IRAN MOVES TO REGULATE CRYPTO INSTEAD OF IMPOSING LIMITS: REPORT

Iran’s finance minister said the country’s government plans to regulate cryptocurrencies instead of limiting their usage.

The Iranian government is looking to embrace crypto assets by adding more regulations instead of outright restrictions, its Minister of Economic Affairs and Finance Abdolnaser Hemmati said.

According to a report from Iran’s state-run news agency Nour News, Hemmati said during a national event on Saturday that the government aims to eliminate the negative impacts of cryptocurrency on the economy, and leverage its positive effects. The minister added that digital money falls under the jurisdiction of the Iranian central bank.

Hemmati said he hopes to see cryptocurrencies used to boost youth employment in Iran, help counter U.S. sanctions and align the country’s activities with the global economy.

On the same day as Hemmati’s speechthe Central Bank of Iran published a new document that summarized its arrangement for upcoming policies on cryptocurrenciesNour News reported. The upcoming policies aim to support crypto traders to comply with local tax and anti-money laundering laws, according to the report.

Iranian investors currently hold an estimated $30 billion to $50 billion worth of crypto assets, the report said, citing economist Mohammad Sadegh Alhosseini. This is roughly equivalent to a third of the entire gold market in the country, according to the expert.

The announcement from the Iranian government comes as U.S. President-elect Donald Trump builds anticipation for a positive regulatory environment for cryptocurrencies.

Since his reelection last month, Trump has appointed several pro-crypto candidates to spearhead various efforts during his upcoming term, recently naming long-time crypto supporter Paul Atkins to head the Securities and Exchange Commission.

CZECH REPUBLIC IS NOW CRYPTO-FRIENDLY! HERE’S WHAT CHANGED

The Czech Republic has introduced new crypto-friendly laws, making it easier for crypto businesses to operate in the country.

These laws include easier access to bank accounts for crypto businesses and a three-year tax exemption on crypto investments.

These reforms aim to attract more crypto businesses to the Czech Republic and prevent them from moving to other countries.

The Czech Republic has made the news headlines with bold new crypto regulations aimed at transforming the sector. These changes address long-standing challenges for crypto businesses and could make the country a hotspot for digital asset innovation.

Crypto Firms Finally Get a Break


Crypto businesses in the Czech Republic have long struggled to open bank accounts due to skepticism from financial institutions. Banks, wary of crypto’s volatility, often denied these businesses basic banking services, making operations incredibly challenging.

That’s about to change. The new reforms will make it easier for crypto companies to access banking services, removing a major barrier to growth. This shift could pave the way for smoother operations and attract more businesses to the Czech market.

A Tax Break to Boost Investments

But wait, there’s more. A three-year tax exemption for crypto investments has also been introduced. This means that profits from crypto will be treated just like profits from stocks. So, crypto businesses can breathe a little easier, knowing they’re now on the same playing field as more traditional investments. It’s a big win, and it’s meant to make the Czech market way more attractive to investors—both local and international.

Why Act Now? The Clock’s Ticking

Deputy Speaker Jan Skopeček explained the need for swift action, emphasizing that the government had to act now to retain crypto businesses. Without these changes, many companies could relocate to countries with more favorable crypto laws, leading to economic losses.

The urgency also ties to the European Union’s upcoming Markets in Crypto Assets (MiCA) regulation. While MiCA aims to harmonize crypto rules across the EU, its rollout has caused uncertainty. Many companies are still awaiting approvals or navigating compliance challenges, and some have already left Europe or modified their operations to align with the evolving rules.

The Road Ahead Is Not Easy

These reforms show the Czech Republic’s determination to stay ahead in the digital revolution. By easing banking access and offering tax incentives, the country is positioning itself as a more attractive hub for crypto firms.

However, challenges remain.  While the reforms are promising, businesses may still encounter unexpected hurdles as the new policies are implemented. The coming months will reveal whether the Czech Republic can truly establish itself as a crypto-friendly destination.

Are European Central Banks Secretly Moving Toward a Gold Standard?

Are European Central Banks Secretly Moving Toward a Gold Standard?

APMEX:  12-8-2024

Gold has been an integral part of Europe’s financial landscape for centuries, underpinning economies and serving as a symbol of wealth and stability. From the era of the gold standard to contemporary monetary policies, gold has consistently captured the interest of economists and investors alike.

Recently, a noteworthy trend has emerged, prompting renewed speculation about gold’s role in the region’s financial future: European central banks appear to be targeting gold reserves equal to 4% of their GDP. This article explores the implications of this shift, the motivations behind it, and its potential impact on investors and the global economy.

Are European Central Banks Secretly Moving Toward a Gold Standard?

APMEX:  12-8-2024

Gold has been an integral part of Europe’s financial landscape for centuries, underpinning economies and serving as a symbol of wealth and stability. From the era of the gold standard to contemporary monetary policies, gold has consistently captured the interest of economists and investors alike.

Recently, a noteworthy trend has emerged, prompting renewed speculation about gold’s role in the region’s financial future: European central banks appear to be targeting gold reserves equal to 4% of their GDP. This article explores the implications of this shift, the motivations behind it, and its potential impact on investors and the global economy.

Historically, gold has been the bedrock of monetary systems, particularly during the gold standard era, where currencies were directly tied to gold reserves.

While the abandonment of the gold standard allowed for more flexible monetary policies, the importance of gold as a safe-haven asset has never diminished. In recent years, central banks, particularly in Europe, have begun to reconsider their gold holdings as part of their broader monetary strategy.

The focus on achieving gold reserves equivalent to 4% of GDP is not merely a coincidence; it is rooted in various geopolitical and economic factors. Some analysts speculate that European nations might be preparing for a strategic pivot back to a gold-backed currency.

This theory gained traction following statements from financial leaders, including Poland’s former Minister of Finance, who suggested that increasing gold reserves could bolster economic sovereignty amid an increasingly unpredictable global economy.

Countries like France, Italy, and the Netherlands have shown a marked increase in their gold reserves and have reportedly started to view gold as a strategic asset for future financial stability. The reasoning is clear: in a world fraught with economic volatility and inflationary pressures, gold offers a hedge against currency devaluation and inflation, acting as a safeguard for national wealth.

The recent spikes in inflation rates across Europe, exacerbated by supply chain disruptions and geopolitical tensions, have led many central banks to re-evaluate their asset allocations. In an environment where fiat currencies face the threat of devaluation, gold emerges as a reliable store of value. Unlike fiat currencies, which can be printed at will, gold’s limited supply makes it an attractive hedge against inflation.

The push to maintain gold reserves at around 4% of GDP could be seen as a proactive step to ensure that European economies remain resilient against potential economic shocks. By diversifying their reserves and increasing exposure to gold, central banks aim to foster greater financial security and stability.

The shift towards increasing gold reserves by European central banks signals a potential strategic pivot in financial policy—either as a preparation for a hypothetical return to a gold-backed currency or as a prudent hedge against inflation.

Whichever the case may be, this trend demands attention from both policymakers and investors. As Europe navigates an increasingly complex economic landscape, gold once again finds itself at the forefront of financial strategy, reminding us of its enduring legacy as a symbol of stability and security in an ever-changing world.

Investors would do well to watch these developments closely, as they could shape investment strategies and economic policies for years to come.

RIPPLE CEO ON 60 MINUTES: GARLINGHOUSE OPENS UP ON $150 MILLION SEC FIGHT, CRYPTO WAR AND MORE

Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse appeared in an interview on 60 Minutes, airing on December 8, 2024, where he discussed the company’s ongoing legal fight with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

Garlinghouse criticized the SEC’s approach, stating that it was a key reason why Ripple and two other companies formed the industry super PAC, FairShake, to fight back against what he described as a “war on crypto.” He suggested that FairShake might not have existed if the SEC had a different chairman than Gary Gensler.

RIPPLE CEO ON 60 MINUTES: GARLINGHOUSE OPENS UP ON $150 MILLION SEC FIGHT, CRYPTO WAR AND MORE

Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse appeared in an interview on 60 Minutes, airing on December 8, 2024, where he discussed the company’s ongoing legal fight with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

Garlinghouse criticized the SEC’s approach, stating that it was a key reason why Ripple and two other companies formed the industry super PAC, FairShake, to fight back against what he described as a “war on crypto.” He suggested that FairShake might not have existed if the SEC had a different chairman than Gary Gensler.

When an SEC spokesperson said that the amount spent by the crypto industry on legal defense is minimal compared to the losses investors have faced due to frauds and market failures, Garlinghouse revealed Ripple’s financial contributions, revealing that the company has spent over $150 million fighting the SEC’s stance on XRP.

He said that Ripple argues XRP should not be treated like a stock and be subject to the same registration and disclosure requirements. Garlinghouse stressed that Ripple is not seeking to be deregulated but instead asking for clear regulations from Congress to address the unique nature of digital assets.

“I went to Harvard Business School. I think I’m reasonably intelligent about something like, “What is a security?” So never once had I considered the possibility– that, “Okay, maybe XRP’s a security. We haven’t been asking to be deregulated. We’ve been asking to be regulated. So we have been saying, “Hey, look, just give us clear rules of the road,” he said.

XRP Price Reacts:

XRP, Ripple’s cryptocurrency, is currently experiencing a surge, approaching the $2.60 mark. At the time of writing, it was trading at $2.55, a 4.5% increase. Investors are optimistic about the future of the crypto industry, especially under a potential Trump presidency, as Ripple’s blockchain-based payment system continues to gain attention.

Previously, XRP’s price saw a boost following speculation about a possible meeting between Garlinghouse and President-elect Trump, as well as news about SEC Chairman Gary Gensler’s resignation.

HONG KONG TO INTRODUCE STABLECOIN FRAMEWORK

Hong Kong is establishing a bill that outlines a detailed framework for stablecoin issuers and marketers.

Under the proposed framework, stablecoin issuers and marketers must secure licenses from the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA)

The rule applies to all stablecoins, including those pegged to the Hong Kong dollar, while issuers are required to maintain reserve assets in local banks. Foreign custody might also be allowed by HKMA under specific conditions.

New compliance measures will be implemented, such as a minimum paid-up capital requirement of HK$25 million, as well as proof of robust financial health, sufficient liquidity, and risk management frameworks. Misrepresentation or false promotion of stablecoins is explicitly prohibited.

HKMA has also further expanded its authority to oversee, investigate, and enforce compliance.

The Stablecoins Bill will be introduced into the Legislative Council for a first reading on December 18.

“The legislative proposal is essential for Hong Kong in fulfilling our obligations as a member of the Financial Stability Board,” Christopher Hui Ching-yu, Secretary for Financial Services and the Treasury, said in a statement.

“This risk-based proposal aims to promote a robust regulatory environment, which is in line with Hong Kong’s approach to virtual-asset development.”

Hong Kong's bill positions it as an early mover alongside the EU and JapanIn JulyCircle, the issuer of the USD Coin (USDC) and Euro Coin (EURC) stablecoins became the first global stablecoin issuer to achieve compliance with the European Union's Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulatory framework.

In Junethe Japanese parliament enacted a law recognizing stablecoins as a form of digital currency. According to the legislation, stablecoins must be tied to the yen and ensure holders can redeem each token at its full face value.

Hong Kong has made significant strides in an attempt to establish itself as a crypto-friendly regional hub. Just last month, Hong Kong proposed waiving crypto tax for wealthy individuals in an attempt to strengthen its position as a leading regional crypto hub.

In a 20-page proposal, the Hong Kong government said the tax exemption would apply to private equity funds, hedge funds, and the investment vehicles of wealthy individuals on cryptocurrency gains, private credit investments, and other asset classes.

Iraq News Highlights and Points to Ponder Sunday Afternoon 12-8-24

AL-Nusairi Calls On The Media To Be Patriotic, Transparent And Supportive Of The National Economy

Money and business    Economy News – Baghdad Economic and banking advisor Samir Al-Nusairi called for economic media to be national, specialized, accurate, honest and transparent in diagnosing economic problems and imbalances, and to be a real and supportive contributor in proposing solutions and treatments to the supervisory and regulatory government bodies, and not to be a media that is satisfied with directing criticism and accusations without relying on accurate and transparent sources and information.

Al-Nusairi pointed out that the economic analysis of those called analysts or experts should be realistic and committed to reaching accurate information from reliable sources so that the government and its economic institutions can benefit from it for the purposes of diagnosis, treatment and accountability.

AL-Nusairi Calls On The Media To Be Patriotic, Transparent And Supportive Of The National Economy

Money and business    Economy News – Baghdad Economic and banking advisor Samir Al-Nusairi called for economic media to be national, specialized, accurate, honest and transparent in diagnosing economic problems and imbalances, and to be a real and supportive contributor in proposing solutions and treatments to the supervisory and regulatory government bodies, and not to be a media that is satisfied with directing criticism and accusations without relying on accurate and transparent sources and information.

Al-Nusairi pointed out that the economic analysis of those called analysts or experts should be realistic and committed to reaching accurate information from reliable sources so that the government and its economic institutions can benefit from it for the purposes of diagnosis, treatment and accountability.

Al-Nusairi warned against some non-economic media (or non-specialized media) that have recently promoted and analyzed incorrect news that is tainted with lack of credibility and fallacies in transmitting and analyzing the news according to specific visions,

 intentionally or unintentionally, that harm the course of economic, financial and banking reform, disrupt the movement of monetary and commodity trading in the local market, and hinder the efforts of the government and the Central Bank in achieving the goals set to achieve the desired reform steps,

stressing that the non-committed media contributes to adding another problem that affects the nerve of the Iraqi economy in addition to the challenges that the country and the region are currently suffering from, which is creating a state of economic instability and fluctuations in the exchange rate of the US dollar against the Iraqi dinar and the rise in the prices of basic and necessary goods and materials such as food and medicine.

He pointed out that it is necessary here for media workers in all its fields and analysts who roam satellite channels and lack experience and intent to realize that specialized economic media has an important and fundamental role in creating economic stability and goes beyond that to contributing to economic reform and enabling and assisting the concerned state agencies and institutions to control economic problems and spread economic culture and avoid failure cases because economic media must be national economic media in word and meaning.

Al-Nusairi explained that media and economy are in a multi-faceted and permanently related partnership, and they are on the same front to face the challenges they face together, and if we assume that the economy can create successful media, then it is certain that the media can also create a successful economy, and this is what results in the success of the media institution if it has specialized economic leaders who are aware of the role of national media.

Iraq's experience in this field is considered modern, as the economy needs support and assistance in promotion, analysis, planning and support in order to deliver a distinguished media message to the audience, whether through the press, television, radio, or modern media and communication channels.

Al-Nusairi concluded by saying:

“Therefore, the economic media that can deliver a purposeful message and serve the economy and economic institutions is the one that attracts an important segment of society. It will remain and continue and achieve the strategic goals of supporting the national economy and developing the work of productive, financial and banking institutions.

The economic media must undertake positive participation in the process of development and economic reform by presenting an image of the nature of the future trends of the economy and identifying economic and development activities and events and available energies and encouraging and stimulating the economy and investment.”

Where Did The Amendment Of The Budget Items Related To Oil Exports In The Kurdistan Region Stand?

2024-12-08 |Source: Sumerian News – Politics Reported Committee The Oil and Gas Parliamentary Committee, in support of addressing the situation in the Kurdistan Region’s oil fields, demanded that the fields be subject to an international consulting company either affiliated with the Federal Ministry of Oil, or has a relationship with it.

He said Deputy Chairman of the Committee Adnan Al-Jaberi said, "The committee is in favor of addressing the situation in the Kurdistan Region's oil fields, because the country needs the quantities produced there, in addition to arranging the relationship between the region and the federal government."

He explained that the proposed amendment stipulated that compensation for companies operating in the Kurdistan Region would be determined by an international consulting company specializing in evaluating each field and its production costs, so we are in favor of addressing this situation.

Pointing we have no comments other than that the region's fields should be subject to an oil company either affiliated with the federal Ministry of Oil or related to it, in order to organize work in a more professional and transparent manner, and the status of the region's oil will be like the status of oil in other Iraqi governorates.

It is noteworthy that the parliamentary finance committee is close to preparing the final report to amend the budget items related to oil exports in the Kurdistan Region, after answering the questions it posed to officials in the Ministry of Oil.

A statement issued by the media department of the House of Representatives stated that the parliamentary finance committee, headed by Atwan Al-Atwan, and in the presence of its members and a number of members of other parliamentary committees, hosted last week the Undersecretary of the Ministry of Oil for Extraction Affairs, the Director General of the Legal Department, the Director General of the Economic Department, and the Director General of the State Oil Marketing Company (SOMO), to discuss amending the general budget items related to oil exports by the region.

The statement added that Al-Atwani pointed out the importance of the meeting and the need to invest it in the best possible way to confront any potential changes in oil prices, stressing the importance of amending the item related to oil exports in the budget to address contracts related to production costs.

The committee raised a number of questions about the basic standards related to production costs, in addition to the payment of financial allocations, and the extent of commitment to contract terms, while emphasizing the formulation of amendments that achieve justice in the distribution of resources, through data analysis and adapting contracts in line with national requirements.

BRICS: The U.S. Dollar’s Global Influence Is Decreasing

BRICS leader and Russian President Putin explained that after Trump’s presidency, American leaders have done a great deal to undermine the US dollar. The sanctions and weaponization of the USD led to emerging economies ganging up against the White House. “The US dollar’s clout is decreasing globally,” said Putin.

He also said that America’s share in the global economy is shrinking while BRICS is rising“Given that the US share in the global economy is shrinking, the dollar’s influence on global economic processes is also falling. And as this happens, new tools come to the fore,” he said.

“It’s been four years since the [US] President-elect was in the White House. During this time, the economy has undergone many changes, both globally and in America.

His successors, his political opponents, have done a great deal to undermine the fundamental role of the dollar as a global reserve currency,” Putin summed it up. It now needs to be seen how BRICS will counter Trump’s threat of reducing dependency on the US dollar.

US Admits Collapse of the Dollar as BRICS Introduce New Finance

US Admits Collapse of the Dollar as BRICS Introduce New Finance

Geopolitical Analyst:  12-8-2024

In recent years, the landscape of international finance has been undergoing significant transformation, moving away from traditional systems and exploring innovative alternatives. One of the most groundbreaking initiatives emerging from this shift is BRICS Pay, a payment platform that operates on a decentralized star topology, leveraging dispersed networks to communicate payment information and liquidity.

This novel approach not only enhances the speed and efficiency of payments but also fortifies financial resilience against unilateral actions that can disrupt global economic stability.

US Admits Collapse of the Dollar as BRICS Introduce New Finance

Geopolitical Analyst:  12-8-2024

In recent years, the landscape of international finance has been undergoing significant transformation, moving away from traditional systems and exploring innovative alternatives. One of the most groundbreaking initiatives emerging from this shift is BRICS Pay, a payment platform that operates on a decentralized star topology, leveraging dispersed networks to communicate payment information and liquidity.

This novel approach not only enhances the speed and efficiency of payments but also fortifies financial resilience against unilateral actions that can disrupt global economic stability.

BRICS Pay stands out as a promising alternative to SWIFT, seeking to mitigate potential sanctions and currency volatility that have increasingly characterized the global financial arena. By adopting a decentralized framework, BRICS Pay offers rapid deployment and scalability, making it a highly adaptive solution for the member countries of the BRICS alliance—Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa. The increased focus on inclusivity and transparency aims to foster deeper economic collaboration among BRICS nations and their global partners, ultimately enhancing collective economic power in an increasingly multipolar world.

As of the second quarter of 2024, BRICS countries had significantly bolstered their gold reserves, now totaling approximately 6,200 tons, which accounts for 21.4% of the world’s total reserves. This strategic buildup reflects a broader tendency among countries to diversify from the US dollar and safeguard their economies against external shocks and sanctions.

Russia leads the pack with 2,340 tons (8.1% of global reserves), followed closely by China at 2,260 tons (7.8%). Brazil’s gold reserves have increased nearly threefold, showcasing a successful initiative to strengthen financial defenses in the face of growing global uncertainty.

Nations are increasingly turning away from their dependence on the US dollar in international trade and finance—a process known as de-dollarization. This paradigm shift is driven by various factors, including the desire for economic autonomy, stability, and resilience against US economic sanctions. The dominance of the dollar in global transactions often subjects countries to the vagaries of US monetary policy, which can lead to significant economic instability.

By diversifying their reserves, central banks aim to dispel risk linked to US financial systems and foster greater monetary independence.

Key players like China and Russia are taking significant strides to undermine US economic control by enhancing the use of their respective currencies in international commerce. These nations are establishing regional trade agreements that facilitate local currency transactions, thereby reducing reliance on the dollar.

For instance, a recent agreement between China and Brazil allows for trade in their own currencies, simplifying transactions and minimizing conversion costs.

The movement towards a decentralized payment system and the accumulation of gold reserves are emblematic of the BRICS nations’ commitment to creating a more robust and independent financial architecture. This strategic direction aims not only to cushion the economies of member nations from external pressures but also to pave the way for a multipolar global financial system.

As emerging economies gain traction on the world stage, leveraging their own currencies to bolster financial sovereignty represents a significant shift in international trade dynamics. The rise of BRICS Pay, coupled with nations’ efforts to diversify away from the US dollar, demonstrates a collective resolve to reshape global economic relations and challenge the historical dominance of Western financial institutions.

The introduction of BRICS Pay and the strategic increase in gold reserves signal a pivotal moment in the evolution of global finance. By championing decentralized systems and reducing reliance on the dollar, BRICS nations are taking measured steps towards economic independence, stability, and security.

The aim is clear: to strengthen financial autonomy against geopolitical risks while promoting an inclusive framework conducive to collaboration among emerging markets. As the world moves forward, the success of these initiatives will be closely watched as a potential blueprint for future economic cooperation and resilience on the global stage.

For The Second Week In A Row, Oil Prices Record A Decline Amid Abundant Supplies

Energy sw23Economy News - Follow-up Oil prices fell more than 1% on Friday, extending their weekly losses as analysts forecast a supply surplus next year due to weak demand despite OPEC+'s decision to delay production increases and extend deep production cuts until the end of 2026.

Brent crude futures fell 97 cents, or 1.4%, to $71.12 a barrel. U.S. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude futures fell $1.10, or 1.6%, to $67.20 a barrel.

Over the course of the week, Brent lost more than 2.5% and WTI fell 1.2%, with prices continuing to decline for the second week in a row.

Prices also fell as the number of oil and gas rigs operating in the United States rose this week, indicating higher production from the world's largest crude oil producer.

OPEC+ on Thursday postponed the start of increasing oil production by three months until April 2025, and extended the period until all cuts are removed by a year to the end of 2026.

The alliance,-` which pumps about half of the world's crude oil production, had planned to start reducing production cuts since October 2020, but slowing global demand, especially in China, and rising production from outside the group, in addition to other factors, prompted the alliance to postpone those plans more than once.

Brent crude traded in a narrow range of $70 to $75 a barrel last month, amid assessments of signs of weak demand in China and rising geopolitical risks in the Middle East.162 views  12/07/2024 - https://economy-news.net/content.php?id=50612

Rafidain Bank Restructuring Program.. Justifications And Requirements

Dr. Haitham Hamid Mutlaq Al Mansour

After the Prime Minister stressed during his meeting with representatives of Ernst & Young the importance of developing the work of the government banking sector to enhance the confidence of citizens and local and foreign investors in the government banking sector in particular and the economy in general, the restructuring of Rafidain Bank is the first step towards economic reforms in the banking sector towards restructuring Iraqi government banks such as Rashid, Agricultural and Industrial, in an effort to make them play a financial role that stimulates growth and stability.

Rafidain Bank has witnessed accumulated internal problems inherited from the previous regime and subsequent governments after the change, manifested around banking, credit and administrative policies that have undermined the bank’s credit capacity and limited its banking stability and operational and financial efficiency, as Rafidain Bank still suffers from many fundamental problems at the core of banking work, namely:

The balance sheet of Rafidain Bank suffers from debts owed by it as a result of issuing letters of guarantee and confirming credits in favor of government departments and companies, which, along with the accumulated interest, have exceeded their natural limits.

The bank's credit rating has decreased.

Limited ability to keep up with developments in the banking industry.

The decline in the bank’s ability to meet its obligations according to profitability indicators, capital adequacy indicators, the ratio of equity to total assets and the ratio of equity to total deposits, which indicates the weakness of the bank’s activity in meeting its credit obligations.

Rigidity of banking legislation and failure to build policies for developing banking services through advanced banking technologies.

Hence, it is expected that the restructuring will improve its performance in a way that will rehabilitate it to be able to increase its efficiency in managing its balance sheet and improve its ability to achieve profitability indicators, capital adequacy and resource employment indicators.

By redesigning the bank's organizational structure, creating new departments and merging existing ones with new ones, the bank's tools and objectives can be developed with the aim of improving the performance of the bank's structure in the infrastructure of organization and supervision, solvency and liquidity rules, its lending policy and formulating its relations with other banks on the one hand and government units and others on the other hand.

Therefore, it is possible, on a theoretical level, after the restructuring process, that the bank’s performance will improve and its productivity will increase in the short and long term, and its financial and operational efficiency will be raised, as the cost of banking operations will be reduced and the process of participation in decision-making will move towards what is consistent with banking decentralization. It is expected that the new structure will aim to avoid credit bankruptcy by limiting the accumulation of ineffective balances and avoiding a credit crisis.

But in reality, we see that the restructuring process faces several challenges, the most important of which are the difficulty of attracting and attracting the required sufficient capital, low savings rates, weak capital market, high cost of modern technology and developing related systems, and high cost of training employees in the banking sector.

Therefore, the restructuring program should aim to secure two strategic requirements:

The first requirement: It revolves around the goal of restructuring the operating side with the aim of achieving its financial stability. The goal of restructuring the financial side in a way that restores the bank’s ability to comply with the minimum capital adequacy and other hedging requirements.

The second requirement: It includes two objectives. The first is concerned with restructuring the bank according to an accurate and clear plan for the short, medium and long term in the institutional and operational aspects, in a way that ensures the bank’s harmony with market conditions and customer service and in accordance with the hedging requirements contained in the Banking Law and the Central Bank of Iraq Law, and the requirements of compliance and competition.

As for the second, it is concerned with amending the laws, regulations and instructions that regulate the work of Iraqi banks in a way that qualifies them to work in light of modern banking standards and indicators to keep pace with market requirements and enhance the prospects and requirements of growth and stability in a way that serves the banking reform process  12/07/2024 - https://economy-news.net/content.php?id=50614

Good Morning Dinar Recaps, 

COINBASE REVEALS LETTERS WHICH EXPOSES FDIC’S ROLE IN OPERATION CHOKEPOINT 2.0

Coinbase reveals FDIC "pause letters", showing efforts to restrict crypto banking services. Documents support Operation Chokepoint 2.0 claims.

▪️Coinbase obtained FDIC "pause letters" revealing efforts to limit banking access for crypto firms in 2022 through FOIA requests.

Good Morning Dinar Recaps, 

COINBASE REVEALS LETTERS WHICH EXPOSES FDIC’S ROLE IN OPERATION CHOKEPOINT 2.0

Coinbase reveals FDIC "pause letters", showing efforts to restrict crypto banking services. Documents support Operation Chokepoint 2.0 claims.

▪️Coinbase obtained FDIC "pause letters" revealing efforts to limit banking access for crypto firms in 2022 through FOIA requests.

▪️FDIC's communications showed deliberate delays and questions aimed at halting crypto-related banking activities, fueling "Operation Chokepoint 2.0."

▪️Crypto industry leaders argue government actions restrict legal crypto businesses' access to banking services.

Coinbase, one of the largest crypto exchanges in the U.S., has made public a series of documents that point to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation’s (FDIC) involvement in restricting banking access for crypto companies. 

The lettersobtained through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requestsuggest that in 2022the FDIC instructed banks to halt or limit services to crypto businesses.

The exchange’s legal team asserts that these documents provide evidence of a concerted effort by federal agencies to suppress the crypto industry.

Coinbase Exposes FDIC’s ‘Pause Letters’, Proving Role in Crypto Banking Restrictions
Coinbase recently revealed a set of “pause letters” sent by the FDIC to financial institutions in 2022. These letters requested that banks temporarily halt crypto-related activities until further review of compliance and risk factors.

The documents, uncovered through legal action by the exchange, shed light on the FDIC’s efforts to limit the banking services available to crypto businesses.

The “pause letters” explicitly instructed banks to pause any crypto asset-related activities. This signals a proactive stance by regulators to discourage financial institutions from engaging with cryptocurrency industry.

Paul Grewal, Coinbase CLO commented,

“The letters that show Operation Chokepoint 2.0 wasn’t just some crypto conspiracy theory. FDIC is still hiding behind way overbroad redactions. And they still haven’t  produced more than a fraction of them.”

Last monthCoinbase CLO Paul Grewal revealed that the FDIC has been actively working to restrict banks from offering crypto services.


Operation Chokepoint 2.0 Allegations and Its Impact on Crypto Firms

The documents made public by Coinbase have rekindled the debate around “Operation Chokepoint 2.0,” a term coined by critics to describe alleged government efforts to stifle the crypto industry. According to the exchange legal team, these letters provide concrete evidence of a coordinated strategy by the FDIC to limit crypto firms.

Crypto executives have long complained about the difficulties of securing banking relationships due to regulatory uncertaintyThe letters confirm that federal agencies have been using informal measures to suppress the industry.

However, in recent reportsUS Rep. French Hill has vowed to investigate Operation Chokepoint 2.0which he argues targets industries like crypto through politicized debanking. He has called for transparency in financial oversight and stronger protections for businesses facing unfair regulatory practices.

According to reports, Banks were asked to submit detailed analyses, including risk assessments and income projections, before moving forward with offering crypto services. This level of scrutiny and the subsequent delays were a tactic to stop financial institutions from entering relationships with the crypto sector.

Coinbase has vowed to continue pursuing transparency, despite heavy redactions in the documents released by the FDIC. As Coinbase legal chief Paul Grewal stated, further disclosure will provide additional clarity on the extent of the regulatory actions taken against the industry.

Similarly, John Deaton recently called for the incoming US government to hold accountable those responsible for debanking crypto firms.

BRICS NEWS:  SOUTH AFRICA SAYS BRICS HAS NO PLANS TO CREATE NEW CURRENCY AFTER TRUMP ISSUES WARNING AGAINST DEDOLLARIZATION: REPORT

Reports on a new BRICS currency designed to compete against the US dollar are fundamentally false, according to leaders in South Africa.

In a statement, South Africa’s Department of International Relations and Cooperation (DIRCO) says BRICS is not working on a currency that could be used as an alternative to USD, reports Bloomberg.

According to DIRCO, reports have misinterpreted the intentions of the economic bloc about trade settlements between member nations.

“Recent misreporting has led to the incorrect narrative that BRICS is planning to create a new currency. This is not the case. The discussions within BRICS focus on trading among member countries using their own national currencies.”

In May of last year, reports emerged that BRICS was working on a new currency backed by gold and potentially additional precious metals and assets in a push to abandon the US dollar.

Despite those reports, South Africa is now saying that BRICS has no intention of promoting de-dollarization efforts.

“South Africa supports the increased use of national currencies in international trade and financial transactions to mitigate the impact of foreign exchange fluctuations, rather than focusing on dedollarization. The strengthening of correspondent banking networks and the development of infrastructure for settlements in national currencies could further this aim.”

South Africa’s statements come as President-elect Donald Trump issued an ultimatum against BRICSTrump says on the social media platform Truth Social that he plans to take severe measures if BRICS creates or backs a dollar alternative.

“The idea that the BRICS Countries are trying to move away from the dollar while we stand by and watch is OVER. We require a commitment from these countries that they will neither create a new BRICS currency, nor back any other currency to replace the mighty US dollar or, they will face 100% tariffs, and should expect to say goodbye to selling into the wonderful US economy.

They can go find another ‘sucker!’ There is no chance that the BRICS will replace the US dollar in international trade, and any country that tries should wave goodbye to America.”


As a whole, BRICS nations have expressed varying levels of support for a common currency, with leaders in Russia and Brazil firmly behind the idea. South Africa is the most conservative, expressing the need for a cautious approach while emphasizing the importance of the US dollar.

The meeting also discussed the situation in Gaza and Lebanon, efforts to stop the war and put it into practical implementation, as well as the recent developments in Syria and the importance of containing this crisis and affirming the preservation of Syria's security and stability, according to the statement. link

*************

Tishwash:  Former Minister Rules Out Trump Imposing Sanctions on Iraqi Oil Production and Marketing

Former Minister of Electricity, Luay Al-Khatib, ruled out US President-elect Trump imposing sanctions on Iraqi oil production and marketing.

Al-Khatib stated in a post on the “X” platform, which was followed by “Jarida”, that “Trump is a man of deals and will use his tools to redraw international relations in a manner consistent with his administration by controlling the movement of the dollar and imposing sanctions and central bank dealings on some institutions, individuals and even regimes that are unfriendly or difficult to deal with with the United States.

He may be stubborn or strict on the issue of granting exceptions to Iraq’s import of Iranian gas and electricity exclusively to restrict the dollar’s ​​access to Tehran, but he will not pressure Iraq, as the second oil producer in OPEC, to limit its production to support global markets in order to push for price instability and rises, especially in light of the sanctions in force on major producers such as Iran, Russia and others.”

He expected, “Perhaps the Trump administration will support American energy companies in the fields of oil, gas, electricity and renewable energy to invest in producing countries, including Iraq, to ​​create an alternative and restore trade balance with an active presence, but with work controls that do not contradict financial dealings between Iraq and the United States and the two countries’ partners in the region.”

He stressed that "Iraq must move wisely and quickly to deal with the Trump administration and work on a proactive plan to win over the elected administration before it takes power so that the country can avoid costly moody scenarios that we faced during our ministerial period with great difficulty and succeeded at that time in containing them to pass exceptions on the gas and electricity files." link

Tishwash:  Al-Nusairi calls on the media to be patriotic, transparent and supportive of the national economy

Economic and banking advisor Samir Al-Nusairi called for economic media to be national, specialized, accurate, honest and transparent in diagnosing economic problems and imbalances, and to be a real and supportive contributor in proposing solutions and treatments to the supervisory and regulatory government bodies, and not to be a media that is satisfied with directing criticism and accusations without relying on accurate and transparent sources and information.

Al-Nusairi pointed out that the economic analysis of those called analysts or experts should be realistic and committed to reaching accurate information from reliable sources so that the government and its economic institutions can benefit from it for the purposes of diagnosis, treatment and accountability.

Al-Nusairi warned against some non-economic media (or non-specialized media) that have recently promoted and analyzed incorrect news that is tainted with lack of credibility and fallacies in transmitting and analyzing the news according to specific visions, intentionally or unintentionally, that harm the course of economic, financial and banking reform, disrupt the movement of monetary and commodity trading in the local market, and hinder the efforts of the government and the Central Bank in achieving the goals set to achieve the desired reform steps

Stressing that the non-committed media contributes to adding another problem that affects the nerve of the Iraqi economy in addition to the challenges that the country and the region are currently suffering from, which is creating a state of economic instability and fluctuations in the exchange rate of the US dollar against the Iraqi dinar and the rise in the prices of basic and necessary goods and materials such as food and medicine.

He pointed out that it is necessary here for media workers in all its fields and analysts who roam satellite channels and lack experience and intent to realize that specialized economic media has an important and fundamental role in creating economic stability and goes beyond that to contributing to economic reform and enabling and assisting the concerned state agencies and institutions to control economic problems and spread economic culture and avoid failure cases because economic media must be national economic media in word and meaning.

Al-Nusairi explained that media and economy are in a multi-faceted and permanently related partnership, and they are on the same front to face the challenges they face together, and if we assume that the economy can create successful media, then it is certain that the media can also create a successful economy, and this is what results in the success of the media institution if it has specialized economic leaders who are aware of the role of national media.

 Iraq's experience in this field is considered modern, as the economy needs support and assistance in promotion, analysis, planning and support in order to deliver a distinguished media message to the audience, whether through the press, television, radio, or modern media and communication channels.

Al-Nusairi concluded by saying: “Therefore, the economic media that can deliver a purposeful message and serve the economy and economic institutions is the one that attracts an important segment of society. It will remain and continue and achieve the strategic goals of supporting the national economy and developing the work of productive, financial and banking institutions.

The economic media must undertake positive participation in the process of development and economic reform by presenting an image of the nature of the future trends of the economy and identifying economic and development activities and events and available energies and encouraging and stimulating the economy and investment.”  link

Gold, Silver, and the Great Financial Reset

Kinesis Money:  12-6-2024

In a compelling episode of Live from the Vault, Kinesis Money’s Andrew Maguire joins forces with esteemed economist Dr. Stephen Leeb to uncover the seismic shifts occurring within the global financial landscape.

Gold, Silver, and the Great Financial Reset

Kinesis Money:  12-6-2024

In a compelling episode of Live from the Vault, Kinesis Money’s Andrew Maguire joins forces with esteemed economist Dr. Stephen Leeb to uncover the seismic shifts occurring within the global financial landscape.

Their insightful dialogue deftly navigates the accelerating decline of the US dollar’s dominance, the resurgent role of gold in contemporary monetary systems, and the significant moves being made by BRICS nations that are catalyzing a transition towards a multipolar world order.

At the heart of the discussion lies the growing vulnerability of the US dollar, long held as the world’s primary reserve currency. Maguire and Leeb analyze the multifaceted factors contributing to this decline, including rising inflation, expansive monetary policies, and geopolitical tensions.

The dollar’s entrenched status is increasingly at risk as other nations seek alternatives to mitigate their dependence on the dollar. This realignment is not just a financial shift; it represents a profound transformation in global power dynamics.

Amidst this tumult, gold is resurfacing as a form of monetary security. Maguire and Leeb highlight the critical role that gold plays in the evolving landscape, especially as central banks around the world begin to stockpile the precious metal. This strategic move underscores gold’s timeless allure as a reliable store of value and a hedge against fiat currency failures.

Leeb points out that the historical precedence of gold during economic upheaval has led to renewed interest in its intrinsic value.

As nations grapple with the challenges posed by inflationary pressures and the erosion of trust in fiat currencies, gold is being reconsidered not merely as a commodity, but as a cornerstone of sound monetary policy.

This revitalization of gold could reshape not only individual national economies but also the global financial framework.

The discussion also pivots towards the BRICS nations—Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa—whose collective muscle is creating a new paradigm in international finance. These countries are actively working to establish a multipolar world order that diminishes the spotlight on the US dollar.

The implications of their coordinated efforts are profound, signaling a shift toward diversified currencies and transactions that prioritize regional stability over reliance on a single power.

With initiatives such as the BRICS currency discussions and the promotion of trade in local currencies, these nations aim to create more equitable terms of trade that serve their interests. As Maguire suggests, this transition poses both opportunities and challenges, pushing for a recalibration of how financial systems are viewed and operated globally.

A particularly poignant element of the discussion is the dichotomy between spiritual and material perspectives in global economics. Leeb highlights the importance of recognizing the underlying values that drive economic behavior, suggesting that a purely materialistic approach, often seen in the relentless pursuit of GDP growth, is shortsighted.

 The co-hosts argue for a shift towards a more holistic view of economics—one that encompasses not just monetary success but also societal well-being and ethical considerations.

Such insights urge policymakers and individuals alike to rethink their relationship with wealth and prosperity. By fostering a balance between spiritual values and material pursuits, it may be possible to create a more sustainable and equitable financial ecosystem.

As Andrew Maguire and Dr. Stephen Leeb so effectively articulate, the current financial landscape is in flux, marked by the decline of the US dollar’s supremacy, the resurgence of gold as a monetary cornerstone, and the transformative ambitions of BRICS nations.

These changes compel us to reconsider our economic paradigms and the values that underpin them. In navigating these uncharted waters, embracing a more holistic view of economics may well equip us to face the future with resilience and integrity.

The implications of their insights are vast and warrant close attention from anyone interested in the dynamics of global finance, as the winds of change continue to shape our monetary future.

Iraq News Highlights and Points to Ponder  Saturday Afternoon 12-7-24

Is Iraq Affected Economically By The Current Events In Syria? Al-Sudani’s Advisor Explains

Money and business  Economy News – Baghdad  The Prime Minister's Advisor for Economic Affairs, Mazhar Mohammed Salih, confirmed the strength of the Iraqi economy, its financial flows and its trade relations, noting that this economy was not affected by the tensions taking place in the Syrian arena.

The Syrian economy is a sanctioned economy by countries such as the United States and some other European countries, and therefore all banking relations (for Iraq) with Syria are basically unavailable," Saleh said.

He explained that "trade with Syria is mostly border trade and consists of simple, natural civilian goods such as agricultural crops or something like that."

Is Iraq Affected Economically By The Current Events In Syria? Al-Sudani’s Advisor Explains

Money and business  Economy News – Baghdad  The Prime Minister's Advisor for Economic Affairs, Mazhar Mohammed Salih, confirmed the strength of the Iraqi economy, its financial flows and its trade relations, noting that this economy was not affected by the tensions taking place in the Syrian arena.

The Syrian economy is a sanctioned economy by countries such as the United States and some other European countries, and therefore all banking relations (for Iraq) with Syria are basically unavailable," Saleh said.

He explained that "trade with Syria is mostly border trade and consists of simple, natural civilian goods such as agricultural crops or something like that."

Limited" impact on border trade

Regarding the impact of the events in Syria on the exchange rate of the dollar in Iraq, Mazhar Muhammad Salih said that “the current events are in Syria and not in Iraq,” adding that “the problems in Syria may affect some of the simple border trade known, or which is civil or related to the tourism sector, and some simple problems and disturbances may occur, but they are not major disturbances.”

Coinciding with the advance of the Syrian armed opposition forces and their control over Syrian cities, the currency exchange markets in Baghdad witnessed, last Friday evening, a rise in the dollar exchange rate from 1495 dinars to 1510 dinars per dollar.

The Iraqi Prime Minister's advisor for economic affairs pointed out that "the Iraqi economy, by nature, has high cash flows from its oil trade and global trade with large trade sources, while the minor fluctuations that are taking place are nothing but colorful noise."

He explained that "the parallel markets usually benefit from any political event in neighboring countries, for example, to raise the price, and for speculators to benefit, so this is a temporary speculation that leads to very simple price disturbances, and has no relation to the Iraqi economy, and is called information markets, so what is happening in Syria at the present time will not affect the Iraqi economy, and our economy is completely isolated from the Syrian issue."

It is noteworthy that the volume of trade exchange between Iraq and Syria has exceeded the one billion dollar barrier, according to the head of the Iraqi-Syrian Business Council, Hassan Sheikh Zeini.

There are joint committees between the two countries looking for a mechanism for trade exchange away from the dollar, as Syria currently exchanges with the European currency, the euro, and the two countries may use the Russian ruble, the Japanese yen, the Chinese yuan, the Emirati dirham, or other currencies to sustain trade exchange between them, according to Sheikh Zini.

"Iraq is economically fortified"

Saleh stressed that "the country is immune and there is no fear for our trade because it is governed by the central policies of the state," noting that "Iraq obtains its budget from major oil revenues, which strengthen the banks' finances and finance Iraq's foreign trade, not the domestic market," adding that "the parallel market is a completely superficial market and does not indicate anything in reality about the Iraqi economy at the present time."

The Prime Minister's advisor for economic affairs stated that "the parallel market benefits from the neighboring unrest and does not pose any threat to the Iraqi economy and does not represent anything, and we are immune to what is happening in Syria," explaining that "the problems in Syria are not new to it and have existed since 2011, so there is no fear for the Iraqi economy, which is immune and neutral from the problems of others."

Saleh stressed that "our policies are disciplined, so what is happening in Syria does not affect the overall economic situation, and an increase in the exchange rate by one or two dollars could quickly return to its previous state, perhaps through a single statement."

He believed that "Iraq's economic situation is secure, its oil policies are calm, its trade relations with the outside world are going well, and its cash flows from cash revenues are good and beyond reproach, and thus the economic situation is stable."

Morgan Stanley Raises Oil Price Forecast For H2 2025

Economy  | Mawazine News – Baghdad   Morgan Stanley raised its Brent crude price forecast for the second half of 2025 and said it now expects a smaller surplus in the oil market for the full year after the OPEC+ alliance of oil producers decided to delay and slow plans to increase output. The

bank raised its Brent price forecast for the second half of 2025 to $70 a barrel from $66-$68 a barrel in a December 5 forecast.

The OPEC+ alliance, which groups members of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and allies including Russia, on Thursday delayed the start of oil output increases by three months to April.  The group said the cuts would be phased in until September 2026, nine months later than previously planned.   https://www.mawazin.net/Details.aspx?jimare=257205

Escalating Events In Syria “Confuse” Iraqi Markets

Posted on2024-12-07 by Sotaliraq   For several days, Iraqi markets have been facing a state of confusion due to the closure of the Iraqi-Syrian border against the backdrop of the rapid developments witnessed in the Syrian provinces and the continuous advance of the opposition forces and their control over large areas.

Iraq used to receive dozens of trucks loaded with Syrian export products daily, most notably agricultural products, in addition to household products, textiles, various food industries, oils, detergents and clothing, which now cover part of the needs of the Iraqi market. The

Baghdad government announced last Sunday the complete closure of the western international border adjacent to the Syrian side, considering Iraq's security to be one of the most important priorities, and any threat that could affect the country's territory and sovereignty will be confronted.

Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani stressed, during an emergency meeting of the Iraqi National Security Ministerial Council, the importance of tightening the measures taken to secure the international border with Syria.

In turn, Deputy Commander of Joint Operations Qais al-Muhammadawi said in press statements that the Iraqi border is completely closed, noting that the Iraqi forces are committed to the Prime Minister's orders regarding protecting the security and safety of the country's borders.

This caused confusion in the Iraqi local market, which relies on Syrian agricultural and industrial products for many of its imports.

Traders and businessmen demanded the reopening of border crossings for shipments to enter or exit between the two countries, stressing the importance of controlling and securing official border crossings and allowing the entry and exit of goods to avoid the economic damage that this closure will cause.

Economic researcher Ali Al-Amiri said that closing the border could result in tangible economic damage to the Iraqi economy, because economic relations between the two countries depend largely on the exchange of goods and products, especially daily consumer goods, and the cessation of this exchange leads to direct and indirect effects.

Al-Amiri added that Iraq imports a variety of goods from Syria, including agricultural products, such as vegetables and fruits, industrial products and food, and closing the border will lead to a shortage of these products in Iraqi markets, which may raise their prices and increase inflation.

He stated that the border roads between the two countries represent a major land transport corridor, and the movement of trucks will be disrupted, which will negatively affect the transport sector and push shipping companies to look for alternative routes at higher costs, especially since 70% of Syrian exports are agricultural products, the quantities of which exported to Iraq, according to the latest data, amounted to about 350 thousand tons annually.

The economic researcher explained that Syrian products are cheaper compared to their counterparts imported from other countries, and therefore their absence will lead to increased reliance on more expensive imports from other countries, which will worsen the living conditions of the Iraqi citizen.

Al-Amiri pointed out that these effects will consequently be reflected in cash flow and the rise in the value of the dollar against the dinar, due to the increased demand for the dollar and the increased need for foreign currencies to cover imports.

He  stressed that the increased need for foreign currencies increases pressure on the exchange rate of the dinar against the dollar, in addition to the increase in transportation costs, as traders are forced to look for alternatives through other ports or land routes, which raises import costs that are usually paid in dollars.

For his part, Majid Muzan, a member of the Federation of Iraqi Chambers of Commerce, said that trade exchange between Iraq and Syria includes various goods, most notably food and semi-finished goods, stressing that Iraq's trade with its surroundings is in the interest of neighboring countries due to the weakness of local industry.

Muzan added that the events taking place in Syria have negatively affected the Iraqi market, and their results have become negative for the local Iraqi economy, because Syria is considered a vital country in the region and possesses the industrial raw materials that Iraq needs.

According to the member of the Federation of Iraqi Chambers of Commerce, Aleppo is considered the capital of trade and industry in the region and a center for the most important manufacturing, paper, craft and plastic industries, stressing that the continuation of events in Syria will push traders to head to alternative markets in neighboring countries represented by Turkey and Iran.

Muzan criticized the weakness of local production and complete reliance on imports from outside Iraq, stressing the importance of developing and supporting local industries and opening industrial projects represented by manufacturing and plastic industries in order to protect the Iraqi economy from being affected by any regional events.

According to an official source in the Syrian regime government earlier, the volume of Syrian exports exceeded the 500 million euro barrier in the first six months of 2024, noting that most of the exports to Iraq are food commodities. Baghdad relies on imports from various countries around the world to meet the needs of local markets.

Iraq ranked first as the largest destination for Syrian exports in 2020, and subsequent data in 2021 showed a significant increase in Syrian exports to Iraq, as the value of exports exceeded 79 million euros in the first seven months of the same year.  LINK

Saturday,07-12-2024,AM 10:21   Taisir Al-Asadi  
The Iraqi Prime Minister's Advisor for Economic Affairs, Mazhar Mohammed Salih, confirmed the strength of the Iraqi economy, its financial flows and its trade relations, noting that this economy has not been affected by the tensions taking place in the Syrian arena.
 
Mazhar Muhammad Salih told Rudaw Media Network, "The Syrian economy is an economy sanctioned by countries, such as the United States and some other European countries, and therefore all banking relations (of Iraq) with Syria are basically unavailable."
 
He explained that "trade with Syria is mostly border trade and consists of simple, natural civilian goods such as agricultural crops or something like that."
 
"Limited" impact on border trade
 
Regarding the impact of the events in Syria on the exchange rate of the dollar in Iraq, Mazhar Muhammad Salih said that “the current events are in Syria and not in Iraq,” adding that “the problems in Syria may affect some of the simple border trade known, or which is civil or related to the tourism sector, and some simple problems and disturbances may occur, but they are not major disturbances.”
 
Coinciding with the advance of the Syrian armed opposition forces and their control over Syrian cities, the currency exchange markets in Baghdad witnessed, last Friday evening, a rise in the dollar exchange rate from 1495 dinars to 1510 dinars per dollar.
 
The Iraqi Prime Minister's advisor for economic affairs pointed out that "the Iraqi economy, by nature, has high cash flows from its oil trade and global trade with large trade sources, while the minor fluctuations that are taking place are nothing but colorful noise."
 
He explained that "the parallel markets usually benefit from any political event in neighboring countries, for example, to raise the price, and for speculators to benefit, so this is a temporary speculation that leads to very simple price disturbances, and has no relation to the Iraqi economy, and is called information markets, so what is happening in Syria at the present time will not affect the Iraqi economy, and our economy is completely isolated from the Syrian issue."

END OF CRYPTO CRACKDOWNS? LAWMAKER SAYS 'REGULATION BY ENFORCEMENT IS OVER'

A top lawmaker says the U.S. is shifting from “regulation by enforcement” to clear oversight, with new leadership poised to boost cryptocurrency and AI innovation.

A New Era for Crypto and AI Regulation

U.S. House Financial Services Committee Chairman Patrick McHenry has highlighted progress in crypto regulation, focusing on new leadership roles and the evolving oversight of cryptocurrencies and artificial intelligence (AI). In a post on social media platform X Friday, McHenry praised the creation of a “crypto and AI czar” as a major development.

“The mere fact that the U.S. now has a crypto and AI ‘czar’ reflects the impact of the Financial Services Committee,” he claimed, emphasizing:

The era of regulation by enforcement is over.

With folks like David Sacks and Paul Atkins, the future of the digital asset ecosystem in the U.S. is brighter than ever,”the congressman added. “Paul Atkins has the expertise and experience needed to restore faith in the SEC. I’m confident his leadership will lead to clarity for the digital asset ecosystem and ensure U.S. capital markets remain the envy of the world,” the congressman continued.

President-elect Donald Trump recently announced two significant appointmentsDavid Sacks as the White House AI and Cryptocurrency Czar, and Paul Atkins as Chair of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), replacing Chair Gary Gensler. 

Sacks, a venture capitalist and former Paypal executive, is tasked with developing a legal framework to bolster the U.S. crypto industry and ensure global competitiveness in artificial intelligence. 

Atkins, a former SEC commissioner known for his pro-crypto stance, is expected to shift the agency’s approach towards more lenient regulations, potentially easing enforcement actions against digital asset firms. 

These appointments signal the incoming administration’s intent to foster innovation in emerging technologies while reconsidering existing regulatory measures.

McHenry has announced he will retire from Congress at the end of his current term, which concludes in January 2025As Chairman of the House Financial Services Committee, he has been a leading advocate for clear regulatory frameworks in the digital asset sector.

His comments come amid growing calls for a balanced regulatory approach that fosters innovation while ensuring investor protection. Industry observers have long criticized “regulation by enforcement” for creating uncertainty and stifling growth, making this transition a welcomed change for stakeholders.

The new focus on leadership and structured policies marks a pivotal moment for U.S. cryptocurrency and AI development, with advocates anticipating a more supportive environment for innovation.
