In the parliamentary finance by calling for the support of banks and activating the deposit law
{Baghdad} Euphrates News called the parliamentary finance committee member Ahmed Sarhan, the government to support banks and activate the deposit law for the purpose of revitalization of the banking sector and development of the country’s economy.
The MP said Sarhan Ahmed told {Euphrates News} ” The development of the banking sector in Iraq is through the government support for the banks, as well as the Central Bank and funding required amounts to be able to fulfill their duties to the fullest , ” noting that “this depends on the amount found in the reserve the central bank “…

Arthur (Dinar Guru) – WE KNOW FOR A FACT THAT A STIPULATION FROM THE IMF TO RECEIVE THEIR FULL FUNDING IS TO END THE MCP (MULTIPLE CURRENCY PRACTICE). TO DO THAT, THEY WILL NEED TO EITHER INSTANTLY OR GRADUALLY END THE AUCTION PROCESS FOR USD AND EXCLUSIVELY USE THEIR OWN CURRENCY JUST LIKE ALL OTHER E-GLOBAL COUNTRIES MUST DO UNDER IMF LAWS. THIS BY DEFINITION MEANS THEIR CURRENCY WOULD HAVE TO HAVE WORTH TO INTERNATIONAL NORMS BASED ON THEIR GOLD AND FOREIGN RESERVES, OIL, PHOSPHATES, AND OTHER EXPORTABLE RESOURCES. AS WE ANTICIPATE SEEING IF THE IMF WILL HOLD TRUE ON THEIR FIRST HALF OF 2016 FOR AN INTERNATIONAL IRAQ, IT NOW APPEARS THAT DAILY THEY ARE DOING EVERYTHING ONE WOULD WANT TO SEE FROM A COUNTRY THAT IMO IS CURRENTLY IN THE PROCESS OF REVALUING THEIR ENTIRE ECONOMY INCLUDING NATURALLY THEIR SOVEREIGN NATIONAL CURRENCY [Post 2 of 2]

Arthur (Dinar Guru) – Article: “ In the Parliamentary Finance by calling for the support of banks and activating the Deposit Law……..“: THEY ARE NOW IMPLEMENTING THEIR DEPOSIT LAW. THIS ACTUALLY TURNS ON OR ACTIVATES THEIR ENTIRE BANKING E-COMMERCE ECONOMY. IT WILL INSTILL A NEW TRUST AND CONFIDENCE IN THE IRAQI BANKING SYSTEM FOR IRAQIS AND OTHER INVESTORS IN IRAQI BANKS. BASED ON WHAT WE KNOW ABOUT THE E-COMMERCE INFRASTRUCTURE THEY HAVE BEEN BUILDING FOR THE PAST 3 YEARS AT LEAST, IT WILL ALLOW THEM TO IMPLEMENT AND ENJOY BANKING EVEN MORE DIGITALLY SOPHISCTATED THAT RIVALS MOST IF NOT ALL COUNTRIES IN THE WORLD.

Okie_Oil_Man (Dinar Guru) – GOOD SATURDAY AMERICA, SHIPS AT SEA AND ALL OUR WORLD WIDE FRIENDS. WELL LIKE A BAD PENNY I HAVE RETURNED FOR THE MOST IMPORTANT POST I MAY HAVE EVER MADE. I HAVE BEEN INFORMED AND AUTHORIZED TO MAKE THIS POST. ABOUT A YEAR AGO OUR MILITARY BASES IN THE EAST COAST WERE PERMITTING OUR RETURNING VETERANS TO EXCHANGE AT THEIR PARTICULAR BASE THAT HAD A FOREIGN EXCHANGE AT THEIR POST EXCHANGE OR BASE EXCHANGE. THEY WERE AUTHORIZED TO REDEEM THEIR DINAR AT 47 CENTS TO 3 DOLLARS PER DINAR. THE BASE COMMANDER HAD AND HAS THE AUTHORITY TO EXCHANGE AT THE RATE MOST ADVANTAGEOUS TO THEIR PARTICULAR STRUCTURE. THIS MAKES A VARIED RATE POSSIBLE BETWEEN BASES. THE REASON THIS ARRANGEMENT IS POSSIBLE IS BECAUSE OF THE SOVEREIGNTY OF THE MILITARY. THIS PROCEDURE WAS RE-STARTED YESTERDAY ON 6-3-2016. I UNDERSTAND IF YOU KNOW OF A RETIRED OR ACTIVE MILITARY INDIVIDUAL THAT CAN ACCESS ENTRY TO THE BASE’S THAT HAS A FOREIGN EXCHANGE YOU CAN NOW UTILIZE THOSE FACILITIES TO FACILITATE A TRANSACTION FOR YOURSELF. WE NEED TO SHARE THIS INFORMATION PUBLICLY AS SOME MAY BE ABLE TO AVAIL THEMSELVES OF THIS OPPORTUNITY. AT THIS PRESENT TIME I HAVE NOT BEEN TOLD OF PRIVATE TRANSACTIONS FORTHCOMING TO THE MAJORITY OF US.

mike (Dinar Guru) – Article: “In the parliamentary finance by calling for the support of banks and activating the deposit law” …it’s music to my ears… I don’t see much changing until they provide this depositors insurance, no one’s going to put they’re money in an Iraqi bank without some kind of protection. …they know what they need to do and for the life of me I can’t figure out why they can’t pass such an important law for the people, the banks and the country.

firefly (Dinar Guru) – Article quote: “The agreement with the IMF should unlock a total of $18 billion in international assistance over three years, said Zebari, citing the World Bank and the Group of Seven leading industrialized nations among other donors.” IMO Iraq is renegotiating concessions, and payments to help them push this currency shift ahead.

Aggiedad77 (Dinar Guru) – Article: “Abadi and Kuwaiti ambassador in Iraq discuss the outstanding issues between the two countries” Talk about kissing and making up…wow…these two countries have some really bad history between them…yet here is Kuwait willing to extend the olive branch…willingness to aid in relief efforts as well as helping with the Iraqi displaced citizens…plus supporting the fight against terrorism…I do wonder if they may have discussed the remainder of Iraq’s debt to Kuwait that needs to be paid…something around $4 billion dollars…and I believe the postponement of payment was only until 2017…is KW’s willingness to help now because they get a hint of what is about to happen and know the debt will be paid in full…and they too will reap benefits from being an investor in Iraq…time will soon speak I pray.

Iraq PM Abadi urges lawmakers to stop squabbling, rally behind army

__________________________________________________________
Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi has appealed to politicians to “freeze” their wrangling over his anti-corruption reforms and unite behind the army as it battles Islamic State in Falluja, near Baghdad.
Abadi has been grappling with a political crisis since February and has been unable to rally the main blocs in parliament to back an anti-corruption plan that includes a cabinet reshuffle.
He ordered the offensive on Falluja on May 22, after the political crisis degenerated into deadly street violence in and near to Baghdad’s heavily fortified Green Zone, and a series of bombings, claimed by Islamic State, hit Shi’ite districts of the city.
“I appeal (to the politicians) to freeze all differences until the land is freed,” he said on state TV late on Wednesday during a visit to the army’s front line near Falluja, 50 kilometers (32 miles) west of Baghdad.
“Daesh is the ultimate corruption and whoever prevents us from fighting Daesh is corrupt,” he added, referring to the ultra-hardline Sunni group by one of its Arabic acronyms…

Delta (Dinar Guru) – …we all know of the deal between Iraq and the IMF…there was information on Iraqia TV and another article today…from the Financial Advisor to Abadi…One thing he stressed is that the IMF Board has to give the final go ahead for Iraq to get their funds…so he said that for Iraq to get this loan they have until June 15th to submit a letter from Iraqi authorities to the IMF board that they do agree to all the IMF conditions and the framework of the loan…and the most important condition to us concerns the financial reform…they talked of two things…one was about taxes…and the other…they HAVE to lift the 000’s and basically do the currency reform…so this seems to give us a very small window…they have less than two weeks to accomplish everything and send the letter to the IMF…so this letter being submitted will be exactly the same as Iraq accepting Article 8…so by the end of the month of Junethen…the IMF board will look at all of what Iraq has said they have done…and one is the currency reform and the establishment of the true value of the Iraqi dinar…Again…now these two things seem to point to the idea that we are very close. [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________
Delta (Dinar Guru) – I know we are getting very close to a lot of things going on…Number 1 is an announcement from the Minister of Planning…this coming Thursday they are going to launch something…very important…and very significant for our investment…they call it the Development Management System…we know the CBI with help from the GOI…they decided to be a cashless society in the long run…their goal is to move the whole country in this direction of e–government or electronic…the launching of this project will be this coming Thursday and it looks like PM Abadi will be present to launch to this…without this Management System the financial reform cannot proceed…they have to have this system in place to do the currency reform and the financial reform…So this coming Thursday they will celebrate the launching of this system…so indications are we are getting really close…but we don’t know exactly a date… Second point… [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________
Shredd (Dinar Guru) – the fact of the matter is the rate fluctuations [Guru] Bondlady has noticed is worth watching. The central bank must maintain stability which is what we are seeing, without question when the dinar is on a globally-recognized, market-driven floating rate regime, we will see it adjust and at that time, supply & demand, interest rates, inflation, and GDP will affect it… I would expect the rate to grow in strength rapidly if for supply alone, also, in my speculation…

“Some MPs from the point of the protesters realized that their sit -in is the glory does not constitute a positive impact , “noting that” some of them felt refer to the Council of Representatives . “He added that” Iraq is passing through a dangerous phase and there is a big security and economic challenges , “he said , adding that” the number of pupils who are deputies arrived to 40 deputies…

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) – Article: “The House voted, Sunday, to extend the legislative term of the parliament for a month extra.” […What is your feeling on this, and are they trying to get something done before the end of June?] This doesn’t mean they are “working” for another month, it just means they gave themselves a month extension to carry through Ramadan. I think…that although nothing significant gets passed during the holiday, this does not mean they won’t be working on things to have an “End-of-Ramadan” celebration.
______________________________________________________________
Frank26 (Dinar Guru) – …the MCP [Multi-Currency Policy] is extremely important …now the USD is suffocating us to death…we flooded your markets…we forced you to use it…but now we are taking it away because the Multi-Currency Policy in your country must end…it means they can only use their currency…Abadi and the GOI/CBI and all of you new guys…shut down over 300 places where they were exchanging money…some of those were banks and outlets…this was another source of thievery…but it is gone…the corruption is being straightened out…Something is going on…because these 300 they can’t even do business any more…nor can the citizens get what they were getting from them any more...our auctions are going to be coming less and less…in fact our goal is to take our auctions to zero…you have to raise the value of your currency

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) – One more note regarding the timing… remember when I said that the HCL could be tied very tight to the price of oil? We are definitely going in the right direction, just like I thought we would be: Article: “Iraq expects oil prices to $ 65 in the coming months” Yep! That’s right… $65, in the coming months, which is exactly my expected price AND time frame. Ramadan ends on July 5. [post 2 of 2]

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) – …we’re looking at something big again. The re-shuffling of Parliament is all but done. It’s been a little quiet on that front for a week or so, and that’s a GOOD thing! It means they are now in a position to move forward, and from what I’m hearing (…from MY sources)…is that HCL should be on the table REAL soon. It was my hope that we’d see it before Ramadan, but let’s be 100% realistic – Ramadan starts in a couple days, and NOTHING SIGNIFICANT GETS DONE DURING RAMADAN. However, that’s not to say that they won’t be setting things up during Ramadan. [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

(NONE OF THIS PRESUMES TO – IN ANY WAY “PREVENT” an RV)…it is just observation by an Iraqi as to what would help move things forward. 1) Amnesty Law 2) HCL (how they divide the oil revenues). 3) Fed Court Act 4) Civil Service Act. and BTW – none of the above happen without an effective and FUNCTIONING CoM (Council of Ministers) which is what Abadi is fighting tooth and nail for – and the Dawa Party / SLC / Maliki thugs are fighting AGAINST.

War: The pleading of the Federal Court on 29/5 made a judgment soon
Follow-up / Iraq today – Confirmed the legal expert Tareq Harb said the hearing conducted by the Federal Supreme Court on 05.29.2016 was almost close to resolving the case and semi-close in favor of one of the parties to the proceedings at the appeal hearings of Parliament for the month of April 2016,

BGG (Dinar Guru) – Article: “Kurdish blocs announced their support for his reformist Ebadi“ So the Kurds are announcing (telegraphing) relatively broad-based support for Abadi’s reform project...This is interesting in light of the fairly severe splitting of the National Alliance and crumbling of Maliki’s support base…and the mostly ineffective political attacks his crooked bunch carried out in Parliament lately…they are doing everything they can to slow walk things…surprise surprise. Sadr is backing Abadi… (that’s about 4 Million protestors over the last several weeks)…it’s like having 2nd Amendment protection – but made up of human bodies. The Kurds are backing Abadi – (as per today’s PR releases)… This is all very good news.

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) – So now Iraq is in a quagmire. They are being forced to make changes with monetary policy…changes that will benefit us as investors. The plan calls for ending the auctions (they must have an alternative if they do that such as float), getting off the peg, moving from Article XIV under the IMF to VIII when the conditions allow it. But they key for any of this to succeed is the Iraqi politicians to create the right economic atmosphere so the plan will succeed…which seems to be the biggest question…if they can. [post 2 of 2]
______________________________________________________________
Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) – Iraq dropped the ball big time. They had a window of time from about 2010-2013 in which under Article XIV, they were meeting the guidelines the IMF requested and at the same time, profits were high due to high oil prices, etc. Unfortunately, Iraq chose to steal as much money as they could during that time, than do what was right. Now, the conditions have changed, oil prices are 50% or more less than that period, revenue is less, Iraq cannot meet its payroll, or other investment obligations…as a result everyone is complaining that the auctions, the peg, etc. no longer works…which is true,,especially if they ever wanted to get the dinar out convertible/tradable on a global scale.
