An Economist Explains The Possibility Of Decreasing The Dollar Exchange Rate At The Present Time
Tuesday, 5 July 2022 9:03 PM National News Center/ Baghdad The economic expert, Dr. Safwan Qusay, explained that the current time does not allow changing the dollar exchange rate and raising the value of the Iraqi dinar without taking measures to ensure the dinar maintains its value.
Qusay said in a statement followed by / the National News Center / that "the Central Bank confirmed that there is no justification for restoring the dollar exchange rate to its previous era, especially since the process of defending the value of the Iraqi dinar needs reserves that grow over time in this bank, as well as the process of rehabilitating the economy. In order to be productive and be able to defend the value of the dinar.”
He added that "Iraq does not currently have revenues in dinars other than the legal revenues approved by the government for fees, taxes and others, and when the Iraqi economy is rehabilitated so that there are revenues from the geographical location or the industrial, food and agricultural sectors, as the process of changing the shape of the economy is what will allow the value of the dinar to increase “.
And he indicated that “the increase, if it takes place, will be unreal, and Iraq may feel that this increase will not be in place, and it is better to invest the savings that the country obtains from high oil prices for strategic investment projects so that it will be a base for defending the Iraqi dinar to absorb unemployment and reduce poverty.” https://nnciraq.com/139148/
