Economist: banking law ensures that the money deposited in state banks , even if stolen
Said economist Majid picture, that the Iraqi law guarantees citizens who deposit their money in the safety of government banks the money, even if they are stolen.
He said that the picture of “Iraq has enormous economic potential and talking about the depletion in the economic life for him to correct his theories,” noting that “one of the best economic potential, which we are tourist traffic and the entry of foreign currency into the country and continuously increasing and this requires the Government to invest this side is actual”… (Special thanks to RCookie – BIG PIECE!!)

CLEARLY THEY ARE FOLLOWING THE PLAYBOOK!

Frank26 (Dinar Guru) – BONDS…in my opinion, it does appear that the USA will not back up the BONDS that the GOI wants to sell. Remember, back in December, the IMF told the GOI that they were going to help them – if they raised the value of their currency. Well, here we are…upon the prepuces of the monetary reform…and Abadi saying they have done everything…well…IF… you have done everything…they get LOANS don’t they? I have not seen the CBI website show me a new rate for the IQD. They have not changed it officially. DO THEY WANT THE LOANS…the 640 Million Dollar Loan. They will get that WHEN they raise the value of their currency…and if they don’t…they won’t get the BONDS. This is not bad news. This is fantastic news!

Backdoc (Dinar Guru) – Article: “Central: The dollar fell a natural reserve and we have enough to import a long time” Article quote: “Counting the Iraqi Central Bank on Tuesday reduced its reserves from the dollar, “a natural phenomenon” due to lower selling prices, and stressed that this decrease was “vain” and achieved “very important” economic purposes, social, and as pointed out that the current reserves “are sufficient to cover currency exporting and imports for a long time…” THIS ARTICLE OF “ACTION” IS VERY TELLING INDEED! ALL OF THE SUDDEN THEY HAVE THE NEED TO DE-DOLLARIZE, HEE HEE. AHH BUT THOSE DOLLARS SEEMED TO SERVE THEIR PURPOSE DIDN’T THEY? WITH SOME TYPE OF ACTION TAKEN THERE SEEMS TO BE NO REASON TO HANG ON TO EXCESS DOLLARS THAT ARE GOING DOWN IN VALUE RIGHT? HEE HEE. IT SEEMS THEY HAVE ENOUGH FOR A LONG TIME NOW! GOTTA LOVE THIS ARTICLE! ACTIONS MEAN THINGS! IMO.

Frank26 (Dinar Guru) – …WF [Wells Fargo] has spent millions of dollars this year to put up some screens in their front lobby…and when you walk into WF, do you know what you see? These big TV screens … and do you know what is on them? Foreign Currency Rates. Why would WF even bother to spend millions of dollars to let you know what the rate is of foreign currencies? What, are they preparing for something? Is the monetary reform coming to an end? …this is an indicator… how fast and how far things are going along.

Frank26 (Dinar Guru) – The police action that has gone into Iraq from the UN has discovered that over 300 companies are involved in stealing out of Iraq’s Central Bank. Isn’t the IMF going ballistic because of this information? Oh yes! We are cleaning it all out – like a root canal. Trillions have been traced/stolen… if they bring those dinars back…wow! According to recent articles – the citizens are now trusting the banks in Iraq. That is important part of the monetary reform! So they’ve taken them from a Black to a Gray to a White List. you know what a white list means? It means that their banking structure has no restrictions on them. [post 2 of 2]

Frank26 (Dinar Guru) – All Providences are preparing themselves to deal with the INTERNATIONAL world. …it’s no longer about terrorism. Iraq desperately wants to join the international world – but corruption is everywhere. Who’s behind the corruption? The ministers who have been stealing from parliament or the CBI through the auctions. Remember, the auctions used to be between 3 to 4 Million a day? Now these auctions are much, much lower. Family members of the GOI and banks in other countries have been involved in stealing money. The UN is looking at everything to help Iraq move into an International market place. The international world is looking inside of Iraq…to help them become international. The UN is there to provide discipline and stop the corruption…security teams with the UN are there.

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) – […is there any part of you that feels the dinar will never reevaluate] I am certain the dinar will rise as a result of opening the market economy. Do I fear a delay? Yes. As long as Maliki can interfere delays can and probably will happen.

BGG (Dinar Guru) – WHAT DID SHABIBI SAY WAS MOST IMPORTANT DETERMINANT TOWARD MONETARY REFORM. 1) inflation 2) corruption? Article quote: “Annual inflation index in Iraq decreased slightly by 0.2%, during the period from August / August 2015 and up to the same month of 2016, while the monthly inflation index rose in August.” So if, as Dr Shabbibi said – it’s about inflation and corruption – these things are being dealt with directly…it appears they are making direct and rapid progress as per their agreements, directives and oversight from the IMF from the summer and before. It’s IN THE WORKS NOW!!

BGG (Dinar Guru) – [There are 5 sovereign Ministers for the GOI, 2 are filled. What’s the prospects of completing all 5 with the inclusion of the above ministers?] The filling of these positions is inevitable. When – may be another story… However, given their recent progress – I doubt there are any long term hold-up’s. I just don’t see it.

BGG (Dinar Guru) – Mosul HAS NOT been liberated... though it is likely a “foregone conclusion” – some time ago, astute analysts have been saying the politics would be harder than the actual “battle” itself… and it looks like they are getting very close to broad-based agreement on the subject.

Iraq woes deepen amid charges of Maliki comeback plot
Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi addresses the United Nations General Assembly in New York on September 22. Photo by Monika Graff/UPI | License Photo
LONDON — Nuri al-Maliki, Iraq’s former prime minister, has been accused of undermining his successor, Haider al-Abadi, after allegedly engineering the dismissal of a second senior government minister in the space of a month.
Hoshyar Zebari, who held the finance portfolio, was dismissed in a parliamentary no-confidence vote in September that he claims was both unconstitutional and politically motivated. Zebari, a Kurd, said he believed the vote was part of a hidden political agenda “carried out by the State of Law parliamentary bloc, headed by Nuri al-Maliki.”
He said in a statement that parliamentary Speaker Salim al-Jabouri had been complicit in what Zebari described as a “vindictive, short-sighted” decision that was clearly intended to narrow political agendas…

BGG (Dinar Guru) – Article: “The Peshmerga under the command of al-Abadi and increase the budget of the Kurdistan” it appears this recent visit in Baghdad by the Kurds (which hasn’t happened in a long time)… went VERY well…(almost as a “side note” it appears they are hammering out a new Oil deal… I would more expect it to be along the lines of the last, for expediencies sakes – “codified” in the next budget…) rather than a legit HCL… (which is fine)… it all works

SteveI (Dinar Guru) – Article: “A government official: There is a shortage in the domestic market Dinars“ Quote: “the fiscal policy of the Iraqi government in general is facing a shortage of Iraqi dinars in the local market.” This problem is about to change in the very near future. Hang in there.

Yuan joins IMF’s elite reserve currency club in a milestone moment for China
The yuan becomes the fifth member of the prestigious SDR basket on Saturday, but more reforms are needed before it is a freely traded currency, say analysts
China’s yuan joins an elite group of reserve currencies created by the International Monetary Fund on Saturday in a move hailed as a milestone in the country’s rise to global financial prominence.
From tomorrow, the yuan, also known as the renminbi, will become the fifth member of the IMF’s prestigious Special Drawing Rights (SDR) basket of currencies, alongside the US dollar, euro, Japanese yen and British pound.
Analysts say it marks the beginning of a new era for the yuan, paving the way for its wider adoption in international trade and bolstering China’s status as a key player in the global financial system…

Frank26 (Dinar Guru) – I think the barrel of oil is going to go to somewhere around $120…for about three months and then come back down to $60….they would be out of trouble at the blink of an eye…this will fuel the budget…And with ISIS not controlling oil any longer anywhere in the ME…and with the auctions now being controlled by the UN police…the days of ISIS are numbered…ISIS cannot sell any oil on the black market anymore…is this a coincidence…that the price is now going up when they are no longer in control of any oil….well would it be a coincidence if the Iraqi dinar were to go up when they are no longer in control of what they stole. Iraq set its oil ceiling and will prop up oil prices for the international market…you know why…so they can be in line with OPEC. [post 2 of 2]
