposed on Tehran by the US. Whether the dollar move is backed up with enough enforcement to make it more than a formality, designed to encourage the Americans to relent in other sanctions areas, remains to be seen. After the US triggered sanctions against Iran’s energy and banking sectors on November 5, Baghdad successfully obtained a 45-day waiver allowing it to continue importing Iranian gas. Iraq will likely apply to US Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) for an extension of the exemption. The sanctions aimed at neighbouring Iran have already substantially hurt the Iraqi economy. A document issued by the Iraqi central bank and obtained by bne IntelliNews states that the US dollar must not be provided to those stating an intention to travel to Iran. An alternative currency is to be provided. Iraq and Iran have previously said that they would use the euro and Iraqi dinar for bilateral trade to avoid secondary sanctions from the US hitting Baghdad. The document referred to an announcement of the president of the Iranian Chamber of Commerce on the cancellation of the use of the dollar in trade with Iraq. Harsh economic attack The Trump administration is conducting a harsh economic attack on Iran, throttling it with unprecedentedly tough sanctions to try to pressure Tehran to come to the table to renegotiate its Middle East policies and activities, particularly in conflict zones. Iraq, meanwhile, is enjoying a growing place for its products on the Iranian market given the difficulties producers in Iran are having in importing raw materials in the face of the sanctions. Looking at trade flowing the other way, Iraq imported some $6bn of Iranian goods—from air conditioners to agricultural products to car parts—in the year to March, amounting to around 15% of its overall imports last year. Much of the trade is conducted by private Iraqi companies said to have limited exposure in and to the US, and its financial system, and therefore not overly anxious about being sanctioned. On November 21, Iran announced that smuggled goods with a value of at least $12bn flowed into and out of Iran during the 2017/2018 Persian calendar year (ended March 21). http://www.intellinews.com/iraqi-central-bank-bans-citizens-from-taking-dollars-into-iran-152759/ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
