tman23 – On Thursday, Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi apologized for ((NOT)) attending the parliament session today for “emergency reasons,” after minutes of arriving at the parliament building… (( AS I “heard”… and posted mid august…there was to be a move against the CBI on 9/8…specific to the fact that Alak (Moshen Ismail) was going to be replaced… No word on his being replaced…But by the news coming out…there is “something” going down at the CBI that is out of the “norm”…
______________________________________________________________
BGG – …the S.F. in the picture did not look like U.S. Spec Ops…it sounds like Maliki’s bunch deflecting attention by blaming Abadi’s raid on the CBI on the U.S. – much like blaming the U.S. for the National Guard Law – saying it is a “Joe Biden” attempt to divide the country… when in reality – it is just the opposite. It is a “balancing” of the armed forces in Iraq and not letting them run around under the direction of warlords and Maliki while he is in exile! [so you feel Maliki has left now?] I am not sure – but he wasn’t in the meeting of top Shia leadership yesterday. [I guess the next few day will tell us, if he doesn’t appear when all these reforms get activated then we know he is on the run.] yes we will.

Nova – WE MUST TAKE WHAT WE READ AND LIVE WITH THE FACTS. WE ARE TOLD THAT THE SDR IS COMING IN OCTOBER OF 2015. WE ARE TOLD THAT THEY ARE GOING TO SELL INTERNATIONAL BONDS IN SEPTEMBER OF 2015 IN THE IQD. THEN AT THE LAST MINUTE THEY SAY WELL WE ARE HOLDING ON THE SDR TILL LATE 2016 AND WE ARE SELLING EUROBONDS. THEY TELL USE THERE RELEASING THERE NEW CURRENCY IN 2017.
______________________________________________________________
BGG – Article: “Central Bank denies the news of the storming of its building by military force” along with this article – released at the SAME TIME was the list of “money launderers” touted by Chalibi… that is a MUCH HARDER report to attack...it’s easy enough to say “that never happened”…it’s another thing entirely when a long list of “known Maliki associates” gets published with it… my take – they are attacking corruption at every level.
______________________________________________________________
tman23 – Article: “Central Bank denies the news of the storming of its building by military force” Think about it…Iraq is active and trying to sell international bonds…An attack on the CBI would not fall on the favorable side…so could it be as simple as more security! There has been opposition to Iraq’s monetary reform…Iraq is moving forward with it…That said…it is not unbelievable that military forces are at the CBI…but bet your last dollar they are not US military forces… AND bet they are not storming through the CBI auditing Iraq’s money.

My Ladies – WELL GUESS WHAT EVERYONE THERE IS NO SUCH THING AND IF THERE WERE SUCH A TRIGGER THERE IS NO SUCH “STORMING” OF THE CBI THAT WOULD BE NECESSARY TO ACCOMPLISH THE TASK. WHEN THE DINAR RE-PRICES IT IS A VERY SIMPLE ADJUSTMENT IN THE SYSTEM AND IT’S DONE! MONDAY WILL COME AND WE WILL STILL BE HERE AND THEN NEXT MONDAY WILL COME AND WE STILL BE HERE AGAIN. THE CBI INCIDENT IS JUST ONE MORE STEP IN THE REFORMS… IRAQ CAN NOT REPRICE UNTIL THE SYSTEM AND THE MATH IS CORRECT FOR IT TO HAPPEN. THAT SYSTEM AND THAT MATH IS ORIGINATING OUTSIDE OF IRAQ…WE NEED TO UNDERSTAND MUCH MORE THAN IRAQ AND THE TIMING IS SO OBVIOUSLY NOT THIS WEEKEND FOR IRAQ. [post 2 of 2]

Kaperoni – Article: “Parliamentary Finance: misguided policies were behind the decline in the Iraqi Central Bank reserves” Well..it’s basic math..if you are going to sell more than you make, then your reserves go down. The solution is to sell less, increase revenue or get off the peg and away from the auctions.

My Ladies – WE ARE IN THE NEW BANKING SYSTEM, BUT WHAT DOES THAT MEAN? DOES IT ME AN “RV”? DOES IT MEAN BIG PAY DAY FOR US? NO IT DOES NOT. IT MEANS THAT CHANGE IS COMING AND IS MUCH NEEDED. WILL THIS HAPPEN OVER NIGHT? NO IT WILL NOT. MANY FOLKS JUMPED AT 2 ARTICLES THAT CAME OUT YESTERDAY IN A PAPER FROM EGYPT TALKING ABOUT THE CBI IS UNDER CONTROL OF THE USA…SOME…EVEN TOOK THIS TO MEAN THAT THEY MUST BE THERE TO BE PROTECTING THE PULLING OF THE TRIGGER FINALLY. WELL I JUST HAVE TO ASK WHAT DOES THAT EVEN MEAN? “THE PULLING OF THE TRIGGER?” [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

THE AMF [ARAB MONETARY FUND] RATES WILL IMPACT IRAQ DUE TO THE MASSIVE BUSINESS AND TRADE EXPECTED AND OF COURSE THE MARKET — BANKING REFORM — THE IRAQI DEVELOPMENT ETC ETC.

Poppy3 – they told abadi get this corruption stopped now…he ask by what means…they told him what ever it takes to move forward now at any cost…1 hour later US troops took over the Rasheed CBI BANK which is where Maliki has been laundering and stealing their money. ADABI HAS ORDERED AN AUDIT IMMEDIATELY FROM 2003 TILL TODAY. THE BLEEDING SHOULD BE STOPPED AND REFORM WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE FORWARD FAST.
______________________________________________________________
Memphis – Article quote: “Urgent / Iraq “special forces stormed the Central Bank of Iraq a little while ago and has custody of the documents and all the documents from 2003 to the present day…” so Iraq is again a sovereign nation giving US forces free reign to storm the offices of their central bank; this story carries as much truth as when Shabibi had to flee by jet to Switzerland to avoid arrest only to appear at a symposium in Jordan a short time later. I can believe the event, just question the splainin’.
______________________________________________________________
tman23 – October 2012 Shabibi went to Japan for conference, during that visit Maliki placed a warrant for Shabibi’s arrest…….. Lebanon is who has been working with Iraq on lifting the 3 zeros (not Turkey as Guru TD would claim from his inside source)…. When that arrest warrant came out for Shabibi (to be specific) he was in Tokyo…..The Central Bank Governor of Lebanon, Riad Salameh…In 2012, Governor Salamé chaired the IMF and World Bank Boards of Governors held in Tokyo. He chairs the following bodies: the BDL Central Council, the Higher Banking Commission, the AML/CFT Special Investigation Commission and the Capital Markets Authority. Salamé is member of the Board of Governors at the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the Arab Monetary Fund (AMF)……. Recall the recent articles of Maliki and “funds” in Lebanon….. Also….Recall that Ali Alak (CBI governor) from articles (several) was said to be traveling with the Iraqi Bond roadshow to the US and London…… Yesterday an article places Ali “Keywords” in Lebanon…….. Ali Akabar is the Deputy Governor of the CBI……. So which is it? Ali Keywords in Lebanon…… Do we have one in the USA and one in Lebanon…… and TAKE [SPECIAL] NOTE!!…..during the absence – report of a “raid” on the CBI…

BGG – Article quote: “special forces stormed the Central Bank of Iraq a little while ago and has custody of the documents and all the documents from 2003 to the present day…” I think the storming of the CBI – is the MOST STUNNING news of the YEAR…they have been monkeying around with these jokers politically – then BAM!! S.F. rolls in and scoops up all the documents – ask yourself why? S.F. storming in and grabbing up documents is not a political solution – it is a very serious criminal/trial/evidence solution…and THAT is likely why Maliki did a disappearing act. it appears…to be some cooperation between Abadi, Parliament and whomever moved on the CBI – I doubt very much it was the US. sounds like they are going after this corruption – full force.

Mnt Goat – In 2006 Iraq has it’s first launching of sovereign bonds. Did they have an RV then? So why do they need one now for the 2015 launch. So please there is no dependency on these bonds for an RV. Today is Friday already and still no RV and the bonds did get launched on time yesterday. However could the funds ($6 billion) be used to set up for a near future effort to do something with their currency? Let there be no mistake this is a very strong possibility. To put the icing on the cake we should be watching carefully for these three laws: National Guard law. Investment law, and Money Laundering law; and then for signs of significance success in Anbar and Mosul areas over ISIS. I told you from mid August to mid September would be a very critical time for getting these reforms accomplished. I told you Abadi would make a final push to get them completed and it would be very sudden and unexpected by most. We are witnessing all of this now. [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Poppy3 – [SINCE IMF WANTS IRAQ TO DIVERSIFY…AND NOT RELY ON OIL, THEN MAYBE THIS IS WHERE THEY WILL NOT NEED THE HCL IF THEY CAN BE SOMEWHAT EQUAL IN AGRICULTURE, OIL, ETC.] IT IS NOT A REQUIREMENT FOR THE RV BUT IS NEEDED BECAUSE IT IS THE AGREEMENT THAT PAYS THE PEOPLE OF IRAQ. THE PARLIAMENT VOTE ON THE HCL WHEN COMPLETED ONLY CLEARS THE WAY FOR THE RV BEING CLOSE BECAUSE IT IS MONEY FOR THE PUBLIC AND THAT WILL PULL THE OTHER LEADERS TOGETHER. IF ONE OF THEM GOES AGAINST IT THE CITIZENS WILL KNOW CLEARLY WHO TO GO AFTER. STAND BY ALL IS WELL AND ABADI KNOWS WHAT HE IS DOING AND HE IS GETTING CO-OPERATION FROM MANY OTHER LEADERS.
______________________________________________________________
Backdoc – REMEMBER I TOLD YOU THAT OIL WOULD PLUNGE AND IT DID? WELL, GET READY FOR A FAST RIDE DOWN IN THE MARKETS! SOMEWHERE IN THAT PROCESS OR AFTER…THE REAL REWARD WE ALL HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR WILL OCCUR! I ALSO TOLD YOU THAT THE OIL SUPPLY ISSUE WOULD HAVE TO BE SOLVED POLITICALLY FOR OIL TO COME BACK TO NORMAL LEVELS SO THAT COUNTRIES CAN REBOOT THEIR ECONOMIES! IF WE SEE A RATE VERY SOON YOU CAN BE ASSURED THAT THE PROCESS HAS PROVED SUCCESSFUL. I WILL SAY I’M VERY EXPECTANT FOR A GOOD OUTCOME!

Adam Montana – …I was never happy with their projection of $70 per barrel….I thought it was too high. I am much happier to see them using $60 per barrel now. It’s my thought that the budget will need to be revised after a significant change in the value of the currency, so how about HCL this month or next, RV before end of November, and then Budget in December? Sounds good to me! With a higher valued Dinar, we should see a spike in the global economy. Iraq, for one, will purchase and operate many more military vehicles, as will many other countries. The wealth that can be created could easily drive up consumerism, which will create a higher demand for oil, which will drive up the price of oil, which is yet another benefit for Iraq.
______________________________________________________________
Kaperoni – At this point, moving to Article VIII is wishful thinking. The CBI knows the rules..within 2% and hold it for 90 days. So they sit in Article XIV. But remember what Dr. Bakri stated, currency reform will come beforehand. True freedom of movement of capital cannot happen until the CBI moves to Article VIII.
______________________________________________________________
Adam Montana – We’re still waiting on movement with the HCL. It’s really that simple. Once we see that happen, we’re moments away from “money in the bank”.

Jubouri: Parliament is keen to follow up the Iraqi government reforms
______________________________________________________________
Stryker – …the government is seeking to privatize Rafidain and Rasheed Banks, Iraq’s two state owned banks. These banks do not need to be privatized to see reform but must be moving in that direction according to the IMF itself. In this same article…CBI Governor Ismail explained that the foreign currency reserves are at $60 billion but are at a safe level and there’s nothing to worry about at this time. Mr. Ismail also explained that the dinar is stable at the present, see this quote: “If we look at the markets these days .. we will see that the price is very stable .. and very reasonable, so no need to worry about this at the moment.” He goes on to talk about the international bonds reintegrating Iraq back into the global financial system after years of wars and sanctions.

Abadi: reforms included actors close to me and the Council of Ministers
Alsumaria News / Baghdad – confirmed the Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi, Thursday, that recent reforms announced by involving those close to him and the “actors” in the Council of Ministers,stressing that the reforms are not directed against persons or entities. Ebadi said in a speech during the first workshop for the implementation of reforms economic and followed up by Alsumaria News, “The reforms that we have taken is not directed against persons or entities,” noting that “I have had some scissors included their personal relationships and their role effectively in the Council of Ministers.” He said al-Abadi, that “the reforms will not stop and must include all aspects of the state and society,” stressing that “there may be political quotas to turn into obsession, and this is at the heart of what we do from the reforms.” It is said that Abadi, recently announced the launch of a series of packages and decisions Correctional after popular demonstrations and protests took place several Iraqi cities to demand reform and improve the services and the fight against corruption.

______________________________________________________________
Enorrste – The rise in the value of the dinar has nothing to do directly with inflation. In addition, the CBI has never mentioned moving to a managed float. All reference has been to a free float. The IMF has also pushed for a move to a free float. It is my personal opinion that the dinar will rise quickly once it is released. I suspect that the CBI is being cautious in its prognostications. …a rising value of the dinar will lower internal prices within Iraq, not raise them. Inflation has no part in a rising dinar value.

Millionday – Article quote: “ …the draft reform of the inmates and depositors Law, and the Anti-Money Laundering and Financing of Terrorism Act.” IT IS READY FOR VOTE.

They want to help – but they won’t do so while everything goes directly into Maliki and other corrupt official’s pockets.

Whatever the number – or the term – or what the “title page” looks like – I’m just looking for THE JUMPING OFF POINT…because once it gets going (again) their market will take care of the rest. I also wonder what it has been called every time they changed the value of the Dinar since 2003 – (when it started out at around 4,000:1)? it can’t have been a “float”…technically not an RV (according to some)…and again – I really could care less what they call it as long as the value goes up.

Below are the central controls related to the exchange rate of the foreign currency to convert the project inputs and outputs from foreign currency to its equivalent in the local currency, and that is by calculating the net discounted present value standard and the internal return on investments in economic analysis that governs investment projects that costs excess one million dinars.

Mnt Goat – One of the biggest advantages of the lifting of the sanctions is the return of all frozen assets to the Iraqi government, estimated at $82 billion, according to Central Bank data. Its return will not only revitalize the economy, it will strengthen the value of the Iraqi dinar and increase its purchasing power. But TO THIS DAY IRAQ IS STILL FROZEN IN TIME and still using the post war provisional 3 zeroes notes, meant to be transitioned to the new, permanent currency prior to sanctions being lifted in 2013. So we know the delay in currency reform and the project to delete the zeros is noted clearly and there is pressure from members of parliament finance and economic experts who see the necessity to get the currency reforms completed since these projects can only help the dragging economy.

Lots of pressure in all areas of getting rid of Iranian influence in Iraq... [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Martha – In their professional opinion after being involved in Bond Offerings 100 times more valuable than Iraq’s, one does not make this long of a trip to the 2 leading World Powers with the 3 Leading World Banks IF NOT INTENDING TO MAKE A DEAL to issue debt THAT WILL BE AN OFFERING EXTERNALLY IN THE GLOBAL FINANCIAL MARKETS. Iraq is not here for a lot of talk and no action. They are hopefully here to sell Bonds, signed sealed and delivered in the Global World Markets. To do so, requires a rate and one considerably higher than is presently at 1186. No Country and No Corporate Entity in their opinion are going to buy these Bonds on a promise from a country such as Iraq or any country for that matter with a Program Rate. It will require a RATE INCREASE FIRST. Naturally this is only the opinion of 2 close friends who have over 50 years of experience in the World Global Bond Markets and are Dinar Investors and who have been involved in not Billions…but Trillions of Bond Investments over their long careers.

Martha – [new guru] I decided to…meet for lunch with two of my close friends who are very active in the Chicago Financial Community who are considered by their peers to be 2 of the most respected Bond Traders around who just happen to also be very large Iraqi Dinar Investors as well…one of them will be at the upcoming meetings in London. Without a doubt, they both said that the United States and London are the 2 leading Bond Market Places in the World. In addition, Citigroup, Deutche Bank and JP Morgan are without a doubt the 3 leading underwriters of the World. Neither of these 2 Countries or 3 Banks are going to be blindsided by a Country such as Iraq. …the names listed representing Iraq on this trip are at the pinnacle of its own financial community. They would not be sending the best if not without orders to get a deal done. [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

BGG – “...A member of the parliamentary economy calls for the deletion of zeros and the issuance of Banknotes small to strengthen the dinar…” which only means one thing…small notes and strengthening the Dinar = RV – period…as of today we have a member of the Parliamentary Economic committee calling for the RV…my comments are backed up by some very mainstream reports. [How much of a push will that create now that the parliamentary economy has called for an RV?] I’m hoping – a “tremendous push”.

wmawhite – [Alot of people are now thinking 2016/2017. Any thought s on this?] I continue to believe that the CBI/GOI continue to press forward and that they may reprice/revalue the IQD at any moment.

tman23 – Think about this for a minute……. Flashback to more Shabibi statements….. The concern of loans to citizens and the documentation including the 3 zeros on the loans and the confusion that follows when lifting the 3 zeros……… They speak frequently about all the different loan programs…….. IMO…I don’t see them opening all the new windows and mechanisms with the inclusion of 3 zero accounting……Saleh says in the coming weeks……NOT SOON…… but coming weeks.

Millionday – TODAY [TUESDAY] IS THE LAST READING ON THE MONEY LAUNDERING LAW — PER AGENDA —THAT LEAVES A VOTE FOR THE LAW TO BE PUT IN PLACE —I AM SO EXCITED. ABADI ALREADY GAVE THE OK TO LAUNCH THE ECONOMIC REFORM — THEY HAVE BEEN GIVEN THE OK TO RELEASE THE NEW CURRENCY…AND IRAQ IS A DEMOCRATIC COUNTRY.

Aggiedad77 – Article: “Jubouri: Parliament seeks to inter legislation important laws” Speaker of Parliament Jubouri recognizes as many do that Parliament has a number of important laws that await legislation on their part…they must act...they must move forward if they expect to deal effectively with the demands of the demonstrators and the reforms that are being pushed…Parliament is an integral part of this puzzle and they MUST do their part to keep the Iraqi head above water…this is not a time for Parliament to grow stagnan…they must act.

tlm724 – Article: “Agency US: Iraqi investment bonds “weak” Quote: “the Iraqi Finance bond strength rank B- weak, as shown that this category because of the vulnerability of Iraq’s security and institutional risks impressive on the strength of its economy” had Iraq made better progress with their economic laws up til this point I believe this rating would have been at least a B or B+. now they are wanting to sell these bonds and the confidence in Iraq has not reached a comfortable level Yet and they are gonna feel those repercussions during this sale. they haven’t proven that they can financially operate outside of oil sales after all these years they are still working towards a free market and until they prove themselves financially responsible it’s gonna be a hard sell on these bonds.

Kaperoni – Article quote: “whenever we were able to strengthen the country’s economy will be reflected on the value of the Iraqi dinar” I think there is a bit of translation error in this statement… it translates as in past tense and I think we all agree Iraq has not strengthened the economy as of yet. So I believe she is confirming what we have been saying for quite a while that as the economy grows, so will the dinar.

Frank26 – Article: “A member of the parliamentary economy calls for the deletion of zeros and the issuance of Banknotes small to strengthen the dinar“ When have You EVER seen a GOI member ask to lift the THREE ZEROS and give them the LD’s? TEAM say the new policy is moving very fast. Days to hours…Not days to weeks. Interestingly good.

Millionday – Article: “A member of the Parliamentary Economy and Investment has called for the issuance of Banknotes small to strengthen the Iraqi dinar.” THEY HAVE TO OPEN TO THE MARKET BECAUSE OIL IS NOT ALL THEY NEED FOR EMPLOYMENT ETC — SO DUE TO THE ECONOMY AND >>>FISCAL POLICY THE SMALL NOTES ARE NECESSARY—WHOOOPOW.

Breitling …You have gained, you just don’t realize it yet because people don’t count on the value of the dollar going down. So you’re looking for a hard revaluation…it should have been here…so that is your timeframe…it should have been here. Think about it…They get the note count down to about a billion and it should be around $3 and the last report we got was they were at 4 Billion. You saw what they did with the 50 dinar note. You know they are pulling a little off whenever they can. There is a reason they are coming out with bonds. There is a reason they are after the US dollar. there is a reason they got rid of the note count. There is a reason they passed these laws. [post 2 of 2]
