GodsGrace2: Loving the story about the 5k notes…Tony always talked about them releasing the smaller denoms in country as something we were waiting for. I know I've been away a while but he used to talk about them releasing the smaller notes in country as being a sign

GodsGrace2:  I'm taking it as a good sign. Unprecedented demand in the area of money being given away is a good sign to me.  Seems like it's one thing for the mucketty mucks to start spending money and buying planes, but when it's passed down and the people start doing releasing what they've been holding on to, it sounds like a good thing

Pearle:  So have they been using the lower denominations?

GodsGrace2:  Pearl, one of the sentences says many customers asked for varying amounts, between $50 and $100, to be .exchanged for“fives, Are those or are they not lower denoms?

Tishwash:  What is the central bank aiming at by merging exchange companies?

 The Central Bank of Iraq aims, through the merger of exchange companies under category A and B, to strengthen the supervisory role, as the importance of the merger is highlighted by the repercussions of the presence of large numbers of exchange companies in an unregulated economic sector, and the importance of merging companies to reduce their numbers on the one hand and raise the level of their organization on the other hand.

Merger is one of the most important steps that can be taken to enhance control over exchange companies and improve their financial performance, which helps them overcome the difficulties and problems they suffer from.

From the above, companies must be classified, for the purpose of showing the efficiency of the company with all its regulatory departments, the extent of its commitment and granting it advantages over other companies.

There is an example of these privileges that the Central Bank is supposed to grant to companies committed to banking standards:

1/ Promoting the transactions submitted by the company in record time compared to the remaining companies

2/ Increasing the share of the weekly auction

3/ Directing letters of thanks and appreciation to the company

4/ Contracting companies with exchange companies Foreign and granting them part of the foreign transfers of citizens.   link
