Good Evening Dinar Recaps,

CRYPTO INDUSTRY FRUSTRATED OVER POSSIBILITY OF SEC COMMISSIONER CAROLINE CRENSHAW’S RENOMINATION

Coinbase COO Emilie Choi called Caroline Crenshaw, one of two SEC commissioners to oppose Bitcoin ETFs, 'anti-crypto.'

On Dec 11, the U.S. Senate Banking Committee will decide whether to renominate Caroline Crenshaw, a Democrat Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) commissioner. Crenshaw has always been a staunch critic of cryptocurrencies and the crypto community is not happy with the prospect of her re-election.

Crenshaw is ‘anti-crypto,’ says Coinbase COO

Crenshaw, who was sworn into her role in August 2020, was one of two SEC commissioners who opposed the approval of spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in January. In her letter dissenting from the SEC’s decision, which Crenshaw called “unsound and ahistorical,” she wrote:

“I fear that today we are setting ourselves up for tomorrow’s failure, and it will be the investors that we have a duty to protect who will ultimately pay the price.”

SEC commissioner, Jaime Lizárraga, the only other SEC commissioner who voted against Bitcoin ETFs, did not add his name to her letter.

According to James Seyffart, a Bloomberg ETF analyst, Crenshaw was even “more vehemently anti-crypto” than SEC chair Gary Gensler, who has been called “evil” himself. In fact, she served as more than “just an ally to Gensler,” Seyffart wrote in an X post earlier this week.

In a Dec. 7 X post, Coinbase president and COO Emilie Choi wrote:

“Caroline Crenshaw is anti-crypto. She even embarrassingly opposed Bitcoin ETFs. The SEC has to change.”

Given Crenshaw’s widely-known opinions against crypto, the community is frustrated with the upcoming vote on Wednesday.

Alexander Grieve, vice president of government affairs at crypto investment firm Paradigm, called it “one last “gift” for crypto” that Democrat Senate Banking Chair Sherrod Brown is “trying to ram through” before he gives up his chair.

If the Senate vote passes, Crenshaw will hold on to her position in the SEC till 2029. However, if she’s not confirmed by the Senate, president-elect Donald Trump will be free to nominate someone as replacement.

Austin Campbell, CEO of digital payments firm WSPN, wrote in an X post:

“I will remind all Democrats that Caroline Crenshaw voted that the SEC should disobey a Federal judge, break the law, and instead reject BTC ETFs after being ordered to approve them by a court.”

Trump’s SEC chair pick has received the crypto community’s approval

Earlier this week, Trump appointed Paul Atkins, a former SEC commissioner known for being pro-crypto, to be the next SEC chief. The crypto industry welcomed the news with open arms.

Atkins, who served as a Republican SEC commissioner from 2002 to 2008, is expected to take a much more lenient approach to regulating crypto than Gensler. Atkins is known for his advocacy of free-market principles and investor protection and his focus on clarifying complex financial markets.

Atkins’ nomination. is “sorely needed and cannot come a day too soon,” Coinbase chief legal officer Paul Grewal said in an X post.

BRICS NEWS: BRICS & US MAY BE SET TO RACE FOR BITCOIN SUPREMACY IN 2025

With the asset class gaining significant attention over the course of the year, both BRICS and the US could be set to race for Bitcoin supremacy in 2025. Indeed, the economic alliance has discussed its interest in integrating the leading asset. Moreover, with the return of Donald Trump to the White House, the United States is looking to emerge as a global leader.

In a recent interview, Eric Trump reiterated these hopes. He explained the path that the US has toward becoming a cryptocurrency superpower. 

Yet, the incoming presidential administration is certainly not alone in those aspirations. His position regarding BTC has mirrored those that Russian President Vladimir Putin has shared in recent weeks.

BRICS & US Face Off in Bitcoin Race: Who Will Become Global Leader?

Bitcoin is certainly having its moment this year. The token is leading an emerging asset class, as it reached a six-figure price for the first time in history last month. Moreover, it became the first crypto-based ETF in the United States, opening the door to increased institutional investment and interest.

Amid its rise, all eyes are on exposure. Businesses are looking into the acquisition of crypto, but so too are countries. With no established global leader, both BRICS and the US could be set to engage in a race for Bitcoin supremacy in 2025.

Speaking to CNBC, Eric Trump noted that “sensible” regulation may be the only thing standing between the United States and a position as a cryptocurrency superpower. Moreover, he noted President-elect Donald Trump has all intentions to “make America the crypto capital of the world.”

Well, they are certainly not the only thing. With Russia loosening its ban on cryptocurrency earlier this year, BRICS may be looking to increase adoption. Specifically, they have sought to use the asset class in trade and have noted belief in its potential.

As the country has just voted to classify crypto as property, Putin has discussed the leading asset. When talking about foreign exchange reserves, the president questioned their necessity if they could be confiscated for political purposes. Specifically, Putin seemed to be alluding to Western sanctions that froze $300 billion in Russian reserves.

But that isn’t the same with Bitcoin. “Who can prohibit it? No one,” he said about the token. That seems to indicate that both BRICS and the US are set to explore the asset class in greater measures this year. That could have them on a collision course for status, with Bitcoin only gaining in the process.

You Can Make Drastic Cuts, But the U.S. Still Faces This One Huge Problem

You Can Make Drastic Cuts, But the U.S. Still Faces This One Huge Problem

Daniela Cambone:  12-9-2024

"The snowball on the debt through the interest rates and the interest cost on the national debt is growing so fast that even drastic measures won't make it disappear," warns Joseph Brown, host of Heresy Financial.

In this discussion, he delves into the pressing debt issues facing the U.S. and explains why owning tangible assets like gold is imperative as a hedge against the devaluation of fiat currencies.

Brown also highlights the success of Javier Milei's reforms in Argentina, emphasizing how reducing government size and slashing spending curbed inflation and sparked economic improvement: "What Argentina shows us is that by slashing government spending and deregulating, you free up resources, and the economy can start to boom again."

Bitcoin hits record high

Bitcoin crossed the $100,000 mark for the first time on December 5.

The cryptocurrency's six-week winning streak is the longest since the cryptocurrency's wild rallies of 2021

Bitcoin has been hit by volatility a day after the currency hit a historic high of $100,000.

The volatility briefly sent the largest digital asset down to around $92,000, a drop that sparked some caution.

A “sustainable and decisive” push past $100,000 may require more positive catalysts to emerge, David Lawant, head of research at major crypto broker FalconX, wrote in a note.

Good Afternoon Dinar Recaps,

IRAN MOVES TO REGULATE CRYPTO INSTEAD OF IMPOSING LIMITS: REPORT

Iran’s finance minister said the country’s government plans to regulate cryptocurrencies instead of limiting their usage.

The Iranian government is looking to embrace crypto assets by adding more regulations instead of outright restrictions, its Minister of Economic Affairs and Finance Abdolnaser Hemmati said.

According to a report from Iran’s state-run news agency Nour News, Hemmati said during a national event on Saturday that the government aims to eliminate the negative impacts of cryptocurrency on the economy, and leverage its positive effects. The minister added that digital money falls under the jurisdiction of the Iranian central bank.

Hemmati said he hopes to see cryptocurrencies used to boost youth employment in Iran, help counter U.S. sanctions and align the country’s activities with the global economy.

On the same day as Hemmati’s speech, the Central Bank of Iran published a new document that summarized its arrangement for upcoming policies on cryptocurrencies, Nour News reported. The upcoming policies aim to support crypto traders to comply with local tax and anti-money laundering laws, according to the report.

Iranian investors currently hold an estimated $30 billion to $50 billion worth of crypto assets, the report said, citing economist Mohammad Sadegh Alhosseini. This is roughly equivalent to a third of the entire gold market in the country, according to the expert.

The announcement from the Iranian government comes as U.S. President-elect Donald Trump builds anticipation for a positive regulatory environment for cryptocurrencies.

Since his reelection last month, Trump has appointed several pro-crypto candidates to spearhead various efforts during his upcoming term, recently naming long-time crypto supporter Paul Atkins to head the Securities and Exchange Commission.

CZECH REPUBLIC IS NOW CRYPTO-FRIENDLY! HERE’S WHAT CHANGED

The Czech Republic has introduced new crypto-friendly laws, making it easier for crypto businesses to operate in the country.

These laws include easier access to bank accounts for crypto businesses and a three-year tax exemption on crypto investments.

These reforms aim to attract more crypto businesses to the Czech Republic and prevent them from moving to other countries.

The Czech Republic has made the news headlines with bold new crypto regulations aimed at transforming the sector. These changes address long-standing challenges for crypto businesses and could make the country a hotspot for digital asset innovation.

Crypto Firms Finally Get a Break

Crypto businesses in the Czech Republic have long struggled to open bank accounts due to skepticism from financial institutions. Banks, wary of crypto’s volatility, often denied these businesses basic banking services, making operations incredibly challenging.

That’s about to change. The new reforms will make it easier for crypto companies to access banking services, removing a major barrier to growth. This shift could pave the way for smoother operations and attract more businesses to the Czech market.

A Tax Break to Boost Investments

But wait, there’s more. A three-year tax exemption for crypto investments has also been introduced. This means that profits from crypto will be treated just like profits from stocks. So, crypto businesses can breathe a little easier, knowing they’re now on the same playing field as more traditional investments. It’s a big win, and it’s meant to make the Czech market way more attractive to investors—both local and international.

Why Act Now? The Clock’s Ticking

Deputy Speaker Jan Skopeček explained the need for swift action, emphasizing that the government had to act now to retain crypto businesses. Without these changes, many companies could relocate to countries with more favorable crypto laws, leading to economic losses.

The urgency also ties to the European Union’s upcoming Markets in Crypto Assets (MiCA) regulation. While MiCA aims to harmonize crypto rules across the EU, its rollout has caused uncertainty. Many companies are still awaiting approvals or navigating compliance challenges, and some have already left Europe or modified their operations to align with the evolving rules.

The Road Ahead Is Not Easy

These reforms show the Czech Republic’s determination to stay ahead in the digital revolution. By easing banking access and offering tax incentives, the country is positioning itself as a more attractive hub for crypto firms.

However, challenges remain.  While the reforms are promising, businesses may still encounter unexpected hurdles as the new policies are implemented. The coming months will reveal whether the Czech Republic can truly establish itself as a crypto-friendly destination.

Are European Central Banks Secretly Moving Toward a Gold Standard?

Are European Central Banks Secretly Moving Toward a Gold Standard?

APMEX:  12-8-2024

Gold has been an integral part of Europe’s financial landscape for centuries, underpinning economies and serving as a symbol of wealth and stability. From the era of the gold standard to contemporary monetary policies, gold has consistently captured the interest of economists and investors alike.

Recently, a noteworthy trend has emerged, prompting renewed speculation about gold’s role in the region’s financial future: European central banks appear to be targeting gold reserves equal to 4% of their GDP. This article explores the implications of this shift, the motivations behind it, and its potential impact on investors and the global economy.

Historically, gold has been the bedrock of monetary systems, particularly during the gold standard era, where currencies were directly tied to gold reserves.

While the abandonment of the gold standard allowed for more flexible monetary policies, the importance of gold as a safe-haven asset has never diminished. In recent years, central banks, particularly in Europe, have begun to reconsider their gold holdings as part of their broader monetary strategy.

The focus on achieving gold reserves equivalent to 4% of GDP is not merely a coincidence; it is rooted in various geopolitical and economic factors. Some analysts speculate that European nations might be preparing for a strategic pivot back to a gold-backed currency.

This theory gained traction following statements from financial leaders, including Poland’s former Minister of Finance, who suggested that increasing gold reserves could bolster economic sovereignty amid an increasingly unpredictable global economy.

Countries like France, Italy, and the Netherlands have shown a marked increase in their gold reserves and have reportedly started to view gold as a strategic asset for future financial stability. The reasoning is clear: in a world fraught with economic volatility and inflationary pressures, gold offers a hedge against currency devaluation and inflation, acting as a safeguard for national wealth.

The recent spikes in inflation rates across Europe, exacerbated by supply chain disruptions and geopolitical tensions, have led many central banks to re-evaluate their asset allocations. In an environment where fiat currencies face the threat of devaluation, gold emerges as a reliable store of value. Unlike fiat currencies, which can be printed at will, gold’s limited supply makes it an attractive hedge against inflation.

The push to maintain gold reserves at around 4% of GDP could be seen as a proactive step to ensure that European economies remain resilient against potential economic shocks. By diversifying their reserves and increasing exposure to gold, central banks aim to foster greater financial security and stability.

The shift towards increasing gold reserves by European central banks signals a potential strategic pivot in financial policy—either as a preparation for a hypothetical return to a gold-backed currency or as a prudent hedge against inflation.

Whichever the case may be, this trend demands attention from both policymakers and investors. As Europe navigates an increasingly complex economic landscape, gold once again finds itself at the forefront of financial strategy, reminding us of its enduring legacy as a symbol of stability and security in an ever-changing world.

Investors would do well to watch these developments closely, as they could shape investment strategies and economic policies for years to come.

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

RIPPLE CEO ON 60 MINUTES: GARLINGHOUSE OPENS UP ON $150 MILLION SEC FIGHT, CRYPTO WAR AND MORE

Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse appeared in an interview on 60 Minutes, airing on December 8, 2024, where he discussed the company’s ongoing legal fight with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

Garlinghouse criticized the SEC’s approach, stating that it was a key reason why Ripple and two other companies formed the industry super PAC, FairShake, to fight back against what he described as a “war on crypto.” He suggested that FairShake might not have existed if the SEC had a different chairman than Gary Gensler.

When an SEC spokesperson said that the amount spent by the crypto industry on legal defense is minimal compared to the losses investors have faced due to frauds and market failures, Garlinghouse revealed Ripple’s financial contributions, revealing that the company has spent over $150 million fighting the SEC’s stance on XRP.

He said that Ripple argues XRP should not be treated like a stock and be subject to the same registration and disclosure requirements. Garlinghouse stressed that Ripple is not seeking to be deregulated but instead asking for clear regulations from Congress to address the unique nature of digital assets.

“I went to Harvard Business School. I think I’m reasonably intelligent about something like, “What is a security?” So never once had I considered the possibility– that, “Okay, maybe XRP’s a security. We haven’t been asking to be deregulated. We’ve been asking to be regulated. So we have been saying, “Hey, look, just give us clear rules of the road,” he said.

XRP Price Reacts:

XRP, Ripple’s cryptocurrency, is currently experiencing a surge, approaching the $2.60 mark. At the time of writing, it was trading at $2.55, a 4.5% increase. Investors are optimistic about the future of the crypto industry, especially under a potential Trump presidency, as Ripple’s blockchain-based payment system continues to gain attention.

Previously, XRP’s price saw a boost following speculation about a possible meeting between Garlinghouse and President-elect Trump, as well as news about SEC Chairman Gary Gensler’s resignation.

HONG KONG TO INTRODUCE STABLECOIN FRAMEWORK

Hong Kong is establishing a bill that outlines a detailed framework for stablecoin issuers and marketers.

Under the proposed framework, stablecoin issuers and marketers must secure licenses from the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA). 

The rule applies to all stablecoins, including those pegged to the Hong Kong dollar, while issuers are required to maintain reserve assets in local banks. Foreign custody might also be allowed by HKMA under specific conditions.

New compliance measures will be implemented, such as a minimum paid-up capital requirement of HK$25 million, as well as proof of robust financial health, sufficient liquidity, and risk management frameworks. Misrepresentation or false promotion of stablecoins is explicitly prohibited.

HKMA has also further expanded its authority to oversee, investigate, and enforce compliance.

The Stablecoins Bill will be introduced into the Legislative Council for a first reading on December 18.

“The legislative proposal is essential for Hong Kong in fulfilling our obligations as a member of the Financial Stability Board,” Christopher Hui Ching-yu, Secretary for Financial Services and the Treasury, said in a statement.

“This risk-based proposal aims to promote a robust regulatory environment, which is in line with Hong Kong’s approach to virtual-asset development.”

Hong Kong's bill positions it as an early mover alongside the EU and Japan. In July, Circle, the issuer of the USD Coin (USDC) and Euro Coin (EURC) stablecoins became the first global stablecoin issuer to achieve compliance with the European Union's Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulatory framework.

In June, the Japanese parliament enacted a law recognizing stablecoins as a form of digital currency. According to the legislation, stablecoins must be tied to the yen and ensure holders can redeem each token at its full face value.

Hong Kong has made significant strides in an attempt to establish itself as a crypto-friendly regional hub. Just last month, Hong Kong proposed waiving crypto tax for wealthy individuals in an attempt to strengthen its position as a leading regional crypto hub.

In a 20-page proposal, the Hong Kong government said the tax exemption would apply to private equity funds, hedge funds, and the investment vehicles of wealthy individuals on cryptocurrency gains, private credit investments, and other asset classes.

BRICS NEWS:  THE US DOLLAR’S CLOUT IS DECREASING GLOBALLY, SAYS BRICS

BRICS member Russia has commented on the recent 100% tariff threats issued by President-elect Donald Trump for cutting ties with the US dollar. Russian President Vladimir Putin spoke about the threats by poking fun at the American economy and its dwindling power. The clout that the US carried a few decades ago is no longer in existence as developing countries have come far ahead in steering their economy to prosperity.

While their economy is becoming prosperous, BRICS is focusing on boosting their local currency and not the US dollar. The bloc is determined to use local currencies first and keep the US dollar in the backseat of the global economy.

.

BRICS: The U.S. Dollar’s Global Influence Is Decreasing

BRICS leader and Russian President Putin explained that after Trump’s presidency, American leaders have done a great deal to undermine the US dollar. The sanctions and weaponization of the USD led to emerging economies ganging up against the White House. “The US dollar’s clout is decreasing globally,” said Putin.

He also said that America’s share in the global economy is shrinking while BRICS is rising. “Given that the US share in the global economy is shrinking, the dollar’s influence on global economic processes is also falling. And as this happens, new tools come to the fore,” he said.

“It’s been four years since the [US] President-elect was in the White House. During this time, the economy has undergone many changes, both globally and in America.

His successors, his political opponents, have done a great deal to undermine the fundamental role of the dollar as a global reserve currency,” Putin summed it up. It now needs to be seen how BRICS will counter Trump’s threat of reducing dependency on the US dollar.

US Admits Collapse of the Dollar as BRICS Introduce New Finance

US Admits Collapse of the Dollar as BRICS Introduce New Finance

Geopolitical Analyst:  12-8-2024

In recent years, the landscape of international finance has been undergoing significant transformation, moving away from traditional systems and exploring innovative alternatives. One of the most groundbreaking initiatives emerging from this shift is BRICS Pay, a payment platform that operates on a decentralized star topology, leveraging dispersed networks to communicate payment information and liquidity.

This novel approach not only enhances the speed and efficiency of payments but also fortifies financial resilience against unilateral actions that can disrupt global economic stability.

BRICS Pay stands out as a promising alternative to SWIFT, seeking to mitigate potential sanctions and currency volatility that have increasingly characterized the global financial arena. By adopting a decentralized framework, BRICS Pay offers rapid deployment and scalability, making it a highly adaptive solution for the member countries of the BRICS alliance—Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa. The increased focus on inclusivity and transparency aims to foster deeper economic collaboration among BRICS nations and their global partners, ultimately enhancing collective economic power in an increasingly multipolar world.

As of the second quarter of 2024, BRICS countries had significantly bolstered their gold reserves, now totaling approximately 6,200 tons, which accounts for 21.4% of the world’s total reserves. This strategic buildup reflects a broader tendency among countries to diversify from the US dollar and safeguard their economies against external shocks and sanctions.

Russia leads the pack with 2,340 tons (8.1% of global reserves), followed closely by China at 2,260 tons (7.8%). Brazil’s gold reserves have increased nearly threefold, showcasing a successful initiative to strengthen financial defenses in the face of growing global uncertainty.

Nations are increasingly turning away from their dependence on the US dollar in international trade and finance—a process known as de-dollarization. This paradigm shift is driven by various factors, including the desire for economic autonomy, stability, and resilience against US economic sanctions. The dominance of the dollar in global transactions often subjects countries to the vagaries of US monetary policy, which can lead to significant economic instability.

By diversifying their reserves, central banks aim to dispel risk linked to US financial systems and foster greater monetary independence.

Key players like China and Russia are taking significant strides to undermine US economic control by enhancing the use of their respective currencies in international commerce. These nations are establishing regional trade agreements that facilitate local currency transactions, thereby reducing reliance on the dollar.

For instance, a recent agreement between China and Brazil allows for trade in their own currencies, simplifying transactions and minimizing conversion costs.

The movement towards a decentralized payment system and the accumulation of gold reserves are emblematic of the BRICS nations’ commitment to creating a more robust and independent financial architecture. This strategic direction aims not only to cushion the economies of member nations from external pressures but also to pave the way for a multipolar global financial system.

As emerging economies gain traction on the world stage, leveraging their own currencies to bolster financial sovereignty represents a significant shift in international trade dynamics. The rise of BRICS Pay, coupled with nations’ efforts to diversify away from the US dollar, demonstrates a collective resolve to reshape global economic relations and challenge the historical dominance of Western financial institutions.

The introduction of BRICS Pay and the strategic increase in gold reserves signal a pivotal moment in the evolution of global finance. By championing decentralized systems and reducing reliance on the dollar, BRICS nations are taking measured steps towards economic independence, stability, and security.

The aim is clear: to strengthen financial autonomy against geopolitical risks while promoting an inclusive framework conducive to collaboration among emerging markets. As the world moves forward, the success of these initiatives will be closely watched as a potential blueprint for future economic cooperation and resilience on the global stage.

For The Second Week In A Row, Oil Prices Record A Decline Amid Abundant Supplies

Energy sw23Economy News - Follow-up Oil prices fell more than 1% on Friday, extending their weekly losses as analysts forecast a supply surplus next year due to weak demand despite OPEC+'s decision to delay production increases and extend deep production cuts until the end of 2026.

Brent crude futures fell 97 cents, or 1.4%, to $71.12 a barrel. U.S. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude futures fell $1.10, or 1.6%, to $67.20 a barrel.

Over the course of the week, Brent lost more than 2.5% and WTI fell 1.2%, with prices continuing to decline for the second week in a row.

Prices also fell as the number of oil and gas rigs operating in the United States rose this week, indicating higher production from the world's largest crude oil producer.

OPEC+ on Thursday postponed the start of increasing oil production by three months until April 2025, and extended the period until all cuts are removed by a year to the end of 2026.

The alliance,-` which pumps about half of the world's crude oil production, had planned to start reducing production cuts since October 2020, but slowing global demand, especially in China, and rising production from outside the group, in addition to other factors, prompted the alliance to postpone those plans more than once.

Brent crude traded in a narrow range of $70 to $75 a barrel last month, amid assessments of signs of weak demand in China and rising geopolitical risks in the Middle East.162 views  12/07/2024 - https://economy-news.net/content.php?id=50612

 Rafidain Bank Restructuring Program.. Justifications And Requirements

Dr. Haitham Hamid Mutlaq Al Mansour

After the Prime Minister stressed during his meeting with representatives of Ernst & Young the importance of developing the work of the government banking sector to enhance the confidence of citizens and local and foreign investors in the government banking sector in particular and the economy in general, the restructuring of Rafidain Bank is the first step towards economic reforms in the banking sector towards restructuring Iraqi government banks such as Rashid, Agricultural and Industrial, in an effort to make them play a financial role that stimulates growth and stability.

Rafidain Bank has witnessed accumulated internal problems inherited from the previous regime and subsequent governments after the change, manifested around banking, credit and administrative policies that have undermined the bank’s credit capacity and limited its banking stability and operational and financial efficiency, as Rafidain Bank still suffers from many fundamental problems at the core of banking work, namely:

The balance sheet of Rafidain Bank suffers from debts owed by it as a result of issuing letters of guarantee and confirming credits in favor of government departments and companies, which, along with the accumulated interest, have exceeded their natural limits.

The bank's credit rating has decreased.

Limited ability to keep up with developments in the banking industry.

The decline in the bank’s ability to meet its obligations according to profitability indicators, capital adequacy indicators, the ratio of equity to total assets and the ratio of equity to total deposits, which indicates the weakness of the bank’s activity in meeting its credit obligations.

Rigidity of banking legislation and failure to build policies for developing banking services through advanced banking technologies.

Hence, it is expected that the restructuring will improve its performance in a way that will rehabilitate it to be able to increase its efficiency in managing its balance sheet and improve its ability to achieve profitability indicators, capital adequacy and resource employment indicators.

By redesigning the bank's organizational structure, creating new departments and merging existing ones with new ones, the bank's tools and objectives can be developed with the aim of improving the performance of the bank's structure in the infrastructure of organization and supervision, solvency and liquidity rules, its lending policy and formulating its relations with other banks on the one hand and government units and others on the other hand.

Therefore, it is possible, on a theoretical level, after the restructuring process, that the bank’s performance will improve and its productivity will increase in the short and long term, and its financial and operational efficiency will be raised, as the cost of banking operations will be reduced and the process of participation in decision-making will move towards what is consistent with banking decentralization. It is expected that the new structure will aim to avoid credit bankruptcy by limiting the accumulation of ineffective balances and avoiding a credit crisis.

But in reality, we see that the restructuring process faces several challenges, the most important of which are the difficulty of attracting and attracting the required sufficient capital, low savings rates, weak capital market, high cost of modern technology and developing related systems, and high cost of training employees in the banking sector.

Therefore, the restructuring program should aim to secure two strategic requirements:

The first requirement: It revolves around the goal of restructuring the operating side with the aim of achieving its financial stability. The goal of restructuring the financial side in a way that restores the bank’s ability to comply with the minimum capital adequacy and other hedging requirements.

The second requirement: It includes two objectives. The first is concerned with restructuring the bank according to an accurate and clear plan for the short, medium and long term in the institutional and operational aspects, in a way that ensures the bank’s harmony with market conditions and customer service and in accordance with the hedging requirements contained in the Banking Law and the Central Bank of Iraq Law, and the requirements of compliance and competition.

As for the second, it is concerned with amending the laws, regulations and instructions that regulate the work of Iraqi banks in a way that qualifies them to work in light of modern banking standards and indicators to keep pace with market requirements and enhance the prospects and requirements of growth and stability in a way that serves the banking reform process  12/07/2024 - https://economy-news.net/content.php?id=50614
