The guru have always said the supply of the dinar would dry up when the RV/rate change was near...

It's unclear whether the shortage we're seeing now is because of Iraq's change in policy or corona related.


People had no choice.  Since there was no toilet paper available during the CV lockdown they had to use what was available and worthless.  
 

Now everyone is buying more Dinar to replace the ones the had to use. They aren’t doing it to get rich, they are doing it just in case there is another CV lock down.

Clarification on foreign reserves in the Central Bank of Iraq

June 25, 2020

The real financial surplus is the government’s revenue that is represented by the Ministry of Finance, which exceeds its public expenditures during a fiscal year.

Here it is necessary to clarify that the foreign reserves held by the Central Bank are not surplus funds, but rather accumulate as a result of a specific mechanism in which the Central Bank conducts what is called the process of monetization, as the Ministry of Finance sells the largest part of its dollar revenues to the Central Bank with a view to obtaining the Iraqi dinar Issued by the Central Bank of Iraq to implement its domestic spending, and as long as the Central Bank of Iraq adopts a fixed price to exchange the Iraqi dinar against the US dollar, and it seeks through the window of selling the currency to maintain this constant value of the dinar, so the Iraqi dinar holder has a right to foreign reserves, which is a cover for the local currency .

We can refer here to the concept of foreign reserves according to the balance of payments guide and the international investment situation issued by the International Monetary Fund (are the external assets that are at the disposal of the monetary authority and are subject to its control to meet the needs of the balance of financing payments or interference in the exchange markets to influence the exchange rate of the currency, or other Related purposes (such as maintaining confidence in the local currency and forming a basis for external borrowing) and the reserve assets must be assets in foreign currency and assets that already exist, and excluding potential assets.

Comments By MilitiaMan On The Article Above ...

 

:D  :D  :D 

 

 

This is not talking about the program rate we are at now.
It is talking about the future imo.

It is talking about what will be done when the exchange rate is internationally accepted..

It will be a time for them to act accordingly and they give the examples on how they are going to do it.

They will have the ability to defend their new exchange rate as they have tools to or mechanisms to do so.

They will do it in their local currency, hence,

they'll need to defend the new rate with those tools.

They will also monetize their new currency, whereby, it derives an income to help with payments.. 

 

 

This article ought to be one we all smile about..

Because they are not doing this now at a program rate. imo..

They are gearing up to use the tools for a new exchange rate

and it appears they are ready to act on a moments notice.. imo..

This is timed accordingly..

The 60 day time frame the PM mentioned is not about this part of the reforms.

They told us about the border crossings

and adjustments in respect to shipping contracts, taxes, fees, tariffs, etc..

That is to be for 07/01/2020.

I have not seen or heard of them pushing the borders or adjustments out.

In fact it appears with all the articles out the mean to implement on time..

imo. jmtc  ~ MM

Policy 2020/06/27 21:31 381     


Baghdad Today - Baghdad 


The decision of the Finance Committee in Parliament, Ahmed Al-Saffar, confirmed today, Saturday, that the Kurdistan Regional Government has handed over its staff database to the Federal Government in Baghdad. 

Al-Saffar said in an interview with him (Baghdad today), "The technical delegation of the Kurdistan region who visited Baghdad recently handed over the federal government a database of the region's employees at the request of Baghdad in addition to other files."  
And that "the number of employees in the region is estimated at about 753 thousand employees registered within the biometric system in addition to the groups that benefit from social care, martyrs and retirees, the number reaches approximately one million and 250 thousand people." 

He pointed out that "the regional government is working, at the request of Baghdad, to solve the problem of multi-salaries in terms of social welfare, martyrs and retirees."
Yesterday, Osman Karim, the deputy in the Kurdistan Parliament, confirmed on Friday (26 June 2020) that negotiations between the federal government and the regional government are still ongoing and have not reached a dead end.

He added that "Baghdad has many conditions, some of which are inconsistent with the constitution, and this is what finally reached the signing of the comprehensive agreement, but the negotiations were not stopped or were officially announced."

Baghdad - people  

 

The negotiating delegation to the Kurdistan Regional Government, headed by Deputy Prime Minister Qubad Talabani, in Baghdad, on Thursday, held talks with the American and British embassies in Iraq.  

A statement of the provincial government, followed by "people" (25 June 2020), said that "the meeting highlighted the outstanding problems between Erbil and Baghdad, and the latest developments regarding the general situation in Iraq were discussed."  

The delegation of the two embassies said, according to the statement, "their full support for resolving all disputes between the Kurdistan Region and the federal government and facing all the problems that Iraq suffers from with a unified position, especially the risks of the renewed corona virus and the recent movements of ISIS terrorists in the disputed areas."  

The delegation of the regional government is scheduled to hold its last meeting this week with members of the federal government with the aim of reaching a general and common understanding of the outstanding problems between the two sides.

Comments On The Articles Above From MilitiaMan ....... 
 

 

And Not From That Sneaky Super Spreader ‘6ly’ Character ...

 

:D  :D  :D 

 

 

They handed over the database of the employees.
That would cease the multiple salaries and or payments.

This is a deal and it is now accountable from the looks of the signing.

They have their unified position and is all about transparency and accountability.

The fake made up employees are not going to fly anymore..

 

Well they surely wont be getting more than a fair share.

So, this article is on the last day of this week, which is today!! 

This looks to be the comprehensive deal that is done now and what we have been waiting for.. imo!

Love it! imo 

It is timed right before the adjustments to be made at the borders with taxes,

tariifs and fees that will be electronically monitored allocated accordingly..

Wow... The timing is imo HUGE!!

The HCL/2019 FMLA, salaries, etc, is in this ... Wow !! ~ MM
