Central Bank of Iraq signs deal with Mastercard to boost digital payments

https://www.thenationalnews.com/business/economy/central-bank-of-iraq-signs-deal-with-mastercard-to-boost-digital-payments-1.1206713

 

The deal will also promote financial inclusion and encourage social-economic development

 

 

The Central Bank of Iraq signed an agreement with Mastercard to reduce the use of cash and promote digital payments in the country.

The agreement will help Iraq digitise its payment ecosystem, boost financial inclusion, encourage social-economic development and mitigate the risks of a shadow economy, the entities said in a statement.

“We are very much looking forward to working with Mastercard to advance Iraq’s digital transformation, beginning with the education sector,” Duha Mohammed, CBI's head of payments, said.

“We clearly recognise that the digital economy has a vital role to play … especially in enabling formal economic growth through a new payment ecosystem that is transparent, simple and effective.”

Iraq’s population of nearly 40 million is largely cash-driven, according to the World Bank. Almost 99.8 per cent of its $122 billion personal consumption expenditure was made in cash in 2019, the lender said.

 

 

 

However, there is a large untapped potential for digitisation. Iraq has a 70 per cent smartphone penetration rate and about 22 per cent of the population falls within the young and tech-savvy bracket, Mastercard said, citing World Bank and Statista figures.

The partnership will aim to build a secure payment ecosystem within the education sector initially, the statement said.

“Our work with the Central Bank of Iraq will focus on improving overall efficiencies [in] the economy, starting with the educational institutions by giving parents, students and merchants a much safer, simpler and more convenient way to pay,” Khalid Elgibali, Mastercard’s division president for the Middle East and North Africa, said.

“This is only the start … we look forward to expanding into other sectors at a later stage, as we work to advance the full payment ecosystem and achieve financial inclusion in Iraq,” Mr Elgibali said.

The partnership will develop a full digital ecosystem in Iraq, covering key pillars including the use of public policy and regulation to curb the shadow economy and push for the digitisation of key value chains, the entities said.

The value chains include government collections, disbursement, consumer spending, business purchases and salary payments.

Mastercard in strategic partnership with Central Bank of Iraq

BAGHDAD, 6 hours, 29 minutes ago

http://www.tradearabia.com/news/BANK_381431.html

Mastercard has signed a partnership agreement with the Central Bank of Iraq (CBI) to digitise the country’s payment ecosystem. 

 

This is intended to boost financial inclusion, encourage socio-economic development, mitigate the risks of a shadow economy and accelerate the advancement toward a cashless society.

 

The partnership first aims to build an efficient, reliable, and secure payment ecosystem, starting with the education sector, and expanding into other sectors. This will not only reduce the use of cash, promote the use of digital payments, and increase government revenues, but will also minimise sizeable operational and administrative inefficiencies in the education industry by reducing the overly manual processes. 

 

Iraq’s population of 40 million people is largely cash-driven, with 99.8% of its $122 billion personal consumption expenditure made in cash in 20191. Despite that however, there is a large potential for digitisation, as the country has a 70% smartphone penetration rate and 222% of the population fall within the young and tech savvy 15-24 years old age bracket.

 

Furthermore, there is often very little choice in payment methods offered to parents and guardians with most students managing all their payments in cash. With neither parents nor students having bank accounts or using online payment services, it is critical to encourage a change in the way consumers pay school fees, since it can cause a ripple effect by impacting the entire payment ecosystem and economy.

 

Duha Abdul Kareem Mohammed, Director General for Payments Department  at the Central Bank of Iraq, said: "The work that Mastercard has done in Iraq over the last few years has made a notable impact on the country’s financial service’s sector and driven greater levels of financial inclusion. At the Central Bank of Iraq, we clearly recognise that the digital economy has a vital role to play in that journey, especially in enabling formal economic growth through a new payment ecosystem that is transparent, simple, and effective. We are very much looking forward to working with Mastercard to advance Iraq’s digital transformation, beginning with the education sector.”

 

Khalid Elgibali, Division President Mena, Mastercard, said: “Creating a digital payment ecosystem is critical, not only because it encourages economic development, but because there is also a demonstrable, negative relationship between cash use and the shadow economy. Our work with the Central Bank of Iraq will focus on improving overall efficiencies the economy, starting with the educational institutions by giving parents, students, and merchants a much safer, simpler, and more convenient way to pay. This is only the start however, and we look forward to expanding into other sectors at a later stage, as we work to advance the full payment ecosystem and achieve financial inclusion in Iraq.”    

 

The Mastercard partnership with CBI is a starting point that will allow for the development of a full digital ecosystem in Iraq, which will cover key pillars including the use of Public Policy and Regulation to curb the shadow economy, a wholesale modernisation of the payment ecosystem, and the digitisation of key value chains. Those include government collections and disbursement and peer-to-peer and consumer spending, as well as business purchases and salary payments.-- Tradearabia News Service

Parliamentary Finance clarifies two "dangerous" paragraphs about the budget related to the imbalance of numbers

2021-04-19

https://yesiraq.com/المالية-النيابية-توضح-فقرتين-خطيرتين/

Yes Iraq: Baghdad

The Parliamentary Finance Committee responded to two paragraphs that have sparked controversy since the publication of the General Budget Law in the official factsheet. The first concerns the inclusion of tables that show the numbers of the initial version of the budget in terms of revenues, expenditures and deficits in contrast to what the final version carries, with regard to the other issue regarding the value of oil revenues included in the budget .

Experts pointed out that the figures obtained from the sale of 3.25 million barrels of oil per day at a price of 45 dollars gives revenues for a full year of about 77 trillion and not 81 trillion as included in the budget, before the Finance Committee responded with a statement in which the "inquiries" were made.

The committee stated in its statement that it “has seen some data and what it contains of inquiries from some brothers regarding the fiscal budget law for the year 2021, and would like to clarify the following:
- There is a clear text in the budget - (g) of Clause IV of Article 2 First, which stipulated According to the following, “The Ministry of Finance must adhere to the ceiling of the allocations mentioned in the amended Table B and redistribute those allocations in both operational and capital sides, and classify them on the basis of the level of sections, divisions, chapters, materials, types, and the type hierarchy in the ministries and entities not linked to the Ministry and the governorates in the other attached tables.”

This means that the ceilings and allocations mentioned in the amended schedule (b) attached to the law are the ruler over the rest of the tables, and that the Ministry of Finance is committed to redistributing the allocations therein, and they are ceilings consistent with what has been approved in the body of the law, and there is no defect as some have tried. Promote it.

- That the amount of oil revenues mentioned in the budget includes what is achieved from the sale of the occasional derivatives resulting from insulation, refining, etc., in addition to what is achieved from the sale of the estimated quantities of oil and their expected prices.

We ask the brothers to examine or question the Specialized Committee to find out any questions, questions, or misunderstandings in reading the provisions of the Budget Law

War for Obelisk: Iraq's exit from the lists of high-risk countries is a victory for the government and the central bank

http://almasalah.com/ar/news/208221/حرب-لـ-المسلة-خروج-العراق-من-قوائم-الدول-ذات-المخاطر-المرتفعة-يعد-نصرا-للحكومة-والبنك-المركزي

 

Baghdad / Obelisk: Legal expert Tariq Harb, Monday April 19 2021, considered Iraq’s exit from the British classification of high-list countries as a "political and economic victory" for the government and the Central Bank.  

Harb explained in a statement to "Al-Obelisk", that many years have passed since the name of Iraq was included in the lists of high-risk countries, with the consequences of this staircase of great political and economic effects, perhaps the first and most important of which is the impact on investment and the reluctance of non-Iraqi companies to work in Iraq and the effects. The government and the Central Bank of Iraq have made great efforts, especially in the area of their cooperation, by taking the necessary measures regarding money laundering and terrorist financing.  

He added: The Iraqi newspaper Al-Waqi’a has hardly been published and has been devoid of publishing international procedures and decisions, especially those issued by the special committee associated with the UN Security Council with regard to combating money laundering, terrorist financing and other charges related to seizing the money of those accused of money laundering and terrorist financing, even if they are not. Iraqis, a higher committee was also established in the Central Bank to combat money laundering and terrorist financing, and these and other measures, such as activating the Anti-Money Laundering and Terrorism Financing Law No. 39 of 2015, was therefore issued Resolution 392 of 2021 including raising the name of Iraq from among the countries with high risks and thus it deserved The government The Central Bank deserved praise and praise for their efforts in raising the name of Iraq from the lists of high-risk countries.

And the Central Bank of Iraq announced, last Sunday, that Iraq was removed from the British classification of high-risk countries.  

In a statement, the bank stated that in the framework of the efforts of the Central Bank of Iraq and through the Office of Combating Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing in developing the business environment within the international compliance standards for combating money laundering and financing of terrorism, the British Treasury in the United Kingdom Government Department did not include the name of the Republic of Iraq in the lists. High risk countries according to Resolution No. 392 of 2021.

He added that the United Kingdom adopted the recommendations of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) in classifying countries with high risks in terms of applying anti-money laundering and terrorist financing standards, after its exit from the European Union countries, and it promised Iraq is committed to keeping pace with and implementing international recommendations.

The fact that Iraq is not included in the list of high-risk countries is positively reflected in facilitating business and entering companies between the two countries, as well as supporting financial operations between the Iraqi banking sector and the United Kingdom

In Iraq, the political and social implications."

He added, "The Al-Kazemi government and the Central Bank of Iraq have made great efforts, especially in the field of their cooperation, by taking the necessary measures regarding money laundering and terrorist financing.

Advisor Al-Kazemi .. Floating the currency leads to the collapse of the market and warned against its implementation

The Prime Minister’s Adviser for Financial and Economic Affairs, Muhammad Mazhar Saleh, confirmed today, Monday, that it is not permissible to float the currency in Iraq, indicating that this leads to the collapse of the market.

 

Saleh said that "it is not permissible to float the currency in Iraq because the market will collapse in this case," indicating that "the entry and exit of hard currency does not enter the market, which is only an exit for it, but the government is the one that brings this hard currency."

 

Saleh added, "If the government withdraws its hand, the supply will stop and the demand increases, and therefore the market will collapse."

 

He pointed out that “the problem in Iraq is that the market is asking and that the state is offering, and in the event that the Central Bank does not sell the dollar, it means that all the supply has stopped and there is no other offer. Because demand will be more than supply. "

 

He stressed that "the state is the bidder in Iraq, and therefore if the state tends to float, this means that there is no supply and thus prices collapse."

 

Floating currency is completely liberalizing the exchange rate, so the government or the central bank does not interfere in determining it directly, but rather it is secreted automatically in the currency market through the supply and demand mechanism that allows setting the national currency exchange rate against foreign currencies.

 

It is noteworthy that some officials talk from time to time on the need to float and liberalize the currency to preserve the hard currency reserves at the Central Bank.

New calls for the government and the central bank about the dollar exchange rate

News source / NR TV

The "National Awareness" movement called on the government and the central bank, on Monday, to find new financial policies that balance the decision to devalue the currency and the citizens' needs.

"The government should grant loans with low interest rates for unemployed youth and support the ration card by adding new materials," said a member of the movement, Ali Al-Nusifi, in a special statement to NRT Arabia, adding that "the decision to reduce the currency must be accompanied by policies that protect the citizen's bread."

Al-Nusayfi warned of "the high rates of poverty in Iraq, especially since the geography of poverty exceeded 25% in Iraq, according to the latest statistics of the Ministry of Planning."

The awareness movement was established by the former leader of the Wisdom Movement, Salah Al-Arabawi, in September 2019 in an effort to introduce a new generation into the arena of politics and compete with traditional parties, including its members, the activist Hussein Al-Shalakh, the sports journalist Taha Abu Ragheef, and the economist Ali Al-Nasifi
