Iraq politicians have been complaining about this for years. Well, some of them anyway. $100 million and more, out the window, day in...day out. What they steal in a day could feed, house, comfort thousands of their own citizens. Pathetic.

"in the floating currency"

Floridian, this cought my attention too.

 

Looks like the economic expert is implying the dinar is a floating currency.

 

In my 11 years on this investment I have seen 1164 - 1170 - 1182 - 1190

 

I think we’re just waiting for IMF Art 8 acceptance.

 

just my opinion 

 

Go CBI

Go float

Go supply

Go Demand

Go RV

Go asap

Thanks, Laid Back.

 

They're saying the auctions were a mistake and you can't float the currency and keep the auctions.

I think it will start floating as soon as we get Article 8.

Hopefully, they will give us a good starting point for the float.

all my speculative opinion ... shabibi began the auctions as a tool to help control inflation and financial stability and imo was never meant to be forever his plan was for a open free market economy system and to this day has been stymied the corrupt in iraq used them as a means of theft and a way for iran to gain usd and yup u can guess who put his approval on it the one that put trumped up charges on shabbs to get him out of the way and to arrest many at the cbi ,  i have lost all the articles i had saved from several hard drive failures from when shabbs was cbi gov. back then there was a regular diet of news / info coming from the cbi unlike today when seldom is put out and what is , is generalities with little detail which leads me to think the overall plan hasn't changed much, if at all , it just hasn't been started .

Best i remember the plan was for the currency to enter the market Fixed pegged to a basket of currencies of which the usd was included with only minor fluctuations of 2% every 90 days or so for stability then after a time period allow the market to drive it , im sure those who were following the news back then know what I'm writing and trying to say ... good grief this has been going on a loooong time . Cheers

I believe this is the article you’re talking about, 

Dr. Ahmed Abrehi Ali Introduction:

The dollar is often in the official international reserves and around the world, and thirdly, the adoption of foreign trade of Iraq on the dollar even with neighboring countries and Asia, Fourthly, most countries of the world depend on the dollar to intervene in the market.

In Iraq, the central bank’s window is also operating in dollars, so we call it the currency of the window. , Exchange is called intervention currency

The stabilization of the national currency by a basket of currencies, which is among the world’s exchange-rate regimes, as well as strict or flexible bilateral linkage.

Therefore It is proposed that the dinar be pegged to a basket of major currencies, international reserve currencies, dominant in foreign trade and capital markets, United States Dollars. But Iraq has been used to favoring bilateral ties in its monetary history and to this day. It is no secret to the followers of the argument of bilateral linkage and dollars in particular.

That the source of foreign currency to Iraq is the dollar first, and secondly the dollar is often in official international reserves and about 65 percent in Third, Iraq’s foreign trade depends on the dollar’s currency, even with neighboring and Asian countries, and the fourth most countries depend on the dollar to intervene in the market.

Exchange is called the intervention currency, and in Iraq also operates the window of the central bank in dollars and so we call the currency of the window.

However, it is necessary to interact with the currency basket proposal and to discover patterns of exchange rate movement under this system.

For those interested and decision-makers to consider the performance of this system and how it differs from the bilateral link.

The exchange rate of the dinar linked to a basket of currencies of varying weights:

In this note, a review of the exchange rate of the Euro, Pound Sterling, Yen and Swiss currency against the Dollar since the beginning of 1999.

Then we assumed The Iraqi dinar was pegged to a basket of currencies according to three alternatives to weights between the first of January 1999, the beginning of the euro, and the beginning of the 10th of 2017.

I am feeling the same way. If IMF Art 8 goes so does the dinar. There seems to be a lot of news about getting things done and about using the CC international.
