Coffee with MarkZ and Andy Schectman. 12/20/2023

Member: Good Morning Mark, Mods and everyone…..

Member: Any big news today Mark?

MZ: The big news is the article  and report we talked about last night from the IMF. Where they quite literally say that Iraq has a fantastic year ahead and much of that is due because of the passing of the exchange rate revaluation.

MZ: For those that were not with us last night- The IMF released an actual bulletin discussing how well their meetings went with Iraqi officials….they talk about all the things Iraq did right and what the world is going to be …they even mention that part of what made their economy so successful in 2024 is the exchange rate revaluation.

MZ: Now we just need to cross the finish line.

MZ: I asked an Iraqi contact in government/finance his thoughts about if the revaluation they mention was the one in Feb where the dinar went from 1562 to about 1300 dinar per one dollar. …..He said NO this is not what they are referencing. ….so this is exiting straight from the IMF itself.

MZ: Nader talked about this as well in a video from last night.

​Member:  Don't the Chinese like the number 2?   12-22 is Friday!

MZ: Now that today is the 20th…I am just waiting to hear from historic bond contacts …I be;ive the window is wide open right now for things to happen at any moment. .

MZ: It will be interesting to watch how Iraq doles out and spends all the money from their 2023 budget starting today.

Member: There is a rumor that  Iraq has to be 1 to 1 today in order to pay for the budget over next 10 days like Sudani said on TV. Hope its true

Member: Sudani already stated today and the dollar completely gone in Iraq January 1st. They have to pay budget out for retro 2023

MZ: “BRICS: China and Saudi Arabia drive global end to US dollar”  This is more news as they move forward with de-dollarization. If Saudi Arabia is on board this means OPEC is on board with no more trading in the Petrodollar. .

Member:  The economy has been manipulated for months to prevent the fiat collapse that should have happened already. There's no excuse for the delay. imo. People are suffering unnecessarily. Where are the White Hats?

Member: Is there a chance the RV could still go before Christmas?

MZ: IMO There is a  phenomenally high chance it could still go before Christmas. We do not know the exact timing but there is definitely a great chance.

Member: I wonder if Redemption center folks are working or on call this weekend?

Member: Charlie Ward sent this out, "After a recent discussion with Lloyd Brunson there are strong hints of exciting news on the horizon."

Member:  ​Is it possible that the RV carried out quietly, the economy collapses and then Nesara walked out a little more slowly?

Member: At this point anything is possible…..imo

Member: Iraq will try to keep it quiet as long as possible

Member: This is never happened before with Iraq making agreements with so many countries and meeting with the US Treasury and the IMF and announcing that they will be revaluing their currency. This may be our time.

Member: If Nesara will be initiated and all debts and derivatives eliminated…Why do we worry about bail-ins?

MZ: Bam- you get it. Bail=ins are something we would worry about about if the Klous Swab and crew ‘s reset beats us. I do not see that happening. I see us having more and more victories daily.

Membr: I am still a bit worried about getting notified to exchange

Member: I am not worried about getting contacted. If I miss the email I will get the news here along with the contact info.

Member:  Happy Birthday to all celebrating today…And Merry Christmas to us all.

Member: Safe travels today Mark…See you tonight.

Tishwash:  Al-Sudani directs that the 25th and 26th of December be an official holiday for Christians

The Prime Minister, Mr. Muhammad Shiaa Al-Sudani, directs that the 25th and 26th of this December be an official holiday for Christian citizens, on the occasion of the glorious Christmas holidays

Tishwash:  Al-Alaq: Employing information technology in state institutions will eliminate corruption

 Central Bank Governor Ali Al-Alaq said on Wednesday that purging state institutions of corruption is fundamentally linked to the use of information technology. He stressed that providing data and information at the state level maximizes state revenues.

Al-Allaq stressed in the annual international scientific conference held under the auspices of the Minister of Finance and followed by “Earth News” that purging state institutions of corruption is largely and fundamentally linked to the use of techniques and information technology to reshape the relationship between the institution, society and the individual, thus eliminating many areas that cause institutional confusion. performance, corruption operations, weakness, or delay in the various procedures related to what these institutions provide,” explaining that “employing information technology in state institutions is very necessary.”

He pointed out that “when the government structure was reconsidered years ago, two important ministries were abolished, namely the Ministry of Science and Technology and the Ministry of Environment,” explaining that “the Ministry of Environment was restored, but the abolition of the Ministry of Science and Technology contradicts the desired developments and goals in focusing on this aspect and embracing all energies that can work in this direction.”

He continued, “The companies that operate within this framework are the most profitable in the world, and we have human resources and young energies that deserve to have a role in stimulating and developing this important aspect.”

He noted that “the Central Bank is the institution that most uses and benefits from modern and digital technologies,” stressing “the necessity of stimulating and developing the development of these trends to regulate the work of the Central Bank.”  link

Tishwash:  Economic reform in the Prime Minister’s vision and governmental approach

Prime Minister Muhammad Shiaa Al-Sudani said last week while answering questions from attendees of the “Beston Talk” program on Rudaw TV that economic reform begins with financial and banking reform, stressing that the government’s economic vision is based on an accurate diagnosis of the obstacles and challenges of economic reform, which has not been achieved since 2003 due to... The banking and financial sector has not witnessed any real reform process for two decades because without a sound financial and banking sector it is not possible to build a sound national economy.

Therefore, the vision of the Prime Minister for comprehensive and radical economic reform comes in line with what was stated in more than 12 axes examining economic reform, the details of which were included in the government curriculum, which were emphasized and considered among the priorities that must be implemented.

What concerns us here is what is stated in the twelve axis (financial and banking reform) and paragraphs (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7) thereof, which clearly and accurately state that (financial and banking reform provides a real and effective basis for the advancement of the Iraqi economy and stimulating investment through restructuring and mechanizing government banks, reconsidering their work and stimulating... Private banks and empowering them to be able to support investment and development in a real way)

And that the Prime Minister’s vision focuses on the importance of the financial and banking sector so that it occupies within the financial structure of the economy a vital position in mobilizing savings and financing development through its ability to flow money between the categories of the national economy, which is the basic step for economic reform and that The measures that the Central Bank is currently taking in high coordination with the support of the government to implement its new comprehensive strategy to reform, develop and classify banks according to several axes, the most prominent of which is the completion and implementation of projects for the transformation from a cash economy to a digital economy and a cashless society and the development of national payments systems by establishing the National Payment Systems Company, which will undertake the development and operation of systems.

Payments are under the supervision of the Central Bank, launching a financial inclusion strategy, working to adhere to international standards for the global financial system, focusing on regulating foreign trade financing, opening accounts for Iraqi banks with correspondent banks, controlling foreign transfers, and opening dealings in other foreign currencies in addition to the US dollar, as well as drawing up a national lending plan to be approved.

New mechanisms for organizing the granting of loans for the development of small and medium enterprises in accordance with the Prime Minister Riyada’s initiative to employ young people and qualify them to choose their projects, relying on the banks’ own financial capabilities and attracting deposits to provide liquidity and invest them in accordance with the instructions of the Central Bank.

Directing the small and medium enterprise financing initiative towards the economic and productive sectors that have the greatest impact on contributing to development. Establishing Riyada Bank, creating a loan guarantee company, activating the work of the deposit guarantee company, and amending its internal system in a way that enhances confidence in the banking sector. Continuing the procedures and using monetary policy applications to control the exchange rate and reduce the gap between the official rate and the black market rate, which has begun to narrow towards reaching the targeted and balanced exchange rate.

Referring to the Prime Minister’s assertion that the government cannot accept that the official exchange rate be equal to the black market rate. All of this indicates that the many services provided by the banking system in developed countries have enabled these countries to achieve the progress and economic growth they have achieved. The solidity of the banking structure has become one of the necessities of building a prosperous economy that adopts modernity and sound sustainable development systems. The development of banking habits and awareness of the importance of developing banking facilities in a way that secures the building of the national savings base and develops the financial resources necessary to build the economy have become among the priorities of decision makers.

Therefore, the soundness of the banking system and the mobilization of sound decisions in the field of economic policies towards developing and modernizing banking systems ensures achieving momentum in the world of real and financial investment, which revitalizes the financial and monetary markets, leading to attracting foreign capital in search of profit, which requires the government and the central bank to take measures. It is necessary to fortify and strengthen local banking systems in a way that makes them capable of facing the challenges of transferring capital to and from abroad without causing money laundering or foreign exchange smuggling operations, and thus increasing the profitability of financial and banking institutions and enhancing the structure of the gross domestic product.

This is what the government and the Central Bank are currently active in doing. It is, in fact, a new reformist economic vision and thought to harness all capabilities and energies in order to achieve it in the next stage.  link

RV Excerpts from the Restored Republic via a GCR: Update as of Wed. 20 Dec. 2023

Compiled Wed. 20 Dec. 12:01 am EST by Judy Byington

Judy Note: Be Prepared: It’s only wise to have at least a month’s supply of food, water, cash and essential items on hand for your family and to share with others.

The Global supply chain now faced severe disruption due to shipping firms diverting away from the Red Sea.

Banks across the Globe were imploding, yet like other pertinent stories, was not being reported by the Mainstream Media. You would think it was time for a Military takeover and switch to the new Star Link Satellite System.

All Intel on the Global Currency Reset indicated that Tier4b would be notified to set appointments by Wed. 20 Dec.

The World will(allegedly)  change over to the new gold/asset-backed Global Financial System on Mon. 1 Jan. 2024. The Deep State Cabal’s Great Reset appeared to be dead in the water after the US Congress rejected it months ago.

Global Currency Reset:

Mon. 18 Dec. Patriot Rod Steel RV Update: “The IMF has released the funds to all countries. US Banks have LIVE RATES on the bank screen. We expect for this to GO officially by Wed as Iraq’s budget is to be released Wed. 20 Dec. now with 10 days to spend 80% of the money. … (Tier4b will be notified) immediately, or no later than Wed. 20 Dec. We need 10 days to get in there before the first of January (when the General Public goes).” https://youtu.be/jOrKdna_LPI?feature=shared

Mon. 18 Dec. TNT: “All three letter agencies are now saying that it has been released. Our Fed contacts said it was released to the banks late last night Sun. 17 Dec. and that the rate was now live.  No one is sure what the banks are waiting for. Several Regional Bank managers have reported having a live rate on their screen. This could possibly go to the tellers screen after banking hours tonight or in the morning Tues. 19 Dec. It should be totally released by Wed. morning 20 Dec. since Iraq is saying they will release the budget on Wednesday. The RV was scheduled last Fri. 15 Dec. That morning Iraq citizens were told by Sudani that the Dinar rate was going to change in the next couple of days. The US has released it. IMF has released it to each country so when it goes, they can start exchanging.”

Mon. 18 Dec. Wolverine: “I just talked to Marecia. Everything is looking good. We are close to releasing it. We are on the verge of it happening. Take care, guys. I love you. On Sat. 16 Dec. I received a call from a very high source. All I can say is that Christmas is coming and we are going to have a very good Christmas. I had received another call last Sun. 10 Dec. that Zurich went liquid. A lot of things are happening, especially with the Admiral. It started Fri. night 8 Dec. and it’s rolling out. Everything is now in the payment phase through authorized banks. All escrow accounts of the people who will receive have been opened.”

Mon. 18 Dec. MarkZ: A caller asked Markz where he will be “Wednesday when the notifications come out.” MarkZ replied: “Put it this way… because I think there is a great chance of that, I made certain to book a flight with Internet just so I can go Live no matter where, may be choppy but will be there. …..“We are close since Iraq is supposed to start spending the last 80% of their budget on Wed. 20 Dec. and the chatter is very loud right now about fines, interest and penalties and adjudicated settlements getting ready to be paid out possibly on Tues. 19 Dec. I’m getting updates from government sources across the World, plus my bank sources, who all agree that everything has been released and the amount of currency rates have been agreed to and has been shared with various countries. I hear more and more contacts from different nations say that they now have the “GO”. We don’t know the timing. They appear to have been releasing the countries one by one. The IQD is on Forex as a tradable currency.”

Sun. 10 Dec. Frank26: There is no more guessing. The World Bank has just told the whole world Iraq is about to raise the value of its currency. https://dinardetectives.com/frank26-1223/

Recently the IMF and Iraq met regarding Iraq’s new economic reforms that were enacted earlier in 2023. The IMF gave Iraq the green light to allow the markets to determine the Iraqi Dinar exchange rate for international trade beginning 1 Jan. 2024.

Nader From The Mid East   The United States have signed off on everything and threw the ball to the IMF.  Now everything is in the hand of the IMF.  The World Bank, Treasury, CBI, all met...This how it's going to go now - As soon as they delete all the dollars from Iraq...things going to change.

Frank26  I like the idea that from the 20th to the 25th isn't that a good time to bring forth a new exchange rate?  Why?  Because they've only used 20% of their budget all year.  That's insane...What are you waiting for?  New exchange rate.  You say you're going to use the other 80% from the 20th to the 25th? ...What did you tell the citizens of Iraq is going to happen on the 1st of January 2024?  They can't use any other currency.  What are they going to use? Rocks to buy things with?  Shoot rocks are probably more valuable than the used toilet paper that you got right now...The 20th to 25th is logical, the 1st onward is logical.

MarkZ Disclaimer: Please consider everything on this call as my opinion. People who take notes do not catch everything and its best to watch the video so that you get everything in context.  Be sure to consult a professional for any financial decisions

Member: Very good to see everyone tonight

Member: I wonder if Iraq has to revalue before Jan 1st to trade Internationally?

Member: I heard a rumor that it is started from East to West....what say you!?

MZ: The bond market pretty much died last September and has been living on some kind of Zombie system since then.

MZ: Contractors have been telling me that since Dec 6th things have moved forward and we have been watching the slow release since then.

MZ: We have had a couple of original farm claims people and original fines and penalties people receive QFS test deposits they were told of $100 or $150 to make sure everything was working well with the correct accounts. So I think this is all very interesting as we watch it all roll out.

MZ: I have also heard from some of the larger CMKX shareholders  they have also received a small deposit to “test the QFS system”  and delivery.

MZ: I believe it is very apparent that they are priming the system.

MZ: “IMF staff concludes  staff visit with Iraq”  They met with Iraq authorities in Iman Jordan on the 17th to discuss recent economic developments .  They are not worried fiscally about Iraq and things are coming along nicely.  “Quote: “Inflation has declined from its January peak and is projected to stabilize in the coming months—helped by the Central Bank of Iraq’s (CBI) tighter monetary policy, passthrough from the exchange rate revaluation,” They are telling us what they are doing.   https://www.imf.org/en/News/Articles/2023/12/18/pr23462-iraq-imf-staff-concludes-staff-visit?cid=em-COM-123-47669

Member: Will we see this before Christmas?

MZ: We don’t know- but, most of my contacts say we will…..My historic bond folks are expecting 1% of funds while a number of them think between the 20th and the 25th with the balance coming after the first of the year. . So the initial fiat 1 % with the balance coming in asset backed after Jan 1….That makes sense.

MZ: Things have gotten very interesting

MZ: Here are a couple bank stories.: From a member” I went into my local Chase bank to withdraw some cash and the teller asked me if I would wait one moment. I asked her if everything was all right with my account and she said yes. Moments later the bank manager approached me and introduced herself. She took me to her office and asked me if I still had the Vietnamese Dong that I had purchased. I told her yes….She smiled and shook my hand and said she looks forward to doing business with me very soon. “

MZ: I’m sure the teller had a notice flash on her screen telling her this customer purchased foreign currency.l…..

MZ: Another one: “I went to a big bank to make a deposit and noticed it was the floor manager waiting on me. I asked if that branch had wealth managers on site and she said yes…and no…depending on the size of the investment. I said “We are waiting for the RV to start shortly” .. She broke into a huge smile and said that I would be seen at the offsite location downtown to be taken care of.  As I was leaving she said with a huge smile-“We hope to see you soon”.

Member: What is the best time we may get notifications and know we were there?

MZ: Well back in the day…..communications from Mr.. C and the UST that they had decided the time that made the most sense was between 11 PM and 3 AM est….But, I don’t think the time of day is as important anymore. I think anytime is fair game. .

Member: Mark-Do you know who will send us an email ? UST, BOA or Wells?

MZ: I guess it depends who you bought it from. Yu may get more than one depending on where you purchased currency. But if you are worried about getting an email. Be sure to sign up for the Dinar sites like Recaps or Chronicles. My banking contacts say they will send out instructions ect….to all of these sites to share with all of you…...

MZ: If you bought your currency from a bank there is a good chance they may reach out to you.

Member: I got an email from JP Morgan Wealth Management Division. They want me to come in for an appointment to set up an account.

Member:  So far this December is sounding exactly like the last 3. Everybody convinced it’s going to happen by the end of the year. Maybe it will.

Clare:  IMF Staff Concludes Staff Visit with Iraq

December 19, 2023

 End-of-Mission press releases include statements of IMF staff teams that convey preliminary findings after a visit to a country. The views expressed in this statement are those of the IMF staff and do not necessarily represent the views of the IMF’s Executive Board.

 Economic activity is recovering, although oil production cuts are weighing on overall growth, and at the same time inflation has declined.

The large fiscal expansion in the three-year budget law poses significant risks to fiscal and external sustainability over the medium term.

Fiscal prudence and structural reforms are critical to safeguard macroeconomic stability, ensure sustainability, and achieve durable and more inclusive growth.

Washington, DC: A staff team of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) led by Jean-Guillaume Poulain met with the Iraqi authorities in Amman, Jordan during Dec 12-17 to discuss recent economic developments and outlook as well as policy plans.

At the end of the mission, Mr. Poulain issued the following statement:

“Against the background of a large fiscal expansion, non-oil GDP is expected to grow by 5 percent in 2023. Continued budget execution should help sustain strong non-oil growth in 2024. However, lower oil production, following the closure of the Iraq-Turkey pipeline and OPEC+ production cuts, will reduce overall GDP growth in 2023 and 2024. Inflation has declined from its January peak and is projected to stabilize in the coming months—helped by the Central Bank of Iraq’s (CBI) tighter monetary policy, passthrough from the exchange rate revaluation, lower international food prices, and normalization of trade finance as compliance to the new anti-money laundering/combating the financing of terrorism (AML/CFT) [GM1] framework improved.

“The three-year budget approved in June 2023 marked a shift in Iraq’s budgeting practice, envisaged to improve fiscal planning and continue important development projects over the medium term. Despite a late start of budget implementation, the fiscal balance is expected to shift from a large surplus in 2022 to a deficit in 2023. Staff projects that the deficit would widen further in 2024 reflecting the full year impact of recent measures. The large fiscal expansion, including a substantial increase in public hiring and pensions creates permanent spending that will put pressure on public finances over the medium term.

“Ensuring fiscal sustainability, in context of uncertain outlook for oil prices, requires gradually tightening the fiscal policy stance while safeguarding critical infrastructure and social spending needs. This would require mobilizing additional non-oil revenues, containing the large government wage bill, and reforming the pension system. These measures should be supported by moving toward a more targeted social safety net that better protects the vulnerable.

“The mission welcomed the government’s plans to strengthen public financial management including steps towards the establishment of the Treasury Single Account. In this context, the mission reiterated the importance of adhering to the framework for managing government guarantees.

“The CBI has appropriately tightened its monetary policy, including by increasing its policy rate and reserve requirement. The mission welcomed the progress in strengthening the domestic liquidity management framework and encouraged continued efforts to mop up excess liquidity and develop an interbank market to strengthen monetary policy transmission.

“Structural reforms to spur private sector led economic diversification and job creation remains pivotal for sustainable and inclusive growth. Priorities include creating a level playing field for the private sector through banking and electricity sector reforms, reducing distortions in the labor market, and continuing efforts to enhance governance and reduce corruption.

“The IMF staff team stands ready to support the authorities in their reform efforts and would like to thank them for candid and productive discussions during this mission.”

Frank26   [Franklin Tennessee Bank Story]   BANK STORY PERSON:  I'm a pastor south of Nashville...yesterday I thought I'm gonna do my due diligence and reach out to some of the banks in my area...The Franklin/Brentwood area south of Nashville is the richest county in the United States...The first bank was a Pinnacle Bank...the oldest bank in Nashville...I talked to the branch manager and she knew nothing...She knew zero about it...I walked over to the Wells Fargo...I said I'm curious if you guys verify and exchange foreign currency her eyes lit up.   She said, which currency have you got?  I said the Iraqi dinar.  She said, sir we do not and the reason we do not is because there have been several times Wells Fargo has got burned by bad currency...   [Post 1 of 3....stay tuned]

Frank26    [Franklin Tennessee Bank Story continued]  I thanked her for her time and I thought ok two strikes let's try Chase which is 50 yards away.  I walk into Chase in Franklin, Tennessee, asked for the branch manager...I said sir do you do anything with foreign currency?  He said yes we do.  He said which currency have you got.  I said the Iraqi dinar.  He said absolutely yes.  He was very excited about it.  We were standing right there in the middle of the lobby and he didn't try to hold back his facial expression, language or anything.  He said, yes, we would love to do business with you.  FRANK:  Did he say anything else like yeah, we know or we're in preparation, we're getting ready?  Bank Story Man:  I said, how are you aware of that.  He said, we've been waiting for this to transpire...  [Post 2 of 3....stay tuned]

Andy Schectman: Jerome Powell Falls Short of Paul Volcker

Arcadia Economics:  12-19-2023

Last week the Fed signaled that it is indeed expecting to cut rates next year, and since then, we've seen a sharp rally in the gold and silver, as the market begins to price in the inevitable.

 In some ways it's a bit shocking to see the Fed indicate it's really thinking about cutting rates with inflation still significantly above the its mandate.

Yet in another sense, it's reflective of what everyone's known, but didn't want to say, in that the Fed has long ago been backed into a corner that doesn't offer any easy exit.

So in today's show Andy Schectman of Miles Franklin talks about why Jerome Powell has fallen well short of Paul Volcker, and explains the longer-

term implications of the recent news.

CandyKisses:  Al-Taie: The electoral process went smoothly despite attempts to obstruct it

Information / Baghdad...

Security expert Aqeel Al-Taie confirmed the failure of the attempt to abort the election process through the actions of some, indicating that the flexibility of the security plan contributed to raising the percentages of participants. 

Al-Taie told Al-Maalouma that "the security plan and procedures were flexible and uncomplicated, as well as the absence of any cuts, with the availability of movement, airports and citizens' wheels."

He added that "security cordon was present near polling stations, after patrols and tight protections were deployed before the elections for polling stations."

He pointed out that "some areas of Baghdad witnessed abuses on voters by insulting, slander and obscene speech, as well as there are sound canisters thrown towards them, in addition to monitoring violations of some people promoting in exchange for money for a certain political bloc near some polling stations, but these events did not affect the general security measures and the progress of the process." Finished 25n

CandyKisses:  Parliamentary Economic: The current world budget surplus will reduce the deficit in next year's budget

Information / Baghdad.

A member of the Parliamentary Economy and Trade Committee, Yasser Al-Husseini, confirmed on Monday the contribution of the 2023 budget surplus to bridge the deficit in the 2024-2025 budget.

Al-Husseini said in an interview with the Information Agency that "the government until this moment has not funded the 2023 projects, and therefore there will be financial accumulations to fill the deficit in next year's budget."

He added that "the deficit in the budget this year, amounting to 64 trillion, will be filled from the surplus from next year," noting that the amounts and allocations set for projects have not yet been disbursed and therefore there will be a financial surplus that can be used in the coming budgets.

Parliament passed the budget six months ago after a difficult labor due to political controversy that caused disruption to the country's economic interests.

Tishwash:  UK, France to Co-Chair Iraq Economic Contact Group (IECG)

France and the United Kingdom are to co-chair the Iraq Economic Contact Group (IECG) from the start of January.

In a statement, the group added that, as friends and partners of Iraq, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the European Union, the United Kingdom, the United States, and the World Bank commit to supporting Iraq in the implementation of a comprehensive and ambitious reform agenda, paving the way to sustainable and inclusive economic development.

Statement of the Iraq Economic Contact Group of the G7, European Union and World Bank

On December 12, the Iraq Economic Contact Group (IECG) held the final meeting of 2023, co-chaired by Italy and the United States.  As friends and partners of Iraq, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the European Union, the United Kingdom, the United States, and the World Bank commit to supporting Iraq in the implementation of a comprehensive and ambitious reform agenda, paving the way to sustainable and inclusive economic development.

The IECG is eager to strengthen its engagement with the Government of Iraq (GOI) through regular dialogue at both the political and technical level.  This engagement is crucial to streamline cooperation between the two sides, identify and support common goals, and support the GOI's priority reform areas.  The IECG commends Prime Minister Mohammed Shiaa al-Sudani for appointing business and economics experts within his office and looks forward to collaborating with them.

The IECG was encouraged by Prime Minister Sudani's announcement of new economic reform initiatives throughout 2023 and the passing of a historic three-year budget that laid the foundation for implementation of the government's reform agenda.  In October, Iraq gained membership to the European Bank of Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) - a move strongly supported by the IECG as the first step to unlocking new sources of investment and enhanced cooperation with other multilateral and bilateral financial facilities.

In the past month, the government convened conferences on Public Private Partnerships (PPPs) and tax reform, including a new bank sector reform project with Rafidain Bank.  Further, the GOI recently announced the establishment of the Iraq Fund for Development (IFD) alongside the Development Road project, and the Prime Minister strengthened economic ties with regional partners.  The GOI's efforts to expand the use of digital platforms for financial transactions, with electronic payment and other e-commerce mechanisms, represent important steps to minimize the informal economy and reduce opportunities for corruption.

Looking ahead to next year, the IECG welcomes further cooperation in support of Iraq's economic and financial sector development, including Prime Minister Sudani's policies to strengthen the dinar and oversee monetary policy.  Clear communication of new dinar policies during the transition period will help avoid adverse effects on Iraqi households and businesses as well as on development cooperation projects and foreign investments in Iraq.

The IECG also stands ready to support Iraq's next steps to becoming an EBRD Country of Operations, its journey toward World Trade Organization accession, and its potential partnership with the European Investment Bank (EIB).  EIB's expertise in road, railroad, water and sanitation investments, climate action, environmental sustainability financing as well as urban transmission initiatives will accelerate key infrastructure measures and help facilitate a green transition.

The IECG urges further attention in 2024 to address the deficit and public sector wage bill, measures that would improve fiscal resilience.  Timely budget execution will be critical to the GOI's ability to sustain important infrastructure investment, particularly in expanding domestic power generation, distribution, and expansion of green energy.  Long-term sustainable economic development is contingent on a dedicated response to pressing climate and environmental challenges.  Sustained investment in water management and infrastructure is critical to counteract the debilitating impacts of climate change.

To accelerate private sector growth, the IECG encourages government action to identify and address the challenges faced by domestic and international business, including efforts to promote transparent and predictable regulations.  In this vein, we welcome further progress on the PPP, Companies, Industrial Investment, Customs, and Arbitration laws as well as timely implementation of the recommendations from the recent PPP and tax reform conferences.

On January 1, Italy and the United States proudly hand over the IECG to incoming co-chairs France and the United Kingdom.  Under their leadership, the IECG will continue to support an ambitious reform agenda, promote sustainable economic development, and stand by Iraq's side as a reliable friend and partner in 2024. link
