Governmental Banks Between Reform And Restructuring

Monday 10 January 2022  267  Mohamed Sharif Abu Maysam

The concept of structuring in the banking sector includes measures that include developing work tools through automating banking operations, developing the skills of employees, and raising the level of the capital of these banks, towards reducing slack rings in performance, so that those banks are qualified to compete with foreign banks that are expected to open It has branches in the trading arena local.

While the concept of reform in the government banking sector, which is dependent on the government’s orientation in the budget implementation instructions regarding its monopoly on about 75% of the trading arena, is mixed with the concepts of structuring and paving the way for privatization in awareness. Administrative.

And often this confusion employs a context in the official discourse, so the intention appears clear as in Article I - A- of the white paper on the banking sector, towards assigning the responsibility of the Iraqi economy file to the private banking sector, as stated in the text of the article “Reform government banks towards working with commercial standards.” , and reduce its dominance over the banking sector and give way to private banks to ensure the development of the sector and take its role as a lever for the Iraqi economy and end the role of government banks as an arm for financing government spending.

This explains the current procedures in some government banks, as the reform process that is intended to restructure seemed more clear to embody what was stated in Article 4 - A - related to “structuring self-financed public companies,” which stipulates “legislating a law to restructure public companies, Transforming them into private companies and subsidiary companies, and regulating their establishment, operation, management, liquidation and bankruptcy in line with what is applied to private sector companies.”

This means that the structuring or reform of government banks has become identifiable with the stage of preparation for the privatization of these financial institutions, with the aim of removing them from the trading arena as public companies, in light of the procedures and steps followed by the relevant authorities regarding what is called “reform of government banks.”

The matter seems clearer in the specialized banks, as some of them were taken out of the context of the goal for which they were established and turned into commercial banks after being exhausted by the data of the past eighteen years. Economic freedoms, guarantee and property rights for foreign capital in macroeconomic management, and therefore it is important to activate the role of alternative funds for government banks, specifically specialized ones.   LINK
