currenzcraze Posted February 13, 2022 Report Share Feb. 11, 2022 Will Iraq’s exit from EU money laundering blacklist bring investment? Iraq/Economy An employee of a currency exchange counter shows a stack of Iraqi dinars in Nasiriyah, Iraq on Dec. 20, 2020. (Photo via Getty Images) The European Union (EU) has removed Iraq from its list of high-risk countries for money laundering and terrorism financing. Iraqi Prime Minister Mustafa Al-Kadhimi attributed the delisting to a “manifestation of our effective diplomatic efforts.” The move comes at a time of immense economic hardship in Iraq, and could bring about positive change by attracting direly-needed foreign investment. The delisting will make it easier, at least on paper, for European and other foreign investors to operate in the country.

yota691 Posted February 14, 2022 Author Report Share Government advisor: Iraq's money abroad is surrounded by a high legal fence Time: 02/14/2022 14:49:13 Reading: 585 times {Economic: Al Furat News} A financial advisor to Prime Minister Mustafa Al-Kazemi reassured about Iraq's funds and assets abroad. Mazhar Muhammad Salih told {Euphrates News}: “Since the issuance of UN Security Council Resolution No. 1483 in May 2003, the United States has linked Iraqi oil to the compensation for the Kuwait war, and that the money is placed in the Federal Reserve Bank in New York. Iraq has been since 2003 and until 2013 is protected by US Presidential Order. And he indicated that "this decision protects Iraq's money from any legal claims or lawsuits brought by creditors." Saleh noted, "The United Nations issued a resolution in 2010 to lift protection, and Iraq's funds and revenues remained stable and surrounded by a high fence of legal protection, and Iraq's funds remained protected." US President Joe Biden's decision, which he signed last Friday, to dispose of $7 billion of the frozen assets of the Afghan Central Bank and give part of it to the victims of the September 11, 2001 attacks, raised Iraqi fears of a similar behavior by the US administration towards Iraqi funds in the United States. But the Iraqi government dispelled these concerns about Iraqi assets and said that "it cannot happen to Iraq as it happened with Afghanistan, because relations with the United States are good and normal." A government advisor to Al Furat News stressed, "Dealing with the Iraqi financial system and in the United States on a regular basis, and that Iraq has ambitions for high stability," noting that "our relations with America are sufficient to stand up to any such demands."

What concerns us in the aforementioned statement is that Iraq is outside the list of countries under surveillance, and this means that the Central Bank of Iraq continues to abide by international standards for compliance and anti-money laundering and terrorist financing rules, and that its international banking transactions are not tainted by any negative comments, and that Iraq has maintained a disciplined manner since the year 2018 when it was within the control area (gray) and was moved to the green zone, which is the normal follow-up area, every two years, to which all countries committed to international standards are subject, and this was previously achieved by Iraq when the Central Bank liquidated about 700 notes on his international banking dealings. And that the important and basic thing is that Iraq was able during the years 2020 and 2021, which are the years of crises, challenges and economic, financial and epidemiological shocks, to strengthen and activate controls, instructions, self-regulation, institutional and legal control, control the movement of foreign exchange, control the movement of imports and foreign remittances, and strengthen banking relations with countries of the world and issue instructions The sale and purchase of foreign currency for the year 2021, which enabled it to maintain its position in the assessments of the International Financial Action Task Force.
