Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) – As we get closer to the end of the year, we should see more informative dinar news if in fact the CBI is preparing to make changes to policy.
______________________________________________________________
Breitling (Dinar Guru) – Question: To take the dinar to international status do they have to be article VIII and no more than 2% spread for at least 90 days? They are at international status. Is there a bulletin board somewhere that says we don’t recognize the Iraqi dinar currency? What country gets to say the Iraqi dinar is a currency? You have the most powerful country that’s every existed on the planet that’s go the most powerful currency that has every existed on the planet and we’re the ones who actually produced their currency that they have right now. If you want credibility to know these guys are legit we’re the ones who set it up… Everyone in the dinar community was able to purchase the Iraqi dinar in their country so obviously there is no restriction …
______________________________________________________________
Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) – Article: “Exclude” the application of a unified Gulf currency in the near term” Quote: “Confirmed economists, that put up a unified currency Lt six members of the Gulf Cooperation Council is unlikely in the long foreseeable future.” More good news…for years the Middle East has talked about unifying to a single currency, which if it happened would not be good for us as we want to see Iraq with it’s own strong Dinar. The statement “unlikely in the long foreseeable future” is good news for sure.

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) – Article: “Learn the benefits of removing zeros from the Iraqi currency” Quote: “…the Iraqi Central Bank Governor said the project to delete the zeros will be implemented in the beginning of 2017, indicating that the bank began to develop the first steps of the project.” That is a good one…! High hopes and fingers crossed! We have a bit to wait yet. They need to end the war and clean out Mosul and I am sure they need to pass a few more laws. But this article for sure provides more clarity and confirmation on the plan.
______________________________________________________________
Delta (Dinar Guru) – […the CBI auctions…for the last month or so have been showing numbers with discrepancy …some of the numbers are not fully being reported…but hidden somehow?] They are not show the numbers (rate) on the spreadsheet for a while now. Something really is going on. We know they have to do it. They have no choice! They have a plan to do it…3 articles talk about it…It’s possible they are hiding it…waiting for the right timing. We are very, very close. The windows…Nov 7th or Dec 7th…if they want the money from the IMF…they have to do it! Watch and see what is going to happen.
______________________________________________________________
tman23 (Dinar Guru) – This is the silent move suspected to be part of the process of lifting 3 zeros… Now in the past salary caps/budget and cuts…numbers worked out to speculating that a rate of 67 cents was in the formula…of course since then a great number of circumstances have entered the picture… The speculation today works out to 76 cents which would be on par with the Canadian Dollar and Australian Dollar… It is this 1305 number that is on the board….in the banks and at the CBI… Been waiting for this EXACT NUMBER to POST… IT was posted last night which in the opinion of “conspiracy theorists”…THE PROCESS IS ON TRACK… And it will without doubt have the 3 zeros lifted at the start of 2017… [post 2 of 2]

tman23 (Dinar Guru) – …I posted back in April…The CBI governor said in several banking meetings inside and outside Iraq that the CBI plan was to maintain the rate of 1,305 through the end of 2016…The statement from the governor had bankers “shocked, disappointed, and not understanding the reasoning and none was provided”…BUT what is speculated is that this 1305 number has a significant role in the “numbers game” and lifting the 3 zeros… The speculation told to those who private message me is the start would have to begin at least 60 days before lifting 3 zeros… Just need to look/watch for unsuspected casual movements… Last night for the very first time in all banks across Iraq the rate posted 1,305… …the rate fluctuates…it has been 1280, 1285, 1290, 1295, 1300, 1310… But NOT 1305 AND IT HAS posted the 60 days prior to the New Year that was the speculated timeline thought to see 1305… [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________
Breitling (Dinar Guru) – I don’t believe for one second that you and I will wake up and the very next day it will be a $1.17. They’ll stage it but it will go up and that’s the point. They’ve been telling everybody for years. What are the 3 main things we have to look for to make sure this thing is staged correctly? We watch the note count. We watch the competition within the country with what the dinar is competing against…the U.S. dollar mainly. And the auction floor. And it’s all coming full circle. They’ll be able to add value to their currency. They’ll stage it correctly they’ll be able to participate on the planet. So whatever they are not making in oil they can invest in other business on the planet. That’s how they’ll benefit from it. [Post 2 of 2 ]
______________________________________________________________
Delta (Dinar Guru) – The CBI tried for so many years to control the market rate…but couldn’t. It’s impossible because the USD is so dominate in Iraq. They have to make the IQD very effective and give it the power of purchase. Even when Shabibi was in charge, he couldn’t control it. We all know what the IMF has the right to do. This was the plan from a long time ago.

MadDscout (Dinar Guru) – [Is Iraq currently in Article 8?] They are working within art 8 but are not fully compliant. [Is the spread part of the problem?] They seem to have a handle on the spread. It is a matter of putting new banking laws into effect across the board which was talked about in a speech at the International Fair held in Iraq.
______________________________________________________________
Breitling (Dinar Guru) – Iraq has oil…that’s it. So if they’re not making money on the oil they have to get it from somewhere else…right now they are in a restructuring stage. I get asked all the time, “when do you think it’s going to revalue?” It all depends on how far they can go and afford restructuring. Meaning how long can they go keeping their currency low and restructure for cheap? Well guys that’s coming to an end. they can’t do it any longer because of the market and the price per barrel. That’s why you’re seeing all these articles coming out and more and more from the CBI saying “we’re going to do it…we’re going to pull the trigger.” and that’s why people should be very very excited because it’s coming down the road and its not hype. It has to do with they’ve been kind of cornered. Having said that… [Post 1 of 2]
______________________________________________________________
MadDscout (Dinar Guru) – …we are still in a very good place. They are still moving forward on many fronts. We are also seeing ground work being laid for the taxation structure and more evenly applied tarrifs. Much investment starting up in many places. We are watching Anbar being refurbished and all that is going on in Basra, and it’s outlying cities. And a speedy push into Mosul. [Seems as though Mosul has to be liberalized from Islamic Terrorism…Then everything else starts to take place?] I can’t say as I disagree…I don’t say have to…But it will go a long way towards it. We know the CBI wants Political/Social stability.
______________________________________________________________
Frank26 (Dinar Guru) – Banks in Mosul…are not connected to anything…9 months ago the coalition forces blew up the bank in Mosul…But not all of the banks. So what happened to them. They were secured and TURNED-OFF. If these banks are needed for the Monetary Reform…they can just REBOOT them…because it’s now an E-COMMERCE environment.

Backdoc (Dinar Guru) – REMEMBER THE IMF SAID THEIR LOAN REVIEW FOR IRAQ WOULD CONCLUDE ON NOV. 7TH OR DECEMBER 7TH…THIS MONTH OR NEXT…DIGITAL PAYMENTS SHOULD BE UP AND RUNNING! WITH THE COUNTRY CODE (IBAN) IN PLACE, IRAQ LOOKS TO BE READY TO MOVE MONEY CROSS BOARDERS.
______________________________________________________________
rcookie (Dinar Guru) – Article: “Baghdad gallery .. motionless economic expansion of cooperation with the world” Quote: “Baghdad , the new international exhibition of 450 international companies representing 12 countries came ambitious and wide in the hope of achieving its goals closer cooperation with Iraq” …A GREAT PRECURSOR TO BAGHDAD 43RD INTERNATIONAL FAIR…FEATURING MORE THAN 450 COMPANIES FROM 12 COUNTRIES… SHOWCASING IRAQI INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITIES FROM ALL SECTORS….
______________________________________________________________
Delta (Dinar Guru) – If you go to the CBI website and read their strategy/plan…they need to do the exchange rate. The plan includes 2016! Very significant…very huge! We believe they do have the DATE and the RATE! We believe that we are very close. For those who have Warka bank accounts…they really are in business. Most importantly, the IBAN (which is the identity of that bank)…and my account…I logged in as usual…and noticed something different. You now can see the account number and the IBAN code. That IBAN number…shows they are going international. I was so happy to see that! If they weren’t ready…they could have waited until next year. This is more confirmation….This is solid proof they are going international. All that is missing is the rate.
______________________________________________________________
wmawhite (Dinar Guru) – …it is always good to ask…”what is it that we know.” Most of what we know comes from the Central Bank of Iraq. The most recent was two and a half weeks ago… “The governor of the Iraqi Central Bank, on Thursday, said the project to delete the zeros will be implemented in early 2017, indicating that the bank began to develop the first steps of the project…he added that “the Bank is working on the mechanisms in place towards the implementation of this project is expected to commence by the beginning of 2017…” …other article/opinion pieces, IMO, support or add to what the CBI has indicated what they want to do.

Parliament: the host Governor and bank managers to discuss the reasons for the high dollar prices
The Parliamentary Committee on the economy and investment plans to host the Governor and directors of State banks, soon to find out the reasons for the low dollar reserves and exchange rate appreciation.
Although taking many Iraqi Central Bank action to try to reduce the dollar in local markets remains shaky rising up sometimes to 1300 dinars per dollar, as attested in return Bank reserves, continued deterioration.
Supermarket called citizens and merchants to complain to him about banks and remittance companies that sell per dollar by more than 1200 BD, having expanded sales outlets to include State banks, as campus last month three private banks and banking company 99 entry window to sell the currency, because of violation of the laws and regulations of the Bank regarding the purchase and sale of foreign currency but those actions didn’t work well in lowering rates, and comforted to reasons of oil sales and the dollar exchange rate to other currencies…

Frank26 (Dinar Guru) – The media and parliament is all talking about the Monetary Reform…Economists are telling the GOI to add value to the IQD to solve all of their problems. IMO – Abadi will NOT hesitate…the MOMENT Mosul is SAFE and SECURE/STABLE! He is surrounded by America’s BEST! …everyone in Iraq is pressuring the CBI to raise the value of the IQD. Abadi is looking for that “perfect moment.” That man could flip the switch whenever he wants. All of this to be reported on the 7th of November…and plan B if it’s the 7th of December. [post 3 of 3]
______________________________________________________________
Frank26 (Dinar Guru) – Dr. Shabibi said he wanted to bring back the value of the 70’s – 80’s. Shabibi said that it depended on supply and demand. Supply and demand is about to happen by the citizens in Iraq. The IMF is ready…in my opinion…and Iraq is getting ready. IMO…a date and a rate is being explained to the IMF right now…on the 7th [November]…or the 7th [December]. Two days ago the finance committee met with Allak (and others) to see if things were improving. Auctions, rate, etc. We believe that is what those meetings were about. They only have to meet on November the 7th and not necessarily December the 7th. December is optional. If they are ready – it won’t be necessary. The meetings must be successful…and is inches away. [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________
Frank26 (Dinar Guru) – Remember what we said about Fallujah? Give us Fallujah and we’ll give you the Economic Reforms? …And the economic reforms poured out about a week BEFORE they gave you Fallujah. So here we are with Mosul and we’re within a ½ a click from Mosul…maybe closer. We’re almost at the CENTER of Mosul – in my opinion. When it comes to the news…it doesn’t get any better than that. Mosul is very close and…it will bring STABILITY AND SECURITY for IRAQ so they can move forward. We’re looking for a FLAG in Mosul and a FLAG of the Monetary Reform. [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]

wmawhite (Dinar Guru) – …keep in mind, that the large notes will be needed in the market place until the prices of goods decrease…but the prices will not decrease until the value of the currency buying the goods increases in value significantly. So, when you are told the delete the zeros project will result in the need for the 50, 100 and 200 IQD notes, then you can assume that there is a change in the value coming soon. The smaller notes will coincide with the larger notes for up to ten years. The most important part of their statements is that the 50, 100 and 200 is expect either by 2017 or the beginning of 2017…and in order for the 50, 100 and 200 notes to work…and change in the value must occur.

wmawhite (Dinar Guru) – Article: “Iraqi monetary system enhanced the currency of a new dinars” This is what the Central Bank said two and a half weeks ago…”He noted that” the introduction of new currency does not mean the destruction of ancient coins, but it will continue to trade to about ten years, “pointing out that” this period will enable the central bank to withdraw the old currency in accordance with the mechanics will maintain market liquidity.” …ancient coins…(coins/notes)… i.e. the notes you have today. The notes the citizens currently have will be accepted for 10 years. [WHICH IS THE SAME NOTES THAT WE HAVE.] In order for those smaller notes to be put into circulation/market place, the value must change. If the value changes then something will change with the peg as well as the auctions. In other words…these are all tied together…that is why it is referred to as a “project”.

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) – […It will soon be time to buy dog tags and that RV would sure help out. And I could sure use some new ham radio equipment…] That sounds like a Christmas wishlist, so hopefully it happens in time. If not, I don’t think we’re too far away so… GO RVVVVV!!!
______________________________________________________________
Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) – Article: “Decline in central bank reserves to 40 billion dollars” The CBI is now trying to follow the IMF directive and they are losing reserves as a result of the more liberal foreign currency auctions. The problem is they never stopped the corruption first so all they are doing is fueling the fire at this point. Iraq needs to shut down the money laundering and theft through the private banks before they can solve the auction problem. Otherwise…the reserves will be gone soon. The alternatives are not patches or plugs but sound repairs and changes. IMO, the CBI cannot continue down the same path pegged to the dollar much longer unless they can fix this soon. The alternative is a disorderly exit to a float which may not be what we want to see at this time due to the lack of laws and investors
______________________________________________________________
BGG (Dinar Guru) – […I’ve read that Iraq is on the white list and some say they aren’t. What is correct?] That is likely a “process” they are in the middle of…value is likely nearer the end – but they MUST have international support…without international support who is there to “accept” their currency?
______________________________________________________________
Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) – MOSUL! Iraq is KICKING BUTT in the “beat ISIS” department… IT’S AWESOME! You’re also going to see a good amount of good news about Oil, Parliament, Budget, and more! This is an exciting time! To summarize where we are, I think it’s as simple as this: Iraq is making short work of ISIS in Mosul. Once they have a clear victory there, which should be very soon, they have no reason to delay on the HCL, which will be another major milestone for them, and it’s a big ‘ol downhill snowball effect from there. Did I mention it’s an exciting time to be part of this?!

BGG (Dinar Guru) – [Have they prioritized the key investment laws that will set the stage for an international currency and allow capital to flow into the country…?] They have had the Investment and Banking Laws “on deck” for a while now…there is NO DOUBT the IMF has given them “the word”…investors have to have “an exit” – otherwise they WON’T ENTER…the wall of investment income they are expecting – will NEVER HAPPEN… without the investment law…when it is time – BOOM.
______________________________________________________________
BGG (Dinar Guru) – Article quote: “…predicted the financial advisor to the prime minister appearance of Mohammed Saleh approve the budget year 2017 before the end of this year…” This will answer a lot of issues… I fully expect them to codify the “functional HCL” in the 2017 budget as they have in the past...in essence – whatever the impacts of a true HCL would have been – they go ahead and allocate and draw out such agreements “loosely” in the budget…executing the impacts of the HCL without having to go through the stress of the actual process.

Frank26 (Dinar Guru) – The CBI cannot control the street market rate! Only an increase in the exchange rate can control the street market rate. Give it some power…and they did. 1,300…a slight PIP movement…which is a start. The citizens will be very proud of their currency soon. Will they start at 10 cents? 20 cents? I don’t know the rate or the date…The street rate needs the IQD to go up in value. A gradual increase in their currency is coming…the dropping of the 3 zeros. On plan…on schedule…which is exactly what they told their banks…only the IQD at the beginning of 2017. Take note, the IQD exchange rate may increase, but may take time for it to reach the international world, and I believe that is what we are going thru right now. These are the finishing touches to the monetary reform …IMO…The free-float rate…will continue to increase…which I believe will be 1 to 1… [post 2 of 2]

[Will we be able to cash in the large bills at the increased value?] The “affect” on your investment (if you have these large bills) is you will experience this surge in value… in fact, any size bills will do…it is highly likely you will be able to exchange these bills at an increased value. Obviously – why we are all here. However, none of what I portray is any long stretch – they have written directly on these subject(s).

Adviser to the Prime Minister: fees and taxes important to reduce the deficit
Economy News / Continue ….Financial Advisor to the Prime Minister emphasized the appearance of Mohammed Saleh, that in the coming 2017 budget, was “incompatible” with the demands of the International Monetary Fund, returned to “expand” non-oil imports and the application of duties and taxes which estimated “true” sets of debt and achieve a coupon of 12 percent.
Saleh said, in an interview, “The 2017 budget was in line with the demands of the International Monetary Fund, particularly in the matter of activating the non-oil resources,” he returned to those “imports from duties and taxes and other, important to reduce the budget deficit.”…

We believe…Abadi and Saleh are sending confirmations/ documentations to the IMF within the 10 days that we talked about — which are coming to a close … all BEFORE November. IMO — all an indication of their financial reform.” Overall they are talking about the Monetary Reform everywhere…and Delta found 3 sources now …and that’s why we tell you it is legit. The rate of the IQD must go up…and the Lower Denoms must be introduced. Delta said that the article when he translated said that this “DID HAPPEN” (past tense) the value of the IQD – the word “yurfaw” (sp) translated means that it did happen. Street value?

Islandg1211 (Dinar Guru) – …the WTO website page on Iraq that clearly shows that Iraq has done NOTHING for years to further their membership. Iraq hasn’t even had a working group meeting scheduled with the WTO the past few years. …the FATF website info…said that they reviewed Iraq in June and they had four more requirements to complete before getting on the White List. So, Iraq is not on the White List, nor will they be by January unless they complete the requirements state. I said last January, Barzani gave a CNN interview and stated that Mosul wouldn’t start for months, and it would take months to complete. I posted last New Years that Abadi gave a speech that day and said Mosul would be free “by the end of the year.” Iraq has years to go to join the WTO. Iraq has more steps to complete to get on the FATF White List. Mosul was never expected to get done before the end of the year.

SteveI (Dinar Guru) – Article: “Dollar is deteriorating in front of the dinar” I like the article a lot. I had a talk with a few of my guys, and they all agree that it sounds like the process has started but not made official yet. Quote: “CBI succeeded in raising the value of the Iraqi dinar against“. …in the past or previous news they would have said “in the near future“, or “coming days or months“, etc. To me succeeded means commenced or started. The other part I found very interesting is “a lot and recover the exchange rate of the Iraqi dinar“. So just exactly what are the recovering from? …Are they talking the the 3.21 rate? Another part I found positive is “after the economic scientific plan developed by organizers of the Central Bank of Iraq and new policy pursued by the Central Bank“. ...the powerful part is the word “plan”. This is something that had to have been in place previously and not just some made up statement for an article. The last thing I found interesting is the wording of “the value of the national currency exchange rate of the Iraqi dinar“. I have never seen the word of nation currency exchange rate? Could this mean international?

Islandg1211 (Dinar Guru) – Iraq is NOT on the WHITE LIST when in fact FATF states that they have FOUR MORE REQUIREMENTS LEFT. …in reviewing the FATF website today, it had no reference as to when Iraq would get on the “White List,” only the four remaining steps required. Quote from FATF’s website: “…Since June 2016, Iraq has taken steps towards improving its AML/CFT regime, including by: addressing remaining issues related to its criminalization of money laundering and terrorist financing; establishing a legal framework and procedures for identifying and freezing terrorist assets; and ensuring a fully operational and functioning financial intelligence unit. Iraq should continue to implement its action plan to address its remaining deficiencies…”

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) – [Help me understand why this is taking so long…] It’s been a long road for sure! Iraq has overcame many obstacles.

But in the grand scheme of it all… they have made amazing progress and when it’s all over, it won’t seem like it took that long.

Dollar is deteriorating in front of the Iraqi dinar.. National strikes.
The Central Bank succeeds in raising the value of Iraqi dinar to us dollar
At a critical juncture and time passes by Iraq and Iraqi economy under cover of bad war waged valiant Iraqi army and security forces and factions of the popular crowd Bible CBI succeeded in raising the value of the dinar against the U.S. dollar in recent days.
Economic and political sources informed us reported.. The dinar will improve gradually over the next few days and that the US dollar will deteriorate much Iraqi dinar exchange recover after a scientific plan developed economic operators of the Central Bank, the new Central Bank administration policy pursued in cooperation with benevolent and loving and loyal to his liberal Iraq children
And we got some gossip CBI officials and owners of some banks who form a federal power with it’s Central Bank. It was agreed to support the Iraqi dinar and each contribution to the recovery of the dinar against the dollar especially as we’re fighting a holy war with the mightiest evil forces in the world and fight terrorism in many places in Iraq…

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) – Article: “Currency auction burden on the Iraqi economy” They cannot stop the auctions until they have an alternative which is floating the dinar. And until they can demonstrate that they can manage the spread within Iraq, they will not get the green light from the IMF to exit the peg and move to Article VIII. …this is the closest we have been to reform since late 2012 when Shabibi was run off. Hang in there!

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) – [why would Iraq depeg or stop selling the dollar and “free float” the dinar? It just doesn’t seem likely…] ...is not a choice. It is not something that decided randomly, but an event as part of the CBI’s monetary policy. To simplify, the CBI has what it calls a Capital Account…in which investment funds are that come through the banking system end up in. As the Capital Account grows, so does inflationary pressure on the Iraqi economy. As a result, the CBI, must have a more flexible exchange rate (some type of float) to counter this pressure. In other words, as investors and investment comes into Iraq, the exchange rate will rise. [post 2 of 2]

That being said, the CBI is trying to do what is right and they have an agreement (SBA) with the IMF to achieve those goals…It takes time and it is a process. […can anyone…tell me why the US would give aid to Iraq without something in exchange, example, US insistence that Iraq stay pegged to the dollar?] The US has said no such thing. The IMF has stated so under the current conditions and that is because they are guiding the CBI through this financial crisis. [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) – The fight for Mosul is making incredible progress, and I really don’t think they are getting credit for it like they should be! After a long run of half-hearted attempts to “attack” ISIS, they are finally doing it RIGHT. I expect to see huge victories in the next week or so, which is going to prop up Iraq’s support and credibility in the world, and is taking them where they need to go. I am disappointed to see that Abadi has not been successful in appointing those last few deputies: Article: “State law excludes the resolution of the vacant ministries next week” In fact, unless they directly oppose this ruling, it looks like next week isn’t our week either…we’re not likely to see an RV this week. However…I saved the best for last! Ready? [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) – FINALLY, at the tail end of October, we’re seeing the stuff we want. We discussed briefly earlier this month the OPEC push to reduce oil production. There are a lot of reasons for this push, and I’d say 90+% of the member nations understand and agree with it. But here’s something interesting… “The head of the National Alliance, said that “Iraq should be excluded from any agreement that aims to cut oil production,” attributing it to “the need for Iraq without the other for this exception being locked in a fierce war with Aldaasha terrorism on behalf of the world.” Iraq is getting massive support in the fight against ISIS. …this kind of agreement is a sweetheart deal for Iraq!

Frank26 (Dinar Guru) – The IMF is in business to make money with Iraq. There is no profit at a program rate. I told you, I don’t think we’ll ever see 1 to 1. They might surprise us all with the international rate when it does come out. In the ‘70’s and ‘80’s, it used to be around $2.80. When Saddam took over, it was over $3…and the Gulf Currency is launching around $2.60 to $2.70…which is a fair number to start at. We believe that the IMF may meet on the 7th of November to see if Iraq completed all they needed to do…but IMO…meetings are ongoing now. IMO – the MR consists of the RI…and that is for the IMF. The international world which consists of the Economic Reforms…which is the RV — (which is not a part of the IMF). The RV is for the international investors. Give us Mosul…and you have the MONETARY REFORMS. Mosul is about 80-90% done. There is NO STOPPING the Monetary Reform. IMO – they are doing everything on time. The timing may frustrate you, but I think the timing is brilliant. [post 3 of 3]

Frank26 (Dinar Guru) – …within 10 business…(normally 30)…there would be some needed info passed to the IMF or in increase in the rate to qualify with what they are doing within their budget…to do a CURRENCY SWAP with the rate of the IQD against…(possibly) a basket of currencies. We believe the Abadi and Saleh are sending confirmations/documentations to the IMF within the 10 days…which are coming to a close…all BEFORE November. IMO — all an indication of their financial reform. IMO — each member of the IMF needs verification…before any change in rate…to be completed before November. IMO – that includes a rate change…that deals with contract goods. The letter to the IMF lets each member within the IMF knows of the rate. The IMF cannot finalize the agreement with Iraq until they see documentation. This will be the FINAL letter to the IMF within these 10 days. It will give the IMF a good idea of when Iraq will raise the value of their currency. [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

Frank26 (Dinar Guru) – There are things occurring behind the scenes with the Monetary Reform. IMO…countries are interested in doing business with Iraq…and Iraq is paying them …maybe the IMF is paying them…the international world is doing business with Iraq…and they are paying for their goods. WHOA! IMO — if that is true…the international world is gaining confidence with Iraq and the new ministers working with Abadi. A week ago, Sunday at 3:03 am Iraqi time…there was the “start” of the operations of Mosul…but I would say it was also the start of international business because they were put on a WHITE LIST. I believe that this TRANSITIONAL RATE that is being used…(not in front of our eyes, nor the CBI…because by law, they would have to tell you they are)…is being used…to bring in these goods. The citizens needed to trust the banks…but the international banks need to trust Iraq and their government. From black, to gray, to white …(the list)…it means they are UNRESTRICTED! This is the freedom of movement and possibly within their capital…all IMF requirements. This is the Monetary Reform being born in front of your eyes! I believe that a countdown with the IMF started around that time. [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]

In fact, several key documents plainly state otherwise. [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

But I do like the words…”a significant rise in price against the US dollar“.

Backdoc (Dinar Guru) – THE PATTERNS OF SUCCESS ARE ALL AROUND US. CURRENCIES ARE ADJUSTING AS I’VE BEEN SHARING FOR SOME TIME. I SUSPECT THE CHANGES WE ALL HOPE TO SEE ARE CLOSER THAN WE MIGHT THINK BASED ON THE “ACTIONS THAT MEAN THINGS!” …IMO.

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) – Article: “During the first economic conference of the projects directed to put up new investment opportunities in Baghdad and the provinces” private investment is all wishful thinking until they open the banking sector/pass the needed laws.

Aggiedad77 (Dinar Guru) – Iraq…may Peace be with you…as this year winds to a close and the existence of ISIS/DAASH is squashed…may you ring in the new year 2017 with PEACE in mind for all of your country and it’s countrymen…A peace that can be shared internationally as you move forward…the pathway anointed with higher oil prices that will springboard your efforts in a way that was unexpected by many…but declared by a few…Breakthroughs indeed for opportunities both within and outside of your great country…let the future be bright for prosperity and peace for all…transitions in so many ways…war to peace…program rate to who knows what…reclusive country to internationally recognized leader… reforms that give way to exponential growth…let it be…all IMO.

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) – Most of the articles coming out of Iraq say the progress in Mosul is good…ahead of schedule. I’m not so sure. Much more to come.

rcookie (Dinar Guru) – “Planning: Five-Year Development Plan 2018 – 2022 will be different from its predecessors” THAT IS THE $357 BILLION ACTION PLAN FOR DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS BROKEN DOWN BY SECTOR… INTERESTING TO COMPARE WITH PREVIOUS NDP’S…NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN…THIS IS WHY ONE WOULD INVEST IN IRAQ…THE REASON TODAYS ANNOUNCEMENT IS SO EXCITING IS THE NEW NDP AND THE FACT OF THEM TALKING ABOUT BEING PRIMARILY PRIVATE SECTOR DRIVEN.

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) – Article: “Iraq receives a second loan from the International Monetary Fund” [does this mean they have raised the value of the dinar as per apparent requirement or not?] …the official value of the dinar is 1182. There is no requirement for them to raise the value. The value will rise, only as a result of the CBI unpegging the dinar when the time is right to counter inflationary pressure created by investors and investment in Iraq. They need laws, stability and progress in many areas before that can happen.

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) – I have nothing negative to report but I also have no RV to announce… in my opinion, there’s a very simple reason: HCL. Now here’s the good news: we’ve seen more on the HCL in the last week than we saw all summer! And THAT has me smiling… Parliament is making moves… – just look at the news… The HCL (oil agreement) is once again a TOPIC… it was NOT a topic for a few months. Are we close? Obviously closer than a month ago, and I can’t say “yep for sure this week!”, but the direction is good and there are only a few things left. Iraq has the fundamental ability and motivation to RV, and that’s something that people either understand or deny. I’m monitoring the situation…

Breitling (Dinar Guru) – …They had never mentioned to the government or to the IMF or anybody that they wanted to get it to a buck and then they wanted to get it to $3.25…one of the things that’s interesting as they put out the new currency, when I got into it there was an expected rate of between 4 and 12 cents. The next thing you know there was a report put out about how General Petraeus was saying how popular the dinar was getting inside of Iraq itself. Here’s what people don’t understand…they were alarmed by it. It wasn’t a good thing…we basically put more US dollars into their economy. and they started printing even more notes…adding to the note count at the beginning. You had to have faith with what these guys were doing and saying. Shabibi stated they are adding value to it and eventually we are going to take 75% of those notes out and we’re going to add value to the currency and then we’ll change this currency out and make the denominations a lot smaller…That’s the statement he put out there.

Frank26 (Dinar Guru) – …the IMF has given them an A+ in everything they are doing…and now they are going to reward them with that second loan…that is way ahead of schedule…the white list was way ahead of schedule. …I am not too worried about the value right now…what we were worried about or concerned about was the note count…because they told you they were lifting the 000’s…you think it is from the exchange rate…we tried to explain it to you…they are lifting it from the streets…so they can lift it from the exchange rate…and I believe they have accomplished this. There are many steps and many parts to the Monetary Policy and IMO I see that they have been accomplished…the IMF has not said one single word about 2017…IMO…the IMF is preparing them to raise the value in 2016…and the other part…Iraq talks about 2017 because that is when Iraq wants to introduce the LD’s…that are affected by the RI that is occurring right now behind closed doors… [post 3 of 3]

Frank26 (Dinar Guru) – Iraq came out and stated they have completed all IMF requirements...For the Financial Advisor of Abadi…Saleh…to come out and say…we’ve done everything the IMF has told us…how bold is that…for the IMF…to actually come out and say we are giving you now your second loan…in about 10 days…that will put us right about the beginning of November…I believe deep in my heart that the Monetary Policy has been launched. This Monetary Reform Plan is from the IMF…about six or seven years ago they put this together with Iraq…the Transition Rate right now is part of this plan…I believe they are doing something with their rate to try and get it to 1 to 1…and they did not write a plan for a LOP…they did not write a plan to stay at a program rate…IMO this Transitional Rate is bringing in commodities into the country of Iraq…and IMO this Transitional Rate is slowly moving up…up…for the purpose IMO to add value to the Iraqi dinar in country…I believe the negotiations that are occurring with this Transitional Rate are going to be seen with more evidence sometime around the second week of November…

Frank26 (Dinar Guru) – …these are interesting times…with our investment…we told you that IMO I felt around the 15th of October or just after that date the battle of Mosul would…start…I seriously, truly, and sincerely believe that once Iraq was put on the white list there was a decision made for Mosul…IMO…at 3:03 am on the 16th of this month I believe the Monetary Reform was put into its full swing of completion. The most important thing about Mosul…is that it has given us SS…STABILITY and SECURITY…SS is the reason why we are walking in the direction of the Monetary Reform now…from the nanosecond they were put on the white list…to the moment of the 3:03 am launch to attack Mosul…to begin the battle…those were the beginning of the green lights that have brought us SS now… [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]

Breitling (Dinar Guru) – “Question: Sounds like they’re having a hard time convincing people in Iraq to have confidence in the Dinar…how can they make them want to use it?” This is the power in knowing what happens to currency…if you know how it got there you can reverse it. Remember what we did. We put US dollars in their economy. Then we did Shock and Awe and their economy collapsed they started to use the US dollar. We printed the New Iraqi Dinar. They started using it. Remember…the dinar count at that time was around 30 Trillion dinar at it’s peak and 9 billion notes max…A report from the IMF said the Iraqi dinar’s real market rate was between 4 and 12 cents and I bought dinars based on that.

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) – Article: “Rasheed Bank intends to apply to transfer your money IBAN system” Quote: “Rasheed Bank announced on Thursday its intention to apply the “IBAN” your system to transfer money in and out of Iraq…” [Surely to transfer money internationally , your money has to be internationally recognized?] The dinar is already internationally recognized. It’s a choice by most banks to not accept it and exchange it worldwide because they are still in Article XIV under the IMF. Article VIII of sorts provides a sense of assurance that the CBI meets international standards and requirements (and therefore, makes the dinar more internationally accepted at the banks). What the Rasheed is doing here is a good thing for sure, but Article VIII will also be needed for it to be beneficial to Iraq.

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) – Ive been watching the efforts to take back Mosul. (It’s all over the news). I’m hearing VERY good things from my contacts in Iraq, backing up the positive stuff we are all seeing in regards to the fight against isis. I like it. Also good news is hearing about parliament continuing to hold timely sessions. Next stop… hcl? Let’s hope so! …nobody is giving me dates or rates. I talk to people that are far more connected to the inside workings of Iraq than I myself am, and I’ll be blunt – there’s been times that they flat out told me “Adam nothing is moving right now.” Thats not the vibe right now. …I’m returning to cautiously optimistic that we will see some major announcements that will either include the HCL or will be obvious openers for the HCL.

Frank26 (Dinar Guru) – Article: “The government issued a system of deposit protection .. Parliament seeks to enacted law “enhance confidence” in the banking system” Another IMF Requirement for the MR being done…Good.
