Tishwash: "A quantum leap"... Al-Ahli Bank of Iraq signs its largest digital expansion deal to launch more innovative banking services

The National Bank of Iraq praised the investment developments taking place in Iraq, stressing that this is a strategic step that enhances the digital transformation in the country, while noting that the development of banking services is in line with the highest international standards.

The bank said in a statement, "The bank has approved the purchase of 51% of the shares of both the Iraqi Electronic Gateway for Financial Services Company (SWITCH) and the Digital Future for Electronic Distribution Services Company," noting that "the General Assembly approved the authorization of the authorized manager, Ayman Omran Abu Dahim, to sign all agreements, documents and papers necessary to complete and implement the investment decisions."

He explained that "this step is an integrated business model that combines the banking solvency and advanced technological capabilities of the two companies, enabling the bank to launch an innovative digital services system that includes developing national payments, enhancing financial inclusion for individuals and small and medium-sized enterprises, as well as expanding the network of partnerships with global financial institutions.

This expansion comes in light of the increasing demand for financial technology solutions and smart payment applications in the Iraqi market."

He explained that "this investment opens the door for the bank to integrate its banking expertise with the technical capabilities of the two companies, which will enhance the development of advanced electronic payment services, transfers, digital wallets, and points of sale, in addition to launching rapidly evolving digital platforms that meet market needs and keep pace with digital transformation trends."

For his part, the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the National Bank of Iraq, Basim Khalil Al-Salem, said that “the purchase of 51% of Switch and Digital Future companies is a strategic step that reflects confidence in the ability of the Iraqi economy to lead the digital transformation in the region.

This expansion is in line with the bank’s vision of building an advanced financial system based on innovation and advanced technologies, and supporting the development of banking services in accordance with the highest international standards.”

Ayman Abu Dahim, the authorized manager of the National Bank of Iraq, said, “This investment represents a qualitative leap for the National Bank of Iraq, as it provides an advanced technological infrastructure that enables the bank to expand its digital services and launch new products that meet the growing market needs.

The integration of the bank’s expertise and the technical capabilities of the two companies will contribute to strengthening the electronic payments system and providing smart and secure solutions that enhance the customer experience and support the digital transformation in the Iraqi banking sector.” link

Tishwash: Sudani: The end of UNAMI's mission does not mean the end of the partnership between Iraq and the United Nations.

Outgoing Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani said on Saturday that the end of the UNAMI mission’s work in Iraq does not mean the end of the partnership between the country and the United Nations, while welcoming the selection of former President Barham Salih to be the new High Commissioner for Refugees.

This came in a joint press statement held by Al-Sudani with the Secretary-General of the United Nations, Antonio Guterres, on the sidelines of the official announcement ceremony for the end of the mandate of the United Nations Assistance Mission for Iraq (UNAMI).

Al-Sudani said in the statement, "We highly value the work of the UNAMI mission in Iraq since its establishment in 2003 in a country that has suffered greatly from dictatorship, wars and terrorism, but Iraq emerged victorious thanks to the sacrifices and courage of its people."

He added that the end of the UNAMI mission does not mean the end of the partnership between Iraq and the United Nations, but rather represents the beginning of a new chapter of cooperation, especially in the areas of development, comprehensive economic growth, and providing advice. He further stated that “our relationship with the United Nations through the UNAMI mission was pivotal and effective in meeting Iraq’s needs and helping it until it reached the stage of being fully self-reliant.”

Al-Sudani went on to say that "the relationship file today has moved from crisis management efforts to long-term development planning efforts, and reliance on self-efforts (...) to achieve security, stability and prosperity through the efforts of Iraqis despite the various challenges."

He added, "We have succeeded in consolidating the foundations of democracy through holding the sixth parliamentary elections, and before that there were the provincial council elections and the Kurdistan Region Parliament," considering that "this confirms our commitment to the constitution and the law."

Al-Sudani also pointed out that "the recent elections were described as the most organized and credible and took place in a free atmosphere, and they recorded a remarkable increase in the participation rate, which exceeded 56 percent."

The caretaker prime minister of Iraq added, "We look forward to establishing relations with the United Nations based on a balanced partnership, mutual respect, and through joint programs towards a supportive partnership focused on sustainable development."

He continued, saying, "During this critical and sensitive period in the region and the world, we adopted a balanced foreign policy based on securing interests and preserving sovereignty, and we were able to strengthen and develop our regional and international relations, and spare the country the repercussions of conflict and crises in the region."

Al-Sudani expressed his welcome for the selection of former Iraqi President Barham Salih to fill the position of United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, saying that this step "means a lot in supporting this important humanitarian issue, and that Iraq, with its political and influential figures, contributes to finding solutions and providing international support and assistance to refugees, not only in the region, but throughout the world."

The outgoing Prime Minister announced that "in recognition of the role and sacrifices of the United Nations, especially the late Sergio Vieira de Mello and his colleagues, we announce the naming of one of the streets of the capital, Baghdad, extending from the Dar al-Diyafa intersection to the Ibn Sina Hospital intersection, as United Nations Street."

Al-Sudani concluded his statement by saying that "a memorial will be placed next to the Unknown Soldier monument in honor of the United Nations' role in Iraq in previous years." link

Clare: Economists: A sharp rise in the dollar exchange rate will put the Central Bank and the Iraqi economy in a very difficult situation.

Saturday, December 13, 2025 Baghdad – One News

Economic experts considered the Iraqi Central Bank's sudden suspension of the dollar transfer platform before the scheduled date and without an official announcement to be a step far from transparency.

Experts indicated that the suspension of the platform without an official announcement by the Central Bank indicates uncertainty and fear about the consequences of suspending the platform on dollar exchange rates.

The lack of an announcement could give the Central Bank an opportunity to disavow and evade the decision to suspend the platform and return to operating the platform, even temporarily, in the event that the dollar begins to rise to high rates.

They pointed out that it is also possible that the platform's shutdown without an official announcement was a trial measure to test the market's ability to adapt to the new situation without a platform, and how the demand for the dollar and its exchange rates might be after this sudden platform shutdown.

They added that a significant rise in the dollar exchange rate would put the Central Bank, the markets, and the Iraqi economy in a very difficult situation. LINK

Frank26 When we see the Iraqi dinar on Forex being traded, that's when we can all celebrate. There are many factors that will show the new exchange rate is in our mix. Another example would be the HCL or the salaries.

Walkingstick They will use multiple exchange rates more than likely because that's what they're talking about...A fixed rate in country and they're going to use a float outside of the country.

Silver Shorts Running Scared | Alasdair Macleod

Liberty and Finance: 12-13-2025

Alasdair MacLeod explains that the latest FOMC meeting confirms the Federal Reserve is choosing inflation by expanding short term Treasury purchases which will weaken the dollar further.

He warns that rising gold and silver prices are signaling accelerating loss of purchasing power and that major foreign holders like Japanese institutions are reducing their appetite for United States debt.

Macleod describes severe structural shortages in silver driven by India’s surging industrial demand and China’s retreat from supplying global stockpiles which is forcing a major repricing.

He concludes that the combination of runaway deficits, declining currency value, and tightening physical supply across metals points to a highly inflationary period ahead and a looming risk for equities and credit based assets.

Iraq vs. Other Restructuring Nations — Who Is Actually Ready?

Why currency position matters more than predictions

Many nations are discussed in “RV” circles. Very few meet the structural requirements for a legitimate currency adjustment.

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

Iraq vs. Other Restructuring Nations — Who Is Actually Ready?

Why currency position matters more than predictions

Many nations are discussed in “RV” circles. Very few meet the structural requirements for a legitimate currency adjustment.

Overview

Currency revaluations follow structure, not rumors, social media claims, or geopolitical drama.
Iraq has completed more prerequisite steps than most frequently mentioned restructuring nations.
Comparative positioning helps currency holders replace speculation with informed patience.

Key Developments

Legal Authority Matters:
Iraq operates under a legally empowered central bank framework confirmed by IMF Article IV reviews. Many other discussed nations remain under capital controls, external supervision, or fragmented authority.
Trade Infrastructure Is Activating:
Iraq’s ports, corridors, and regional trade links are moving from construction to operational phases. Several peer countries still rely on announcements rather than settled trade flows.
Banking Integration Is Measurable:
Iraq continues AML/CFT upgrades, correspondent banking restoration, and settlement alignment. In contrast, many “RV-hyped” nations lack international banking connectivity or settlement credibility.
Official Communication Is Disciplined:
The Central Bank of Iraq publicly denies near-term rate changes — a sign of institutional maturity. Silence or denial is common before real adjustments, not after.

Comparative Snapshot

Iraq: Sovereignty restored, trade activating, banking reform ongoing
Other Restructuring Nations:

Some lack unified central bank control
Some remain under sanctions or heavy capital restrictions
Some have trade announcements without settlement capacity
Some have no IMF or BIS alignment at all

Not all restructuring paths are equal.

Why It Matters to Currency Holders

Position Beats Prediction: Knowing where a country sits prevents emotional decision-making.
Process Protects Capital: Countries that adjust rates prematurely experience inflation, reversals, or capital flight.
Denials Are Data: Central bank statements rejecting rumors confirm sequencing, not failure.
Patience Is Strategic: Value follows stability — always.

Key Insight:
Countries closest to adjustment are often the quietest.

Implications for the Global Reset

Pillar 1 — Sequenced Normalization: Nations normalize sovereignty, trade, banking, and fiscal alignment before value changes.
Pillar 2 — Trade-Backed Systems: Currency strength increasingly reflects real trade corridors and settlement capacity, not peg fantasies.

Bottom Line

This comparison is not about dates.
It’s about readiness.

Iraq is further along the runway than most — but the aircraft has not yet lifted.

Sources

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

Why Silence From Central Banks Is Often the Strongest Signal

What real currency transitions look like before value changes

In legitimate monetary transitions, the loudest phase is preparation — and the quietest phase comes just before change.

Overview

Central banks do not telegraph currency adjustments in advance.
Silence is standard practice during testing, alignment, and final verification phases.
Public “leaks,” countdowns, and promises are not how monetary systems operate.

Key Developments

Operational Risk Control:
Central banks avoid public signaling to prevent speculation, arbitrage, capital flight, and market instability.
System Testing Happens Quietly:
Payment rails, liquidity windows, and settlement systems are tested internally and bilaterally — not announced.
Communication Comes Last:
Official statements are issued after decisions are finalized, not before execution.
Denials Are Normal:
Public rejections of rumors protect the system until activation conditions are met.

What Silence Usually Means

Infrastructure is being validated
Liquidity access is being coordinated
Cross-border settlement readiness is being confirmed
Compliance thresholds are being finalized

None of these require public participation.

Why It Matters

History shows that successful currency transitions are boring, quiet, and procedural — not dramatic, emotional, or publicly hyped.

Why This Matters to Currency Holders

Silence ≠ Delay — it often signals discipline
Noise creates losses — silence protects capital
Gurus speak when institutions cannot — and should not
Markets move after readiness, not excitement

Key Truth:
If central banks were talking loudly, the system would not be ready.

Implications for the Global Reset

Pillar 1 — Controlled Transition: Monetary resets require order, not emotion.
Pillar 2 — Institutional Timing: Value changes occur only when systems can absorb them safely.

Bottom Line

Silence is not absence.
It is containment.

When real change happens, you will not need a warning — the system will already be ready.

Sources

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

A Message to Our Currency Holders

From the Seeds of Wisdom Team

If you’ve been holding foreign currency for many years, you are not foolish. You are not late.
And you were not wrong to believe that the global financial system would eventually change.

What was wrong was how that change was explained to you.

For too long, the conversation has been dominated by dates, rumors, and personalities — not by structure, systems, and verifiable facts. Repeated promises of “this week” created cycles of hope and disappointment that were never grounded in how currencies actually adjust.

That is not your failure.
It is a failure of information.

Our purpose here is simple:

To replace speculation with evidence
To replace fear and hype with understanding
To replace dependency on gurus with personal clarity

We believe currency value changes occur — but only after sovereignty, trade, banking, settlement systems, and fiscal coordination are in place. History, institutions, and global financial architecture all confirm this sequence.

You will not see us give dates.

You will not see us promise rates.

You will not see us amplify rumors.

Instead, you will see:

Verified developments
Institutional proof
Context for where nations are in the process
And honest explanations of what still needs to happen

This is how hope becomes durable — not fragile.

If a global reset brings currency revaluations, it will come quietly, structurally, and after readiness. When that happens, preparation will matter far more than prediction.

Until then:

Protect your identity
Organize your documentation
Verify everything
And never hand your discernment to anyone who cannot show proof

You deserve truth — not timelines.

Thank you for walking this path with us.

Iraq Economic News and Points To Ponder Sunday Morning 12-14-25

An Economist Reveals The Secret Behind The Withdrawal Of Deposits From Iraqi Banks.

Time: 12/13/2025 16:21:33 Readings: 405 times {Economic: Al-Furat News} An economic expert, Salah Nouri, revealed the main reasons behind the decline in deposits in Iraqi banks, attributing this to global economic developments and interest rate policies that directly affected the behavior of depositors within Iraq.

An Economist Reveals The Secret Behind The Withdrawal Of Deposits From Iraqi Banks.

Nouri told Al-Furat News Agency that: “The US Federal Reserve’s resort to lowering interest rates during periods of economic recession leads to a decrease in returns on bank deposits, which prompts individuals and companies to withdraw their money and look for investment alternatives that achieve better returns.”

He added, "The decrease in interest rates is not in the interest of the groups that have bank deposits, as a large part of the liquidity is directed towards buying gold as a safe haven, which leads to an increase in its prices as a result of increased demand, in addition to the trend towards investing in securities markets such as stocks and bonds."

The expert explained that "Iraq is affected by these changes due to its connection to the global economy," noting that "the Central Bank of Iraq adopts a monetary policy based on diversifying investments, which includes holding US debt bonds, buying gold, and investing in the Euro, with the aim of reducing risks and enhancing financial stability."

He stressed that "the decline in deposits does not necessarily reflect weakness in the banking sector, but rather expresses a change in the orientations of investors and depositors as a result of global economic conditions and monetary policies." LINK

Rob Cunningham | KUWL.show @KuwlShow

25 Questions, $3.7 Quadrillion

About The Convergence of DTCC, U.S. Treasury, Ripple, RLUSD & XRP

1. What happens when the world’s largest settlement utility – DTCC – moves to tokenized rails?

Rob Cunningham: The Convergence of DTCC, US Treasury, Ripple, RLUSD, and XRP

12-12-2025

Rob Cunningham | KUWL.show @KuwlShow

25 Questions, $3.7 Quadrillion

About The Convergence of DTCC, U.S. Treasury, Ripple, RLUSD & XRP

1. What happens when the world’s largest settlement utility – DTCC – moves to tokenized rails?

Q: Why would the DTCC, which safely moves $3.7 quadrillion a year through legacy rails, suddenly step into blockchain tokenization?

A: Because the old rails can’t support real-time global liquidity, 24/7 settlement, or tokenized assets. They were built for a slower age.

Q: And when DTCC modernizes, does the world follow?

A: Whoever controls the settlement layer of America controls the future of global liquidity.
So yes – the world must follow.

2. What kind of blockchain qualifies for DTCC-level settlement?

Q: Would DTCC ever rely on a chain with probabilistic finality?
With MEV extraction?
With congestion-based fees?
With uncertainty or frequent outages?

A: Of course not. A quadrillion-dollar system cannot run on chaos.

Q: Then which systems could support that level of global settlement?

A: Only ledgers with deterministic finality, predictable fees, regulatory compliance, institutional trust, and native support for asset issuance. This drastically narrows the field.

3. Why did two of the most powerful U.S. financial officials join Ripple?

Q: Why would Michael Bodson — former CEO of DTCC – join Ripple’s advisory board?

A: Because he recognizes Ripple’s architecture mirrors the settlement environment he spent a decade modernizing.

Q: Why would RosIe Rios – former U.S. Treasurer with oversight over the nation’s currency – also join Ripple’s board?

A: Because she sees where the monetary system is going:
Tokenized dollars.
Tokenized assets.
A neutral, global liquidity asset.
A real-time settlement ledger.

And Ripple is building exactly that.

4. What does RLUSD being regulated by the NYDFS tell us?

Q: Why does Ripple choose the most stringent regulatory regime in the country – the NYDFS – for issuing its stablecoin?

A: Because if you want to operate on America’s financial plumbing, you must build at America’s highest regulatory standard.

Q: And what does NYDFS require of a stablecoin?

A: Full dollar backing.
Audits.
Transparency.
No rehypothecation.
Operational integrity.

Q: What ledger fits that requirement without modification?

A: XRPL – the ledger built for institutional-grade, regulated settlement.

5. Why is RLUSD paired with XRP?

Q: What is RLUSD? A payment instrument or a liquidity instrument?

A: It is the cash leg – the digital dollar.

Q: But can a dollar, even a tokenized one, bridge FX markets, settle cross-jurisdictional flows, or provide global liquidity?

A: No. That requires a neutral bridge asset.

Q: So if RLUSD is the cash leg, what is the liquidity leg?

A: XRP – by design, by architecture, by function.

6. What ledger is built for institutional settlement?

Q: Why was XRPL built with deterministic finality instead of probabilistic settlement?

A: Because real-time finance cannot settle on uncertainty.

Q: Why does XRPL have no MEV? No gas auctions? Predictable fees?

A: Because institutional liquidity cannot be subject to market manipulation or extraction.

Q: Why does the XRPL support issued assets (IOUs) natively? Tokenization? Atomic settlement?

A: Because its purpose is to be the global clearing and liquidity layer for digital finance.

7. Why is ISO 20022 important here?

Q: Does global finance run on random messaging formats?

A: No. It runs on standardization – ISO 20022.

Q: Which blockchain ecosystem was designed from inception to align with ISO 20022 semantics?

A: Ripple’s network and XRPL.

Q: Why does this matter?

A: Because tokenized finance requires a standardized global language for value.

8. Why Rosie Rios and America 250 matter?

Q: Why would the Chair of America 250, a Congressionally chartered commission defining America’s future story, be tied to Ripple?

A: Because America’s 250th anniversary is not merely symbolic — it is a narrative reset for national identity, sovereignty, competitiveness, and economic renewal.

Q:: And is a modernized U.S. financial system part of that story?

A: Inevitably – yes. America cannot lead the next century on obsolete rails.

9. How do all of these pieces converge?

Q: Are these isolated coincidences?

DTCC tokenization approved by SEC
Michael Bodson advising Ripple
Rosie Rios advising Ripple
NYDFS-regulated RLUSD
XRP paired as the liquidity leg
XRPL built for institutional-grade settlement
ISO 20022 becoming the global standard
The U.S. seeking financial modernization

A: No. When independent events align perfectly across governance, regulation, architecture, and purpose – that is not coincidence. That is convergence.

10. What is the world being prepared for?

Q: What system emerges when:

The cash leg is RLUSD
The liquidity leg is XRP
The ledger is XRPL
The institutional authority is DTCC + U.S. Treasury
The messaging standard is ISO 20022
The regulatory oversight is NYDFS
The narrative framework is America 250

A: A unified, regulated global settlement engine for the next century.

Q: And what role does XRP play?

A: The same role gold once played: The universal liquidity asset that makes all other assets move.

THE BIG REVELATION

Q: If God designed the world with lawful order, honest weights and measures, and immutable principles…which financial system would best reflect Divine Truth?

A: One built on transparency, speed, accuracy, neutrality, sovereignty, and truth.

Q: Which digital asset ecosystem embodies that design?

A: XRP and the XRP Ledger – not by hype, but by function, alignment, and destiny.

Jon Dowling: Weekly RV Update for December 12, 2025

12-12-2025

As we navigate through the complex web of global events, the Jon Dowling RV report for Friday, December 12th, 2025, sheds light on pivotal developments across the geopolitical, financial, and economic landscapes.

This update is a must-read for anyone looking to stay informed about the shifting sands of international politics, the evolving cryptocurrency market, U.S. Treasury policies, and the dynamics of the precious metals market.

The report begins on a significant note by analyzing the ongoing power shift in Iraq.

Jon Dowling: Weekly RV Update for December 12, 2025

12-12-2025

The report begins on a significant note by analyzing the ongoing power shift in Iraq.

The gradual transfer of control from the U.S. to Iraqi leadership and citizens is a landmark event that signifies a move towards decentralization and embodies the aspirations of national unity.

This transition is not just a political maneuver but is also contextualized within historical and prophetic frameworks.

The legacy of Iraq’s prime ministers and a reference to Kim Clement’s prophecy add layers of depth to this narrative, suggesting that this development is part of a larger, more complex global adjustment.

The conversation then shifts to the cryptocurrency sphere, where the XRP Ledger (XRPL) is highlighted as the leading decentralized “bridgecoin” poised for future blockchain integration.

This is particularly noteworthy when contrasted with Bitcoin’s current dominance and the significant financial backing received from major institutions like BlackRock.

The report underscores the importance of cryptocurrencies that offer real utility, are backed by solid funding, precious metals, and are designed with long-term sustainability in mind. As the cryptocurrency market continues to evolve, the focus on utility and sustainability will likely become increasingly important.

U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent’s recent remarks are also scrutinized in the report, focusing on several positive economic indicators.

These include declining interest rates, improvements in the housing and rental markets, and the anticipation of large tax refunds for American households starting early in 2026.

The potential for refunds ranging from $1,000 to $2,000 per household is seen as part of broader fiscal reforms that are linked to President Trump’s initiatives and efforts in global asset recoveries.

These developments are crucial for understanding the current trajectory of the U.S. economy and the potential implications for household finances.

The precious metals market is another key area of discussion, with the report noting significant gains in silver prices and steady valuations for gold.

The growing synergy between blockchain-based cryptocurrencies and precious metals is highlighted as a combined strategy that not only preserves wealth but also enables growth. This intersection of traditional wealth preservation methods and modern financial technologies is an area worth watching, as it could redefine investment strategies in the years to come.

As the year draws to a close, the report encourages a stance of positivity during the holiday season. Amidst the complexities and uncertainties of global events, the message is one of hope and resilience. The promise of updates as developments unfold is a reassuring note for those keen on staying informed.

For those seeking a deeper dive into these topics, watching the full Jon Dowling RV report video is highly recommended. The comprehensive analysis and expert insights provide a richer understanding of the multifaceted developments shaping our world.

In conclusion, the Jon Dowling RV report for December 12th, 2025, offers a compelling overview of the critical trends and events influencing geopolitics, cryptocurrency, U.S. economic policies, and the precious metals market. As we step into the new year, understanding these dynamics will be crucial for navigating the complexities of the global landscape.

Why the Foundation Always Comes Before the Revaluation

Legal, asset, and settlement corrections must be completed before any currency value can change.

Overview

Revaluation cannot occur on top of unresolved legal claims, disputed ownership, or broken trust accounting.

Silence does not mean inactivity — it signals infrastructure, legal, and compliance alignment behind the scenes.

Good Afternoon Dinar Recaps,

Why the Foundation Always Comes Before the Revaluation

Legal, asset, and settlement corrections must be completed before any currency value can change.

Overview

Revaluation cannot occur on top of unresolved legal claims, disputed ownership, or broken trust accounting.
Foundational work is underway globally, including land, water, resource, debt, and settlement-system reconciliation.
Silence does not mean inactivity — it signals infrastructure, legal, and compliance alignment behind the scenes.

Key Developments

Trust and ownership corrections are being finalized across sovereign land, water, mineral, and resource systems.
Digital settlement rails are replacing legacy systems, requiring testing, auditing, and interoperability before activation.
Sovereign balance sheets are being cleaned, including debt restructuring, asset valuation, and reserve realignment.
Legal jurisdiction must be clear before value can move, preventing downstream litigation or systemic failure.
Global institutions prioritize stability over speed, ensuring resets occur once — and correctly.

Why It Matters

For years, the conversation around currency revaluation focused on timing instead of structure. But history shows that no financial reset succeeds unless the foundation is solid. Ownership must be verified, systems must reconcile, and settlement rails must function flawlessly before value can be reassigned.

This is not delay by indecision — it is preparation by design.

Why This Matters to Currency Holders

Foreign currency holders have been conditioned to expect sudden events, secret dates, and instant windfalls. In reality, revaluation is the final step, not the first. It comes after legal disputes are settled, after assets are properly titled, and after global settlement systems are tested and aligned.

When you see trust settlements, land and water rights clarified, asset tokenization, ISO migrations, and cross-border payment testing — you are not watching setbacks. You are watching readiness.

Understanding this protects you from false hope and positions you to recognize real progress when it appears.

Implications for the Global Reset

Pillar 1 — Foundation Before Function: Legal clarity, asset integrity, and settlement reliability must exist before currencies can be repriced.
Pillar 2 — Orderly Transition: Sustainable resets are engineered methodically to avoid collapse, litigation, or loss of public trust.

What This Means Going Forward

No legitimate institution will announce RV dates in advance.
No revaluation occurs without compliant systems and verified assets.
Real progress looks slow — until it’s complete.

The reset will not be noisy.
It will be finished.

This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

How Currency Rates Change — The 5 Steps to Watch

Applies to all currencies | A reality-based framework for understanding rate movement

Overview

Currency rates do not move on rumors or emotion, but through structured central-bank and banking-system processes.
Every legitimate rate change follows a repeatable sequence, regardless of whether a nation is emerging, developed, or restructuring.
Rates move last — not first, after legal, trade, banking, and policy conditions are aligned.

Key Developments

Step 1 — Legal Authority & Central Bank Control:
A country must have a legally empowered central bank with authority over monetary and exchange-rate policy. Without this, rate changes cannot occur.
What to watch: Central bank laws, independence mandates, removal of external oversight or controls.
Step 2 — Real Trade & Economic Activity:
Currency demand is created through settled trade — not announcements. Imports, exports, services, and capital flows must function consistently.
What to watch: Export/import volumes, operating trade corridors, cross-border settlement activity.
Step 3 — Banking & Settlement System Readiness:
Domestic banks must be compliant, liquid, and connected to international correspondent and payment systems to prevent shocks when rates adjust.
What to watch: IMF or BIS banking assessments, AML/CFT compliance upgrades, payment and settlement reforms.
Step 4 — Fiscal & Monetary Coordination:
Government budgets, reserves, inflation control, and central-bank policy must align. Poor coordination triggers inflation, capital flight, or reversals.
What to watch: Budget discipline, reserve adequacy, inflation trends, central bank–finance ministry alignment.
Step 5 — Managed Currency Adjustment:
Only after stability is proven do central banks adjust rates — typically gradually and with communication. Sudden overnight revaluations are extremely rare.
What to watch: Official central bank announcements, IMF program updates, policy statements — not social media.

Why It Matters

Understanding how currencies actually move separates preparation from speculation. History shows that when steps are skipped, the result is instability — not prosperity. Sustainable rate adjustments occur only after systems, policy, and trade flows are aligned and tested.

Why This Matters to Currency Holders

Currency holders often expect value changes to arrive suddenly, driven by headlines or politics. In reality, structure always comes before value.
Skipping steps creates losses, not gains. Headlines are not execution. Patience grounded in verified system activity protects capital far better than hype ever will.

Rates move last — after everything else is ready.

Implications for the Global Reset

Pillar 1 — Structure Before Value: Legal authority, trade flow, and banking readiness must exist before any currency can be repriced.
Pillar 2 — Managed Transition: Global resets favor controlled, coordinated adjustments over shock events to preserve system stability.

Iraq Closes UN Oversight Era — Trade & Sovereignty Shift

December 2025

Overview

Iraq has formally ended the United Nations Assistance Mission for Iraq (UNAMI), closing a political oversight chapter that began in 2003.
The move marks a transition to full domestic sovereignty, with policy decisions no longer under UN political supervision.
Major trade infrastructure projects are shifting from construction to operational readiness, including ports, roads, and regional logistics corridors.

Key Developments

UNAMI Closure Secured: Iraq requested and obtained approval to end UNAMI, with the mission concluding by December 31, 2025 under UN Security Council Resolution 2732.
Sovereign Control Restored: The end of UN political oversight reflects confidence in Iraq’s governance, security, and institutional capacity.
Trade Infrastructure Advances: Projects such as the Grand Faw Port and new land-sea corridors are moving toward activation, expanding Iraq’s role in regional trade.
Monetary Authority Confirmed: The Central Bank of Iraq (CBI) retains sole legal authority over exchange-rate policy, as reaffirmed by IMF Article IV reporting.

Why It Matters

This development signals a structural transition, not a headline event. Countries do not close UN political missions or activate regional trade corridors without meeting governance, compliance, and stability thresholds recognized by international institutions.

Why This Matters to Currency Holders

Sovereign Authority: Ending UNAMI confirms Iraq’s ability to set internal and external policy independently — a prerequisite for autonomous monetary and financial decisions.
Trade Activation: Operational progress at Grand Faw Port and new logistics links strengthens real economic activity that supports currency normalization.
Stability Signal: Verified confidence in governance, security, and compliance typically precedes financial reform phases.
Foundation Before Value: Sovereignty and trade infrastructure come first. Currency value follows structure — not speculation.

Bottom Line:
This is not an RV announcement. It is a documented shift in sovereignty and trade readiness that historically comes before monetary and currency adjustments.

Implications for the Global Reset

Pillar 1 — Sovereignty Restoration: Independent governance is a non-negotiable condition before monetary realignment can occur.
Pillar 2 — Trade-Backed Stability: Functional trade corridors and logistics capacity underpin sustainable currency systems in a restructuring global economy.

Where Iraq Sits in the Currency Reset Process — A 5-Step Reality Check

Why structure, not speculation, determines timing

Overview

Iraq has completed critical foundation steps required before any legitimate currency adjustment can occur.
Recent sovereignty and trade developments place Iraq mid-process, not at the finish line.
Understanding position matters more than predicting dates for currency holders.

Key Developments

Step 1 — Legal Authority & Central Bank Control (Completed):
Iraq’s Central Bank operates under CBI Law No. 56 of 2004, granting full authority over monetary and exchange-rate policy. IMF Article IV reporting confirms this legal framework remains intact and functional.
Step 2 — Real Trade & Economic Activity (Advancing):
Activation of Grand Faw Port, new road corridors, and maritime trade links signal expanding trade capacity beyond oil. These are operational foundations, not announcements.
Step 3 — Banking & Settlement Readiness (Ongoing):
Iraq continues compliance upgrades, correspondent banking restoration, and settlement alignment under IMF and BIS standards. This step is deliberate and heavily supervised.
Step 4 — Fiscal & Monetary Coordination (Stabilizing):
Inflation moderation, reserve management, and coordination between the Ministry of Finance and CBI show measurable improvement, but full maturity takes time.
Step 5 — Managed Currency Adjustment (Not Yet Activated):
The CBI has publicly denied near-term exchange-rate changes, confirming Iraq has not yet entered the final adjustment phase.

Why It Matters

Currency systems do not skip steps. Iraq’s progress reflects sequenced normalization, not delay or deception. Each completed layer reduces systemic risk and increases durability when value adjustments eventually occur.

Why This Matters to Currency Holders

Position Over Prediction: Knowing where Iraq is in the process is more valuable than guessing when rates change.
Proof Replaces Rumors: Official denials of near-term rate changes are not bad news — they confirm process integrity.
Foundation Protects Value: Countries that adjust rates prematurely experience reversals, inflation, or capital flight.
Patience Is Strategic: Structural readiness is what protects purchasing power when change finally comes.

Key Takeaway:
Iraq is building the runway, not launching the aircraft. Rates move only after the runway is complete.

Implications for the Global Reset

Pillar 1 — Sequenced Sovereignty: Ending UNAMI and restoring full policy control aligns Iraq with global restructuring norms.
Pillar 2 — Trade-Backed Currency Systems: Physical trade infrastructure precedes monetary revaluation in every modern reset cycle.

Iraq Economic News and Points To Ponder Saturday Afternoon 12-13-25

Oil Prices Rise Due To Tensions Between The US And Venezuela.

Economy | 12/12/2025 Oil prices rose as the prospect of the United States seizing more Venezuelan oil tankers exacerbated supply concerns, but prices were still on track for a weekly decline amid optimism about a potential peace agreement between Russia and Ukraine.

Brent crude futures rose 29 cents, or 0.5 percent, to $61.57 a barrel by 0115 GMT, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude futures gained 31 cents, or 0.5 percent, to $57.91 a barrel.

Oil Prices Rise Due To Tensions Between The US And Venezuela.

Brent crude futures rose 29 cents, or 0.5 percent, to $61.57 a barrel by 0115 GMT, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude futures gained 31 cents, or 0.5 percent, to $57.91 a barrel.

Both benchmarks fell by about 1.5 percent on Thursday, according to Reuters.

Six sources familiar with the matter said on Thursday that the United States was preparing to seize more ships carrying Venezuelan oil after detaining a tanker this week, intensifying pressure on Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro.
The tanker's seizure raised concerns about supply disruptions.

“After selling on expectations that supply pressures would ease amid hopes for a peace deal between Russia and Ukraine, buying to cut losses emerged after the U.S. seized a Venezuelan tanker,” said Hiroyuki Kikukawa, an analyst at Nissan Securities Investment.

“Peace negotiations between Russia and Ukraine will remain the main focus next week and beyond,” he added, noting that West Texas Intermediate crude could test the $55 level if a deal is reached.

A peace agreement between Russia and Ukraine would likely increase supplies of Russian oil, which is currently under Western sanctions.

The leaders of Britain, France, and Germany spoke by phone on Wednesday with U.S. President Donald Trump to discuss Washington’s latest peace efforts to end the war in Ukraine, in what they described as a “crucial moment” in the process.

But on Thursday, a Ukrainian security official said that Ukraine had launched a drone attack targeting, for the first time, a Russian oil platform in the Caspian Sea, halting production at the Lukoil-owned facility.

Meanwhile, the International Energy Agency (IEA) raised its forecast for global oil demand growth in 2026 while lowering its supply growth forecast in its latest monthly oil market report released Thursday.

The IEA attributed the higher demand forecast to a stronger global economy and reduced supplies from countries under sanctions.

However, data released Thursday by the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) indicated that global oil supply will converge with demand in 2026, a prediction that contradicts the IEA's and other forecasts of a significant supply glut. https://www.mawazin.net/Details.aspx?jimare=271476

A Historic Figure: Silver Price Rises Above $65 For The First Time

Stock Exchange The price of silver on the stock exchange hit a new record high on Friday, rising above $65 an ounce for the first time in history.

Silver futures for March delivery rose 0.67% from the previous close to $65.028 an ounce. This is the first time the price has surpassed the $65 mark.

During the week, global silver prices recorded an unprecedented jump, as the white metal yesterday surpassed the $60 per ounce mark in spot trading for the first time in its history, driven by a shortage of global supplies and rising industrial demand. https://economy-news.net/content.php?id=63336

Gold Is Stable, Supported By Interest Rate Cuts, While Silver Is Nearing A Record High

Economy | 12/12/2025 Mawazin News - Gold stabilized after three days of gains, supported by expectations of further monetary easing in the United States following this week's interest rate cut. Silver traded near a record high.

The precious metal remained virtually unchanged at around $4,280 an ounce, after rising 1.2% in the previous session.
Federal Reserve policymakers left the door open for further interest rate cuts next year after reducing borrowing costs on Wednesday. Swap traders are betting on two cuts in 2026, even though the US central bank is signaling only one.

A low interest rate environment supports precious metals, including gold and silver, as they do not pay interest. To further support the precious metal, the Federal Reserve will begin purchasing $40 billion a month of short-term Treasury bonds on Friday as part of its efforts to rebuild reserves in the financial system.

Gold has surged more than 60% this year, while silver prices have more than doubled, putting both metals on track for their best annual performance since 1979. These sharp gains have been fueled by increased central bank purchases and a decline in investor appetite for government bonds and currencies. According to the World Gold Council, holdings in gold-backed exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have risen in every month this year except May.

Meanwhile, silver has been supported in recent weeks by strong demand, tight supply, and imbalances in major trading positions. The white metal hit a record high of $64.3120 an ounce on Thursday.

Gold was nearly unchanged at $4,280.34 an ounce by 7:30 a.m. in Singapore. Silver slipped 0.1% to $63.5080.
Platinum and palladium also edged lower. The Bloomberg Dollar Index was steady after closing 0.3% lower in the previous session. https://www.mawazin.net/Details.aspx?jimare=271482

“Tidbits From TNT” Saturday 12-13-2025

TNT:

Tishwash: Savaya speaks of a historic moment of pride for Iraq

US President Donald Trump’s envoy to Iraq, Mark Savaya, expressed his gratitude to UN Secretary-General Tony Guterres for his role in supporting the selection of former Iraqi President Barham Salih to lead the UNHCR, stressing that this decision represents international recognition of a figure with “great vision and deep experience.”

In a post, Savaya congratulated Barham Salih on assuming his new position, describing him as an “exceptional leader” capable of making a real difference in humanitarian issues related to refugees around the world, especially since he himself experienced being a refugee in earlier stages of his life.

Tishwash: Savaya speaks of a historic moment of pride for Iraq

He added that this appointment is “a historic moment and a source of pride for Iraq and its people,” noting that the arrival of an Iraqi figure to an international position of this magnitude reflects Iraq’s growing status on the world stage.

Savaya concluded his message by saying: “Congratulations to Dr. Barham. We ask God that your leadership brings hope and dignity to millions of people in need of support and protection.” link

Tishwash: Central Bank: Regional businesses must be registered in ASICOD by the end of the year

Central Bank of Iraq

The Iraqi central bank has significantly reduced the supply of dollars and in a new decision imposed strict conditions for the payment of dollars to businessmen in the Kurdistan Region, which is described as a "political" move.

The central bank has reportedly reduced the supply of dollars by 50 percent in the past two weeks. The reduction is due to the decision to suspend the operations of four commercial banks, which had a huge impact and previously accounted for 40 percent of total dollar sales in the market.

Meanwhile, according to a new decision of the Central Bank, from December 1, 2026, any businessman in the Kurdistan Region if he is not registered in the system "Asicode", will be deprived of receiving dollars at official prices and can not import goods.

Shukri Jamil, president of the Duhok Chamber of Commerce, said that businessmen were previously asked to bring support from Baghdad, but despite the completion of measures, it is noticed that the decision is political and aims to shape the economy of the Kurdistan Region.

Shukri Jamil said that the goods of the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) companies have been detained in the port of Umm Qasr since November 3, so they call on the Kurdistan Regional Government and the Iraqi government to reach an agreement on this issue. link

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

Tishwash: Iraq welcomes the US Congress vote to repeal the authorizations for the use of military force.

The Embassy of the Republic of Iraq in Washington welcomed the vote by the US House of Representatives to repeal the 1991 and 2002 authorizations for the use of military force against Iraq and to repeal the war laws.

The embassy confirmed in a statement, a copy of which was received by Al-Furat News, that "this step strengthens the partnership between Iraq and the United States and supports the bilateral relationship on the basis of dialogue and cooperation."

The embassy also looked forward to the US Senate vote in the coming days.

On September 11, 2025, the U.S. House of Representatives voted overwhelmingly to repeal the authorizations for the use of military force related to Iraq, as part of the National Defense Authorization Act, which outlines Washington's military policies.

The House passed the bill by a vote of 231 to 196, with unusual support from some Republicans: only four Republicans voted against it, while 17 Democrats joined the Republican majority in voting for the bill as a whole.

The most significant amendment in this bill was the repeal of the two older war authorizations: the 2002 authorization used to invade Iraq and the 1991 authorization related to the Gulf War. This amendment received broad support, with 261 representatives voting in favor and 167 against, including all Democrats and 49 Republicans—nearly one-fifth of the Republican Party.

It is worth noting that the US House of Representatives had previously approved the repeal of the 2002 authorization in 2021, while the Senate passed a bill in 2023 repealing both authorizations (1991 and 2002). Their repeal now represents a significant legislative step toward restoring the balance of power between the executive and legislative branches in war-making. link

Tishwash: Sudani discusses satellite internet licenses with US company SpaceX

On Thursday, December 11, 2025, caretaker Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani discussed with a delegation from SpaceX (Starlink) the final stages of granting satellite internet licenses.

A statement from the office of Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani, a copy of which was received by Al-Jabal, said: “Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani received today, Thursday, a delegation from the American company SpaceX (Starlink), which specializes in network, information and communications technology, in the presence of the American Chargé d'Affaires to Iraq, Joshua Harris.”

According to the statement, the meeting included "discussions on the final stages of granting satellite internet licenses, including to SpaceX, and strengthening cooperation in the field of communications and services provided by the company and its coverage areas."

According to the statement, Al-Sudani pointed out that “Iraq has achieved an important shift in attracting various international companies and securing all their requirements and needs, including satellite internet systems, to sustain their work and activities,” stressing “the government’s interest and keenness to keep pace with the development of the world of communications and information technology and digital transformation through cooperation with SpaceX and its entry into the Iraqi market, which today includes many promising investment opportunities.”

Al-Sudani stressed that “work in the communications sector within Iraq has governmental priorities, foremost among them being the preservation of Iraq’s information and technological sovereignty, investing in the capabilities of young people specializing in this field, training them, and handing over the responsibility of work to them at a later time.”

The statement concluded, "For their part, the SpaceX (Starlink) delegation expressed their keenness and interest in working, providing services and cooperating in the information technology sector," stressing that "their company is ready to operate and work to provide satellite internet service within a short period, after officially obtaining a license to operate in Iraq link
