The Central Bank of Iraq has concluded about two years since the start of tight control over the dollar through the electronic platform that was supposed to be a filter gate and a guardian eye for the green currency after years of piracy operations through innovative means through which the dollar leaked out of Iraq.
 
Currency “washing” window... 20 years and the Central Bank is an intermediary for “launderers” 

For about 20 years, the Central Bank turned into an intermediary between the source of dollar the US on the one hand, and the money launderers on the other hand... and  with forged bills and fictitious travelers, the dollar pirates were able to leak between 350 and 500 billion dollars over two decades, but,
 
in a moment of sudden awakening... it was discovered Everyone finally realizes that robbery operations, money laundering scandals , smuggling, and financing of suspicious countries and facilities are taking place with direct or indirect contributions from... The Central Bank of Iraq and several banks, whether with his work or without his knowledge.
 
75% of sales are “suspicious”... The electronic platform reduced sales from 5 to 1 billion dollars per month
 
The electronic platform began to be implemented in early 2023, but the actual restriction on the dollar began in November 2022, which led to a resounding decline from a monthly average of 4 to 5 billion dollars, to only about one billion dollars per month, which means that about 75% of dollar sales were unsuccessful. In the transparency test.
 
Sales returned to about $6 billion per month after 8 months
 
After that, sales returned to rise in mid-2023, recovering to their monthly average between 5 and 6 billion dollars, which the Central Bank interpreted as coming after the banks participating in the auction were able to improve their performance and provide sufficient evidence about the final fate and the legitimate recipient of these dollars.
 
Signs of “suspicious sales” return.. Central dollar arrives at “banned” banks
 
Two years of long testing, but the lesson seems to have not been understood well...
 
It seems that the process of selling the dollar has returned to the old days and has abandoned its new, “straight” religion.
 
According to members of the Iraqi Parliament, the Central Bank has sold quantities of dollars to banks prohibited from obtaining It is supposed to
 
banks Iraq's ...half of them are banned from the dollar, and 25% of them take over the auction
 
has Iraq more than 60 banks, half of which are prohibited from dealing in dollars, and
 
out of about 30 remaining banks, only between 12 and 16 banks participate in the currency auction, as
 
these banks control the currency auction and its external transfers.

Al-Sudani considered selling more than $200 million a day “irrational” and not suited to the market’s needs
 
Not only the MPs’ statements, but the numbers themselves raise doubts and doubts.
 
At the beginning of 2023, Prime Minister Muhammad al-Shia’ al-Sudani considered the previous sales of the dollar, which amounted to between 200 and 300 million dollars per day, to be exaggerated numbers, and not commensurate with the volume of supposed imports. After sales decreased to Only 50 million dollars a day.
 
Al-Sudani concluded that the market does not show the disappearance of some goods or confusion in trade, which proves that the previous amounts of sales are illogical.
 
300 million dollars a day...sales return to their “suspicious” level
 
But... after less than one year, how much are dollar sales today?... Nothing new...
 
Sales have returned to the levels that Al-Sudani himself criticized, as dollar sales currently touch $300 million per day, even though imports in the market do not show a significant change. About the previous...what happened?
 
$8.1 billion.. The Central Bank breaks a sales record in October 2024  
 
Perhaps no one knows exactly what is happening... except that the Central Bank has begun to break records in its monthly sales of the dollar.
 
Last October, the Central Bank broke a record in dollar sales amounting to more than 8 billion dollars, a number it had never recorded before.
 
In general, the year 2024 was the year of breaking records in dollar sales.
 
In some months, sales reached more than 7 billion dollars, after the normal average sales in the past two years were at best. It does not exceed $6 billion per month.
 
What the Central Bank sold in 2023 in dollars, it achieved in just 9 months in 2024.
 
In conclusion, in 2023 the Central Bank sold about 55 billion dollars, while in 2024 and until October, sales amounted to more than 65 billion dollars, and with greater scrutiny,
 
what the Central Bank sold during the entirety of 2023, it sold within only 9 months in 2024.
