Institutional performance update


Sunday 05 July 2020

In the midst of the government's tendencies and within its plan for administrative reform to make possible changes to public administrations in state institutions and replace them with specialized technocrats that fall within the concept of modernizing institutional performance and address the imbalance that has caused the root of corruption and management chaos.


Here we believe that the campaign to change public administrations, especially the failed ones, is not sufficient to achieve improved performance or its modernization. Rather, three essential elements are required which are among the requirements for modernization, namely the modernization of the regulatory and legislative environment, qualification of human resources, and improvement of the work environment.

When that is possible, we can achieve the required administrative reform, and here the performance of the middle staff must be updated according to the position of the right man in the right place.

Focus on important links for any institution, especially in the financial, accounting and legal aspects, and check their information by conducting training and qualification courses and subjecting them to professional tests related to their specializations in coordination with universities, colleges and expert homes, in addition to this, speeding up the modernization of the legislative environment in a way that does not act according to the mood of the departments using the appropriate legislation in view Many laws intersect before and after change and exploit it for personal interests.

The third condition is to provide a clean work environment based on respect for time, good behavior and love of the profession.

There are those who believe that these procedures need time. We say yes and it is, but they are among the basics for achieving institutional performance modernization and proper reform.

We need to establish the content and objectives of governance; Which means good management, and this program can be achieved through the proposed qualification courses.

Here it must be noted that the world's rapid trends towards the digital economy and management governance that require interaction with the digital transformation through the adoption of electronic transactions and the abolition of paper handling and record keeping will be a new challenge for new departments.

It is necessary to pay attention to the fact that this digital transformation will reflect on the volume of employment in state institutions with a negative impact compared to the suspicious unemployment rates that the country suffers from and which escalate directly with the size of universities expansion and the acceptance of all middle school graduates without regard to the rate. Add to this unemployment resulting from the use of e-management .

Here, those who tackle institutional modernization must realize that dependence on the private sector is inevitable to absorb the largest proportion of the unemployed. And perhaps whoever says that this approach is within the responsibility of the sovereign decision-makers, we say yes definitely and my reference only to remind that all public administrations were against this role of the private sector and also hinder its implementation, so I said the new departments should realize this fact to be encouraging, supportive and not hindering the role of the private sector In the future, it is true that this opinion came hastily and crammed into this column, but I preferred to raise it in advance so that the administrations would not be surprised by what matters will lead to in the alphabet of administrative reform in the era of digital development. We return to this topic in later columns.

Member of Parliamentary Finance Committee MP Mohammed Al-Darraji confirmed today, Sunday, that the reason for the delay in the salaries of employees (especially after the approval of the borrowing law) will not be the non-transfer of currency, because liquidity is available with the Central Bank and has transferred the required amounts to the main banks and salaries must be released Tomorrow or after it

%D9%86%D9%81%D8%B7-11-696x435.jpg
 
 
4th July, 2020

 

On Friday, experts at Capital Economics expected that Brent crude prices would rise to $ 60 a barrel by the end of 2022 from their current levels of $ 42.

These expectations come despite the slowdown in demand for crude oil in light of OPEC + cuts.

Experts at the bank indicated that it is likely that oil prices will not rise quickly, and that recovery in demand for crude oil will be slow, especially with the increase in the numbers of infections with the Corona virus again, which may raise concerns about a second wave of the virus

Al-Nusairi invites the Prime Minister to meet with private banks and address obstacles to their contribution to overcoming the economic crisis

21786.jpg
 

5th July, 2020

 

The Economic and Banking Adviser to the Association of Iraqi Private Banks, Samir al-Nassiri, called on Sunday, the Prime Minister to meet with Iraqi private banks similar to his meeting with Iraqi businessmen for the purpose of discussing the obstacles to their work and their contribution to overcoming the economic crisis because without a sound and sound banking sector, no sound national economy can be built

Al-Nusairi said in an interview with "Al-Iqtisad News", that "Prime Minister Mustafa Al-Kazemi and the emergency cell for financial reform do not hide the complicated economic conditions and repercussions of the spread of Corona virus, political disputes and conflicts by the political parties and blocs that led to great harm to the national economy and stalled the economic cycle and economic stagnation Added to this are the accumulations and repercussions in the absence of a clear economic approach to previous governments, foggyness, and confusion of vision for real economic reform. And since the banking sector is the main link in the economic process, the current conditions have contributed to stopping the banking activity, especially the private banking activity since the outbreak of the demonstrations in October 2019, and so far, which has had clear effects on the lack of liquidity, low deposits, credit, loans and banking facilities due to the stop of working hours.  During the comprehensive roaming ban for more than 30 days and reducing the permanence and banking activity during the partial curfew, which led to a significant decrease in revenues, despite the many measures taken by the Central Bank in providing several facilities package for banks, including enhancing its liquidity by reducing the percentage of the legal reserve, postponing loan installments, stopping and postponing the imposed fines On the banks

"According to the analysis of official data and statistics, the structure of the Iraqi banking sector consists of 7 government banks that hold 86% of all government and public deposits and 78% of all assets and private banks constitute 70 commercial and Islamic banks and invest 78% of the capital of the Iraqi banking sector and did not get Only on 13% of the total annual profits achieved at the total level and that the goals set for the banking sector in all government programs of previous governments are focused on achieving them is lending for development and considering banks as a lever for development and restoring confidence with the public and achieving financial inclusion in the sense of expansion and spread by providing banking products and services and practicing Real banking and digital transformation of the banking sector

The financial and banking advisor explained, "Through an analytical view of the reality of the Iraqi economy and the challenges facing the financial and monetary policies, in particular the stimulation and revitalization of the economy by bank financing and banking facilities, the above challenges stand in front of its implementation at the present time despite the great efforts made by the Central Bank since 2016 to implement its strategic objectives for the years (2016-2020) which achieved such goals task and key notably developments structural and structural and technical in banks and increase the proportion of comprehensive financial and investment in Ras capital human and walk pace actively towards stability In the monetary system and achieving stability in the exchange rate since 2018 and still remains, however, private banks are in urgent and urgent need of government support by studying their problems in the current circumstance in the emergency cell for financial reform formed in the cabinet for the purpose of saving some private banks from collapse

....Al-Nassiri suggested the following

 First-that the nature of the activities of banks depends on the nature of the activities of the sectors of economic, and as long as the activity of economic is concentrated in the trade (imports) remains the activity of banks concentrated on the conversion external and associated so ..lma unless moving sectors other (industry, agriculture, tourism and others) do not expect the diversity of activity The banker

It is worth noting that without controlling imports, these sectors will not rise, which explains the lack of progress on serious loans through the Central Bank initiative to finance small and medium projects

Second, the legal environment must be provided and the rule of law should be extended in order to eliminate the phenomenon of defaulting in the repayment of loans, as bad debts amounted to (5 trillion dinars) up to 30 June 2020, and they constitute a large percentage of the total credit granted, and thus banks are reluctant to provide loans and facilities. Banking

Therefore, we see that the decisions of the Council of Ministers and the Economic Affairs Committee of the Council of Ministers that were previously issued to support the banking sector, especially private banks, are not activated. It led to obstructing the activities and activities of private banks and greatly affected their liquidity, revenues, and deposits for that, and for the purpose of overcoming the banks crisis, in a way that ensures banks moving from the role of banking to the developmental role and revitalizing banking work in the current circumstance requires the government, in particular the esteemed cabinet and the emergency cell, to activate the decisions previously issued The Council of Ministers and the Economic Affairs Committee are as documented with the following numbers and dates

Parliamentary Economy: Border crossing revenue is $ 10 billion annually, of which only one billion is earned

21770.jpg
 

4th July 2020
 

Member of the Parliamentary Economy and Investment Committee Mazen Al-Faili said on Saturday that the border outlets in Iraq achieve annual financial revenues of $ 10 billion, but only one billion are earned

Al-Faili said in a statement received by "Al-Iqtisad News", "We stress the government taking quick steps and effective measures in collecting the revenues of the outlets, whose realistic amount is at least ten billion dollars at least annually, but it is actually obtained not to exceed one billion dollars

He pointed out that "finding solutions for this economic facility is not limited to providing significant and important revenues that revive the public budget only, but also contributes to the revitalization of the industrial and agricultural sector and the protection of the national product and what is required by providing additional job opportunities for Iraqi youth and stopping the flow of hard currency to import these materials, not to mention the fact that the government's success In imposing the rule of law on the outlets, it will restore confidence in the rest of the state’s institutions and departments and motivate them to adopt firm oversight activities in the face of corruption and corrupt people in various state locations

In this regard, Al-Fili proposed a set of mechanisms and steps, the most important of which are

1- Adopting governance (the electronic system for collecting customs duties) in a comprehensive management of all outlets, to ensure accurate control and responsible follow-up in the full payment of revenues

2- Subjecting all ports to the administration of the Federal Authority

3- Appointing an honest and efficient field administration

Each outlet and supports the deployment of elite security forces that protect their sound decisions and block the way for any groups that interfere with the work of the ports and their revenues

4- Close the unlicensed ports and crossings that operate outside the control of the state and the law

5- Reconsidering granting exemptions from customs, as regulatory reports indicate that they are exploited by persons and entities not legally covered, and exemptions are supposed to reduce to the maximum extent possible, and that customs duties are met by everyone in the outlets and after verification in the center of the validity of their inclusion in the exemption The statutory return for them with the percentage of customs fees withheld

6- That the process of payment of imported goods' duties, fees and taxes be completed upon the contracting process or when merchants purchase hard currency from the currency auction to reach these goods to the outlet and they meet all of their conditions

7- Regulating import licenses and matching them with incoming goods and commodities in order to prevent tampering with the quality of goods or exchanging them in customs fee transactions, which leads to a reduction in the fees imposed on them

8- Connecting all outlets to a national control center in Baghdad by means of a camera system that covers the work and activity of employees in the outlets to detect any tampering with the passage of goods

Al-Jubouri added, “The delay in paying the salaries of June will be the last, and for the rest of the months, salaries will be paid and disbursed within normal times without any delay. We assure the public opinion that the state is obligated to pay salaries to all employees within the approved timings.”
