Al-Alaq added, "These packages contributed to organizing a large part of the trade process in Iraq through the entry of various sectors into the official channels of transfer, and mitigated the fluctuations in exchange rates, which at the beginning of the launch of the platform in the market reached approximately 160 thousand dinars per dollar." ".

He stressed, "There is a significant improvement in the work of the trade financing platform and the cash payment platform, and that proceeding in this framework will contribute to a significant decrease in the exchange rate in the coming days."

Regarding plans to raise financial reserves and gold in the central bank, Al-Alaq said, "The two most important factors that determine the accumulation and depletion of foreign reserves are external, as the accumulation of reserves is mainly linked to the amount of oil exports and the price of a barrel, while the depletion of reserves takes place through importing goods and services as well as external transfers." ", stressing that "under normal circumstances, this bank aims to build a sustainable level of foreign reserves while ensuring high liquidity and relatively good returns."

He continued, "With regard to gold, this bank places increasing its holdings of gold on a high level of importance, and by the end of this year, this bank aims to increase its holdings by at least the equivalent of $500 million."

 Regarding the housing loan initiative, Al-Alaq stated that “housing loans did not stop, as the circular of this bank No. 6/5/988 on 4/27/2023 in paragraph (5) of it indicated the continuation of financing applications submitted to the Real Estate Bank and the Housing Fund within the allocated allocation To them, it is derived after that by reallocating 50% of the total loan installments previously granted, whose total loans financed by the Central Bank through its initiative amount to more than 10 trillion dinars.  LINK

ButchB:  The more I read the more I realize how intricate this process of the RI is

With the information coming out, and the plays that are being made, you’d have to be blind and deaf. Not to realize the R I  is here.

I remember all the times I thought this has to be it but now I sit and reflect how ignorant I have been in thinking that the RI/RV could have possibly taken place before this weekend

With all of the things that they have accomplished in this past week, alone, supersedes everything that they have accomplished for the past 20 years think about that a minute ONE WEEKS TIME HAS ACCOMPLISHED MORE THAN THE PAST 20 YEARS!

this is in my opinion, of course and I feel that everyone in this family would benefit from reading the entire article that is presented to you and don’t just read the headlines
For it is the details that it is driving this RI in my opinion

So if you are having any doubts about us coming to the end of this road, maybe you should look in the rearview mirror and see how things used to be and compare them to how they are now so again, I would reiterate ,IMO , THEY HAVE ACCOMPLISHED MORE IN THE PAST WEEK THAN THEY HAVE IN THE PAST 20 YEARS!
