Fairways&Greens Posted February 17, 2022 Report Share Posted February 17, 2022 Keep the good news coming. I like that the two hot topics of conversation in Iraq today are: 1. Oil and gas law 🔥 2. Exchange rate 🔥 It looks like there is some urgency surrounding these items. The catalyst might be the UN decision coming Tuesday 2/22/22. If removal of chapter VII sanctions means what we all hope it means, these politicians have some candles to burn! They’ve been dragging their feet a long time.

Wiljor Posted February 18, 2022 Report Share Posted February 18, 2022 Much appreciated @6ly410 great articles. Number 5 tells me that the plan is to float the IQD. “5- Regulating the Iraqi currency market centrally and in a correct manner and by enacting some laws that increase the value of the Iraqi dinar exchange rate” The primary argument for a floating exchange rate is that it allows monetary policies to be useful for other purposes. Using fixed rates, monetary policy is committed to the single goal of maintaining the exchange rate at its announced level. However, the exchange rate is only one of the many macroeconomic variables that monetary policy can influence. A system of floating exchange rates leaves monetary policymakers free to pursue other goals, such as stabilizing employment or prices. (Wikipedia) Which is exactly what, in part, the article is pertaining to. Iraq has a plan, one that “seems” to have structure and congruency. Sadr and Kazemi are making sure they get it right. I see progress in all directions DV, now more then ever there seems to be a sense of urgency to bring Iraq to the worlds stage. If they continue to pursue their mandates we may see this ride to the end. Again, nobody knows for sure, but the picture currently being painted on the canvas is nothing I have seen since my first days here in DV. Just my 2 cents 2 3 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
