yota691 Posted October 17, 2021 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2021 Experts: Iraq should take advantage of the rise in oil in investment projects Sunday 17 October 2021 123 Baghdad: Huda Al-Azzawi Experts and specialists in economic and financial affairs called for the optimal use of the surplus achieved by the rise in oil prices in the current period to complete investment projects, not only consumer and operational, and while they stressed the need to find a "sovereign fund" to invest the current and future surplus, they indicated that optimism about the rise in oil prices should It should not be excessive because volatility rules the global market. Adviser to the Prime Minister for Economic Affairs, Dr. Mazhar Muhammad Salih, said in his interview with “Al-Sabah” that “the rises in crude oil prices are subject to three factors: the first is the price averages throughout the fiscal year, the second is the exported quantities, and the third factor is hedging against the fluctuations of the oil market because The cycle of assets in it is fraught with risks, as once supply rises above demand, a so-called (oil glut) occurs, which leads to serious collapses in crude oil prices. And he indicated that, based on the effective (Financial Management Law), which urges the adoption of an average price of a barrel of oil for the purposes of calculating oil revenues in the budget in a rational and conservative manner, "the general budgets of the Republic of Iraq are designed on oil prices lower than the market price and generate a potential or hypothetical deficit surrounded by a financial buffer that handles Collecting oil revenues that exceed the price of a barrel of oil specified in the budget to feed expenditures without resorting to borrowing in the event that the deficit is actual. He explained that "the problem in the budget is always (non-oil) revenues that do not reach the ceiling of the targeted expectations," and that "if we expect, for example, (50 dollars) as a price for a barrel of oil for the budget of next year 2022, we must obtain an average annual return from exports. Oil, with the export of more than three million barrels, at a price per barrel of oil not less than $75 an annual average. 2023". 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post yota691 Posted October 19, 2021 Author Popular Post Report Share Posted October 19, 2021 Al-Kazemi's Financial Advisor Talks About Changing The Exchange Rate Author: Ahad7 On 10/18/2021 - 8:29 PM 3,528 The Financial Advisor To The Prime Minister, Mazhar Muhammad Salih, Confirmed Today, Monday, That The Financial Surplus From The Rise In Oil Prices Will Cover Three Important Axes, Including Filling The Expected Deficit In The Current Year's Budget. Saleh Said, "The Financial Surpluses Achieved From The Rise In Oil Prices And Their Reaching $75 Per Barrel Will Cover At Least Three Axes," Noting That "The First Axis Is Covering The Planned Deficit In The General Budget For The Year 2021, Which Amounts To 29 Trillion Dinars, While The Second Axis Is Related To Covering The Real Additional Deficit Gap Of Less Than 10 Trillion Dinars, Which Is Caused By The Failure To Estimate Non-Oil Revenues, Which Achieve Only 40% Of Their Estimated Or Planned Estimates In The Budget, Which Unfortunately Causes Pressure On The Planned Annual Spending And Its Ceilings, Which Is Caused By The Failure Of The Financial Collection Institutions In The Country. He Added, "The Third Axis Goes Towards Supporting Faltering Projects Whose Operation Is Intended To Continue, And For Which Many Business Contractors Demand An Amendment Of Implementation Costs (Spare Parts) Due To The Exchange Rate Change Before The Initial Contract Or Other Changes In The Operating Costs Of Ongoing Projects," Noting That "The Disposition Of With Financial Surpluses, It Is Not Easy Due To The Many Restrictions And Obligations Within The General Budget Itself, Including Postponing The Payment Of Many Of The Expenses That Are Payable And Were Not Spent In Previous Years.” He Pointed Out That "There Are Dozens Of Laws That Carry Financial Burdens That The Public Finances Are Unable To Implement The Resulting Increases, Even According To The Hypothesis Of Achieving An Annual Average Price Of A Barrel Of Oil Of $75 Compared To The Price Fixed In The Federal General Budget For The Year 2021 Of $45 A Barrel." . On The Extent Of The Possibility Of Adjusting The Exchange Rate Of The Dollar Against The Iraqi Dinar, Saleh Said, “Adjusting The Exchange Rate Is One Of The Actions Of Monetary Policy In Achieving Stability, Targeting Inflation And Limiting Its Heights Under The Effective Central Bank Law,” Noting That “This Is A Matter That Takes Into Account Monetary Balance Considerations, Two Restrictions, The First The Coverage In Foreign Currency Of The Local Liquidity, Which Has Increased Significantly, Due To Financing The Deficit In Government Expenditures, Which Led To The Expansion Of The Monetary Base, Or What Is Sometimes Called In The Literature The (Domestic) Cash Reserve, And If The Foreign Reserves Outweigh The (Domestic) Cash Reserve In A Way That Does Not Threaten The Country’s Foreign Reserve Wealth Or Its Depletion And Maintains Its Stability, Accumulation And General Stability In Prices. He Pointed Out That "The Second Limitation Is That The Effects Of The Adjustment In The Exchange Rate Should Be Fully Consistent With The Objectives Of The Country's Fiscal Policy And Its Level Of Stability, Meaning That It Should Not Threaten The Sustainability Of The Budget Or Cause Sudden Stumbles In Public Revenues Due To The Change In Monetary Values And The Entry Into Failures (Compensatory Value Deficit) In The General Budget, I.E. Itself, Due To The Fluctuation Of Monetary Policy,” He Explained, “This Requires Always High And Accurate Coordination Within The Country’s Supreme Economic Policy Operations.” 12 2 3 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dinarham Posted October 19, 2021 Report Share Posted October 19, 2021 When Iraq was negotiating out of Chapter7 with Kuwait , Kuwait was in the catbird seat . They may be more integral to this whole thing than we think . They would never agree to a settlement where they shot themselves in the foot with having a much higher exchange rate than Iraq , especially when it came to selling oil. It would be like , "no thanks , we'll just buy our oil from Iraq because it 's mucho mucho cheaper " . Iraq has already paid approximately $53 billion in reparations , with a measly $2.5 billion still owed . In the grand scheme if things , this is chump change . Innerweb sources are murky on whether this amount was paid in USD or Dinar ,they just state the amount . So did the US pay this debt off because it might have been stipulated in the Strategic Framework Agreement? Better yet , is Kuwait holding onto $55 billion DINAR ?!! . At a rate higher than Kuwait's , that is no longer chump change . 1 4 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No clarification needed.... it’s “ clear “ to me they’re going to continue to TALK about this until the cows come home. Seeing how few cows are in Iraq, I suspect they’ll need a map to find their home. .... many maps of Iraq are of one color, desert beige. Ever try reading a map that’s just barren & featureless ? Thanks MEP01. Clarification in all things with these monkeys as the only thing they’re clear on, is that they’re deliberately NOT clear on anything. 1 2 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3 bucks new rv rate Posted October 20, 2021 Report Share Posted October 20, 2021 12 hours ago, Half Crazy Runner said: Well, you have to admit, they actually did change the exchange rate at the end of last year. Just not in the direction we wanted 😁 yep. you are right Half Crazy Runner. hopefully, they don't either devalue again ( even worse than 1,460 ) or return to 1,182 again. what was the date they devalued last year? the date was december 19,2020. so the date i should keep in mind is December 19, 2021 ( more or less )? P.S : I amn't guru and amn't trying to predict the date and the rate. Iraq's central bank devalues dinar by over a fifth Central Bank will devalue Iraqi dinar by 22% in response to severe liquidity crisis brought on by low oil price amid public anger. Saturday 19/12/2020 The new rates represent a dramatic reduction from the previous official rate of 1,182 IQD BAGHDAD - Iraq's Central Bank on Saturday announced it will devalue the Iraqi dinar by over 20 percent in response to a severe liquidity crisis brought on by low oil prices, a measure that has sparked public outrage as the government struggles to cover its expenses. Riot police were dispatched outside the central bank headquarters in central Baghdad prior to the announcement in the event news of the devaluation sparked protests. A leaked draft of the state budget law for 2021 caused furore on the Iraqi street last week as it confirmed plans to devalue the dinar. The new rates represent a dramatic reduction from the previous official rate of 1,182 IQD. It is the first reduction in exchange rates that the Iraqi government has made in decades. In a statement, the Central Bank set the new rate for the dinar, which is pegged to the US dollar, at 1,450 IQD when selling to the Iraqi Finance Ministry. The dinar will be sold to the public at 1,470 IQD and to other banks at 1,460 IQD. The devaluation raised the prospects of the dinar weakening further on the street. The rate has already risen to 1,400 IQD per US dollar on Saturday, up from 1,300 IQD last week, at currency exchange agents. “I stopped exchanging currency,” said Abo Abed, who works at a currency exchange in the Karrada neighborhood of the capital. He turned away a customer with a $100 bill, saying he could only sell at the old rate of 1,300 IQD. “Who knows, tomorrow it could be 1,800 IQD.” Since an oil price crash earlier this year, Iraq has been grappling with an unprecedented liquidity crisis. The crude-exporting country has had to borrow from the bank’s dollar reserves to pay the nearly $5 billion in monthly fees for public salaries and pensions. Oil revenues, which account for 90% of the budget, have brought in an average of $3.5 billion. Efforts to introduce reforms have been met with opposition and to date, the government has been borrowing internally to foot state bills. A devaluation would give oil-rich Iraq, which imports nearly all of its goods, more dinars in hand to make urgent payments. But setting a new rate has been a delicate balancing act to satisfy the government's needs for liquidity without impacting the average Iraqi. The Finance Ministry is responsible to allocate salary payments to public workers, the largest working force in Iraq and among the most disgruntled by the new currency measures. The bank justified the devaluation saying it was the product of “intense deliberations” with the prime minister, finance minister and lawmakers, and stressing the reduction in the dinar's value would be a one-time occurrence. “It must be emphasized here that this change (reduction) in the value of the Iraqi dinar will be one-time only and will not be repeated,” the statement said. “The Central Bank will defend this price and its stability with the support of its foreign reserves,” which it maintained are still at stable levels. The bank blamed poor economic policies over the last decade. It said it had “no choice but to intervene” as poor economic planning and fiscal policies from Iraqi politicians have reduced Iraq to a crude-exporting state with the bulk of state expenditures going toward paying a bloated public sector. The devaluation drew the ire of public sector workers. Many fear a weakened dinar, as well as plans proposed in the budget to cut salaries and impose taxes, will amount to pay cuts. While taking a step toward austerity, the proposed state budget for 2021 also calls for record spending projecting a deficit of nearly $40 billion. A Cabinet session to vote on the law was postponed to Sunday. From there, it will be voted on by lawmakers, a challenging task as the cuts are considered wildly unpopular ahead of next year's nationwide elections. “It will be very difficult (to pass),” said lawmaker Sarkawt Shamseddine. “In order to convince MPs to vote for this big bill the government has to show it has other plans ... to increase revenues. That's the strategy.” Prime Minister Mustafa al-Kadhimi called for early elections to take place one year earlier than scheduled on June 2021, in line with demands of anti-government protesters. link : https://middle-east-online.com/en/iraqs-central-bank-devalues-dinar-over-fifth 3 2 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoD Posted October 20, 2021 Report Share Posted October 20, 2021 I’m in agreement with you LB, my guess the first of the calendar year January 2022 would be a great time to make the change. It appears their getting everything lined up and the public education seems to moving along as well. I also think if Al-Sadr can some how hurry up and form the new government it will add credibility and stability to Iraq which would be a plus to foreign investment…. 1 1 7 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
