IRAQ MAKES FINAL REPARATIONS PAYMENT TO KUWAIT

SULAIMANI —The Central Bank of Iraq said on Tuesday (December 21) it issued the last installment of compensation to Kuwait for its invasion of the country under the Baathist regime in 1990.

The installment amounted to $44 million, Iraqi News Agency said, citing a statement from the central bank.

Iraq was obliged to pay $52.4 billion in compensation to Kuwait according to UN Security Council Resolution 687, adopted on 3 April, 1991.

Mazhar Salih, an advisor to Iraqi Prime Minister Mustafa al-Kadhimi, said in early 2021 that Iraq was deducting 3 percent of oil revenues in order to make the remaining payments to Kuwait, according to Anadolu Agency.

A statement from Iraq’s Central Bank expressed hope that ending the compensation would affect "reintegrating the Iraqi banking system into the global banking system.

Iraq announces payment of the full amount of Gulf War compensation to Kuwait

The Central Bank of Iraq announced yesterday, Tuesday, the payment of the full financial compensation approved by the United Nations in favor of Kuwait due to the Gulf War, amounting to 52.4 billion dollars.

The bank said in a statement, that the payment of the last remaining installment of the State of Kuwait's compensation amounting to $44 million has been completed.

The statement indicated that Iraq has paid the full amount of compensation approved by the United Nations Compensation Committee of the UN Security Council under Resolution (687) for the year 1991, with a total of 52.4 billion dollars to Kuwait.

He added, it is hoped that ending the payment of compensation will contribute to the reintegration of the Iraqi banking system into the global banking system and benefit from the financial abundance that will be achieved.

In 1991, a UN Compensation Committee was formed, obligating Baghdad to pay $52.4 billion in compensation to individuals, companies, governmental organizations and others, who incurred losses resulting directly from the invasion and occupation of Kuwait in the same year.

Iraq stopped making payments in 2014 during the war on Islamic State, which controlled a third of the country, but resumed in 2018.

Iraq pays the amount of compensation to a UN fund that was established under the name of the United Nations Compensation Fund.

Iraq relies on about 98% of its annual revenues on oil exports.

Iraq Sends Final Kuwait Compensation

17 Dec 2021

Iraq has finally completed its reparations to Kuwait for the 1990 invasion. On 12 December, MEES confirmed with high level Iraqi officials that the ministry of finance had processed the last $45mn payment to the Geneva based United Nations Compensations Commission (UNCC).

The body was formed in 1991 by the UN security council to process claims and disburse compensations for losses and damages suffered as a result of the invasion. The fund originally claimed 30% of the proceeds of Iraqi oil exports while allowing Baghdad to only import necessities through the infamous oil-for-food program (MEES, 12 September 1994). After 2003, the deduction was brought down to 5%. The total Iraq has paid in compensations since 1996 is almost $52.4bn.

i have been thinking, what if iraq transitioning to SOFR instead of LIBOR is part of the financial Management Law??? this is a new financial system. Remember LIBOR ends dec 31st as well, this explains why Iraq Government banks will not be offering credit under the old system and why the government banks will not be taking deposits or making payments...googel LIBOR and see that its a major move all part of a possible global currency reset!!!

 

Benchmark interest rates such as the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) are a core component of global financial markets, influencing borrowing and lending for all types of companies. LIBOR is calculated by submissions from various leading banks that estimate the rate that would be charged to borrow from other banks. It is used pervasively in various types of contracts, with the current contracts that reference LIBOR measuring in the trillions.

In July 2017, the UK Financial Conduct Authority announced that it would no longer compel Panel Banks to participate in the LIBOR submission process after the end of 2021. On the surface, this may appear to be a problem for just the financial sector, but many companies have been surprised at the breadth of their LIBOR exposure outside of financial instruments. The benchmark rate is used in contracts across functions, internal processes, and systems, including in lease contracts, accounts receivable contacts, procurement contracts, transfer pricing processes, intercompany funding contacts, and pension plan assets.

LIBOR
 
noun
FINANCE
 
  1. the basic rate of interest used in lending between banks on the London interbank market and also used as a reference for setting the interest rate on other loans.
     

    What Is the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR)? 

    The secured overnight financing rate (SOFR) is a benchmark interest rate for dollar-denominated derivatives and loans that is replacing the London interbank offered rate(LIBOR). Interest rate swaps on more than $80 trillion in notional debt switched to the SOFR in October 2020. This transition is expected to increase long-term liquidity but also result in substantial short-term trading volatility in derivatives.

Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR)

Here's a thought!  Could all this SOFR, Derivatives, and RESET have anything to do with XRP?

It's a year today that the SEC started the lawsuit against Ripple.  

Brad Kimes says (and I agree) that when the lawsuit is over, XRP will be the most "vetted" crypto there is.

 

I don't remember the name, but somebody at Ripple said that XRP would handle "ALL the money!"

 

Whadaya think?

No, that's not what I meant.  Hopefully, XRP will be a bridge currency for money sent between Central Banks of all the countries.  That would be billions and trillions of dollars - ALL THE MONEY!
