tman23 (Dinar Researcher) – The elections and then appointments of positions in Iraq GOI was a mere game of musical chairs…same players, different appointed position…AND they did not begin to move into reforms until the poor population began demonstrating and was preparing to “burn the house down'” per se’… The reforms so far have been 99% cosmetic. They claim that after EID they will pass the laws that will enforce/re-enforce the reforms.  The only one I care about is the investment law…once this is passed and new foreign contracts along with investment come into play…this influx of money and the accounting with/without 3 zeros will be the determining factor of which way the IQD moves.

tlm724 (Dinar Guru) – Article quotes:  “Saleh, said that investment protection is the only and the main way to raise the economic growth in the country”   “the investment essential and important issue of protection of the fact that the country has no alternative to economic growth and raise the rates of development, but from investments overseas”  …Saleh is saying one way to make the needed adjustments to the economy is bring in foreign investors and their money, they gotta pass that investment law and protect the investment or no one is going to invest!

Millionday – SO…TOMORROW THEY HAVE STATED IN INK THAT THEY WILL VOTE MINUTES AFTER THE FEAST ON THE INVESTMENT LAW AND MANY MORE LAWS AS WELL — SO ACCORDING TO REPORTS.  WE HAVE LEARNED THIS INCLUDES AT LEAST — NATIONAL GUARD, INVESTMENT, FEDERAL COURT ACT, THE CIVIL SERVICE, RETIREMENT, AND THE NATIONAL RECONCILIATION LAW THAT IS NEEDED FOR THE PROJECT IN A VERY SHORT PERIOD AS WELL. THIS IS HUGE AND WITHIN A DAY BY WHAT I HAVE SEEN — PRAYING FOR NO HOLDUPS.  [if they are to vote on laws minutes after their feast…what time might that be for us?] WE SHOULD KNOW TOMORROW NIGHT.  [post 2 of 2]

Millionday – Article qutoe:  “Detection of the House of Representatives deputy rapporteur on the mass of the citizen Niazi architecture Ihsanoglu, Thursday, for the preparation of more than a dozen laws; for a vote after the Eid al-Adha.”  SO AS WE SEE — THE LAWS THAT ARE OF GREAT GREAT IMPORTANCE ARE BEING VOTED THROUGH ALL AT ONCE AFTER THE FEAST.  TODAY [SATURDAY] IS THE LAST DAY OF EID …TOMORROW  [SUNDAY] IS THE FEAST — NOW THE REASON(S) WE FIND THIS SO EXCITING…ARE…ALL THE YEARS I HAVE BEEN RESEARCHING — I REMEMBER WORK BY GOVERNMENT DIRECTLY AFTER THE EID FEAST…   [post 1of 2….stay tuned]

tlm724 – my opinion is this, Iraq had no choice but to activate the private sector, they can no longer depend on oil with the likes of Iran getting back in the game so they forge boldly ahead despite the opposition to change, the Supreme religious leaders are saying enough is enough, no more talk it is time for action! That is reassuring to me that Iraq is finally on the right path and is making that transition to a free market economy and with that comes a strong dinar.

Poppy3 – …zero date has been given for the rv or new rate?   all that has been said by many ligitimate sources ARE INDICATING THAT BEGINNING ON OCT 1 THINGS START HAPPENING TO COMPLETE AND MEET THE FINAL DEADLINE TO ENABLE IRAQ TO FINISH FINANCIAL REFORM AND HAVE ALL LAWS AND INCULDE THE NEW RATE RELEASE ON THE NEW VALUE DURING THE MONTH OF OCT.  
______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat – President Masuam told us earlier this week that FULL RECONCILIATION would be completed and announced after Eid.  I was told that full reconciliation means that all the critical needed reforms would be completed.  These reforms needed laws to implement them…So this is now what we watch for. What are these last remaining laws we wait for?  …the Federation Council…the National Guard law…the Amnesty law…the announcement of the Judicial Reforms bill being passed and implemented… Investment law.  I believe these last remaining reform laws are that “basket of laws” that will hit us all at once very suddenly after the Eid holiday.  We are in the absolute best window ever to see Iraq have a significant increase in the value of their currency sooner than later.   [post 2 of 2]

Mnt Goat – I need to emphasize that we are about to enter one of the most pivotal times in the weeks ahead since I have been in this investment. Remember early October is coming upon us very quickly. There is a target in place and I believe they are pushing forward to attempt to meet it. The big question is will Iraq be ready?  The reason we have not seen the RV yet, even though there has been many windows of opportunity planned…is because THEY HAVE NOT YET COMPLETED THE AGREED TO REFORMS! The PTB will continue to hold it back until Iraq meets its obligations even though they plan these RV windows ahead of time. I expect an explosion of news come next week since Eid ends on Sunday 9/27.   [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

IT MEANS…WHOOPOW!  Quote: “House vote on the draft amendment to the Investment Law Minutes after the Eid al-Adha.”  WOW INVESTMENT LAW WITHIN MINUTES.  IN ORDER FOR THESE THINGS TO EVEN BE SOMETHING TO BE EXCITED ABOUT (NATIONAL RECONCILIATION CONFERENCE AND THE FIRST ISLAMIC BANK OPENING) — THE INVESTMENT LAW WOULD ALMOST HAVE TO BE VOTED WITHIN MINUTES AFTER THE EID FEAST IMO.   ALSO I READ 12 OTHER LAWS AS WELL.  SO HOLD YOUR HAT AND PRAY.   [post 2 of 2]

tman23 – This post 2015 summit taking place is quite different then in the past.  All the players are coming to town per se’.  Then the majors will meet in council.  Abadi is scheduled to be in town.  YEA it’s a UN Meeting on counter terrorism… BITE ME! They will meet and media will cover it…But it isn’t why all the majors are here including the Pope.   (If) They all come to agree and then comes the rebuilding of world infrastructure with several trillions to invest… All this is being completed before Oct 6th… USA fiscal year funds get released on the 6th… Iraq has held off on the investment law for a reason of timing in accordance to this meeting.  [post 2 of 2]
______________________________________________________________

tman23 – Question is…Why did Iraq Parliament pull from the scheduled vote on the investment law on the eve of the vote back in Nov 2014 at the request of Abadi? Question is…Why was the vote scheduled once again on May 25th and instead went into a closed meeting for 12 hrs working on nothing but the investment law…and was said that upon Jabouri’s return from meeting in Germany, Europe required some additional changes to the investment law. Question is…The amendments to the law have been completed for quite sometime since May 25th and there is no opposition to it… Question is why has it not been voted on? They have not opened the window for loans, foreign contracts etc..etc… BUT they did close out old contracts by paying out 9 billion dollars AND the new contracts are on hold…WHY?  They have announced the offering/sale of international bonds on/after Oct 1st.  Why not sell the bonds before Oct 1st? INVESTMENT LAW IS THE INTERNATIONAL KEY.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

tman23 – GOP leaders face an Oct. 1 deadline to approve a bill to keep the government open…Because a funding bill that blocked money for Planned Parenthood could not pass the Senate, they (Repubs) have no clear path forward for doing so without working with Democrats — something that could spur a conservative move against Boehner……. Thus his announcement to RESIGN…… BUT take NOTE……Oct 1st is a date that appears for many events…..AND although the GOP wants to delay the US Budget over planned parenthood…. it will pass……. AND Iraq has until the 11th to get their budget infront of their Parliment………. It’s a new world after October 6th…… And as the Pope just said…..it’s a new world and promising at the opening of the world summit today (which as I said in the past, he opens it with a speech at 3pm)….

THE BANKERS IN VN WHERE TOLD LAST YEAR TO EXPECT 02.3 TO .05 CENTS. TIME WILL TELL BUT I AM READY EATHER WAY.   …HOPE THE TALK AND DISCUSSING ABOUT THE POSSIBILITY OF THE DONG RATE CHANGING IS AT LEAST A TRUE INDICATION THEY ARE ABOUT TO REVAL THE DONG.

Frank26 – [When they talk about being put on the black list, is that because they fail to pass the Laws that are needed for the MR or the laws that will help the process of the MR]  Many Laws for many reasons and Yes some for the MR.  Some direct some indirect. IMO…DRS is the LAVA FLOW…When we see him we will feel the MR’s Heat!   […i think the real eye opener is going to be what laws are they gonna pass after EID…that may be the turning point in the speed of this MR i pray its sooner rather than later and Iraq does something with their currency.]  Your words were in perfect combination…YES… i agree with You.
______________________________________________________________

Kaperoni – I think the reality is…that the reserves will continue to erode as the IMF and others have stated if they don’t fix the problems quickly.  Unpegging the currency is not an option at this point until the conditions turn for the better.  So they have to find alternative sources of revenue, increase oil production, reduce corruption, etc. in order to sustain the auctions.  It’s up to them.  Otherwise, the reserves will continue to go down…which will end hurting the confidence in the dinar, and ultimately as some have said (Bloomberg), the dinar will need to be devalued.

Iraq’s Kirkuk may be key to national reconciliation

Iraq’s Kirkuk province has long been identified as a fulcrum for political and ethnic tensions, with the potential to make or break national reconciliation efforts between Kurds, Arabs and Turkmen. With each passing week, Kirkuk rises on the agenda of Iraqi politicians and the province is becoming a focal point for Arab-Kurdish and intra-Kurdish politicking.

Kirkuk is currently central to five interlocking sets of conflicts. The first is the fight against the self-styled Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) group, which is slowing down in central Iraq and which has been largely static along the Kurdish-ISIL front line for many months. The US-led coalition now needs to generate a new northern front against ISIL that fuses together Sunni Arab paramilitaries with Kurdish and international support. Kirkuk is the launchpad for operations against the adjacent ISIL redoubt in Hawija…

Aggiedad77 – Article:  “Parliamentary investment: the political differences about the investment law passed will not hinder”  Big news with this draft of amendments for this law…it should be put up for a vote sometime shortly after the upcoming holiday…watch for this to happen…another important law that could impact the Iraqi economy and the MR in a big way if it is passed and fully implemented…Investors should find their road into Iraq a much easier trip than what has been experienced with red tape and much corruption in the past… IMO…this could be a part of a “package” of events leading up to 10/4…

BGG – [Corruption…Corruption…Corruption!!!]  “they are attacking it on every level“… attacking corruption – this is a good thing.  …recently (last day or two) I have been hearing as early as the 24th thru about the 29th and if they miss that one then just prior to the UN Gen assembly – if they miss that window, no later than the end of the first week of October.  LET ME BE CLEAR… THIS IS NOT MY OPINION (only something I have heard)…in fact, the only reason I bothered to mention it – it was based on them dealing with a bit more of this corruption and then they would move ahead… so I believe any of this? Maybe 50/50.   [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Mnt Goat – Wanted to keep you updated on the fight against ISIS and DAASH since after all the physical security of Iraq is a large factor is whether they are going to RV sooner than later. Seems the USA strategy is working to push ISIS and DAASH back into Syria. You see they must isolate them and confine them. Once this is done it is much easier to remove them. Once across the boarders of Iraq they can then secure the boarders.
______________________________________________________________

Adam Montana – Man, oh, man… are things moving slowwwwww right now.  And even as slow as things feel right now, you need…to understand that Abadi IS getting stuff done, and we are DEFINITELY on the right track.  I’ll give that two thumbs up, even though we are still waiting on the HCL. [The HCL: Any chance of that being resolved before Dec.?]  HCL – yes, I do have high hopes for pre-December!  […how confident do you feel that an RV may happen before the end of the year?]  Provided the HCL goes through, I am optimistic. On a scale of 1-10: Cake.

Millionday – YEARS WE HAVE WAITED TO SEE THE BANKS FUNDED AND THE PRIVATE SECTOR AWAKE.  THEY APPEAR TO HAVE THE SOLUTION TO THE FINANCIAL STRESS IN IRAQ.  THE INITIAL OIL DROP IN PRICING CREATED LACK OF PROJECTS — THE MANY BELOW POVERTY AND OTHER PRESSURES REQUIRES ACTION.  IRAQ IS CONFIDENT THAT THEY CAN OVERCOME THEIR ECONOMIC DOWNFALL THROUGH REFORMS — WHOOPOW.

Frank26 – BIG DRAMATIC CHANGE…remember our #1 concern…SECURITY…it’s now being done faster than ever imagined in Iraq…this is the opinion of I-Team.  …today there was a precision coalition air strike on Ramadi…apparently so precise was this attack that it put a great fear into al-Baghdadi, the leader of ISIS….he’s taking his thugs and running back to Syria…They are LEAVING Ramadi…watch for this in the next day or so…What is so SURPRISING is the AMAZING speed we believe things to be happening… TODAY.  This precision air strike seems to have triggered something…the Team is not sharing “what” but they are looking towards Oct 4 for something or some things to happen.  Watching between Oct 4-8 to see if the Iraqis follow through…confidence level of this is at 50% and IOO (In Our Opinion) could keep growing…and…hopefully the Iraqis will take advantage of us helping to prop up the MR(Monetary Reform).  They know we want to help…they know we are there to help…the news should get interesting inside a day or two from now…watch for it.

Mnt Goat – What is really happening with the Mastercards?   ...these cards WILL NOT GO INTERNATIONAL until the currency is once again back on the international global exchanges. They can not use these cards outside of Iraq until this happens. Using the cards outside of Iraq means – the IQD rates will have to be in the international exchanges  which enables the link to the conversion programs so  the new currency can be converted from the country of origin’s currency amount…this did not yet happen…

Frank26 – I believe that Maliki will be the next thing.  If this would have happened sooner, Maliki would have been control of the monetary reform.  We knew Maliki was a snake … but we got into bed with him. The timing of all of these things are incredible.   400 Million Dollars (USD) was being sold in Iraq … that was a big boost for the USA … so we used Maliki.  …sometimes it appears that Iraq is in control – and that is true when it comes to their “laws” … but the US has the powers of the green-light. The laws are important because the investors and the stock-market can’t succeed without them.  Well over 100 GOI officials were fired and were replaced with US trained Iraqi’s. In my opinion – they fired every crook!  We are not messing around!  Nobody “invited” us back – but we’re tired of the “lip-service” … so we’re back!  Iraq needs to arrest Maliki … not the US. The day you see Maliki arrested … Then you’ll know we are extremely close.  [post 2 of 2]

tman23 – Article quote:  “Al-Abadi, Al-Jaafari will visit the United States, after the Eid al-Adha”, adding that Jaafari’s visit “will precede the visit Abadi, where he is scheduled to attend UN General Assembly meetings.”   Very VERY interesting… The post 2015 summit concludes 10/1 and then they will go to council and if all are in agreement…Funds will be free for release…several trillions for global infrastructure building etc.   …the timing of Abadi’s arrival is suspicious…we will never know but certainly have the right to speculate that…IRAQ is in the PLAN!!   And if that is the case (which I am 99.99999% convinced it is)… Oct 6th the release is to happen upon agreement…and that is when the US fiscal year begins with funds to be released…and Obama is calling to get the US Budget passed now…But no doubt…The world PTB have some plan that is about to be initiated.

BGG – the Moody’s rating is good news…whatever it means (exactly) them having a ratings outlook is good…and by the by – it is only a “provisional rating” on their bonds only – however, it’s essentially the data and info they would use on a sovereign credit rating… overall, and in light of the severity of their situation, I took this report as generally realistic..: and positive… as a credit rating agency – it is vital they are reliable in their portrayal to investors… still a reasonably decent outlook – “stable with instituational risk” is probably an accurate picture…What they have “in the ground” and what they can pump, process and sell are two very different numbers… and this is their short term issue – PERIOD.  they are still spending too much based on the 2015 deficit and bad projection of oil prices. They have short term crisis – they have discussed (privately) bridging this gap with some emergency currency move…however, until this political corruption is “cornered” they are still discussing options
______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat – We are off to a start of a fantastic week! In the many years of following this saga I have never seen such progress move so fast. Some element is definitely behind supporting Abadi and his council.    These next coming weeks should be very interesting.  I also want to say that when Iraq is ready to revalue their currency and come back as an international player it will just happen. NOTHING WILL STOP IT.

Frank26 – they are running out of time to do this. The Marshal Plan is Bush’s baby. Dr. Shabibi is getting older and fragile … and I believe that speed is a big factor now.  Why is Dr. Shabibi important? He knows the software. He’s been protected by the USA (in my opinion) for the last 2 years. ISIS and DAASH is running. Think about it … why would we send Special Opps into the CBI? That was the first place they went. They didn’t need numbers from the CBI … they already knew them.  The so called “audit’ of the CBI was a bunch of BS…all of this was done at night so that the mission could be accomplished. We believe the Special Opps did this for Dr. Shabibi – not Allik.   Dr. Shabibi was given control of the green-light.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

The Exchange Rate of Foreign Currency in Economic Feasibility Studies 

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.

Estimate the shadow price of foreign currency:…

tman23 (Dinar Researcher) – This post 2015 summit taking place is quite different then in the past.  All the players are coming to town per se’.  Then the majors will meet in council.  Abadi is scheduled to be in town.  YEA it’s a UN Meeting on counter terrorism… BITE ME! They will meet and media will cover it…But it isn’t why all the majors are here including the Pope.   (If) They all come to agree and then comes the rebuilding of world infastructure with several trillions to invest… All this is being completed before Oct 6th… USA fiscal year funds get released on the 6th… Iraq has held off on the investment law for a reason of timing in accordance to this meeting.  [post 2 of 2]
______________________________________________________________

tman23 (Dinar Researcher) – Question is…Why did Iraq Parliment pull from the scheduled vote on the investment law on the eve of the vote back in Nov 2014 at the request of Abadi? Question is…Why was the vote scheduled once again on May 25th and instead went into a closed meeting for 12 hrs working on nothing but the investment law…and was said that upon Jabouri’s return from meeting in Germany, Europe required some additional changes to the investment law. Question is…The amendments to the law have been completed for quite sometime since May 25th and there is no opposition to it… Question is why has it not been voted on? They have not opened the window for loans, foreign contracts etc..etc… BUT they did close out old contracts by paying out 9 billion dollars AND the new contracts are on hold…WHY?  They have announced the offering/sale of international bonds on/after Oct 1st.  Why not sell the bonds before Oct 1st? INVESTMENT LAW IS THE INTERNATIONAL KEY.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Millionday (Dinar News Researcher) – Article quote:  “This reform package calls for setting aside officials that demonstrators have demanded be held accountable to have them ripped of their impunity; approving the oil and gas law; the law on parties and federal courts; covenant laws; federal parliament law; amnesty law and laws on national reconciliation, and the national guard law.”   THE DEMONSTRATORS HAVE BEEN ON ALL WORLD NEWS AND IT IS A HUGE ISSUE THAT LAWS NEEDED FOR THE REFORM ARE BEING HELD UP.  PARLIAMENT STEPPED FORWARD AND REMOVED THE OFFICIALS THE DEMONSTRATORS FEEL HAVE A DIRECT LINK TO THE HOLD UP OF THE VERY IMPORTANT 9 LAWS THAT THE REFORMS/IRAQ NEED IN PLACE — THEREFORE REMOVING THE BARRIERPARLIAMENT HAS MADE IT VERY CLEAR THAT PEACE IS OF THE GREATEST IMPORTANCE AND HAVE DEMANDED THE OFFICIALS STANDING IN THE WAY BE REMOVE

tman23 (Dinar Researcher) – GOP leaders face an Oct. 1 deadline to approve a bill to keep the government open…Because a funding bill that blocked money for Planned Parenthood could not pass the Senate, they (Repubs) have no clear path forward for doing so without working with Democrats — something that could spur a conservative move against Boehner……. Thus his announcement to RESIGN…… BUT take NOTE……Oct 1st is a date that appears for many events…..AND although the GOP wants to delay the US Budget over planned parenthood…. it will pass……. AND Iraq has until the 11th to get their budget infront of their Parliment………. It’s a new world after October 6th…… And as the Pope just said…..it’s a new world and promising at the opening of the world summit today (which as I said in the past, he opens it with a speech at 3pm)….

Millionday (Dinar Researcher) – Article quote:  “The Iraqi Parliament on Tuesday, August 11th debated and approved its own reform package to complete Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi’s decision.”  PARLIAMENT IS TALKING ABOUT REFORMS…CHANGES THEY WILL MAKE.   IRAQ`S REFORM PACKAGE IS AT THIS TIME VERY WELL KNOWN– ABADI HAS LAUNCHED THE REFORMS (THIS MEANS THE STEPS HAVE BEGUN AS THEY CAN BE DONE IN PARALLEL WITH LAWS AND REGULATION BEING PUT IN PLACE).  ON AUGUST 11TH, 2015 –PARLIAMENT ALSO APPROVED ITS OWN REFORM PACKAGE SO THEY MAY ALIGN THEIR WORK TO THE REFORMS ABADI IS LAUNCHING NOW.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

THE BANKERS IN VN WHERE TOLD LAST YEAR TO EXPECT 02.3 TO .05 CENTS. TIME WILL TELL BUT I AM READY EATHER WAY.   …HOPE THE TALK AND DISCUSSING ABOUT THE POSSIBILITY OF THE DONG RATE CHANGING IS AT LEAST A TRUE INDICATION THEY ARE ABOUT TO REVAL THE DONG.

firefly (Dinar Researcher) – Article quote: “…the House of Representatives decided during its meeting held on 16 September of this, throughout the second draft amendment to the Law of Investment Law No. 13 of 2006 until after the Eid al-Adha holiday…”   It is not required but it is needed!!  The 29th will tell us a lot.

Frank26 (Dinar Guru) – [When they talk about being put on the black list, is that because they fail to pass the Laws that are needed for the MR or the laws that will help the process of the MR]  Many Laws for many reasons and Yes some for the MR.  Some direct some indirect. IMO…DRS is the LAVA FLOW…When we see him we will feel the MR’s Heat!   […i think the real eye opener is going to be what laws are they gonna pass after EID…that may be the turning point in the speed of this MR i pray its sooner rather than later and Iraq does something with their currency.]  Your words were in perfect combination…YES… i agree with You.
______________________________________________________________

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) – I think the reality is…that the reserves will continue to erode as the IMF and others have stated if they don’t fix the problems quickly.  Unpegging the currency is not an option at this point until the conditions turn for the better.  So they have to find alternative sources of revenue, increase oil production, reduce corruption, etc. in order to sustain the auctions.  It’s up to them.  Otherwise, the reserves will continue to go down…which will end hurting the confidence in the dinar, and ultimately as some have said (Bloomberg), the dinar will need to be devalued.

Iraq’s Kirkuk may be key to national reconciliation

Iraq’s Kirkuk province has long been identified as a fulcrum for political and ethnic tensions, with the potential to make or break national reconciliation efforts between Kurds, Arabs and Turkmen. With each passing week, Kirkuk rises on the agenda of Iraqi politicians and the province is becoming a focal point for Arab-Kurdish and intra-Kurdish politicking.

Kirkuk is currently central to five interlocking sets of conflicts. The first is the fight against the self-styled Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) group, which is slowing down in central Iraq and which has been largely static along the Kurdish-ISIL front line for many months. The US-led coalition now needs to generate a new northern front against ISIL that fuses together Sunni Arab paramilitaries with Kurdish and international support. Kirkuk is the launchpad for operations against the adjacent ISIL redoubt in Hawija…

Aggiedad77 (Dinar Guru) – Article:  “Parliamentary investment: the political differences about the investment law passed will not hinder”  Big news with this draft of amendments for this law…it should be put up for a vote sometime shortly after the upcoming holiday…watch for this to happen…another important law that could impact the Iraqi economy and the MR in a big way if it is passed and fully implemented…Investors should find their road into Iraq a much easier trip than what has been experienced with red tape and much corruption in the past… IMO…this could be a part of a “package” of events leading up to 10/4…

BGG – I was…asked what I thought about 2016 and then something along the lines of “what if we get to this first week of Oct – does that mean we’re into 2016“?   My response was – “we will really have to get to that place and see what’s been done”… I highly doubt there is any guarantee we land in 2016 without some shift in value – however, I am much more focused on these reforms and attacking corruption than anything else…the progress they make (on this corruption) will decide for me what my opinion will be.  [post 2 of 2]
______________________________________________________________

BGG – [Corruption…Corruption…Corruption!!!]  “they are attacking it on every level“… attacking corruption – this is a good thing.  …recently (last day or two) I have been hearing as early as the 24th thru about the 29th and if they miss that one then just prior to the UN Gen assembly – if they miss that window, no later than the end of the first week of October.  LET ME BE CLEAR… THIS IS NOT MY OPINION (only something I have heard)…in fact, the only reason I bothered to mention it – it was based on them dealing with a bit more of this corruption and then they would move ahead… so I believe any of this? Maybe 50/50.   [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Aggiedad77 (Dinar Guru) – Article:  “Abadi first speaker summit of the United Nations against terrorism”   So the news has been saying that PM Abadi will head to the US just after their upcoming holiday…he’s first up on a list of speakers talking about terrorism issues on a global scale with the United Nations…probably a quick trip on his part and the part of their Foreign Minister as well…both seeking more military support from the US during this trip as well.

Mnt Goat (Dinar Guru) – Wanted to keep you updated on the fight against ISIS and DAASH since after all the physical security of Iraq is a large factor is whether they are going to RV sooner than later. Seems the USA strategy is working to push ISIS and DAASH back into Syria. You see they must isolate them and confine them. Once this is done it is much easier to remove them. Once across the boarders of Iraq they can then secure the boarders.
______________________________________________________________

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) – Man, oh, man… are things moving slowwwwww right now.  And even as slow as things feel right now, you need…to understand that Abadi IS getting stuff done, and we are DEFINITELY on the right track.  I’ll give that two thumbs up, even though we are still waiting on the HCL. [The HCL: Any chance of that being resolved before Dec.?]  HCL – yes, I do have high hopes for pre-December!  […how confident do you feel that an RV may happen before the end of the year?]  Provided the HCL goes through, I am optimistic. On a scale of 1-10: Cake.

Millionday (Dinar Researcher) – YEARS WE HAVE WAITED TO SEE THE BANKS FUNDED AND THE PRIVATE SECTOR AWAKE.  THEY APPEAR TO HAVE THE SOLUTION TO THE FINANCIAL STRESS IN IRAQ.  THE INITIAL OIL DROP IN PRICING CREATED LACK OF PROJECTS — THE MANY BELOW POVERTY AND OTHER PRESSURES REQUIRES ACTION.  IRAQ IS CONFIDENT THAT THEY CAN OVERCOME THEIR ECONOMIC DOWNFALL THROUGH REFORMS — WHOOPOW.
______________________________________________________________

Frank26 (Dinar Guru) – BIG DRAMATIC CHANGE…remember our #1 concern…SECURITY…it’s now being done faster than ever imagined in Iraq…this is the opinion of I-Team.  …today there was a precision coalition air strike on Ramadi…apparently so precise was this attack that it put a great fear into al-Baghdadi, the leader of ISIS….he’s taking his thugs and running back to Syria…They are LEAVING Ramadi…watch for this in the next day or so…What is so SURPRISING is the AMAZING speed we believe things to be happening… TODAY.  This precision air strike seems to have triggered something…the Team is not sharing “what” but they are looking towards Oct 4 for something or some things to happen.  Watching between Oct 4-8 to see if the Iraqis follow through…confidence level of this is at 50% and IOO (In Our Opinion) could keep growing…and…hopefully the Iraqis will take advantage of us helping to prop up the MR(Monetary Reform).  They know we want to help…they know we are there to help…the news should get interesting inside a day or two from now…watch for it.

Mnt Goat (Dinar Guru) – We are off to a start of a fantastic week! In the many years of following this saga I have never seen such progress move so fast. Some element is definitely behind supporting Abadi and his council.    These next coming weeks should be very interesting.  I also want to say that when Iraq is ready to revalue their currency and come back as an international player it will just happen. NOTHING WILL STOP IT.

Frank26 (Dinar Guru) – they are running out of time to do this. The Marshal Plan is Bush’s baby. Dr. Shabibi is getting older and fragile … and I believe that speed is a big factor now.  Why is Dr. Shabibi important? He knows the software. He’s been protected by the USA (in my opinion) for the last 2 years. ISIS and DAASH is running. Think about it … why would we send Special Opps into the CBI? That was the first place they went. They didn’t need numbers from the CBI … they already knew them.  The so called “audit’ of the CBI was a bunch of BS…all of this was done at night so that the mission could be accomplished. We believe the Special Opps did this for Dr. Shabibi – not Allik.   Dr. Shabibi was given control of the green-light.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

The Exchange Rate of Foreign Currency in Economic Feasibility Studies 

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.

Estimate the shadow price of foreign currency:…

Frank26 (Dinar Guru) – [When they talk about being put on the black list, is that because they fail to pass the Laws that are needed for the MR or the laws that will help the process of the MR]  Many Laws for many reasons and Yes some for the MR.  Some direct some indirect. IMO…DRS is the LAVA FLOW…When we see him we will feel the MR’s Heat!   […i think the real eye opener is going to be what laws are they gonna pass after EID…that may be the turning point in the speed of this MR i pray its sooner rather than later and Iraq does something with their currency.]  Your words were in perfect combination…YES… i agree with You.
______________________________________________________________

Kaperoni (Dinar Guru) – I think the reality is…that the reserves will continue to erode as the IMF and others have stated if they don’t fix the problems quickly.  Unpegging the currency is not an option at this point until the conditions turn for the better.  So they have to find alternative sources of revenue, increase oil production, reduce corruption, etc. in order to sustain the auctions.  It’s up to them.  Otherwise, the reserves will continue to go down…which will end hurting the confidence in the dinar, and ultimately as some have said (Bloomberg), the dinar will need to be devalued.

Albzona: Abadi, we were promised a review of the sales tax to be applied in the province of Basra ports

protests over Tariff LawsChairman of the Basra Governorate Council Albzona morning revealed the agreement with the prime minister Haider al-Abadi review sales tax decision on the ports of Basra, which recently applied in the province without other ports among the latter decided to study the subject to take the appropriate decision.

Aggiedad77 (Dinar Guru) – [When they talk about being put on the black list, is that because they fail to pass the Laws that are needed for the MR or the laws that will help the process of the MR?]  IMO…it meant that if they failed to put in place the necessary tools to combat money laundering issues they would find themselves on the black list…again IMO…now that they have passed their Anti-Money Laundering Law…I think the black list is not so much a worry. […i think the real eye opener is going to be what laws are they gonna pass after EID…that may be the turning point in the speed of this MR i pray its sooner rather than later and Iraq does something with their currency. Yes indeed…watch for it…after the holiday…could be exciting and hopeful.

Aggiedad77 (Dinar Guru) – Article:  “The beginning of next month .. the opening of the first Islamic bank in the Iraq government”  Here’s your sign...things from a security standpoint must be looking better…improving otherwise international banks would not want to expose their assets or their employees to areas that may not be secure…even with one branch soon to open in Fallujah, Anbar province…how about that.

Iraq’s Kirkuk may be key to national reconciliation

Iraq’s Kirkuk province has long been identified as a fulcrum for political and ethnic tensions, with the potential to make or break national reconciliation efforts between Kurds, Arabs and Turkmen. With each passing week, Kirkuk rises on the agenda of Iraqi politicians and the province is becoming a focal point for Arab-Kurdish and intra-Kurdish politicking.

Kirkuk is currently central to five interlocking sets of conflicts. The first is the fight against the self-styled Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) group, which is slowing down in central Iraq and which has been largely static along the Kurdish-ISIL front line for many months. The US-led coalition now needs to generate a new northern front against ISIL that fuses together Sunni Arab paramilitaries with Kurdish and international support. Kirkuk is the launchpad for operations against the adjacent ISIL redoubt in Hawija…

BGG – [i have a thought, we have an anti money laundering bill because of the threat from IMF. …the federal court law, national guard law and amnesty laws…anyone know where we stand with these important laws?]   I doubt those three laws get done until “post-Maliki. They arrest him – they sail right through. You watch.  Investment Law may go right after the 29th (according to the news).

Millionday (Dinar Researcher) – THEY ARE STATING THAT AFTER EID THEY WILL GO THROUGH — PARLIAMENT WILL HOST ABADI — AND THE LAWS PREPARED WILL BE ACTIVE ALONG WITH THE SALE OF BONDS DOMESTICALLY AND ALSO THE REFORMS ACTIVE BUT — WE WILL HAVE TO WAIT FOR ACTION BEFORE WE KNOW. …THE LAWS THEY WERE STATING WOULD HAVE TO BE VOTED THROUGH.  I HAVE TO SAY –I AM SHOCKED OVER THE LIST.   [would that include the change in a rate too?] A MARKET ECONOMY IS THE GOAL OF THE GOVERNMENT PROGRAMS AND THE CONSTITUTION — SO WE WILL WAIT TO SEE WHEN THE INTERNATIONAL PRICE OF CURRENCY IS RELEASED FOR THE MARKET [post 2 of 2]
______________________________________________________________

Millionday (Dinar Researcher) – Article quote:  “The Iraqi Parliament on Tuesday, August 11th debated and approved its own reform package to complete Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi’s decision. This reform package calls for setting aside officials that demonstrators have demanded be held accountable to have them ripped of their impunity; approving the oil and gas law; the law on parties and federal courts; covenant laws; federal parliament law; amnesty law and laws on national reconciliation, and the national guard law.”  I AM IN SHOCK OVER THIS… I…HAVE NO WAY TO VERIFY — IT COULD BE TRUE — HOPE IT IS.  THESE ARE VERY IMPORTANT LAWS THAT ARE EXPECTED TO BE IN PLACE FOR THE NATIONAL RECONCILIATION CONFERENCE THAT THEY ARE AND THE UN IS PROMOTING [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

BGG – [Isn’t their fiscal year begin 10/1, thus doesn’t their budget run on the fiscal year as well. At that point, doesn’t the revaluation have to be implemented into the 2016 budget?]  when they have dealt with the thieves and obstructionists – the door is open… when they move it is just a calculation. I doubt it has to parallel a budget time-line.
______________________________________________________________

Aggiedad77 (Dinar Guru) – Article:  “Parliamentary investment: the political differences about the investment law passed will not hinder”  Big news with this draft of amendments for this law…it should be put up for a vote sometime shortly after the upcoming holiday…watch for this to happen…another important law that could impact the Iraqi economy and the MR in a big way if it is passed and fully implemented…Investors should find their road into Iraq a much easier trip than what has been experienced with red tape and much corruption in the past… IMO…this could be a part of a “package” of events leading up to 10/4…

Millionday (Dinar Researcher) – Quote:  Deputy Special Representative of the Secretary General of the United Nations in Iraq, George Posten, hello attendees, and advance thanks to the musician Naseer Shamma, calling for activating the national reconciliation and to stand as one hand against terrorism and the rebuilding of Iraq…”  GEORGE POSTEN CALLING FOR THE ACTIVATION FOR THE NATIONAL RECONCILIATION…THIS IS SO ENCOURAGING.  TIME FOR THE REBUILD OF IRAQ…THIS IS SO VERY EXCITING.  I FEEL LIKE WE ARE LOOKING AT SO MANY PUZZLE PIECES COMING TOGETHER.

BGG – I was…asked what I thought about 2016 and then something along the lines of “what if we get to this first week of Oct – does that mean we’re into 2016“?   My response was – “we will really have to get to that place and see what’s been done”… I highly doubt there is any guarantee we land in 2016 without some shift in value – however, I am much more focused on these reforms and attacking corruption than anything else…the progress they make (on this corruption) will decide for me what my opinion will be.  [post 2 of 2]

BGG – [Corruption…Corruption…Corruption!!!]  “they are attacking it on every level“… attacking corruption – this is a good thing.  …recently (last day or two) I have been hearing as early as the 24th thru about the 29th and if they miss that one then just prior to the UN Gen assembly – if they miss that window, no later than the end of the first week of October.  LET ME BE CLEAR… THIS IS NOT MY OPINION (only something I have heard)…in fact, the only reason I bothered to mention it – it was based on them dealing with a bit more of this corruption and then they would move ahead… so I believe any of this? Maybe 50/50.   [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Aggiedad77 (Dinar Guru) – Article:  “Abadi first speaker summit of the United Nations against terrorism”   So the news has been saying that PM Abadi will head to the US just after their upcoming holiday…he’s first up on a list of speakers talking about terrorism issues on a global scale with the United Nations…probably a quick trip on his part and the part of their Foreign Minister as well…both seeking more military support from the US during this trip as well.

Mnt Goat (Dinar Guru) – Wanted to keep you updated on the fight against ISIS and DAASH since after all the physical security of Iraq is a large factor is whether they are going to RV sooner than later. Seems the USA strategy is working to push ISIS and DAASH back into Syria. You see they must isolate them and confine them. Once this is done it is much easier to remove them. Once across the boarders of Iraq they can then secure the boarders.

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) – Man, oh, man… are things moving slowwwwww right now.  And even as slow as things feel right now, you need…to understand that Abadi IS getting stuff done, and we are DEFINITELY on the right track.  I’ll give that two thumbs up, even though we are still waiting on the HCL. [The HCL: Any chance of that being resolved before Dec.?]  HCL – yes, I do have high hopes for pre-December!  […how confident do you feel that an RV may happen before the end of the year?]  Provided the HCL goes through, I am optimistic. On a scale of 1-10: Cake.

Frank26 (Dinar Guru) – BIG DRAMATIC CHANGE…remember our #1 concern…SECURITY…it’s now being done faster than ever imagined in Iraq…this is the opinion of I-Team.  …today there was a precision coalition air strike on Ramadi…apparently so precise was this attack that it put a great fear into al-Baghdadi, the leader of ISIS….he’s taking his thugs and running back to Syria…They are LEAVING Ramadi…watch for this in the next day or so…What is so SURPRISING is the AMAZING speed we believe things to be happening… TODAY.  This precision air strike seems to have triggered something…the Team is not sharing “what” but they are looking towards Oct 4 for something or some things to happen.  Watching between Oct 4-8 to see if the Iraqis follow through…confidence level of this is at 50% and IOO (In Our Opinion) could keep growing…and…hopefully the Iraqis will take advantage of us helping to prop up the MR(Monetary Reform).  They know we want to help…they know we are there to help…the news should get interesting inside a day or two from now…watch for it.

Abadi announce new measures

Said Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi, Wednesday, with new measures with the judges of integrity, money laundering and economic crime. Information Office of the Prime Minister said in a press statement received by the agency, “and our response,” a copy of it, …

“Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi held a meeting with the judges of integrity, money laundering and economic crime, adding to tighten measures to reduce the financial and administrative corruption and speed up the resolution of the issues and the development of new strategies to assist in the process of deterring corruption and recover money stolen by corrupt “…

Mnt Goat (Dinar Guru) – What is really happening with the Mastercards?   ...these cards WILL NOT GO INTERNATIONAL until the currency is once again back on the international global exchanges. They can not use these cards outside of Iraq until this happens. Using the cards outside of Iraq means – the IQD rates will have to be in the international exchanges  which enables the link to the conversion programs so  the new currency can be converted from the country of origin’s currency amount…this did not yet happen…

Frank26 (Dinar Guru) – I believe that Maliki will be the next thing.  If this would have happened sooner, Maliki would have been control of the monetary reform.  We knew Maliki was a snake … but we got into bed with him. The timing of all of these things are incredible.   400 Million Dollars (USD) was being sold in Iraq … that was a big boost for the USA … so we used Maliki.  …sometimes it appears that Iraq is in control – and that is true when it comes to their “laws” … but the US has the powers of the green-light. The laws are important because the investors and the stock-market can’t succeed without them.  Well over 100 GOI officials were fired and were replaced with US trained Iraqi’s. In my opinion – they fired every crook!  We are not messing around!  Nobody “invited” us back – but we’re tired of the “lip-service” … so we’re back!  Iraq needs to arrest Maliki … not the US. The day you see Maliki arrested … Then you’ll know we are extremely close.  [post 2 of 2]

tman23 (Dinar Researcher) – Article quote:  “Al-Abadi, Al-Jaafari will visit the United States, after the Eid al-Adha”, adding that Jaafari’s visit “will precede the visit Abadi, where he is scheduled to attend UN General Assembly meetings.”   Very VERY interesting… The post 2015 summit concludes 10/1 and then they will go to council and if all are in agreement…Funds will be free for release…several trillions for global infrastructure building etc.   …the timing of Abadi’s arrival is suspicious…we will never know but certainly have the right to speculate that…IRAQ is in the PLAN!!   And if that is the case (which I am 99.99999% convinced it is)… Oct 6th the release is to happen upon agreement…and that is when the US fiscal year begins with funds to be released…and Obama is calling to get the US Budget passed now…But no doubt…The world PTB have some plan that is about to be initiated.

Frank26 (Dinar Guru) – BIG DRAMATIC CHANGE…remember our #1 concern…SECURITY…it’s now being done faster than ever imagined in Iraq…this is the opinion of I-Team.  …today there was a precision coalition air strike on Ramadi…apparently so precise was this attack that it put a great fear into al-Baghdadi, the leader of ISIS….he’s taking his thugs and running back to Syria…They are LEAVING Ramadi…watch for this in the next day or so…What is so SURPRISING is the AMAZING speed we believe things to be happening… TODAY.  This precision air strike seems to have triggered something…the Team is not sharing “what” but they are looking towards Oct 4 for something or some things to happen.  Watching between Oct 4-8 to see if the Iraqis follow through…confidence level of this is at 50% and IOO (In Our Opinion) could keep growing…and…hopefully the Iraqis will take advantage of us helping to prop up the MR(Monetary Reform).  They know we want to help…they know we are there to help…the news should get interesting inside a day or two from now…watch for it.

Abadi announce new measures

Said Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi, Wednesday, with new measures with the judges of integrity, money laundering and economic crime. Information Office of the Prime Minister said in a press statement received by the agency, “and our response,” a copy of it, …

“Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi held a meeting with the judges of integrity, money laundering and economic crime, adding to tighten measures to reduce the financial and administrative corruption and speed up the resolution of the issues and the development of new strategies to assist in the process of deterring corruption and recover money stolen by corrupt “…

Mnt Goat (Dinar Guru) – What is really happening with the Mastercards?   ...these cards WILL NOT GO INTERNATIONAL until the currency is once again back on the international global exchanges. They can not use these cards outside of Iraq until this happens. Using the cards outside of Iraq means – the IQD rates will have to be in the international exchanges  which enables the link to the conversion programs so  the new currency can be converted from the country of origin’s currency amount…this did not yet happen…

Frank26 (Dinar Guru) – I believe that Maliki will be the next thing.  If this would have happened sooner, Maliki would have been control of the monetary reform.  We knew Maliki was a snake … but we got into bed with him. The timing of all of these things are incredible.   400 Million Dollars (USD) was being sold in Iraq … that was a big boost for the USA … so we used Maliki.  …sometimes it appears that Iraq is in control – and that is true when it comes to their “laws” … but the US has the powers of the green-light. The laws are important because the investors and the stock-market can’t succeed without them.  Well over 100 GOI officials were fired and were replaced with US trained Iraqi’s. In my opinion – they fired every crook!  We are not messing around!  Nobody “invited” us back – but we’re tired of the “lip-service” … so we’re back!  Iraq needs to arrest Maliki … not the US. The day you see Maliki arrested … Then you’ll know we are extremely close.  [post 2 of 2]

BGG – the Moody’s rating is good news…whatever it means (exactly) them having a ratings outlook is good…and by the by – it is only a “provisional rating” on their bonds only – however, it’s essentially the data and info they would use on a sovereign credit rating… overall, and in light of the severity of their situation, I took this report as generally realistic..: and positive… as a credit rating agency – it is vital they are reliable in their portrayal to investors… still a reasonably decent outlook – “stable with instituational risk” is probably an accurate picture…What they have “in the ground” and what they can pump, process and sell are two very different numbers… and this is their short term issue – PERIOD.  they are still spending too much based on the 2015 deficit and bad projection of oil prices. They have short term crisis – they have discussed (privately) bridging this gap with some emergency currency move…however, until this political corruption is “cornered” they are still discussing options

Mnt Goat (Dinar Guru) – We are off to a start of a fantastic week! In the many years of following this saga I have never seen such progress move so fast. Some element is definitely behind supporting Abadi and his council.    These next coming weeks should be very interesting.  I also want to say that when Iraq is ready to revalue their currency and come back as an international player it will just happen. NOTHING WILL STOP IT.

Frank26 (Dinar Guru) – they are running out of time to do this. The Marshal Plan is Bush’s baby. Dr. Shabibi is getting older and fragile … and I believe that speed is a big factor now.  Why is Dr. Shabibi important? He knows the software. He’s been protected by the USA (in my opinion) for the last 2 years. ISIS and DAASH is running. Think about it … why would we send Special Opps into the CBI? That was the first place they went. They didn’t need numbers from the CBI … they already knew them.  The so called “audit’ of the CBI was a bunch of BS…all of this was done at night so that the mission could be accomplished. We believe the Special Opps did this for Dr. Shabibi – not Allik.   Dr. Shabibi was given control of the green-light.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Delta (Dinar Intel) – The stock market will increase because of the Anti-Money Laundering Law. The currency reform will make a lot of investors come into Iraq.  The Iraqi Stock Market will be one of the hottest in the world. A lot of investor money will be coming into Iraq… it will be a holiday on Wednesday in Iraq so we are not expecting anything until after the holiday. Iraq needs liquidity. They need money. Iraq is a rich country but they have no cash on hand.  They have oil, resources … but essentially, they are bankrupt. The USA doesn’t want this to fail.  One of the stipulations for Iraq to move forward is to lift the 3 zeros.  In order for the IMF to continue to support Iraq – they must add value to their currency.  Let’s see what happens after the EID holidays.  [post 2 of 2]

Delta (Dinar Intel) – …the 50 and the 100 dinar articles are still confusing people. You will not have a country with lower inflation than Iraq. For the countries who added zeros to their notes is due to high-inflation. Right now in Iraq … inflation is very, very low. It doesn’t make any sense to produce more 3 zero notes.  Remember the articles about the coin and the 50 and the 100 dinar?  At the end of the article… they gave the example that the note would be a 50 note … and this was from a committee member.  The plan to execute it was in July – but they didn’t do it. We do believe that they are now ready.  Also remember the article about 3 weeks ago from … this guy…who is in charge of issuing notes for the CBI… stated that plan was to come out with the new note … valued at 50,000 but will be marked as a 50. This is not rumors – He said that the 50 dinar is ready and before the end of the year they will execute it. Obviously they can’t give you the exact date … but the monetary reform has to happen.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Mnt Goat (Dinar Guru) – I have told you that come mid September we would be in an excellent window for the RV.  I also stated in my news letter last week that if Iraq DID NOT complete what it had to complete on time and so the PTB will not RV. They will not RV until these needed laws are in place and at least partially implemented (as required).  I will say if they can work out the details on four key issues – National Guard law, the Investment Law, Judicial Reforms, the Amnesty law and the controlling physical security situation we will be a great time position afterwards to possibly see some upward movement in the currency value.  Iraq knows they need to do something with the currency value and they know they need to do it quickly. I believe they are now targeting RV by Oct 1st.  But it is just a target date.

Backdoc (Dinar Guru) – […in your opinion do you believe all currencies will Rv at the same time?]  …THERE WILL BE A FEW THAT WILL GO AROUND THE SAME TIME IN MY OPINION! THINK ABOUT IT FOR A MOMENT. IF YOU JUST MADE MILLIONS OR MORE ON ONE OF THESE CURRENCIES LIKE THE DINAR AND THE OTHERS HAVEN’T CHANGED YET MANY WOULD BUY MASSIVE AMOUNTS OF THEM CAUSING A DISTORTION ON NOTE COUNTS. THAT COULD DO SEVERE DAMAGE TO A COUNTRY. THIS IS THE REASON I BELIEVE WE WILL SEE SOME MINIMAL START WITH THE RIAL AT THE SAME TIME THE DINAR RETURNS!

tman23 (Dinar Researcher) – Opinion piece from 2012…”the monetary authority would still face the tough mission of determining the Iraqi dinar’s exchange rate. Will it peg the dinar to the dollar, or to a basket of currencies? Or will the authority employ [floating exchange rates] – the current system – leaving the dinar’s value to be determined by market forces…”   Iraq has operated a parallel exchange rate…one that is floating in the market…and a fixed rate of 1166 that the CBI operates on for imports.   So Kap [Guru Kaperoni] saying floating exchange rates is nothing new simply because it has been floating on the streets for years now…BUT as the author noted…the best solution is to peg it to the dollar or a basket of currencies.  The history of developing countries is to peg…many studies have proven that “investors” do not the risk of a floating currency in a developing country…and that would be Iraq in it’s infancy of opening a new economy, a new government finding it’s foothold, and a military striving for competence.

Eagle1 (Dinar Guru) – News out of Iraq…we have a report that Iraq passed the Anti-Terriorist Law and the Finance Responsibility Law…passed that, and that wiped out a whole fistful of laws Maliki had on the the books that allowed him and his cronies to steal big time from the government.  The International Investment Law was tabled until next Monday, the 21st.  Whether they take the vote or bump it out a few days, no one knows, but what makes this law significant is the law has no teeth if we don’t have an RV, or a raise in value so that it is at least on par with the U.S. dollar where it’s got some worth to it.  If they don’t make the dinar at least on par to the U.S. dollar than this Investment Law really makes no sense.  If they pass that law you can expect to see an RV.  
______________________________________________________________

tman23 (Dinar Researcher) – Abadi made a statement a few days ago that he was not going to conduct business through the media…That has pretty much been the status quo of the top powers who count.  Anything that is “market sensitive” which includes monetary reform is not going to be hashed out in public or through the media…. They may talk about laws and reforms but none of it will ever indicate outright that the currency will appreciate overnight in value.

FrostyTheSnowman (Dinar Guru) – …two questions on my mind.  #1 – When will Dr. Shabibi be exonerated … including his trusted colleagues so they can return to work with honor?  #2 – Where will the 12’s final chess piece land? (In Iraq’s favor … or Iran’s?)  IMO — lock-up M [Maliki] … and you lock-up Iran. Perhaps then will Dr. S be free to RV.

BGG – Your thoughts and beliefs on this post: “The HCL has nothing to do with what we need to look at. It’s not going to push anything forward or anything like that. The HCL has to do with the country federalizing and what they are going to do with oil.”  I agree…plus they have a “patch work” of oil laws that would work fine.

Mnt Goat (Dinar Guru) – Many…intel “gurus” are now telling you there are two windows of opportunity that the PTB are aiming at for the currency reform mid September and the end of September.  I also believe these two alternative timeframes have been set for an RV.   Mid September is here and Iraq has not yet completed all the promises from the mid June conference. They have decided to extend the effort for another 2 weeks to the end of September. So do not expect any RV at least until this timeframe.  So they will now move to a new target end of September ending as their next date. Iraq is very close to accomplishing the needed tasks…  They have less than 2 weeks to pass a couple needed laws but these are the most controversial ones.  But the good news they are acting now and now is finally the time.  [post 2 of 2]

Mnt Goat (Dinar Guru) – …many say that Iraq is a sovereign country since they are now out of UN Chapter 7 sanctions (since June 2013) however technically this is entirely NOT TRUE until they get their currency reinstated…they need political and economic stability along with physical security in order to get their currency reinstated  When they hit mid year of 2015 it was apparent that a new strategy and a plan had to be made to “aggressively” push this reform process along…  So in this June 2015 time period the PTB called another Paris Conference. Part of the dialogue was to come up this new plan…  They asked how they could “pick the low hanging fruit” (prioritize the reforms that would given them the most benefit and can be accomplished in the shortest period of time). They recently referred to these items as the  “hasty” reforms.  The plan also included sequencing the implementation of the laws so the reforms could work.  We know the process now – distribute the lower denominations, launch the 50k notes in circulation, continue the project to delete the zeros to coincide with a significant increase in the value of their currency.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Corruption, corruption, corruption…

This is the watch word for today… and going forward. Iraq is rooting out corruption and fraud at every turn. This will not be an overnight success – but it may not be required to be a fully complete process prior to some kind of currency reform / value shift.

The world powers spoke out – Iraq responded. This is good for Dinar investors. We should remember that’s what this is – an investment. The big problem is timing… it’s not coming fast enough for most people. I’m with you there. However, none of us control the timing. It’s not a “guaranteed winning lottery ticket” – it’s an investment…

Breitling (Dinar Researcher) – The HCL has nothing to do with what we need to look at.  It’s not going to push anything forward or anything like that.  The HCL has to do with the country federalizing and what they are going to do with oil.

tman23 (Dinar Researcher) – Regarding Investment Law…Investment law is composed of three legal sources: international law (especially investment treaties), investment contracts between investors and states, and domestic law. At the international level, the main legal instruments relating to investment are investment treaties. These primarily aim at protecting the foreign investor in the host state.  The reason for the Iraq Bonds not yet being released for international sales yet… The Investment Law! BUT…Gurus will say it is because they need a (RV) rate… WHICH IS NOT SO!
______________________________________________________________

Kaperoni (Dinar Research) – Article quote:  “So fund managers say that Iraq will not find buyers for its bonds only if you pay very high returns.”  I think they mean investors feel that these bonds are to risky unless they make it worth their while..which is a high rate of return.  We will find out soon as a group from Iraq is on their way to the US to try and push these bonds…   Quote:  “Iraq and systems to promote meetings for investors in London on Thursday and Friday is due to this activity moves to New York, Boston and Los Angeles this week.”

tman23 (Dinar Researcher) – Again……the mystery is the Investment Law ……which has been ready for quite sometime but keeps getting bumped…….there is some sense of timing for this particular law.  Bond sales…..Contracts…..and other foreign investments have been held off………..  Recall……Iraq (just) paid off 9 billion plus owed to oil conpany contracts……the new contracts are on hold…….. The new loans set up through reforms have not been opened yet…….. There is a sense that the opening of loans, contracts, and new economy is being delayed until the investment law is passed…..The question is……what comes first…..the removal of the 3 zeros or the investment law……. Then the other fact that I was told…….No money moves until after the closure of private meetings of the post isdd 2015 summit…….where if agreed……world wide infastructure building will be ramped up from double digit billions to several the several trillions…

If the CBI starts retiring more notes once it RV’s at a dime or above, then kept on a market float up, which notes would they eliminate first from 25k downward? From the 100 IQD upwards? How long of a window would we have to trade them in for other safer denoms?]   I believe they will start with the 25k and go down, and we should have a window of AT LEAST 3 months, and probably a max of 2 years.

tman23 (Dinar Researcher) – Well I see the investment law vote was postponed…AGAIN…A mystery indeed. But it certainly leads to the theory that the 3 zeros may be required to be gone before the proceed… And I say this because this investment law is tied DIRECTLY to the iisd summit that has started and will end 10/1…with special meetings for agreements closing 10/5.
______________________________________________________________

Breitling (Dinar Researcher) – The “two year process” has nothing to do with it’s not going to revalue at the beginning.  The two year process has to do with reducing the note count, adding value to the currency and adding a new currency to the economy in ABOUT a two year time frame…I say “about” because it’s not an exact science and they don’t have an exact say over it…you can’t just push a button.  Is IT around the corner?

Chalabi: Detection of “dollar auction gangs” in the Central Bank

Dinar billsBetween the head of the parliamentary finance committee, Ahmad Chalabi, on Thursday, the central bank sold to banks own “312” billion dollars under the pretext of import, revealing that the government needs to “115” billion dollars only.

He revealed Chalabi, said the Finance Committee revealed the dollar auction gangs in the bank Central, and reached extensive information, but there is no response from the central bank or from the government according to the source.

Chalabi said “551” billion dollars entered Iraq from 2006 to 2014 “and that” imports of the Iraqi state in full, of food, clothing, fuel and weapons , only “115” billion dollars “do not need, and Acharvi interview told” news “that the central bank sold to banks for import under the pretext of” 312 “billion dollars, equivalent to 270% of the imports of the state.”

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) – Man, oh, man… are things moving slowwwwww right now….And even as slow as things feel right now…understand that Abadi IS getting stuff done, and we are DEFINITELY on the right track.  I’ll give that two thumbs up, even though we are still waiting on the HCL.

Mnt Goat (Dinar Guru) – Article:  “PARLIAMENTARY DEFENSE AND SECURITY MEMBER CONFIRMS THE EXISTENCE OF US PRESSURES TO PASS THE LAW NATIONAL GUARD”   The National Guard…is an URGENT and VERY IMPORTANT law to get passed and implemented.  I fully expect them to reconcile any differences in this law in the coming days and we will see this law passed soon.

BGG – Article quote:  “House of Representatives vote on the anti-money laundering and the financing of terrorism law…and the committees concerned to finalize the law…”   Which all means it’s probably done now… so the Oct 1st – hard deadline from the WB/IMF is met…what that fully means for Iraq? We wait and see… something – for sure… However, they have put off the Investment Law…(I kind of doubt this delay holds though)… and… it’s not REQUIRED – but it would look better for Abadi…

Mnt Goat (Dinar Guru) – …parliament was to supposed to vote on the draft anti-money laundering and terrorism financing law today…This is another one much needed for the reforms…we also see a vote on…the Investment law on the …today.  Hurray! …these reforms are tied to reinstating their currency meaning RV time!
______________________________________________________________

Kaperoni (Dinar Researcher) – Article:  “Cabinet Approves Cancel posts of Vice-President of the Republic and referred to parliament”   Though this sounds good, the key here is the CoM was probably told what PM Abadi’s  plan to cancel the vice presidencies was unconstitutional.  And so the CoM just wrote a bill to disolve them…and now it says it has been submitted to parliament for a vote.   In other words, parliament will decide if they are cancelled or not.
______________________________________________________________

BGG – [So all the laws are going to be passed all at once? is that correct?]   …the AML Law and Investment Law are on the agenda.  Anti-Money Laundering Law…This is the one the WB and IMF want…likely pointed directly at Maliki and his corrupt gang.  […the iraqi parliament agenda for tomorrow [Wednesday]…says “The vote on the draft anti-money laundering and terrorism financing law.” and “The vote on the draft second amendment to the Law of Investment”.]   …sounds like a vote to me.  That is good news.   [When everything is voted thru, then when is it Implemented…When should they Revalue or RV?] value can happen anytime… these are just things that OBVIOUSLY open the door wide for monetary reform…but there is nothing that says they can’t do whatever they want when the “obstructionists” are well “on the ropes”.  [All the laws are NOT needed for international acceptance.]  you are correct.

tlm724 (Dinar Guru) – Article:  “Selling foreign bonds to fill budget deficit”   I don’t think they will have much trouble selling these bonds after tomorrows vote on the AML and investment law, those laws will provide a certain level of confidence.

The Exchange Rate of Foreign Currency in Economic Feasibility Studies 

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.

Estimate the shadow price of foreign currency:…

3.      Estimate the amended exchange rate of the Iraqi dinar to be used in technical and economical feasibility studies and for (1.134) dollar per dinar. This price should be approved for 3 years until re-appreciation by the competent authorities.

11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.

Heavenly Father, Thank You that You have a future and hope for us! Thank You that You think thoughts of peace towards us! In Jesus Name, Amen.

Mnt Goat (Dinar Guru) – What is really happening with the Mastercards?   ...these cards WILL NOT GO INTERNATIONAL until the currency is once again back on the international global exchanges. They can not use these cards outside of Iraq until this happens. Using the cards outside of Iraq means – the IQD rates will have to be in the international exchanges  which enables the link to the conversion programs so  the new currency can be converted from the country of origin’s currency amount…this did not yet happen…

Frank26 (Dinar Guru) – I believe that Maliki will be the next thing.  If this would have happened sooner, Maliki would have been control of the monetary reform.  We knew Maliki was a snake … but we got into bed with him. The timing of all of these things are incredible.   400 Million Dollars (USD) was being sold in Iraq … that was a big boost for the USA … so we used Maliki.  …sometimes it appears that Iraq is in control – and that is true when it comes to their “laws” … but the US has the powers of the green-light. The laws are important because the investors and the stock-market can’t succeed without them.  Well over 100 GOI officials were fired and were replaced with US trained Iraqi’s. In my opinion – they fired every crook!  We are not messing around!  Nobody “invited” us back – but we’re tired of the “lip-service” … so we’re back!  Iraq needs to arrest Maliki … not the US. The day you see Maliki arrested … Then you’ll know we are extremely close.  [post 2 of 2]

BGG – the Moody’s rating is good news…whatever it means (exactly) them having a ratings outlook is good…and by the by – it is only a “provisional rating” on their bonds only – however, it’s essentially the data and info they would use on a sovereign credit rating… overall, and in light of the severity of their situation, I took this report as generally realistic..: and positive… as a credit rating agency – it is vital they are reliable in their portrayal to investors… still a reasonably decent outlook – “stable with instituational risk” is probably an accurate picture…What they have “in the ground” and what they can pump, process and sell are two very different numbers… and this is their short term issue – PERIOD.  they are still spending too much based on the 2015 deficit and bad projection of oil prices. They have short term crisis – they have discussed (privately) bridging this gap with some emergency currency move…however, until this political corruption is “cornered” they are still discussing options
______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat (Dinar Guru) – We are off to a start of a fantastic week! In the many years of following this saga I have never seen such progress move so fast. Some element is definitely behind supporting Abadi and his council.    These next coming weeks should be very interesting.  I also want to say that when Iraq is ready to revalue their currency and come back as an international player it will just happen. NOTHING WILL STOP IT.

Frank26 (Dinar Guru) – they are running out of time to do this. The Marshal Plan is Bush’s baby. Dr. Shabibi is getting older and fragile … and I believe that speed is a big factor now.  Why is Dr. Shabibi important? He knows the software. He’s been protected by the USA (in my opinion) for the last 2 years. ISIS and DAASH is running. Think about it … why would we send Special Opps into the CBI? That was the first place they went. They didn’t need numbers from the CBI … they already knew them.  The so called “audit’ of the CBI was a bunch of BS…all of this was done at night so that the mission could be accomplished. We believe the Special Opps did this for Dr. Shabibi – not Allik.   Dr. Shabibi was given control of the green-light.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Delta (Dinar Guru) – The stock market will increase because of the Anti-Money Laundering Law. The currency reform will make a lot of investors come into Iraq.  The Iraqi Stock Market will be one of the hottest in the world. A lot of investor money will be coming into Iraq… it will be a holiday on Wednesday in Iraq so we are not expecting anything until after the holiday. Iraq needs liquidity. They need money. Iraq is a rich country but they have no cash on hand.  They have oil, resources … but essentially, they are bankrupt. The USA doesn’t want this to fail.  One of the stipulations for Iraq to move forward is to lift the 3 zeros.  In order for the IMF to continue to support Iraq – they must add value to their currency.  Let’s see what happens after the EID holidays.  [post 2 of 2]

Delta (Dinar Guru) – …the 50 and the 100 dinar articles are still confusing people. You will not have a country with lower inflation than Iraq. For the countries who added zeros to their notes is due to high-inflation. Right now in Iraq … inflation is very, very low. It doesn’t make any sense to produce more 3 zero notes.  Remember the articles about the coin and the 50 and the 100 dinar?  At the end of the article… they gave the example that the note would be a 50 note … and this was from a committee member.  The plan to execute it was in July – but they didn’t do it. We do believe that they are now ready.  Also remember the article about 3 weeks ago from … this guy…who is in charge of issuing notes for the CBI… stated that plan was to come out with the new note … valued at 50,000 but will be marked as a 50. This is not rumors – He said that the 50 dinar is ready and before the end of the year they will execute it. Obviously they can’t give you the exact date … but the monetary reform has to happen.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Mnt Goat (Dinar Guru) – I have told you that come mid September we would be in an excellent window for the RV.  I also stated in my news letter last week that if Iraq DID NOT complete what it had to complete on time and so the PTB will not RV. They will not RV until these needed laws are in place and at least partially implemented (as required).  I will say if they can work out the details on four key issues – National Guard law, the Investment Law, Judicial Reforms, the Amnesty law and the controlling physical security situation we will be a great time position afterwards to possibly see some upward movement in the currency value.  Iraq knows they need to do something with the currency value and they know they need to do it quickly. I believe they are now targeting RV by Oct 1st.  But it is just a target date.

Backdoc (Dinar Guru) – […in your opinion do you believe all currencies will Rv at the same time?]  …THERE WILL BE A FEW THAT WILL GO AROUND THE SAME TIME IN MY OPINION! THINK ABOUT IT FOR A MOMENT. IF YOU JUST MADE MILLIONS OR MORE ON ONE OF THESE CURRENCIES LIKE THE DINAR AND THE OTHERS HAVEN’T CHANGED YET MANY WOULD BUY MASSIVE AMOUNTS OF THEM CAUSING A DISTORTION ON NOTE COUNTS. THAT COULD DO SEVERE DAMAGE TO A COUNTRY. THIS IS THE REASON I BELIEVE WE WILL SEE SOME MINIMAL START WITH THE RIAL AT THE SAME TIME THE DINAR RETURNS!

PERSONALLY, I HAVE NEVER BEEN MORE ENCOURAGED ABOUT THE DINAR, AS WELL AS SEVERAL OTHER CURRENCIES I HOLD! THIS COMING WEEK SHOULD REALLY RAMP THINGS UP IN A NUMBER OF WAYS.  IRAQ APPEARS TO BE CONCLUDING THE LONG AWAITED LAWS IN PREPARATION OF A RATE CHANGE!

Or will the authority employ [floating exchange rates] – the current system – leaving the dinar’s value to be determined by market forces…”   Iraq has operated a parallel exchange rate…one that is floating in the market…and a fixed rate of 1166 that the CBI operates on for imports.   So Kap [Guru Kaperoni] saying floating exchange rates is nothing new simply because it has been floating on the streets for years now…BUT as the author noted…the best solution is to peg it to the dollar or a basket of currencies.  The history of developing countries is to peg…many studies have proven that “investors” do not the risk of a floating currency in a developing country…and that would be Iraq in it’s infancy of opening a new economy, a new government finding it’s foothold, and a military striving for competence.

Movements in the backstage of the National Alliance for change

Abadi economic reforms soonBaghdad/ Informed sources revealed the movements behind the scene of the National Alliance for change. Haidar Al-Abbadi, Iraqi Government after the reforms announced by the crisis raised with its partners.

Sources told Asharq Al-Awsat published in London on Monday over a “hindrance” to replace the Prime Minister, that “both the Islamic Supreme Council headed by Ammar al-Hakim and Sadr movement led by Muqtada al-Sadr say that if so it won’t come anymore one of Dawa party (led by former Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki) Prime Minister.”

Poppy3 (Dinar Intel) – The other part of this plan was introduced to the world as Basel Accord, by George W. Bush in 2006 when he first introduced the idea of changes to world wide banking policy. This was a very good idea in my opinion. THIS WAS JUST AFTER GWB WAS CONVINCED BY ALLEN GREENSPAN AND DICK CHENEY CONVINCED HIM THE REVAL OF THE DINAR AND PRE-NEGOTIATED RATE FOR THE US TO BUY OIL FROM THEM WILL ALLOW THE AMERICAN TAX PAYER NEVER HAVE TO PAY FOR THE WAR IN IRAQ AND CONVINCED HIM TO SIGN INTO LAW 13303 SO THE PUBLIC AND CORPORATION IN AMERICA COULD BUY DINAR. ( HE TOLD THE PUBLIC THIS SEVERAL TIMES).   [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Eagle1 (Dinar Guru) – News out of Iraq…we have a report that Iraq passed the Anti-Terriorist Law and the Finance Responsibility Law…passed that, and that wiped out a whole fistful of laws Maliki had on the the books that allowed him and his cronies to steal big time from the government.  The International Investment Law was tabled until next Monday, the 21st.  Whether they take the vote or bump it out a few days, no one knows, but what makes this law significant is the law has no teeth if we don’t have an RV, or a raise in value so that it is at least on par with the U.S. dollar where it’s got some worth to it.  If they don’t make the dinar at least on par to the U.S. dollar than this Investment Law really makes no sense.  If they pass that law you can expect to see an RV.

The Exchange Rate of Foreign Currency in Economic Feasibility Studies 

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.

Estimate the shadow price of foreign currency:…

3.      Estimate the amended exchange rate of the Iraqi dinar to be used in technical and economical feasibility studies and for (1.134) dollar per dinar. This price should be approved for 3 years until re-appreciation by the competent authorities.

tman23 – The elections and then appointments of positions in Iraq GOI was a mere game of musical chairs…same players, different appointed position…AND they did not begin to move into reforms until the poor population began demonstrating and was preparing to “burn the house down'” per se’… The reforms so far have been 99% cosmetic. They claim that after EID they will pass the laws that will enforce/re-enforce the reforms.  The only one I care about is the investment law…once this is passed and new foreign contracts along with investment come into play…this influx of money and the accounting with/without 3 zeros will be the determining factor of which way the IQD moves.
______________________________________________________________

Backdoc (Dinar Guru) – […in your opinion do you believe all currencies will Rv at the same time?]  …THERE WILL BE A FEW THAT WILL GO AROUND THE SAME TIME IN MY OPINION! THINK ABOUT IT FOR A MOMENT. IF YOU JUST MADE MILLIONS OR MORE ON ONE OF THESE CURRENCIES LIKE THE DINAR AND THE OTHERS HAVEN’T CHANGED YET MANY WOULD BUY MASSIVE AMOUNTS OF THEM CAUSING A DISTORTION ON NOTE COUNTS. THAT COULD DO SEVERE DAMAGE TO A COUNTRY. THIS IS THE REASON I BELIEVE WE WILL SEE SOME MINIMAL START WITH THE RIAL AT THE SAME TIME THE DINAR RETURNS!

Backdoc (Dinar Guru) – SOME IN DINARLAND HAVE EXPRESSED CONCERN THAT IRAQ WILL…DEVALUE ITS CURRENCY.

PERSONALLY, I HAVE NEVER BEEN MORE ENCOURAGED ABOUT THE DINAR, AS WELL AS SEVERAL OTHER CURRENCIES I HOLD! THIS COMING WEEK SHOULD REALLY RAMP THINGS UP IN A NUMBER OF WAYS.  IRAQ APPEARS TO BE CONCLUDING THE LONG AWAITED LAWS IN PREPARATION OF A RATE CHANGE!

Aggiedad77 (Dinar Guru) – Earlier this week you saw they passed the Anti-Money Laundering Law…no whoopla though…then a few articles later…an announcement that the Investment Law was postponed until after the upcoming holiday.  …the reforms that Abadi has proposed and is proposing take time to implement…it took Maliki 8 plus years to drag Iraq into the cesspool where they live today…can you honestly expect to see significant change in a couple of months…  PM Abadi has his hands full battling ISIS in many areas and attempting to deal with corruption in a HUGE way in other areas…throw Maliki and his thugs into this mix along with the Iranians…he is working…but carefully… he makes calculated moves… he works in a wise manner. We are there now to help, to show him and his government how to get things done in a faster and more efficient fashion…but at the same time we stand in the shadows to allow the Iraqis all the credit.

Mnt Goat (Dinar Guru) – …many say that Iraq is a sovereign country since they are now out of UN Chapter 7 sanctions (since June 2013) however technically this is entirely NOT TRUE until they get their currency reinstated…they need political and economic stability along with physical security in order to get their currency reinstated  When they hit mid year of 2015 it was apparent that a new strategy and a plan had to be made to “aggressively” push this reform process along…  So in this June 2015 time period the PTB called another Paris Conference. Part of the dialogue was to come up this new plan…  They asked how they could “pick the low hanging fruit” (prioritize the reforms that would given them the most benefit and can be accomplished in the shortest period of time). They recently referred to these items as the  “hasty” reforms.  The plan also included sequencing the implementation of the laws so the reforms could work.  We know the process now – distribute the lower denominations, launch the 50k notes in circulation, continue the project to delete the zeros to coincide with a significant increase in the value of their currency.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Corruption, corruption, corruption…

This is the watch word for today… and going forward. Iraq is rooting out corruption and fraud at every turn. This will not be an overnight success – but it may not be required to be a fully complete process prior to some kind of currency reform / value shift.

The world powers spoke out – Iraq responded. This is good for Dinar investors. We should remember that’s what this is – an investment. The big problem is timing… it’s not coming fast enough for most people. I’m with you there. However, none of us control the timing. It’s not a “guaranteed winning lottery ticket” – it’s an investment…

Breitling (Dinar Guru) – The HCL has nothing to do with what we need to look at.  It’s not going to push anything forward or anything like that.  The HCL has to do with the country federalizing and what they are going to do with oil.
______________________________________________________________

tman23 (Dinar Researcher) – Regarding Investment Law…Investment law is composed of three legal sources: international law (especially investment treaties), investment contracts between investors and states, and domestic law. At the international level, the main legal instruments relating to investment are investment treaties. These primarily aim at protecting the foreign investor in the host state.  The reason for the Iraq Bonds not yet being released for international sales yet… The Investment Law! BUT…Gurus will say it is because they need a (RV) rate… WHICH IS NOT SO!
______________________________________________________________

Kaperoni (Dinar Researcher) – Article quote:  “So fund managers say that Iraq will not find buyers for its bonds only if you pay very high returns.”  I think they mean investors feel that these bonds are to risky unless they make it worth their while..which is a high rate of return.  We will find out soon as a group from Iraq is on their way to the US to try and push these bonds…   Quote:  “Iraq and systems to promote meetings for investors in London on Thursday and Friday is due to this activity moves to New York, Boston and Los Angeles this week.”

Deputy for the National: disclosure of the names of a lot of mischief in the next phase

tman23 (Dinar Researcher) – Again……the mystery is the Investment Law ……which has been ready for quite sometime but keeps getting bumped…….there is some sense of timing for this particular law.  Bond sales…..Contracts…..and other foreign investments have been held off………..  Recall……Iraq (just) paid off 9 billion plus owed to oil conpany contracts……the new contracts are on hold…….. The new loans set up through reforms have not been opened yet…….. There is a sense that the opening of loans, contracts, and new economy is being delayed until the investment law is passed…..The question is……what comes first…..the removal of the 3 zeros or the investment law……. Then the other fact that I was told…….No money moves until after the closure of private meetings of the post isdd 2015 summit…….where if agreed……world wide infastructure building will be ramped up from double digit billions to several the several trillions…

If the CBI starts retiring more notes once it RV’s at a dime or above, then kept on a market float up, which notes would they eliminate first from 25k downward? From the 100 IQD upwards? How long of a window would we have to trade them in for other safer denoms?]   I believe they will start with the 25k and go down, and we should have a window of AT LEAST 3 months, and probably a max of 2 years.

tman23 (Dinar Researcher) – Well I see the investment law vote was postponed…AGAIN…A mystery indeed. But it certainly leads to the theory that the 3 zeros may be required to be gone before the proceed… And I say this because this investment law is tied DIRECTLY to the iisd summit that has started and will end 10/1…with special meetings for agreements closing 10/5.
______________________________________________________________

Breitling (Dinar Guru) – The “two year process” has nothing to do with it’s not going to revalue at the beginning.  The two year process has to do with reducing the note count, adding value to the currency and adding a new currency to the economy in ABOUT a two year time frame…I say “about” because it’s not an exact science and they don’t have an exact say over it…you can’t just push a button.  Is IT around the corner?

Chalabi: Detection of “dollar auction gangs” in the Central Bank

Between the head of the parliamentary finance committee, Ahmad Chalabi, on Thursday, the central bank sold to banks own “312” billion dollars under the pretext of import, revealing that the government needs to “115” billion dollars only.

He revealed Chalabi, said the Finance Committee revealed the dollar auction gangs in the bank Central, and reached extensive information, but there is no response from the central bank or from the government according to the source.

Chalabi said “551” billion dollars entered Iraq from 2006 to 2014 “and that” imports of the Iraqi state in full, of food, clothing, fuel and weapons , only “115” billion dollars “do not need, and Acharvi interview told” news “that the central bank sold to banks for import under the pretext of” 312 “billion dollars, equivalent to 270% of the imports of the state.”

Adam Montana (Dinar Guru) – Man, oh, man… are things moving slowwwwww right now….And even as slow as things feel right now…understand that Abadi IS getting stuff done, and we are DEFINITELY on the right track.  I’ll give that two thumbs up, even though we are still waiting on the HCL.

Mnt Goat (Dinar Guru) – Article:  “PARLIAMENTARY DEFENSE AND SECURITY MEMBER CONFIRMS THE EXISTENCE OF US PRESSURES TO PASS THE LAW NATIONAL GUARD”   The National Guard…is an URGENT and VERY IMPORTANT law to get passed and implemented.  I fully expect them to reconcile any differences in this law in the coming days and we will see this law passed soon.

BGG – Article quote:  “House of Representatives vote on the anti-money laundering and the financing of terrorism law…and the committees concerned to finalize the law…”   Which all means it’s probably done now… so the Oct 1st – hard deadline from the WB/IMF is met…what that fully means for Iraq? We wait and see… something – for sure… However, they have put off the Investment Law…(I kind of doubt this delay holds though)… and… it’s not REQUIRED – but it would look better for Abadi…

BGG – …He said the Information Office of Ebadi said in a statement, said the cabinet approved the draft Cancel the posts of Vice President of the Republic Act…”   Cabinet approves bill to cancel the posts of Vice-President of the Republic Act.  MALIKI IS GONE (soon)…not only is the CoM wanting to push forward the removal of these crooks (as a law) – but they are also withdrawing ALL the previous junk not voted on yet.  IT’S HUGE NEWS!!
______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat (Dinar Guru) – …parliament was to supposed to vote on the draft anti-money laundering and terrorism financing law today…This is another one much needed for the reforms…we also see a vote on…the Investment law on the …today.  Hurray! …these reforms are tied to reinstating their currency meaning RV time!
______________________________________________________________

Kaperoni (Dinar Researcher) – Article:  “Cabinet Approves Cancel posts of Vice-President of the Republic and referred to parliament”   Though this sounds good, the key here is the CoM was probably told what PM Abadi’s  plan to cancel the vice presidencies was unconstitutional.  And so the CoM just wrote a bill to disolve them…and now it says it has been submitted to parliament for a vote.   In other words, parliament will decide if they are cancelled or not.
______________________________________________________________

BGG – [So all the laws are going to be passed all at once? is that correct?]   …the AML Law and Investment Law are on the agenda.  Anti-Money Laundering Law…This is the one the WB and IMF want…likely pointed directly at Maliki and his corrupt gang.  […the iraqi parliament agenda for tomorrow [Wednesday]…says “The vote on the draft anti-money laundering and terrorism financing law.” and “The vote on the draft second amendment to the Law of Investment”.]   …sounds like a vote to me.  That is good news.   [When everything is voted thru, then when is it Implemented…When should they Revalue or RV?] value can happen anytime… these are just things that OBVIOUSLY open the door wide for monetary reform…but there is nothing that says they can’t do whatever they want when the “obstructionists” are well “on the ropes”.  [All the laws are NOT needed for international acceptance.]  you are correct.
______________________________________________________________

tlm724 (Dinar Guru) – Article:  “Selling foreign bonds to fill budget deficit”   I don’t think they will have much trouble selling these bonds after tomorrows vote on the AML and investment law, those laws will provide a certain level of confidence.

The Exchange Rate of Foreign Currency in Economic Feasibility Studies 

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.

Estimate the shadow price of foreign currency:…

Poppy3 – The other part of this plan was introduced to the world as Basel Accord, by George W. Bush in 2006 when he first introduced the idea of changes to world wide banking policy. This was a very good idea in my opinion. THIS WAS JUST AFTER GWB WAS CONVINCED BY ALLEN GREENSPAN AND DICK CHENEY CONVINCED HIM THE REVAL OF THE DINAR AND PRE-NEGOTIATED RATE FOR THE US TO BUY OIL FROM THEM WILL ALLOW THE AMERICAN TAX PAYER NEVER HAVE TO PAY FOR THE WAR IN IRAQ AND CONVINCED HIM TO SIGN INTO LAW 13303 SO THE PUBLIC AND CORPORATION IN AMERICA COULD BUY DINAR. ( HE TOLD THE PUBLIC THIS SEVERAL TIMES).   [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Eagle1 – News out of Iraq…we have a report that Iraq passed the Anti-Terriorist Law and the Finance Responsibility Law…passed that, and that wiped out a whole fistful of laws Maliki had on the the books that allowed him and his cronies to steal big time from the government.  The International Investment Law was tabled until next Monday, the 21st.  Whether they take the vote or bump it out a few days, no one knows, but what makes this law significant is the law has no teeth if we don’t have an RV, or a raise in value so that it is at least on par with the U.S. dollar where it’s got some worth to it.  If they don’t make the dinar at least on par to the U.S. dollar than this Investment Law really makes no sense.  If they pass that law you can expect to see an RV.

tman23 – Abadi made a statement a few days ago that he was not going to conduct business through the media…That has pretty much been the status quo of the top powers who count.  Anything that is “market sensitive” which includes monetary reform is not going to be hashed out in public or through the media…. They may talk about laws and reforms but none of it will ever indicate outright that the currency will appreciate overnight in value.

FrostyTheSnowman – …two questions on my mind.  #1 – When will Dr. Shabibi be exonerated … including his trusted colleagues so they can return to work with honor?  #2 – Where will the 12’s final chess piece land? (In Iraq’s favor … or Iran’s?)  IMO — lock-up M [Maliki] … and you lock-up Iran. Perhaps then will Dr. S be free to RV.

BGG – Your thoughts and beliefs on this post: “The HCL has nothing to do with what we need to look at. It’s not going to push anything forward or anything like that. The HCL has to do with the country federalizing and what they are going to do with oil.”  I agree…plus they have a “patch work” of oil laws that would work fine.

Breitling – Wall Street Journal Article “Stalled oil project weighs in on Iraq“…is this going to be a curse on the dinar being revalued?  No it is not…it’s completely the exact opposite.  That’s their play.  That’s their back door.  That’s they’re way out.  What does Iraq have that nobody else has?  The Iranian Rial is at market rate.  The Saudi currency is at market rate.  Guess what’s not at market rate?  It’s the Iraqi Dinar.  It’s a huge play.  Huge plus for us.  Huge plus for Iraq.  They can make up for this stuff [glut of world oil/lower oil revenue].  They can double their wealth just by…adding value to their currency that should be there in the first place.  Ok, that’s a great strategy, how do we know they are going to do that?  It’s what we are always looking at…they are taking currency off the market.  They are setting it up in order to do that.  It’s good news for us.  It puts Iraq’s back up against the wall to get them to use their number one option…their currency…their number one defense.  And you and I are sitting on millions of it.  That’s what we’re hoping for and that’s what we’re looking at.

Mnt Goat – Many…intel “gurus” are now telling you there are two windows of opportunity that the PTB are aiming at for the currency reform mid September and the end of September.  I also believe these two alternative timeframes have been set for an RV.   Mid September is here and Iraq has not yet completed all the promises from the mid June conference. They have decided to extend the effort for another 2 weeks to the end of September. So do not expect any RV at least until this timeframe.  So they will now move to a new target end of September ending as their next date. Iraq is very close to accomplishing the needed tasks…  They have less than 2 weeks to pass a couple needed laws but these are the most controversial ones.  But the good news they are acting now and now is finally the time.  [post 2 of 2]

The world powers spoke out – Iraq responded. This is good for Dinar investors. We should remember that’s what this is – an investment. The big problem is timing… it’s not coming fast enough for most people. I’m with you there. However, none of us control the timing. It’s not a “guaranteed winning lottery ticket” – it’s an investment…

Chalabi: Detection of “dollar auction gangs” in the Central Bank

Between the head of the parliamentary finance committee, Ahmad Chalabi, on Thursday, the central bank sold to banks own “312” billion dollars under the pretext of import, revealing that the government needs to “115” billion dollars only.

He revealed Chalabi, said the Finance Committee revealed the dollar auction gangs in the bank Central, and reached extensive information, but there is no response from the central bank or from the government according to the source.

Chalabi said “551” billion dollars entered Iraq from 2006 to 2014 “and that” imports of the Iraqi state in full, of food, clothing, fuel and weapons , only “115” billion dollars “do not need, and Acharvi interview told” news “that the central bank sold to banks for import under the pretext of” 312 “billion dollars, equivalent to 270% of the imports of the state.”

Adam Montana – Man, oh, man… are things moving slowwwwww right now….And even as slow as things feel right now…understand that Abadi IS getting stuff done, and we are DEFINITELY on the right track.  I’ll give that two thumbs up, even though we are still waiting on the HCL.
______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat – Article:  “PARLIAMENTARY DEFENSE AND SECURITY MEMBER CONFIRMS THE EXISTENCE OF US PRESSURES TO PASS THE LAW NATIONAL GUARD”   The National Guard…is an URGENT and VERY IMPORTANT law to get passed and implemented.  I fully expect them to reconcile any differences in this law in the coming days and we will see this law passed soon.

We wait and see… something – for sure… However, they have put off the Investment Law…(I kind of doubt this delay holds though)… and… it’s not REQUIRED – but it would look better for Abadi…

Kaperoni – Article: “House of Representatives vote on the anti-money laundering and the financing of terrorism law” Quote: “The Presidency has decided to postpone the vote on the draft second amendment to the Law of Investment Law No. 13 of 2006 and submitted by the committees economy, investment and financial study to be ripening and vote the event of a resumption of meetings after Eid al-Adha.  The Council voted on a draft anti-money laundering law and the financing of terrorism…And then it decided to adjourn the meeting until Tuesday 29/9/2015”   …removing the Investment Law to a later time does not surprise me.
______________________________________________________________

BGG – …He said the Information Office of Ebadi said in a statement, said the cabinet approved the draft Cancel the posts of Vice President of the Republic Act…”   Cabinet approves bill to cancel the posts of Vice-President of the Republic Act.  MALIKI IS GONE (soon)…not only is the CoM wanting to push forward the removal of these crooks (as a law) – but they are also withdrawing ALL the previous junk not voted on yet.  IT’S HUGE NEWS!!
______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat – …parliament was to supposed to vote on the draft anti-money laundering and terrorism financing law today…This is another one much needed for the reforms…we also see a vote on…the Investment law on the …today.  Hurray! …these reforms are tied to reinstating their currency meaning RV time!
______________________________________________________________

Kaperoni – Article:  “Cabinet Approves Cancel posts of Vice-President of the Republic and referred to parliament”   Though this sounds good, the key here is the CoM was probably told what PM Abadi’s  plan to cancel the vice presidencies was unconstitutional.  And so the CoM just wrote a bill to disolve them…and now it says it has been submitted to parliament for a vote.   In other words, parliament will decide if they are cancelled or not.
______________________________________________________________

BGG – [So all the laws are going to be passed all at once? is that correct?]   …the AML Law and Investment Law are on the agenda.  Anti-Money Laundering Law…This is the one the WB and IMF want…likely pointed directly at Maliki and his corrupt gang.  […the iraqi parliament agenda for tomorrow [Wednesday]…says “The vote on the draft anti-money laundering and terrorism financing law.” and “The vote on the draft second amendment to the Law of Investment”.]   …sounds like a vote to me.  That is good news.   [When everything is voted thru, then when is it Implemented…When should they Revalue or RV?] value can happen anytime… these are just things that OBVIOUSLY open the door wide for monetary reform…but there is nothing that says they can’t do whatever they want when the “obstructionists” are well “on the ropes”.  [All the laws are NOT needed for international acceptance.]  you are correct.

tlm724 – Article:  “Selling foreign bonds to fill budget deficit”   I don’t think they will have much trouble selling these bonds after tomorrows vote on the AML and investment law, those laws will provide a certain level of confidence.

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.

Estimate the shadow price of foreign currency:…

Word for the day…

1 John 5:14-15 (NIV)

14 This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us. 15 And if we know that he hears us—whatever we ask—we know that we have what we asked of him.

Heavenly Father, Thank You that we can approach You through Jesus! Thank You for answered prayer! We rejoice and thank You for the good report from Subby that her pet scan came back 100 % clear!! We give You all the Glory, Honor, and Praise, in Jesus Name, Amen.

Mnt Goat – Many…intel “gurus” are now telling you there are two windows of opportunity that the PTB are aiming at for the currency reform mid September and the end of September.  I also believe these two alternative timeframes have been set for an RV.   Mid September is here and Iraq has not yet completed all the promises from the mid June conference. They have decided to extend the effort for another 2 weeks to the end of September. So do not expect any RV at least until this timeframe.  So they will now move to a new target end of September ending as their next date. Iraq is very close to accomplishing the needed tasks…  They have less than 2 weeks to pass a couple needed laws but these are the most controversial ones.  But the good news they are acting now and now is finally the time.  [post 2 of 2]

Aggiedad77 – Earlier this week you saw they passed the Anti-Money Laundering Law…no whoopla though…then a few articles later…an announcement that the Investment Law was postponed until after the upcoming holiday.  …the reforms that Abadi has proposed and is proposing take time to implement…it took Maliki 8 plus years to drag Iraq into the cesspool where they live today…can you honestly expect to see significant change in a couple of months…  PM Abadi has his hands full battling ISIS in many areas and attempting to deal with corruption in a HUGE way in other areas…throw Maliki and his thugs into this mix along with the Iranians…he is working…but carefully… he makes calculated moves… he works in a wise manner. We are there now to help, to show him and his government how to get things done in a faster and more efficient fashion…but at the same time we stand in the shadows to allow the Iraqis all the credit.

Mnt Goat – …many say that Iraq is a sovereign country since they are now out of UN Chapter 7 sanctions (since June 2013) however technically this is entirely NOT TRUE until they get their currency reinstated…they need political and economic stability along with physical security in order to get their currency reinstated  When they hit mid year of 2015 it was apparent that a new strategy and a plan had to be made to “aggressively” push this reform process along…  So in this June 2015 time period the PTB called another Paris Conference. Part of the dialogue was to come up this new plan…  They asked how they could “pick the low hanging fruit” (prioritize the reforms that would given them the most benefit and can be accomplished in the shortest period of time). They recently referred to these items as the  “hasty” reforms.  The plan also included sequencing the implementation of the laws so the reforms could work.  We know the process now – distribute the lower denominations, launch the 50k notes in circulation, continue the project to delete the zeros to coincide with a significant increase in the value of their currency.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Millionday – Article quote:  “The House of Representatives postponed a vote on its second day of the draft amendment to the Law of Investment Law…The House of Representatives has held its day of the vote and the reading of a number of draft laws regarding been postponed hosted by Chairman Minister Haider al-Abadi until after the Eid holiday.”   THE AMENDMENT VOTE FOR INVESTMENT IS REPORTABLY POSTPONED AND THE HOSTING OF ABADI.   Sep 24 Thursday  [to] Sep 27 Sunday Eid-al-Adha holiday National holiday.   [do they work on these holidays?]  IN WHAT I HAVE SEEN OVER THE MANY YEARS — YES THEY DO.  IT IS A NATIONAL HOLIDAY SO THE WORKER IS IMPACTED.

Chalabi: Detection of “dollar auction gangs” in the Central Bank

Between the head of the parliamentary finance committee, Ahmad Chalabi, on Thursday, the central bank sold to banks own “312” billion dollars under the pretext of import, revealing that the government needs to “115” billion dollars only.

He revealed Chalabi, said the Finance Committee revealed the dollar auction gangs in the bank Central, and reached extensive information, but there is no response from the central bank or from the government according to the source.

Chalabi said “551” billion dollars entered Iraq from 2006 to 2014 “and that” imports of the Iraqi state in full, of food, clothing, fuel and weapons , only “115” billion dollars “do not need, and Acharvi interview told” news “that the central bank sold to banks for import under the pretext of” 312 “billion dollars, equivalent to 270% of the imports of the state.”

Adam Montana – Man, oh, man… are things moving slowwwwww right now….And even as slow as things feel right now…understand that Abadi IS getting stuff done, and we are DEFINITELY on the right track.  I’ll give that two thumbs up, even though we are still waiting on the HCL.
______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat – Article:  “PARLIAMENTARY DEFENSE AND SECURITY MEMBER CONFIRMS THE EXISTENCE OF US PRESSURES TO PASS THE LAW NATIONAL GUARD”   The National Guard…is an URGENT and VERY IMPORTANT law to get passed and implemented.  I fully expect them to reconcile any differences in this law in the coming days and we will see this law passed soon.
______________________________________________________________

BGG – Article quote:  “House of Representatives vote on the anti-money laundering and the financing of terrorism law…and the committees concerned to finalize the law…”   Which all means it’s probably done now… so the Oct 1st – hard deadline from the WB/IMF is met…what that fully means for Iraq? We wait and see… something – for sure… However, they have put off the Investment Law…(I kind of doubt this delay holds though)… and… it’s not REQUIRED – but it would look better for Abadi…

Kaperoni – Article quote:  “Finance Committee in the House of Representatives propose to the central bank and the government to adopt “restrictive flotation” in the auction currency...”    I do believe, once they stabilize the country and get the economy going, the CBI will float the dinar. How and when that starts is yet to be determined.  The good news is these kinds of articles seem to be more frequent.

Kaperoni – Article: “House of Representatives vote on the anti-money laundering and the financing of terrorism law” Quote: “The Presidency has decided to postpone the vote on the draft second amendment to the Law of Investment Law No. 13 of 2006 and submitted by the committees economy, investment and financial study to be ripening and vote the event of a resumption of meetings after Eid al-Adha.  The Council voted on a draft anti-money laundering law and the financing of terrorism…And then it decided to adjourn the meeting until Tuesday 29/9/2015”   …removing the Investment Law to a later time does not surprise me.
______________________________________________________________

BGG – …He said the Information Office of Ebadi said in a statement, said the cabinet approved the draft Cancel the posts of Vice President of the Republic Act…”   Cabinet approves bill to cancel the posts of Vice-President of the Republic Act.  MALIKI IS GONE (soon)…not only is the CoM wanting to push forward the removal of these crooks (as a law) – but they are also withdrawing ALL the previous junk not voted on yet.  IT’S HUGE NEWS!!
______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat – …parliament was to supposed to vote on the draft anti-money laundering and terrorism financing law today…This is another one much needed for the reforms…we also see a vote on…the Investment law on the …today.  Hurray! …these reforms are tied to reinstating their currency meaning RV time!
______________________________________________________________

Kaperoni – Article:  “Cabinet Approves Cancel posts of Vice-President of the Republic and referred to parliament”   Though this sounds good, the key here is the CoM was probably told what PM Abadi’s  plan to cancel the vice presidencies was unconstitutional.  And so the CoM just wrote a bill to disolve them…and now it says it has been submitted to parliament for a vote.   In other words, parliament will decide if they are cancelled or not.
______________________________________________________________

BGG – [So all the laws are going to be passed all at once? is that correct?]   …the AML Law and Investment Law are on the agenda.  Anti-Money Laundering Law…This is the one the WB and IMF want…likely pointed directly at Maliki and his corrupt gang.  […the iraqi parliament agenda for tomorrow [Wednesday]…says “The vote on the draft anti-money laundering and terrorism financing law.” and “The vote on the draft second amendment to the Law of Investment”.]   …sounds like a vote to me.  That is good news.   [When everything is voted thru, then when is it Implemented…When should they Revalue or RV?] value can happen anytime… these are just things that OBVIOUSLY open the door wide for monetary reform…but there is nothing that says they can’t do whatever they want when the “obstructionists” are well “on the ropes”.  [All the laws are NOT needed for international acceptance.]  you are correct.
______________________________________________________________

tlm724 – Article:  “Selling foreign bonds to fill budget deficit”   I don’t think they will have much trouble selling these bonds after tomorrows vote on the AML and investment law, those laws will provide a certain level of confidence.

Aggiedad77 – …Parliament tomorrow…voting on not one but two important laws…Investment Law AND the Anti-Money Laundering Law...stellar on their part if they pull it off…then the cherry on top of this ice cream soda is the presence of PM Abadi in Parliament.  A reschedule of his cancelled visit from last Thursday that was postponed as he put one foot inside the Parliament then had to leave for “emergency reasons”…Will he be handing out pink slips to Parliament members who have over stayed their welcome by not showing up for the dance each week…or is he going to roll those corrupt heads out of Parliament.  Or maybe just tell them we are transitioning to a democratic process and as a result your services will no longer be needed in their current capacity but if you are an honest bloke we might have room for you in our new Congress…who knows…maybe he just wants to visit.
______________________________________________________________

Tlar – …the CBI admitted in an article that they had planned to implement but postponed deleting the zeros four times in the last four years.  Maliki had put up so many obstacles and roadblocks culminating in an  arrest warrant on Shabibi.  Ultimately while PM Maliki did arrest a lot of the top guys running the CBI including Saleh, Shabibi’s right hand man.  Abadi exonerated Saleh and made him his personal economic adviser.  So Abadi is doing all the right things but because Maliki is trying to thwart his every move and kill the reforms, the going is slow.  Abadi will get the reforms done and will clean  the government of all the corrupt officials as long as he is not killed.  We will eventually see our RV that should have happened as far back as 2010.  Iraq has no choice if they are to ever open their economy which they desperately need to do.  If Abadi can get the requirements of the IMF and the WB done by October there is still a possibility we could see it then but that’s a tall order.  I think it will more than likely be January.   [post 3 of 3]
______________________________________________________________

Tlar – He is also trying to get rid of the head of the Judiciary, Maliki’s guy and has intentions to replace the head of the CBI.  He wants all qualified technocrats running all positions in government and has stated publicly that he will give the jobs to the most qualified people paying no attention to secular quotas.  The reforms are meant to get rid of corruption in Government and to punish corrupt officials that have been stealing the society blind for the last 8 years under Maliki.  The reforms are also intended to recoup the stolen funds and right the wrongs under Maliki.  This includes most of the politicians over there.  The people in Iraq are solidly behind him and are demonstrating in the streets supporting his reforms.  My only fear is as they start to prosecute the bad guys, they will try to assassinate Abadi, but Abadi has stated publicly that he will see the reforms through even if it costs him his life which to me smells of his getting death threats.  Prosecutions and arrests are already being made.  Over 300 people including politicians are no longer allowed to leave the country.  Arrest warrants are being issued to round up the corrupt.  On a good note…   [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

Stryker – Today Abadi’s Cabinet Approves Maliki’s Exit and the withdrawal of Maliki’s Governments Laws! Vice-President Maliki is History.
______________________________________________________________

Tlar – I am afraid that the dinar will not happen this year.  October has a chance but I am thinking January 2016 is most likely more realistic.  Abadi, the prime minister is in the process of cleaning house of all the corrupt politicians that Maliki had put in place.  Maliki himself will most likely be on trial soon as they are preparing charges against him.  But this is Iraq and anything can happen. The IMF and WB both have put conditions on Iraq that they must clean house and get rid of corruption and pass the money laundering law by October 1st.  Its an uphill battle but all the religious guys including Hakin, Sadr and al-Sistani are behind Abaidi and his reforms.  Parliament voted unanimously to support a list of things in support of Abadi and his reforms going so far as giving him the power to eliminate the parliament itself and start over.  Abadi has relieved the three presidencies abolishing them altogether.  Allawi, Maliki and Najaifi are all supposedly out of a job and are no longer considered a part of the government.  All three have refused to go away so that will be another fight for Abadi.  [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]

BGG ~ I don’t agree – so posting this isn’t meant to imply some kind of endorsement of this point of view…

______________________________________________________________

BGG – [do you think the WB will really blacklist Iraq if they do not get everything done by the 1st…or is that just a loud threat?]   I think they would – but I also think Iraq will get the AML Law passed (or close) before then…and I suspect as long as the vote is taken – (or some other serious effort) they will be fine…obviously, it’s not just the Law they want – they want it enforced. NO MONEY LAUNDERING…so the point is – it’s not just the Law – it’s Maliki they want (and everyone else it seems)…
______________________________________________________________

______________________________________________________________

BGG – …bonds or no bonds – they need monetary reform ASAP AND they have to deal with the corruption – PERIOD.   I think (IMHO) once Maliki is fully marginalized – an “emergency currency move” (up – not down…) become a very real possibility. Abadi needs the money to keep after ISIS.
______________________________________________________________

Bluedog – SO THE U.S. STORMS THE CBI… CBI IS IN FULL OPERATION?  DO NOT THINK SO TO THE OPEN EYE…THEY TRAINED PEOPLE TO FILL THOSE POSITIONS…MOVING THINGS AROUND A BIT AND GAINING CORRUPT MOVEMENTS…IM SURE THERE WERE SOME BAD EGGS THAT GOT ARRESTED OR DETAINED…  MEANWHILE MEETINGS PLANNED IN EUROPE AND THE USA WITH ZEBARI AND SALEH DID NOT BEAR FRUIT...  THE GOI IS IN THE SHUFFLE MODE…OVER ONE HUNDRED OFFICIALS FIRED LIKE TRUMP WOULD DO AND NEW ONES MOST TRAINED IN THE USA FOR SUCH A TIME AS THIS.  HANG IN THERE…THEY ARE JUST ABOUT TO TAKE A BOW FROM THE CENTER STAGE OF THIS PERFORMANCE BUT YOU GOT TIME TO HIT THE LOBBY FOR POPCORN…THE INTERNET IS DOWN…NOW IS YOUR CHANCE GET A LARGE SODA TOO…BEFORE THE CURTAIN OPENS BACK UP…IMO.
______________________________________________________________

Aggiedad77 – …it would seem the COM (Council of Ministers) was overly busy today… they approved the cancellation of the VP and Vice PM positions…But to me just as important, maybe more so…they approved the withdrawal of all laws directed to Parliament by the previous government (Maliki) basically making those efforts null and void…after that…they approved a mechanism for payment for stalled projects or projects that were lagging due to lack of funds…interesting to say the least this last effort…Coming at at time when liquidity was an issue…but remember all the funds that have been flowing back into Iraq…back into the banks from the thievery and corrupt efforts that have been nailed by the Integrity Commission…

Cabinet approves bill to cancel the posts of Vice-President of the Republic Act

He said the Information Office of Ebadi said in a statement, said the cabinet approved the draft Cancel the posts of Vice President of the Republic Act and submitted it to the House of Representatives based on the provisions of Articles 61 / item I, 80 / item II of the Constitution. The Council decided also that the Ministry of Agriculture adoption of support by 80 percent of the total cost of the seeds of wheat and barley crops. and approved by the Council of Ministers the withdrawal of laws sent projects to the parliament by the previous government for the purpose of review…

Article brought in from Holly1 from the Chat Room (posted by Mrs BGG this AM)

______________________________________________________________

Millionday – Article quote:  “And witnessed the Investment Law No. (31) for the year 2006 to make some amendments to paragraphs and materials, which is likely to approve the next two days…”  THIS IS THE ANNOUNCEMENT OF PLANS TO HAVE THE INVESTMENT LAW ACTIVE.  THE ANNOUNCEMENT IS FOR THIS TO BE DONE TODAY [MONDAY] OR TOMORROW.   THEY ARE EXPECTING THE NEW LAW TO ATTRACT INVESTMENT BUT ARE RELIANT ON THE CONDITIONS TO CHANGE…IT IS APPARENT THAT THE LAWS ARE EXPECTED TO BE COMPETITIVE WITH OTHER INTERNATIONAL INVESTMENT LAWS — THIS SHOWS THE GOAL IS TO GO GLOBAL AND THE LAW IS TO BE DONE WITHIN DAYS.
______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat – They also told us it would be paid out on the new “National” card and not their current Q –Card of SMART card.  We know they plan to combine the two cards into one card…I have to tell you there were still hundreds of thousands of citizens who did not receive there cards… They are preparing to pay out on HCL oil revenues. Yes – once again this is their intention. They MUST distribute part of this oil revenue to the people as in the HCL law. The HCL is not complete without these ongoing rolling payments to the citizens.  This must be done prior to any RV.   This is why these cards are so important. This means they are getting serious about it once again. When they begin using these new National cards they want the ability to make these payments to be an international usage.   [post 2 of 2]

firefly – …found this VERY interesting. It is from CNN dated today:  “Iraq plans bond offering for brave investors”   So all those people telling us the bonds went on sale and are a failure…well…THE BONDS HAVE NOT GONE LIVE YET!

Mnt Goat – …the recent blocking of the internet in Iraq has nothing…to do with the preparation for the RV.  By blocking the internet Abadi has also blocked a strategic means of ISIS and DAASH communications.  Another rumor to I must also discount today is about the reports that conquerable by military forces by American or Iraqi, that stormed the CBI and confiscated documents going back to 2003.  The next piece of juicy news is about the National Unified cards. We all know, as it has been confirmed, the Iraqi citizens currently have a Q- card (or SMART card)…It is NOT yet fully international until the currency is turned on in the international exchanges. In April of this year the told us they wanted to begin payout to the citizens of the oil revenues. [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

Kaperoni – Article quotes:  “We don’t see an immediate devaluation but we see more pressure on the peg the longer the situation continues as buffers get eroded.”  “Concerns that oil-dependent economies may abandon their pegs intensified after Kazakhstan allowed its currency to float…”  They won’t devalue.  They just need to stay pegged long enough for the economic reforms/loans to take hold and then they can begin the float. 
______________________________________________________________

BGG – …it appears the CBI sales are retreating and the Dinar is remaining stable (if not starting to strengthen)… this means less corruption – more confidence.  I am plenty excited to see what Abadi’s reforms bring and how quickly it all comes together – because, quite honestly – that IS THE WHOLE BALL – GAME right now.

Parliamentary Finance: strong and modern Iraqi dinar opposite just rumors

Zora / Duraid Salman: Parliamentary Finance Committee has ruled out the possibility for the collapse of the Iraqi national currency against the backdrop of the financial crisis that beset the country, and described the news you are talking about as “rumors” promoted by some currency traders in order to achieve an illegal advantage, as he emphasized that oil imports enough yet to pay salaries Mozvin.oukal Committee member Masood Haider Rustam told the “Zora”, yesterday: news that talk about for the collapse of the Iraqi national currency due to the financial crisis, are just “concerns incorrect and untrue,” attributing the cause to that of the Iraqi dinar strong enough to withstand .

Rustam said: that the amount of the Iraqi dinar circulating in the market currently estimated at about 40 trillion dinars, and Iraq has a financial reserve of hard currency is estimated at 60 billion dollars, that is as much as 150% of the Iraqi currency…

______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat – There is nothing in the grey side or mysterious about why they are stalling the change over of the currency…they had postponed the currency reforms due to three reasons:  1) money laundering and bad banking practice.  2) wide spread corruption.  3) security reasons.  Nothing grey or mysterious about it…So Iraq must first make the necessary changes. The reforms and the laws needed to back them up and implement them are needed first. It’s not all about the RV.  The RV is simply a by-product of the process of bringing the country of Iraq online with the international community and do it such a way as to created stability and progress in their country and in the region.
______________________________________________________________

Bluedog – SECURITY HAS BEEN SET FORTH IN IRAQ ALONG WITH THE IMF…THEY JUST WANT THE CBI TO BE SECURE AND TRUST WORTHY AS IT HAS BEEN A DEN OF THIEVES SINCE SHABIBI LEFT.   WHERE IS THAT NATIONAL GUARD LAW HMMMMM WAITING FOR FUNDING AS I TOLD YOU…WHEN YOU SEE THAT PASSED THEN YOUR GOLDEN…ALL IMO.  OH…THE CBI…GIVE THAT SOME ROOM TO BE CORRECTED THEN YOU WILL SEE A CHANGE IN PLANS.   [post 2 of 2]
______________________________________________________________

tman23 – Word was 9/8 there was a change coming to the CBI… 9/8 was to be a big day for Parliament and Ministers… what happened on 9/8…A deputy minister of the judical was kidnapped…his body guards were released which is strange… So Abadi cancels meetings and holds special meeting late night… Then Abadi goes to appear in front of Parliament Thursday for a speech…gets to the doors and turns around as an emergency situation came up…Then the CBI news of troop takeover… BUT…similar events had happened in the past only different scenarios…meaning when they get close to changing something, somebody starts a fire in the hallway.

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.

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]

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…

With both Sistani & Sadr addressing Turkish hostage issue, seems fair to assume captors are indeed Shia. But also highly marginal ones.

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 – 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.

Thanks to Dinar Recaps for posting Round Table w/BGG

BGG: I have some commentary “in review” of yesterday…

BGG: Maybe I should have been a little more “tender” with my words. I used the word “RV” apparently currencies don’t do that (otherwise I’m an idiot – according to some commenters). I say… SEMANTICS

BGG: I care very little what terminology gets used. I care about getting things started OFF!!

BGG: Whatever the number – or the term – or what the “title page” looks like – J I’m just looking for THE JUMPING OFF POINT.

BGG: because once it gets going (again) their market will take care of the rest.

The Exchange Rate of Foreign Currency in Economic Feasibility Studies 

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.

Corruption, corruption, corruption…

This is the watch word for today… and going forward. Iraq is rooting out corruption and fraud at every turn. This will not be an overnight success – but it may not be required to be a fully complete process prior to some kind of currency reform / value shift.

The world powers spoke out – Iraq responded. This is good for Dinar investors. We should remember that’s what this is – an investment. The big problem is timing… it’s not coming fast enough for most people. I’m with you there. However, none of us control the timing. It’s not a “guaranteed winning lottery ticket” – it’s an investment…

Mnt Goat – Many…intel “gurus” are now telling you there are two windows of opportunity that the PTB are aiming at for the currency reform mid September and the end of September.  I also believe these two alternative timeframes have been set for an RV.   Mid September is here and Iraq has not yet completed all the promises from the mid June conference. They have decided to extend the effort for another 2 weeks to the end of September. So do not expect any RV at least until this timeframe.  So they will now move to a new target end of September ending as their next date. Iraq is very close to accomplishing the needed tasks…  They have less than 2 weeks to pass a couple needed laws but these are the most controversial ones.  But the good news they are acting now and now is finally the time.  [post 2 of 2]

Aggiedad77 – Earlier this week you saw they passed the Anti-Money Laundering Law…no whoopla though…then a few articles later…an announcement that the Investment Law was postponed until after the upcoming holiday.  …the reforms that Abadi has proposed and is proposing take time to implement…it took Maliki 8 plus years to drag Iraq into the cesspool where they live today…can you honestly expect to see significant change in a couple of months…  PM Abadi has his hands full battling ISIS in many areas and attempting to deal with corruption in a HUGE way in other areas…throw Maliki and his thugs into this mix along with the Iranians…he is working…but carefully… he makes calculated moves… he works in a wise manner. We are there now to help, to show him and his government how to get things done in a faster and more efficient fashion…but at the same time we stand in the shadows to allow the Iraqis all the credit.
______________________________________________________________


______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat – …many say that Iraq is a sovereign country since they are now out of UN Chapter 7 sanctions (since June 2013) however technically this is entirely NOT TRUE until they get their currency reinstated…they need political and economic stability along with physical security in order to get their currency reinstated  When they hit mid year of 2015 it was apparent that a new strategy and a plan had to be made to “aggressively” push this reform process along…  So in this June 2015 time period the PTB called another Paris Conference. Part of the dialogue was to come up this new plan…  They asked how they could “pick the low hanging fruit” (prioritize the reforms that would given them the most benefit and can be accomplished in the shortest period of time). They recently referred to these items as the  “hasty” reforms.  The plan also included sequencing the implementation of the laws so the reforms could work.  We know the process now – distribute the lower denominations, launch the 50k notes in circulation, continue the project to delete the zeros to coincide with a significant increase in the value of their currency.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

Breitling – The HCL has nothing to do with what we need to look at.  It’s not going to push anything forward or anything like that.  The HCL has to do with the country federalizing and what they are going to do with oil.
______________________________________________________________

tman23 – Regarding Investment Law…Investment law is composed of three legal sources: international law (especially investment treaties), investment contracts between investors and states, and domestic law. At the international level, the main legal instruments relating to investment are investment treaties. These primarily aim at protecting the foreign investor in the host state.  The reason for the Iraq Bonds not yet being released for international sales yet… The Investment Law! BUT…Gurus will say it is because they need a (RV) rate… WHICH IS NOT SO!
______________________________________________________________

Kaperoni – Article quote:  “So fund managers say that Iraq will not find buyers for its bonds only if you pay very high returns.”  I think they mean investors feel that these bonds are to risky unless they make it worth their while..which is a high rate of return.  We will find out soon as a group from Iraq is on their way to the US to try and push these bonds…   Quote:  “Iraq and systems to promote meetings for investors in London on Thursday and Friday is due to this activity moves to New York, Boston and Los Angeles this week.”

tman23 – Again……the mystery is the Investment Law ……which has been ready for quite sometime but keeps getting bumped…….there is some sense of timing for this particular law.  Bond sales…..Contracts…..and other foreign investments have been held off………..  Recall……Iraq (just) paid off 9 billion plus owed to oil conpany contracts……the new contracts are on hold…….. The new loans set up through reforms have not been opened yet…….. There is a sense that the opening of loans, contracts, and new economy is being delayed until the investment law is passed…..The question is……what comes first…..the removal of the 3 zeros or the investment law……. Then the other fact that I was told…….No money moves until after the closure of private meetings of the post isdd 2015 summit…….where if agreed……world wide infastructure building will be ramped up from double digit billions to several the several trillions…

Adam Montana – […a lot of us, a ton of us have the 25k note. If the CBI starts retiring more notes once it RV’s at a dime or above, then kept on a market float up, which notes would they eliminate first from 25k downward? From the 100 IQD upwards? How long of a window would we have to trade them in for other safer denoms?]   I believe they will start with the 25k and go down, and we should have a window of AT LEAST 3 months, and probably a max of 2 years.

Adam Montana – [The HCL: Any chance of that being resolved before Dec.?]  HCL – yes, I do have high hopes for pre-December!  [how confident do you feel that an RV may happen before the end of the year?]  Provided the HCL goes through, I am optimistic. On a scale of 1-10: Cake.

Breitling – … it should have been here…we don’t know.  What’s going on…what’s the problem?  There is no problem, it’s a process.  Who knows what it is they’re looking at.  We don’t know.  That’s a HUGE advantage for Iraq…it’s a huge plus.  The way they are managing the rebuild of their country, they are doing it right…they have no control over the political and religious influence one way or the other but they definitely  have control over the value of their currency so they can add more value to it and that is exactly what they are doing.  [Post 2 of 2]

tman23 – Well I see the investment law vote was postponed…AGAIN…A mystery indeed. But it certainly leads to the theory that the 3 zeros may be required to be gone before the proceed… And I say this because this investment law is tied DIRECTLY to the iisd summit that has started and will end 10/1…with special meetings for agreements closing 10/5.

Breitling – The “two year process” has nothing to do with it’s not going to revalue at the beginning.  The two year process has to do with reducing the note count, adding value to the currency and adding a new currency to the economy in ABOUT a two year time frame…I say “about” because it’s not an exact science and they don’t have an exact say over it…you can’t just push a button.  Is IT around the corner?

Chalabi: Detection of “dollar auction gangs” in the Central Bank

Between the head of the parliamentary finance committee, Ahmad Chalabi, on Thursday, the central bank sold to banks own “312” billion dollars under the pretext of import, revealing that the government needs to “115” billion dollars only.

He revealed Chalabi, said the Finance Committee revealed the dollar auction gangs in the bank Central, and reached extensive information, but there is no response from the central bank or from the government according to the source.

Chalabi said “551” billion dollars entered Iraq from 2006 to 2014 “and that” imports of the Iraqi state in full, of food, clothing, fuel and weapons , only “115” billion dollars “do not need, and Acharvi interview told” news “that the central bank sold to banks for import under the pretext of” 312 “billion dollars, equivalent to 270% of the imports of the state.”

______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat – Article:  “PARLIAMENTARY DEFENSE AND SECURITY MEMBER CONFIRMS THE EXISTENCE OF US PRESSURES TO PASS THE LAW NATIONAL GUARD”   The National Guard…is an URGENT and VERY IMPORTANT law to get passed and implemented.  I fully expect them to reconcile any differences in this law in the coming days and we will see this law passed soon.
______________________________________________________________

BGG – Article quote:  “House of Representatives vote on the anti-money laundering and the financing of terrorism law…and the committees concerned to finalize the law…”   Which all means it’s probably done now… so the Oct 1st – hard deadline from the WB/IMF is met…what that fully means for Iraq? We wait and see… something – for sure… However, they have put off the Investment Law…(I kind of doubt this delay holds though)… and… it’s not REQUIRED – but it would look better for Abadi…

BGG – …He said the Information Office of Ebadi said in a statement, said the cabinet approved the draft Cancel the posts of Vice President of the Republic Act…”   Cabinet approves bill to cancel the posts of Vice-President of the Republic Act.  MALIKI IS GONE (soon)…not only is the CoM wanting to push forward the removal of these crooks (as a law) – but they are also withdrawing ALL the previous junk not voted on yet.  IT’S HUGE NEWS!!
______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat – …parliament was to supposed to vote on the draft anti-money laundering and terrorism financing law today…This is another one much needed for the reforms…we also see a vote on…the Investment law on the …today.  Hurray! …these reforms are tied to reinstating their currency meaning RV time!
______________________________________________________________

Kaperoni – Article:  “Cabinet Approves Cancel posts of Vice-President of the Republic and referred to parliament”   Though this sounds good, the key here is the CoM was probably told what PM Abadi’s  plan to cancel the vice presidencies was unconstitutional.  And so the CoM just wrote a bill to disolve them…and now it says it has been submitted to parliament for a vote.   In other words, parliament will decide if they are cancelled or not.
______________________________________________________________

BGG – [So all the laws are going to be passed all at once? is that correct?]   …the AML Law and Investment Law are on the agenda.  Anti-Money Laundering Law…This is the one the WB and IMF want…likely pointed directly at Maliki and his corrupt gang.  […the iraqi parliament agenda for tomorrow [Wednesday]…says “The vote on the draft anti-money laundering and terrorism financing law.” and “The vote on the draft second amendment to the Law of Investment”.]   …sounds like a vote to me.  That is good news.   [When everything is voted thru, then when is it Implemented…When should they Revalue or RV?] value can happen anytime… these are just things that OBVIOUSLY open the door wide for monetary reform…but there is nothing that says they can’t do whatever they want when the “obstructionists” are well “on the ropes”.  [All the laws are NOT needed for international acceptance.]  you are correct.
______________________________________________________________

tlm724 – Article:  “Selling foreign bonds to fill budget deficit”   I don’t think they will have much trouble selling these bonds after tomorrows vote on the AML and investment law, those laws will provide a certain level of confidence.

Aggiedad77 – …Parliament tomorrow…voting on not one but two important laws…Investment Law AND the Anti-Money Laundering Law...stellar on their part if they pull it off…then the cherry on top of this ice cream soda is the presence of PM Abadi in Parliament.  A reschedule of his cancelled visit from last Thursday that was postponed as he put one foot inside the Parliament then had to leave for “emergency reasons”…Will he be handing out pink slips to Parliament members who have over stayed their welcome by not showing up for the dance each week…or is he going to roll those corrupt heads out of Parliament.  Or maybe just tell them we are transitioning to a democratic process and as a result your services will no longer be needed in their current capacity but if you are an honest bloke we might have room for you in our new Congress…who knows…maybe he just wants to visit.
______________________________________________________________

Tlar – …the CBI admitted in an article that they had planned to implement but postponed deleting the zeros four times in the last four years.  Maliki had put up so many obstacles and roadblocks culminating in an  arrest warrant on Shabibi.  Ultimately while PM Maliki did arrest a lot of the top guys running the CBI including Saleh, Shabibi’s right hand man.  Abadi exonerated Saleh and made him his personal economic adviser.  So Abadi is doing all the right things but because Maliki is trying to thwart his every move and kill the reforms, the going is slow.  Abadi will get the reforms done and will clean  the government of all the corrupt officials as long as he is not killed.  We will eventually see our RV that should have happened as far back as 2010.  Iraq has no choice if they are to ever open their economy which they desperately need to do.  If Abadi can get the requirements of the IMF and the WB done by October there is still a possibility we could see it then but that’s a tall order.  I think it will more than likely be January.   [post 3 of 3]
______________________________________________________________

Tlar – He is also trying to get rid of the head of the Judiciary, Maliki’s guy and has intentions to replace the head of the CBI.  He wants all qualified technocrats running all positions in government and has stated publicly that he will give the jobs to the most qualified people paying no attention to secular quotas.  The reforms are meant to get rid of corruption in Government and to punish corrupt officials that have been stealing the society blind for the last 8 years under Maliki.  The reforms are also intended to recoup the stolen funds and right the wrongs under Maliki.  This includes most of the politicians over there.  The people in Iraq are solidly behind him and are demonstrating in the streets supporting his reforms.  My only fear is as they start to prosecute the bad guys, they will try to assassinate Abadi, but Abadi has stated publicly that he will see the reforms through even if it costs him his life which to me smells of his getting death threats.  Prosecutions and arrests are already being made.  Over 300 people including politicians are no longer allowed to leave the country.  Arrest warrants are being issued to round up the corrupt.  On a good note…   [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

Stryker – Today Abadi’s Cabinet Approves Maliki’s Exit and the withdrawal of Maliki’s Governments Laws! Vice-President Maliki is History.
______________________________________________________________

Tlar – I am afraid that the dinar will not happen this year.  October has a chance but I am thinking January 2016 is most likely more realistic.  Abadi, the prime minister is in the process of cleaning house of all the corrupt politicians that Maliki had put in place.  Maliki himself will most likely be on trial soon as they are preparing charges against him.  But this is Iraq and anything can happen. The IMF and WB both have put conditions on Iraq that they must clean house and get rid of corruption and pass the money laundering law by October 1st.  Its an uphill battle but all the religious guys including Hakin, Sadr and al-Sistani are behind Abaidi and his reforms.  Parliament voted unanimously to support a list of things in support of Abadi and his reforms going so far as giving him the power to eliminate the parliament itself and start over.  Abadi has relieved the three presidencies abolishing them altogether.  Allawi, Maliki and Najaifi are all supposedly out of a job and are no longer considered a part of the government.  All three have refused to go away so that will be another fight for Abadi.  [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]

BGG ~ I don’t agree – so posting this isn’t meant to imply some kind of endorsement of this point of view…

______________________________________________________________

BGG – [do you think the WB will really blacklist Iraq if they do not get everything done by the 1st…or is that just a loud threat?]   I think they would – but I also think Iraq will get the AML Law passed (or close) before then…and I suspect as long as the vote is taken – (or some other serious effort) they will be fine…obviously, it’s not just the Law they want – they want it enforced. NO MONEY LAUNDERING…so the point is – it’s not just the Law – it’s Maliki they want (and everyone else it seems)…
______________________________________________________________

______________________________________________________________

BGG – …bonds or no bonds – they need monetary reform ASAP AND they have to deal with the corruption – PERIOD.   I think (IMHO) once Maliki is fully marginalized – an “emergency currency move” (up – not down…) become a very real possibility. Abadi needs the money to keep after ISIS.
______________________________________________________________

Bluedog – SO THE U.S. STORMS THE CBI… CBI IS IN FULL OPERATION?  DO NOT THINK SO TO THE OPEN EYE…THEY TRAINED PEOPLE TO FILL THOSE POSITIONS…MOVING THINGS AROUND A BIT AND GAINING CORRUPT MOVEMENTS…IM SURE THERE WERE SOME BAD EGGS THAT GOT ARRESTED OR DETAINED…  MEANWHILE MEETINGS PLANNED IN EUROPE AND THE USA WITH ZEBARI AND SALEH DID NOT BEAR FRUIT...  THE GOI IS IN THE SHUFFLE MODE…OVER ONE HUNDRED OFFICIALS FIRED LIKE TRUMP WOULD DO AND NEW ONES MOST TRAINED IN THE USA FOR SUCH A TIME AS THIS.  HANG IN THERE…THEY ARE JUST ABOUT TO TAKE A BOW FROM THE CENTER STAGE OF THIS PERFORMANCE BUT YOU GOT TIME TO HIT THE LOBBY FOR POPCORN…THE INTERNET IS DOWN…NOW IS YOUR CHANCE GET A LARGE SODA TOO…BEFORE THE CURTAIN OPENS BACK UP…IMO.
______________________________________________________________

Aggiedad77 – …it would seem the COM (Council of Ministers) was overly busy today… they approved the cancellation of the VP and Vice PM positions…But to me just as important, maybe more so…they approved the withdrawal of all laws directed to Parliament by the previous government (Maliki) basically making those efforts null and void…after that…they approved a mechanism for payment for stalled projects or projects that were lagging due to lack of funds…interesting to say the least this last effort…Coming at at time when liquidity was an issue…but remember all the funds that have been flowing back into Iraq…back into the banks from the thievery and corrupt efforts that have been nailed by the Integrity Commission…

Cabinet approves bill to cancel the posts of Vice-President of the Republic Act

Khandan – Iraq’s Council of Ministers held on Tuesday, its regular-sixth session under the chairmanship of Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi, discussed in the beginning of the meeting developments in the military and security situation, and a number of issues on its agenda. He said the Information Office of Ebadi said in a statement, said the cabinet approved the draft Cancel the posts of Vice President of the Republic Act and submitted it to the House of Representatives based on the provisions of Articles 61 / item I, 80 / item II of the Constitution.

Millionday – Article quote:  “And witnessed the Investment Law No. (31) for the year 2006 to make some amendments to paragraphs and materials, which is likely to approve the next two days…”  THIS IS THE ANNOUNCEMENT OF PLANS TO HAVE THE INVESTMENT LAW ACTIVE.  THE ANNOUNCEMENT IS FOR THIS TO BE DONE TODAY [MONDAY] OR TOMORROW.   THEY ARE EXPECTING THE NEW LAW TO ATTRACT INVESTMENT BUT ARE RELIANT ON THE CONDITIONS TO CHANGE…IT IS APPARENT THAT THE LAWS ARE EXPECTED TO BE COMPETITIVE WITH OTHER INTERNATIONAL INVESTMENT LAWS — THIS SHOWS THE GOAL IS TO GO GLOBAL AND THE LAW IS TO BE DONE WITHIN DAYS.

Mnt Goat – They also told us it would be paid out on the new “National” card and not their current Q –Card of SMART card.  We know they plan to combine the two cards into one card…I have to tell you there were still hundreds of thousands of citizens who did not receive there cards… They are preparing to pay out on HCL oil revenues. Yes – once again this is their intention. They MUST distribute part of this oil revenue to the people as in the HCL law. The HCL is not complete without these ongoing rolling payments to the citizens.  This must be done prior to any RV.   This is why these cards are so important. This means they are getting serious about it once again. When they begin using these new National cards they want the ability to make these payments to be an international usage.   [post 2 of 2]

Mnt Goat – …the recent blocking of the internet in Iraq has nothing…to do with the preparation for the RV.  By blocking the internet Abadi has also blocked a strategic means of ISIS and DAASH communications.  Another rumor to I must also discount today is about the reports that conquerable by military forces by American or Iraqi, that stormed the CBI and confiscated documents going back to 2003.  The next piece of juicy news is about the National Unified cards. We all know, as it has been confirmed, the Iraqi citizens currently have a Q- card (or SMART card)…It is NOT yet fully international until the currency is turned on in the international exchanges. In April of this year the told us they wanted to begin payout to the citizens of the oil revenues. [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

Kaperoni – Article quotes:  “We don’t see an immediate devaluation but we see more pressure on the peg the longer the situation continues as buffers get eroded.”  “Concerns that oil-dependent economies may abandon their pegs intensified after Kazakhstan allowed its currency to float…”  They won’t devalue.  They just need to stay pegged long enough for the economic reforms/loans to take hold and then they can begin the float. 
______________________________________________________________

BGG – …it appears the CBI sales are retreating and the Dinar is remaining stable (if not starting to strengthen)… this means less corruption – more confidence.  I am plenty excited to see what Abadi’s reforms bring and how quickly it all comes together – because, quite honestly – that IS THE WHOLE BALL – GAME right now.

Parliamentary Finance: strong and modern Iraqi dinar opposite just rumors

Zora / Duraid Salman: Parliamentary Finance Committee has ruled out the possibility for the collapse of the Iraqi national currency against the backdrop of the financial crisis that beset the country, and described the news you are talking about as “rumors” promoted by some currency traders in order to achieve an illegal advantage, as he emphasized that oil imports enough yet to pay salaries Mozvin.oukal Committee member Masood Haider Rustam told the “Zora”, yesterday: news that talk about for the collapse of the Iraqi national currency due to the financial crisis, are just “concerns incorrect and untrue,” attributing the cause to that of the Iraqi dinar strong enough to withstand .

Rustam said: that the amount of the Iraqi dinar circulating in the market currently estimated at about 40 trillion dinars, and Iraq has a financial reserve of hard currency is estimated at 60 billion dollars, that is as much as 150% of the Iraqi currency…

______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat – There is nothing in the grey side or mysterious about why they are stalling the change over of the currency…they had postponed the currency reforms due to three reasons:  1) money laundering and bad banking practice.  2) wide spread corruption.  3) security reasons.  Nothing grey or mysterious about it…So Iraq must first make the necessary changes. The reforms and the laws needed to back them up and implement them are needed first. It’s not all about the RV.  The RV is simply a by-product of the process of bringing the country of Iraq online with the international community and do it such a way as to created stability and progress in their country and in the region.
______________________________________________________________

Bluedog – SECURITY HAS BEEN SET FORTH IN IRAQ ALONG WITH THE IMF…THEY JUST WANT THE CBI TO BE SECURE AND TRUST WORTHY AS IT HAS BEEN A DEN OF THIEVES SINCE SHABIBI LEFT.   WHERE IS THAT NATIONAL GUARD LAW HMMMMM WAITING FOR FUNDING AS I TOLD YOU…WHEN YOU SEE THAT PASSED THEN YOUR GOLDEN…ALL IMO.  OH…THE CBI…GIVE THAT SOME ROOM TO BE CORRECTED THEN YOU WILL SEE A CHANGE IN PLANS.   [post 2 of 2]
______________________________________________________________

tman23 – Word was 9/8 there was a change coming to the CBI… 9/8 was to be a big day for Parliament and Ministers… what happened on 9/8…A deputy minister of the judical was kidnapped…his body guards were released which is strange… So Abadi cancels meetings and holds special meeting late night… Then Abadi goes to appear in front of Parliament Thursday for a speech…gets to the doors and turns around as an emergency situation came up…Then the CBI news of troop takeover… BUT…similar events had happened in the past only different scenarios…meaning when they get close to changing something, somebody starts a fire in the hallway.

Bloomberg: Central Bank sees limited risk of devaluation

______________________________________________________________

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.

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]

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…

WELCOME TO ROUND TABLE CHAT w/BGG

Thanks to Dinar Recaps for posting Round Table w/BGG

BGG: I have some commentary “in review” of yesterday…

BGG: Maybe I should have been a little more “tender” with my words. I used the word “RV” apparently currencies don’t do that (otherwise I’m an idiot – according to some commenters). I say… SEMANTICS

BGG: I care very little what terminology gets used. I care about getting things started OFF!!

BGG: Whatever the number – or the term – or what the “title page” looks like – J I’m just looking for THE JUMPING OFF POINT.

BGG: because once it gets going (again) their market will take care of the rest.

The Exchange Rate of Foreign Currency in Economic Feasibility Studies 

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.

Estimate the shadow price of foreign currency:…

3.      Estimate the amended exchange rate of the Iraqi dinar to be used in technical and economical feasibility studies and for (1.134) dollar per dinar. This price should be approved for 3 years until re-appreciation by the competent authorities.

Adam Montana – [The HCL: Any chance of that being resolved before Dec.?]  HCL – yes, I do have high hopes for pre-December!  [how confident do you feel that an RV may happen before the end of the year?]  Provided the HCL goes through, I am optimistic. On a scale of 1-10: Cake.

Breitling – … it should have been here…we don’t know.  What’s going on…what’s the problem?  There is no problem, it’s a process.  Who knows what it is they’re looking at.  We don’t know.  That’s a HUGE advantage for Iraq…it’s a huge plus.  The way they are managing the rebuild of their country, they are doing it right…they have no control over the political and religious influence one way or the other but they definitely  have control over the value of their currency so they can add more value to it and that is exactly what they are doing.  [Post 2 of 2]

BGG – […is MALIKI and his cronies gone…no one knows that if the WB and IMF got what they needed before Oct 1…?]   Maliki is not gone (yet) – he is struggling to remain… The WB and IMF (as I understand it) got their deadline met… which further opens the door for MR [Monetary Reform].    on a related note – the auction for the day [Wednesday]  goes one step further than yesterday – same $$ amount – spread out over 42 VARIOUS MONETARY OUTLETS!! WOW!!   so it would appear the beginning stages of Abadi’s reforms are starting to take hold.

Chalabi: Detection of “dollar auction gangs” in the Central Bank

Between the head of the parliamentary finance committee, Ahmad Chalabi, on Thursday, the central bank sold to banks own “312” billion dollars under the pretext of import, revealing that the government needs to “115” billion dollars only.

He revealed Chalabi, said the Finance Committee revealed the dollar auction gangs in the bank Central, and reached extensive information, but there is no response from the central bank or from the government according to the source.

Chalabi said “551” billion dollars entered Iraq from 2006 to 2014 “and that” imports of the Iraqi state in full, of food, clothing, fuel and weapons , only “115” billion dollars “do not need, and Acharvi interview told” news “that the central bank sold to banks for import under the pretext of” 312 “billion dollars, equivalent to 270% of the imports of the state.”

tman23 – Well I see the investment law vote was postponed…AGAIN…A mystery indeed. But it certainly leads to the theory that the 3 zeros may be required to be gone before the proceed… And I say this because this investment law is tied DIRECTLY to the iisd summit that has started and will end 10/1…with special meetings for agreements closing 10/5.
______________________________________________________________

Breitling – The “two year process” has nothing to do with it’s not going to revalue at the beginning.  The two year process has to do with reducing the note count, adding value to the currency and adding a new currency to the economy in ABOUT a two year time frame…I say “about” because it’s not an exact science and they don’t have an exact say over it…you can’t just push a button.  Is IT around the corner?

tlm724 – Article:  “Urgent .. Parliament postpones vote on the Investment Law and proceed to vote on the money laundering law”  I’d be ok if they just get the AML done then they can deal with the paragraphs in the investment law…
______________________________________________________________

Kaperoni – Article quote:  “Finance Committee in the House of Representatives propose to the central bank and the government to adopt “restrictive flotation” in the auction currency...”    I do believe, once they stabilize the country and get the economy going, the CBI will float the dinar. How and when that starts is yet to be determined.  The good news is these kinds of articles seem to be more frequent.

Mnt Goat – Sooooooooooo much news coming out of Iraq I can hardly believe the progress and all in the right direction.  …I believe it is a critical period we are now entering and all of you should be prepared for anything to happen in the very near future…this timeframe from mid September onward is a critical timeframe for Iraq and much is riding on them completing these economic reforms and other reforms on time.

Kaperoni – Article: “House of Representatives vote on the anti-money laundering and the financing of terrorism law” Quote: “The Presidency has decided to postpone the vote on the draft second amendment to the Law of Investment Law No. 13 of 2006 and submitted by the committees economy, investment and financial study to be ripening and vote the event of a resumption of meetings after Eid al-Adha.  The Council voted on a draft anti-money laundering law and the financing of terrorism…And then it decided to adjourn the meeting until Tuesday 29/9/2015”   …removing the Investment Law to a later time does not surprise me.
______________________________________________________________

BGG – …He said the Information Office of Ebadi said in a statement, said the cabinet approved the draft Cancel the posts of Vice President of the Republic Act…”   Cabinet approves bill to cancel the posts of Vice-President of the Republic Act.  MALIKI IS GONE (soon)…not only is the CoM wanting to push forward the removal of these crooks (as a law) – but they are also withdrawing ALL the previous junk not voted on yet.  IT’S HUGE NEWS!!
______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat – …parliament was to supposed to vote on the draft anti-money laundering and terrorism financing law today…This is another one much needed for the reforms…we also see a vote on…the Investment law on the …today.  Hurray! …these reforms are tied to reinstating their currency meaning RV time!
______________________________________________________________

Kaperoni – Article:  “Cabinet Approves Cancel posts of Vice-President of the Republic and referred to parliament”   Though this sounds good, the key here is the CoM was probably told what PM Abadi’s  plan to cancel the vice presidencies was unconstitutional.  And so the CoM just wrote a bill to disolve them…and now it says it has been submitted to parliament for a vote.   In other words, parliament will decide if they are cancelled or not.
______________________________________________________________

BGG – [So all the laws are going to be passed all at once? is that correct?]   …the AML Law and Investment Law are on the agenda.  Anti-Money Laundering Law…This is the one the WB and IMF want…likely pointed directly at Maliki and his corrupt gang.  […the iraqi parliament agenda for tomorrow [Wednesday]…says “The vote on the draft anti-money laundering and terrorism financing law.” and “The vote on the draft second amendment to the Law of Investment”.]   …sounds like a vote to me.  That is good news.   [When everything is voted thru, then when is it Implemented…When should they Revalue or RV?] value can happen anytime… these are just things that OBVIOUSLY open the door wide for monetary reform…but there is nothing that says they can’t do whatever they want when the “obstructionists” are well “on the ropes”.  [All the laws are NOT needed for international acceptance.]  you are correct.
______________________________________________________________

tlm724 – Article:  “Selling foreign bonds to fill budget deficit”   I don’t think they will have much trouble selling these bonds after tomorrows vote on the AML and investment law, those laws will provide a certain level of confidence.

Aggiedad77 – …Parliament tomorrow…voting on not one but two important laws…Investment Law AND the Anti-Money Laundering Law...stellar on their part if they pull it off…then the cherry on top of this ice cream soda is the presence of PM Abadi in Parliament.  A reschedule of his cancelled visit from last Thursday that was postponed as he put one foot inside the Parliament then had to leave for “emergency reasons”…Will he be handing out pink slips to Parliament members who have over stayed their welcome by not showing up for the dance each week…or is he going to roll those corrupt heads out of Parliament.  Or maybe just tell them we are transitioning to a democratic process and as a result your services will no longer be needed in their current capacity but if you are an honest bloke we might have room for you in our new Congress…who knows…maybe he just wants to visit.
______________________________________________________________

Tlar – …the CBI admitted in an article that they had planned to implement but postponed deleting the zeros four times in the last four years.  Maliki had put up so many obstacles and roadblocks culminating in an  arrest warrant on Shabibi.  Ultimately while PM Maliki did arrest a lot of the top guys running the CBI including Saleh, Shabibi’s right hand man.  Abadi exonerated Saleh and made him his personal economic adviser.  So Abadi is doing all the right things but because Maliki is trying to thwart his every move and kill the reforms, the going is slow.  Abadi will get the reforms done and will clean  the government of all the corrupt officials as long as he is not killed.  We will eventually see our RV that should have happened as far back as 2010.  Iraq has no choice if they are to ever open their economy which they desperately need to do.  If Abadi can get the requirements of the IMF and the WB done by October there is still a possibility we could see it then but that’s a tall order.  I think it will more than likely be January.   [post 3 of 3]
______________________________________________________________

Tlar – He is also trying to get rid of the head of the Judiciary, Maliki’s guy and has intentions to replace the head of the CBI.  He wants all qualified technocrats running all positions in government and has stated publicly that he will give the jobs to the most qualified people paying no attention to secular quotas.  The reforms are meant to get rid of corruption in Government and to punish corrupt officials that have been stealing the society blind for the last 8 years under Maliki.  The reforms are also intended to recoup the stolen funds and right the wrongs under Maliki.  This includes most of the politicians over there.  The people in Iraq are solidly behind him and are demonstrating in the streets supporting his reforms.  My only fear is as they start to prosecute the bad guys, they will try to assassinate Abadi, but Abadi has stated publicly that he will see the reforms through even if it costs him his life which to me smells of his getting death threats.  Prosecutions and arrests are already being made.  Over 300 people including politicians are no longer allowed to leave the country.  Arrest warrants are being issued to round up the corrupt.  On a good note…   [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

Stryker – Today Abadi’s Cabinet Approves Maliki’s Exit and the withdrawal of Maliki’s Governments Laws! Vice-President Maliki is History.
______________________________________________________________

Tlar – I am afraid that the dinar will not happen this year.  October has a chance but I am thinking January 2016 is most likely more realistic.  Abadi, the prime minister is in the process of cleaning house of all the corrupt politicians that Maliki had put in place.  Maliki himself will most likely be on trial soon as they are preparing charges against him.  But this is Iraq and anything can happen. The IMF and WB both have put conditions on Iraq that they must clean house and get rid of corruption and pass the money laundering law by October 1st.  Its an uphill battle but all the religious guys including Hakin, Sadr and al-Sistani are behind Abaidi and his reforms.  Parliament voted unanimously to support a list of things in support of Abadi and his reforms going so far as giving him the power to eliminate the parliament itself and start over.  Abadi has relieved the three presidencies abolishing them altogether.  Allawi, Maliki and Najaifi are all supposedly out of a job and are no longer considered a part of the government.  All three have refused to go away so that will be another fight for Abadi.  [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]

BGG ~ I don’t agree – so posting this isn’t meant to imply some kind of endorsement of this point of view…

______________________________________________________________

BGG – [do you think the WB will really blacklist Iraq if they do not get everything done by the 1st…or is that just a loud threat?]   I think they would – but I also think Iraq will get the AML Law passed (or close) before then…and I suspect as long as the vote is taken – (or some other serious effort) they will be fine…obviously, it’s not just the Law they want – they want it enforced. NO MONEY LAUNDERING…so the point is – it’s not just the Law – it’s Maliki they want (and everyone else it seems)…
______________________________________________________________

______________________________________________________________

BGG – …bonds or no bonds – they need monetary reform ASAP AND they have to deal with the corruption – PERIOD.   I think (IMHO) once Maliki is fully marginalized – an “emergency currency move” (up – not down…) become a very real possibility. Abadi needs the money to keep after ISIS.
______________________________________________________________

Bluedog – SO THE U.S. STORMS THE CBI… CBI IS IN FULL OPERATION?  DO NOT THINK SO TO THE OPEN EYE…THEY TRAINED PEOPLE TO FILL THOSE POSITIONS…MOVING THINGS AROUND A BIT AND GAINING CORRUPT MOVEMENTS…IM SURE THERE WERE SOME BAD EGGS THAT GOT ARRESTED OR DETAINED…  MEANWHILE MEETINGS PLANNED IN EUROPE AND THE USA WITH ZEBARI AND SALEH DID NOT BEAR FRUIT...  THE GOI IS IN THE SHUFFLE MODE…OVER ONE HUNDRED OFFICIALS FIRED LIKE TRUMP WOULD DO AND NEW ONES MOST TRAINED IN THE USA FOR SUCH A TIME AS THIS.  HANG IN THERE…THEY ARE JUST ABOUT TO TAKE A BOW FROM THE CENTER STAGE OF THIS PERFORMANCE BUT YOU GOT TIME TO HIT THE LOBBY FOR POPCORN…THE INTERNET IS DOWN…NOW IS YOUR CHANCE GET A LARGE SODA TOO…BEFORE THE CURTAIN OPENS BACK UP…IMO.
______________________________________________________________

Aggiedad77 – …it would seem the COM (Council of Ministers) was overly busy today… they approved the cancellation of the VP and Vice PM positions…But to me just as important, maybe more so…they approved the withdrawal of all laws directed to Parliament by the previous government (Maliki) basically making those efforts null and void…after that…they approved a mechanism for payment for stalled projects or projects that were lagging due to lack of funds…interesting to say the least this last effort…Coming at at time when liquidity was an issue…but remember all the funds that have been flowing back into Iraq…back into the banks from the thievery and corrupt efforts that have been nailed by the Integrity Commission…

Cabinet approves bill to cancel the posts of Vice-President of the Republic Act

Khandan – Iraq’s Council of Ministers held on Tuesday, its regular-sixth session under the chairmanship of Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi, discussed in the beginning of the meeting developments in the military and security situation, and a number of issues on its agenda. He said the Information Office of Ebadi said in a statement, said the cabinet approved the draft Cancel the posts of Vice President of the Republic Act and submitted it to the House of Representatives based on the provisions of Articles 61 / item I, 80 / item II of the Constitution. The Council decided also that the Ministry of Agriculture adoption of support by 80 percent of the total cost of the seeds of wheat and barley crops. and approved by the Council of Ministers the withdrawal of laws sent projects to the parliament by the previous government for the purpose of review…

Millionday – Article quote:  “And witnessed the Investment Law No. (31) for the year 2006 to make some amendments to paragraphs and materials, which is likely to approve the next two days…”  THIS IS THE ANNOUNCEMENT OF PLANS TO HAVE THE INVESTMENT LAW ACTIVE.  THE ANNOUNCEMENT IS FOR THIS TO BE DONE TODAY [MONDAY] OR TOMORROW.   THEY ARE EXPECTING THE NEW LAW TO ATTRACT INVESTMENT BUT ARE RELIANT ON THE CONDITIONS TO CHANGE…IT IS APPARENT THAT THE LAWS ARE EXPECTED TO BE COMPETITIVE WITH OTHER INTERNATIONAL INVESTMENT LAWS — THIS SHOWS THE GOAL IS TO GO GLOBAL AND THE LAW IS TO BE DONE WITHIN DAYS.
______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat – They also told us it would be paid out on the new “National” card and not their current Q –Card of SMART card.  We know they plan to combine the two cards into one card…I have to tell you there were still hundreds of thousands of citizens who did not receive there cards… They are preparing to pay out on HCL oil revenues. Yes – once again this is their intention. They MUST distribute part of this oil revenue to the people as in the HCL law. The HCL is not complete without these ongoing rolling payments to the citizens.  This must be done prior to any RV.   This is why these cards are so important. This means they are getting serious about it once again. When they begin using these new National cards they want the ability to make these payments to be an international usage.   [post 2 of 2]

Mnt Goat – …the recent blocking of the internet in Iraq has nothing…to do with the preparation for the RV.  By blocking the internet Abadi has also blocked a strategic means of ISIS and DAASH communications.  Another rumor to I must also discount today is about the reports that conquerable by military forces by American or Iraqi, that stormed the CBI and confiscated documents going back to 2003.  The next piece of juicy news is about the National Unified cards. We all know, as it has been confirmed, the Iraqi citizens currently have a Q- card (or SMART card)…It is NOT yet fully international until the currency is turned on in the international exchanges. In April of this year the told us they wanted to begin payout to the citizens of the oil revenues. [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

Kaperoni – Article quotes:  “We don’t see an immediate devaluation but we see more pressure on the peg the longer the situation continues as buffers get eroded.”  “Concerns that oil-dependent economies may abandon their pegs intensified after Kazakhstan allowed its currency to float…”  They won’t devalue.  They just need to stay pegged long enough for the economic reforms/loans to take hold and then they can begin the float. 
______________________________________________________________

BGG – …it appears the CBI sales are retreating and the Dinar is remaining stable (if not starting to strengthen)… this means less corruption – more confidence.  I am plenty excited to see what Abadi’s reforms bring and how quickly it all comes together – because, quite honestly – that IS THE WHOLE BALL – GAME right now.

Parliamentary Finance: strong and modern Iraqi dinar opposite just rumors

Zora / Duraid Salman: Parliamentary Finance Committee has ruled out the possibility for the collapse of the Iraqi national currency against the backdrop of the financial crisis that beset the country, and described the news you are talking about as “rumors” promoted by some currency traders in order to achieve an illegal advantage, as he emphasized that oil imports enough yet to pay salaries Mozvin.oukal Committee member Masood Haider Rustam told the “Zora”, yesterday: news that talk about for the collapse of the Iraqi national currency due to the financial crisis, are just “concerns incorrect and untrue,” attributing the cause to that of the Iraqi dinar strong enough to withstand .

Rustam said: that the amount of the Iraqi dinar circulating in the market currently estimated at about 40 trillion dinars, and Iraq has a financial reserve of hard currency is estimated at 60 billion dollars, that is as much as 150% of the Iraqi currency…

______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat – There is nothing in the grey side or mysterious about why they are stalling the change over of the currency…they had postponed the currency reforms due to three reasons:  1) money laundering and bad banking practice.  2) wide spread corruption.  3) security reasons.  Nothing grey or mysterious about it…So Iraq must first make the necessary changes. The reforms and the laws needed to back them up and implement them are needed first. It’s not all about the RV.  The RV is simply a by-product of the process of bringing the country of Iraq online with the international community and do it such a way as to created stability and progress in their country and in the region.
______________________________________________________________

Bluedog – SECURITY HAS BEEN SET FORTH IN IRAQ ALONG WITH THE IMF…THEY JUST WANT THE CBI TO BE SECURE AND TRUST WORTHY AS IT HAS BEEN A DEN OF THIEVES SINCE SHABIBI LEFT.   WHERE IS THAT NATIONAL GUARD LAW HMMMMM WAITING FOR FUNDING AS I TOLD YOU…WHEN YOU SEE THAT PASSED THEN YOUR GOLDEN…ALL IMO.  OH…THE CBI…GIVE THAT SOME ROOM TO BE CORRECTED THEN YOU WILL SEE A CHANGE IN PLANS.   [post 2 of 2]
______________________________________________________________

tman23 – Word was 9/8 there was a change coming to the CBI… 9/8 was to be a big day for Parliament and Ministers… what happened on 9/8…A deputy minister of the judical was kidnapped…his body guards were released which is strange… So Abadi cancels meetings and holds special meeting late night… Then Abadi goes to appear in front of Parliament Thursday for a speech…gets to the doors and turns around as an emergency situation came up…Then the CBI news of troop takeover… BUT…similar events had happened in the past only different scenarios…meaning when they get close to changing something, somebody starts a fire in the hallway.

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.

Iran behind assassinations and abductions in Iraq

______________________________________________________________

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]

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…

With both Sistani & Sadr addressing Turkish hostage issue, seems fair to assume captors are indeed Shia. But also highly marginal ones.
______________________________________________________________

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 ~ great word Tman23 – good job sticking to your info…looks like (generally) something is up there…

Backdoc – TODAY ON BLOOMBERG I HEARD THAT MITCH McCONNELL, SENATE MAJORITY LEADER, SAID THAT THEY MAY TAKE ANOTHER VOTE IN A WEEK OR SO TO MAKE SURE THAT NOBODY HAS CHANGED THEIR MIND! MMMM…NOW THAT’S INTERESTING. WHY WOULD HE DO THAT?  HE ALSO SAID IF THERE WERE NO CHANGES ON THE VOTE THEY MAY ACTIVATE THE SANCTION RELEASE PROCESS ON GUESS WHAT DAY?  NO SURPRISE TO ME… OCTOBER 8TH!! A NEW BEGINNING AGAIN? MY NOSE IS TRACKING IRAN! IT’S ALL ABOUT THE DEAL!  I SMELL A RELEASE OF MANY ASSET BACKED CURRENCIES IN THE VERY NEAR FUTURE! JUST LIKE THEY SAY IN IRAQ… ALL IN ONE BASKET!   [post 2 of 2]
______________________________________________________________

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.

WELCOME TO ROUND TABLE CHAT w/BGG

Thanks to Dinar Recaps for posting Round Table w/BGG

BGG: I have some commentary “in review” of yesterday…

BGG: Maybe I should have been a little more “tender” with my words. I used the word “RV” apparently currencies don’t do that (otherwise I’m an idiot – according to some commenters). I say… SEMANTICS

BGG: I care very little what terminology gets used. I care about getting things started OFF!!

BGG: Whatever the number – or the term – or what the “title page” looks like – J I’m just looking for THE JUMPING OFF POINT.

BGG: because once it gets going (again) their market will take care of the rest.

The Exchange Rate of Foreign Currency in Economic Feasibility Studies 

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.

Estimate the shadow price of foreign currency:…

3.      Estimate the amended exchange rate of the Iraqi dinar to be used in technical and economical feasibility studies and for (1.134) dollar per dinar. This price should be approved for 3 years until re-appreciation by the competent authorities.

tlm724 – Article:  “Urgent .. Parliament postpones vote on the Investment Law and proceed to vote on the money laundering law”  I’d be ok if they just get the AML done then they can deal with the paragraphs in the investment law…
______________________________________________________________

Kaperoni – Article quote:  “Finance Committee in the House of Representatives propose to the central bank and the government to adopt “restrictive flotation” in the auction currency...”    I do believe, once they stabilize the country and get the economy going, the CBI will float the dinar. How and when that starts is yet to be determined.  The good news is these kinds of articles seem to be more frequent.

Kaperoni – Article: “House of Representatives vote on the anti-money laundering and the financing of terrorism law” Quote: “The Presidency has decided to postpone the vote on the draft second amendment to the Law of Investment Law No. 13 of 2006 and submitted by the committees economy, investment and financial study to be ripening and vote the event of a resumption of meetings after Eid al-Adha.  The Council voted on a draft anti-money laundering law and the financing of terrorism…And then it decided to adjourn the meeting until Tuesday 29/9/2015”   …removing the Investment Law to a later time does not surprise me.
______________________________________________________________

BGG – …He said the Information Office of Ebadi said in a statement, said the cabinet approved the draft Cancel the posts of Vice President of the Republic Act…”   Cabinet approves bill to cancel the posts of Vice-President of the Republic Act.  MALIKI IS GONE (soon)…not only is the CoM wanting to push forward the removal of these crooks (as a law) – but they are also withdrawing ALL the previous junk not voted on yet.  IT’S HUGE NEWS!!
______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat – …parliament was to supposed to vote on the draft anti-money laundering and terrorism financing law today…This is another one much needed for the reforms…we also see a vote on…the Investment law on the …today.  Hurray! …these reforms are tied to reinstating their currency meaning RV time!
______________________________________________________________

Kaperoni – Article:  “Cabinet Approves Cancel posts of Vice-President of the Republic and referred to parliament”   Though this sounds good, the key here is the CoM was probably told what PM Abadi’s  plan to cancel the vice presidencies was unconstitutional.  And so the CoM just wrote a bill to disolve them…and now it says it has been submitted to parliament for a vote.   In other words, parliament will decide if they are cancelled or not.
______________________________________________________________

BGG – [So all the laws are going to be passed all at once? is that correct?]   …the AML Law and Investment Law are on the agenda.  Anti-Money Laundering Law…This is the one the WB and IMF want…likely pointed directly at Maliki and his corrupt gang.  […the iraqi parliament agenda for tomorrow [Wednesday]…says “The vote on the draft anti-money laundering and terrorism financing law.” and “The vote on the draft second amendment to the Law of Investment”.]   …sounds like a vote to me.  That is good news.   [When everything is voted thru, then when is it Implemented…When should they Revalue or RV?] value can happen anytime… these are just things that OBVIOUSLY open the door wide for monetary reform…but there is nothing that says they can’t do whatever they want when the “obstructionists” are well “on the ropes”.  [All the laws are NOT needed for international acceptance.]  you are correct.
______________________________________________________________

tlm724 – Article:  “Selling foreign bonds to fill budget deficit”   I don’t think they will have much trouble selling these bonds after tomorrows vote on the AML and investment law, those laws will provide a certain level of confidence.

Aggiedad77 – …Parliament tomorrow…voting on not one but two important laws…Investment Law AND the Anti-Money Laundering Law...stellar on their part if they pull it off…then the cherry on top of this ice cream soda is the presence of PM Abadi in Parliament.  A reschedule of his cancelled visit from last Thursday that was postponed as he put one foot inside the Parliament then had to leave for “emergency reasons”…Will he be handing out pink slips to Parliament members who have over stayed their welcome by not showing up for the dance each week…or is he going to roll those corrupt heads out of Parliament.  Or maybe just tell them we are transitioning to a democratic process and as a result your services will no longer be needed in their current capacity but if you are an honest bloke we might have room for you in our new Congress…who knows…maybe he just wants to visit.
______________________________________________________________

Tlar – …the CBI admitted in an article that they had planned to implement but postponed deleting the zeros four times in the last four years.  Maliki had put up so many obstacles and roadblocks culminating in an  arrest warrant on Shabibi.  Ultimately while PM Maliki did arrest a lot of the top guys running the CBI including Saleh, Shabibi’s right hand man.  Abadi exonerated Saleh and made him his personal economic adviser.  So Abadi is doing all the right things but because Maliki is trying to thwart his every move and kill the reforms, the going is slow.  Abadi will get the reforms done and will clean  the government of all the corrupt officials as long as he is not killed.  We will eventually see our RV that should have happened as far back as 2010.  Iraq has no choice if they are to ever open their economy which they desperately need to do.  If Abadi can get the requirements of the IMF and the WB done by October there is still a possibility we could see it then but that’s a tall order.  I think it will more than likely be January.   [post 3 of 3]
______________________________________________________________

Tlar – He is also trying to get rid of the head of the Judiciary, Maliki’s guy and has intentions to replace the head of the CBI.  He wants all qualified technocrats running all positions in government and has stated publicly that he will give the jobs to the most qualified people paying no attention to secular quotas.  The reforms are meant to get rid of corruption in Government and to punish corrupt officials that have been stealing the society blind for the last 8 years under Maliki.  The reforms are also intended to recoup the stolen funds and right the wrongs under Maliki.  This includes most of the politicians over there.  The people in Iraq are solidly behind him and are demonstrating in the streets supporting his reforms.  My only fear is as they start to prosecute the bad guys, they will try to assassinate Abadi, but Abadi has stated publicly that he will see the reforms through even if it costs him his life which to me smells of his getting death threats.  Prosecutions and arrests are already being made.  Over 300 people including politicians are no longer allowed to leave the country.  Arrest warrants are being issued to round up the corrupt.  On a good note…   [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

Stryker – Today Abadi’s Cabinet Approves Maliki’s Exit and the withdrawal of Maliki’s Governments Laws! Vice-President Maliki is History.
______________________________________________________________

Tlar – I am afraid that the dinar will not happen this year.  October has a chance but I am thinking January 2016 is most likely more realistic.  Abadi, the prime minister is in the process of cleaning house of all the corrupt politicians that Maliki had put in place.  Maliki himself will most likely be on trial soon as they are preparing charges against him.  But this is Iraq and anything can happen. The IMF and WB both have put conditions on Iraq that they must clean house and get rid of corruption and pass the money laundering law by October 1st.  Its an uphill battle but all the religious guys including Hakin, Sadr and al-Sistani are behind Abaidi and his reforms.  Parliament voted unanimously to support a list of things in support of Abadi and his reforms going so far as giving him the power to eliminate the parliament itself and start over.  Abadi has relieved the three presidencies abolishing them altogether.  Allawi, Maliki and Najaifi are all supposedly out of a job and are no longer considered a part of the government.  All three have refused to go away so that will be another fight for Abadi.  [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]

BGG ~ I don’t agree – so posting this isn’t meant to imply some kind of endorsement of this point of view…

______________________________________________________________

BGG – [do you think the WB will really blacklist Iraq if they do not get everything done by the 1st…or is that just a loud threat?]   I think they would – but I also think Iraq will get the AML Law passed (or close) before then…and I suspect as long as the vote is taken – (or some other serious effort) they will be fine…obviously, it’s not just the Law they want – they want it enforced. NO MONEY LAUNDERING…so the point is – it’s not just the Law – it’s Maliki they want (and everyone else it seems)…
______________________________________________________________

______________________________________________________________

BGG – …bonds or no bonds – they need monetary reform ASAP AND they have to deal with the corruption – PERIOD.   I think (IMHO) once Maliki is fully marginalized – an “emergency currency move” (up – not down…) become a very real possibility. Abadi needs the money to keep after ISIS.
______________________________________________________________

Bluedog – SO THE U.S. STORMS THE CBI… CBI IS IN FULL OPERATION?  DO NOT THINK SO TO THE OPEN EYE…THEY TRAINED PEOPLE TO FILL THOSE POSITIONS…MOVING THINGS AROUND A BIT AND GAINING CORRUPT MOVEMENTS…IM SURE THERE WERE SOME BAD EGGS THAT GOT ARRESTED OR DETAINED…  MEANWHILE MEETINGS PLANNED IN EUROPE AND THE USA WITH ZEBARI AND SALEH DID NOT BEAR FRUIT...  THE GOI IS IN THE SHUFFLE MODE…OVER ONE HUNDRED OFFICIALS FIRED LIKE TRUMP WOULD DO AND NEW ONES MOST TRAINED IN THE USA FOR SUCH A TIME AS THIS.  HANG IN THERE…THEY ARE JUST ABOUT TO TAKE A BOW FROM THE CENTER STAGE OF THIS PERFORMANCE BUT YOU GOT TIME TO HIT THE LOBBY FOR POPCORN…THE INTERNET IS DOWN…NOW IS YOUR CHANCE GET A LARGE SODA TOO…BEFORE THE CURTAIN OPENS BACK UP…IMO.
______________________________________________________________

Aggiedad77 – …it would seem the COM (Council of Ministers) was overly busy today… they approved the cancellation of the VP and Vice PM positions…But to me just as important, maybe more so…they approved the withdrawal of all laws directed to Parliament by the previous government (Maliki) basically making those efforts null and void…after that…they approved a mechanism for payment for stalled projects or projects that were lagging due to lack of funds…interesting to say the least this last effort…Coming at at time when liquidity was an issue…but remember all the funds that have been flowing back into Iraq…back into the banks from the thievery and corrupt efforts that have been nailed by the Integrity Commission…

Cabinet approves bill to cancel the posts of Vice-President of the Republic Act

Khandan – Iraq’s Council of Ministers held on Tuesday, its regular-sixth session under the chairmanship of Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi, discussed in the beginning of the meeting developments in the military and security situation, and a number of issues on its agenda. He said the Information Office of Ebadi said in a statement, said the cabinet approved the draft Cancel the posts of Vice President of the Republic Act and submitted it to the House of Representatives based on the provisions of Articles 61 / item I, 80 / item II of the Constitution. The Council decided also that the Ministry of Agriculture adoption of support by 80 percent of the total cost of the seeds of wheat and barley crops. and approved by the Council of Ministers the withdrawal of laws sent projects to the parliament by the previous government for the purpose of review…

Article brought in from Holly1 from the Chat Room (posted by Mrs BGG this AM)

______________________________________________________________

Millionday – Article quote:  “And witnessed the Investment Law No. (31) for the year 2006 to make some amendments to paragraphs and materials, which is likely to approve the next two days…”  THIS IS THE ANNOUNCEMENT OF PLANS TO HAVE THE INVESTMENT LAW ACTIVE.  THE ANNOUNCEMENT IS FOR THIS TO BE DONE TODAY [MONDAY] OR TOMORROW.   THEY ARE EXPECTING THE NEW LAW TO ATTRACT INVESTMENT BUT ARE RELIANT ON THE CONDITIONS TO CHANGE…IT IS APPARENT THAT THE LAWS ARE EXPECTED TO BE COMPETITIVE WITH OTHER INTERNATIONAL INVESTMENT LAWS — THIS SHOWS THE GOAL IS TO GO GLOBAL AND THE LAW IS TO BE DONE WITHIN DAYS.
______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat – They also told us it would be paid out on the new “National” card and not their current Q –Card of SMART card.  We know they plan to combine the two cards into one card…I have to tell you there were still hundreds of thousands of citizens who did not receive there cards… They are preparing to pay out on HCL oil revenues. Yes – once again this is their intention. They MUST distribute part of this oil revenue to the people as in the HCL law. The HCL is not complete without these ongoing rolling payments to the citizens.  This must be done prior to any RV.   This is why these cards are so important. This means they are getting serious about it once again. When they begin using these new National cards they want the ability to make these payments to be an international usage.   [post 2 of 2]

firefly – …found this VERY interesting. It is from CNN dated today:  “Iraq plans bond offering for brave investors”   So all those people telling us the bonds went on sale and are a failure…well…THE BONDS HAVE NOT GONE LIVE YET!

Mnt Goat – …the recent blocking of the internet in Iraq has nothing…to do with the preparation for the RV.  By blocking the internet Abadi has also blocked a strategic means of ISIS and DAASH communications.  Another rumor to I must also discount today is about the reports that conquerable by military forces by American or Iraqi, that stormed the CBI and confiscated documents going back to 2003.  The next piece of juicy news is about the National Unified cards. We all know, as it has been confirmed, the Iraqi citizens currently have a Q- card (or SMART card)…It is NOT yet fully international until the currency is turned on in the international exchanges. In April of this year the told us they wanted to begin payout to the citizens of the oil revenues. [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

Kaperoni – Article quotes:  “We don’t see an immediate devaluation but we see more pressure on the peg the longer the situation continues as buffers get eroded.”  “Concerns that oil-dependent economies may abandon their pegs intensified after Kazakhstan allowed its currency to float…”  They won’t devalue.  They just need to stay pegged long enough for the economic reforms/loans to take hold and then they can begin the float. 
______________________________________________________________

BGG – …it appears the CBI sales are retreating and the Dinar is remaining stable (if not starting to strengthen)… this means less corruption – more confidence.  I am plenty excited to see what Abadi’s reforms bring and how quickly it all comes together – because, quite honestly – that IS THE WHOLE BALL – GAME right now.

Parliamentary Finance: strong and modern Iraqi dinar opposite just rumors

Zora / Duraid Salman: Parliamentary Finance Committee has ruled out the possibility for the collapse of the Iraqi national currency against the backdrop of the financial crisis that beset the country, and described the news you are talking about as “rumors” promoted by some currency traders in order to achieve an illegal advantage, as he emphasized that oil imports enough yet to pay salaries Mozvin.oukal Committee member Masood Haider Rustam told the “Zora”, yesterday: news that talk about for the collapse of the Iraqi national currency due to the financial crisis, are just “concerns incorrect and untrue,” attributing the cause to that of the Iraqi dinar strong enough to withstand .

Rustam said: that the amount of the Iraqi dinar circulating in the market currently estimated at about 40 trillion dinars, and Iraq has a financial reserve of hard currency is estimated at 60 billion dollars, that is as much as 150% of the Iraqi currency…

Mnt Goat – There is nothing in the grey side or mysterious about why they are stalling the change over of the currency…they had postponed the currency reforms due to three reasons:  1) money laundering and bad banking practice.  2) wide spread corruption.  3) security reasons.  Nothing grey or mysterious about it…So Iraq must first make the necessary changes. The reforms and the laws needed to back them up and implement them are needed first. It’s not all about the RV.  The RV is simply a by-product of the process of bringing the country of Iraq online with the international community and do it such a way as to created stability and progress in their country and in the region.

Bluedog – SECURITY HAS BEEN SET FORTH IN IRAQ ALONG WITH THE IMF…THEY JUST WANT THE CBI TO BE SECURE AND TRUST WORTHY AS IT HAS BEEN A DEN OF THIEVES SINCE SHABIBI LEFT.   WHERE IS THAT NATIONAL GUARD LAW HMMMMM WAITING FOR FUNDING AS I TOLD YOU…WHEN YOU SEE THAT PASSED THEN YOUR GOLDEN…ALL IMO.  OH…THE CBI…GIVE THAT SOME ROOM TO BE CORRECTED THEN YOU WILL SEE A CHANGE IN PLANS.   [post 2 of 2]
______________________________________________________________

tman23 – Word was 9/8 there was a change coming to the CBI… 9/8 was to be a big day for Parliament and Ministers… what happened on 9/8…A deputy minister of the judical was kidnapped…his body guards were released which is strange… So Abadi cancels meetings and holds special meeting late night… Then Abadi goes to appear in front of Parliament Thursday for a speech…gets to the doors and turns around as an emergency situation came up…Then the CBI news of troop takeover… BUT…similar events had happened in the past only different scenarios…meaning when they get close to changing something, somebody starts a fire in the hallway.

Bloomberg: Central Bank sees limited risk of devaluation

Tomorrow/Baghdad: the Governor of the Central Bank, Mohsen Al-allaq, said Iraq has enough foreign reserves to maintain the economic status, but has not ruled out devaluation of the dinar to support affected government revenues due to falling oil prices and the cost of war against daash…

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.

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.

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 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]

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…

Thanks to Dinar Recaps for posting Round Table w/BGG

BGG: I have some commentary “in review” of yesterday…

BGG: Maybe I should have been a little more “tender” with my words. I used the word “RV” apparently currencies don’t do that (otherwise I’m an idiot – according to some commenters). I say… SEMANTICS

BGG: I care very little what terminology gets used. I care about getting things started OFF!!

BGG: Whatever the number – or the term – or what the “title page” looks like – J I’m just looking for THE JUMPING OFF POINT.

BGG: because once it gets going (again) their market will take care of the rest.

Aggiedad77 – …Parliament tomorrow…voting on not one but two important laws…Investment Law AND the Anti-Money Laundering Law...stellar on their part if they pull it off…then the cherry on top of this ice cream soda is the presence of PM Abadi in Parliament.  A reschedule of his cancelled visit from last Thursday that was postponed as he put one foot inside the Parliament then had to leave for “emergency reasons”…Will he be handing out pink slips to Parliament members who have over stayed their welcome by not showing up for the dance each week…or is he going to roll those corrupt heads out of Parliament.  Or maybe just tell them we are transitioning to a democratic process and as a result your services will no longer be needed in their current capacity but if you are an honest bloke we might have room for you in our new Congress…who knows…maybe he just wants to visit.
______________________________________________________________


______________________________________________________________

Tlar – …the CBI admitted in an article that they had planned to implement but postponed deleting the zeros four times in the last four years.  Maliki had put up so many obstacles and roadblocks culminating in an  arrest warrant on Shabibi.  Ultimately while PM Maliki did arrest a lot of the top guys running the CBI including Saleh, Shabibi’s right hand man.  Abadi exonerated Saleh and made him his personal economic adviser.  So Abadi is doing all the right things but because Maliki is trying to thwart his every move and kill the reforms, the going is slow.  Abadi will get the reforms done and will clean  the government of all the corrupt officials as long as he is not killed.  We will eventually see our RV that should have happened as far back as 2010.  Iraq has no choice if they are to ever open their economy which they desperately need to do.  If Abadi can get the requirements of the IMF and the WB done by October there is still a possibility we could see it then but that’s a tall order.  I think it will more than likely be January.   [post 3 of 3]
______________________________________________________________

Tlar – He is also trying to get rid of the head of the Judiciary, Maliki’s guy and has intentions to replace the head of the CBI.  He wants all qualified technocrats running all positions in government and has stated publicly that he will give the jobs to the most qualified people paying no attention to secular quotas.  The reforms are meant to get rid of corruption in Government and to punish corrupt officials that have been stealing the society blind for the last 8 years under Maliki.  The reforms are also intended to recoup the stolen funds and right the wrongs under Maliki.  This includes most of the politicians over there.  The people in Iraq are solidly behind him and are demonstrating in the streets supporting his reforms.  My only fear is as they start to prosecute the bad guys, they will try to assassinate Abadi, but Abadi has stated publicly that he will see the reforms through even if it costs him his life which to me smells of his getting death threats.  Prosecutions and arrests are already being made.  Over 300 people including politicians are no longer allowed to leave the country.  Arrest warrants are being issued to round up the corrupt.  On a good note…   [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

Stryker – Today Abadi’s Cabinet Approves Maliki’s Exit and the withdrawal of Maliki’s Governments Laws! Vice-President Maliki is History.
______________________________________________________________

Tlar – I am afraid that the dinar will not happen this year.  October has a chance but I am thinking January 2016 is most likely more realistic.  Abadi, the prime minister is in the process of cleaning house of all the corrupt politicians that Maliki had put in place.  Maliki himself will most likely be on trial soon as they are preparing charges against him.  But this is Iraq and anything can happen. The IMF and WB both have put conditions on Iraq that they must clean house and get rid of corruption and pass the money laundering law by October 1st.  Its an uphill battle but all the religious guys including Hakin, Sadr and al-Sistani are behind Abaidi and his reforms.  Parliament voted unanimously to support a list of things in support of Abadi and his reforms going so far as giving him the power to eliminate the parliament itself and start over.  Abadi has relieved the three presidencies abolishing them altogether.  Allawi, Maliki and Najaifi are all supposedly out of a job and are no longer considered a part of the government.  All three have refused to go away so that will be another fight for Abadi.  [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]

BGG ~ I don’t agree – so posting this isn’t meant to imply some kind of endorsement of this point of view…

______________________________________________________________

BGG – [do you think the WB will really blacklist Iraq if they do not get everything done by the 1st…or is that just a loud threat?]   I think they would – but I also think Iraq will get the AML Law passed (or close) before then…and I suspect as long as the vote is taken – (or some other serious effort) they will be fine…obviously, it’s not just the Law they want – they want it enforced. NO MONEY LAUNDERING…so the point is – it’s not just the Law – it’s Maliki they want (and everyone else it seems)…

Millionday – Article quote:  “And witnessed the Investment Law No. (31) for the year 2006 to make some amendments to paragraphs and materials, which is likely to approve the next two days…”  THIS IS THE ANNOUNCEMENT OF PLANS TO HAVE THE INVESTMENT LAW ACTIVE.  THE ANNOUNCEMENT IS FOR THIS TO BE DONE TODAY [MONDAY] OR TOMORROW.   THEY ARE EXPECTING THE NEW LAW TO ATTRACT INVESTMENT BUT ARE RELIANT ON THE CONDITIONS TO CHANGE…IT IS APPARENT THAT THE LAWS ARE EXPECTED TO BE COMPETITIVE WITH OTHER INTERNATIONAL INVESTMENT LAWS — THIS SHOWS THE GOAL IS TO GO GLOBAL AND THE LAW IS TO BE DONE WITHIN DAYS.

Mnt Goat – They also told us it would be paid out on the new “National” card and not their current Q –Card of SMART card.  We know they plan to combine the two cards into one card…I have to tell you there were still hundreds of thousands of citizens who did not receive there cards… They are preparing to pay out on HCL oil revenues. Yes – once again this is their intention. They MUST distribute part of this oil revenue to the people as in the HCL law. The HCL is not complete without these ongoing rolling payments to the citizens.  This must be done prior to any RV.   This is why these cards are so important. This means they are getting serious about it once again. When they begin using these new National cards they want the ability to make these payments to be an international usage.   [post 2 of 2]

Mnt Goat – …the recent blocking of the internet in Iraq has nothing…to do with the preparation for the RV.  By blocking the internet Abadi has also blocked a strategic means of ISIS and DAASH communications.  Another rumor to I must also discount today is about the reports that conquerable by military forces by American or Iraqi, that stormed the CBI and confiscated documents going back to 2003.  The next piece of juicy news is about the National Unified cards. We all know, as it has been confirmed, the Iraqi citizens currently have a Q- card (or SMART card)…It is NOT yet fully international until the currency is turned on in the international exchanges. In April of this year the told us they wanted to begin payout to the citizens of the oil revenues.

Parliamentary Finance: strong and modern Iraqi dinar opposite just rumors

Zora / Duraid Salman: Parliamentary Finance Committee has ruled out the possibility for the collapse of the Iraqi national currency against the backdrop of the financial crisis that beset the country, and described the news you are talking about as “rumors” promoted by some currency traders in order to achieve an illegal advantage, as he emphasized that oil imports enough yet to pay salaries Mozvin.oukal Committee member Masood Haider Rustam told the “Zora”, yesterday: news that talk about for the collapse of the Iraqi national currency due to the financial crisis, are just “concerns incorrect and untrue,” attributing the cause to that of the Iraqi dinar strong enough to withstand .

Rustam said: that the amount of the Iraqi dinar circulating in the market currently estimated at about 40 trillion dinars, and Iraq has a financial reserve of hard currency is estimated at 60 billion dollars, that is as much as 150% of the Iraqi currency…

Mnt Goat – There is nothing in the grey side or mysterious about why they are stalling the change over of the currency…they had postponed the currency reforms due to three reasons:  1) money laundering and bad banking practice.  2) wide spread corruption.  3) security reasons.  Nothing grey or mysterious about it…So Iraq must first make the necessary changes. The reforms and the laws needed to back them up and implement them are needed first. It’s not all about the RV.  The RV is simply a by-product of the process of bringing the country of Iraq online with the international community and do it such a way as to created stability and progress in their country and in the region.

Bloomberg: Central Bank sees limited risk of devaluation

Tomorrow/Baghdad: the Governor of the Central Bank, Mohsen Al-allaq, said Iraq has enough foreign reserves to maintain the economic status, but has not ruled out devaluation of the dinar to support affected government revenues due to falling oil prices and the cost of war against daash…

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.

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]

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…

With both Sistani & Sadr addressing Turkish hostage issue, seems fair to assume captors are indeed Shia. But also highly marginal ones.

Thanks to Dinar Recaps for posting Round Table w/BGG

BGG: I have some commentary “in review” of yesterday…

BGG: Maybe I should have been a little more “tender” with my words. I used the word “RV” apparently currencies don’t do that (otherwise I’m an idiot – according to some commenters). I say… SEMANTICS

BGG: I care very little what terminology gets used. I care about getting things started OFF!!

BGG: Whatever the number – or the term – or what the “title page” looks like – J I’m just looking for THE JUMPING OFF POINT.

BGG: because once it gets going (again) their market will take care of the rest.

WELCOME TO ROUND TABLE CHAT w/BGG

Thanks to Dinar Recaps for posting Round Table w/BGG

BGG: I have some commentary “in review” of yesterday…

BGG: Maybe I should have been a little more “tender” with my words. I used the word “RV” apparently currencies don’t do that (otherwise I’m an idiot – according to some commenters). I say… SEMANTICS

BGG: I care very little what terminology gets used. I care about getting things started OFF!!

BGG: Whatever the number – or the term – or what the “title page” looks like – J I’m just looking for THE JUMPING OFF POINT.

BGG: because once it gets going (again) their market will take care of the rest.

Estimate the shadow price of foreign currency:…

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.

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”.

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

NB-145842-635774768685479716AAlsumaria 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.

BGG – I have some commentary “in review” of yesterday…Maybe I should have been a little more “tender” with my words. I used the word “RV” apparently currencies don’t do that… I say…SEMANTICS.  I care very little what terminology gets used. I care about getting things started OFF!!   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.

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.  [post 2 of 2]

Mnt Goat – 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. I firmly expect Abadi to clean up the CBI and Dr Shabib to come back to an “official” capacity to head up the CBI once again before these projects kick off fully.   …it is very important and necessary for Iranian influence to be gone or greatly impaired in Iraqi politics and in the general influence of Iraq prior to any RV…the pressure is building now for this to happen too. Lots of pressure in all areas of getting rid of Iranian influence in Iraq...   [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Qassem Soleimani has many nicknames, generally containing one or both of the words “shadow” or “dark.” However, the commander of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps’ Quds Force has been operating in the light since the devastating advance of the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham (ISIS) began in the summer of 2014, but a year later is seeing him begin to wear out his welcome with Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi…

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.  [post 2 of 2]

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]

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.

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…

Backdoc – TODAY ON BLOOMBERG I HEARD THAT MITCH McCONNELL, SENATE MAJORITY LEADER, SAID THAT THEY MAY TAKE ANOTHER VOTE IN A WEEK OR SO TO MAKE SURE THAT NOBODY HAS CHANGED THEIR MIND! MMMM…NOW THAT’S INTERESTING. WHY WOULD HE DO THAT?  HE ALSO SAID IF THERE WERE NO CHANGES ON THE VOTE THEY MAY ACTIVATE THE SANCTION RELEASE PROCESS ON GUESS WHAT DAY?  NO SURPRISE TO ME… OCTOBER 8TH!! A NEW BEGINNING AGAIN? MY NOSE IS TRACKING IRAN! IT’S ALL ABOUT THE DEAL!  I SMELL A RELEASE OF MANY ASSET BACKED CURRENCIES IN THE VERY NEAR FUTURE! JUST LIKE THEY SAY IN IRAQ… ALL IN ONE BASKET!   [post 2 of 2]

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.

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”.

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

NB-145842-635774768685479716AAlsumaria 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.

Martha – 9/15 is the meeting of the UN General assembly and there will be several MAJOR announcements…it is also the release of the UN Operational rates and I hope this time we are finally on point with this one or else we may have to wait till end of month.  Iraq is ready and has been. She was prepared for the whole month of September to RV on a Tues-Thurs format… but there are those thought that there would be no rate change until DEC 31,2015 – NEW YEARS (hint hint).  Keep the faith for WE are almost there.

BGG – I have some commentary “in review” of yesterday…Maybe I should have been a little more “tender” with my words. I used the word “RV” apparently currencies don’t do that… I say…SEMANTICS.  I care very little what terminology gets used. I care about getting things started OFF!!   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.

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.  [post 2 of 2]
______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat – 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. I firmly expect Abadi to clean up the CBI and Dr Shabib to come back to an “official” capacity to head up the CBI once again before these projects kick off fully.   …it is very important and necessary for Iranian influence to be gone or greatly impaired in Iraqi politics and in the general influence of Iraq prior to any RV…the pressure is building now for this to happen too. Lots of pressure in all areas of getting rid of Iranian influence in Iraq...   [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Qassem Soleimani has many nicknames, generally containing one or both of the words “shadow” or “dark.” However, the commander of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps’ Quds Force has been operating in the light since the devastating advance of the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham (ISIS) began in the summer of 2014, but a year later is seeing him begin to wear out his welcome with Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi…

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.  [post 2 of 2]

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]

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.

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.

Jubouri: Parliament is keen to follow up the Iraqi government reforms

http://www.dinarupdates.com/showthread.php?19833-Jubouri-Parliament-is-keen-to-follow-up-the-Iraqi-government-reforms&p=130295&viewfull=1#post130295 …

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”.

Abadi: reforms included actors close to me and the Council of Ministers

NB-145842-635774768685479716AAlsumaria 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.

wmawhite – Iraq will be selling what is called Euro Bonds…those are bonds in another country’s currency different from the seller of the bonds.   …bonds are not the indicator we are looking for.  If I sell you a bonds that states you will receive at maturity $1 million plus 6% interest…do you care what the exchange rate is? NO.
______________________________________________________________

Martha – 9/15 is the meeting of the UN General assembly and there will be several MAJOR announcements…it is also the release of the UN Operational rates and I hope this time we are finally on point with this one or else we may have to wait till end of month.  Iraq is ready and has been. She was prepared for the whole month of September to RV on a Tues-Thurs format… but there are those thought that there would be no rate change until DEC 31,2015 – NEW YEARS (hint hint).  Keep the faith for WE are almost there.
______________________________________________________________

BGG – I have some commentary “in review” of yesterday…Maybe I should have been a little more “tender” with my words. I used the word “RV” apparently currencies don’t do that… I say…SEMANTICS.  I care very little what terminology gets used. I care about getting things started OFF!!   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.

The Exchange Rate of Foreign Currency in Economic Feasibility Studies 

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.

Estimate the shadow price of foreign currency:…

3.      Estimate the amended exchange rate of the Iraqi dinar to be used in technical and economical feasibility studies and for (1.134) dollar per dinar. This price should be approved for 3 years until re-appreciation by the competent authorities.

My Ladies – I KNOW THE DAY WILL COME WHEN THE DINAR RE PRICES… I DON’T KNOW WHEN THAT DAY IS THE CRYSTAL BALL IS STILL FOGGY.  BASED ON WHAT’S HAPPENING IN THE WORLD CAN THIS BE A SOONER ARRIVAL FOR US?  SURE…WHY NOT?  BUT WHEN THEY ANNOUNCE THINGS AND BLOOMBERG AND RUETERS REPORTS THEM THINGS SUCH AS INTERNATIONAL BONDS.  THESE THINGS LEAD US TO THE NECESSITY FOR AN INTERNATIONAL STATUS AND PERHAPS A VALUE CHANGE.   BUT THEN THEY COME IN 30 DAYS LATER AND SAY UMMM OH YEA BY THE WAY…  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

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.  [post 2 of 2]
______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat – 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. I firmly expect Abadi to clean up the CBI and Dr Shabib to come back to an “official” capacity to head up the CBI once again before these projects kick off fully.   …it is very important and necessary for Iranian influence to be gone or greatly impaired in Iraqi politics and in the general influence of Iraq prior to any RV…the pressure is building now for this to happen too. Lots of pressure in all areas of getting rid of Iranian influence in Iraq...   [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Iraq’s prime minister is turning against Iran

qassem-soleimaniA

RGC Quds Force chief Qassem Soleimani said the world will be surprised by upcoming events in Syria.

Qassem Soleimani has many nicknames, generally containing one or both of the words “shadow” or “dark.” However, the commander of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps’ Quds Force has been operating in the light since the devastating advance of the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham (ISIS) began in the summer of 2014, but a year later is seeing him begin to wear out his welcome with Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi…

Millionday – [Does a member of parliament carry much weight on monetary policy?]   PARLIAMENT DOES HAVE WEIGHT ON POLICY — BECAUSE…EVEN THOUGH CENTRAL BANK IS INDEPENDENT — THEY ARE IN MONEY ACCOUNTABILITY — NOT ALL ECONOMIC MATTERS.  THEY ARE A WORKING TEAM FOR THE COUNTRY — CENTRAL BANK IS ACCOUNTABLE FOR DISTRIBUTION AND APPLICATION OF RATES INFO ETC — ALL ECONOMIC POLICIES WORK TOGETHER.
______________________________________________________________

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.  [post 2 of 2]
______________________________________________________________

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: I have some commentary “in review” of yesterday…

BGG: I care very little what terminology gets used. I care about getting things started OFF!!

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.

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.

Administrator Bob – [we are in for still a long wait. I believe how long it takes is relative to the activation and success of a market economy. The new CBI loan program appears to be at least a very good start in the right direction…Now if parliament would pass those dang laws.

The Exchange Rate of Foreign Currency in Economic Feasibility Studies 

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.

Estimate the shadow price of foreign currency:…

3.      Estimate the amended exchange rate of the Iraqi dinar to be used in technical and economical feasibility studies and for (1.134) dollar per dinar. This price should be approved for 3 years until re-appreciation by the competent authorities.

wmawhite – Iraq will be selling what is called Euro Bonds…those are bonds in another country’s currency different from the seller of the bonds.   …bonds are not the indicator we are looking for.  If I sell you a bonds that states you will receive at maturity $1 million plus 6% interest…do you care what the exchange rate is? NO.

Martha – 9/15 is the meeting of the UN General assembly and there will be several MAJOR announcements…it is also the release of the UN Operational rates and I hope this time we are finally on point with this one or else we may have to wait till end of month.  Iraq is ready and has been. She was prepared for the whole month of September to RV on a Tues-Thurs format… but there are those thought that there would be no rate change until DEC 31,2015 – NEW YEARS (hint hint).  Keep the faith for WE are almost there.

BGG – I have some commentary “in review” of yesterday…Maybe I should have been a little more “tender” with my words. I used the word “RV” apparently currencies don’t do that… I say…SEMANTICS.  I care very little what terminology gets used. I care about getting things started OFF!!   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.

Iraq’s prime minister is turning against Iran

qassem-soleimaniA

RGC Quds Force chief Qassem Soleimani said the world will be surprised by upcoming events in Syria.

Qassem Soleimani has many nicknames, generally containing one or both of the words “shadow” or “dark.” However, the commander of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps’ Quds Force has been operating in the light since the devastating advance of the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham (ISIS) began in the summer of 2014, but a year later is seeing him begin to wear out his welcome with Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi…

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.  [post 2 of 2]
______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat – 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. I firmly expect Abadi to clean up the CBI and Dr Shabib to come back to an “official” capacity to head up the CBI once again before these projects kick off fully.   …it is very important and necessary for Iranian influence to be gone or greatly impaired in Iraqi politics and in the general influence of Iraq prior to any RV…the pressure is building now for this to happen too. 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.  [post 2 of 2]

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.

WELCOME TO ROUND TABLE CHAT w/BGG

Thanks to Dinar Recaps for posting Round Table w/BGG

BGG: I have some commentary “in review” of yesterday…

BGG: Maybe I should have been a little more “tender” with my words. I used the word “RV” apparently currencies don’t do that (otherwise I’m an idiot – according to some commenters). I say… SEMANTICS

BGG: I care very little what terminology gets used. I care about getting things started OFF!!

BGG: Whatever the number – or the term – or what the “title page” looks like – J I’m just looking for THE JUMPING OFF POINT.

BGG: because once it gets going (again) their market will take care of the rest.

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.

Sooooooo

Iran Has Controlled Iraq For Years. Now It May Be Pushed Out.

Iraq’s top ayatollah and its prime minister are subtly challenging widespread Iranian influence.


WASHINGTON — Iran has for years exerted tremendous influence over Iraq, turning it into essentially a Shiite-led client state under former Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki. But a new protest movement in the country’s Shiite-dominated south is a key sign that Tehran’s power is waning, as Grand Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani and Maliki’s U.S.-backed successor, Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi, make forceful moves to reclaim Iraqi independence…

Calls for the activation of the central government’s program in support of the private sector

Aggiedad77 – Today we see the Iraqi’s getting set to “promote” bond sales…international bonds…will they be in USD or Euros…personally at this point I don’t care…I’m more interested in when they will try and sell them…this is a closely guarded secret for some reason.

tlm724 – Article:  “The central bank agrees to rehabilitate the Warka Bank” Quote: “the Board of the Central Bank Board of Directors approved, today, the rehabilitation of the Warka Bank.” this is good news for sure, Warka has been teetering on the fence of failure for years now!  at least the CBI is stepping up…at this point in the economic plan Iraq can’t really afford to lose any banks

Breitling – [Do you have a feeling for the timing for a significant change of the dinar value?  It’s been relatively the same for a very long time.]  There is a couple different ways you have to look at it.  You got out of the US dollar and into the Iraqi dinar.   People don’t want to hear this…they want to hear when it’s going to revalue.  But this is a game…  If I was going to go into an investment and there was NOT going to be a huge revaluation in the currency, I would still look at the dinar.   Because knowing the value of the US dollar has to go down…how much will the dinar go up?  It’s a 27% return so far.   You just beat the S & P 500.  It’s pretty remarkable.  [Post 1 of 2…stay tuned for the rest of the story]

The GCC is the Gulf Cooperation Council. It is a political and economic alliance of six Middle Eastern countries—Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Bahrain,Oman and now Iraq. Arguably the most important article of the GCC charter is Article 4, which states that the alliance was formed to strengthen relations among its member countries and to promote cooperation among the countries’ citizens. The GCC also has a defense planning council that coordinates military cooperation between member countries.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Breitling – The competition for the dinar is the US dollar and they are selling the oil in US dollars so they are not worried too much about the market rate for the dinar because it’s artificially manipulated anyway…It [the dinar] used to be at a $3 rate and it was at a billion notes.  And they printed a new currency [The notes you and I have now] and they printed a ton of them in two different stages and the governor of the CBI said ‘we are going to get the value of this currency back up but we are going to reduce the note count in the meantime.’  There was always the threat of a LOP.  But they would not have gotten rid of ONE note off the market…they just would have said, ‘Hey, let’s pretend those zeros are not on it and we’ll go from there.’  They didn’t do that.   They went the complete opposite direction…they started getting rid of the physical notes… [Post 2 of 2]

Yes you do have to read between the lines a bit, but when you do, my excitement level increases.

Adminstrator Bob – Article quote:  “The central bank plans to put up a large gold bullion weights to sell to citizens”  [More reserves Gone!]  Reserves are a combination of foreign currency and precious metals (mainly gold). Central banks adjust these reserves often for profit.  This has little if any effect on the CBI overall reserves.

BGG – WB/IMF says OCT 1st (as a deadline for the AML Law ) and I added the Investment Law would go a long ways towards Abadi’s credibility…I really think the AML Law is pointed directly at Maliki and his bunch…which sounds like they will be doing sometime next week. [The National guard Law is crucial as well.]  it is – balances and puts power under the direction of Baghdad.  [AML Law = Anti-Money Laundering Law]

Adam Montana – [ I see…different things needing to happen before there can be an RV. I thought that the RV was the sole responsibility of the CBI and not the government. I think that now would be a good time to clarify this again, just to keep us all on the same page.]  Here’s a quick…recap:  1. The GOI can’t force the CBI to honor a higher rate. It simply wouldn’t work.  2. Equally important – the CBI doesn’t need the support of the GOI to successfully raise the value of the dinar, but they also don’t want opposition from the GOI.  With those things in mind, we can know that the CBI makes the final call, but both entities will work together to ensure the success.
______________________________________________________________

BGG – Quite honestly folks – the news is a real mixed bag. Some good – some not so good…and some downright confusing… personally – I think it’s all about these reforms right now.   I sure hope Abadi hasn’t bitten off more than he can chew.

Breitling – You will never find a country putting out their daily note count.  That is a well kept secret.  Iraq has put out 3 reports in the Iraqi Journal.  the first report was 9 Billion to 6 billion [Note count] then 6 billion to 4 billion…but their is no daily count…it simply does not work that way.

Frank26 – There’s a committee that’s a delegation coming from Iraq to the US – they’re already here – on the 11th there will be more. They’re here for the bonds…After this meeting in the US, they’ll move to the UK…at this meeting on the 11th, they’ll also talk about DAASH…   [IMO we should keep our eyes peeled on next week’s Bond meetings in USA and BRITIAN.]  Oh YES…It’s very important. Don’t know another way to express it’s importance!  DRS [DR. SHABIBI] WILL BE THERE!

rcookie: Here is a link for the IMF Report for the G20 Summit …GLOBAL PROSPECTS AND POLICY CHALLENGES G-20 Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors Meeting September 4–5, 2015Ankara, Turkey….Looks like some of the verbiage and outline of necessary structural reforms being mandated toward Iraq are right out of this playbook…and the obvious backdrop to the S & P credit rating..AWESOME READ!!

My Ladies – ADJUSTING ONES CURRENCY IS VERY PAINFUL FOR THE ECONOMY. MAKE NO MISTAKE…WHEN IRAQ COMES OFF THIS PROGRAM RATE AND HAS REAL MONEY WITH REAL VALUE IT WILL TOTALLY SUCK FOR THEM FOR A FEW YEARS.  IT WILL BE PAINFUL, MANAGING THE MARKET ECONOMY IS NO JOKE.  SOME LESS INFORMED FOLKS THINK OH WELL THEY ARE GOING TO GET 2+ OR 3+ DINAR TO THE DOLLAR.  REALLY? I MEAN REALLY?  THE PEOPLE INSIDE IRAQ ARE NOT GOING TO GET ANY SUCH THING.  THE 2+ AND THE 3+ IS FOR ALL THE FOLKS ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE BORDER!

BGG ~ There is absolutely no truth to – or evidence there will be an “in-country” and “out-of-country” rate. This is a silly assertion!!

Adam Montana – [I had read some weeks back how al-Abadi was cleaning house, with the result that a number of people were out of a job.  Have you heard or read what progress is being made on filling those positions, hopefully with people who have integrity.  Are there positions in the GOI that will need to be filled before the RV?]   If I’m thinking of the same thing you are, Abadi didn’t actually plan on “re-filling” those positions – they were simply being eliminated. I like that plan, because too many monkeys on the same tree is just as bad as too many chefs in the same kitchen.  What I said sometime ago about the GOI being important was that we needed a significant change and improvement in the GOI, and I believe that requirement has been “filled” to a very reasonably satisfactory level.

Breitling – ...right now if you look how much dinar they have taken off the market and the way the economy is growing based on the past and how they have framed up the currency based on market rates, you’re looking at between .42 and .52 cents right now.  That is where it should be if they pulled the trigger today.  Remember, that’s manipulated.  That’s because of the amount of notes they have on the market.  I’m not saying they are going to come out at the range…that’s what we calculated.  that’s the value that we are looking at.  We are all at the mercy of the CBI.  We have to wait to see what’s going on.  [Post 2 of 2 ]

What is he going to do when he comes back? He’s going to fix the mess in the CBI.  Dr. S and A [Abadi] want the MR to flow but it has to be done correctly.  Dr. Shabibi said when he left – GIVE ME STABILITY. In order to see that date you want so badly.   The MR [Monetary Reform] is no where complete.  No dates. We’re not ready though a lot of the things are done. The MR is active, moving, constructive, amazing…but he will come back to clean up the mess.

Breitling – They are selling the bonds for US dollars and they are going to put them in their foreign currency reserve.  They are not using the bonds to take out dinar they are using the bond to take out dollars…those US dollars will not be in the Iraqi economy to compete against the dinar…  I don’t see anything in Iraq pushing or delaying the value of the dinar going up…they are going to float it up little bit by little bit…it’s a 2 year time frame.

Estimate the shadow price of foreign currency:…

Heavenly Father, Thank You for Your Grace and Mercy! Thank You for the labor and heritage You have given to us to enjoy! In Jesus Name, Amen.

wmawhite – Iraq will be selling what is called Euro Bonds…those are bonds in another country’s currency different from the seller of the bonds.   …bonds are not the indicator we are looking for.  If I sell you a bonds that states you will receive at maturity $1 million plus 6% interest…do you care what the exchange rate is? NO.

Martha – 9/15 is the meeting of the UN General assembly and there will be several MAJOR announcements…it is also the release of the UN Operational rates and I hope this time we are finally on point with this one or else we may have to wait till end of month.  Iraq is ready and has been. She was prepared for the whole month of September to RV on a Tues-Thurs format… but there are those thought that there would be no rate change until DEC 31,2015 – NEW YEARS (hint hint).  Keep the faith for WE are almost there.

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.  [post 2 of 2]

Mnt Goat – 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. I firmly expect Abadi to clean up the CBI and Dr Shabib to come back to an “official” capacity to head up the CBI once again before these projects kick off fully.   …it is very important and necessary for Iranian influence to be gone or greatly impaired in Iraqi politics and in the general influence of Iraq prior to any RV…the pressure is building now for this to happen too. 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.  [post 2 of 2]

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.

______________________________________________________________

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.

Iran Has Controlled Iraq For Years. Now It May Be Pushed Out.

Iraq’s top ayatollah and its prime minister are subtly challenging widespread Iranian influence.


WASHINGTON — Iran has for years exerted tremendous influence over Iraq, turning it into essentially a Shiite-led client state under former Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki. But a new protest movement in the country’s Shiite-dominated south is a key sign that Tehran’s power is waning, as Grand Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani and Maliki’s U.S.-backed successor, Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi, make forceful moves to reclaim Iraqi independence…

Breitling – [Do you have a feeling for the timing for a significant change of the dinar value?  It’s been relatively the same for a very long time.]  There is a couple different ways you have to look at it.  You got out of the US dollar and into the Iraqi dinar.   People don’t want to hear this…they want to hear when it’s going to revalue.  But this is a game…  If I was going to go into an investment and there was NOT going to be a huge revaluation in the currency, I would still look at the dinar.   Because knowing the value of the US dollar has to go down…how much will the dinar go up?  It’s a 27% return so far.   You just beat the S & P 500.  It’s pretty remarkable.  [Post 1 of 2…stay tuned for the rest of the story]

This is such HUGE news as Saudi Arabia and other member are willing to help Iraq through this economic crisis by cutting oil production. They are doing this to raise oil prices, something which we know Iraq needs desperately to stabilize its economy and help in it’s stabilization of the Iraq dinar (thus the RV later).  This is yet another tool being used to assure Iraq WILL SURVIVE AND WILL SUCCEED. How can you not succeed in the long term when so many countries are behind you?  [post 2 of 2]

Mnt Goat – ECONOMIC SPECIALIST: OPEC WILL CUT ITS PRODUCTION RATES TO SAVE THE ECONOMY OF IRAQ”  I simply luv this article …  It is telling us so much about the OPEC and the GCC. The GCC is the Gulf Cooperation Council. It is a political and economic alliance of six Middle Eastern countries—Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Bahrain,Oman and now Iraq. Arguably the most important article of the GCC charter is Article 4, which states that the alliance was formed to strengthen relations among its member countries and to promote cooperation among the countries’ citizens. The GCC also has a defense planning council that coordinates military cooperation between member countries.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

BGG – Several major laws on deck for next week… Anti-Money Laundering Law… Investment Law…and National Guard Law – (plenty of ink on all three)…The bonds are a huge failure so far. They got a not so great credit rating… again. [Will a currency rate increase make bonds successful IYO.]   not really – (it might help) … but the point is – the bonds wouldn’t produce the dough they need. A currency rate would…at least bridge their short term budget issues…   [Do you think Abadi is coming here to promote the bonds this week?]  I don’t – bonds (on their best day) won’t save them…it’s something else…

firefly – Breaking News CBI Governor assures agreeing with Banks Union on unified exchange rates…Published: 2015/6/20”    WOW!  [that was in june?]  YES!!!  [so we have a rate, we just don’t know what it is?]  Appears so.  Folks, a monetary reform doesn’t happen with a push of a button…It’s a process.  They got the Green light on March 3rd. You folks really think Iraq shredded it?  …study your history, study your economics, Follow the CBI.  [so is there a way M (Maliki) can stop this all from happening?]  NO!  How can he?   You cannot stop a monetary reform…it is a way of life!  Problem being …EVERYBODY WANTS A DATE!  [But…On the news they are still talking about ISIS and oil prices dropping.]  Yes, Iraq has to move and fast!
______________________________________________________________

Breitling – The competition for the dinar is the US dollar and they are selling the oil in US dollars so they are not worried too much about the market rate for the dinar because it’s artificially manipulated anyway…It [the dinar] used to be at a $3 rate and it was at a billion notes.  And they printed a new currency [The notes you and I have now] and they printed a ton of them in two different stages and the governor of the CBI said ‘we are going to get the value of this currency back up but we are going to reduce the note count in the meantime.’  There was always the threat of a LOP.  But they would not have gotten rid of ONE note off the market…they just would have said, ‘Hey, let’s pretend those zeros are not on it and we’ll go from there.’  They didn’t do that.   They went the complete opposite direction…they started getting rid of the physical notes… [Post 2 of 2]

Breitling – Everybody is in an uproar about the dinar being devalued [article].  …I’ve been telling you the dinar will not devalue.  They [Bloomberg] are trying to pretend they know the market rate of the dinar.  What they don’t understand is that it’s a completely manipulated currency right now and it’s manipulated by the amount of notes they have out there.  Just like any other currency out there.   The liquidity is shoring up…it went from 9 billion to 4 billion notes so it is very strange that these guys [Bloomberg] would even come up with an article like that.  Let’s say, if the value of the dinar should go down as the price of oil has gone down.  To keep the value up they’d have to get more dinar out of the market right?  And guess what?  At the end of the article it says by the CBI…the reserves won’t be depleted and the dinar will not be devalued…so why even print the article? [Post 1 of 2]

Yes you do have to read between the lines a bit, but when you do, my excitement level increases.

Chattels – Article quote:   “Wednesday, Parliament’s intention to pass the investment Pencchth amended law in the parliament session next Monday to achieve the full support of the Iraqi economy.”  Even if it passes there is the implementation issue with all things in Iraq.  My belief is that if there was only a first reading then there must be a second and then a four day scheduling wait, so next week may be an ” ambitious” timeline under the best of circumstances.

Adminstrator Bob – Article quote:  “The central bank plans to put up a large gold bullion weights to sell to citizens”  [More reserves Gone!]  Reserves are a combination of foreign currency and precious metals (mainly gold). Central banks adjust these reserves often for profit.  This has little if any effect on the CBI overall reserves.

BGG – WB/IMF says OCT 1st (as a deadline for the AML Law ) and I added the Investment Law would go a long ways towards Abadi’s credibility…I really think the AML Law is pointed directly at Maliki and his bunch…which sounds like they will be doing sometime next week. [The National guard Law is crucial as well.]  it is – balances and puts power under the direction of Baghdad.  [AML Law = Anti-Money Laundering Law]

Adam Montana – [ I see…different things needing to happen before there can be an RV. I thought that the RV was the sole responsibility of the CBI and not the government. I think that now would be a good time to clarify this again, just to keep us all on the same page.]  Here’s a quick…recap:  1. The GOI can’t force the CBI to honor a higher rate. It simply wouldn’t work.  2. Equally important – the CBI doesn’t need the support of the GOI to successfully raise the value of the dinar, but they also don’t want opposition from the GOI.  With those things in mind, we can know that the CBI makes the final call, but both entities will work together to ensure the success.
______________________________________________________________

BGG – Quite honestly folks – the news is a real mixed bag. Some good – some not so good…and some downright confusing… personally – I think it’s all about these reforms right now.   I sure hope Abadi hasn’t bitten off more than he can chew.

My Ladies – ADJUSTING ONES CURRENCY IS VERY PAINFUL FOR THE ECONOMY. MAKE NO MISTAKE…WHEN IRAQ COMES OFF THIS PROGRAM RATE AND HAS REAL MONEY WITH REAL VALUE IT WILL TOTALLY SUCK FOR THEM FOR A FEW YEARS.  IT WILL BE PAINFUL, MANAGING THE MARKET ECONOMY IS NO JOKE.  SOME LESS INFORMED FOLKS THINK OH WELL THEY ARE GOING TO GET 2+ OR 3+ DINAR TO THE DOLLAR.  REALLY? I MEAN REALLY?  THE PEOPLE INSIDE IRAQ ARE NOT GOING TO GET ANY SUCH THING.  THE 2+ AND THE 3+ IS FOR ALL THE FOLKS ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE BORDER!

BGG ~ There is absolutely no truth to – or evidence there will be an “in-country” and “out-of-country” rate. This is a silly assertion!!

Adam Montana – [I had read some weeks back how al-Abadi was cleaning house, with the result that a number of people were out of a job.  Have you heard or read what progress is being made on filling those positions, hopefully with people who have integrity.  Are there positions in the GOI that will need to be filled before the RV?]   If I’m thinking of the same thing you are, Abadi didn’t actually plan on “re-filling” those positions – they were simply being eliminated. I like that plan, because too many monkeys on the same tree is just as bad as too many chefs in the same kitchen.  What I said sometime ago about the GOI being important was that we needed a significant change and improvement in the GOI, and I believe that requirement has been “filled” to a very reasonably satisfactory level.

What is he going to do when he comes back? He’s going to fix the mess in the CBI.  Dr. S and A [Abadi] want the MR to flow but it has to be done correctly.  Dr. Shabibi said when he left – GIVE ME STABILITY. In order to see that date you want so badly.   The MR [Monetary Reform] is no where complete.  No dates. We’re not ready though a lot of the things are done. The MR is active, moving, constructive, amazing…but he will come back to clean up the mess.

Breitling – They are selling the bonds for US dollars and they are going to put them in their foreign currency reserve.  They are not using the bonds to take out dinar they are using the bond to take out dollars…those US dollars will not be in the Iraqi economy to compete against the dinar…  I don’t see anything in Iraq pushing or delaying the value of the dinar going up…they are going to float it up little bit by little bit…it’s a 2 year time frame.

BGG ~ I guess I should have said it like this on the call…

“…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…

Sooooooo

…as of today we have a member of the Parliamentary Economic committee calling for the RV…

as of TODAY!!

Will they?? who knows…

But someone who sits on the very committee Abadi used be the Chairman of is asking for the SAME THING YOU ARE!!

______________________________________________________________

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]

Iran Has Controlled Iraq For Years. Now It May Be Pushed Out.

Iraq’s top ayatollah and its prime minister are subtly challenging widespread Iranian influence.


WASHINGTON — Iran has for years exerted tremendous influence over Iraq, turning it into essentially a Shiite-led client state under former Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki. But a new protest movement in the country’s Shiite-dominated south is a key sign that Tehran’s power is waning, as Grand Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani and Maliki’s U.S.-backed successor, Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi, make forceful moves to reclaim Iraqi independence…

Calls for the activation of the central government’s program in support of the private sector

Aggiedad77 – Today we see the Iraqi’s getting set to “promote” bond sales…international bonds…will they be in USD or Euros…personally at this point I don’t care…I’m more interested in when they will try and sell them…this is a closely guarded secret for some reason.

tlm724 – Article:  “The central bank agrees to rehabilitate the Warka Bank” Quote: “the Board of the Central Bank Board of Directors approved, today, the rehabilitation of the Warka Bank.” this is good news for sure, Warka has been teetering on the fence of failure for years now!  at least the CBI is stepping up…at this point in the economic plan Iraq can’t really afford to lose any banks
______________________________________________________________

Breitling – [Do you have a feeling for the timing for a significant change of the dinar value?  It’s been relatively the same for a very long time.]  There is a couple different ways you have to look at it.  You got out of the US dollar and into the Iraqi dinar.   People don’t want to hear this…they want to hear when it’s going to revalue.  But this is a game…  If I was going to go into an investment and there was NOT going to be a huge revaluation in the currency, I would still look at the dinar.   Because knowing the value of the US dollar has to go down…how much will the dinar go up?  It’s a 27% return so far.   You just beat the S & P 500.  It’s pretty remarkable.  [Post 1 of 2…stay tuned for the rest of the story]

Mnt Goat – ECONOMIC SPECIALIST: OPEC WILL CUT ITS PRODUCTION RATES TO SAVE THE ECONOMY OF IRAQ”  I simply luv this article …  It is telling us so much about the OPEC and the GCC. The GCC is the Gulf Cooperation Council. It is a political and economic alliance of six Middle Eastern countries—Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Bahrain,Oman and now Iraq. Arguably the most important article of the GCC charter is Article 4, which states that the alliance was formed to strengthen relations among its member countries and to promote cooperation among the countries’ citizens. The GCC also has a defense planning council that coordinates military cooperation between member countries.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Breitling – The competition for the dinar is the US dollar and they are selling the oil in US dollars so they are not worried too much about the market rate for the dinar because it’s artificially manipulated anyway…It [the dinar] used to be at a $3 rate and it was at a billion notes.  And they printed a new currency [The notes you and I have now] and they printed a ton of them in two different stages and the governor of the CBI said ‘we are going to get the value of this currency back up but we are going to reduce the note count in the meantime.’  There was always the threat of a LOP.  But they would not have gotten rid of ONE note off the market…they just would have said, ‘Hey, let’s pretend those zeros are not on it and we’ll go from there.’  They didn’t do that.   They went the complete opposite direction…they started getting rid of the physical notes… [Post 2 of 2]

Yes you do have to read between the lines a bit, but when you do, my excitement level increases.

Chattels – Article quote:   “Wednesday, Parliament’s intention to pass the investment Pencchth amended law in the parliament session next Monday to achieve the full support of the Iraqi economy.”  Even if it passes there is the implementation issue with all things in Iraq.  My belief is that if there was only a first reading then there must be a second and then a four day scheduling wait, so next week may be an ” ambitious” timeline under the best of circumstances.

Adminstrator Bob – Article quote:  “The central bank plans to put up a large gold bullion weights to sell to citizens”  [More reserves Gone!]  Reserves are a combination of foreign currency and precious metals (mainly gold). Central banks adjust these reserves often for profit.  This has little if any effect on the CBI overall reserves.

BGG – WB/IMF says OCT 1st (as a deadline for the AML Law ) and I added the Investment Law would go a long ways towards Abadi’s credibility…I really think the AML Law is pointed directly at Maliki and his bunch…which sounds like they will be doing sometime next week. [The National guard Law is crucial as well.]  it is – balances and puts power under the direction of Baghdad.  [AML Law = Anti-Money Laundering Law]

Adam Montana – [ I see…different things needing to happen before there can be an RV. I thought that the RV was the sole responsibility of the CBI and not the government. I think that now would be a good time to clarify this again, just to keep us all on the same page.]  Here’s a quick…recap:  1. The GOI can’t force the CBI to honor a higher rate. It simply wouldn’t work.  2. Equally important – the CBI doesn’t need the support of the GOI to successfully raise the value of the dinar, but they also don’t want opposition from the GOI.  With those things in mind, we can know that the CBI makes the final call, but both entities will work together to ensure the success.
______________________________________________________________

BGG – Quite honestly folks – the news is a real mixed bag. Some good – some not so good…and some downright confusing… personally – I think it’s all about these reforms right now.   I sure hope Abadi hasn’t bitten off more than he can chew.

Breitling – You will never find a country putting out their daily note count.  That is a well kept secret.  Iraq has put out 3 reports in the Iraqi Journal.  the first report was 9 Billion to 6 billion [Note count] then 6 billion to 4 billion…but their is no daily count…it simply does not work that way.

My Ladies – ADJUSTING ONES CURRENCY IS VERY PAINFUL FOR THE ECONOMY. MAKE NO MISTAKE…WHEN IRAQ COMES OFF THIS PROGRAM RATE AND HAS REAL MONEY WITH REAL VALUE IT WILL TOTALLY SUCK FOR THEM FOR A FEW YEARS.  IT WILL BE PAINFUL, MANAGING THE MARKET ECONOMY IS NO JOKE.  SOME LESS INFORMED FOLKS THINK OH WELL THEY ARE GOING TO GET 2+ OR 3+ DINAR TO THE DOLLAR.  REALLY? I MEAN REALLY?  THE PEOPLE INSIDE IRAQ ARE NOT GOING TO GET ANY SUCH THING.  THE 2+ AND THE 3+ IS FOR ALL THE FOLKS ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE BORDER!

BGG ~ There is absolutely no truth to – or evidence there will be an “in-country” and “out-of-country” rate. This is a silly assertion!!

Adam Montana – [I had read some weeks back how al-Abadi was cleaning house, with the result that a number of people were out of a job.  Have you heard or read what progress is being made on filling those positions, hopefully with people who have integrity.  Are there positions in the GOI that will need to be filled before the RV?]   If I’m thinking of the same thing you are, Abadi didn’t actually plan on “re-filling” those positions – they were simply being eliminated. I like that plan, because too many monkeys on the same tree is just as bad as too many chefs in the same kitchen.  What I said sometime ago about the GOI being important was that we needed a significant change and improvement in the GOI, and I believe that requirement has been “filled” to a very reasonably satisfactory level.

Breitling – ...right now if you look how much dinar they have taken off the market and the way the economy is growing based on the past and how they have framed up the currency based on market rates, you’re looking at between .42 and .52 cents right now.  That is where it should be if they pulled the trigger today.  Remember, that’s manipulated.  That’s because of the amount of notes they have on the market.  I’m not saying they are going to come out at the range…that’s what we calculated.  that’s the value that we are looking at.  We are all at the mercy of the CBI.  We have to wait to see what’s going on.  [Post 2 of 2 ]

Frank26 – Article:  “Re-investigation in the case of Dr. Shabibi with the CBI.”   That’s false…nobody is investigating Dr. S…It’s the judges who are being investigated because they took a payola from Maliki who stole everything.   He’s coming back to the Central Bank of Iraq. What is he going to do when he comes back? He’s going to fix the mess in the CBI.  Dr. S and A [Abadi] want the MR to flow but it has to be done correctly.  Dr. Shabibi said when he left – GIVE ME STABILITY. In order to see that date you want so badly.   The MR [Monetary Reform] is no where complete.  No dates. We’re not ready though a lot of the things are done. The MR is active, moving, constructive, amazing…but he will come back to clean up the mess.

______________________________________________________________

Breitling – They are selling the bonds for US dollars and they are going to put them in their foreign currency reserve.  They are not using the bonds to take out dinar they are using the bond to take out dollars…those US dollars will not be in the Iraqi economy to compete against the dinar…  I don’t see anything in Iraq pushing or delaying the value of the dinar going up…they are going to float it up little bit by little bit…it’s a 2 year time frame. [Post 1 of 2]

It simply wouldn’t work.  2. Equally important – the CBI doesn’t need the support of the GOI to successfully raise the value of the dinar, but they also don’t want opposition from the GOI.  With those things in mind, we can know that the CBI makes the final call, but both entities will work together to ensure the success.

He’s going to fix the mess in the CBI.  Dr. S and A [Abadi] want the MR to flow but it has to be done correctly.  Dr. Shabibi said when he left – GIVE ME STABILITY.

Breitling – They are selling the bonds for US dollars and they are going to put them in their foreign currency reserve.  They are not using the bonds to take out dinar they are using the bond to take out dollars…those US dollars will not be in the Iraqi economy to compete against the dinar…  I don’t see anything in Iraq pushing or delaying the value of the dinar going up…they are going to float it up little bit by little bit…it’s a 2 year time frame.

Estimate the shadow price of foreign currency:…

Breitling – Everybody is in an uproar about the dinar being devalued [article].  …I’ve been telling you the dinar will not devalue.  They [Bloomberg] are trying to pretend they know the market rate of the dinar.  What they don’t understand is that it’s a completely manipulated currency right now and it’s manipulated by the amount of notes they have out there.  Just like any other currency out there.   The liquidity is shoring up…it went from 9 billion to 4 billion notes so it is very strange that these guys [Bloomberg] would even come up with an article like that.  Let’s say, if the value of the dinar should go down as the price of oil has gone down.  To keep the value up they’d have to get more dinar out of the market right?  And guess what?  At the end of the article it says by the CBI…the reserves won’t be depleted and the dinar will not be devalued…so why even print the article? [Post 1 of 2]

Breitling – They are selling the bonds for US dollars and they are going to put them in their foreign currency reserve.  They are not using the bonds to take out dinar they are using the bond to take out dollars…those US dollars will not be in the Iraqi economy to compete against the dinar…  I don’t see anything in Iraq pushing or delaying the value of the dinar going up…they are going to float it up little bit by little bit…it’s a 2 year time frame.

The Exchange Rate of Foreign Currency in Economic Feasibility Studies 

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.

Estimate the shadow price of foreign currency:…

3.      Estimate the amended exchange rate of the Iraqi dinar to be used in technical and economical feasibility studies and for (1.134) dollar per dinar. This price should be approved for 3 years until re-appreciation by the competent authorities.

BGG – WB/IMF says OCT 1st (as a deadline for the AML Law ) and I added the Investment Law would go a long ways towards Abadi’s credibility…I really think the AML Law is pointed directly at Maliki and his bunch…which sounds like they will be doing sometime next week. [The National guard Law is crucial as well.]  it is – balances and puts power under the direction of Baghdad.  [AML Law = Anti-Money Laundering Law]

Adam Montana – [ I see…different things needing to happen before there can be an RV. I thought that the RV was the sole responsibility of the CBI and not the government. I think that now would be a good time to clarify this again, just to keep us all on the same page.]  Here’s a quick…recap:  1. The GOI can’t force the CBI to honor a higher rate. It simply wouldn’t work.  2. Equally important – the CBI doesn’t need the support of the GOI to successfully raise the value of the dinar, but they also don’t want opposition from the GOI.  With those things in mind, we can know that the CBI makes the final call, but both entities will work together to ensure the success.
______________________________________________________________

BGG – Quite honestly folks – the news is a real mixed bag. Some good – some not so good…and some downright confusing… personally – I think it’s all about these reforms right now.   I sure hope Abadi hasn’t bitten off more than he can chew.

My Ladies – ADJUSTING ONES CURRENCY IS VERY PAINFUL FOR THE ECONOMY. MAKE NO MISTAKE…WHEN IRAQ COMES OFF THIS PROGRAM RATE AND HAS REAL MONEY WITH REAL VALUE IT WILL TOTALLY SUCK FOR THEM FOR A FEW YEARS.  IT WILL BE PAINFUL, MANAGING THE MARKET ECONOMY IS NO JOKE.  SOME LESS INFORMED FOLKS THINK OH WELL THEY ARE GOING TO GET 2+ OR 3+ DINAR TO THE DOLLAR.  REALLY? I MEAN REALLY?  THE PEOPLE INSIDE IRAQ ARE NOT GOING TO GET ANY SUCH THING.  THE 2+ AND THE 3+ IS FOR ALL THE FOLKS ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE BORDER!

BGG ~ There is absolutely no truth to – or evidence there will be an “in-country” and “out-of-country” rate. This is a silly assertion!!

Adam Montana – [I had read some weeks back how al-Abadi was cleaning house, with the result that a number of people were out of a job.  Have you heard or read what progress is being made on filling those positions, hopefully with people who have integrity.  Are there positions in the GOI that will need to be filled before the RV?]   If I’m thinking of the same thing you are, Abadi didn’t actually plan on “re-filling” those positions – they were simply being eliminated. I like that plan, because too many monkeys on the same tree is just as bad as too many chefs in the same kitchen.  What I said sometime ago about the GOI being important was that we needed a significant change and improvement in the GOI, and I believe that requirement has been “filled” to a very reasonably satisfactory level.

Mnt Goat – ..not only is the CBI making an effort to prevent money laundering but now we see the GOI (under Abadi’s direction) finally stepping it up and going after the culprits…beginning the effort to clean up the CBI and its corruption as part of his phase III reforms. I personally do not think that ANY one event is “holding up” the revaluation process but simply Iraq it not yet ready. When will they be ready?  WHEN EVERYTHING IS IN PLACE AND THEY (IRAQ, UN and USA) FEEL COMFORTABLE WITH THEIR SITUATION!

Kaperoni – It all comes down to parliament and laws.  When they get around to passing these important laws for investors they will begin to create a market economy.  And hopefully, the dinar will rise as a result.

BGG – The rats are lining up on one side – Abadi on the other, I think Mahmoud will be crushed before this is over…Sistani has great influence with the PMU’s also. I don’t think Ameri (or Mahmoud) will win this fight. The political corruption MUST END – the WB/IMF is INSISTENT – and these jokers just can’t manage to leave the trough. They (Allawi – Maliki – Mutlaq and others) are clearly showing themselves as defending their corrupt way of life.   I do think Abadi will work with Parliament to get this solved. He is OBVIOUSLY serious about dealing with their corrupt issues.

NY and London.  I see real intent here as a real possibility…that the dinar needs a change in status to allow ALL of the above?   [post 2 of 2]

Adam Montana – I have good news and bad news today.  The bad news first – no HCL, no RV. Sorry.  The good news is…Look for the headlines on ISIS and turmoil in Iraq.   You aren’t seeing many, are you? That’s right! Because things are actually going VERY well over there right now, and this is exactly the situation we want to be in before the HCL is passed and they can successfully make a big change to the value of their currency. Although I am cautiously optimistic, this looks to me like the “quiet before the storm”. Let’s go, Iraq! Time to get this show on the road!

Kaperoni – So, IMO  this is going to be gradual just as the IMF stated.  It also confirms there is no LOP (which would be an entire replacement at the same time over a short period of time). You also would not need to reduce the note count first if your going to LOP, you simply introduce the new denominations.  So,  if they reduce the physical note count from 4 billion to around a 1.5 billion, they can substantial consolidate the physical Iraqi dinar. Though it does not reduce the money supply, it may make it much easier for them to transition to smaller denominations once the float begins (ie 50, 100, 200 early 2017). I guess we wait and see.  [post 2 of 2]

Kaperoni – Raising the value gradually does chop the zeros off the exchange rate…just not overnight.  There is no chance of the dinar ever appreciating to a 1 to $1 rate overnight (RV)...it’s not mathematically possible with around 32 trillion dinar or more in circulation. Not to mention, the CBI has never mentioned one time about introducing an entire set of new bills (ie fils, 1, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100) at one time.  In  fact, all we have ever seen is the mention of a few notes and several years to complete.  And most recently, it was stated that the 50, 100, and 200 would come out around the first of 2017.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Real reform is the reform of the judicial system

A spokesman for the Office Saad al-Hadithi In a press statement today: “The Iraqi constitution did not give the President of the Council of Ministers, or cabinet met for the right to dismiss the head of the judiciary or interference in the affairs of the judiciary,” noting that “from the jurisdiction of the legislative and judicial branches of government.”…

Hub – …they said they wanted to develop the social sections of the economy in the next 4 years this is about right…but for a country like iraq to only see a 50% increase in the next 15 years is a very slow growth with their resources, then they want to have experts come in to help set up the infrastructures for iraq, now how in the world will 1166 to 1 currency entice any growth or any experts to come to iraq to straighten them out.  …with out a tradable, non-exotic recognized currency none of this will be accomplished.  as far as if it is a economy growth or isx, i am not sure…but to obtain 50% in 15 years with oil, gold, ag, and all the other stuff seems to be very conservative…they need to get off  high center and get after it.   …the simplistic economy lesson is how much does it take to by a coke. in us dollars we take $1.50, canada 1.70, in mexico 15 pesos, in iraq 100 dinar so the answer is ok go to the bank or store or dairy queen and buy a coke with dinar…nope, wont work, so this is the dilemma for iraq…make your money worth something.

Political sources: al-Maliki, trying to return to Parliament in the hope “immunity” and “challenged” in front of the judiciary in the abolition of office

Political sources revealed that former Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki is trying to escape from prosecution in the case of the fall of Mosul through his quest to return to Parliament in anticipation of immunity on the one hand and appeal to the judiciary to cancel his other hand.

This comes in conjunction with the description of Abbas Moussawi, media adviser to the owners in a statement to the London-based Asharq al-Awsat last sacking from the post of Vice President of the Republic is unconstitutional, noting that such impeachment must be subject to the law…

BGG – Quote:  “...Maliki is poised to lose his ceremonial post as one of Iraq’s three vice presidents under a series of reforms that the current prime minister, Haider al-Abadi, is trying to enact.”   Or probably already has “lost his position”…there is NO WAY the WB/IMF will let this get overturned – Abadi will get worldwide support for this… it shows the very character of the struggle going on in Iraq RIGHT NOW.  I don’t think Maliki will survive this onslaught…AND I think if anyone can “dethrone” Maliki from in front of the PMU – IT’S SISTANI!!  He’s the driving force behind the support Abadi has and is the catalyst for these reforms!!   [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat – This is my personal theory on what the CBI is ultimately is going to do – I believe they know they must float the value of the IQD and gradually let it rise. They will NOT ATTEMPT to push out a very high rate right (i.e. $3.91) initially due to the money laundering (the current CBI governor has not controlled) and the terrorists activities. The CBI does talk about starting the project to delete the zeros sometime in very early 2016. What will they ultimately do? Again my personal belief is strong that Abadi is going to clean up the CBI too and Dr Shabibi will be back as the governor of the CBI to continue his original plan as they are almost now back on track.  [post 2 of 2]

BGG – Article quote:  “Dozens of people demonstrated on Monday in front of the Supreme Judicial Council building in Baghdad to demand the resignation of President of the Council Medhat al-Mahmoud…”  …once Medhat al-Mahmoud is gone – Maliki has ZERO fall back position. It’s really, really bad news for the Shia/thug/hardliners…these protests asking for Medhat’s removal are a big deal – I guess maybe the biggest deal of the day.
______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat – The CBI knows it must make some kind of move in the near future to go international. The pressure is enormous to do something.  So again we are seeing many articles published on debates going on about changing the dinar exchange rate.  Last week…they were debating the pros and cons of FLOATING the dinar rate and the disparity of the Iraqi dinar to other neighboring countries.  So what will they actually do?  Iraq simply can not continue to do business and move forward without a realistic currency value.  We know if they finally roll out to the international exchanges and then float the currency at a low beginning rate, it  will not be long before we see some significant value increase.  We will all then be subject to the international market rate at the banks at this point and so we can then go exchange our dinar anytime we wish and at any rate.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Shredd – Article quote:  “…which will be an important factor in creating excellent investment environment and meet the aspiration of all parties.”  That is for sure. When the investment laws are passed, that will truly open opportunities for investors who have been waiting for protections.  The banking side has come a long way regarding balances and conversion protections, and now with these laws passed, will position Iraq for some much needed stimulus. Investment = lending = borrowing = commerce = jobs = revenue = taxes.  That’s a win/win!

Meet the man trying to bring Iraq back from the brink

Riot policemen stand in front of protesters during demonstration against the poor quality of basic services, power outages and calling for trial of corrupt politicians in Baghdad

On August 16, an Iraqi parliamentary report named Iraq’s former prime minister, Nouri al-Maliki, among dozens of officials responsible for the collapse of security forces and the fall of Mosul to Islamic State militants last summer. In his eight years as premier, corruption thrived and Maliki repeatedly purged the Iraqi security forces of those he suspected of disloyalty.

Iraqis now hope that Maliki and other officials will stand trial and be held to account for why militants were able to capture the northern city with so little resistance. (Maliki dismissed the parliamentary investigation as “worthless,” and he blamed Mosul’s fall on a conspiracy by Turkish and Kurdish leaders.)…

tman23 – BAGHDAD – Coordinators of recent protests in provinces throughout Iraq are fearing for their lives, as four have already been assassinated. Al Jazeera claimed that the victims were assassinated in retaliation for their role in the demonstrations. Iraqi civil rights activis Odai Zaydi, claimed that political parties are responsible for the assassinations “as they are originally against the establishment of a democratic government in Iraq.”……….  EXACTLY WHY……Laws are contested and delayed…. The whole idea of Iraq was a democracy in the Middle East……but the hardliners favor “regimes”……..And as Abadi said…. it may cost him his life BUT he is moving forward with reforms and democracy for the citizens of Iraq.

______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat – I will say that we are heading for a great window of opportunity for an RV come mid September and onward. Abadi’s government had until mid September to implement the needed laws to support the necessary reforms, as these reforms are part of his promises made during the negotiations to allow him to take control of the government and to be seated as the new prime minister.  Also, resulting from a second Paris Conference in mid June, they also gave him 90 more days to complete the reforms (on corruption) and get in place other laws to support the economy (i.e Investment law and Banking laws, anti-Laundering laws, etc).  I believe that if he can be successful we may also see the currency reform finally implemented.  Again I am telling you the RV is a by-product of this reform process and not the means in itself.  They desperately need these reforms prior to any RV.

This is HUGE for insuring the downturn of Maliki.  So why is money laundering so important all of a sudden? Do they want billions of dinar going into the wrong hands when the value increases?

House of Representatives voted unanimously on a law on political parties

Long-Presse / Baghdad – The voice of the Iraqi Council of Representatives on Thursday unanimously passed a bill on political parties after 13 years on regime change in Iraq.

A parliamentary source said in an interview to the (long-Presse), “The House of Representatives voted during its 16th legislative term of the first second legislative year, which was held today, on the draft political parties law.”

The source, who asked not to be named, said: “vote is unanimous.”…

American Contractor – Washingston Post Article 8/18/15 Quote:  “Iraq also revived a long-delayed plan to redenominate the Iraqi dinar by knocking three zeroes off the nominal value of its banknotes, said Ihsan Shamran al-Yassiri, the head of Iraq Central Bank Issuing and Vaults Department. The plan is set to be implemented by 2017 after restructuring dinar by issuing two large banknotes – a 50,000 dinar note before the end of this year and 100,000 banknote next year – and canceling small ones.”   Small Iraq Bank notes will be canceled soon says Central Bank…the 250, 500, and 1,000 bank notes will be removed…there are not that many in circulation.

How can a currency that is not traded world wide and is already at a false low be devalued?]  Bloomberg did not say the Iraqi currency would be devalued…it was interesting Bloomberg was even talking about it – but their tone, tenor and confused looks ought to be enough to convince you that most of what “the experts” say is speculative double talk…and if Iraq gets Maliki tossed out it will likely “depeg” (float) and go UP IMMEDIATELY (if what they were saying is right).

Investment Law is crucial as well.  Those 3 effect the Global economy. Yes many laws are still needing implementation for the nation of Iraq but not for the monetary reform.  HCL is very much needed for IRAQ!  Could it be put off?

I assure you the process is already in play. The men on the chess board are about to be moved around.  So this week looks very good. I expect announcements of some of the recent reforms and Reconciliation legislation signed into law. Also I suspect this week or in the next couple weeks, we are once again some movement into a fantastic window of opportunity to see a change in the currency value of Iraq...I feel we are at the very near end to this RV saga.  [post 2 of 2]

Analysts: al-Maliki at war again after being convicted of the report of Mosul

http://www.dinarupdates.com/showthread.php?18174-Analysts-al-Maliki-at-war-again-after-being-convicted-of-the-report-of-Mosul&p=128045&viewfull=1#post128045

BGG Notes:

Maliki came back from Iran where he met with most of his most ardent Shia supporters (not all Shias support him – as before).

The Dawa party (and Maliki) “facially supports” these recent reforms called for by the Iraqi Clerics and the demonstrators (the people)… However, it’s a political tactic. He needs to look like..

“HE’S THE REFORMER”, or at least line himself up with the reforms…

Then there’s these rants blaming Erbil and Turkey for the fall of Mosul. Maliki must think no one remembers Barzani going to the press when Maliki wouldn’t listen about ISIS on the move.

There are articles out that affirm they put the SLC at Abadi’s disposal… again a weak showing of being “on the side of reforms” – not the “focus of the reforms”…

On the other hand Maliki is secretly attempting to subvert Abadi  everything he does.

It is worth noting – there are numerous OP ED’s out recently pointing out that if Maliki really wanted reforms he would have done so long ago.

Maliki is in now in FULL DAMAGE control…

The Friday before the Mosul Report was coming out – he went to Iran to gather support. This move seems to have (temporarily) worked. This caught me a little off-guard. I didn’t think he had that kind of support from Iran once they pulled their support from his bid for a 3rd term.

He did not come back until he had some assurance of some kind – though no guarantee, he must feel he has some potential for survival.

This just goes to show you. I was told some time ago he had deep support from some very unlikely sources. It appears both Sunni leadership was “on the take” as well as some level of support from the Iranian Mullahs. Though they don’t seem to support another Maliki term – they don’t appear ready to throw him overboard just yet either. There is no guarantee they won’t though.

They have even sent Gen Qassem Soleimani into Iraq south of Baghdad to orchestrate a “quelling” of the demonstrations and supposedly to secure Maliki’s safety. However, I am not convinced his ultimate safety is Soleimani’s underlying mission.

This report of Gen. Soleimani being there is limited in it’s scope (how many times/and how it is reported) – so I view this with a healthy dose of skepticism. Also – this frantic move to maintain control over Iraq may well backfire on them. It is becoming clearer and clearer they have some agenda. This is surely not lost on the Iraqi people. Overall, they are typically not happy about external influence – US or Iranian. They don’t like it. One good thing – all of this has forced the Iranians to play their hand in a more public fashion. Now they all know…

Abadi was quoted just recently as saying…

…”the prime minister does not think now in dissent nor undo the reforms, and will not seek to raise Maliki’s name from the list of defendants fall of Mosul.”…

Meaning – he won’t take Maliki’s name out of this report… it will play out.

I don’t see – with the mounting charges, how Maliki survives this barrage. Mosul, Halabja, embezzlement from the CBI, the Speicher massacre, the prison break, it goes on and on and on…

Further – my comments regarding “Maliki as gone” – are clearly “forward looking statements” and ARE IN PROGRESS. Visible progress has been made – for now, Maliki is NOT A VP and is NOT WELCOME in official GOI meetings. Party meetings are one thing. GOI is another thing entirely.

Rather than get caught up in who’s right and who’s wrong and what the details are – what about the WHY?? WHY did Abadi move now?? Was it demonstrators?? No – I doubt it very much. Maliki can think he has everyone right where he wants them – but keep in mind this whole campaign of reform was kicked off by the WB/IMF telling Iraq to get their AML (Anti-Money Laundering) and corruption under control (both issues pointed DIRECTLY AT MALIKI). They were given until Oct 1st to get an AML law put in place. It would probably help Abadi to have an Investment Law in place as well.

Thus far Abadi has responded. Judiciary is next. He needs to keep up the pressure...

BGG – [How will $40 oil affect an RV…at one time it was said that $100 oil was needed?]   IMHO – not at all, I don’t agree with $100 oil being required. In fact, if one ascribes to a “short move” or “emergency currency reform” as a short term budget deficit “bridge” – then $40 oil is not a problem – but a catalyst for change.

[With all the news that we have read recently, was hoping to get…input on where we are, and where we’re headed.]  … Iraq is moving forward not backwards like some are implying. Yes, I would like to see things move a bit faster… I do have some positive news but I have not had a chance to verify it from additional sources. It is very positive.
______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat – As we know Maliki traveled to Iran with a delegation from his party. I believe his intent was to defect to Iran since he also traveled with his family. Once there he was asked to return to Iraq. He is now back in Iraq…  Abadi is moving quickly on the clean up of the Judiciary system to get the Judicial Reforms implemented. This will clear the way for any obstacles for many future reform objectives including bringing Maliki and his goons to their final demise thus stopping the stalling of needed legislation to complete the Reconciliation efforts agreed to be completed by mid September. These reforms are moving lightening fast.

Millionday – Article quote:  “The International Monetary Fund forecast on Wednesday, the Iraqi economy growth of 0.5% by the end of this year, thanks to expansion in the oil sector, and increase the contraction of economic activity in the non-oil.”  THE INCREASE OF NON-OIL IS ALL OTHER PRODUCTION OTHER THAN OIL CALCULATED WITH GDP.   THE IMF FIGURES REPRESENT THE ACTIVATED REFORM RESULTS…THE IMF IS HAPPY WITH THE REFORM PACKAGE AND HAS ADJUSTED ALONG WITH REFORMS PREDICTIONS OF GROWTH FOR THIS YEAR.

Seems that if they are using the dollar then we must still be supporting them financially. If that’s the case then they don’t really need to be concerned about the Dinar’s value.]  The CBI runs auctions and uses the dollar to balance the rate. From an RV standpoint it really doesn’t matter that they are using USD and IQD. All that matters is where the CBI sets the rate, because that determines how many USD we get for each Dinar.  Long story short – their use of USD is not a bad thing for us.

Al Maliki steps into Al Hashemi’s shoes

Iraqi Prime Minister Al Abadi still has a long way to go, but he is on the right track

It is a curious twist of irony that the man who pursued the now-fugitive former Iraqi vice-president Tariq Al Hashemi may suffer a similar fate. Iraq’s former premier, and former vice-president Nouri Al Maliki is currently in Iran, where some have suggested that he may never come back from as Baghdad seeks to investigate his role in the fall of Mosul to Daesh (the self-proclaimed Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant) last year. The move was a milestone for the terror group that allowed it to gain much support among radicals around the globe, as well as territory in Iraq and Syria…

Arthur – It should now be blatantly obvious that the one missing piece to the whole RV puzzle is the lack of a Hydrocarbon Law (HCL) in Iraq to release the budget funds to the provinces as well as a myriad other items that the HCL benefits. In light of where we are in the process we can now release breaking news gathered from sources within the process.  Without going into too much minute details, the delay in the full blown release of the next round of reforms was, among other things due to the instability in the political arena in the Kurdistan region. We have information that much of that has now reached a sufficient point of closure that the next round of reforms, including the HCL is now in imminent status with the signing of some documents and release by the PTB.  We are now in a countdown to the full blown economic reform introducing the Iraqi dinar to the international community.

BGG: Wow –

BGG: [the report] – emphasizes that what happened before the fall of Mosul was planned by al-Maliki in order to return to power and picking the third mandate until the door drop Sunni leaders in the western regions and the declaration of emergency law that allows him to control and put the Kurdistan region with a fait accompli,

BGG: which I said over and over – no one cared much (at the time) to listen…

BGG: WOW – as I read this whole report, it strikes me, the reason Maliki is coming back (or has – or will Thursday)… reference is made to the fact, if he stays gone his political influence ends QUICKLY.

tman23 – Actually what we are seeing is not at all surprising… June was the end of the road…and we are witnessing the change of dynamics in warp speed…There is a time limit and it is Oct 1st… But there are a host of world events tied into this timeline …which are quite coincidental if you believe in such! …there are so many documents that were set with this date from different resources.

BGG – Article quote:   “…the mini-financial committee set up by Parliament to follow up on money laundering in the central bank file or transfer large sums of money out of the country accuse Maliki of being behind it.  Stunning news…Maliki was involved in the largest money laundering operation in Iraq…they actually pinned the Money Laundering / Embezzlement directly from the CBI ON HIM!!

Kaperoni – Article:  “Jubouri: The second package of reforms will contain a lot of detailed important decisions”   We can see now that these various committees are being formed to present to the PM reforms. And the second package appears to begin to including banking reforms..specifically mentioned here “guarantee deposits.” This brings me to the committee that met yesterday discussing the currency… We could be seeing the beginning of many steps to improve the economy, strengthen the banking system and improve the value of the currency. It will be interesting to watch these packages of reforms over the next several weeks and how they are implemented.

tman23 – BAGHDAD — The head of the committee investigating the fall of Mosul, Hakim al-Zamili has revealed that there is no evidence to suggest KRG President Massoud Barzani or former Iraqi Parliament Speaker Osama al-Nujaifi are accountable the fall of Mosul. It had been rumoured that Barzani and al-Nujaifi were included on the list, but al-Zamili rejected the claims. President Barzani insists that he warned former PM Nouri al-Maliki about the serious threats facing northern Iraq before IS launched their 2014 attacks, but was ignored.…….. Now we wait for the reports that will expose Maliki funneling Iraqi money to Tehran…….And that I assume will go over very well with Iraqi citizens and their fondness for Tehran

wmawhite – Well, well ,well…now the U.S. News and World Report is reporting the same thing:..“US News & World Report – Iraqi selling intl bonds and redominating currency…Reacting to the crisis, Iraq plans to issues bonds worth $7 billion — $5 billion in international bonds… Iraq also revived a long-delayed plan to redenominate the Iraqi dinar by knocking three zeroes off the nominal value of its banknotes, said Ihsan Shamran al-Yassiri, the head of Iraq Central Bank Issuing and Vaults Department”  the significance is that the IQD will be on the bond market. The bond market is twice the size of all of the world’s stock markets combined.   when the IQD is on the bond market the individual bonds are able to move freely.  This is the first step of the IQD reentering the world currency markets. Exciting and nice news. [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

tman23 – The new currency must come first as a prelude to the deletion of the 3 zeros from the currency… This is the biggest statement ever made yet so often overlooked! If they are speaking of new lower denoms, then they would need a rate other then 1166…and if they come first, then the 3 zero notes will carry high value before removing the 3 zeros at the exchange window…what is the time limit…72 hrs…7 days…who knows…but it is possible! The other scenario is seeing a 50,000 note come in October…if that hits the streets then it is not looking good no matter how anyone tries to spin it… Make no mistake…the world is on the edge of financial disasters… it is real and live! There are 33 consulates now opened in Erbil… All these countries are lining up at the feeding trough…IMO it is bigger then Iraq…something BIG is being prepared… and TIME IS A FACTOR!

Frank26 – The Monetary Reform remains in front of us.  It is our opinion that Dr. S [Shabibi] will be returning but we just don’t know when.  Again, IOO (In Our Opinion) the reforms will need an RI to start them.  From the article earlier today, “Let it Float”….this will put things in the hands of the international world and with this will come a faster rise in the rate…IOO.  With the actions being taken by PM Abadi in the form of his reforms expect to see the removal of many things, people, policies, laws, etc. he will make sure that nothing stands in the way of his reforms as we move forward.

Iraq: Report on fall of Mosul to ISIS calls for ex-PM Maliki to face trial

Others implicated include former acting defense minister and Mosul’s governor



Baghdad, Reuters—
Iraq’s parliament on Monday referred to the judiciary a report calling for the trial of former prime minister Nuri Al-Maliki and dozens of other top officials in connection with the fall of Mosul to the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) last year, two lawmakers said…

Breitling – They [the CBI] are telling business and local banks to stop doing business with Iran…the main reason why is they [Iran] are trying to pump US dollars into iraq because they know they [Iraq] are trying to add value to the dinar and they [Iran] know one of the tools to keep the value of the dinar down was the US dollar…it’s a back door confirmation of what the intent is of what Iraq wants to do.   They are cutting Iran off at the knees.  It’s one thing if the CBI can scoop up those dollars and put them into the reserves…that’s a good thing but there is so much that they’re having a problem with it.  And it will keep the value of the dinar down if they don’t tackle it.

It’s going to become a democratic country – Insurgents don’t like that hipocrasy as long as they work with the new government. Our boots on the ground is to protect a new justice that’s about to come to bear.  JUSTICE….and the reinstatement of many reforms.  [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

Round Table Chat w/BGG 8-17-15

Thanks to DinarRecaps.com for posting Round Table with BGG 

BGG: Jubouri: We have no right to delete any name from Mosul report

BGG: The head of the parliament Saleem al-Jubouri, on Monday, the House of Representatives does not have the right to delete any name mentioned in the report of the fall of Mosul, while pointing out that the report was written neutrally and did not exclude a paragraph or a name and did not succumb to pressure…

BGG: This piece was all about the mention of Maliki as the key figure in the report.

BGG: he and his people wanted his name off it and those currently in charge wouldn’t take his name off…

BGG: Very cool piece.

Robl: Do we know where Maliki is at the present? Iran, Iraq?

BGG: I am suspicious – he may be in Iran.

Of course not.  Six months ago, Abadi asked Dr. Shabibi to come back – but he said not under these conditions. Once I know the banks are secure and Aleck gone and get rid of Maliki’s son too…Dr. Shabibi said if you BUILD THIS FOR ME, I’ll be back…and I see that you’ve built what I want.  …SOCIAL MEDIA, YOUTUBE…you can find “keywords” there…when you see “KEYWORD” substitute DR.

wmawhite – The discussion about what type of notes are used on the streets is totally different from a discussion about the yet to be announced international exchange rate. There will be one international exchange rate for the IQD which is only applicable outside the country. That will in turn determine the type and size of the note to be used in country.  Folks, what you can take away from this discussion and that article is that the citizens are being told to expect changes in the currency they will use on the streets and why?  Because, the IQD will be put on the world currency market and the new value of the IQD will affect the type of note they will use inside Iraq. Plain and simple. [If the IQD does float, will there be value added & then it floats or will it float from 1166? If it floats from 1166 will there be demand for the IQD at that level?]  The CBI will never tell what they will do until after it is implemented. We will know the same time the rest of the world currency markets know.   [post 2 of 2]

So that article was telling the citizens that they should expect to have additional purchasing power equal to $75.00 where it used to be only $25.00…additionally, they are being reminded that the large notes will gradually go away…but they will have 3 times the purchasing power.  the CBI has over and over emphaized that the three zeros notes will continue to be legal tender…but has to [as the?] prices in the economy are reduced the need for the large notes go away and are replaced with LDs.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Aggiedad77 – Article: “Economist: deletion of zeros from the currency will reduce the dollar traded in the local market”  It would appear that we have a case of apples and oranges here…they don’t mix too well when put into a case…it was either designed for apples or for oranges, but as a mix, the lid just won’t close properly.  We even see the use of Dr. S [Shabibi] name here…saying he was ready four years ago but the project was delayed as they awaited the correct conditions…then we witnessed the ouster of Dr. S from his position as Governor of the CBI and we believe opportunities have been squandered ever since.  Well the time grows ripe again…will we see the return of Dr. S with the ouster today of keywords from his position as “acting” governor of the CBI…a job that apparently he hasn’t done too well in the eyes of PM Abadi.  Remember who appointed him…the removal of the 000’s was Dr. S’s baby…his project…but not in this manner or fashion…only the truth in action here will set any of us free…and as part of that truth keep in mind this is one person’s opinion…and he is not a part of the process that will bring Dr. S’s project to fruition.
______________________________________________________________

firefly – This is a VERY complicated process. Watch for events not dates.  […what events should we be watching for now?]   I’m looking for the IMPLEMENTATION of certain laws…Necessary for the reform to succeed without flaw.  [Mosal and Anbar, International Law, Tarriffs, Amnesty, Implementation…]  and a few more!  The anti money laundering law is crucial…Investment Law!  Tariffs will probably be after the fact IMO.   …the meeting last Saturday went extremely well!  Everything started moving at lightning speed on Sunday correct?  I’m focused on Abadi and the CBI…period… end of story.  [how much time you think…? I will not do dates or windows…but SOON has an entirely new meaning now IMO.

tlm724 – Article quote:  “Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi has sent two letters to the Integrity Commission to have this commission immediately begin investigating on a number of corruption files”   I have been waiting for this!  Quote:  “According to these sources Haider al-Abadi has emphasized on opening the corruption files of Ahmad Maliki, the son of Maliki. Orders for the arrest of former Iraqi Central Bank director Sanan al-Shabibi has also been ordered…”  that doesn’t mean it’s so but we need to watch for any further developments!  all institutions are under the spot light and lets not forget that Maliki appointed Ali Alak as CBI governor after Turki.
______________________________________________________________

Millionday – Article quotes: “Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi has sent two letters to the Integrity Commission to have this commission immediately begin investigating on a number of corruption files regarding Nouri Maliki and Baha al-Araji.”  “Orders for the arrest of former Iraqi Central Bank director Sanan al-Shabibi has also been ordered, according to al-Baghdadiya.”  SO OBVIOUSLY WE WILL HAVE TO SEE WHERE THIS GOES — SO I WILL SAY THE ONLY WAY THIS CAN BE VERIFIED IS THROUGH ACTION.  [Did I read that correctly!? “Orders for the arrest of former Iraqi Central Bank director Sanan al-Shabibi has also been ordered…”   I thought Abadi helped Dr. S to get out of charges late last year?]   THE HEAD OF CBI IS APPOINTED BUT WE HAVE SEEN THIS BEFORE — WE WILL HAVE TO SEE WHERE IT GOES WITH SHABIBI — I CANNOT VERIFY THIS.

Mp State law Nicole, the previous Government led by former Prime Minister and Vice-President of the Republic article Nouri al-Maliki responsible for strained state budget, at the same time revealing the presence of 300 in the State Constitution, have been distributed.

Al-kinani said in a statement: “the decisions of the Government and parliamentary reform has two dimensions, economic dimension because it represents a step towards addressing the SAG of the administrative and financial functioning of the State institutions including the Government itself, as well as another political dimension of such decisions will pave to cancel quota confessional that has made the country a standstill.”

“Prime Minister Haidar Al-Abbadi decisions timely and represent a genuine response to the will of the masses and in line with the directives of the good religious reference”…

BGG – [How long do you think it will take to remove Alak?]  that is the last piece of the puzzle – if you are asking me – doesn’t sound like long…there was also a SCATHING PIECE about Alak being a child and not at all qualified to be the Gov of the CBI.  Quite honestly – the happenings in Iraq are breathtaking…there is a lot going on all at once.  [The next week will be interesting to see how CBI plays out.]  the next week should be very interesting indeed.

firefly – IMO Abadi and Shabibi are in the same boat. Each is paddling in unison towards one goal.  Remember…it was Abadi that forced the courts to remove all previous charges brought on Shabibi from Maliki.  Shabibi has NEVER been OFFICIALLY replaced…just a bunch of proxy (fillers) for the position.  …according to the old constitution…the CBI Governor had to be voted in by Parliament.  Maliki to my understanding never had the power to appoint a permanent Governor.

Millionday – [So what part is yet to be done before they are ready to do the RV. I mean where do we fit in the scheme of things? ONE OF THE REPORTS WE HAD ANNOUNCED THAT WITH THE REFORM LAW BEING PASSED THE IMPORTANT LAWS WERE PASSED TOO — SO AT THIS POINT MANY THINGS ARE NOT BEING RELEASED — WE DONT HAVE A DATE OR RATE AND HAVE NOT HAD ONE OR A GUARANTEE BUT — SO MANY THINGS HAVE MOVED FORWARD FROM WHERE WE WERE — HUGE PROGRESS.
______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat – I believe Abadi has a new target – that of the Judiciary and Court System of Iraq.  Abadi must deal with the judiciary now in order to get some of these other laws passed and properly deal with much of the corruption.  So how do you judiciously deal with corruption in your ministries if the court system itself is corrupt?   …Iraq had to be sorted out by Abadi and priorities placed, a plan was designed. He is taking on one bite at a time and being cautious. He now has support (and continues) to have support of the citizens in this work that lays ahead. We know without a shadow of a doubt that there will be no RV without Amnesty and other laws. This is given facts to us. So to get these needed laws implemented Abadi must clean up the crocked judiciary system (as well as his ministers).  Abadi has gotten momentum from the protestors and so it is time now to move forward on these judicial reforms and we should all be jumping up and down with joy. We have waited soooo long for this to happen.

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.

Estimate the shadow price of foreign currency:…

Breitling – You will never find a country putting out their daily note count.  That is a well kept secret.  Iraq has put out 3 reports in the Iraqi Journal.  the first report was 9 Billion to 6 billion [Note count] then 6 billion to 4 billion…but their is no daily count…it simply does not work that way.

My Ladies – ADJUSTING ONES CURRENCY IS VERY PAINFUL FOR THE ECONOMY. MAKE NO MISTAKE…WHEN IRAQ COMES OFF THIS PROGRAM RATE AND HAS REAL MONEY WITH REAL VALUE IT WILL TOTALLY SUCK FOR THEM FOR A FEW YEARS.  IT WILL BE PAINFUL, MANAGING THE MARKET ECONOMY IS NO JOKE.  SOME LESS INFORMED FOLKS THINK OH WELL THEY ARE GOING TO GET 2+ OR 3+ DINAR TO THE DOLLAR.  REALLY? I MEAN REALLY?  THE PEOPLE INSIDE IRAQ ARE NOT GOING TO GET ANY SUCH THING.  THE 2+ AND THE 3+ IS FOR ALL THE FOLKS ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE BORDER!

Adam Montana – [I had read some weeks back how al-Abadi was cleaning house, with the result that a number of people were out of a job.  Have you heard or read what progress is being made on filling those positions, hopefully with people who have integrity.  Are there positions in the GOI that will need to be filled before the RV?]   If I’m thinking of the same thing you are, Abadi didn’t actually plan on “re-filling” those positions – they were simply being eliminated. I like that plan, because too many monkeys on the same tree is just as bad as too many chefs in the same kitchen.  What I said sometime ago about the GOI being important was that we needed a significant change and improvement in the GOI, and I believe that requirement has been “filled” to a very reasonably satisfactory level.

Breitling – ...right now if you look how much dinar they have taken off the market and the way the economy is growing based on the past and how they have framed up the currency based on market rates, you’re looking at between .42 and .52 cents right now.  That is where it should be if they pulled the trigger today.  Remember, that’s manipulated.  That’s because of the amount of notes they have on the market.  I’m not saying they are going to come out at the range…that’s what we calculated.  that’s the value that we are looking at.  We are all at the mercy of the CBI.  We have to wait to see what’s going on.  [Post 2 of 2 ]

Frank26 – Article:  “Re-investigation in the case of Dr. Shabibi with the CBI.”   That’s false…nobody is investigating Dr. S…It’s the judges who are being investigated because they took a payola from Maliki who stole everything.   He’s coming back to the Central Bank of Iraq. What is he going to do when he comes back? He’s going to fix the mess in the CBI.  Dr. S and A [Abadi] want the MR to flow but it has to be done correctly.  Dr. Shabibi said when he left – GIVE ME STABILITY. In order to see that date you want so badly.   The MR [Monetary Reform] is no where complete.  No dates. We’re not ready though a lot of the things are done. The MR is active, moving, constructive, amazing…but he will come back to clean up the mess.

______________________________________________________________

Breitling – They are selling the bonds for US dollars and they are going to put them in their foreign currency reserve.  They are not using the bonds to take out dinar they are using the bond to take out dollars…those US dollars will not be in the Iraqi economy to compete against the dinar…  I don’t see anything in Iraq pushing or delaying the value of the dinar going up…they are going to float it up little bit by little bit…it’s a 2 year time frame.

Kaperoni – It all comes down to parliament and laws.  When they get around to passing these important laws for investors they will begin to create a market economy.  And hopefully, the dinar will rise as a result.

BGG – The rats are lining up on one side – Abadi on the other, I think Mahmoud will be crushed before this is over…Sistani has great influence with the PMU’s also. I don’t think Ameri (or Mahmoud) will win this fight. The political corruption MUST END – the WB/IMF is INSISTENT – and these jokers just can’t manage to leave the trough. They (Allawi – Maliki – Mutlaq and others) are clearly showing themselves as defending their corrupt way of life.   I do think Abadi will work with Parliament to get this solved. He is OBVIOUSLY serious about dealing with their corrupt issues.

Adam Montana – I have good news and bad news today.  The bad news first – no HCL, no RV. Sorry.  The good news is…Look for the headlines on ISIS and turmoil in Iraq.   You aren’t seeing many, are you? That’s right! Because things are actually going VERY well over there right now, and this is exactly the situation we want to be in before the HCL is passed and they can successfully make a big change to the value of their currency. Although I am cautiously optimistic, this looks to me like the “quiet before the storm”. Let’s go, Iraq! Time to get this show on the road!

Protests and uprisings against the government and in less than 30 days…24 hr a day electricity will be turned on. So what was the problem before this…Not enough fuel to run generators? Not enough money to buy fuel? Amazing…

Kaperoni – So, IMO  this is going to be gradual just as the IMF stated.  It also confirms there is no LOP (which would be an entire replacement at the same time over a short period of time). You also would not need to reduce the note count first if your going to LOP, you simply introduce the new denominations.  So,  if they reduce the physical note count from 4 billion to around a 1.5 billion, they can substantial consolidate the physical Iraqi dinar. Though it does not reduce the money supply, it may make it much easier for them to transition to smaller denominations once the float begins (ie 50, 100, 200 early 2017). I guess we wait and see.  [post 2 of 2]

Kaperoni – Raising the value gradually does chop the zeros off the exchange rate…just not overnight.  There is no chance of the dinar ever appreciating to a 1 to $1 rate overnight (RV)...it’s not mathematically possible with around 32 trillion dinar or more in circulation. Not to mention, the CBI has never mentioned one time about introducing an entire set of new bills (ie fils, 1, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100) at one time.  In  fact, all we have ever seen is the mention of a few notes and several years to complete.  And most recently, it was stated that the 50, 100, and 200 would come out around the first of 2017.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Real reform is the reform of the judicial system

BAGHDAD / News Network Iraq confirmed the Office of the Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi, Tuesday, that it is not the prerogative of the Council of Ministers or the President to sack the judiciary Chairman Medhat al-Mahmoud, while noting that it can not implement reforms without the presence spend a fair and impartial.

A spokesman for the Office Saad al-Hadithi In a press statement today: “The Iraqi constitution did not give the President of the Council of Ministers, or cabinet met for the right to dismiss the head of the judiciary or interference in the affairs of the judiciary,” noting that “from the jurisdiction of the legislative and judicial branches of government.”…

BGG – Iraqi Prime Minister Haidar Al-Abbadi, a heavy legacy of corruption and corrupt people piled up during the reign of his predecessor, Nouri al-Maliki, making way for reforms is filled with obstacles and mines.”  “Al-Ibadi form special committees to open files of the Central Bank, Sinan Al-Shabibi sacked former County, and marred by charges of him by mafia corruption that dominated in that period.”  WOW – that’s some good stuff there!!   That seems – while mentioning the CBI – that it is more about a “broad based” corruption probe. Nice that it points out “looking into the Shabibi accusations”… GREAT!!   the reason being – it is the very CORE of why we are still here.  fix that – this thing is over.  [How long after M is gone will it be before an RV will take place?]  Iraq needs value BAD!!  it can be quick.

Political sources: al-Maliki, trying to return to Parliament in the hope “immunity” and “challenged” in front of the judiciary in the abolition of office

Political sources revealed that former Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki is trying to escape from prosecution in the case of the fall of Mosul through his quest to return to Parliament in anticipation of immunity on the one hand and appeal to the judiciary to cancel his other hand.

This comes in conjunction with the description of Abbas Moussawi, media adviser to the owners in a statement to the London-based Asharq al-Awsat last sacking from the post of Vice President of the Republic is unconstitutional, noting that such impeachment must be subject to the law…

Mnt Goat – This is my personal theory on what the CBI is ultimately is going to do – I believe they know they must float the value of the IQD and gradually let it rise. They will NOT ATTEMPT to push out a very high rate right (i.e. $3.91) initially due to the money laundering (the current CBI governor has not controlled) and the terrorists activities. The CBI does talk about starting the project to delete the zeros sometime in very early 2016. What will they ultimately do? Again my personal belief is strong that Abadi is going to clean up the CBI too and Dr Shabibi will be back as the governor of the CBI to continue his original plan as they are almost now back on track.  [post 2 of 2]

Mnt Goat – The CBI knows it must make some kind of move in the near future to go international. The pressure is enormous to do something.  So again we are seeing many articles published on debates going on about changing the dinar exchange rate.  Last week…they were debating the pros and cons of FLOATING the dinar rate and the disparity of the Iraqi dinar to other neighboring countries.  So what will they actually do?  Iraq simply can not continue to do business and move forward without a realistic currency value.  We know if they finally roll out to the international exchanges and then float the currency at a low beginning rate, it  will not be long before we see some significant value increase.  We will all then be subject to the international market rate at the banks at this point and so we can then go exchange our dinar anytime we wish and at any rate.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Meet the man trying to bring Iraq back from the brink

Riot policemen stand in front of protesters during demonstration against the poor quality of basic services, power outages and calling for trial of corrupt politicians in Baghdad

On August 16, an Iraqi parliamentary report named Iraq’s former prime minister, Nouri al-Maliki, among dozens of officials responsible for the collapse of security forces and the fall of Mosul to Islamic State militants last summer. In his eight years as premier, corruption thrived and Maliki repeatedly purged the Iraqi security forces of those he suspected of disloyalty.

Iraqis now hope that Maliki and other officials will stand trial and be held to account for why militants were able to capture the northern city with so little resistance. (Maliki dismissed the parliamentary investigation as “worthless,” and he blamed Mosul’s fall on a conspiracy by Turkish and Kurdish leaders.)…

Al Jazeera claimed that the victims were assassinated in retaliation for their role in the demonstrations. Iraqi civil rights activis Odai Zaydi, claimed that political parties are responsible for the assassinations “as they are originally against the establishment of a democratic government in Iraq.”……….  EXACTLY WHY……Laws are contested and delayed…. The whole idea of Iraq was a democracy in the Middle East……but the hardliners favor “regimes”……..And as Abadi said…. it may cost him his life BUT he is moving forward with reforms and democracy for the citizens of Iraq.

Mnt Goat – I will say that we are heading for a great window of opportunity for an RV come mid September and onward. Abadi’s government had until mid September to implement the needed laws to support the necessary reforms, as these reforms are part of his promises made during the negotiations to allow him to take control of the government and to be seated as the new prime minister.  Also, resulting from a second Paris Conference in mid June, they also gave him 90 more days to complete the reforms (on corruption) and get in place other laws to support the economy (i.e Investment law and Banking laws, anti-Laundering laws, etc).  I believe that if he can be successful we may also see the currency reform finally implemented.  Again I am telling you the RV is a by-product of this reform process and not the means in itself.  They desperately need these reforms prior to any RV.

Mnt Goat – They are also telling us that money laundering and corruption in regards to the currency float is the major obstacle.  They have passed the Parties Law this week and they are pushing aggressively towards the Judicial Reforms next week, the National Guard Law (maybe tomorrow). We know by passing the Parties law anyone alleged of criminal activity (or under investigation) can no longer hold office or receive immunity. This is HUGE for insuring the downturn of Maliki.  So why is money laundering so important all of a sudden? Do they want billions of dinar going into the wrong hands when the value increases? Is the RV then dependent on this part of currency reform?  NO REFORMS NO RV…  [post 2 of 2]

BGG – it is looking more and more like, (sometime after this first wave of reforms) they will get a legitimate HCL Law in the works…I don’t think it has been read – negotiated – gotten past the CoM or anything – but it is coming…and that is FANTASTIC NEWS.

Reforms launched by al-Abadi today a clear signal of the seriousness of reforms

BAGHDAD / Center Brief for the Iraqi Media Network (IMN) – said MP from the Civic Democratic Alliance Sunrise Alabegi that the reforms launched by Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi, on Friday, is a big step and real achievement for him, and gave a positive signal to the protesters in seriousness in reform and to move the process of anti-corruption and the corrupt who have looted the bounties of Iraq…

We know this will get us all to the bank. How long will it take to get to the end of these reforms?  Who knows for sure but we do know this week they have told us they would like to put the dinar on a currency float and at least are considering it seriously with all the pros and cons of the subject matter.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

The plan is set to be implemented by 2017 after restructuring dinar by issuing two large banknotes – a 50,000 dinar note before the end of this year and 100,000 banknote next year – and canceling small ones.”   Small Iraq Bank notes will be canceled soon says Central Bank…the 250, 500, and 1,000 bank notes will be removed…there are not that many in circulation.

Investment Law is crucial as well.  Those 3 effect the Global economy. Yes many laws are still needing implementation for the nation of Iraq but not for the monetary reform.  HCL is very much needed for IRAQ!  Could it be put off?

I thought it’s done?]  THEY ARE GOING TO DIVIDE UP PORTIONS SO THAT THE NATIONAL OIL COMPANY POLICIES DO NOT HOLD UP THE REFORM PROCESS ACCORDING TO WHAT I HAVE READ. KNOW THE HCL IS BEING PUSHED IN A HURRY AND CBI HAS STATED THAT THE TIMING IS RIPE — THIS IS A VERY EXCITING TIME.

It is likely that the resignation of Sinead be a prelude to re-seat parliament to al-Maliki after limbering included government office in addition to the pursuit of obtaining the legal immunity…”  just because they say they are giving Maliki a seat – or someone is giving up their seat (more like Maliki bought it) means he will retain immunity – or they won’t arrest him anyway… especially with the crimes he is CLEARLY accused of.  There is plenty of precedent for him to have his “immunity” lifted and be arrested immediately – this is a weak tactic… but it tells you a lot about the struggle going on right now.

Mnt Goat – Part of this effort will also be cleaning house in the CBI including the changeover from the proxy governor Ali al-Alaq to Dr. Sinan al-Shabibi.  I have evidence that speaks strongly that corruption must be cleaned out of the current CBI first before we will see any currency reform.
I assure you the process is already in play. The men on the chess board are about to be moved around.  So this week looks very good. I expect announcements of some of the recent reforms and Reconciliation legislation signed into law. Also I suspect this week or in the next couple weeks, we are once again some movement into a fantastic window of opportunity to see a change in the currency value of Iraq...I feel we are at the very near end to this RV saga.  [post 2 of 2]

We wait for his trial on many charges. This is coming in the weeks ahead. I now have proof that currency reform is in fact one of the reforms Abadi fully intends to implement VERY soon.  I also have confirmation from the CBI that the IQD is no longer directly pegged to the USD but has been pegged to the SDR now since 2012 when Dr. Shabibi (then acting governor of the CBI) was in the process of the final steps of rolling out the lower denoms and coins. Well they are now on track to pick up the pieces and move forward with this once again.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Aggiedad77 – Article:  “Supreme religious authority: a battle of destiny and to speed up reforms to hold accountable corrupt”  Here comes another not so subliminal message from the Iraqi clerics to PM Abadi…we need to clean up the judiciary to ensure when those accused of corruption are brought to trial there is no question as to the honesty and integrity of the judges hearing the cases…we need to push for more speed with the reforms that are being laid before the Iraqi people…make good decisions, make them quick, and move forward.

Analysts: al-Maliki at war again after being convicted of the report of Mosul

http://www.dinarupdates.com/showthread.php?18174-Analysts-al-Maliki-at-war-again-after-being-convicted-of-the-report-of-Mosul&p=128045&viewfull=1#post128045

BGG Notes:

Maliki came back from Iran where he met with most of his most ardent Shia supporters (not all Shias support him – as before).

The Dawa party (and Maliki) “facially supports” these recent reforms called for by the Iraqi Clerics and the demonstrators (the people)… However, it’s a political tactic. He needs to look like..

“HE’S THE REFORMER”, or at least line himself up with the reforms…

Then there’s these rants blaming Erbil and Turkey for the fall of Mosul. Maliki must think no one remembers Barzani going to the press when Maliki wouldn’t listen about ISIS on the move.

There are articles out that affirm they put the SLC at Abadi’s disposal… again a weak showing of being “on the side of reforms” – not the “focus of the reforms”…

On the other hand Maliki is secretly attempting to subvert Abadi  everything he does.

It is worth noting – there are numerous OP ED’s out recently pointing out that if Maliki really wanted reforms he would have done so long ago.

Maliki is in now in FULL DAMAGE control…

The Friday before the Mosul Report was coming out – he went to Iran to gather support. This move seems to have (temporarily) worked. This caught me a little off-guard. I didn’t think he had that kind of support from Iran once they pulled their support from his bid for a 3rd term.

He did not come back until he had some assurance of some kind – though no guarantee, he must feel he has some potential for survival.

This just goes to show you. I was told some time ago he had deep support from some very unlikely sources. It appears both Sunni leadership was “on the take” as well as some level of support from the Iranian Mullahs. Though they don’t seem to support another Maliki term – they don’t appear ready to throw him overboard just yet either. There is no guarantee they won’t though.

They have even sent Gen Qassem Soleimani into Iraq south of Baghdad to orchestrate a “quelling” of the demonstrations and supposedly to secure Maliki’s safety. However, I am not convinced his ultimate safety is Soleimani’s underlying mission.

This report of Gen. Soleimani being there is limited in it’s scope (how many times/and how it is reported) – so I view this with a healthy dose of skepticism. Also – this frantic move to maintain control over Iraq may well backfire on them. It is becoming clearer and clearer they have some agenda. This is surely not lost on the Iraqi people. Overall, they are typically not happy about external influence – US or Iranian. They don’t like it. One good thing – all of this has forced the Iranians to play their hand in a more public fashion. Now they all know…

Abadi was quoted just recently as saying…

…”the prime minister does not think now in dissent nor undo the reforms, and will not seek to raise Maliki’s name from the list of defendants fall of Mosul.”…

Meaning – he won’t take Maliki’s name out of this report… it will play out.

I don’t see – with the mounting charges, how Maliki survives this barrage. Mosul, Halabja, embezzlement from the CBI, the Speicher massacre, the prison break, it goes on and on and on…

Further – my comments regarding “Maliki as gone” – are clearly “forward looking statements” and ARE IN PROGRESS. Visible progress has been made – for now, Maliki is NOT A VP and is NOT WELCOME in official GOI meetings. Party meetings are one thing. GOI is another thing entirely.

Rather than get caught up in who’s right and who’s wrong and what the details are – what about the WHY?? WHY did Abadi move now?? Was it demonstrators?? No – I doubt it very much. Maliki can think he has everyone right where he wants them – but keep in mind this whole campaign of reform was kicked off by the WB/IMF telling Iraq to get their AML (Anti-Money Laundering) and corruption under control (both issues pointed DIRECTLY AT MALIKI). They were given until Oct 1st to get an AML law put in place. It would probably help Abadi to have an Investment Law in place as well.

Thus far Abadi has responded. Judiciary is next. He needs to keep up the pressure...

[With all the news that we have read recently, was hoping to get…input on where we are, and where we’re headed.]  … Iraq is moving forward not backwards like some are implying. Yes, I would like to see things move a bit faster… I do have some positive news but I have not had a chance to verify it from additional sources. It is very positive.

Mnt Goat – As we know Maliki traveled to Iran with a delegation from his party. I believe his intent was to defect to Iran since he also traveled with his family. Once there he was asked to return to Iraq. He is now back in Iraq…  Abadi is moving quickly on the clean up of the Judiciary system to get the Judicial Reforms implemented. This will clear the way for any obstacles for many future reform objectives including bringing Maliki and his goons to their final demise thus stopping the stalling of needed legislation to complete the Reconciliation efforts agreed to be completed by mid September. These reforms are moving lightening fast.

Millionday – Article quote:  “The International Monetary Fund forecast on Wednesday, the Iraqi economy growth of 0.5% by the end of this year, thanks to expansion in the oil sector, and increase the contraction of economic activity in the non-oil.”  THE INCREASE OF NON-OIL IS ALL OTHER PRODUCTION OTHER THAN OIL CALCULATED WITH GDP.   THE IMF FIGURES REPRESENT THE ACTIVATED REFORM RESULTS…THE IMF IS HAPPY WITH THE REFORM PACKAGE AND HAS ADJUSTED ALONG WITH REFORMS PREDICTIONS OF GROWTH FOR THIS YEAR.

Seems that if they are using the dollar then we must still be supporting them financially. If that’s the case then they don’t really need to be concerned about the Dinar’s value.]  The CBI runs auctions and uses the dollar to balance the rate. From an RV standpoint it really doesn’t matter that they are using USD and IQD. All that matters is where the CBI sets the rate, because that determines how many USD we get for each Dinar.  Long story short – their use of USD is not a bad thing for us.

Al Maliki steps into Al Hashemi’s shoes

Iraqi Prime Minister Al Abadi still has a long way to go, but he is on the right track

It is a curious twist of irony that the man who pursued the now-fugitive former Iraqi vice-president Tariq Al Hashemi may suffer a similar fate. Iraq’s former premier, and former vice-president Nouri Al Maliki is currently in Iran, where some have suggested that he may never come back from as Baghdad seeks to investigate his role in the fall of Mosul to Daesh (the self-proclaimed Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant) last year. The move was a milestone for the terror group that allowed it to gain much support among radicals around the globe, as well as territory in Iraq and Syria…

Arthur – It should now be blatantly obvious that the one missing piece to the whole RV puzzle is the lack of a Hydrocarbon Law (HCL) in Iraq to release the budget funds to the provinces as well as a myriad other items that the HCL benefits. In light of where we are in the process we can now release breaking news gathered from sources within the process.  Without going into too much minute details, the delay in the full blown release of the next round of reforms was, among other things due to the instability in the political arena in the Kurdistan region. We have information that much of that has now reached a sufficient point of closure that the next round of reforms, including the HCL is now in imminent status with the signing of some documents and release by the PTB.  We are now in a countdown to the full blown economic reform introducing the Iraqi dinar to the international community.

BGG: says to jackflash101st Mahmoud already tried to resign.

BGG: Wow –

BGG: [the report] – emphasizes that what happened before the fall of Mosul was planned by al-Maliki in order to return to power and picking the third mandate until the door drop Sunni leaders in the western regions and the declaration of emergency law that allows him to control and put the Kurdistan region with a fait accompli,

BGG: which I said over and over – no one cared much (at the time) to listen…

BGG: WOW – as I read this whole report, it strikes me, the reason Maliki is coming back (or has – or will Thursday)… reference is made to the fact, if he stays gone his political influence ends QUICKLY.

Adam Montana – [For a long while I heard that over half of the HCL was done, but it is still a HCA.  Is it in front of Parliament or are the Tarriff Laws and people getting Fired more important?]  In my opinion, the HCL is going to be done as quick as the actual RV – it won’t get back in front of Parliament until they are sure they are going to pass it, and pass it quickly. I’m not the only one who believes the HCL is the last key to seeing the RV, which leads me to think that it will be a 1-2 deal.  Go HCL, then go RV.

tman23 – The NEW CBI website is extra special…and it is proof that change is about to occur… The Kurdistan Government secured the domain .KRG and has given until October 15th for all registered business to secure their domain…and then it is open to public. The reality of the IQD speculation is going to come to light… All we can do is wait and see if we speculated correctly and it delivers the ludicrous profits we all hope for. When the iisd…international institute for sustainable development…held by the general assembly of the united nations…finishes it’s meetings then the money will be released…this is what I was told…And that you can bank on!

Mnt Goat – WOW! I can hardly believe the news this week so far. So much news this week. Are we really on the track to finally see the project to delete the zeros from the currency and get our RV? Seems that way.  So the news of this week is the coming of the second set of reforms as Abadi promised. We are beginning to see these new reforms (phase II) take shape. Be patient I believe the redenomination meaning the deletion of the zeroes is in this second set of reforms.

BGG – Article quote:   “…the mini-financial committee set up by Parliament to follow up on money laundering in the central bank file or transfer large sums of money out of the country accuse Maliki of being behind it.  Stunning news…Maliki was involved in the largest money laundering operation in Iraq…they actually pinned the Money Laundering / Embezzlement directly from the CBI ON HIM!!
______________________________________________________________

Kaperoni – Article:  “Jubouri: The second package of reforms will contain a lot of detailed important decisions”   We can see now that these various committees are being formed to present to the PM reforms. And the second package appears to begin to including banking reforms..specifically mentioned here “guarantee deposits.” This brings me to the committee that met yesterday discussing the currency… We could be seeing the beginning of many steps to improve the economy, strengthen the banking system and improve the value of the currency. It will be interesting to watch these packages of reforms over the next several weeks and how they are implemented.

tman23 – BAGHDAD — The head of the committee investigating the fall of Mosul, Hakim al-Zamili has revealed that there is no evidence to suggest KRG President Massoud Barzani or former Iraqi Parliament Speaker Osama al-Nujaifi are accountable the fall of Mosul. It had been rumoured that Barzani and al-Nujaifi were included on the list, but al-Zamili rejected the claims. President Barzani insists that he warned former PM Nouri al-Maliki about the serious threats facing northern Iraq before IS launched their 2014 attacks, but was ignored.…….. Now we wait for the reports that will expose Maliki funneling Iraqi money to Tehran…….And that I assume will go over very well with Iraqi citizens and their fondness for Tehran

wmawhite – Well, well ,well…now the U.S. News and World Report is reporting the same thing:..“US News & World Report – Iraqi selling intl bonds and redominating currency…Reacting to the crisis, Iraq plans to issues bonds worth $7 billion — $5 billion in international bonds… Iraq also revived a long-delayed plan to redenominate the Iraqi dinar by knocking three zeroes off the nominal value of its banknotes, said Ihsan Shamran al-Yassiri, the head of Iraq Central Bank Issuing and Vaults Department”  the significance is that the IQD will be on the bond market. The bond market is twice the size of all of the world’s stock markets combined.   when the IQD is on the bond market the individual bonds are able to move freely.  This is the first step of the IQD reentering the world currency markets. Exciting and nice news. [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

tman23 – The new currency must come first as a prelude to the deletion of the 3 zeros from the currency… This is the biggest statement ever made yet so often overlooked! If they are speaking of new lower denoms, then they would need a rate other then 1166…and if they come first, then the 3 zero notes will carry high value before removing the 3 zeros at the exchange window…what is the time limit…72 hrs…7 days…who knows…but it is possible! The other scenario is seeing a 50,000 note come in October…if that hits the streets then it is not looking good no matter how anyone tries to spin it… Make no mistake…the world is on the edge of financial disasters… it is real and live! There are 33 consulates now opened in Erbil… All these countries are lining up at the feeding trough…IMO it is bigger then Iraq…something BIG is being prepared… and TIME IS A FACTOR!

Frank26 – The Monetary Reform remains in front of us.  It is our opinion that Dr. S [Shabibi] will be returning but we just don’t know when.  Again, IOO (In Our Opinion) the reforms will need an RI to start them.  From the article earlier today, “Let it Float”….this will put things in the hands of the international world and with this will come a faster rise in the rate…IOO.  With the actions being taken by PM Abadi in the form of his reforms expect to see the removal of many things, people, policies, laws, etc. he will make sure that nothing stands in the way of his reforms as we move forward.

Iraq: Report on fall of Mosul to ISIS calls for ex-PM Maliki to face trial

Others implicated include former acting defense minister and Mosul’s governor



Baghdad, Reuters—
Iraq’s parliament on Monday referred to the judiciary a report calling for the trial of former prime minister Nuri Al-Maliki and dozens of other top officials in connection with the fall of Mosul to the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) last year, two lawmakers said…

Breitling – They [the CBI] are telling business and local banks to stop doing business with Iran…the main reason why is they [Iran] are trying to pump US dollars into iraq because they know they [Iraq] are trying to add value to the dinar and they [Iran] know one of the tools to keep the value of the dinar down was the US dollar…it’s a back door confirmation of what the intent is of what Iraq wants to do.   They are cutting Iran off at the knees.  It’s one thing if the CBI can scoop up those dollars and put them into the reserves…that’s a good thing but there is so much that they’re having a problem with it.  And it will keep the value of the dinar down if they don’t tackle it.

BGG – Article quote:  “President of the parliamentary Economic Committee, Dr. Haitham al-Jabouri, an elite group of advisers, experts and academics…included within the plan of economic reforms and the issue of Iraqi dinar to float where participants set Of recommendations to be submitted to the Office of the Prime Minister.”  Keep in mind…though high powered – this is a group of experts who got together and talked things over…(not the Gov of CBI or PM)…and are (or have) forwarding their idea(s) to Abadi…I am not sure “float” is the singular though – it is not impossible they could be talking about the IQD “going up”…My point is this – the translation “float” could be easily better “characterized” as “going up”…That is the STUNNER…  [Do you think its possible they still haven’t decided how they are going to do this? meaning open to suggestions?]  For sure – they haven’t even fully regained control of their own CBI yet… anything is possible.  more than whatever it is they are saying – is the “weirdly coincidental” timing of these few articles coming out…right around this “period of reform” by Abadi…this seems to be a time of “rapid change” – so things could unfold very, very quickly.

It’s going to become a democratic country – Insurgents don’t like that hipocrasy as long as they work with the new government. Our boots on the ground is to protect a new justice that’s about to come to bear.  JUSTICE….and the reinstatement of many reforms.  [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

Round Table Chat w/BGG 8-17-15

Thanks to DinarRecaps.com for posting Round Table with BGG 

BGG: Jubouri: We have no right to delete any name from Mosul report

BGG: The head of the parliament Saleem al-Jubouri, on Monday, the House of Representatives does not have the right to delete any name mentioned in the report of the fall of Mosul, while pointing out that the report was written neutrally and did not exclude a paragraph or a name and did not succumb to pressure…

BGG: This piece was all about the mention of Maliki as the key figure in the report.

BGG: he and his people wanted his name off it and those currently in charge wouldn’t take his name off…

BGG: Very cool piece.

Robl: Do we know where Maliki is at the present? Iran, Iraq?

BGG: I am suspicious – he may be in Iran.

Of course not.  Six months ago, Abadi asked Dr. Shabibi to come back – but he said not under these conditions. Once I know the banks are secure and Aleck gone and get rid of Maliki’s son too…Dr. Shabibi said if you BUILD THIS FOR ME, I’ll be back…and I see that you’ve built what I want.  …SOCIAL MEDIA, YOUTUBE…you can find “keywords” there…when you see “KEYWORD” substitute DR.

wmawhite – The discussion about what type of notes are used on the streets is totally different from a discussion about the yet to be announced international exchange rate. There will be one international exchange rate for the IQD which is only applicable outside the country. That will in turn determine the type and size of the note to be used in country.  Folks, what you can take away from this discussion and that article is that the citizens are being told to expect changes in the currency they will use on the streets and why?  Because, the IQD will be put on the world currency market and the new value of the IQD will affect the type of note they will use inside Iraq. Plain and simple. [If the IQD does float, will there be value added & then it floats or will it float from 1166? If it floats from 1166 will there be demand for the IQD at that level?]  The CBI will never tell what they will do until after it is implemented. We will know the same time the rest of the world currency markets know.   [post 2 of 2]

So that article was telling the citizens that they should expect to have additional purchasing power equal to $75.00 where it used to be only $25.00…additionally, they are being reminded that the large notes will gradually go away…but they will have 3 times the purchasing power.  the CBI has over and over emphaized that the three zeros notes will continue to be legal tender…but has to [as the?] prices in the economy are reduced the need for the large notes go away and are replaced with LDs.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

THATS GREAT.  [And a major threat from the world bank.] WELL THE WORLD BANK HAS HISTORICALLY BEEN VERY LENIENT BUT THE PRESSURE IS ON TO SHOW ACTION.  [At least Abadi is taking it seriously.]  …HE IS AND HAS BEEN SERIOUS EVERYDAY SINCE HE TOOK OVER. HE HAD THE GOI AND PARLIAMENT WORK 5 MONTHS STRAIGHT WITHOUT A DAY OFF…SAID THEY WOULD NOT STOP PROGRESS TILL ALL IS COMPLETED INCLUDING ALL FINANCIAL REFORM INCLUDING THE NEW RATE.  […after waiting all these years i have never felt more promising of this currency especially in the last year.]  ME ALSO.  [post 2 of 2]

tlm724 – Article quote:  “Jubouri: The second package of reforms will contain detailed a lot of important decisions”  Quote:  “…al-Jubouri that the second package of reforms will contain a lot of detailed important decisions…that the second package of reforms will be more detailed, more mature and clearer than the first package, noting that this package will not be the last, but there will be a third package”   …so three packages of reforms, didn’t think they could all they need to do in just one.
______________________________________________________________

Aggiedad77 – Article: “Economist: deletion of zeros from the currency will reduce the dollar traded in the local market”  It would appear that we have a case of apples and oranges here…they don’t mix too well when put into a case…it was either designed for apples or for oranges, but as a mix, the lid just won’t close properly.  We even see the use of Dr. S [Shabibi] name here…saying he was ready four years ago but the project was delayed as they awaited the correct conditions…then we witnessed the ouster of Dr. S from his position as Governor of the CBI and we believe opportunities have been squandered ever since.  Well the time grows ripe again…will we see the return of Dr. S with the ouster today of keywords from his position as “acting” governor of the CBI…a job that apparently he hasn’t done too well in the eyes of PM Abadi.  Remember who appointed him…the removal of the 000’s was Dr. S’s baby…his project…but not in this manner or fashion…only the truth in action here will set any of us free…and as part of that truth keep in mind this is one person’s opinion…and he is not a part of the process that will bring Dr. S’s project to fruition.
______________________________________________________________

firefly – This is a VERY complicated process. Watch for events not dates.  […what events should we be watching for now?]   I’m looking for the IMPLEMENTATION of certain laws…Necessary for the reform to succeed without flaw.  [Mosal and Anbar, International Law, Tarriffs, Amnesty, Implementation…]  and a few more!  The anti money laundering law is crucial…Investment Law!  Tariffs will probably be after the fact IMO.   …the meeting last Saturday went extremely well!  Everything started moving at lightning speed on Sunday correct?  I’m focused on Abadi and the CBI…period… end of story.  [how much time you think…? I will not do dates or windows…but SOON has an entirely new meaning now IMO.

tlm724 – Article quote:  “Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi has sent two letters to the Integrity Commission to have this commission immediately begin investigating on a number of corruption files”   I have been waiting for this!  Quote:  “According to these sources Haider al-Abadi has emphasized on opening the corruption files of Ahmad Maliki, the son of Maliki. Orders for the arrest of former Iraqi Central Bank director Sanan al-Shabibi has also been ordered…”  that doesn’t mean it’s so but we need to watch for any further developments!  all institutions are under the spot light and lets not forget that Maliki appointed Ali Alak as CBI governor after Turki.

Millionday – Article quotes: “Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi has sent two letters to the Integrity Commission to have this commission immediately begin investigating on a number of corruption files regarding Nouri Maliki and Baha al-Araji.”  “Orders for the arrest of former Iraqi Central Bank director Sanan al-Shabibi has also been ordered, according to al-Baghdadiya.”  SO OBVIOUSLY WE WILL HAVE TO SEE WHERE THIS GOES — SO I WILL SAY THE ONLY WAY THIS CAN BE VERIFIED IS THROUGH ACTION.  [Did I read that correctly!? “Orders for the arrest of former Iraqi Central Bank director Sanan al-Shabibi has also been ordered…”   I thought Abadi helped Dr. S to get out of charges late last year?]   THE HEAD OF CBI IS APPOINTED BUT WE HAVE SEEN THIS BEFORE — WE WILL HAVE TO SEE WHERE IT GOES WITH SHABIBI — I CANNOT VERIFY THIS.

After his dismissal State law turned on Al-Maliki. It acknowledges responsibility for financial budgets and loss!!

Mp State law Nicole, the previous Government led by former Prime Minister and Vice-President of the Republic article Nouri al-Maliki responsible for strained state budget, at the same time revealing the presence of 300 in the State Constitution, have been distributed.

Al-kinani said in a statement: “the decisions of the Government and parliamentary reform has two dimensions, economic dimension because it represents a step towards addressing the SAG of the administrative and financial functioning of the State institutions including the Government itself, as well as another political dimension of such decisions will pave to cancel quota confessional that has made the country a standstill.”

“Prime Minister Haidar Al-Abbadi decisions timely and represent a genuine response to the will of the masses and in line with the directives of the good religious reference”…

BGG – [How long do you think it will take to remove Alak?]  that is the last piece of the puzzle – if you are asking me – doesn’t sound like long…there was also a SCATHING PIECE about Alak being a child and not at all qualified to be the Gov of the CBI.  Quite honestly – the happenings in Iraq are breathtaking…there is a lot going on all at once.  [The next week will be interesting to see how CBI plays out.]  the next week should be very interesting indeed.

Millionday – [Do you have any idea when they will implement the border tariffs and the International Bonds?] THEY HAVE STATED THIS MONTH BUT THE BEST WAY TO BE SURE IS TO WATCH IT HAPPEN IMO.
______________________________________________________________

firefly – IMO Abadi and Shabibi are in the same boat. Each is paddling in unison towards one goal.  Remember…it was Abadi that forced the courts to remove all previous charges brought on Shabibi from Maliki.  Shabibi has NEVER been OFFICIALLY replaced…just a bunch of proxy (fillers) for the position.  …according to the old constitution…the CBI Governor had to be voted in by Parliament.  Maliki to my understanding never had the power to appoint a permanent Governor.

Millionday – [So what part is yet to be done before they are ready to do the RV. I mean where do we fit in the scheme of things? ONE OF THE REPORTS WE HAD ANNOUNCED THAT WITH THE REFORM LAW BEING PASSED THE IMPORTANT LAWS WERE PASSED TOO — SO AT THIS POINT MANY THINGS ARE NOT BEING RELEASED — WE DONT HAVE A DATE OR RATE AND HAVE NOT HAD ONE OR A GUARANTEE BUT — SO MANY THINGS HAVE MOVED FORWARD FROM WHERE WE WERE — HUGE PROGRESS.
______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat – I believe Abadi has a new target – that of the Judiciary and Court System of Iraq.  Abadi must deal with the judiciary now in order to get some of these other laws passed and properly deal with much of the corruption.  So how do you judiciously deal with corruption in your ministries if the court system itself is corrupt?   …Iraq had to be sorted out by Abadi and priorities placed, a plan was designed. He is taking on one bite at a time and being cautious. He now has support (and continues) to have support of the citizens in this work that lays ahead. We know without a shadow of a doubt that there will be no RV without Amnesty and other laws. This is given facts to us. So to get these needed laws implemented Abadi must clean up the crocked judiciary system (as well as his ministers).  Abadi has gotten momentum from the protestors and so it is time now to move forward on these judicial reforms and we should all be jumping up and down with joy. We have waited soooo long for this to happen.

The Exchange Rate of Foreign Currency in Economic Feasibility Studies 

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.

Estimate the shadow price of foreign currency:…

Breitling – ...right now if you look how much dinar they have taken off the market and the way the economy is growing based on the past and how they have framed up the currency based on market rates, you’re looking at between .42 and .52 cents right now.  That is where it should be if they pulled the trigger today.  Remember, that’s manipulated.  That’s because of the amount of notes they have on the market.  I’m not saying they are going to come out at the range…that’s what we calculated.  that’s the value that we are looking at.  We are all at the mercy of the CBI.  We have to wait to see what’s going on.  [Post 2 of 2 ]
______________________________________________________________

Millionday – Article quote:     “…Sheikh Hamoudi, the need for the completion of the Investment Law and approval as soon as the activation of its importance in the national economy and promote development wheel…”  THERE ARE TEN LAWS IN PARLIAMENT FOR THE ECONOMIC REFORM… SO OBVIOUSLY THIS SEEMS TO BE WORTH THE WAIT — THIS IS ALL ANNOUNCED TO THE CITIZENS.
______________________________________________________________

Frank26 – Article:  “Re-investigation in the case of Dr. Shabibi with the CBI.”   That’s false…nobody is investigating Dr. S…It’s the judges who are being investigated because they took a payola from Maliki who stole everything.   He’s coming back to the Central Bank of Iraq. What is he going to do when he comes back? He’s going to fix the mess in the CBI.  Dr. S and A [Abadi] want the MR to flow but it has to be done correctly.  Dr. Shabibi said when he left – GIVE ME STABILITY. In order to see that date you want so badly.   The MR [Monetary Reform] is no where complete.  No dates. We’re not ready though a lot of the things are done. The MR is active, moving, constructive, amazing…but he will come back to clean up the mess.
______________________________________________________________

Millionday – Article quote:  “We are following the reforms of the judiciary and its importance,” noting that “the Federal Court Act based system Federal.”  THE FEDERAL COURT ACT WE READ WAS IN PARLIAMENT… THEY HAVE REACHED A POINT THAT WILL ALLOW THE VOTE OF THE VERY IMPORTANT FEDERAL COURT ACT SO THE REFORM MAY MOVE FORWARD.  SO THE ISSUE THAT WAS IN THE WAY IS NOW REPORTED TO BE RESOLVED — MORE GOOD NEWS.  THEY DID NOT HAVE ENOUGH TO REACH QUORUM UNTIL CHANGES WERE MADE SO NOW THEY FEEL AS THOUGH IT WILL REACH VOTE.
______________________________________________________________

BGG – [Do we know when Allaqs term is up at the CBI ? sept 8th or is it in Oct ?]  He is a “proxy appointment” so he will be gone when he is replaced. Not until…   [I thought alak was appointed official by ink or am i wrong?]   he is a “proxy” appointee – (by Maliki) and not an entirely legit appointment at that…they need a legitimate CBI Gov soon.
______________________________________________________________

Breitling – They are selling the bonds for US dollars and they are going to put them in their foreign currency reserve.  They are not using the bonds to take out dinar they are using the bond to take out dollars…those US dollars will not be in the Iraqi economy to compete against the dinar…  I don’t see anything in Iraq pushing or delaying the value of the dinar going up…they are going to float it up little bit by little bit…it’s a 2 year time frame. [Post 1 of 2]

firefly – Article quote:  “Obeidi said in a special statement to the Agency information that “reducing the central bank sales of the dollar and make it in the field need the truth to the citizens as well as international bonds to be issued by the central bank and the $ ten million dollars will provide Iraq’s hard currency and thus will protect the Iraqi dinar from fluctuations in the currency.”   So now they are talking INTERNATIONAL BONDS?  WOULD NOT SURPRISE ME IN THE LEAST IF THEY BYPASSED THE SOVEREIGN ENTIRELY.

Adam Montana – [The in-country bonds have been postponed to the end of September.  Can the RV still happen?   Also, the bonds will be purchased in Dinars but redeemed in USD.  What do you make of this?]    1. YES  2. YES  3. …in my opinion, it doesn’t matter.

BGG – [Have you heard any more about M [Maliki] fleeing into Iran a day or so ago?]   I did hear about that – but not for sure if it is accurate. Could easily just be “noise” in the media… however, if he thinks this will go badly for him – he will ROLL.  …bank on it – he will never face a trial in Iraq (willingly).

tman23 – Emerging market bonds have been taking a beating last few weeks… NOBODY WANTS TO TOUCH THEM NOW! Good luck Iraq! Canada announced it is officially in a recession… China stock market is taking a whooping and chaos is in the streets… Japan market is taking a beating… US market lost close to 470 today… And as I was told… the money will move after the post 2015 summit…Summit starts the 14th…  The amount to be invested in world infrastructure is being raised from billions to trillions… None of this is made up …it is financial world economic facts… live and in print…. That said… hopefully they plan on IQD manipulation in our speculative favor.

Mnt Goat – ..not only is the CBI making an effort to prevent money laundering but now we see the GOI (under Abadi’s direction) finally stepping it up and going after the culprits…beginning the effort to clean up the CBI and its corruption as part of his phase III reforms. I personally do not think that ANY one event is “holding up” the revaluation process but simply Iraq it not yet ready. When will they be ready?  WHEN EVERYTHING IS IN PLACE AND THEY (IRAQ, UN and USA) FEEL COMFORTABLE WITH THEIR SITUATION!

Kaperoni – It all comes down to parliament and laws.  When they get around to passing these important laws for investors they will begin to create a market economy.  And hopefully, the dinar will rise as a result.

BGG – The rats are lining up on one side – Abadi on the other, I think Mahmoud will be crushed before this is over…Sistani has great influence with the PMU’s also. I don’t think Ameri (or Mahmoud) will win this fight. The political corruption MUST END – the WB/IMF is INSISTENT – and these jokers just can’t manage to leave the trough. They (Allawi – Maliki – Mutlaq and others) are clearly showing themselves as defending their corrupt way of life.   I do think Abadi will work with Parliament to get this solved. He is OBVIOUSLY serious about dealing with their corrupt issues.

NY and London.  I see real intent here as a real possibility…that the dinar needs a change in status to allow ALL of the above?   [post 2 of 2]

Adam Montana – I have good news and bad news today.  The bad news first – no HCL, no RV. Sorry.  The good news is…Look for the headlines on ISIS and turmoil in Iraq.   You aren’t seeing many, are you? That’s right! Because things are actually going VERY well over there right now, and this is exactly the situation we want to be in before the HCL is passed and they can successfully make a big change to the value of their currency. Although I am cautiously optimistic, this looks to me like the “quiet before the storm”. Let’s go, Iraq! Time to get this show on the road!

Memphis – “A delegation [of] senior government officials and experts [is] scheduled to travel to the United States and Britain next week to discuss the issue of Iraq sovereign bonds.  The delegation will include [the] Governor of the Central Bank, [various] government officials [most notably the] ministers of the [departments of] oil and finance and consultants and experts in economic and financial affairs.  …discuss the process of issuing sovereign government bonds in the global financial market.”  A few things we can conclude from this with confidence:  1) They will be traveling to the two key money centers of the world. 2) The names listed for this trip are at the top of the food chain for Iraqi finance.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Protests and uprisings against the government and in less than 30 days…24 hr a day electricity will be turned on. So what was the problem before this…Not enough fuel to run generators? Not enough money to buy fuel? Amazing…

______________________________________________________________

Kaperoni – So, IMO  this is going to be gradual just as the IMF stated.  It also confirms there is no LOP (which would be an entire replacement at the same time over a short period of time). You also would not need to reduce the note count first if your going to LOP, you simply introduce the new denominations.  So,  if they reduce the physical note count from 4 billion to around a 1.5 billion, they can substantial consolidate the physical Iraqi dinar. Though it does not reduce the money supply, it may make it much easier for them to transition to smaller denominations once the float begins (ie 50, 100, 200 early 2017). I guess we wait and see.  [post 2 of 2]

Kaperoni – Raising the value gradually does chop the zeros off the exchange rate…just not overnight.  There is no chance of the dinar ever appreciating to a 1 to $1 rate overnight (RV)...it’s not mathematically possible with around 32 trillion dinar or more in circulation. Not to mention, the CBI has never mentioned one time about introducing an entire set of new bills (ie fils, 1, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100) at one time.  In  fact, all we have ever seen is the mention of a few notes and several years to complete.  And most recently, it was stated that the 50, 100, and 200 would come out around the first of 2017.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Real reform is the reform of the judicial system

A spokesman for the Office Saad al-Hadithi In a press statement today: “The Iraqi constitution did not give the President of the Council of Ministers, or cabinet met for the right to dismiss the head of the judiciary or interference in the affairs of the judiciary,” noting that “from the jurisdiction of the legislative and judicial branches of government.”…

Nice that it points out “looking into the Shabibi accusations”… GREAT!!   the reason being – it is the very CORE of why we are still here.  fix that – this thing is over.  [How long after M is gone will it be before an RV will take place?]  Iraq needs value BAD!!  it can be quick.

Hub – …they said they wanted to develop the social sections of the economy in the next 4 years this is about right…but for a country like iraq to only see a 50% increase in the next 15 years is a very slow growth with their resources, then they want to have experts come in to help set up the infrastructures for iraq, now how in the world will 1166 to 1 currency entice any growth or any experts to come to iraq to straighten them out.  …with out a tradable, non-exotic recognized currency none of this will be accomplished.  as far as if it is a economy growth or isx, i am not sure…but to obtain 50% in 15 years with oil, gold, ag, and all the other stuff seems to be very conservative…they need to get off  high center and get after it.   …the simplistic economy lesson is how much does it take to by a coke. in us dollars we take $1.50, canada 1.70, in mexico 15 pesos, in iraq 100 dinar so the answer is ok go to the bank or store or dairy queen and buy a coke with dinar…nope, wont work, so this is the dilemma for iraq…make your money worth something.

Political sources: al-Maliki, trying to return to Parliament in the hope “immunity” and “challenged” in front of the judiciary in the abolition of office

Political sources revealed that former Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki is trying to escape from prosecution in the case of the fall of Mosul through his quest to return to Parliament in anticipation of immunity on the one hand and appeal to the judiciary to cancel his other hand.

This comes in conjunction with the description of Abbas Moussawi, media adviser to the owners in a statement to the London-based Asharq al-Awsat last sacking from the post of Vice President of the Republic is unconstitutional, noting that such impeachment must be subject to the law…

BGG – Quote:  “...Maliki is poised to lose his ceremonial post as one of Iraq’s three vice presidents under a series of reforms that the current prime minister, Haider al-Abadi, is trying to enact.”   Or probably already has “lost his position”…there is NO WAY the WB/IMF will let this get overturned – Abadi will get worldwide support for this… it shows the very character of the struggle going on in Iraq RIGHT NOW.  I don’t think Maliki will survive this onslaught…AND I think if anyone can “dethrone” Maliki from in front of the PMU – IT’S SISTANI!!  He’s the driving force behind the support Abadi has and is the catalyst for these reforms!!   [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat – This is my personal theory on what the CBI is ultimately is going to do – I believe they know they must float the value of the IQD and gradually let it rise. They will NOT ATTEMPT to push out a very high rate right (i.e. $3.91) initially due to the money laundering (the current CBI governor has not controlled) and the terrorists activities. The CBI does talk about starting the project to delete the zeros sometime in very early 2016. What will they ultimately do? Again my personal belief is strong that Abadi is going to clean up the CBI too and Dr Shabibi will be back as the governor of the CBI to continue his original plan as they are almost now back on track.  [post 2 of 2]

BGG – Article quote:  “Dozens of people demonstrated on Monday in front of the Supreme Judicial Council building in Baghdad to demand the resignation of President of the Council Medhat al-Mahmoud…”  …once Medhat al-Mahmoud is gone – Maliki has ZERO fall back position. It’s really, really bad news for the Shia/thug/hardliners…these protests asking for Medhat’s removal are a big deal – I guess maybe the biggest deal of the day.
______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat – The CBI knows it must make some kind of move in the near future to go international. The pressure is enormous to do something.  So again we are seeing many articles published on debates going on about changing the dinar exchange rate.  Last week…they were debating the pros and cons of FLOATING the dinar rate and the disparity of the Iraqi dinar to other neighboring countries.  So what will they actually do?  Iraq simply can not continue to do business and move forward without a realistic currency value.  We know if they finally roll out to the international exchanges and then float the currency at a low beginning rate, it  will not be long before we see some significant value increase.  We will all then be subject to the international market rate at the banks at this point and so we can then go exchange our dinar anytime we wish and at any rate.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Shredd – Article quote:  “…which will be an important factor in creating excellent investment environment and meet the aspiration of all parties.”  That is for sure. When the investment laws are passed, that will truly open opportunities for investors who have been waiting for protections.  The banking side has come a long way regarding balances and conversion protections, and now with these laws passed, will position Iraq for some much needed stimulus. Investment = lending = borrowing = commerce = jobs = revenue = taxes.  That’s a win/win!

Meet the man trying to bring Iraq back from the brink

Riot policemen stand in front of protesters during demonstration against the poor quality of basic services, power outages and calling for trial of corrupt politicians in Baghdad

On August 16, an Iraqi parliamentary report named Iraq’s former prime minister, Nouri al-Maliki, among dozens of officials responsible for the collapse of security forces and the fall of Mosul to Islamic State militants last summer. In his eight years as premier, corruption thrived and Maliki repeatedly purged the Iraqi security forces of those he suspected of disloyalty.

Iraqis now hope that Maliki and other officials will stand trial and be held to account for why militants were able to capture the northern city with so little resistance. (Maliki dismissed the parliamentary investigation as “worthless,” and he blamed Mosul’s fall on a conspiracy by Turkish and Kurdish leaders.)…

tman23 – BAGHDAD – Coordinators of recent protests in provinces throughout Iraq are fearing for their lives, as four have already been assassinated. Al Jazeera claimed that the victims were assassinated in retaliation for their role in the demonstrations. Iraqi civil rights activis Odai Zaydi, claimed that political parties are responsible for the assassinations “as they are originally against the establishment of a democratic government in Iraq.”……….  EXACTLY WHY……Laws are contested and delayed…. The whole idea of Iraq was a democracy in the Middle East……but the hardliners favor “regimes”……..And as Abadi said…. it may cost him his life BUT he is moving forward with reforms and democracy for the citizens of Iraq.

______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat – I will say that we are heading for a great window of opportunity for an RV come mid September and onward. Abadi’s government had until mid September to implement the needed laws to support the necessary reforms, as these reforms are part of his promises made during the negotiations to allow him to take control of the government and to be seated as the new prime minister.  Also, resulting from a second Paris Conference in mid June, they also gave him 90 more days to complete the reforms (on corruption) and get in place other laws to support the economy (i.e Investment law and Banking laws, anti-Laundering laws, etc).  I believe that if he can be successful we may also see the currency reform finally implemented.  Again I am telling you the RV is a by-product of this reform process and not the means in itself.  They desperately need these reforms prior to any RV.

This is HUGE for insuring the downturn of Maliki.  So why is money laundering so important all of a sudden? Do they want billions of dinar going into the wrong hands when the value increases?

House of Representatives voted unanimously on a law on political parties

Long-Presse / Baghdad – The voice of the Iraqi Council of Representatives on Thursday unanimously passed a bill on political parties after 13 years on regime change in Iraq.

A parliamentary source said in an interview to the (long-Presse), “The House of Representatives voted during its 16th legislative term of the first second legislative year, which was held today, on the draft political parties law.”

The source, who asked not to be named, said: “vote is unanimous.”…

American Contractor – Washingston Post Article 8/18/15 Quote:  “Iraq also revived a long-delayed plan to redenominate the Iraqi dinar by knocking three zeroes off the nominal value of its banknotes, said Ihsan Shamran al-Yassiri, the head of Iraq Central Bank Issuing and Vaults Department. The plan is set to be implemented by 2017 after restructuring dinar by issuing two large banknotes – a 50,000 dinar note before the end of this year and 100,000 banknote next year – and canceling small ones.”   Small Iraq Bank notes will be canceled soon says Central Bank…the 250, 500, and 1,000 bank notes will be removed…there are not that many in circulation.

Investment Law is crucial as well.  Those 3 effect the Global economy. Yes many laws are still needing implementation for the nation of Iraq but not for the monetary reform.  HCL is very much needed for IRAQ!  Could it be put off?

I assure you the process is already in play. The men on the chess board are about to be moved around.  So this week looks very good. I expect announcements of some of the recent reforms and Reconciliation legislation signed into law. Also I suspect this week or in the next couple weeks, we are once again some movement into a fantastic window of opportunity to see a change in the currency value of Iraq...I feel we are at the very near end to this RV saga.  [post 2 of 2]

Analysts: al-Maliki at war again after being convicted of the report of Mosul

http://www.dinarupdates.com/showthread.php?18174-Analysts-al-Maliki-at-war-again-after-being-convicted-of-the-report-of-Mosul&p=128045&viewfull=1#post128045

BGG Notes:

Maliki came back from Iran where he met with most of his most ardent Shia supporters (not all Shias support him – as before).

The Dawa party (and Maliki) “facially supports” these recent reforms called for by the Iraqi Clerics and the demonstrators (the people)… However, it’s a political tactic. He needs to look like..

“HE’S THE REFORMER”, or at least line himself up with the reforms…

Then there’s these rants blaming Erbil and Turkey for the fall of Mosul. Maliki must think no one remembers Barzani going to the press when Maliki wouldn’t listen about ISIS on the move.

There are articles out that affirm they put the SLC at Abadi’s disposal… again a weak showing of being “on the side of reforms” – not the “focus of the reforms”…

On the other hand Maliki is secretly attempting to subvert Abadi  everything he does.

It is worth noting – there are numerous OP ED’s out recently pointing out that if Maliki really wanted reforms he would have done so long ago.

Maliki is in now in FULL DAMAGE control…

The Friday before the Mosul Report was coming out – he went to Iran to gather support. This move seems to have (temporarily) worked. This caught me a little off-guard. I didn’t think he had that kind of support from Iran once they pulled their support from his bid for a 3rd term.

He did not come back until he had some assurance of some kind – though no guarantee, he must feel he has some potential for survival.

This just goes to show you. I was told some time ago he had deep support from some very unlikely sources. It appears both Sunni leadership was “on the take” as well as some level of support from the Iranian Mullahs. Though they don’t seem to support another Maliki term – they don’t appear ready to throw him overboard just yet either. There is no guarantee they won’t though.

They have even sent Gen Qassem Soleimani into Iraq south of Baghdad to orchestrate a “quelling” of the demonstrations and supposedly to secure Maliki’s safety. However, I am not convinced his ultimate safety is Soleimani’s underlying mission.

This report of Gen. Soleimani being there is limited in it’s scope (how many times/and how it is reported) – so I view this with a healthy dose of skepticism. Also – this frantic move to maintain control over Iraq may well backfire on them. It is becoming clearer and clearer they have some agenda. This is surely not lost on the Iraqi people. Overall, they are typically not happy about external influence – US or Iranian. They don’t like it. One good thing – all of this has forced the Iranians to play their hand in a more public fashion. Now they all know…

Abadi was quoted just recently as saying…

…”the prime minister does not think now in dissent nor undo the reforms, and will not seek to raise Maliki’s name from the list of defendants fall of Mosul.”…

Meaning – he won’t take Maliki’s name out of this report… it will play out.

I don’t see – with the mounting charges, how Maliki survives this barrage. Mosul, Halabja, embezzlement from the CBI, the Speicher massacre, the prison break, it goes on and on and on…

Further – my comments regarding “Maliki as gone” – are clearly “forward looking statements” and ARE IN PROGRESS. Visible progress has been made – for now, Maliki is NOT A VP and is NOT WELCOME in official GOI meetings. Party meetings are one thing. GOI is another thing entirely.

Rather than get caught up in who’s right and who’s wrong and what the details are – what about the WHY?? WHY did Abadi move now?? Was it demonstrators?? No – I doubt it very much. Maliki can think he has everyone right where he wants them – but keep in mind this whole campaign of reform was kicked off by the WB/IMF telling Iraq to get their AML (Anti-Money Laundering) and corruption under control (both issues pointed DIRECTLY AT MALIKI). They were given until Oct 1st to get an AML law put in place. It would probably help Abadi to have an Investment Law in place as well.

Thus far Abadi has responded. Judiciary is next. He needs to keep up the pressure...

BGG – [How will $40 oil affect an RV…at one time it was said that $100 oil was needed?]   IMHO – not at all, I don’t agree with $100 oil being required. In fact, if one ascribes to a “short move” or “emergency currency reform” as a short term budget deficit “bridge” – then $40 oil is not a problem – but a catalyst for change.

[With all the news that we have read recently, was hoping to get…input on where we are, and where we’re headed.]  … Iraq is moving forward not backwards like some are implying. Yes, I would like to see things move a bit faster… I do have some positive news but I have not had a chance to verify it from additional sources. It is very positive.
______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat – As we know Maliki traveled to Iran with a delegation from his party. I believe his intent was to defect to Iran since he also traveled with his family. Once there he was asked to return to Iraq. He is now back in Iraq…  Abadi is moving quickly on the clean up of the Judiciary system to get the Judicial Reforms implemented. This will clear the way for any obstacles for many future reform objectives including bringing Maliki and his goons to their final demise thus stopping the stalling of needed legislation to complete the Reconciliation efforts agreed to be completed by mid September. These reforms are moving lightening fast.

Millionday – Article quote:  “The International Monetary Fund forecast on Wednesday, the Iraqi economy growth of 0.5% by the end of this year, thanks to expansion in the oil sector, and increase the contraction of economic activity in the non-oil.”  THE INCREASE OF NON-OIL IS ALL OTHER PRODUCTION OTHER THAN OIL CALCULATED WITH GDP.   THE IMF FIGURES REPRESENT THE ACTIVATED REFORM RESULTS…THE IMF IS HAPPY WITH THE REFORM PACKAGE AND HAS ADJUSTED ALONG WITH REFORMS PREDICTIONS OF GROWTH FOR THIS YEAR.

Seems that if they are using the dollar then we must still be supporting them financially. If that’s the case then they don’t really need to be concerned about the Dinar’s value.]  The CBI runs auctions and uses the dollar to balance the rate. From an RV standpoint it really doesn’t matter that they are using USD and IQD. All that matters is where the CBI sets the rate, because that determines how many USD we get for each Dinar.  Long story short – their use of USD is not a bad thing for us.

Al Maliki steps into Al Hashemi’s shoes

Iraqi Prime Minister Al Abadi still has a long way to go, but he is on the right track

It is a curious twist of irony that the man who pursued the now-fugitive former Iraqi vice-president Tariq Al Hashemi may suffer a similar fate. Iraq’s former premier, and former vice-president Nouri Al Maliki is currently in Iran, where some have suggested that he may never come back from as Baghdad seeks to investigate his role in the fall of Mosul to Daesh (the self-proclaimed Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant) last year. The move was a milestone for the terror group that allowed it to gain much support among radicals around the globe, as well as territory in Iraq and Syria…

Arthur – It should now be blatantly obvious that the one missing piece to the whole RV puzzle is the lack of a Hydrocarbon Law (HCL) in Iraq to release the budget funds to the provinces as well as a myriad other items that the HCL benefits. In light of where we are in the process we can now release breaking news gathered from sources within the process.  Without going into too much minute details, the delay in the full blown release of the next round of reforms was, among other things due to the instability in the political arena in the Kurdistan region. We have information that much of that has now reached a sufficient point of closure that the next round of reforms, including the HCL is now in imminent status with the signing of some documents and release by the PTB.  We are now in a countdown to the full blown economic reform introducing the Iraqi dinar to the international community.

BGG: Wow –

BGG: [the report] – emphasizes that what happened before the fall of Mosul was planned by al-Maliki in order to return to power and picking the third mandate until the door drop Sunni leaders in the western regions and the declaration of emergency law that allows him to control and put the Kurdistan region with a fait accompli,

BGG: which I said over and over – no one cared much (at the time) to listen…

BGG: WOW – as I read this whole report, it strikes me, the reason Maliki is coming back (or has – or will Thursday)… reference is made to the fact, if he stays gone his political influence ends QUICKLY.

tman23 – Actually what we are seeing is not at all surprising… June was the end of the road…and we are witnessing the change of dynamics in warp speed…There is a time limit and it is Oct 1st… But there are a host of world events tied into this timeline …which are quite coincidental if you believe in such! …there are so many documents that were set with this date from different resources.

BGG – Article quote:   “…the mini-financial committee set up by Parliament to follow up on money laundering in the central bank file or transfer large sums of money out of the country accuse Maliki of being behind it.  Stunning news…Maliki was involved in the largest money laundering operation in Iraq…they actually pinned the Money Laundering / Embezzlement directly from the CBI ON HIM!!

Kaperoni – Article:  “Jubouri: The second package of reforms will contain a lot of detailed important decisions”   We can see now that these various committees are being formed to present to the PM reforms. And the second package appears to begin to including banking reforms..specifically mentioned here “guarantee deposits.” This brings me to the committee that met yesterday discussing the currency… We could be seeing the beginning of many steps to improve the economy, strengthen the banking system and improve the value of the currency. It will be interesting to watch these packages of reforms over the next several weeks and how they are implemented.

tman23 – BAGHDAD — The head of the committee investigating the fall of Mosul, Hakim al-Zamili has revealed that there is no evidence to suggest KRG President Massoud Barzani or former Iraqi Parliament Speaker Osama al-Nujaifi are accountable the fall of Mosul. It had been rumoured that Barzani and al-Nujaifi were included on the list, but al-Zamili rejected the claims. President Barzani insists that he warned former PM Nouri al-Maliki about the serious threats facing northern Iraq before IS launched their 2014 attacks, but was ignored.…….. Now we wait for the reports that will expose Maliki funneling Iraqi money to Tehran…….And that I assume will go over very well with Iraqi citizens and their fondness for Tehran

wmawhite – Well, well ,well…now the U.S. News and World Report is reporting the same thing:..“US News & World Report – Iraqi selling intl bonds and redominating currency…Reacting to the crisis, Iraq plans to issues bonds worth $7 billion — $5 billion in international bonds… Iraq also revived a long-delayed plan to redenominate the Iraqi dinar by knocking three zeroes off the nominal value of its banknotes, said Ihsan Shamran al-Yassiri, the head of Iraq Central Bank Issuing and Vaults Department”  the significance is that the IQD will be on the bond market. The bond market is twice the size of all of the world’s stock markets combined.   when the IQD is on the bond market the individual bonds are able to move freely.  This is the first step of the IQD reentering the world currency markets. Exciting and nice news. [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

tman23 – The new currency must come first as a prelude to the deletion of the 3 zeros from the currency… This is the biggest statement ever made yet so often overlooked! If they are speaking of new lower denoms, then they would need a rate other then 1166…and if they come first, then the 3 zero notes will carry high value before removing the 3 zeros at the exchange window…what is the time limit…72 hrs…7 days…who knows…but it is possible! The other scenario is seeing a 50,000 note come in October…if that hits the streets then it is not looking good no matter how anyone tries to spin it… Make no mistake…the world is on the edge of financial disasters… it is real and live! There are 33 consulates now opened in Erbil… All these countries are lining up at the feeding trough…IMO it is bigger then Iraq…something BIG is being prepared… and TIME IS A FACTOR!

Frank26 – The Monetary Reform remains in front of us.  It is our opinion that Dr. S [Shabibi] will be returning but we just don’t know when.  Again, IOO (In Our Opinion) the reforms will need an RI to start them.  From the article earlier today, “Let it Float”….this will put things in the hands of the international world and with this will come a faster rise in the rate…IOO.  With the actions being taken by PM Abadi in the form of his reforms expect to see the removal of many things, people, policies, laws, etc. he will make sure that nothing stands in the way of his reforms as we move forward.

Iraq: Report on fall of Mosul to ISIS calls for ex-PM Maliki to face trial

Others implicated include former acting defense minister and Mosul’s governor



Baghdad, Reuters—
Iraq’s parliament on Monday referred to the judiciary a report calling for the trial of former prime minister Nuri Al-Maliki and dozens of other top officials in connection with the fall of Mosul to the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) last year, two lawmakers said…

Breitling – They [the CBI] are telling business and local banks to stop doing business with Iran…the main reason why is they [Iran] are trying to pump US dollars into iraq because they know they [Iraq] are trying to add value to the dinar and they [Iran] know one of the tools to keep the value of the dinar down was the US dollar…it’s a back door confirmation of what the intent is of what Iraq wants to do.   They are cutting Iran off at the knees.  It’s one thing if the CBI can scoop up those dollars and put them into the reserves…that’s a good thing but there is so much that they’re having a problem with it.  And it will keep the value of the dinar down if they don’t tackle it.

It’s going to become a democratic country – Insurgents don’t like that hipocrasy as long as they work with the new government. Our boots on the ground is to protect a new justice that’s about to come to bear.  JUSTICE….and the reinstatement of many reforms.  [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

Round Table Chat w/BGG 8-17-15

Thanks to DinarRecaps.com for posting Round Table with BGG 

BGG: Jubouri: We have no right to delete any name from Mosul report

BGG: The head of the parliament Saleem al-Jubouri, on Monday, the House of Representatives does not have the right to delete any name mentioned in the report of the fall of Mosul, while pointing out that the report was written neutrally and did not exclude a paragraph or a name and did not succumb to pressure…

BGG: This piece was all about the mention of Maliki as the key figure in the report.

BGG: he and his people wanted his name off it and those currently in charge wouldn’t take his name off…

BGG: Very cool piece.

Robl: Do we know where Maliki is at the present? Iran, Iraq?

BGG: I am suspicious – he may be in Iran.

Of course not.  Six months ago, Abadi asked Dr. Shabibi to come back – but he said not under these conditions. Once I know the banks are secure and Aleck gone and get rid of Maliki’s son too…Dr. Shabibi said if you BUILD THIS FOR ME, I’ll be back…and I see that you’ve built what I want.  …SOCIAL MEDIA, YOUTUBE…you can find “keywords” there…when you see “KEYWORD” substitute DR.

wmawhite – The discussion about what type of notes are used on the streets is totally different from a discussion about the yet to be announced international exchange rate. There will be one international exchange rate for the IQD which is only applicable outside the country. That will in turn determine the type and size of the note to be used in country.  Folks, what you can take away from this discussion and that article is that the citizens are being told to expect changes in the currency they will use on the streets and why?  Because, the IQD will be put on the world currency market and the new value of the IQD will affect the type of note they will use inside Iraq. Plain and simple. [If the IQD does float, will there be value added & then it floats or will it float from 1166? If it floats from 1166 will there be demand for the IQD at that level?]  The CBI will never tell what they will do until after it is implemented. We will know the same time the rest of the world currency markets know.   [post 2 of 2]

So that article was telling the citizens that they should expect to have additional purchasing power equal to $75.00 where it used to be only $25.00…additionally, they are being reminded that the large notes will gradually go away…but they will have 3 times the purchasing power.  the CBI has over and over emphaized that the three zeros notes will continue to be legal tender…but has to [as the?] prices in the economy are reduced the need for the large notes go away and are replaced with LDs.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Aggiedad77 – Article: “Economist: deletion of zeros from the currency will reduce the dollar traded in the local market”  It would appear that we have a case of apples and oranges here…they don’t mix too well when put into a case…it was either designed for apples or for oranges, but as a mix, the lid just won’t close properly.  We even see the use of Dr. S [Shabibi] name here…saying he was ready four years ago but the project was delayed as they awaited the correct conditions…then we witnessed the ouster of Dr. S from his position as Governor of the CBI and we believe opportunities have been squandered ever since.  Well the time grows ripe again…will we see the return of Dr. S with the ouster today of keywords from his position as “acting” governor of the CBI…a job that apparently he hasn’t done too well in the eyes of PM Abadi.  Remember who appointed him…the removal of the 000’s was Dr. S’s baby…his project…but not in this manner or fashion…only the truth in action here will set any of us free…and as part of that truth keep in mind this is one person’s opinion…and he is not a part of the process that will bring Dr. S’s project to fruition.

firefly – This is a VERY complicated process. Watch for events not dates.  […what events should we be watching for now?]   I’m looking for the IMPLEMENTATION of certain laws…Necessary for the reform to succeed without flaw.  [Mosal and Anbar, International Law, Tarriffs, Amnesty, Implementation…]  and a few more!  The anti money laundering law is crucial…Investment Law!  Tariffs will probably be after the fact IMO.   …the meeting last Saturday went extremely well!  Everything started moving at lightning speed on Sunday correct?  I’m focused on Abadi and the CBI…period… end of story.  [how much time you think…? I will not do dates or windows…but SOON has an entirely new meaning now IMO.

tlm724 – Article quote:  “Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi has sent two letters to the Integrity Commission to have this commission immediately begin investigating on a number of corruption files”   I have been waiting for this!  Quote:  “According to these sources Haider al-Abadi has emphasized on opening the corruption files of Ahmad Maliki, the son of Maliki. Orders for the arrest of former Iraqi Central Bank director Sanan al-Shabibi has also been ordered…”  that doesn’t mean it’s so but we need to watch for any further developments!  all institutions are under the spot light and lets not forget that Maliki appointed Ali Alak as CBI governor after Turki.

Millionday – Article quotes: “Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi has sent two letters to the Integrity Commission to have this commission immediately begin investigating on a number of corruption files regarding Nouri Maliki and Baha al-Araji.”  “Orders for the arrest of former Iraqi Central Bank director Sanan al-Shabibi has also been ordered, according to al-Baghdadiya.”  SO OBVIOUSLY WE WILL HAVE TO SEE WHERE THIS GOES — SO I WILL SAY THE ONLY WAY THIS CAN BE VERIFIED IS THROUGH ACTION.  [Did I read that correctly!? “Orders for the arrest of former Iraqi Central Bank director Sanan al-Shabibi has also been ordered…”   I thought Abadi helped Dr. S to get out of charges late last year?]   THE HEAD OF CBI IS APPOINTED BUT WE HAVE SEEN THIS BEFORE — WE WILL HAVE TO SEE WHERE IT GOES WITH SHABIBI — I CANNOT VERIFY THIS.

After his dismissal State law turned on Al-Maliki. It acknowledges responsibility for financial budgets and loss!!

Mp State law Nicole, the previous Government led by former Prime Minister and Vice-President of the Republic article Nouri al-Maliki responsible for strained state budget, at the same time revealing the presence of 300 in the State Constitution, have been distributed.

Al-kinani said in a statement: “the decisions of the Government and parliamentary reform has two dimensions, economic dimension because it represents a step towards addressing the SAG of the administrative and financial functioning of the State institutions including the Government itself, as well as another political dimension of such decisions will pave to cancel quota confessional that has made the country a standstill.”

“Prime Minister Haidar Al-Abbadi decisions timely and represent a genuine response to the will of the masses and in line with the directives of the good religious reference”…

BGG – [How long do you think it will take to remove Alak?]  that is the last piece of the puzzle – if you are asking me – doesn’t sound like long…there was also a SCATHING PIECE about Alak being a child and not at all qualified to be the Gov of the CBI.  Quite honestly – the happenings in Iraq are breathtaking…there is a lot going on all at once.  [The next week will be interesting to see how CBI plays out.]  the next week should be very interesting indeed.

firefly – IMO Abadi and Shabibi are in the same boat. Each is paddling in unison towards one goal.  Remember…it was Abadi that forced the courts to remove all previous charges brought on Shabibi from Maliki.  Shabibi has NEVER been OFFICIALLY replaced…just a bunch of proxy (fillers) for the position.  …according to the old constitution…the CBI Governor had to be voted in by Parliament.  Maliki to my understanding never had the power to appoint a permanent Governor.

Millionday – [So what part is yet to be done before they are ready to do the RV. I mean where do we fit in the scheme of things? ONE OF THE REPORTS WE HAD ANNOUNCED THAT WITH THE REFORM LAW BEING PASSED THE IMPORTANT LAWS WERE PASSED TOO — SO AT THIS POINT MANY THINGS ARE NOT BEING RELEASED — WE DONT HAVE A DATE OR RATE AND HAVE NOT HAD ONE OR A GUARANTEE BUT — SO MANY THINGS HAVE MOVED FORWARD FROM WHERE WE WERE — HUGE PROGRESS.
______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat – I believe Abadi has a new target – that of the Judiciary and Court System of Iraq.  Abadi must deal with the judiciary now in order to get some of these other laws passed and properly deal with much of the corruption.  So how do you judiciously deal with corruption in your ministries if the court system itself is corrupt?   …Iraq had to be sorted out by Abadi and priorities placed, a plan was designed. He is taking on one bite at a time and being cautious. He now has support (and continues) to have support of the citizens in this work that lays ahead. We know without a shadow of a doubt that there will be no RV without Amnesty and other laws. This is given facts to us. So to get these needed laws implemented Abadi must clean up the crocked judiciary system (as well as his ministers).  Abadi has gotten momentum from the protestors and so it is time now to move forward on these judicial reforms and we should all be jumping up and down with joy. We have waited soooo long for this to happen.

BGG – The rats are lining up on one side – Abadi on the other, I think Mahmoud will be crushed before this is over…Sistani has great influence with the PMU’s also. I don’t think Ameri (or Mahmoud) will win this fight. The political corruption MUST END – the WB/IMF is INSISTENT – and these jokers just can’t manage to leave the trough. They (Allawi – Maliki – Mutlaq and others) are clearly showing themselves as defending their corrupt way of life.   I do think Abadi will work with Parliament to get this solved. He is OBVIOUSLY serious about dealing with their corrupt issues.

Adam Montana – I have good news and bad news today.  The bad news first – no HCL, no RV. Sorry.  The good news is…Look for the headlines on ISIS and turmoil in Iraq.   You aren’t seeing many, are you? That’s right! Because things are actually going VERY well over there right now, and this is exactly the situation we want to be in before the HCL is passed and they can successfully make a big change to the value of their currency. Although I am cautiously optimistic, this looks to me like the “quiet before the storm”. Let’s go, Iraq! Time to get this show on the road!

Protests and uprisings against the government and in less than 30 days…24 hr a day electricity will be turned on. So what was the problem before this…Not enough fuel to run generators? Not enough money to buy fuel?

Kaperoni – So, IMO  this is going to be gradual just as the IMF stated.  It also confirms there is no LOP (which would be an entire replacement at the same time over a short period of time). You also would not need to reduce the note count first if your going to LOP, you simply introduce the new denominations.  So,  if they reduce the physical note count from 4 billion to around a 1.5 billion, they can substantial consolidate the physical Iraqi dinar. Though it does not reduce the money supply, it may make it much easier for them to transition to smaller denominations once the float begins (ie 50, 100, 200 early 2017). I guess we wait and see.  [post 2 of 2]

Kaperoni – Raising the value gradually does chop the zeros off the exchange rate…just not overnight.  There is no chance of the dinar ever appreciating to a 1 to $1 rate overnight (RV)...it’s not mathematically possible with around 32 trillion dinar or more in circulation. Not to mention, the CBI has never mentioned one time about introducing an entire set of new bills (ie fils, 1, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100) at one time.  In  fact, all we have ever seen is the mention of a few notes and several years to complete.  And most recently, it was stated that the 50, 100, and 200 would come out around the first of 2017.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Real reform is the reform of the judicial system

BAGHDAD / News Network Iraq confirmed the Office of the Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi, Tuesday, that it is not the prerogative of the Council of Ministers or the President to sack the judiciary Chairman Medhat al-Mahmoud, while noting that it can not implement reforms without the presence spend a fair and impartial.

A spokesman for the Office Saad al-Hadithi In a press statement today: “The Iraqi constitution did not give the President of the Council of Ministers, or cabinet met for the right to dismiss the head of the judiciary or interference in the affairs of the judiciary,” noting that “from the jurisdiction of the legislative and judicial branches of government.”…

BGG – Iraqi Prime Minister Haidar Al-Abbadi, a heavy legacy of corruption and corrupt people piled up during the reign of his predecessor, Nouri al-Maliki, making way for reforms is filled with obstacles and mines.”  “Al-Ibadi form special committees to open files of the Central Bank, Sinan Al-Shabibi sacked former County, and marred by charges of him by mafia corruption that dominated in that period.”  WOW – that’s some good stuff there!!   That seems – while mentioning the CBI – that it is more about a “broad based” corruption probe. Nice that it points out “looking into the Shabibi accusations”… GREAT!!   the reason being – it is the very CORE of why we are still here.  fix that – this thing is over.  [How long after M is gone will it be before an RV will take place?]  Iraq needs value BAD!!  it can be quick.

Hub – …they said they wanted to develop the social sections of the economy in the next 4 years this is about right…but for a country like iraq to only see a 50% increase in the next 15 years is a very slow growth with their resources, then they want to have experts come in to help set up the infrastructures for iraq, now how in the world will 1166 to 1 currency entice any growth or any experts to come to iraq to straighten them out.  …with out a tradable, non-exotic recognized currency none of this will be accomplished.  as far as if it is a economy growth or isx, i am not sure…but to obtain 50% in 15 years with oil, gold, ag, and all the other stuff seems to be very conservative…they need to get off  high center and get after it.   …the simplistic economy lesson is how much does it take to by a coke. in us dollars we take $1.50, canada 1.70, in mexico 15 pesos, in iraq 100 dinar so the answer is ok go to the bank or store or dairy queen and buy a coke with dinar…nope, wont work, so this is the dilemma for iraq…make your money worth something.

Political sources: al-Maliki, trying to return to Parliament in the hope “immunity” and “challenged” in front of the judiciary in the abolition of office

Political sources revealed that former Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki is trying to escape from prosecution in the case of the fall of Mosul through his quest to return to Parliament in anticipation of immunity on the one hand and appeal to the judiciary to cancel his other hand.

This comes in conjunction with the description of Abbas Moussawi, media adviser to the owners in a statement to the London-based Asharq al-Awsat last sacking from the post of Vice President of the Republic is unconstitutional, noting that such impeachment must be subject to the law…

Mnt Goat – This is my personal theory on what the CBI is ultimately is going to do – I believe they know they must float the value of the IQD and gradually let it rise. They will NOT ATTEMPT to push out a very high rate right (i.e. $3.91) initially due to the money laundering (the current CBI governor has not controlled) and the terrorists activities. The CBI does talk about starting the project to delete the zeros sometime in very early 2016. What will they ultimately do? Again my personal belief is strong that Abadi is going to clean up the CBI too and Dr Shabibi will be back as the governor of the CBI to continue his original plan as they are almost now back on track.  [post 2 of 2]

It’s really, really bad news for the Shia/thug/hardliners…these protests asking for Medhat’s removal are a big deal – I guess maybe the biggest deal of the day.
______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat – The CBI knows it must make some kind of move in the near future to go international. The pressure is enormous to do something.  So again we are seeing many articles published on debates going on about changing the dinar exchange rate.  Last week…they were debating the pros and cons of FLOATING the dinar rate and the disparity of the Iraqi dinar to other neighboring countries.  So what will they actually do?  Iraq simply can not continue to do business and move forward without a realistic currency value.  We know if they finally roll out to the international exchanges and then float the currency at a low beginning rate, it  will not be long before we see some significant value increase.  We will all then be subject to the international market rate at the banks at this point and so we can then go exchange our dinar anytime we wish and at any rate.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Aggiedad77 – …we see that Dr. S [Shabibi] is wanting his name cleared from the false accusations made against him by the previous administration…the Iraqi government continues to lean on and play ball with the US which I am sure does not bode well with the Iranians who were already riled up at being rebuffed last week by PM Abadi and the religious clerics…Seems that the COM is muddying the waters for any attempts by Maliki or the other VP’s to re-enter Parliament…and we have the three big boys…President Masum, PM Abadi, and Speaker Jubouri all meeting today to discuss reforms and whatever else they get the urge to bring up…oh and the Investment Law sounds like it might be ready to be teed up today…we shall see…And don’t forget about the Anti-Money Laundering Law…where and when will it surface in Parliament…the clock is ticking.
______________________________________________________________

Shredd – Article quote:  “…which will be an important factor in creating excellent investment environment and meet the aspiration of all parties.”  That is for sure. When the investment laws are passed, that will truly open opportunities for investors who have been waiting for protections.  The banking side has come a long way regarding balances and conversion protections, and now with these laws passed, will position Iraq for some much needed stimulus. Investment = lending = borrowing = commerce = jobs = revenue = taxes.  That’s a win/win!

Meet the man trying to bring Iraq back from the brink

Riot policemen stand in front of protesters during demonstration against the poor quality of basic services, power outages and calling for trial of corrupt politicians in Baghdad

On August 16, an Iraqi parliamentary report named Iraq’s former prime minister, Nouri al-Maliki, among dozens of officials responsible for the collapse of security forces and the fall of Mosul to Islamic State militants last summer. In his eight years as premier, corruption thrived and Maliki repeatedly purged the Iraqi security forces of those he suspected of disloyalty.

Iraqis now hope that Maliki and other officials will stand trial and be held to account for why militants were able to capture the northern city with so little resistance. (Maliki dismissed the parliamentary investigation as “worthless,” and he blamed Mosul’s fall on a conspiracy by Turkish and Kurdish leaders.)…

tman23 – BAGHDAD – Coordinators of recent protests in provinces throughout Iraq are fearing for their lives, as four have already been assassinated. Al Jazeera claimed that the victims were assassinated in retaliation for their role in the demonstrations. Iraqi civil rights activis Odai Zaydi, claimed that political parties are responsible for the assassinations “as they are originally against the establishment of a democratic government in Iraq.”……….  EXACTLY WHY……Laws are contested and delayed…. The whole idea of Iraq was a democracy in the Middle East……but the hardliners favor “regimes”……..And as Abadi said…. it may cost him his life BUT he is moving forward with reforms and democracy for the citizens of Iraq.

Mnt Goat – I will say that we are heading for a great window of opportunity for an RV come mid September and onward. Abadi’s government had until mid September to implement the needed laws to support the necessary reforms, as these reforms are part of his promises made during the negotiations to allow him to take control of the government and to be seated as the new prime minister.  Also, resulting from a second Paris Conference in mid June, they also gave him 90 more days to complete the reforms (on corruption) and get in place other laws to support the economy (i.e Investment law and Banking laws, anti-Laundering laws, etc).  I believe that if he can be successful we may also see the currency reform finally implemented.  Again I am telling you the RV is a by-product of this reform process and not the means in itself.  They desperately need these reforms prior to any RV.

This is HUGE for insuring the downturn of Maliki.  So why is money laundering so important all of a sudden? Do they want billions of dinar going into the wrong hands when the value increases?

Soleimani stormed out after a heated meeting of National Alliance [and al-Abadi]

Baghdad-Iraq-Presse: “Middle East” newspaper quoted London on Tuesday for a high-level source that the meeting stormy been two days between Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi and the commander of Iran’s Qods Force Gen. Qassem Soleimani before, the last part in a meeting of the Political Commission of the alliance National, headed by Ibrahim al-Jaafari, Foreign Minister, and the participation of each of the Vice President of the Republic article Nuri al-Maliki and the leader of the Supreme Council Ammar al-Hakim, leader of the Badr Organization, Hadi al-Amiri, a representative of the cleric Moqtada al-Sadr…

Kaperoni –  Article quote:  “The policy now is to meet the demand for dollars,” Waleed Eedi, a director general at the Central Bank of Iraq, said by telephone on Monday. The reserves won’t be depleted because of oil sales and the dinar won’t devalue, he said.”  It’s a doom and gloom article from Bloomberg and we already have seen the articles asking to devalue the dinar a few weeks back.  The CBI was clear that was not an option and reiterated that in this article.

I think there was an article earlier that said that he was going to.]  NOT ACCORDING TO REPORTS THAT I HAVE CONFIDENCE IN — REFORMS ARE IN THE PROCESS ALREADY BY WHAT I READ.

wmawhite – [I just got an article…talking about dinar against other currencies and oil price:  “Iraqi dinar compete Arab currencies in the exchange rate“]  currently the IQD is not competing against anything… therefore, if this person is correct and the IQD is going to compete within the world currency markets, then its status must change first.  Meaning, currencies compete based upon exchange rates… therefore, it must have an exchange rate with which other currencies will exchange with.  [so does that mean maybe an rv soon?]  There is NO maybes with the IQD…there is only WHEN the IQD starts moving within the world currencies markets.  Personally, they (the CBI, GOI and ISX) have issued so many indicators that point to a change in the status of the IQD.

Mnt Goat – Part of this effort will also be cleaning house in the CBI including the changeover from the proxy governor Ali al-Alaq to Dr. Sinan al-Shabibi.  I have evidence that speaks strongly that corruption must be cleaned out of the current CBI first before we will see any currency reform.
I assure you the process is already in play. The men on the chess board are about to be moved around.  So this week looks very good. I expect announcements of some of the recent reforms and Reconciliation legislation signed into law. Also I suspect this week or in the next couple weeks, we are once again some movement into a fantastic window of opportunity to see a change in the currency value of Iraq...I feel we are at the very near end to this RV saga.  [post 2 of 2]

Analysts: al-Maliki at war again after being convicted of the report of Mosul

http://www.dinarupdates.com/showthread.php?18174-Analysts-al-Maliki-at-war-again-after-being-convicted-of-the-report-of-Mosul&p=128045&viewfull=1#post128045

BGG Notes:

Maliki came back from Iran where he met with most of his most ardent Shia supporters (not all Shias support him – as before).

The Dawa party (and Maliki) “facially supports” these recent reforms called for by the Iraqi Clerics and the demonstrators (the people)… However, it’s a political tactic. He needs to look like..

“HE’S THE REFORMER”, or at least line himself up with the reforms…

Then there’s these rants blaming Erbil and Turkey for the fall of Mosul. Maliki must think no one remembers Barzani going to the press when Maliki wouldn’t listen about ISIS on the move.

There are articles out that affirm they put the SLC at Abadi’s disposal… again a weak showing of being “on the side of reforms” – not the “focus of the reforms”…

On the other hand Maliki is secretly attempting to subvert Abadi  everything he does.

It is worth noting – there are numerous OP ED’s out recently pointing out that if Maliki really wanted reforms he would have done so long ago.

Maliki is in now in FULL DAMAGE control…

The Friday before the Mosul Report was coming out – he went to Iran to gather support. This move seems to have (temporarily) worked. This caught me a little off-guard. I didn’t think he had that kind of support from Iran once they pulled their support from his bid for a 3rd term.

He did not come back until he had some assurance of some kind – though no guarantee, he must feel he has some potential for survival.

This just goes to show you. I was told some time ago he had deep support from some very unlikely sources. It appears both Sunni leadership was “on the take” as well as some level of support from the Iranian Mullahs. Though they don’t seem to support another Maliki term – they don’t appear ready to throw him overboard just yet either. There is no guarantee they won’t though.

They have even sent Gen Qassem Soleimani into Iraq south of Baghdad to orchestrate a “quelling” of the demonstrations and supposedly to secure Maliki’s safety. However, I am not convinced his ultimate safety is Soleimani’s underlying mission.

This report of Gen. Soleimani being there is limited in it’s scope (how many times/and how it is reported) – so I view this with a healthy dose of skepticism. Also – this frantic move to maintain control over Iraq may well backfire on them. It is becoming clearer and clearer they have some agenda. This is surely not lost on the Iraqi people. Overall, they are typically not happy about external influence – US or Iranian. They don’t like it. One good thing – all of this has forced the Iranians to play their hand in a more public fashion. Now they all know…

Abadi was quoted just recently as saying…

…”the prime minister does not think now in dissent nor undo the reforms, and will not seek to raise Maliki’s name from the list of defendants fall of Mosul.”…

Meaning – he won’t take Maliki’s name out of this report… it will play out.

I don’t see – with the mounting charges, how Maliki survives this barrage. Mosul, Halabja, embezzlement from the CBI, the Speicher massacre, the prison break, it goes on and on and on…

Further – my comments regarding “Maliki as gone” – are clearly “forward looking statements” and ARE IN PROGRESS. Visible progress has been made – for now, Maliki is NOT A VP and is NOT WELCOME in official GOI meetings. Party meetings are one thing. GOI is another thing entirely.

Rather than get caught up in who’s right and who’s wrong and what the details are – what about the WHY?? WHY did Abadi move now?? Was it demonstrators?? No – I doubt it very much. Maliki can think he has everyone right where he wants them – but keep in mind this whole campaign of reform was kicked off by the WB/IMF telling Iraq to get their AML (Anti-Money Laundering) and corruption under control (both issues pointed DIRECTLY AT MALIKI). They were given until Oct 1st to get an AML law put in place. It would probably help Abadi to have an Investment Law in place as well.

Thus far Abadi has responded. Judiciary is next. He needs to keep up the pressure...

Aggiedad77 – Article:  “Foreign Policy: Iraq is not a lost cause”  The Iraqi Ambassador to the US begs to differ with some within the US regarding the situation in Iraq today…some look inside the country and only see a bleak and black future, one of separation…however the Ambassador says that Iraq is not a lost cause, Iraq’s strength he says lies within their unity as a country a unity that is built upon integrity and a bonding between previously warring entities that are currently working together to push DAASH out of the country…that are working together today in support of reforms being proposed and implemented by PM Abadi and his government…he asks that US leadership not promote separation but instead stand with Iraq for unity because Iraq is not a lost cause.

Breitling – Just going by math and looking at what’s going on in Iraq….I haven’t seen anything negative.   There is nothing out there stopping this.  It’s simply not going to happen.   Iraqi people need purchasing power.  But the CBI has to do it correctly.  They can’t just push a button and all of a sudden there is value behind their currency.  They have to make sure it can be stable and it can grow and they can control it…that’s the most important thing.  Other countries and companies won’t invest in Iraq unless it has that type of control.  [Post 2 of 2]

[With all the news that we have read recently, was hoping to get…input on where we are, and where we’re headed.]  … Iraq is moving forward not backwards like some are implying. Yes, I would like to see things move a bit faster… I do have some positive news but I have not had a chance to verify it from additional sources. It is very positive.

Mnt Goat – As we know Maliki traveled to Iran with a delegation from his party. I believe his intent was to defect to Iran since he also traveled with his family. Once there he was asked to return to Iraq. He is now back in Iraq…  Abadi is moving quickly on the clean up of the Judiciary system to get the Judicial Reforms implemented. This will clear the way for any obstacles for many future reform objectives including bringing Maliki and his goons to their final demise thus stopping the stalling of needed legislation to complete the Reconciliation efforts agreed to be completed by mid September. These reforms are moving lightening fast.

Millionday – Article quote:  “The International Monetary Fund forecast on Wednesday, the Iraqi economy growth of 0.5% by the end of this year, thanks to expansion in the oil sector, and increase the contraction of economic activity in the non-oil.”  THE INCREASE OF NON-OIL IS ALL OTHER PRODUCTION OTHER THAN OIL CALCULATED WITH GDP.   THE IMF FIGURES REPRESENT THE ACTIVATED REFORM RESULTS…THE IMF IS HAPPY WITH THE REFORM PACKAGE AND HAS ADJUSTED ALONG WITH REFORMS PREDICTIONS OF GROWTH FOR THIS YEAR.

Breitling – An article came out and a lot of people are scared about the idea of a LOP…look, this is a repeat [article].   The biggest indicator for a lop is they wouldn’t reduce the note count…they wouldn’t need to…they’d just take the 3 zeros off and that’s it…that’s the indicator.  If they are physically reducing the note count…They have reduced the note count from 9 billion to 6 billion to 4 Billion to whatever they’re at today and that includes taking away the 50 dinar note.  They can’t reduce the note count like that AND take the zeros at the same time.  If you go back to the minister of finance’s plan what is it?  To get the dinar to the US dollar….that’s it.   What do they have to do to maneuver to do that?  They have to reduce the note count.  They have to get US dollars out of the market.  [Post 1 of 2…stay tuned for the rest of the story]

Seems that if they are using the dollar then we must still be supporting them financially. If that’s the case then they don’t really need to be concerned about the Dinar’s value.]  The CBI runs auctions and uses the dollar to balance the rate. From an RV standpoint it really doesn’t matter that they are using USD and IQD. All that matters is where the CBI sets the rate, because that determines how many USD we get for each Dinar.  Long story short – their use of USD is not a bad thing for us.

Al Maliki steps into Al Hashemi’s shoes

Iraqi Prime Minister Al Abadi still has a long way to go, but he is on the right track

It is a curious twist of irony that the man who pursued the now-fugitive former Iraqi vice-president Tariq Al Hashemi may suffer a similar fate. Iraq’s former premier, and former vice-president Nouri Al Maliki is currently in Iran, where some have suggested that he may never come back from as Baghdad seeks to investigate his role in the fall of Mosul to Daesh (the self-proclaimed Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant) last year. The move was a milestone for the terror group that allowed it to gain much support among radicals around the globe, as well as territory in Iraq and Syria…

Arthur – It should now be blatantly obvious that the one missing piece to the whole RV puzzle is the lack of a Hydrocarbon Law (HCL) in Iraq to release the budget funds to the provinces as well as a myriad other items that the HCL benefits. In light of where we are in the process we can now release breaking news gathered from sources within the process.  Without going into too much minute details, the delay in the full blown release of the next round of reforms was, among other things due to the instability in the political arena in the Kurdistan region. We have information that much of that has now reached a sufficient point of closure that the next round of reforms, including the HCL is now in imminent status with the signing of some documents and release by the PTB.  We are now in a countdown to the full blown economic reform introducing the Iraqi dinar to the international community.

THEY ARE TELLING US THEY NEED UNTIL 2017…  IMF IS TELLING US THEY NEED UNTIL, THE END OF 2016 IRAQ NEEDS TO PUT ON TRAINING WHEELS AND BECOME CONVERTIBLE NOW SO THEY WILL DO THAT WITH A DOLLAR PEG, BUT THEN LATER WHEN THEY HAVE ALL THEIR CORRECT CURRENCY AND ARE READY TO TAKE OFF THE TRAINING WHEELS THEY WILL PEG TO THE BASK AT A REALITY RATE REFLECTING THEIR GDP BY THEN AND THEY WILL HAVE A NEW PERMANENT RATE.  WE SHOULD SEE A RATE NOW ISH BUT NOT A SDR VALUE UNTIL THEY SWITCH PEGS…A 2 STEP PROCESS. [with a peg to USD at par would be $1 IQD to $1 USD right?]    WELL SORT OF…BUT I THINK THE INDEX IS 0.98 NOW.  [post 2 of 2]

BGG: says to jackflash101st Sounds like it – who knows how that will end.
BGG: says to jackflash101st Mahmoud already tried to resign.

BGG: Wow –

BGG: [the report] – emphasizes that what happened before the fall of Mosul was planned by al-Maliki in order to return to power and picking the third mandate until the door drop Sunni leaders in the western regions and the declaration of emergency law that allows him to control and put the Kurdistan region with a fait accompli,

BGG: which I said over and over – no one cared much (at the time) to listen…

BGG: WOW – as I read this whole report, it strikes me, the reason Maliki is coming back (or has – or will Thursday)… reference is made to the fact, if he stays gone his political influence ends QUICKLY.

Kaperoni – Article:  “Jubouri: The second package of reforms will contain a lot of detailed important decisions”   We can see now that these various committees are being formed to present to the PM reforms. And the second package appears to begin to including banking reforms..specifically mentioned here “guarantee deposits.” This brings me to the committee that met yesterday discussing the currency… We could be seeing the beginning of many steps to improve the economy, strengthen the banking system and improve the value of the currency. It will be interesting to watch these packages of reforms over the next several weeks and how they are implemented.

It had been rumoured that Barzani and al-Nujaifi were included on the list, but al-Zamili rejected the claims. President Barzani insists that he warned former PM Nouri al-Maliki about the serious threats facing northern Iraq before IS launched their 2014 attacks, but was ignored.…….. Now we wait for the reports that will expose Maliki funneling Iraqi money to Tehran…….And that I assume will go over very well with Iraqi citizens and their fondness for Tehran

tman23 – The new currency must come first as a prelude to the deletion of the 3 zeros from the currency… This is the biggest statement ever made yet so often overlooked! If they are speaking of new lower denoms, then they would need a rate other then 1166…and if they come first, then the 3 zero notes will carry high value before removing the 3 zeros at the exchange window…what is the time limit…72 hrs…7 days…who knows…but it is possible! The other scenario is seeing a 50,000 note come in October…if that hits the streets then it is not looking good no matter how anyone tries to spin it… Make no mistake…the world is on the edge of financial disasters… it is real and live! There are 33 consulates now opened in Erbil… All these countries are lining up at the feeding trough…IMO it is bigger then Iraq…something BIG is being prepared… and TIME IS A FACTOR!

Frank26 – The Monetary Reform remains in front of us.  It is our opinion that Dr. S [Shabibi] will be returning but we just don’t know when.  Again, IOO (In Our Opinion) the reforms will need an RI to start them.  From the article earlier today, “Let it Float”….this will put things in the hands of the international world and with this will come a faster rise in the rate…IOO.  With the actions being taken by PM Abadi in the form of his reforms expect to see the removal of many things, people, policies, laws, etc. he will make sure that nothing stands in the way of his reforms as we move forward.

Iraq: Report on fall of Mosul to ISIS calls for ex-PM Maliki to face trial

Breitling – They [the CBI] are telling business and local banks to stop doing business with Iran…the main reason why is they [Iran] are trying to pump US dollars into iraq because they know they [Iraq] are trying to add value to the dinar and they [Iran] know one of the tools to keep the value of the dinar down was the US dollar…it’s a back door confirmation of what the intent is of what Iraq wants to do.   They are cutting Iran off at the knees.  It’s one thing if the CBI can scoop up those dollars and put them into the reserves…that’s a good thing but there is so much that they’re having a problem with it.  And it will keep the value of the dinar down if they don’t tackle it.

BGG – Article quote:  “President of the parliamentary Economic Committee, Dr. Haitham al-Jabouri, an elite group of advisers, experts and academics…included within the plan of economic reforms and the issue of Iraqi dinar to float where participants set Of recommendations to be submitted to the Office of the Prime Minister.”  Keep in mind…though high powered – this is a group of experts who got together and talked things over…(not the Gov of CBI or PM)…and are (or have) forwarding their idea(s) to Abadi…I am not sure “float” is the singular though – it is not impossible they could be talking about the IQD “going up”…My point is this – the translation “float” could be easily better “characterized” as “going up”…That is the STUNNER…  [Do you think its possible they still haven’t decided how they are going to do this? meaning open to suggestions?]  For sure – they haven’t even fully regained control of their own CBI yet… anything is possible.  more than whatever it is they are saying – is the “weirdly coincidental” timing of these few articles coming out…right around this “period of reform” by Abadi…this seems to be a time of “rapid change” – so things could unfold very, very quickly.

Poppy3 – TOLD YA’LL…WHAT THE OFFICIAL WORDS WERE AND NOT ANYTHING EVER BEEN SAID BY ANY OFFICIAL SINCE THEN…$3.22 PLUS UP TO 20% MORE FOR INFLATION WHICH COULD ADD UP TO .64 CENTS MORE.  NOW FOR ALL THOSE THINKING THEY WILL COME OUT LOW AND GO UP ASK THEM TO SHOW YOU ANYTHING FROM THE PEOPLE THAT ACTUALLY HAVE Anything to do with setting the rate HAS SAID ANYTHING DIFFERENT.  THEY CAN’T.  IT’S NEVER HAPPENED…WOULD A LOW RATE BE $3.22 AND NOT ADD ANY INFLATION RATE TO IT?  FOOD FOR YOUR THOUGHTS.   …JUST THE FACTS…ONLY STATED FACTS BY THE DIRECT PEOPLE THAT SET THE RATE.

Frank26 – Let me talk about a BLACK LIST…it’s about removing the 000’s.  THEY CAN PUT THEM ON THE BLACKLIST – if we don’t see anything in a monetary reform change…the currency will be put on a black list – …if it doesn’t happen by Oct. 1st… it would be disastrous for the monetary reform…  The international currency is the ONLY SOLUTION TO AVOID BEING PUT ON A BLACK LIST, IMO.   There’s lots of soldiers that are in Iraq to protect the new government. It’s going to become a democratic country – Insurgents don’t like that hipocrasy as long as they work with the new government. Our boots on the ground is to protect a new justice that’s about to come to bear.  JUSTICE….and the reinstatement of many reforms.  [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

Round Table Chat w/BGG 8-17-15

Thanks to DinarRecaps.com for posting Round Table with BGG 

BGG: Jubouri: We have no right to delete any name from Mosul report

BGG: The head of the parliament Saleem al-Jubouri, on Monday, the House of Representatives does not have the right to delete any name mentioned in the report of the fall of Mosul, while pointing out that the report was written neutrally and did not exclude a paragraph or a name and did not succumb to pressure…

BGG: This piece was all about the mention of Maliki as the key figure in the report.

BGG: he and his people wanted his name off it and those currently in charge wouldn’t take his name off…

BGG: Very cool piece.

Robl: Do we know where Maliki is at the present? Iran, Iraq?

BGG: I am suspicious – he may be in Iran.

Frank26 – …on Tuesday our teams called us and said…the only way to get the MR [Monetary Reform] is for Mr. S [Shabibi] to come back!  In my strong opinion, Dr. Shabibi has been the quarter back, but… Dr. S said two years ago I got kicked out by Maliki – do you think I’m going to come back while he’s there? Of course not.  Six months ago, Abadi asked Dr. Shabibi to come back – but he said not under these conditions. Once I know the banks are secure and Aleck gone and get rid of Maliki’s son too…Dr. Shabibi said if you BUILD THIS FOR ME, I’ll be back…and I see that you’ve built what I want.  …SOCIAL MEDIA, YOUTUBE…you can find “keywords” there…when you see “KEYWORD” substitute DR. SHABIBI…IMO.   Speculation of Dr. Shabibi being arrested…That’s BS.   [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]

wmawhite – The discussion about what type of notes are used on the streets is totally different from a discussion about the yet to be announced international exchange rate. There will be one international exchange rate for the IQD which is only applicable outside the country. That will in turn determine the type and size of the note to be used in country.  Folks, what you can take away from this discussion and that article is that the citizens are being told to expect changes in the currency they will use on the streets and why?  Because, the IQD will be put on the world currency market and the new value of the IQD will affect the type of note they will use inside Iraq. Plain and simple. [If the IQD does float, will there be value added & then it floats or will it float from 1166? If it floats from 1166 will there be demand for the IQD at that level?]  The CBI will never tell what they will do until after it is implemented. We will know the same time the rest of the world currency markets know.   [post 2 of 2]

So that article was telling the citizens that they should expect to have additional purchasing power equal to $75.00 where it used to be only $25.00…additionally, they are being reminded that the large notes will gradually go away…but they will have 3 times the purchasing power.  the CBI has over and over emphaized that the three zeros notes will continue to be legal tender…but has to [as the?] prices in the economy are reduced the need for the large notes go away and are replaced with LDs.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Aggiedad77 – Article: “Economist: deletion of zeros from the currency will reduce the dollar traded in the local market”  It would appear that we have a case of apples and oranges here…they don’t mix too well when put into a case…it was either designed for apples or for oranges, but as a mix, the lid just won’t close properly.  We even see the use of Dr. S [Shabibi] name here…saying he was ready four years ago but the project was delayed as they awaited the correct conditions…then we witnessed the ouster of Dr. S from his position as Governor of the CBI and we believe opportunities have been squandered ever since.  Well the time grows ripe again…will we see the return of Dr. S with the ouster today of keywords from his position as “acting” governor of the CBI…a job that apparently he hasn’t done too well in the eyes of PM Abadi.  Remember who appointed him…the removal of the 000’s was Dr. S’s baby…his project…but not in this manner or fashion…only the truth in action here will set any of us free…and as part of that truth keep in mind this is one person’s opinion…and he is not a part of the process that will bring Dr. S’s project to fruition.

Orders for the arrest of former Iraqi Central Bank director Sanan al-Shabibi has also been ordered…”  that doesn’t mean it’s so but we need to watch for any further developments!  all institutions are under the spot light and lets not forget that Maliki appointed Ali Alak as CBI governor after Turki.

Al-kinani said in a statement: “the decisions of the Government and parliamentary reform has two dimensions, economic dimension because it represents a step towards addressing the SAG of the administrative and financial functioning of the State institutions including the Government itself, as well as another political dimension of such decisions will pave to cancel quota confessional that has made the country a standstill.”

firefly – IMO Abadi and Shabibi are in the same boat. Each is paddling in unison towards one goal.  Remember…it was Abadi that forced the courts to remove all previous charges brought on Shabibi from Maliki.  Shabibi has NEVER been OFFICIALLY replaced…just a bunch of proxy (fillers) for the position.  …according to the old constitution…the CBI Governor had to be voted in by Parliament.  Maliki to my understanding never had the power to appoint a permanent Governor.

I mean where do we fit in the scheme of things? ONE OF THE REPORTS WE HAD ANNOUNCED THAT WITH THE REFORM LAW BEING PASSED THE IMPORTANT LAWS WERE PASSED TOO — SO AT THIS POINT MANY THINGS ARE NOT BEING RELEASED — WE DONT HAVE A DATE OR RATE AND HAVE NOT HAD ONE OR A GUARANTEE BUT — SO MANY THINGS HAVE MOVED FORWARD FROM WHERE WE WERE — HUGE PROGRESS.
______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat – I believe Abadi has a new target – that of the Judiciary and Court System of Iraq.  Abadi must deal with the judiciary now in order to get some of these other laws passed and properly deal with much of the corruption.  So how do you judiciously deal with corruption in your ministries if the court system itself is corrupt?   …Iraq had to be sorted out by Abadi and priorities placed, a plan was designed. He is taking on one bite at a time and being cautious. He now has support (and continues) to have support of the citizens in this work that lays ahead. We know without a shadow of a doubt that there will be no RV without Amnesty and other laws. This is given facts to us. So to get these needed laws implemented Abadi must clean up the crocked judiciary system (as well as his ministers).  Abadi has gotten momentum from the protestors and so it is time now to move forward on these judicial reforms and we should all be jumping up and down with joy. We have waited soooo long for this to happen.

The Exchange Rate of Foreign Currency in Economic Feasibility Studies 

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.

Estimate the shadow price of foreign currency:…

3.      Estimate the amended exchange rate of the Iraqi dinar to be used in technical and economical feasibility studies and for (1.134) dollar per dinar. This price should be approved for 3 years until re-appreciation by the competent authorities.

Real reform is the reform of the judicial system

BAGHDAD / News Network Iraq confirmed the Office of the Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi, Tuesday, that it is not the prerogative of the Council of Ministers or the President to sack the judiciary Chairman Medhat al-Mahmoud, while noting that it can not implement reforms without the presence spend a fair and impartial.

A spokesman for the Office Saad al-Hadithi In a press statement today: “The Iraqi constitution did not give the President of the Council of Ministers, or cabinet met for the right to dismiss the head of the judiciary or interference in the affairs of the judiciary,” noting that “from the jurisdiction of the legislative and judicial branches of government.”…

BGG – Iraqi Prime Minister Haidar Al-Abbadi, a heavy legacy of corruption and corrupt people piled up during the reign of his predecessor, Nouri al-Maliki, making way for reforms is filled with obstacles and mines.”  “Al-Ibadi form special committees to open files of the Central Bank, Sinan Al-Shabibi sacked former County, and marred by charges of him by mafia corruption that dominated in that period.”  WOW – that’s some good stuff there!!   That seems – while mentioning the CBI – that it is more about a “broad based” corruption probe. Nice that it points out “looking into the Shabibi accusations”… GREAT!!   the reason being – it is the very CORE of why we are still here.  fix that – this thing is over.  [How long after M is gone will it be before an RV will take place?]  Iraq needs value BAD!!  it can be quick.

Hub – …they said they wanted to develop the social sections of the economy in the next 4 years this is about right…but for a country like iraq to only see a 50% increase in the next 15 years is a very slow growth with their resources, then they want to have experts come in to help set up the infrastructures for iraq, now how in the world will 1166 to 1 currency entice any growth or any experts to come to iraq to straighten them out.  …with out a tradable, non-exotic recognized currency none of this will be accomplished.  as far as if it is a economy growth or isx, i am not sure…but to obtain 50% in 15 years with oil, gold, ag, and all the other stuff seems to be very conservative…they need to get off  high center and get after it.   …the simplistic economy lesson is how much does it take to by a coke. in us dollars we take $1.50, canada 1.70, in mexico 15 pesos, in iraq 100 dinar so the answer is ok go to the bank or store or dairy queen and buy a coke with dinar…nope, wont work, so this is the dilemma for iraq…make your money worth something.

Political sources: al-Maliki, trying to return to Parliament in the hope “immunity” and “challenged” in front of the judiciary in the abolition of office

Political sources revealed that former Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki is trying to escape from prosecution in the case of the fall of Mosul through his quest to return to Parliament in anticipation of immunity on the one hand and appeal to the judiciary to cancel his other hand.

This comes in conjunction with the description of Abbas Moussawi, media adviser to the owners in a statement to the London-based Asharq al-Awsat last sacking from the post of Vice President of the Republic is unconstitutional, noting that such impeachment must be subject to the law…

BGG – Quote:  “...Maliki is poised to lose his ceremonial post as one of Iraq’s three vice presidents under a series of reforms that the current prime minister, Haider al-Abadi, is trying to enact.”   Or probably already has “lost his position”…there is NO WAY the WB/IMF will let this get overturned – Abadi will get worldwide support for this… it shows the very character of the struggle going on in Iraq RIGHT NOW.  I don’t think Maliki will survive this onslaught…AND I think if anyone can “dethrone” Maliki from in front of the PMU – IT’S SISTANI!!  He’s the driving force behind the support Abadi has and is the catalyst for these reforms!!   [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

Mnt Goat – This is my personal theory on what the CBI is ultimately is going to do – I believe they know they must float the value of the IQD and gradually let it rise. They will NOT ATTEMPT to push out a very high rate right (i.e. $3.91) initially due to the money laundering (the current CBI governor has not controlled) and the terrorists activities. The CBI does talk about starting the project to delete the zeros sometime in very early 2016. What will they ultimately do? Again my personal belief is strong that Abadi is going to clean up the CBI too and Dr Shabibi will be back as the governor of the CBI to continue his original plan as they are almost now back on track.  [post 2 of 2]
______________________________________________________________

BGG – Article quote:  “Dozens of people demonstrated on Monday in front of the Supreme Judicial Council building in Baghdad to demand the resignation of President of the Council Medhat al-Mahmoud…”  …once Medhat al-Mahmoud is gone – Maliki has ZERO fall back position. It’s really, really bad news for the Shia/thug/hardliners…these protests asking for Medhat’s removal are a big deal – I guess maybe the biggest deal of the day.

Mnt Goat – The CBI knows it must make some kind of move in the near future to go international. The pressure is enormous to do something.  So again we are seeing many articles published on debates going on about changing the dinar exchange rate.  Last week…they were debating the pros and cons of FLOATING the dinar rate and the disparity of the Iraqi dinar to other neighboring countries.  So what will they actually do?  Iraq simply can not continue to do business and move forward without a realistic currency value.  We know if they finally roll out to the international exchanges and then float the currency at a low beginning rate, it  will not be long before we see some significant value increase.  We will all then be subject to the international market rate at the banks at this point and so we can then go exchange our dinar anytime we wish and at any rate.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Shredd – Article quote:  “…which will be an important factor in creating excellent investment environment and meet the aspiration of all parties.”  That is for sure. When the investment laws are passed, that will truly open opportunities for investors who have been waiting for protections.  The banking side has come a long way regarding balances and conversion protections, and now with these laws passed, will position Iraq for some much needed stimulus. Investment = lending = borrowing = commerce = jobs = revenue = taxes.  That’s a win/win!

Meet the man trying to bring Iraq back from the brink

Riot policemen stand in front of protesters during demonstration against the poor quality of basic services, power outages and calling for trial of corrupt politicians in Baghdad

On August 16, an Iraqi parliamentary report named Iraq’s former prime minister, Nouri al-Maliki, among dozens of officials responsible for the collapse of security forces and the fall of Mosul to Islamic State militants last summer. In his eight years as premier, corruption thrived and Maliki repeatedly purged the Iraqi security forces of those he suspected of disloyalty.

Iraqis now hope that Maliki and other officials will stand trial and be held to account for why militants were able to capture the northern city with so little resistance. (Maliki dismissed the parliamentary investigation as “worthless,” and he blamed Mosul’s fall on a conspiracy by Turkish and Kurdish leaders.)…

tman23 – BAGHDAD – Coordinators of recent protests in provinces throughout Iraq are fearing for their lives, as four have already been assassinated. Al Jazeera claimed that the victims were assassinated in retaliation for their role in the demonstrations. Iraqi civil rights activis Odai Zaydi, claimed that political parties are responsible for the assassinations “as they are originally against the establishment of a democratic government in Iraq.”……….  EXACTLY WHY……Laws are contested and delayed…. The whole idea of Iraq was a democracy in the Middle East……but the hardliners favor “regimes”……..And as Abadi said…. it may cost him his life BUT he is moving forward with reforms and democracy for the citizens of Iraq.

Millionday – THE BANKING FORUM IS IN TWO WEEKS AND IS A PRESENTATION OF IRAQ`S ECONOMIC REALITY AND THE BANKING DEVELOPMENTS — OBVIOUSLY INTERNATIONAL AS IT IS A GLOBAL FORUM.  THE OPERATION OF INTERNATIONAL BANKING WILL BE REVEALED.  SO THIS IS TO BE RELEASED INFORMATION OF THE NEW BANKING REFORM OBVIOUSLY DUE TO THE CONTENT AND FOR IT TO BE IN JUST TWO WEEKS — THIS IS EXCITING.  THE INTERNATIONAL BANKING SHOULD LOGICALLY COME AFTER INTERNATIONAL ACCEPTANCE.  THE DINAR SHOULD BE INTERNATIONALLY ACCEPTED BEFORE GLOBAL BANKING BUT WE WILL HAVE TO WAIT ON INK.  
______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat – I will say that we are heading for a great window of opportunity for an RV come mid September and onward. Abadi’s government had until mid September to implement the needed laws to support the necessary reforms, as these reforms are part of his promises made during the negotiations to allow him to take control of the government and to be seated as the new prime minister.  Also, resulting from a second Paris Conference in mid June, they also gave him 90 more days to complete the reforms (on corruption) and get in place other laws to support the economy (i.e Investment law and Banking laws, anti-Laundering laws, etc).  I believe that if he can be successful we may also see the currency reform finally implemented.  Again I am telling you the RV is a by-product of this reform process and not the means in itself.  They desperately need these reforms prior to any RV.

Bluedog – NATIONAL GUARD LAW…I SAID LAST JANUARY 2014 THAT THIS WOULD BE THE KEY…CAUSE NO INVESTORS TILL PROTECTED.  IRAQ NEEDS TO SHOW INVESTOR THEY CONTROL ALL OF IRAQ AND NEED TO DO THAT FAST…SO NEED THAT LAW FAST.  THEN CBI CAN MOVE FORWARD.  FORGET ALL OTHER LAWS THEY WILL FOLLOW THIS…EVERYONE SAID OR THOUGHT WHAT DOES THAT LAW HAVE TO DO WITH ANYTHING…WELL YOU WILL FIND OUT YOU CANNOT SUPPORT THIS LAW WITHOUT A CHANGE IN CURRENCY REFORM…I LOOK AT HCL AS BOGAS PROPAGANDA… NATIONAL GUARD LAW IS WHAT WE HAVE WAITED FOR SO HCL COULD FOLLOW…AND CURRENCY REFORM ALSO…JIMO.

Mnt Goat – They are also telling us that money laundering and corruption in regards to the currency float is the major obstacle.  They have passed the Parties Law this week and they are pushing aggressively towards the Judicial Reforms next week, the National Guard Law (maybe tomorrow). We know by passing the Parties law anyone alleged of criminal activity (or under investigation) can no longer hold office or receive immunity. This is HUGE for insuring the downturn of Maliki.  So why is money laundering so important all of a sudden? Do they want billions of dinar going into the wrong hands when the value increases? Is the RV then dependent on this part of currency reform?  NO REFORMS NO RV…  [post 2 of 2]
______________________________________________________________

BGG – it is looking more and more like, (sometime after this first wave of reforms) they will get a legitimate HCL Law in the works…I don’t think it has been read – negotiated – gotten past the CoM or anything – but it is coming…and that is FANTASTIC NEWS.

Poppy3 – ANYONE TELLING YOU THERE WILL BE A GLOBAL CURRENCY RESET IS FULL OF BULL. …CHRISTINE LAGARD ANNOUNCED TWICE IN NATIONAL SPEECHES THAT THERE IS NO SUCH THING.  …THERE WILL NOT BE ANY GLOBAL RESET PERIOD.  …I WAS TOLD YESTERDAY TO JUST PAY CLOSE ATTENTION TO THE NEXT 4 DAYS FOR WHAT CHANGES ARE MADE AND THAT THE CBI SAYS THEY ARE NOW READY AS SOON AS THE PARLIAMENT FINISH THEIR DUTIES…WHAT DUTIES THAT IS, TO US IS NOT KNOWN AT THIS TIME.  I DID HEAR THAT THE HCL WAS BROKEN INTO THREE PARTS SO THEY COULD APPROVE ONE PART THAT THEY AGREE 100% ON AND IT WOULD ALLOW ABADI TO GET THE RATE CHANGE HE NEEDS AND WANTS NOW MORE THAN EVER.

Reforms launched by al-Abadi today a clear signal of the seriousness of reforms

BAGHDAD / Center Brief for the Iraqi Media Network (IMN) – said MP from the Civic Democratic Alliance Sunrise Alabegi that the reforms launched by Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi, on Friday, is a big step and real achievement for him, and gave a positive signal to the protesters in seriousness in reform and to move the process of anti-corruption and the corrupt who have looted the bounties of Iraq…

We know this will get us all to the bank. How long will it take to get to the end of these reforms?  Who knows for sure but we do know this week they have told us they would like to put the dinar on a currency float and at least are considering it seriously with all the pros and cons of the subject matter.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

American Contractor – Washingston Post Article 8/18/15 Quote:  “Iraq also revived a long-delayed plan to redenominate the Iraqi dinar by knocking three zeroes off the nominal value of its banknotes, said Ihsan Shamran al-Yassiri, the head of Iraq Central Bank Issuing and Vaults Department. The plan is set to be implemented by 2017 after restructuring dinar by issuing two large banknotes – a 50,000 dinar note before the end of this year and 100,000 banknote next year – and canceling small ones.”   Small Iraq Bank notes will be canceled soon says Central Bank…the 250, 500, and 1,000 bank notes will be removed…there are not that many in circulation.

Investment Law is crucial as well.  Those 3 effect the Global economy. Yes many laws are still needing implementation for the nation of Iraq but not for the monetary reform.  HCL is very much needed for IRAQ!  Could it be put off?

I thought it’s done?]  THEY ARE GOING TO DIVIDE UP PORTIONS SO THAT THE NATIONAL OIL COMPANY POLICIES DO NOT HOLD UP THE REFORM PROCESS ACCORDING TO WHAT I HAVE READ. KNOW THE HCL IS BEING PUSHED IN A HURRY AND CBI HAS STATED THAT THE TIMING IS RIPE — THIS IS A VERY EXCITING TIME.

It is likely that the resignation of Sinead be a prelude to re-seat parliament to al-Maliki after limbering included government office in addition to the pursuit of obtaining the legal immunity…”  just because they say they are giving Maliki a seat – or someone is giving up their seat (more like Maliki bought it) means he will retain immunity – or they won’t arrest him anyway… especially with the crimes he is CLEARLY accused of.  There is plenty of precedent for him to have his “immunity” lifted and be arrested immediately – this is a weak tactic… but it tells you a lot about the struggle going on right now.

Mnt Goat – Part of this effort will also be cleaning house in the CBI including the changeover from the proxy governor Ali al-Alaq to Dr. Sinan al-Shabibi.  I have evidence that speaks strongly that corruption must be cleaned out of the current CBI first before we will see any currency reform.
I assure you the process is already in play. The men on the chess board are about to be moved around.  So this week looks very good. I expect announcements of some of the recent reforms and Reconciliation legislation signed into law. Also I suspect this week or in the next couple weeks, we are once again some movement into a fantastic window of opportunity to see a change in the currency value of Iraq...I feel we are at the very near end to this RV saga.  [post 2 of 2]

We wait for his trial on many charges. This is coming in the weeks ahead. I now have proof that currency reform is in fact one of the reforms Abadi fully intends to implement VERY soon.  I also have confirmation from the CBI that the IQD is no longer directly pegged to the USD but has been pegged to the SDR now since 2012 when Dr. Shabibi (then acting governor of the CBI) was in the process of the final steps of rolling out the lower denoms and coins. Well they are now on track to pick up the pieces and move forward with this once again.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Aggiedad77 – Article:  “Supreme religious authority: a battle of destiny and to speed up reforms to hold accountable corrupt”  Here comes another not so subliminal message from the Iraqi clerics to PM Abadi…we need to clean up the judiciary to ensure when those accused of corruption are brought to trial there is no question as to the honesty and integrity of the judges hearing the cases…we need to push for more speed with the reforms that are being laid before the Iraqi people…make good decisions, make them quick, and move forward.

Analysts: al-Maliki at war again after being convicted of the report of Mosul

http://www.dinarupdates.com/showthread.php?18174-Analysts-al-Maliki-at-war-again-after-being-convicted-of-the-report-of-Mosul&p=128045&viewfull=1#post128045

BGG Notes:

Maliki came back from Iran where he met with most of his most ardent Shia supporters (not all Shias support him – as before).

The Dawa party (and Maliki) “facially supports” these recent reforms called for by the Iraqi Clerics and the demonstrators (the people)… However, it’s a political tactic. He needs to look like..

“HE’S THE REFORMER”, or at least line himself up with the reforms…

Then there’s these rants blaming Erbil and Turkey for the fall of Mosul. Maliki must think no one remembers Barzani going to the press when Maliki wouldn’t listen about ISIS on the move.

There are articles out that affirm they put the SLC at Abadi’s disposal… again a weak showing of being “on the side of reforms” – not the “focus of the reforms”…

On the other hand Maliki is secretly attempting to subvert Abadi  everything he does.

It is worth noting – there are numerous OP ED’s out recently pointing out that if Maliki really wanted reforms he would have done so long ago.

Maliki is in now in FULL DAMAGE control…

The Friday before the Mosul Report was coming out – he went to Iran to gather support. This move seems to have (temporarily) worked. This caught me a little off-guard. I didn’t think he had that kind of support from Iran once they pulled their support from his bid for a 3rd term.

He did not come back until he had some assurance of some kind – though no guarantee, he must feel he has some potential for survival.

This just goes to show you. I was told some time ago he had deep support from some very unlikely sources. It appears both Sunni leadership was “on the take” as well as some level of support from the Iranian Mullahs. Though they don’t seem to support another Maliki term – they don’t appear ready to throw him overboard just yet either. There is no guarantee they won’t though.

They have even sent Gen Qassem Soleimani into Iraq south of Baghdad to orchestrate a “quelling” of the demonstrations and supposedly to secure Maliki’s safety. However, I am not convinced his ultimate safety is Soleimani’s underlying mission.

This report of Gen. Soleimani being there is limited in it’s scope (how many times/and how it is reported) – so I view this with a healthy dose of skepticism. Also – this frantic move to maintain control over Iraq may well backfire on them. It is becoming clearer and clearer they have some agenda. This is surely not lost on the Iraqi people. Overall, they are typically not happy about external influence – US or Iranian. They don’t like it. One good thing – all of this has forced the Iranians to play their hand in a more public fashion. Now they all know…

Abadi was quoted just recently as saying…

…”the prime minister does not think now in dissent nor undo the reforms, and will not seek to raise Maliki’s name from the list of defendants fall of Mosul.”…

Meaning – he won’t take Maliki’s name out of this report… it will play out.

I don’t see – with the mounting charges, how Maliki survives this barrage. Mosul, Halabja, embezzlement from the CBI, the Speicher massacre, the prison break, it goes on and on and on…

Further – my comments regarding “Maliki as gone” – are clearly “forward looking statements” and ARE IN PROGRESS. Visible progress has been made – for now, Maliki is NOT A VP and is NOT WELCOME in official GOI meetings. Party meetings are one thing. GOI is another thing entirely.

Rather than get caught up in who’s right and who’s wrong and what the details are – what about the WHY?? WHY did Abadi move now?? Was it demonstrators?? No – I doubt it very much. Maliki can think he has everyone right where he wants them – but keep in mind this whole campaign of reform was kicked off by the WB/IMF telling Iraq to get their AML (Anti-Money Laundering) and corruption under control (both issues pointed DIRECTLY AT MALIKI). They were given until Oct 1st to get an AML law put in place. It would probably help Abadi to have an Investment Law in place as well.

Thus far Abadi has responded. Judiciary is next. He needs to keep up the pressure...

[With all the news that we have read recently, was hoping to get…input on where we are, and where we’re headed.]  … Iraq is moving forward not backwards like some are implying. Yes, I would like to see things move a bit faster… I do have some positive news but I have not had a chance to verify it from additional sources. It is very positive.

Mnt Goat – As we know Maliki traveled to Iran with a delegation from his party. I believe his intent was to defect to Iran since he also traveled with his family. Once there he was asked to return to Iraq. He is now back in Iraq…  Abadi is moving quickly on the clean up of the Judiciary system to get the Judicial Reforms implemented. This will clear the way for any obstacles for many future reform objectives including bringing Maliki and his goons to their final demise thus stopping the stalling of needed legislation to complete the Reconciliation efforts agreed to be completed by mid September. These reforms are moving lightening fast.

Millionday – Article quote:  “The International Monetary Fund forecast on Wednesday, the Iraqi economy growth of 0.5% by the end of this year, thanks to expansion in the oil sector, and increase the contraction of economic activity in the non-oil.”  THE INCREASE OF NON-OIL IS ALL OTHER PRODUCTION OTHER THAN OIL CALCULATED WITH GDP.   THE IMF FIGURES REPRESENT THE ACTIVATED REFORM RESULTS…THE IMF IS HAPPY WITH THE REFORM PACKAGE AND HAS ADJUSTED ALONG WITH REFORMS PREDICTIONS OF GROWTH FOR THIS YEAR.

Seems that if they are using the dollar then we must still be supporting them financially. If that’s the case then they don’t really need to be concerned about the Dinar’s value.]  The CBI runs auctions and uses the dollar to balance the rate. From an RV standpoint it really doesn’t matter that they are using USD and IQD. All that matters is where the CBI sets the rate, because that determines how many USD we get for each Dinar.  Long story short – their use of USD is not a bad thing for us.

Al Maliki steps into Al Hashemi’s shoes

Iraqi Prime Minister Al Abadi still has a long way to go, but he is on the right track

It is a curious twist of irony that the man who pursued the now-fugitive former Iraqi vice-president Tariq Al Hashemi may suffer a similar fate. Iraq’s former premier, and former vice-president Nouri Al Maliki is currently in Iran, where some have suggested that he may never come back from as Baghdad seeks to investigate his role in the fall of Mosul to Daesh (the self-proclaimed Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant) last year. The move was a milestone for the terror group that allowed it to gain much support among radicals around the globe, as well as territory in Iraq and Syria…

Arthur – It should now be blatantly obvious that the one missing piece to the whole RV puzzle is the lack of a Hydrocarbon Law (HCL) in Iraq to release the budget funds to the provinces as well as a myriad other items that the HCL benefits. In light of where we are in the process we can now release breaking news gathered from sources within the process.  Without going into too much minute details, the delay in the full blown release of the next round of reforms was, among other things due to the instability in the political arena in the Kurdistan region. We have information that much of that has now reached a sufficient point of closure that the next round of reforms, including the HCL is now in imminent status with the signing of some documents and release by the PTB.  We are now in a countdown to the full blown economic reform introducing the Iraqi dinar to the international community.

BGG: says to jackflash101st Mahmoud already tried to resign.

BGG: Wow –

BGG: [the report] – emphasizes that what happened before the fall of Mosul was planned by al-Maliki in order to return to power and picking the third mandate until the door drop Sunni leaders in the western regions and the declaration of emergency law that allows him to control and put the Kurdistan region with a fait accompli,

BGG: which I said over and over – no one cared much (at the time) to listen…

BGG: WOW – as I read this whole report, it strikes me, the reason Maliki is coming back (or has – or will Thursday)… reference is made to the fact, if he stays gone his political influence ends QUICKLY.

Adam Montana – [For a long while I heard that over half of the HCL was done, but it is still a HCA.  Is it in front of Parliament or are the Tarriff Laws and people getting Fired more important?]  In my opinion, the HCL is going to be done as quick as the actual RV – it won’t get back in front of Parliament until they are sure they are going to pass it, and pass it quickly. I’m not the only one who believes the HCL is the last key to seeing the RV, which leads me to think that it will be a 1-2 deal.  Go HCL, then go RV.

tman23 – The NEW CBI website is extra special…and it is proof that change is about to occur… The Kurdistan Government secured the domain .KRG and has given until October 15th for all registered business to secure their domain…and then it is open to public. The reality of the IQD speculation is going to come to light… All we can do is wait and see if we speculated correctly and it delivers the ludicrous profits we all hope for. When the iisd…international institute for sustainable development…held by the general assembly of the united nations…finishes it’s meetings then the money will be released…this is what I was told…And that you can bank on!

Mnt Goat – WOW! I can hardly believe the news this week so far. So much news this week. Are we really on the track to finally see the project to delete the zeros from the currency and get our RV? Seems that way.  So the news of this week is the coming of the second set of reforms as Abadi promised. We are beginning to see these new reforms (phase II) take shape. Be patient I believe the redenomination meaning the deletion of the zeroes is in this second set of reforms.

BGG – Article quote:   “…the mini-financial committee set up by Parliament to follow up on money laundering in the central bank file or transfer large sums of money out of the country accuse Maliki of being behind it.  Stunning news…Maliki was involved in the largest money laundering operation in Iraq…they actually pinned the Money Laundering / Embezzlement directly from the CBI ON HIM!!
______________________________________________________________

Kaperoni – Article:  “Jubouri: The second package of reforms will contain a lot of detailed important decisions”   We can see now that these various committees are being formed to present to the PM reforms. And the second package appears to begin to including banking reforms..specifically mentioned here “guarantee deposits.” This brings me to the committee that met yesterday discussing the currency… We could be seeing the beginning of many steps to improve the economy, strengthen the banking system and improve the value of the currency. It will be interesting to watch these packages of reforms over the next several weeks and how they are implemented.

tman23 – BAGHDAD — The head of the committee investigating the fall of Mosul, Hakim al-Zamili has revealed that there is no evidence to suggest KRG President Massoud Barzani or former Iraqi Parliament Speaker Osama al-Nujaifi are accountable the fall of Mosul. It had been rumoured that Barzani and al-Nujaifi were included on the list, but al-Zamili rejected the claims. President Barzani insists that he warned former PM Nouri al-Maliki about the serious threats facing northern Iraq before IS launched their 2014 attacks, but was ignored.…….. Now we wait for the reports that will expose Maliki funneling Iraqi money to Tehran…….And that I assume will go over very well with Iraqi citizens and their fondness for Tehran

wmawhite – Well, well ,well…now the U.S. News and World Report is reporting the same thing:..“US News & World Report – Iraqi selling intl bonds and redominating currency…Reacting to the crisis, Iraq plans to issues bonds worth $7 billion — $5 billion in international bonds… Iraq also revived a long-delayed plan to redenominate the Iraqi dinar by knocking three zeroes off the nominal value of its banknotes, said Ihsan Shamran al-Yassiri, the head of Iraq Central Bank Issuing and Vaults Department”  the significance is that the IQD will be on the bond market. The bond market is twice the size of all of the world’s stock markets combined.   when the IQD is on the bond market the individual bonds are able to move freely.  This is the first step of the IQD reentering the world currency markets. Exciting and nice news. [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

tman23 – The new currency must come first as a prelude to the deletion of the 3 zeros from the currency… This is the biggest statement ever made yet so often overlooked! If they are speaking of new lower denoms, then they would need a rate other then 1166…and if they come first, then the 3 zero notes will carry high value before removing the 3 zeros at the exchange window…what is the time limit…72 hrs…7 days…who knows…but it is possible! The other scenario is seeing a 50,000 note come in October…if that hits the streets then it is not looking good no matter how anyone tries to spin it… Make no mistake…the world is on the edge of financial disasters… it is real and live! There are 33 consulates now opened in Erbil… All these countries are lining up at the feeding trough…IMO it is bigger then Iraq…something BIG is being prepared… and TIME IS A FACTOR!

Frank26 – The Monetary Reform remains in front of us.  It is our opinion that Dr. S [Shabibi] will be returning but we just don’t know when.  Again, IOO (In Our Opinion) the reforms will need an RI to start them.  From the article earlier today, “Let it Float”….this will put things in the hands of the international world and with this will come a faster rise in the rate…IOO.  With the actions being taken by PM Abadi in the form of his reforms expect to see the removal of many things, people, policies, laws, etc. he will make sure that nothing stands in the way of his reforms as we move forward.

Iraq: Report on fall of Mosul to ISIS calls for ex-PM Maliki to face trial

Others implicated include former acting defense minister and Mosul’s governor



Baghdad, Reuters—
Iraq’s parliament on Monday referred to the judiciary a report calling for the trial of former prime minister Nuri Al-Maliki and dozens of other top officials in connection with the fall of Mosul to the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) last year, two lawmakers said…

Breitling – They [the CBI] are telling business and local banks to stop doing business with Iran…the main reason why is they [Iran] are trying to pump US dollars into iraq because they know they [Iraq] are trying to add value to the dinar and they [Iran] know one of the tools to keep the value of the dinar down was the US dollar…it’s a back door confirmation of what the intent is of what Iraq wants to do.   They are cutting Iran off at the knees.  It’s one thing if the CBI can scoop up those dollars and put them into the reserves…that’s a good thing but there is so much that they’re having a problem with it.  And it will keep the value of the dinar down if they don’t tackle it.

BGG – Article quote:  “President of the parliamentary Economic Committee, Dr. Haitham al-Jabouri, an elite group of advisers, experts and academics…included within the plan of economic reforms and the issue of Iraqi dinar to float where participants set Of recommendations to be submitted to the Office of the Prime Minister.”  Keep in mind…though high powered – this is a group of experts who got together and talked things over…(not the Gov of CBI or PM)…and are (or have) forwarding their idea(s) to Abadi…I am not sure “float” is the singular though – it is not impossible they could be talking about the IQD “going up”…My point is this – the translation “float” could be easily better “characterized” as “going up”…That is the STUNNER…  [Do you think its possible they still haven’t decided how they are going to do this? meaning open to suggestions?]  For sure – they haven’t even fully regained control of their own CBI yet… anything is possible.  more than whatever it is they are saying – is the “weirdly coincidental” timing of these few articles coming out…right around this “period of reform” by Abadi…this seems to be a time of “rapid change” – so things could unfold very, very quickly.

It’s going to become a democratic country – Insurgents don’t like that hipocrasy as long as they work with the new government. Our boots on the ground is to protect a new justice that’s about to come to bear.  JUSTICE….and the reinstatement of many reforms.  [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

Round Table Chat w/BGG 8-17-15

Thanks to DinarRecaps.com for posting Round Table with BGG 

BGG: Jubouri: We have no right to delete any name from Mosul report

BGG: The head of the parliament Saleem al-Jubouri, on Monday, the House of Representatives does not have the right to delete any name mentioned in the report of the fall of Mosul, while pointing out that the report was written neutrally and did not exclude a paragraph or a name and did not succumb to pressure…

BGG: This piece was all about the mention of Maliki as the key figure in the report.

BGG: he and his people wanted his name off it and those currently in charge wouldn’t take his name off…

BGG: Very cool piece.

Robl: Do we know where Maliki is at the present? Iran, Iraq?

BGG: I am suspicious – he may be in Iran.

Of course not.  Six months ago, Abadi asked Dr. Shabibi to come back – but he said not under these conditions. Once I know the banks are secure and Aleck gone and get rid of Maliki’s son too…Dr. Shabibi said if you BUILD THIS FOR ME, I’ll be back…and I see that you’ve built what I want.  …SOCIAL MEDIA, YOUTUBE…you can find “keywords” there…when you see “KEYWORD” substitute DR.

wmawhite – The discussion about what type of notes are used on the streets is totally different from a discussion about the yet to be announced international exchange rate. There will be one international exchange rate for the IQD which is only applicable outside the country. That will in turn determine the type and size of the note to be used in country.  Folks, what you can take away from this discussion and that article is that the citizens are being told to expect changes in the currency they will use on the streets and why?  Because, the IQD will be put on the world currency market and the new value of the IQD will affect the type of note they will use inside Iraq. Plain and simple. [If the IQD does float, will there be value added & then it floats or will it float from 1166? If it floats from 1166 will there be demand for the IQD at that level?]  The CBI will never tell what they will do until after it is implemented. We will know the same time the rest of the world currency markets know.   [post 2 of 2]

So that article was telling the citizens that they should expect to have additional purchasing power equal to $75.00 where it used to be only $25.00…additionally, they are being reminded that the large notes will gradually go away…but they will have 3 times the purchasing power.  the CBI has over and over emphaized that the three zeros notes will continue to be legal tender…but has to [as the?] prices in the economy are reduced the need for the large notes go away and are replaced with LDs.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

tlm724 – Article quote:  “Jubouri: The second package of reforms will contain detailed a lot of important decisions”  Quote:  “…al-Jubouri that the second package of reforms will contain a lot of detailed important decisions…that the second package of reforms will be more detailed, more mature and clearer than the first package, noting that this package will not be the last, but there will be a third package”   …so three packages of reforms, didn’t think they could all they need to do in just one.
______________________________________________________________

Aggiedad77 – Article: “Economist: deletion of zeros from the currency will reduce the dollar traded in the local market”  It would appear that we have a case of apples and oranges here…they don’t mix too well when put into a case…it was either designed for apples or for oranges, but as a mix, the lid just won’t close properly.  We even see the use of Dr. S [Shabibi] name here…saying he was ready four years ago but the project was delayed as they awaited the correct conditions…then we witnessed the ouster of Dr. S from his position as Governor of the CBI and we believe opportunities have been squandered ever since.  Well the time grows ripe again…will we see the return of Dr. S with the ouster today of keywords from his position as “acting” governor of the CBI…a job that apparently he hasn’t done too well in the eyes of PM Abadi.  Remember who appointed him…the removal of the 000’s was Dr. S’s baby…his project…but not in this manner or fashion…only the truth in action here will set any of us free…and as part of that truth keep in mind this is one person’s opinion…and he is not a part of the process that will bring Dr. S’s project to fruition.

Orders for the arrest of former Iraqi Central Bank director Sanan al-Shabibi has also been ordered…”  that doesn’t mean it’s so but we need to watch for any further developments!  all institutions are under the spot light and lets not forget that Maliki appointed Ali Alak as CBI governor after Turki.

Millionday – Article quotes: “Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi has sent two letters to the Integrity Commission to have this commission immediately begin investigating on a number of corruption files regarding Nouri Maliki and Baha al-Araji.”  “Orders for the arrest of former Iraqi Central Bank director Sanan al-Shabibi has also been ordered, according to al-Baghdadiya.”  SO OBVIOUSLY WE WILL HAVE TO SEE WHERE THIS GOES — SO I WILL SAY THE ONLY WAY THIS CAN BE VERIFIED IS THROUGH ACTION.  [Did I read that correctly!? “Orders for the arrest of former Iraqi Central Bank director Sanan al-Shabibi has also been ordered…”   I thought Abadi helped Dr. S to get out of charges late last year?]   THE HEAD OF CBI IS APPOINTED BUT WE HAVE SEEN THIS BEFORE — WE WILL HAVE TO SEE WHERE IT GOES WITH SHABIBI — I CANNOT VERIFY THIS.

Mp State law Nicole, the previous Government led by former Prime Minister and Vice-President of the Republic article Nouri al-Maliki responsible for strained state budget, at the same time revealing the presence of 300 in the State Constitution, have been distributed.

Al-kinani said in a statement: “the decisions of the Government and parliamentary reform has two dimensions, economic dimension because it represents a step towards addressing the SAG of the administrative and financial functioning of the State institutions including the Government itself, as well as another political dimension of such decisions will pave to cancel quota confessional that has made the country a standstill.”

“Prime Minister Haidar Al-Abbadi decisions timely and represent a genuine response to the will of the masses and in line with the directives of the good religious reference”…

firefly – IMO Abadi and Shabibi are in the same boat. Each is paddling in unison towards one goal.  Remember…it was Abadi that forced the courts to remove all previous charges brought on Shabibi from Maliki.  Shabibi has NEVER been OFFICIALLY replaced…just a bunch of proxy (fillers) for the position.  …according to the old constitution…the CBI Governor had to be voted in by Parliament.  Maliki to my understanding never had the power to appoint a permanent Governor.

Millionday – [So what part is yet to be done before they are ready to do the RV. I mean where do we fit in the scheme of things? ONE OF THE REPORTS WE HAD ANNOUNCED THAT WITH THE REFORM LAW BEING PASSED THE IMPORTANT LAWS WERE PASSED TOO — SO AT THIS POINT MANY THINGS ARE NOT BEING RELEASED — WE DONT HAVE A DATE OR RATE AND HAVE NOT HAD ONE OR A GUARANTEE BUT — SO MANY THINGS HAVE MOVED FORWARD FROM WHERE WE WERE — HUGE PROGRESS.
______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat – I believe Abadi has a new target – that of the Judiciary and Court System of Iraq.  Abadi must deal with the judiciary now in order to get some of these other laws passed and properly deal with much of the corruption.  So how do you judiciously deal with corruption in your ministries if the court system itself is corrupt?   …Iraq had to be sorted out by Abadi and priorities placed, a plan was designed. He is taking on one bite at a time and being cautious. He now has support (and continues) to have support of the citizens in this work that lays ahead. We know without a shadow of a doubt that there will be no RV without Amnesty and other laws. This is given facts to us. So to get these needed laws implemented Abadi must clean up the crocked judiciary system (as well as his ministers).  Abadi has gotten momentum from the protestors and so it is time now to move forward on these judicial reforms and we should all be jumping up and down with joy. We have waited soooo long for this to happen.

The Exchange Rate of Foreign Currency in Economic Feasibility Studies 

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.

Estimate the shadow price of foreign currency:…

It’s really, really bad news for the Shia/thug/hardliners…these protests asking for Medhat’s removal are a big deal – I guess maybe the biggest deal of the day.

Mnt Goat – This is my personal theory on what the CBI is ultimately is going to do – I believe they know they must float the value of the IQD and gradually let it rise. They will NOT ATTEMPT to push out a very high rate right (i.e. $3.91) initially due to the money laundering (the current CBI governor has not controlled) and the terrorists activities. The CBI does talk about starting the project to delete the zeros sometime in very early 2016. What will they ultimately do? Again my personal belief is strong that Abadi is going to clean up the CBI too and Dr Shabibi will be back as the governor of the CBI to continue his original plan as they are almost now back on track.  [post 2 of 2]

Mnt Goat – The CBI knows it must make some kind of move in the near future to go international. The pressure is enormous to do something.  So again we are seeing many articles published on debates going on about changing the dinar exchange rate.  Last week…they were debating the pros and cons of FLOATING the dinar rate and the disparity of the Iraqi dinar to other neighboring countries.  So what will they actually do?  Iraq simply can not continue to do business and move forward without a realistic currency value.  We know if they finally roll out to the international exchanges and then float the currency at a low beginning rate, it  will not be long before we see some significant value increase.  We will all then be subject to the international market rate at the banks at this point and so we can then go exchange our dinar anytime we wish and at any rate.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Shredd – Article quote:  “…which will be an important factor in creating excellent investment environment and meet the aspiration of all parties.”  That is for sure. When the investment laws are passed, that will truly open opportunities for investors who have been waiting for protections.  The banking side has come a long way regarding balances and conversion protections, and now with these laws passed, will position Iraq for some much needed stimulus. Investment = lending = borrowing = commerce = jobs = revenue = taxes.  That’s a win/win!

Meet the man trying to bring Iraq back from the brink

Riot policemen stand in front of protesters during demonstration against the poor quality of basic services, power outages and calling for trial of corrupt politicians in Baghdad

On August 16, an Iraqi parliamentary report named Iraq’s former prime minister, Nouri al-Maliki, among dozens of officials responsible for the collapse of security forces and the fall of Mosul to Islamic State militants last summer. In his eight years as premier, corruption thrived and Maliki repeatedly purged the Iraqi security forces of those he suspected of disloyalty.

Iraqis now hope that Maliki and other officials will stand trial and be held to account for why militants were able to capture the northern city with so little resistance. (Maliki dismissed the parliamentary investigation as “worthless,” and he blamed Mosul’s fall on a conspiracy by Turkish and Kurdish leaders.)…

tman23 – BAGHDAD – Coordinators of recent protests in provinces throughout Iraq are fearing for their lives, as four have already been assassinated. Al Jazeera claimed that the victims were assassinated in retaliation for their role in the demonstrations. Iraqi civil rights activis Odai Zaydi, claimed that political parties are responsible for the assassinations “as they are originally against the establishment of a democratic government in Iraq.”……….  EXACTLY WHY……Laws are contested and delayed…. The whole idea of Iraq was a democracy in the Middle East……but the hardliners favor “regimes”……..And as Abadi said…. it may cost him his life BUT he is moving forward with reforms and democracy for the citizens of Iraq.

______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat – I will say that we are heading for a great window of opportunity for an RV come mid September and onward. Abadi’s government had until mid September to implement the needed laws to support the necessary reforms, as these reforms are part of his promises made during the negotiations to allow him to take control of the government and to be seated as the new prime minister.  Also, resulting from a second Paris Conference in mid June, they also gave him 90 more days to complete the reforms (on corruption) and get in place other laws to support the economy (i.e Investment law and Banking laws, anti-Laundering laws, etc).  I believe that if he can be successful we may also see the currency reform finally implemented.  Again I am telling you the RV is a by-product of this reform process and not the means in itself.  They desperately need these reforms prior to any RV.

BGG – [HAS ABADI PASSED SECOND SET OF REFORMS?]  I don’t think so – just the initial batch have been given the OK by Parliament…   I thought the ML law was read once and some speculation is the Investment Law will kick off Monday or shortly there after (reportedly).  I think they will go pretty quick…the WB/IMF only gave them until Oct 1? Right? I doubt they let it boil down to the last minute.  [do they still have to be published in the gazette to be law in its final state?]  of course – but with the obstructionists gone – the gazette will again be a formality – not a hurdle.  Abadi is clearly reacting.

Mnt Goat – They are also telling us that money laundering and corruption in regards to the currency float is the major obstacle.  They have passed the Parties Law this week and they are pushing aggressively towards the Judicial Reforms next week, the National Guard Law (maybe tomorrow). We know by passing the Parties law anyone alleged of criminal activity (or under investigation) can no longer hold office or receive immunity. This is HUGE for insuring the downturn of Maliki.  So why is money laundering so important all of a sudden? Do they want billions of dinar going into the wrong hands when the value increases? Is the RV then dependent on this part of currency reform?  NO REFORMS NO RV…  [post 2 of 2]

American Contractor – Washingston Post Article 8/18/15 Quote:  “Iraq also revived a long-delayed plan to redenominate the Iraqi dinar by knocking three zeroes off the nominal value of its banknotes, said Ihsan Shamran al-Yassiri, the head of Iraq Central Bank Issuing and Vaults Department. The plan is set to be implemented by 2017 after restructuring dinar by issuing two large banknotes – a 50,000 dinar note before the end of this year and 100,000 banknote next year – and canceling small ones.”   Small Iraq Bank notes will be canceled soon says Central Bank…the 250, 500, and 1,000 bank notes will be removed…there are not that many in circulation.

How can a currency that is not traded world wide and is already at a false low be devalued?]  Bloomberg did not say the Iraqi currency would be devalued…it was interesting Bloomberg was even talking about it – but their tone, tenor and confused looks ought to be enough to convince you that most of what “the experts” say is speculative double talk…and if Iraq gets Maliki tossed out it will likely “depeg” (float) and go UP IMMEDIATELY (if what they were saying is right).

firefly – Contrary to popular belief …They will NEVER hold a press conference to announce the RI/RV!  They will announce events that should indicate that something is up.   So far the 3 laws I’m looking for have NOT been IMPLEMENTED…yet.  The most important of the 3 IMO is the anti-money laundering law.  Tariff Law IMO will be AFTER the fact. Border Tariffs! Investment Law is crucial as well.  Those 3 effect the Global economy. Yes many laws are still needing implementation for the nation of Iraq but not for the monetary reform.  HCL is very much needed for IRAQ!  Could it be put off? Of course it can…for much longer?  IMO…heck no!  IMO it will be a “Domino Effect”.  Yes, we are definitely in the moment of a historic event.  STOP looking for dates and windows…Timing my friends…TIMING!

It is likely that the resignation of Sinead be a prelude to re-seat parliament to al-Maliki after limbering included government office in addition to the pursuit of obtaining the legal immunity…”  just because they say they are giving Maliki a seat – or someone is giving up their seat (more like Maliki bought it) means he will retain immunity – or they won’t arrest him anyway… especially with the crimes he is CLEARLY accused of.  There is plenty of precedent for him to have his “immunity” lifted and be arrested immediately – this is a weak tactic… but it tells you a lot about the struggle going on right now.

I think there was an article earlier that said that he was going to.]  NOT ACCORDING TO REPORTS THAT I HAVE CONFIDENCE IN — REFORMS ARE IN THE PROCESS ALREADY BY WHAT I READ.

Mnt Goat – Part of this effort will also be cleaning house in the CBI including the changeover from the proxy governor Ali al-Alaq to Dr. Sinan al-Shabibi.  I have evidence that speaks strongly that corruption must be cleaned out of the current CBI first before we will see any currency reform.
I assure you the process is already in play. The men on the chess board are about to be moved around.  So this week looks very good. I expect announcements of some of the recent reforms and Reconciliation legislation signed into law. Also I suspect this week or in the next couple weeks, we are once again some movement into a fantastic window of opportunity to see a change in the currency value of Iraq...I feel we are at the very near end to this RV saga.  [post 2 of 2]

Aggiedad77 – Article:  “Supreme religious authority: a battle of destiny and to speed up reforms to hold accountable corrupt”  Here comes another not so subliminal message from the Iraqi clerics to PM Abadi…we need to clean up the judiciary to ensure when those accused of corruption are brought to trial there is no question as to the honesty and integrity of the judges hearing the cases…we need to push for more speed with the reforms that are being laid before the Iraqi people…make good decisions, make them quick, and move forward.

Delta – [“THE ECONOMIC REFORMS HAVE BEGUN — THEY ARE TO SATISFY THE CITIZENS AND ALSO ADDRESS NOT ONLY THE DOMESTIC — BUT THE GLOBAL SCALE.”   …that was supposedly released to the citizens Sunday am with 48 hours to implement. Is this news correct and if so if its to satisfy on a global scale could this be pointing to a rate change?]  YES THAT’S CORRECT…BUT KEEP IN MIND 48 HRS FOR IRAQ COULD MEAN A MONTH.

Analysts: al-Maliki at war again after being convicted of the report of Mosul

http://www.dinarupdates.com/showthread.php?18174-Analysts-al-Maliki-at-war-again-after-being-convicted-of-the-report-of-Mosul&p=128045&viewfull=1#post128045

BGG Notes:

Maliki came back from Iran where he met with most of his most ardent Shia supporters (not all Shias support him – as before).

The Dawa party (and Maliki) “facially supports” these recent reforms called for by the Iraqi Clerics and the demonstrators (the people)… However, it’s a political tactic. He needs to look like..

“HE’S THE REFORMER”, or at least line himself up with the reforms…

Then there’s these rants blaming Erbil and Turkey for the fall of Mosul. Maliki must think no one remembers Barzani going to the press when Maliki wouldn’t listen about ISIS on the move.

There are articles out that affirm they put the SLC at Abadi’s disposal… again a weak showing of being “on the side of reforms” – not the “focus of the reforms”…

On the other hand Maliki is secretly attempting to subvert Abadi  everything he does.

It is worth noting – there are numerous OP ED’s out recently pointing out that if Maliki really wanted reforms he would have done so long ago.

Maliki is in now in FULL DAMAGE control…

The Friday before the Mosul Report was coming out – he went to Iran to gather support. This move seems to have (temporarily) worked. This caught me a little off-guard. I didn’t think he had that kind of support from Iran once they pulled their support from his bid for a 3rd term.

He did not come back until he had some assurance of some kind – though no guarantee, he must feel he has some potential for survival.

This just goes to show you. I was told some time ago he had deep support from some very unlikely sources. It appears both Sunni leadership was “on the take” as well as some level of support from the Iranian Mullahs. Though they don’t seem to support another Maliki term – they don’t appear ready to throw him overboard just yet either. There is no guarantee they won’t though.

They have even sent Gen Qassem Soleimani into Iraq south of Baghdad to orchestrate a “quelling” of the demonstrations and supposedly to secure Maliki’s safety. However, I am not convinced his ultimate safety is Soleimani’s underlying mission.

This report of Gen. Soleimani being there is limited in it’s scope (how many times/and how it is reported) – so I view this with a healthy dose of skepticism. Also – this frantic move to maintain control over Iraq may well backfire on them. It is becoming clearer and clearer they have some agenda. This is surely not lost on the Iraqi people. Overall, they are typically not happy about external influence – US or Iranian. They don’t like it. One good thing – all of this has forced the Iranians to play their hand in a more public fashion. Now they all know…

Abadi was quoted just recently as saying…

…”the prime minister does not think now in dissent nor undo the reforms, and will not seek to raise Maliki’s name from the list of defendants fall of Mosul.”…

Meaning – he won’t take Maliki’s name out of this report… it will play out.

I don’t see – with the mounting charges, how Maliki survives this barrage. Mosul, Halabja, embezzlement from the CBI, the Speicher massacre, the prison break, it goes on and on and on…

Further – my comments regarding “Maliki as gone” – are clearly “forward looking statements” and ARE IN PROGRESS. Visible progress has been made – for now, Maliki is NOT A VP and is NOT WELCOME in official GOI meetings. Party meetings are one thing. GOI is another thing entirely.

Rather than get caught up in who’s right and who’s wrong and what the details are – what about the WHY?? WHY did Abadi move now?? Was it demonstrators?? No – I doubt it very much. Maliki can think he has everyone right where he wants them – but keep in mind this whole campaign of reform was kicked off by the WB/IMF telling Iraq to get their AML (Anti-Money Laundering) and corruption under control (both issues pointed DIRECTLY AT MALIKI). They were given until Oct 1st to get an AML law put in place. It would probably help Abadi to have an Investment Law in place as well.

Thus far Abadi has responded. Judiciary is next. He needs to keep up the pressure...

SteveI – This is very complex and I had no clue as to all of the things that have to get done and be in place. A huge undertaking. [With all the news that we have read recently, was hoping to get…input on where we are, and where we’re headed.]  … Iraq is moving forward not backwards like some are implying. Yes, I would like to see things move a bit faster… I do have some positive news but I have not had a chance to verify it from additional sources. It is very positive.
______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat – As we know Maliki traveled to Iran with a delegation from his party. I believe his intent was to defect to Iran since he also traveled with his family. Once there he was asked to return to Iraq. He is now back in Iraq…  Abadi is moving quickly on the clean up of the Judiciary system to get the Judicial Reforms implemented. This will clear the way for any obstacles for many future reform objectives including bringing Maliki and his goons to their final demise thus stopping the stalling of needed legislation to complete the Reconciliation efforts agreed to be completed by mid September. These reforms are moving lightening fast.

Millionday – Article quote:  “The International Monetary Fund forecast on Wednesday, the Iraqi economy growth of 0.5% by the end of this year, thanks to expansion in the oil sector, and increase the contraction of economic activity in the non-oil.”  THE INCREASE OF NON-OIL IS ALL OTHER PRODUCTION OTHER THAN OIL CALCULATED WITH GDP.   THE IMF FIGURES REPRESENT THE ACTIVATED REFORM RESULTS…THE IMF IS HAPPY WITH THE REFORM PACKAGE AND HAS ADJUSTED ALONG WITH REFORMS PREDICTIONS OF GROWTH FOR THIS YEAR.

Seems that if they are using the dollar then we must still be supporting them financially. If that’s the case then they don’t really need to be concerned about the Dinar’s value.]  The CBI runs auctions and uses the dollar to balance the rate. From an RV standpoint it really doesn’t matter that they are using USD and IQD. All that matters is where the CBI sets the rate, because that determines how many USD we get for each Dinar.  Long story short – their use of USD is not a bad thing for us.

Al Maliki steps into Al Hashemi’s shoes

Iraqi Prime Minister Al Abadi still has a long way to go, but he is on the right track

It is a curious twist of irony that the man who pursued the now-fugitive former Iraqi vice-president Tariq Al Hashemi may suffer a similar fate. Iraq’s former premier, and former vice-president Nouri Al Maliki is currently in Iran, where some have suggested that he may never come back from as Baghdad seeks to investigate his role in the fall of Mosul to Daesh (the self-proclaimed Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant) last year. The move was a milestone for the terror group that allowed it to gain much support among radicals around the globe, as well as territory in Iraq and Syria…

Arthur – It should now be blatantly obvious that the one missing piece to the whole RV puzzle is the lack of a Hydrocarbon Law (HCL) in Iraq to release the budget funds to the provinces as well as a myriad other items that the HCL benefits. In light of where we are in the process we can now release breaking news gathered from sources within the process.  Without going into too much minute details, the delay in the full blown release of the next round of reforms was, among other things due to the instability in the political arena in the Kurdistan region. We have information that much of that has now reached a sufficient point of closure that the next round of reforms, including the HCL is now in imminent status with the signing of some documents and release by the PTB.  We are now in a countdown to the full blown economic reform introducing the Iraqi dinar to the international community.

THAT DECISION AGAIN SEEMS TO BE IN THE COURT OF THE IMF.

My Ladies – SO ALL OF THIS AND NOW THE IMF HOLDING ON THE BASKET IMPLEMENTATION TELLS US THAT WE SHOULD SEE AN EXCHANGE RATE NOW-ISH WITH A DOLLAR PEG ON PAR WITH THE INDEX AND THEN LATER WHEN EVERYONE BEGINS THE SWITCH TO THE SDR THEY WILL HAVE TO DO WHAT? [Do not let go of your dinar until it depegs from the usd and pegs to the sdr next year.]  RIGHT…SO THE MORAL OF THE STORY HERE IS DO NOT EXCHANGE YOUR DINAR ALL AT ONCE! THEY ARE TELLING US THEY NEED UNTIL 2017…  IMF IS TELLING US THEY NEED UNTIL, THE END OF 2016 IRAQ NEEDS TO PUT ON TRAINING WHEELS AND BECOME CONVERTIBLE NOW SO THEY WILL DO THAT WITH A DOLLAR PEG, BUT THEN LATER WHEN THEY HAVE ALL THEIR CORRECT CURRENCY AND ARE READY TO TAKE OFF THE TRAINING WHEELS THEY WILL PEG TO THE BASK AT A REALITY RATE REFLECTING THEIR GDP BY THEN AND THEY WILL HAVE A NEW PERMANENT RATE.  WE SHOULD SEE A RATE NOW ISH BUT NOT A SDR VALUE UNTIL THEY SWITCH PEGS…A 2 STEP PROCESS. [with a peg to USD at par would be $1 IQD to $1 USD right?]    WELL SORT OF…BUT I THINK THE INDEX IS 0.98 NOW.  [post 2 of 2]

BGG: says to jackflash101st Sounds like it – who knows how that will end.
BGG: says to jackflash101st Mahmoud already tried to resign.

BGG: Wow –

BGG: [the report] – emphasizes that what happened before the fall of Mosul was planned by al-Maliki in order to return to power and picking the third mandate until the door drop Sunni leaders in the western regions and the declaration of emergency law that allows him to control and put the Kurdistan region with a fait accompli,

BGG: which I said over and over – no one cared much (at the time) to listen…

BGG: WOW – as I read this whole report, it strikes me, the reason Maliki is coming back (or has – or will Thursday)… reference is made to the fact, if he stays gone his political influence ends QUICKLY.

Adam Montana – [For a long while I heard that over half of the HCL was done, but it is still a HCA.  Is it in front of Parliament or are the Tarriff Laws and people getting Fired more important?]  In my opinion, the HCL is going to be done as quick as the actual RV – it won’t get back in front of Parliament until they are sure they are going to pass it, and pass it quickly. I’m not the only one who believes the HCL is the last key to seeing the RV, which leads me to think that it will be a 1-2 deal.  Go HCL, then go RV.

Kaperoni – Article:  “Jubouri: The second package of reforms will contain a lot of detailed important decisions”   We can see now that these various committees are being formed to present to the PM reforms. And the second package appears to begin to including banking reforms..specifically mentioned here “guarantee deposits.” This brings me to the committee that met yesterday discussing the currency… We could be seeing the beginning of many steps to improve the economy, strengthen the banking system and improve the value of the currency. It will be interesting to watch these packages of reforms over the next several weeks and how they are implemented.

tman23 – BAGHDAD — The head of the committee investigating the fall of Mosul, Hakim al-Zamili has revealed that there is no evidence to suggest KRG President Massoud Barzani or former Iraqi Parliament Speaker Osama al-Nujaifi are accountable the fall of Mosul. It had been rumoured that Barzani and al-Nujaifi were included on the list, but al-Zamili rejected the claims. President Barzani insists that he warned former PM Nouri al-Maliki about the serious threats facing northern Iraq before IS launched their 2014 attacks, but was ignored.…….. Now we wait for the reports that will expose Maliki funneling Iraqi money to Tehran…….And that I assume will go over very well with Iraqi citizens and their fondness for Tehran

wmawhite – Well, well ,well…now the U.S. News and World Report is reporting the same thing:..“US News & World Report – Iraqi selling intl bonds and redominating currency…Reacting to the crisis, Iraq plans to issues bonds worth $7 billion — $5 billion in international bonds… Iraq also revived a long-delayed plan to redenominate the Iraqi dinar by knocking three zeroes off the nominal value of its banknotes, said Ihsan Shamran al-Yassiri, the head of Iraq Central Bank Issuing and Vaults Department”  the significance is that the IQD will be on the bond market. The bond market is twice the size of all of the world’s stock markets combined.   when the IQD is on the bond market the individual bonds are able to move freely.  This is the first step of the IQD reentering the world currency markets. Exciting and nice news.

tman23 – The new currency must come first as a prelude to the deletion of the 3 zeros from the currency… This is the biggest statement ever made yet so often overlooked! If they are speaking of new lower denoms, then they would need a rate other then 1166…and if they come first, then the 3 zero notes will carry high value before removing the 3 zeros at the exchange window…what is the time limit…72 hrs…7 days…who knows…but it is possible! The other scenario is seeing a 50,000 note come in October…if that hits the streets then it is not looking good no matter how anyone tries to spin it… Make no mistake…the world is on the edge of financial disasters… it is real and live! There are 33 consulates now opened in Erbil… All these countries are lining up at the feeding trough…IMO it is bigger then Iraq…something BIG is being prepared… and TIME IS A FACTOR!

Frank26 – The Monetary Reform remains in front of us.  It is our opinion that Dr. S [Shabibi] will be returning but we just don’t know when.  Again, IOO (In Our Opinion) the reforms will need an RI to start them.  From the article earlier today, “Let it Float”….this will put things in the hands of the international world and with this will come a faster rise in the rate…IOO.  With the actions being taken by PM Abadi in the form of his reforms expect to see the removal of many things, people, policies, laws, etc. he will make sure that nothing stands in the way of his reforms as we move forward.

Iraq: Report on fall of Mosul to ISIS calls for ex-PM Maliki to face trial

Breitling – They [the CBI] are telling business and local banks to stop doing business with Iran…the main reason why is they [Iran] are trying to pump US dollars into iraq because they know they [Iraq] are trying to add value to the dinar and they [Iran] know one of the tools to keep the value of the dinar down was the US dollar…it’s a back door confirmation of what the intent is of what Iraq wants to do.   They are cutting Iran off at the knees.  It’s one thing if the CBI can scoop up those dollars and put them into the reserves…that’s a good thing but there is so much that they’re having a problem with it.  And it will keep the value of the dinar down if they don’t tackle it.

BGG: The head of the parliament Saleem al-Jubouri, on Monday, the House of Representatives does not have the right to delete any name mentioned in the report of the fall of Mosul, while pointing out that the report was written neutrally and did not exclude a paragraph or a name and did not succumb to pressure…

BGG: This piece was all about the mention of Maliki as the key figure in the report.

BGG: he and his people wanted his name off it and those currently in charge wouldn’t take his name off…

BGG: Very cool piece.

Robl: Do we know where Maliki is at the present? Iran, Iraq?

wmawhite – The discussion about what type of notes are used on the streets is totally different from a discussion about the yet to be announced international exchange rate. There will be one international exchange rate for the IQD which is only applicable outside the country. That will in turn determine the type and size of the note to be used in country.  Folks, what you can take away from this discussion and that article is that the citizens are being told to expect changes in the currency they will use on the streets and why?  Because, the IQD will be put on the world currency market and the new value of the IQD will affect the type of note they will use inside Iraq. Plain and simple. [If the IQD does float, will there be value added & then it floats or will it float from 1166? If it floats from 1166 will there be demand for the IQD at that level?]  The CBI will never tell what they will do until after it is implemented.

Poppy3 – Article quote: “the largest category of cash is Al25,000 dinars, which is equal to $ 22, in the case of deletion of zeros and converted to 25 dinars Vstsawi of $ 75…”     IN OCT. 2010 THE IMF POSTED ON THEIR WEB SITE THAT AGREEMENT WITH IRAQ WAS REACHED ON THE EXCHANGE RATE OF THE DINAR ( 4 YRS AGO ) OF $3.22 AND POSSIBLY UP TO 20% FOR INFLATION OVER THE TIME OF THE WAR WHICH HAS RISEN HIGHLY OVER THE LAST 4 YEARS. THIS IS OLD NEWS TO THOSE OF US THAT HAVE ONLY LISTENED TO THE AUTHORITY FOR INFORMATION. YES IT IS EXCITING TO SEE ALL IS STILL THE SAME AND NOW ACTIONS ARE SHOWING IT IS HAPPENING.

wmawhite – Article quote:  “the largest category of cash is Al25,000 dinars, which is equal to $ 22, in the case of deletion of zeros and converted to 25 dinars Vstsawi of $ 75…”  ...this is telling the citizens that the 25K note that is currently treated as $25 in the shops will be worth $75 in the future.  This is very good.

Millionday – [and so we care…why?]  BECAUSE THE IMPACT OF THE REMOVAL IS ALSO THE EXCHANGE OF ALL DINAR — INSIDE AND OUT OF THE COUNTRY AND WILL ALSO DETERMINE THE EXCHANGE RATES TO ALL COUNTRIES THE RESULT THIS BRINGS IS EXCITING TO US.  THE EXCHANGE REGULATIONS WILL BE RELEASED — TIMING ETC THAT THEY HAVE SET — AND THE DINAR WILL BE SOLD FOR WHATEVER INTERNATIONAL VALUE THERE IS…THIS IS HUGE HUGE AS THIS IS ALL PART OF THE EXCHANGE OF THE DINAR.  [when is the deleting of zeros going to happen?]   THIS SAYS THE CONDITION FOR IT HAS BEEN ACHIEVED — SO ANYTIME ACCORDING TO THE REPORT.   [post 3 of 3]

Millionday – THIS IS TO THE CITIZENS AND SHOWING THEM THE VALUE OF THE BUYING VALUE THAT WILL COME FROM THE REMOVAL OF THE THREE ZEROS — THIS IS A HUGE RISE IN IRAQ BUT IS NOT THE RELEASED INTERNATIONAL VALUE OF THE EXCHANGE RATE — IT IS AN EXPLANATION OF THE BUYING POWER OF THEIR DINAR IN COUNTRY AND IS HUGE…I DONT WANT YOU TO CONFUSE THE TWO THIS IS A HUGE LEAP IN THEIR ECONOMY AND WILL MAKE THE DINAR MUCH MORE POWERFUL BUT NOT THE MATH FOR THE EXCHANGE RATE HERE BUT THE RESULT IS THE IMPACT ON THE INTERNATIONAL RATES WHEN THEY ENTER THE MARKET ECONOMY — THAT DETERMINES THE COST OF THE VALUABLE DINAR TO EVERYONE AND THE PRICE OF EXCHANGE ETC GREAT — THIS IS GOOD NEWS BUT NOT A VALUE ON FOREX TO US OR ANYONE ELSE.  [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

Millionday – THE DELETION OF THE THREE ZERO CURRENCY WAS SUPPOSED TO OCCUR 4 YEARS AGO… SHABIBI WAS SUPPOSED TO MOVE FORWARD WITH IT BUT WAS UNABLE TO HOLD THE PROPER POSITION TO ACTIVATE — NOW ANOTHER IS GOING TO DO IT…DUE TO >>>APPROPRIATE CONDITIONS —WHOOPOW.   NOW HOLD YOUR HAT AND GET YOUR MATH HAT ON…HERE IT COMES… Quote: “He explained that “the largest category of cash is Al25,000 dinars, which is equal to $ 22, in the case of deletion of zeros and converted to 25 dinars Vstsawi of $ 75…” ACCORDING TO THIS IT IS SAYING 25K WILL BRING 75$ WITH THE EXCHANGE…NO GUARANTEES…IT IS NOT A PROMISE JUST A REPORT  [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]

BGG – Article quote:   “He explained that “the largest category of cash is Al25,000 dinars, which is equal to $ 22, in the case of deletion of zeros and converted to 25 dinars Vstsawi of $ 75, this process will give the larger size of the local currency and reduce the use of the dollar in the domestic market.”   Did this guy just say 3:1? Sounds like what he is trying to say…Wow?!?  Not that I agree – but that sounds like what he is saying.   [why do you not agree?]  current conditions…seems like a big jump… I am a spectator and will be happy with added value…My dream is added value – a move, because once it goes “we’re in”!   and it is very odd timing this kind of OP ED by economists are coming out RIGHT AFTER Maliki is being dealt with…that is more curious to me than the numbers – the timing.

Kaperoni – Article:  “Economist: deletion of zeros from the currency will reduce the dollar traded in the local market”  Quote:  “He explained that “the largest category of cash is Al25,000 dinars, which is equal to $ 22, in the case of deletion of zeros and converted to 25 dinars Vstsawi of $ 75, this process will give the larger size of the local currency and reduce the use of the dollar in the domestic market.”  He wants a $3+ exchange rate.

THATS GREAT.  [And a major threat from the world bank.] WELL THE WORLD BANK HAS HISTORICALLY BEEN VERY LENIENT BUT THE PRESSURE IS ON TO SHOW ACTION.  [At least Abadi is taking it seriously.]  …HE IS AND HAS BEEN SERIOUS EVERYDAY SINCE HE TOOK OVER. HE HAD THE GOI AND PARLIAMENT WORK 5 MONTHS STRAIGHT WITHOUT A DAY OFF…SAID THEY WOULD NOT STOP PROGRESS TILL ALL IS COMPLETED INCLUDING ALL FINANCIAL REFORM INCLUDING THE NEW RATE.  […after waiting all these years i have never felt more promising of this currency especially in the last year.]  ME ALSO.  [post 2 of 2]

tlm724 – Article quote:  “Jubouri: The second package of reforms will contain detailed a lot of important decisions”  Quote:  “…al-Jubouri that the second package of reforms will contain a lot of detailed important decisions…that the second package of reforms will be more detailed, more mature and clearer than the first package, noting that this package will not be the last, but there will be a third package”   …so three packages of reforms, didn’t think they could all they need to do in just one.
______________________________________________________________

Aggiedad77 – Article: “Economist: deletion of zeros from the currency will reduce the dollar traded in the local market”  It would appear that we have a case of apples and oranges here…they don’t mix too well when put into a case…it was either designed for apples or for oranges, but as a mix, the lid just won’t close properly.  We even see the use of Dr. S [Shabibi] name here…saying he was ready four years ago but the project was delayed as they awaited the correct conditions…then we witnessed the ouster of Dr. S from his position as Governor of the CBI and we believe opportunities have been squandered ever since.  Well the time grows ripe again…will we see the return of Dr. S with the ouster today of keywords from his position as “acting” governor of the CBI…a job that apparently he hasn’t done too well in the eyes of PM Abadi.  Remember who appointed him…the removal of the 000’s was Dr. S’s baby…his project…but not in this manner or fashion…only the truth in action here will set any of us free…and as part of that truth keep in mind this is one person’s opinion…and he is not a part of the process that will bring Dr. S’s project to fruition.
______________________________________________________________

firefly – This is a VERY complicated process. Watch for events not dates.  […what events should we be watching for now?]   I’m looking for the IMPLEMENTATION of certain laws…Necessary for the reform to succeed without flaw.  [Mosal and Anbar, International Law, Tarriffs, Amnesty, Implementation…]  and a few more!  The anti money laundering law is crucial…Investment Law!  Tariffs will probably be after the fact IMO.   …the meeting last Saturday went extremely well!  Everything started moving at lightning speed on Sunday correct?  I’m focused on Abadi and the CBI…period… end of story.  [how much time you think…? I will not do dates or windows…but SOON has an entirely new meaning now IMO.

tlm724 – Article quote:  “Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi has sent two letters to the Integrity Commission to have this commission immediately begin investigating on a number of corruption files”   I have been waiting for this!  Quote:  “According to these sources Haider al-Abadi has emphasized on opening the corruption files of Ahmad Maliki, the son of Maliki. Orders for the arrest of former Iraqi Central Bank director Sanan al-Shabibi has also been ordered…”  that doesn’t mean it’s so but we need to watch for any further developments!  all institutions are under the spot light and lets not forget that Maliki appointed Ali Alak as CBI governor after Turki.

Millionday – Article quotes: “Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi has sent two letters to the Integrity Commission to have this commission immediately begin investigating on a number of corruption files regarding Nouri Maliki and Baha al-Araji.”  “Orders for the arrest of former Iraqi Central Bank director Sanan al-Shabibi has also been ordered, according to al-Baghdadiya.”  SO OBVIOUSLY WE WILL HAVE TO SEE WHERE THIS GOES — SO I WILL SAY THE ONLY WAY THIS CAN BE VERIFIED IS THROUGH ACTION.  [Did I read that correctly!? “Orders for the arrest of former Iraqi Central Bank director Sanan al-Shabibi has also been ordered…”   I thought Abadi helped Dr. S to get out of charges late last year?]   THE HEAD OF CBI IS APPOINTED BUT WE HAVE SEEN THIS BEFORE — WE WILL HAVE TO SEE WHERE IT GOES WITH SHABIBI — I CANNOT VERIFY THIS.

After his dismissal State law turned on Al-Maliki. It acknowledges responsibility for financial budgets and loss!!

Mp State law Nicole, the previous Government led by former Prime Minister and Vice-President of the Republic article Nouri al-Maliki responsible for strained state budget, at the same time revealing the presence of 300 in the State Constitution, have been distributed.

Al-kinani said in a statement: “the decisions of the Government and parliamentary reform has two dimensions, economic dimension because it represents a step towards addressing the SAG of the administrative and financial functioning of the State institutions including the Government itself, as well as another political dimension of such decisions will pave to cancel quota confessional that has made the country a standstill.”

“Prime Minister Haidar Al-Abbadi decisions timely and represent a genuine response to the will of the masses and in line with the directives of the good religious reference”…

BGG – [How long do you think it will take to remove Alak?]  that is the last piece of the puzzle – if you are asking me – doesn’t sound like long…there was also a SCATHING PIECE about Alak being a child and not at all qualified to be the Gov of the CBI.  Quite honestly – the happenings in Iraq are breathtaking…there is a lot going on all at once.  [The next week will be interesting to see how CBI plays out.]  the next week should be very interesting indeed.

Millionday – [Do you have any idea when they will implement the border tariffs and the International Bonds?] THEY HAVE STATED THIS MONTH BUT THE BEST WAY TO BE SURE IS TO WATCH IT HAPPEN IMO.
______________________________________________________________

firefly – IMO Abadi and Shabibi are in the same boat. Each is paddling in unison towards one goal.  Remember…it was Abadi that forced the courts to remove all previous charges brought on Shabibi from Maliki.  Shabibi has NEVER been OFFICIALLY replaced…just a bunch of proxy (fillers) for the position.  …according to the old constitution…the CBI Governor had to be voted in by Parliament.  Maliki to my understanding never had the power to appoint a permanent Governor.

Millionday – [So what part is yet to be done before they are ready to do the RV. I mean where do we fit in the scheme of things? ONE OF THE REPORTS WE HAD ANNOUNCED THAT WITH THE REFORM LAW BEING PASSED THE IMPORTANT LAWS WERE PASSED TOO — SO AT THIS POINT MANY THINGS ARE NOT BEING RELEASED — WE DONT HAVE A DATE OR RATE AND HAVE NOT HAD ONE OR A GUARANTEE BUT — SO MANY THINGS HAVE MOVED FORWARD FROM WHERE WE WERE — HUGE PROGRESS.
______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat – I believe Abadi has a new target – that of the Judiciary and Court System of Iraq.  Abadi must deal with the judiciary now in order to get some of these other laws passed and properly deal with much of the corruption.  So how do you judiciously deal with corruption in your ministries if the court system itself is corrupt?   …Iraq had to be sorted out by Abadi and priorities placed, a plan was designed. He is taking on one bite at a time and being cautious. He now has support (and continues) to have support of the citizens in this work that lays ahead. We know without a shadow of a doubt that there will be no RV without Amnesty and other laws. This is given facts to us. So to get these needed laws implemented Abadi must clean up the crocked judiciary system (as well as his ministers).  Abadi has gotten momentum from the protestors and so it is time now to move forward on these judicial reforms and we should all be jumping up and down with joy. We have waited soooo long for this to happen.

The Exchange Rate of Foreign Currency in Economic Feasibility Studies 

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.

Estimate the shadow price of foreign currency:…

Millionday – THE BANKING FORUM IS IN TWO WEEKS AND IS A PRESENTATION OF IRAQ`S ECONOMIC REALITY AND THE BANKING DEVELOPMENTS — OBVIOUSLY INTERNATIONAL AS IT IS A GLOBAL FORUM.  THE OPERATION OF INTERNATIONAL BANKING WILL BE REVEALED.  SO THIS IS TO BE RELEASED INFORMATION OF THE NEW BANKING REFORM OBVIOUSLY DUE TO THE CONTENT AND FOR IT TO BE IN JUST TWO WEEKS — THIS IS EXCITING.  THE INTERNATIONAL BANKING SHOULD LOGICALLY COME AFTER INTERNATIONAL ACCEPTANCE.  THE DINAR SHOULD BE INTERNATIONALLY ACCEPTED BEFORE GLOBAL BANKING BUT WE WILL HAVE TO WAIT ON INK.  
______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat – I will say that we are heading for a great window of opportunity for an RV come mid September and onward. Abadi’s government had until mid September to implement the needed laws to support the necessary reforms, as these reforms are part of his promises made during the negotiations to allow him to take control of the government and to be seated as the new prime minister.  Also, resulting from a second Paris Conference in mid June, they also gave him 90 more days to complete the reforms (on corruption) and get in place other laws to support the economy (i.e Investment law and Banking laws, anti-Laundering laws, etc).  I believe that if he can be successful we may also see the currency reform finally implemented.  Again I am telling you the RV is a by-product of this reform process and not the means in itself.  They desperately need these reforms prior to any RV.

Bluedog – NATIONAL GUARD LAW…I SAID LAST JANUARY 2014 THAT THIS WOULD BE THE KEY…CAUSE NO INVESTORS TILL PROTECTED.  IRAQ NEEDS TO SHOW INVESTOR THEY CONTROL ALL OF IRAQ AND NEED TO DO THAT FAST…SO NEED THAT LAW FAST.  THEN CBI CAN MOVE FORWARD.  FORGET ALL OTHER LAWS THEY WILL FOLLOW THIS…EVERYONE SAID OR THOUGHT WHAT DOES THAT LAW HAVE TO DO WITH ANYTHING…WELL YOU WILL FIND OUT YOU CANNOT SUPPORT THIS LAW WITHOUT A CHANGE IN CURRENCY REFORM…I LOOK AT HCL AS BOGAS PROPAGANDA… NATIONAL GUARD LAW IS WHAT WE HAVE WAITED FOR SO HCL COULD FOLLOW…AND CURRENCY REFORM ALSO…JIMO.

I doubt they let it boil down to the last minute.  [do they still have to be published in the gazette to be law in its final state?]  of course – but with the obstructionists gone – the gazette will again be a formality – not a hurdle.  Abadi is clearly reacting.

Aggiedad77 – Article:  “Oil drop may be forced Iraq to reduce its currency”   The global issues associated with the falling oil prices are believed to be impacting Iraq as well…so says one expert from Bloomberg today…the oil issues coupled with the continued fighting to free Iraq from the clutches of ISIS/DAASH terrorists are draining the country to the point that its reserves have fallen 20% in recent months to stand at $59 billion dollars…war is never a cheap venture…and it is proving to be an expensive issue for Iraq today…keep in mind too that this is but one opinion of what could transpire for Iraq into the near future…no doubt their dependency on oil for revenues is critical and affecting their financial world in a big way.

Mnt Goat – They are also telling us that money laundering and corruption in regards to the currency float is the major obstacle.  They have passed the Parties Law this week and they are pushing aggressively towards the Judicial Reforms next week, the National Guard Law (maybe tomorrow). We know by passing the Parties law anyone alleged of criminal activity (or under investigation) can no longer hold office or receive immunity. This is HUGE for insuring the downturn of Maliki.  So why is money laundering so important all of a sudden? Do they want billions of dinar going into the wrong hands when the value increases? Is the RV then dependent on this part of currency reform?  NO REFORMS NO RV…  [post 2 of 2]

American Contractor – Washingston Post Article 8/18/15 Quote:  “Iraq also revived a long-delayed plan to redenominate the Iraqi dinar by knocking three zeroes off the nominal value of its banknotes, said Ihsan Shamran al-Yassiri, the head of Iraq Central Bank Issuing and Vaults Department. The plan is set to be implemented by 2017 after restructuring dinar by issuing two large banknotes – a 50,000 dinar note before the end of this year and 100,000 banknote next year – and canceling small ones.”   Small Iraq Bank notes will be canceled soon says Central Bank…the 250, 500, and 1,000 bank notes will be removed…there are not that many in circulation.

How can a currency that is not traded world wide and is already at a false low be devalued?]  Bloomberg did not say the Iraqi currency would be devalued…it was interesting Bloomberg was even talking about it – but their tone, tenor and confused looks ought to be enough to convince you that most of what “the experts” say is speculative double talk…and if Iraq gets Maliki tossed out it will likely “depeg” (float) and go UP IMMEDIATELY (if what they were saying is right).

Investment Law is crucial as well.  Those 3 effect the Global economy. Yes many laws are still needing implementation for the nation of Iraq but not for the monetary reform.  HCL is very much needed for IRAQ!  Could it be put off? Of course it can…for much longer?  IMO…heck no!  IMO it will be a “Domino Effect”.  Yes, we are definitely in the moment of a historic event.  STOP looking for dates and windows…Timing my friends…TIMING!

It is likely that the resignation of Sinead be a prelude to re-seat parliament to al-Maliki after limbering included government office in addition to the pursuit of obtaining the legal immunity…”  just because they say they are giving Maliki a seat – or someone is giving up their seat (more like Maliki bought it) means he will retain immunity – or they won’t arrest him anyway… especially with the crimes he is CLEARLY accused of.  There is plenty of precedent for him to have his “immunity” lifted and be arrested immediately – this is a weak tactic… but it tells you a lot about the struggle going on right now.

I assure you the process is already in play. The men on the chess board are about to be moved around.  So this week looks very good. I expect announcements of some of the recent reforms and Reconciliation legislation signed into law. Also I suspect this week or in the next couple weeks, we are once again some movement into a fantastic window of opportunity to see a change in the currency value of Iraq...I feel we are at the very near end to this RV saga.  [post 2 of 2]

Analysts: al-Maliki at war again after being convicted of the report of Mosul

http://www.dinarupdates.com/showthread.php?18174-Analysts-al-Maliki-at-war-again-after-being-convicted-of-the-report-of-Mosul&p=128045&viewfull=1#post128045

BGG Notes:

Maliki came back from Iran where he met with most of his most ardent Shia supporters (not all Shias support him – as before).

The Dawa party (and Maliki) “facially supports” these recent reforms called for by the Iraqi Clerics and the demonstrators (the people)… However, it’s a political tactic. He needs to look like..

“HE’S THE REFORMER”, or at least line himself up with the reforms…

Then there’s these rants blaming Erbil and Turkey for the fall of Mosul. Maliki must think no one remembers Barzani going to the press when Maliki wouldn’t listen about ISIS on the move.

There are articles out that affirm they put the SLC at Abadi’s disposal… again a weak showing of being “on the side of reforms” – not the “focus of the reforms”…

On the other hand Maliki is secretly attempting to subvert Abadi  everything he does.

It is worth noting – there are numerous OP ED’s out recently pointing out that if Maliki really wanted reforms he would have done so long ago.

Maliki is in now in FULL DAMAGE control…

The Friday before the Mosul Report was coming out – he went to Iran to gather support. This move seems to have (temporarily) worked. This caught me a little off-guard. I didn’t think he had that kind of support from Iran once they pulled their support from his bid for a 3rd term.

He did not come back until he had some assurance of some kind – though no guarantee, he must feel he has some potential for survival.

This just goes to show you. I was told some time ago he had deep support from some very unlikely sources. It appears both Sunni leadership was “on the take” as well as some level of support from the Iranian Mullahs. Though they don’t seem to support another Maliki term – they don’t appear ready to throw him overboard just yet either. There is no guarantee they won’t though.

They have even sent Gen Qassem Soleimani into Iraq south of Baghdad to orchestrate a “quelling” of the demonstrations and supposedly to secure Maliki’s safety. However, I am not convinced his ultimate safety is Soleimani’s underlying mission.

This report of Gen. Soleimani being there is limited in it’s scope (how many times/and how it is reported) – so I view this with a healthy dose of skepticism. Also – this frantic move to maintain control over Iraq may well backfire on them. It is becoming clearer and clearer they have some agenda. This is surely not lost on the Iraqi people. Overall, they are typically not happy about external influence – US or Iranian. They don’t like it. One good thing – all of this has forced the Iranians to play their hand in a more public fashion. Now they all know…

Abadi was quoted just recently as saying…

…”the prime minister does not think now in dissent nor undo the reforms, and will not seek to raise Maliki’s name from the list of defendants fall of Mosul.”…

Meaning – he won’t take Maliki’s name out of this report… it will play out.

I don’t see – with the mounting charges, how Maliki survives this barrage. Mosul, Halabja, embezzlement from the CBI, the Speicher massacre, the prison break, it goes on and on and on…

Further – my comments regarding “Maliki as gone” – are clearly “forward looking statements” and ARE IN PROGRESS. Visible progress has been made – for now, Maliki is NOT A VP and is NOT WELCOME in official GOI meetings. Party meetings are one thing. GOI is another thing entirely.

Rather than get caught up in who’s right and who’s wrong and what the details are – what about the WHY?? WHY did Abadi move now?? Was it demonstrators?? No – I doubt it very much. Maliki can think he has everyone right where he wants them – but keep in mind this whole campaign of reform was kicked off by the WB/IMF telling Iraq to get their AML (Anti-Money Laundering) and corruption under control (both issues pointed DIRECTLY AT MALIKI). They were given until Oct 1st to get an AML law put in place. It would probably help Abadi to have an Investment Law in place as well.

Thus far Abadi has responded. Judiciary is next. He needs to keep up the pressure...

BGG – [How will $40 oil affect an RV…at one time it was said that $100 oil was needed?]   IMHO – not at all, I don’t agree with $100 oil being required. In fact, if one ascribes to a “short move” or “emergency currency reform” as a short term budget deficit “bridge” – then $40 oil is not a problem – but a catalyst for change.

Breitling – Just going by math and looking at what’s going on in Iraq….I haven’t seen anything negative.   There is nothing out there stopping this.  It’s simply not going to happen.   Iraqi people need purchasing power.  But the CBI has to do it correctly.  They can’t just push a button and all of a sudden there is value behind their currency.  They have to make sure it can be stable and it can grow and they can control it…that’s the most important thing.  Other countries and companies won’t invest in Iraq unless it has that type of control.  [Post 2 of 2]

SteveI – This is very complex and I had no clue as to all of the things that have to get done and be in place. A huge undertaking. [With all the news that we have read recently, was hoping to get…input on where we are, and where we’re headed.]  … Iraq is moving forward not backwards like some are implying. Yes, I would like to see things move a bit faster… I do have some positive news but I have not had a chance to verify it from additional sources. It is very positive.
______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat – As we know Maliki traveled to Iran with a delegation from his party. I believe his intent was to defect to Iran since he also traveled with his family. Once there he was asked to return to Iraq. He is now back in Iraq…  Abadi is moving quickly on the clean up of the Judiciary system to get the Judicial Reforms implemented. This will clear the way for any obstacles for many future reform objectives including bringing Maliki and his goons to their final demise thus stopping the stalling of needed legislation to complete the Reconciliation efforts agreed to be completed by mid September. These reforms are moving lightening fast.
______________________________________________________________

Millionday – Article quote:  “The International Monetary Fund forecast on Wednesday, the Iraqi economy growth of 0.5% by the end of this year, thanks to expansion in the oil sector, and increase the contraction of economic activity in the non-oil.”  THE INCREASE OF NON-OIL IS ALL OTHER PRODUCTION OTHER THAN OIL CALCULATED WITH GDP.   THE IMF FIGURES REPRESENT THE ACTIVATED REFORM RESULTS…THE IMF IS HAPPY WITH THE REFORM PACKAGE AND HAS ADJUSTED ALONG WITH REFORMS PREDICTIONS OF GROWTH FOR THIS YEAR.

Seems that if they are using the dollar then we must still be supporting them financially. If that’s the case then they don’t really need to be concerned about the Dinar’s value.]  The CBI runs auctions and uses the dollar to balance the rate. From an RV standpoint it really doesn’t matter that they are using USD and IQD. All that matters is where the CBI sets the rate, because that determines how many USD we get for each Dinar.  Long story short – their use of USD is not a bad thing for us.

Al Maliki steps into Al Hashemi’s shoes

Iraqi Prime Minister Al Abadi still has a long way to go, but he is on the right track

It is a curious twist of irony that the man who pursued the now-fugitive former Iraqi vice-president Tariq Al Hashemi may suffer a similar fate. Iraq’s former premier, and former vice-president Nouri Al Maliki is currently in Iran, where some have suggested that he may never come back from as Baghdad seeks to investigate his role in the fall of Mosul to Daesh (the self-proclaimed Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant) last year. The move was a milestone for the terror group that allowed it to gain much support among radicals around the globe, as well as territory in Iraq and Syria…

Arthur – It should now be blatantly obvious that the one missing piece to the whole RV puzzle is the lack of a Hydrocarbon Law (HCL) in Iraq to release the budget funds to the provinces as well as a myriad other items that the HCL benefits. In light of where we are in the process we can now release breaking news gathered from sources within the process.  Without going into too much minute details, the delay in the full blown release of the next round of reforms was, among other things due to the instability in the political arena in the Kurdistan region. We have information that much of that has now reached a sufficient point of closure that the next round of reforms, including the HCL is now in imminent status with the signing of some documents and release by the PTB.  We are now in a countdown to the full blown economic reform introducing the Iraqi dinar to the international community.

Backdoc – WE ALL HAVE TO BE SO ENCOURAGED BY THE REFORM PROGRESS OCCURRING AT BLINDING SPEED. WELCOME TO DEMOCRACY IRAQ!  WITH IRAQI INTERNATIONAL BONDS ABOUT TO BE SOLD A RATE APPEARS TO BE A CERTAINTY IN THE NEXT FEW DAYS OR WEEKS. SO WHEN WILL THE BONDS BE SOLD? THAT DECISION AGAIN SEEMS TO BE IN THE COURT OF THE IMF.
______________________________________________________________

My Ladies – SO ALL OF THIS AND NOW THE IMF HOLDING ON THE BASKET IMPLEMENTATION TELLS US THAT WE SHOULD SEE AN EXCHANGE RATE NOW-ISH WITH A DOLLAR PEG ON PAR WITH THE INDEX AND THEN LATER WHEN EVERYONE BEGINS THE SWITCH TO THE SDR THEY WILL HAVE TO DO WHAT? [Do not let go of your dinar until it depegs from the usd and pegs to the sdr next year.]  RIGHT…SO THE MORAL OF THE STORY HERE IS DO NOT EXCHANGE YOUR DINAR ALL AT ONCE! THEY ARE TELLING US THEY NEED UNTIL 2017…  IMF IS TELLING US THEY NEED UNTIL, THE END OF 2016 IRAQ NEEDS TO PUT ON TRAINING WHEELS AND BECOME CONVERTIBLE NOW SO THEY WILL DO THAT WITH A DOLLAR PEG, BUT THEN LATER WHEN THEY HAVE ALL THEIR CORRECT CURRENCY AND ARE READY TO TAKE OFF THE TRAINING WHEELS THEY WILL PEG TO THE BASK AT A REALITY RATE REFLECTING THEIR GDP BY THEN AND THEY WILL HAVE A NEW PERMANENT RATE.  WE SHOULD SEE A RATE NOW ISH BUT NOT A SDR VALUE UNTIL THEY SWITCH PEGS…A 2 STEP PROCESS. [with a peg to USD at par would be $1 IQD to $1 USD right?]    WELL SORT OF…BUT I THINK THE INDEX IS 0.98 NOW.  [post 2 of 2]

Thanks to DinarRecaps.com for posting Round Table with BGG!!

BGG: says to jackflash101st Sounds like it – who knows how that will end.
BGG: says to jackflash101st Mahmoud already tried to resign.

BGG: Wow –

BGG: [the report] – emphasizes that what happened before the fall of Mosul was planned by al-Maliki in order to return to power and picking the third mandate until the door drop Sunni leaders in the western regions and the declaration of emergency law that allows him to control and put the Kurdistan region with a fait accompli,

BGG: which I said over and over – no one cared much (at the time) to listen…

BGG: WOW – as I read this whole report, it strikes me, the reason Maliki is coming back (or has – or will Thursday)… reference is made to the fact, if he stays gone his political influence ends QUICKLY.

Adam Montana – [For a long while I heard that over half of the HCL was done, but it is still a HCA.  Is it in front of Parliament or are the Tarriff Laws and people getting Fired more important?]  In my opinion, the HCL is going to be done as quick as the actual RV – it won’t get back in front of Parliament until they are sure they are going to pass it, and pass it quickly. I’m not the only one who believes the HCL is the last key to seeing the RV, which leads me to think that it will be a 1-2 deal.  Go HCL, then go RV.

tman23 – The NEW CBI website is extra special…and it is proof that change is about to occur… The Kurdistan Government secured the domain .KRG and has given until October 15th for all registered business to secure their domain…and then it is open to public. The reality of the IQD speculation is going to come to light… All we can do is wait and see if we speculated correctly and it delivers the ludicrous profits we all hope for. When the iisd…international institute for sustainable development…held by the general assembly of the united nations…finishes it’s meetings then the money will be released…this is what I was told…And that you can bank on!

Seems that way.  So the news of this week is the coming of the second set of reforms as Abadi promised. We are beginning to see these new reforms (phase II) take shape. Be patient I believe the redenomination meaning the deletion of the zeroes is in this second set of reforms.

______________________________________________________________

Kaperoni – Article:  “Jubouri: The second package of reforms will contain a lot of detailed important decisions”   We can see now that these various committees are being formed to present to the PM reforms. And the second package appears to begin to including banking reforms..specifically mentioned here “guarantee deposits.” This brings me to the committee that met yesterday discussing the currency… We could be seeing the beginning of many steps to improve the economy, strengthen the banking system and improve the value of the currency. It will be interesting to watch these packages of reforms over the next several weeks and how they are implemented.

tman23 – BAGHDAD — The head of the committee investigating the fall of Mosul, Hakim al-Zamili has revealed that there is no evidence to suggest KRG President Massoud Barzani or former Iraqi Parliament Speaker Osama al-Nujaifi are accountable the fall of Mosul. It had been rumoured that Barzani and al-Nujaifi were included on the list, but al-Zamili rejected the claims. President Barzani insists that he warned former PM Nouri al-Maliki about the serious threats facing northern Iraq before IS launched their 2014 attacks, but was ignored.…….. Now we wait for the reports that will expose Maliki funneling Iraqi money to Tehran…….And that I assume will go over very well with Iraqi citizens and their fondness for Tehran

wmawhite – Well, well ,well…now the U.S. News and World Report is reporting the same thing:..“US News & World Report – Iraqi selling intl bonds and redominating currency…Reacting to the crisis, Iraq plans to issues bonds worth $7 billion — $5 billion in international bonds… Iraq also revived a long-delayed plan to redenominate the Iraqi dinar by knocking three zeroes off the nominal value of its banknotes, said Ihsan Shamran al-Yassiri, the head of Iraq Central Bank Issuing and Vaults Department”  the significance is that the IQD will be on the bond market. The bond market is twice the size of all of the world’s stock markets combined.   when the IQD is on the bond market the individual bonds are able to move freely.  This is the first step of the IQD reentering the world currency markets. Exciting and nice news. [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

tman23 – The new currency must come first as a prelude to the deletion of the 3 zeros from the currency… This is the biggest statement ever made yet so often overlooked! If they are speaking of new lower denoms, then they would need a rate other then 1166…and if they come first, then the 3 zero notes will carry high value before removing the 3 zeros at the exchange window…what is the time limit…72 hrs…7 days…who knows…but it is possible! The other scenario is seeing a 50,000 note come in October…if that hits the streets then it is not looking good no matter how anyone tries to spin it… Make no mistake…the world is on the edge of financial disasters… it is real and live! There are 33 consulates now opened in Erbil… All these countries are lining up at the feeding trough…IMO it is bigger then Iraq…something BIG is being prepared… and TIME IS A FACTOR!

Frank26 – The Monetary Reform remains in front of us.  It is our opinion that Dr. S [Shabibi] will be returning but we just don’t know when.  Again, IOO (In Our Opinion) the reforms will need an RI to start them.  From the article earlier today, “Let it Float”….this will put things in the hands of the international world and with this will come a faster rise in the rate…IOO.  With the actions being taken by PM Abadi in the form of his reforms expect to see the removal of many things, people, policies, laws, etc. he will make sure that nothing stands in the way of his reforms as we move forward.

Iraq: Report on fall of Mosul to ISIS calls for ex-PM Maliki to face trial

Others implicated include former acting defense minister and Mosul’s governor

Iraq’s parliament on Monday referred to the judiciary a report calling for the trial of former prime minister Nuri Al-Maliki and dozens of other top officials in connection with the fall of Mosul to the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) last year, two lawmakers said…

Breitling – They [the CBI] are telling business and local banks to stop doing business with Iran…the main reason why is they [Iran] are trying to pump US dollars into iraq because they know they [Iraq] are trying to add value to the dinar and they [Iran] know one of the tools to keep the value of the dinar down was the US dollar…it’s a back door confirmation of what the intent is of what Iraq wants to do.   They are cutting Iran off at the knees.  It’s one thing if the CBI can scoop up those dollars and put them into the reserves…that’s a good thing but there is so much that they’re having a problem with it.  And it will keep the value of the dinar down if they don’t tackle it.

BGG: Jubouri: We have no right to delete any name from Mosul report

BGG: The head of the parliament Saleem al-Jubouri, on Monday, the House of Representatives does not have the right to delete any name mentioned in the report of the fall of Mosul, while pointing out that the report was written neutrally and did not exclude a paragraph or a name and did not succumb to pressure…

BGG: This piece was all about the mention of Maliki as the key figure in the report.

BGG: he and his people wanted his name off it and those currently in charge wouldn’t take his name off…

BGG: Very cool piece.

Robl: Do we know where Maliki is at the present? Iran, Iraq?

BGG: I am suspicious – he may be in Iran.

wmawhite – The discussion about what type of notes are used on the streets is totally different from a discussion about the yet to be announced international exchange rate. There will be one international exchange rate for the IQD which is only applicable outside the country. That will in turn determine the type and size of the note to be used in country.  Folks, what you can take away from this discussion and that article is that the citizens are being told to expect changes in the currency they will use on the streets and why?  Because, the IQD will be put on the world currency market and the new value of the IQD will affect the type of note they will use inside Iraq. Plain and simple. [If the IQD does float, will there be value added & then it floats or will it float from 1166? If it floats from 1166 will there be demand for the IQD at that level?]  The CBI will never tell what they will do until after it is implemented. We will know the same time the rest of the world currency markets know.   [post 2 of 2]

Millionday – [and so we care…why?]  BECAUSE THE IMPACT OF THE REMOVAL IS ALSO THE EXCHANGE OF ALL DINAR — INSIDE AND OUT OF THE COUNTRY AND WILL ALSO DETERMINE THE EXCHANGE RATES TO ALL COUNTRIES THE RESULT THIS BRINGS IS EXCITING TO US.  THE EXCHANGE REGULATIONS WILL BE RELEASED — TIMING ETC THAT THEY HAVE SET — AND THE DINAR WILL BE SOLD FOR WHATEVER INTERNATIONAL VALUE THERE IS…THIS IS HUGE HUGE AS THIS IS ALL PART OF THE EXCHANGE OF THE DINAR.  [when is the deleting of zeros going to happen?]   THIS SAYS THE CONDITION FOR IT HAS BEEN ACHIEVED — SO ANYTIME ACCORDING TO THE REPORT.   [post 3 of 3]

Millionday – THIS IS TO THE CITIZENS AND SHOWING THEM THE VALUE OF THE BUYING VALUE THAT WILL COME FROM THE REMOVAL OF THE THREE ZEROS — THIS IS A HUGE RISE IN IRAQ BUT IS NOT THE RELEASED INTERNATIONAL VALUE OF THE EXCHANGE RATE — IT IS AN EXPLANATION OF THE BUYING POWER OF THEIR DINAR IN COUNTRY AND IS HUGE…I DONT WANT YOU TO CONFUSE THE TWO THIS IS A HUGE LEAP IN THEIR ECONOMY AND WILL MAKE THE DINAR MUCH MORE POWERFUL BUT NOT THE MATH FOR THE EXCHANGE RATE HERE BUT THE RESULT IS THE IMPACT ON THE INTERNATIONAL RATES WHEN THEY ENTER THE MARKET ECONOMY — THAT DETERMINES THE COST OF THE VALUABLE DINAR TO EVERYONE AND THE PRICE OF EXCHANGE ETC GREAT — THIS IS GOOD NEWS BUT NOT A VALUE ON FOREX TO US OR ANYONE ELSE.  [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

Millionday – THE DELETION OF THE THREE ZERO CURRENCY WAS SUPPOSED TO OCCUR 4 YEARS AGO… SHABIBI WAS SUPPOSED TO MOVE FORWARD WITH IT BUT WAS UNABLE TO HOLD THE PROPER POSITION TO ACTIVATE — NOW ANOTHER IS GOING TO DO IT…DUE TO >>>APPROPRIATE CONDITIONS —WHOOPOW.   NOW HOLD YOUR HAT AND GET YOUR MATH HAT ON…HERE IT COMES… Quote: “He explained that “the largest category of cash is Al25,000 dinars, which is equal to $ 22, in the case of deletion of zeros and converted to 25 dinars Vstsawi of $ 75…” ACCORDING TO THIS IT IS SAYING 25K WILL BRING 75$ WITH THE EXCHANGE…NO GUARANTEES…IT IS NOT A PROMISE JUST A REPORT  [post 1 of 3….stay tuned]

Sounds like what he is trying to say…Wow?!?  Not that I agree – but that sounds like what he is saying.   [why do you not agree?]  current conditions…seems like a big jump… I am a spectator and will be happy with added value…My dream is added value – a move, because once it goes “we’re in”!   and it is very odd timing this kind of OP ED by economists are coming out RIGHT AFTER Maliki is being dealt with…that is more curious to me than the numbers – the timing.

______________________________________________________________

Aggiedad77 – Article: “Economist: deletion of zeros from the currency will reduce the dollar traded in the local market”  It would appear that we have a case of apples and oranges here…they don’t mix too well when put into a case…it was either designed for apples or for oranges, but as a mix, the lid just won’t close properly.  We even see the use of Dr. S [Shabibi] name here…saying he was ready four years ago but the project was delayed as they awaited the correct conditions…then we witnessed the ouster of Dr. S from his position as Governor of the CBI and we believe opportunities have been squandered ever since.  Well the time grows ripe again…will we see the return of Dr. S with the ouster today of keywords from his position as “acting” governor of the CBI…a job that apparently he hasn’t done too well in the eyes of PM Abadi.  Remember who appointed him…the removal of the 000’s was Dr. S’s baby…his project…but not in this manner or fashion…only the truth in action here will set any of us free…and as part of that truth keep in mind this is one person’s opinion…and he is not a part of the process that will bring Dr. S’s project to fruition.

Orders for the arrest of former Iraqi Central Bank director Sanan al-Shabibi has also been ordered…”  that doesn’t mean it’s so but we need to watch for any further developments!  all institutions are under the spot light and lets not forget that Maliki appointed Ali Alak as CBI governor after Turki.

Millionday – Article quotes: “Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi has sent two letters to the Integrity Commission to have this commission immediately begin investigating on a number of corruption files regarding Nouri Maliki and Baha al-Araji.”  “Orders for the arrest of former Iraqi Central Bank director Sanan al-Shabibi has also been ordered, according to al-Baghdadiya.”  SO OBVIOUSLY WE WILL HAVE TO SEE WHERE THIS GOES — SO I WILL SAY THE ONLY WAY THIS CAN BE VERIFIED IS THROUGH ACTION.  [Did I read that correctly!? “Orders for the arrest of former Iraqi Central Bank director Sanan al-Shabibi has also been ordered…”   I thought Abadi helped Dr. S to get out of charges late last year?]   THE HEAD OF CBI IS APPOINTED BUT WE HAVE SEEN THIS BEFORE — WE WILL HAVE TO SEE WHERE IT GOES WITH SHABIBI — I CANNOT VERIFY THIS.

After his dismissal State law turned on Al-Maliki. It acknowledges responsibility for financial budgets and loss!!

Mp State law Nicole, the previous Government led by former Prime Minister and Vice-President of the Republic article Nouri al-Maliki responsible for strained state budget, at the same time revealing the presence of 300 in the State Constitution, have been distributed.

Al-kinani said in a statement: “the decisions of the Government and parliamentary reform has two dimensions, economic dimension because it represents a step towards addressing the SAG of the administrative and financial functioning of the State institutions including the Government itself, as well as another political dimension of such decisions will pave to cancel quota confessional that has made the country a standstill.”

“Prime Minister Haidar Al-Abbadi decisions timely and represent a genuine response to the will of the masses and in line with the directives of the good religious reference”…

BGG – [How long do you think it will take to remove Alak?]  that is the last piece of the puzzle – if you are asking me – doesn’t sound like long…there was also a SCATHING PIECE about Alak being a child and not at all qualified to be the Gov of the CBI.  Quite honestly – the happenings in Iraq are breathtaking…there is a lot going on all at once.  [The next week will be interesting to see how CBI plays out.]  the next week should be very interesting indeed.

Millionday – [Do you have any idea when they will implement the border tariffs and the International Bonds?] THEY HAVE STATED THIS MONTH BUT THE BEST WAY TO BE SURE IS TO WATCH IT HAPPEN IMO.

firefly – IMO Abadi and Shabibi are in the same boat. Each is paddling in unison towards one goal.  Remember…it was Abadi that forced the courts to remove all previous charges brought on Shabibi from Maliki.  Shabibi has NEVER been OFFICIALLY replaced…just a bunch of proxy (fillers) for the position.  …according to the old constitution…the CBI Governor had to be voted in by Parliament.  Maliki to my understanding never had the power to appoint a permanent Governor.

Millionday – [So what part is yet to be done before they are ready to do the RV. I mean where do we fit in the scheme of things? ONE OF THE REPORTS WE HAD ANNOUNCED THAT WITH THE REFORM LAW BEING PASSED THE IMPORTANT LAWS WERE PASSED TOO — SO AT THIS POINT MANY THINGS ARE NOT BEING RELEASED — WE DONT HAVE A DATE OR RATE AND HAVE NOT HAD ONE OR A GUARANTEE BUT — SO MANY THINGS HAVE MOVED FORWARD FROM WHERE WE WERE — HUGE PROGRESS.
______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat – I believe Abadi has a new target – that of the Judiciary and Court System of Iraq.  Abadi must deal with the judiciary now in order to get some of these other laws passed and properly deal with much of the corruption.  So how do you judiciously deal with corruption in your ministries if the court system itself is corrupt?   …Iraq had to be sorted out by Abadi and priorities placed, a plan was designed. He is taking on one bite at a time and being cautious. He now has support (and continues) to have support of the citizens in this work that lays ahead. We know without a shadow of a doubt that there will be no RV without Amnesty and other laws. This is given facts to us. So to get these needed laws implemented Abadi must clean up the crocked judiciary system (as well as his ministers).  Abadi has gotten momentum from the protestors and so it is time now to move forward on these judicial reforms and we should all be jumping up and down with joy. We have waited soooo long for this to happen.

I doubt they let it boil down to the last minute.  [do they still have to be published in the gazette to be law in its final state?]  of course – but with the obstructionists gone – the gazette will again be a formality – not a hurdle.  Abadi is clearly reacting.

Mnt Goat – They are also telling us that money laundering and corruption in regards to the currency float is the major obstacle.  They have passed the Parties Law this week and they are pushing aggressively towards the Judicial Reforms next week, the National Guard Law (maybe tomorrow). We know by passing the Parties law anyone alleged of criminal activity (or under investigation) can no longer hold office or receive immunity. This is HUGE for insuring the downturn of Maliki.  So why is money laundering so important all of a sudden? Do they want billions of dinar going into the wrong hands when the value increases? Is the RV then dependent on this part of currency reform?  NO REFORMS NO RV…  [post 2 of 2]

House of Representatives voted unanimously on a law on political parties

Long-Presse / Baghdad – The voice of the Iraqi Council of Representatives on Thursday unanimously passed a bill on political parties after 13 years on regime change in Iraq.

A parliamentary source said in an interview to the (long-Presse), “The House of Representatives voted during its 16th legislative term of the first second legislative year, which was held today, on the draft political parties law.”

The source, who asked not to be named, said: “vote is unanimous.”…

American Contractor – Washingston Post Article 8/18/15 Quote:  “Iraq also revived a long-delayed plan to redenominate the Iraqi dinar by knocking three zeroes off the nominal value of its banknotes, said Ihsan Shamran al-Yassiri, the head of Iraq Central Bank Issuing and Vaults Department. The plan is set to be implemented by 2017 after restructuring dinar by issuing two large banknotes – a 50,000 dinar note before the end of this year and 100,000 banknote next year – and canceling small ones.”   Small Iraq Bank notes will be canceled soon says Central Bank…the 250, 500, and 1,000 bank notes will be removed…there are not that many in circulation.

Investment Law is crucial as well.  Those 3 effect the Global economy. Yes many laws are still needing implementation for the nation of Iraq but not for the monetary reform.  HCL is very much needed for IRAQ!  Could it be put off?

I assure you the process is already in play. The men on the chess board are about to be moved around.  So this week looks very good. I expect announcements of some of the recent reforms and Reconciliation legislation signed into law. Also I suspect this week or in the next couple weeks, we are once again some movement into a fantastic window of opportunity to see a change in the currency value of Iraq...I feel we are at the very near end to this RV saga.  [post 2 of 2]

Analysts: al-Maliki at war again after being convicted of the report of Mosul

http://www.dinarupdates.com/showthread.php?18174-Analysts-al-Maliki-at-war-again-after-being-convicted-of-the-report-of-Mosul&p=128045&viewfull=1#post128045

BGG Notes:

Maliki came back from Iran where he met with most of his most ardent Shia supporters (not all Shias support him – as before).

The Dawa party (and Maliki) “facially supports” these recent reforms called for by the Iraqi Clerics and the demonstrators (the people)… However, it’s a political tactic. He needs to look like..

“HE’S THE REFORMER”, or at least line himself up with the reforms…

Then there’s these rants blaming Erbil and Turkey for the fall of Mosul. Maliki must think no one remembers Barzani going to the press when Maliki wouldn’t listen about ISIS on the move.

There are articles out that affirm they put the SLC at Abadi’s disposal… again a weak showing of being “on the side of reforms” – not the “focus of the reforms”…

On the other hand Maliki is secretly attempting to subvert Abadi  everything he does.

It is worth noting – there are numerous OP ED’s out recently pointing out that if Maliki really wanted reforms he would have done so long ago.

Maliki is in now in FULL DAMAGE control…

The Friday before the Mosul Report was coming out – he went to Iran to gather support. This move seems to have (temporarily) worked. This caught me a little off-guard. I didn’t think he had that kind of support from Iran once they pulled their support from his bid for a 3rd term.

He did not come back until he had some assurance of some kind – though no guarantee, he must feel he has some potential for survival.

This just goes to show you. I was told some time ago he had deep support from some very unlikely sources. It appears both Sunni leadership was “on the take” as well as some level of support from the Iranian Mullahs. Though they don’t seem to support another Maliki term – they don’t appear ready to throw him overboard just yet either. There is no guarantee they won’t though.

They have even sent Gen Qassem Soleimani into Iraq south of Baghdad to orchestrate a “quelling” of the demonstrations and supposedly to secure Maliki’s safety. However, I am not convinced his ultimate safety is Soleimani’s underlying mission.

This report of Gen. Soleimani being there is limited in it’s scope (how many times/and how it is reported) – so I view this with a healthy dose of skepticism. Also – this frantic move to maintain control over Iraq may well backfire on them. It is becoming clearer and clearer they have some agenda. This is surely not lost on the Iraqi people. Overall, they are typically not happy about external influence – US or Iranian. They don’t like it. One good thing – all of this has forced the Iranians to play their hand in a more public fashion. Now they all know…

Abadi was quoted just recently as saying…

…”the prime minister does not think now in dissent nor undo the reforms, and will not seek to raise Maliki’s name from the list of defendants fall of Mosul.”…

Meaning – he won’t take Maliki’s name out of this report… it will play out.

I don’t see – with the mounting charges, how Maliki survives this barrage. Mosul, Halabja, embezzlement from the CBI, the Speicher massacre, the prison break, it goes on and on and on…

Further – my comments regarding “Maliki as gone” – are clearly “forward looking statements” and ARE IN PROGRESS. Visible progress has been made – for now, Maliki is NOT A VP and is NOT WELCOME in official GOI meetings. Party meetings are one thing. GOI is another thing entirely.

Rather than get caught up in who’s right and who’s wrong and what the details are – what about the WHY?? WHY did Abadi move now?? Was it demonstrators?? No – I doubt it very much. Maliki can think he has everyone right where he wants them – but keep in mind this whole campaign of reform was kicked off by the WB/IMF telling Iraq to get their AML (Anti-Money Laundering) and corruption under control (both issues pointed DIRECTLY AT MALIKI). They were given until Oct 1st to get an AML law put in place. It would probably help Abadi to have an Investment Law in place as well.

Thus far Abadi has responded. Judiciary is next. He needs to keep up the pressure...

BGG – [How will $40 oil affect an RV…at one time it was said that $100 oil was needed?]   IMHO – not at all, I don’t agree with $100 oil being required. In fact, if one ascribes to a “short move” or “emergency currency reform” as a short term budget deficit “bridge” – then $40 oil is not a problem – but a catalyst for change.

[With all the news that we have read recently, was hoping to get…input on where we are, and where we’re headed.]  … Iraq is moving forward not backwards like some are implying. Yes, I would like to see things move a bit faster… I do have some positive news but I have not had a chance to verify it from additional sources. It is very positive.
______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat – As we know Maliki traveled to Iran with a delegation from his party. I believe his intent was to defect to Iran since he also traveled with his family. Once there he was asked to return to Iraq. He is now back in Iraq…  Abadi is moving quickly on the clean up of the Judiciary system to get the Judicial Reforms implemented. This will clear the way for any obstacles for many future reform objectives including bringing Maliki and his goons to their final demise thus stopping the stalling of needed legislation to complete the Reconciliation efforts agreed to be completed by mid September. These reforms are moving lightening fast.

Millionday – Article quote:  “The International Monetary Fund forecast on Wednesday, the Iraqi economy growth of 0.5% by the end of this year, thanks to expansion in the oil sector, and increase the contraction of economic activity in the non-oil.”  THE INCREASE OF NON-OIL IS ALL OTHER PRODUCTION OTHER THAN OIL CALCULATED WITH GDP.   THE IMF FIGURES REPRESENT THE ACTIVATED REFORM RESULTS…THE IMF IS HAPPY WITH THE REFORM PACKAGE AND HAS ADJUSTED ALONG WITH REFORMS PREDICTIONS OF GROWTH FOR THIS YEAR.

Seems that if they are using the dollar then we must still be supporting them financially. If that’s the case then they don’t really need to be concerned about the Dinar’s value.]  The CBI runs auctions and uses the dollar to balance the rate. From an RV standpoint it really doesn’t matter that they are using USD and IQD. All that matters is where the CBI sets the rate, because that determines how many USD we get for each Dinar.  Long story short – their use of USD is not a bad thing for us.

Al Maliki steps into Al Hashemi’s shoes

Iraqi Prime Minister Al Abadi still has a long way to go, but he is on the right track

It is a curious twist of irony that the man who pursued the now-fugitive former Iraqi vice-president Tariq Al Hashemi may suffer a similar fate. Iraq’s former premier, and former vice-president Nouri Al Maliki is currently in Iran, where some have suggested that he may never come back from as Baghdad seeks to investigate his role in the fall of Mosul to Daesh (the self-proclaimed Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant) last year. The move was a milestone for the terror group that allowed it to gain much support among radicals around the globe, as well as territory in Iraq and Syria…

Arthur – It should now be blatantly obvious that the one missing piece to the whole RV puzzle is the lack of a Hydrocarbon Law (HCL) in Iraq to release the budget funds to the provinces as well as a myriad other items that the HCL benefits. In light of where we are in the process we can now release breaking news gathered from sources within the process.  Without going into too much minute details, the delay in the full blown release of the next round of reforms was, among other things due to the instability in the political arena in the Kurdistan region. We have information that much of that has now reached a sufficient point of closure that the next round of reforms, including the HCL is now in imminent status with the signing of some documents and release by the PTB.  We are now in a countdown to the full blown economic reform introducing the Iraqi dinar to the international community.

BGG: Wow –

BGG: [the report] – emphasizes that what happened before the fall of Mosul was planned by al-Maliki in order to return to power and picking the third mandate until the door drop Sunni leaders in the western regions and the declaration of emergency law that allows him to control and put the Kurdistan region with a fait accompli,

BGG: which I said over and over – no one cared much (at the time) to listen…

BGG: WOW – as I read this whole report, it strikes me, the reason Maliki is coming back (or has – or will Thursday)… reference is made to the fact, if he stays gone his political influence ends QUICKLY.

tman23 – Actually what we are seeing is not at all surprising… June was the end of the road…and we are witnessing the change of dynamics in warp speed…There is a time limit and it is Oct 1st… But there are a host of world events tied into this timeline …which are quite coincidental if you believe in such! …there are so many documents that were set with this date from different resources.

BGG – Article quote:   “…the mini-financial committee set up by Parliament to follow up on money laundering in the central bank file or transfer large sums of money out of the country accuse Maliki of being behind it.  Stunning news…Maliki was involved in the largest money laundering operation in Iraq…they actually pinned the Money Laundering / Embezzlement directly from the CBI ON HIM!!

Kaperoni – Article:  “Jubouri: The second package of reforms will contain a lot of detailed important decisions”   We can see now that these various committees are being formed to present to the PM reforms. And the second package appears to begin to including banking reforms..specifically mentioned here “guarantee deposits.” This brings me to the committee that met yesterday discussing the currency… We could be seeing the beginning of many steps to improve the economy, strengthen the banking system and improve the value of the currency. It will be interesting to watch these packages of reforms over the next several weeks and how they are implemented.

tman23 – BAGHDAD — The head of the committee investigating the fall of Mosul, Hakim al-Zamili has revealed that there is no evidence to suggest KRG President Massoud Barzani or former Iraqi Parliament Speaker Osama al-Nujaifi are accountable the fall of Mosul. It had been rumoured that Barzani and al-Nujaifi were included on the list, but al-Zamili rejected the claims. President Barzani insists that he warned former PM Nouri al-Maliki about the serious threats facing northern Iraq before IS launched their 2014 attacks, but was ignored.…….. Now we wait for the reports that will expose Maliki funneling Iraqi money to Tehran…….And that I assume will go over very well with Iraqi citizens and their fondness for Tehran

wmawhite – Well, well ,well…now the U.S. News and World Report is reporting the same thing:..“US News & World Report – Iraqi selling intl bonds and redominating currency…Reacting to the crisis, Iraq plans to issues bonds worth $7 billion — $5 billion in international bonds… Iraq also revived a long-delayed plan to redenominate the Iraqi dinar by knocking three zeroes off the nominal value of its banknotes, said Ihsan Shamran al-Yassiri, the head of Iraq Central Bank Issuing and Vaults Department”  the significance is that the IQD will be on the bond market. The bond market is twice the size of all of the world’s stock markets combined.   when the IQD is on the bond market the individual bonds are able to move freely.  This is the first step of the IQD reentering the world currency markets. Exciting and nice news. [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]
______________________________________________________________

tman23 – The new currency must come first as a prelude to the deletion of the 3 zeros from the currency… This is the biggest statement ever made yet so often overlooked! If they are speaking of new lower denoms, then they would need a rate other then 1166…and if they come first, then the 3 zero notes will carry high value before removing the 3 zeros at the exchange window…what is the time limit…72 hrs…7 days…who knows…but it is possible! The other scenario is seeing a 50,000 note come in October…if that hits the streets then it is not looking good no matter how anyone tries to spin it… Make no mistake…the world is on the edge of financial disasters… it is real and live! There are 33 consulates now opened in Erbil… All these countries are lining up at the feeding trough…IMO it is bigger then Iraq…something BIG is being prepared… and TIME IS A FACTOR!

Frank26 – The Monetary Reform remains in front of us.  It is our opinion that Dr. S [Shabibi] will be returning but we just don’t know when.  Again, IOO (In Our Opinion) the reforms will need an RI to start them.  From the article earlier today, “Let it Float”….this will put things in the hands of the international world and with this will come a faster rise in the rate…IOO.  With the actions being taken by PM Abadi in the form of his reforms expect to see the removal of many things, people, policies, laws, etc. he will make sure that nothing stands in the way of his reforms as we move forward.

Iraq: Report on fall of Mosul to ISIS calls for ex-PM Maliki to face trial

Others implicated include former acting defense minister and Mosul’s governor



Baghdad, Reuters—
Iraq’s parliament on Monday referred to the judiciary a report calling for the trial of former prime minister Nuri Al-Maliki and dozens of other top officials in connection with the fall of Mosul to the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) last year, two lawmakers said…

Breitling – They [the CBI] are telling business and local banks to stop doing business with Iran…the main reason why is they [Iran] are trying to pump US dollars into iraq because they know they [Iraq] are trying to add value to the dinar and they [Iran] know one of the tools to keep the value of the dinar down was the US dollar…it’s a back door confirmation of what the intent is of what Iraq wants to do.   They are cutting Iran off at the knees.  It’s one thing if the CBI can scoop up those dollars and put them into the reserves…that’s a good thing but there is so much that they’re having a problem with it.  And it will keep the value of the dinar down if they don’t tackle it.

It’s going to become a democratic country – Insurgents don’t like that hipocrasy as long as they work with the new government. Our boots on the ground is to protect a new justice that’s about to come to bear.  JUSTICE….and the reinstatement of many reforms.  [post 2 of 3….stay tuned]

Round Table Chat w/BGG 8-17-15

Thanks to DinarRecaps.com for posting Round Table with BGG 

BGG: Jubouri: We have no right to delete any name from Mosul report

BGG: The head of the parliament Saleem al-Jubouri, on Monday, the House of Representatives does not have the right to delete any name mentioned in the report of the fall of Mosul, while pointing out that the report was written neutrally and did not exclude a paragraph or a name and did not succumb to pressure…

BGG: This piece was all about the mention of Maliki as the key figure in the report.

BGG: he and his people wanted his name off it and those currently in charge wouldn’t take his name off…

BGG: Very cool piece.

Robl: Do we know where Maliki is at the present? Iran, Iraq?

BGG: I am suspicious – he may be in Iran.

Of course not.  Six months ago, Abadi asked Dr. Shabibi to come back – but he said not under these conditions. Once I know the banks are secure and Aleck gone and get rid of Maliki’s son too…Dr. Shabibi said if you BUILD THIS FOR ME, I’ll be back…and I see that you’ve built what I want.  …SOCIAL MEDIA, YOUTUBE…you can find “keywords” there…when you see “KEYWORD” substitute DR.

wmawhite – The discussion about what type of notes are used on the streets is totally different from a discussion about the yet to be announced international exchange rate. There will be one international exchange rate for the IQD which is only applicable outside the country. That will in turn determine the type and size of the note to be used in country.  Folks, what you can take away from this discussion and that article is that the citizens are being told to expect changes in the currency they will use on the streets and why?  Because, the IQD will be put on the world currency market and the new value of the IQD will affect the type of note they will use inside Iraq. Plain and simple. [If the IQD does float, will there be value added & then it floats or will it float from 1166? If it floats from 1166 will there be demand for the IQD at that level?]  The CBI will never tell what they will do until after it is implemented. We will know the same time the rest of the world currency markets know.   [post 2 of 2]

So that article was telling the citizens that they should expect to have additional purchasing power equal to $75.00 where it used to be only $25.00…additionally, they are being reminded that the large notes will gradually go away…but they will have 3 times the purchasing power.  the CBI has over and over emphaized that the three zeros notes will continue to be legal tender…but has to [as the?] prices in the economy are reduced the need for the large notes go away and are replaced with LDs.  [post 1 of 2….stay tuned]

Aggiedad77 – Article: “Economist: deletion of zeros from the currency will reduce the dollar traded in the local market”  It would appear that we have a case of apples and oranges here…they don’t mix too well when put into a case…it was either designed for apples or for oranges, but as a mix, the lid just won’t close properly.  We even see the use of Dr. S [Shabibi] name here…saying he was ready four years ago but the project was delayed as they awaited the correct conditions…then we witnessed the ouster of Dr. S from his position as Governor of the CBI and we believe opportunities have been squandered ever since.  Well the time grows ripe again…will we see the return of Dr. S with the ouster today of keywords from his position as “acting” governor of the CBI…a job that apparently he hasn’t done too well in the eyes of PM Abadi.  Remember who appointed him…the removal of the 000’s was Dr. S’s baby…his project…but not in this manner or fashion…only the truth in action here will set any of us free…and as part of that truth keep in mind this is one person’s opinion…and he is not a part of the process that will bring Dr. S’s project to fruition.

firefly – This is a VERY complicated process. Watch for events not dates.  […what events should we be watching for now?]   I’m looking for the IMPLEMENTATION of certain laws…Necessary for the reform to succeed without flaw.  [Mosal and Anbar, International Law, Tarriffs, Amnesty, Implementation…]  and a few more!  The anti money laundering law is crucial…Investment Law!  Tariffs will probably be after the fact IMO.   …the meeting last Saturday went extremely well!  Everything started moving at lightning speed on Sunday correct?  I’m focused on Abadi and the CBI…period… end of story.  [how much time you think…? I will not do dates or windows…but SOON has an entirely new meaning now IMO.

Millionday – THEY ARE TELLING THE CITIZENS THAT HUGE CHANGES ARE COMING FROM THE REFORMS FOR THEM.   …ABADI SAID THERE WAS ANOTHER SET OF REFORMS COMING HOPEFULLY SATURDAY IF I REMEMBER CORRECTLY.   …WE KNOW THAT THE CITIZENS HAVE BEEN DEMONSTRATING FOR A LONG TIME DEMANDING THE REFORMS.  [is it Sat as today Aug 15th? or Sat as Aug 22nd?]  I BELIEVE THIS SATURDAY — I DONT SEE ITS ANNOUNCEMENT HOWEVER.
______________________________________________________________

tlm724 – …the second package of reforms that Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi wants to implement, will be launched very soon, where he is currently being prepared for this package, and that will not be the last…more reforms coming!  …with the full backing of the supreme religious leaders and the judiciary he will get this done!
______________________________________________________________

Frank26 – ...Told You already that IMO DRS [Dr. Shabibi] will soon return …Come back to the CBI.  IMO…”Wait for it.”  He will make the loudest explosion soon enough. He is not in Iraq at the moment.

tlm724 – Article quote:  “Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi has sent two letters to the Integrity Commission to have this commission immediately begin investigating on a number of corruption files”   I have been waiting for this!  Quote:  “According to these sources Haider al-Abadi has emphasized on opening the corruption files of Ahmad Maliki, the son of Maliki. Orders for the arrest of former Iraqi Central Bank director Sanan al-Shabibi has also been ordered…”  that doesn’t mean it’s so but we need to watch for any further developments!  all institutions are under the spot light and lets not forget that Maliki appointed Ali Alak as CBI governor after Turki.

Millionday – Article quotes: “Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi has sent two letters to the Integrity Commission to have this commission immediately begin investigating on a number of corruption files regarding Nouri Maliki and Baha al-Araji.”  “Orders for the arrest of former Iraqi Central Bank director Sanan al-Shabibi has also been ordered, according to al-Baghdadiya.”  SO OBVIOUSLY WE WILL HAVE TO SEE WHERE THIS GOES — SO I WILL SAY THE ONLY WAY THIS CAN BE VERIFIED IS THROUGH ACTION.  [Did I read that correctly!? “Orders for the arrest of former Iraqi Central Bank director Sanan al-Shabibi has also been ordered…”   I thought Abadi helped Dr. S to get out of charges late last year?]   THE HEAD OF CBI IS APPOINTED BUT WE HAVE SEEN THIS BEFORE — WE WILL HAVE TO SEE WHERE IT GOES WITH SHABIBI — I CANNOT VERIFY THIS.

After his dismissal State law turned on Al-Maliki. It acknowledges responsibility for financial budgets and loss!!

Mp State law Nicole, the previous Government led by former Prime Minister and Vice-President of the Republic article Nouri al-Maliki responsible for strained state budget, at the same time revealing the presence of 300 in the State Constitution, have been distributed.

Al-kinani said in a statement: “the decisions of the Government and parliamentary reform has two dimensions, economic dimension because it represents a step towards addressing the SAG of the administrative and financial functioning of the State institutions including the Government itself, as well as another political dimension of such decisions will pave to cancel quota confessional that has made the country a standstill.”

“Prime Minister Haidar Al-Abbadi decisions timely and represent a genuine response to the will of the masses and in line with the directives of the good religious reference”…

BGG – [How long do you think it will take to remove Alak?]  that is the last piece of the puzzle – if you are asking me – doesn’t sound like long…there was also a SCATHING PIECE about Alak being a child and not at all qualified to be the Gov of the CBI.  Quite honestly – the happenings in Iraq are breathtaking…there is a lot going on all at once.  [The next week will be interesting to see how CBI plays out.]  the next week should be very interesting indeed.

Millionday – [Do you have any idea when they will implement the border tariffs and the International Bonds?] THEY HAVE STATED THIS MONTH BUT THE BEST WAY TO BE SURE IS TO WATCH IT HAPPEN IMO.
______________________________________________________________

firefly – IMO Abadi and Shabibi are in the same boat. Each is paddling in unison towards one goal.  Remember…it was Abadi that forced the courts to remove all previous charges brought on Shabibi from Maliki.  Shabibi has NEVER been OFFICIALLY replaced…just a bunch of proxy (fillers) for the position.  …according to the old constitution…the CBI Governor had to be voted in by Parliament.  Maliki to my understanding never had the power to appoint a permanent Governor.

Millionday – [So what part is yet to be done before they are ready to do the RV. I mean where do we fit in the scheme of things? ONE OF THE REPORTS WE HAD ANNOUNCED THAT WITH THE REFORM LAW BEING PASSED THE IMPORTANT LAWS WERE PASSED TOO — SO AT THIS POINT MANY THINGS ARE NOT BEING RELEASED — WE DONT HAVE A DATE OR RATE AND HAVE NOT HAD ONE OR A GUARANTEE BUT — SO MANY THINGS HAVE MOVED FORWARD FROM WHERE WE WERE — HUGE PROGRESS.
______________________________________________________________

Mnt Goat – I believe Abadi has a new target – that of the Judiciary and Court System of Iraq.  Abadi must deal with the judiciary now in order to get some of these other laws passed and properly deal with much of the corruption.  So how do you judiciously deal with corruption in your ministries if the court system itself is corrupt?   …Iraq had to be sorted out by Abadi and priorities placed, a plan was designed. He is taking on one bite at a time and being cautious. He now has support (and continues) to have support of the citizens in this work that lays ahead. We know without a shadow of a doubt that there will be no RV without Amnesty and other laws. This is given facts to us. So to get these needed laws implemented Abadi must clean up the crocked judiciary system (as well as his ministers).  Abadi has gotten momentum from the protestors and so it is time now to move forward on these judicial reforms and we should all be jumping up and down with joy. We have waited soooo long for this to happen.

The Exchange Rate of Foreign Currency in Economic Feasibility Studies 

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.

Estimate the shadow price of foreign currency:…

3.      Estimate the amended exchange rate of the Iraqi dinar to be used in technical and economical feasibility studies and for (1.134) dollar per dinar. This price should be approved for 3 years until re-appreciation by the competent authorities.
