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: good Morning Mark, Mods and Members!!!

Member: Please Lord let today be THE DAY!

Member: Mark How much of the bonds need to be processed before we go for 4B appointments?

MZ: I was always told somewhere between 30%- 40% would need to be processed before they pull that trigger

MZ: On the bond side I know some folks with big meetings today. We will see if they do indeed get their funding. We are seeing great movement and daily updates of great progress this week and last. The question is : When do we reach the crucial mark before they release the currencies???

Member: I wonder how many layers are there between your T3 guys and T4?

MZ: I was always told we would get our announcements within a few days of hitting the 30-40 % . I think we are approaching that threshold now.

Member: Bo Polny showed an interesting financial chart from 1929 and this year it looks exactly the same

MZ: We are in a depression cycle similar to 1928….Without a reset – this is scary. They are sure talking a lot about a reset……I mentioned this last night but Jim Rickards ( a economist) just said that $157 Trillion in a sovereign fund for the US would unleash prosperity in the US like nothing we have ever seen before. I think this is interesting timing.

Member: Franks bank contact bluntly said new currency at the CBI!!!

Member: Frank26's bank contact, Aki, told Walking Stick yesterday that the lower notes are in the CBI.

MZ: I am hearing those stories too…including cut sheets. But I have not seen any in circulation yet. But I believe they are printed and ready.

Member: BREAKING: The Abu Dabi (UAE) securities exchange ( ADX) signed an agreement with the Iraqi stock exchange and to join the Tabadul platform

MZ: “Parliamentary finance rules out adjusting the price of a barrel of oil”  right now there are mechanisms in the budget to adjust the price of oil down to $60 a barrel. There is no need to panic.

Member: A golf buddy works in Iraq. He was back this week and said the Dollar is illegal there now. So that was confirmed from someone that works there

MZ: “Americans to extend their stay in Iraq for another 3 years” With Isis possibly gaining ground in Syria….Iraq and the US sat down to extend security guarantees. This is separate for the UN missions.

Member: If you do the math, gold will need to be$10k/ounce to cover the paper dollars in circulation

Member: Mark, what do you think of the rumor from Iraq stating they’re looking at changing the rate to $1.32?

MZ: I have never seen the rate of $1.32. Don’t remember seeing Iraq saying that.

Member: Bruce said the dong rate will be higher than we think

MZ: I keep being told that as well.

Member: I heard that Vietnam is talking with the US Treasury ad setting everything up

MZ: That is exactly what they are doing. Vietnam is right now in open talks with our Treasury. The US says it’s time to stop manipulating your currency and raise it.

MZ: “ Digital currency and the dollar”  BRICS has been trying to come up with a currency to stop using the USD. Trump is pushing them to not abandon the dollar. What would other options be? How about a gold backed digital currency…this would solve all the problems.  They are also talking about a future system they are already working on. The Amberge system. I am trying to figure out what that is. More on that later.

Member: 2 dinar websites put out to expect notifications tomorrow. Never heard specific dates before, but hope they are right…...

Member: After watching this, we’ll have to watch the John Dowling podcast with Mark Z.

MZ: Jon brought a lot to the table and I do enjoy my time with Mr. Dowling. https://youtu.be/lhvr3iB_alk?si=l69kmbwbPfovkv4X

Member: People think we have no power here to make this reset happen. We get what we focus on. We have two options: depression, both mentally and economically; or hope of a reset and abundance and prosperity.

Member: I can't wait to retire.... What a great time to be alive.

Member: I think we are exactly ready to Re- value I’m not scared, and I am seeing too many things going on with many coms, the waiting is just difficult

Member: May you all have a beautiful and blessed day!

​​Member: Thank you Mark for all these years for giving us information … God bless you and your family

Iraq Economic News and Points to Ponder Late Tuesday Evening 4-22-25

UN Official: Iraq Is Witnessing Remarkable Progress In Various Fields And The Importance Of Continuing Its Partnership With The United Nations.

Time: 04/22/2025 10:55:59 Read: 2,445 times  {Political: Al Furat News} The Undersecretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for Bilateral Relations, Mohammed Hussein Mohammed Bahr Al-Ulum, received today, Monday, at the headquarters of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Baghdad, the Under-Secretary-General of the United Nations for Operational Support, Atul Khare, and his accompanying delegation, within the framework of joint coordination to implement UN Security Council Resolution No. (2732) regarding the termination of the mandate of the United Nations Assistance Mission to Iraq (UNAMI).

During the meeting, the Undersecretary of Foreign Affairs expressed, according to a statement from the ministry, a copy of which was received by {Euphrates News}, "the Iraqi government's appreciation for the important role played by the UNAMI mission since its establishment until today, stressing that the relationship between Iraq and the United Nations will enter a new phase of cooperation and partnership, based on the priorities of the next phase and the positive developments witnessed in Iraq."

The two sides discussed, according to the statement, "the mechanisms for implementing UN Security Council Resolution No. 2732, to ensure a smooth transition of the mission's tasks.

The Undersecretary affirmed Iraq's keenness to provide all facilities to ensure the implementation of this process in an organized manner, stressing Iraq's firm commitment to continuing constructive cooperation with the United Nations and its specialized agencies, based on its belief in the vital role played by the international organization in supporting stability and enhancing economic development efforts at the regional and international levels."

For his part, Khare praised the remarkable progress Iraq is witnessing in various fields and commended the Iraqi government's approach to consolidating internal stability and strengthening regional cooperation frameworks. He also emphasized the importance of continuing the partnership between Iraq and the United Nations as a fundamental pillar for supporting security and achieving sustainable development.

At the conclusion of the meeting, Khare expressed his appreciation for the Iraqi government's fruitful cooperation in the context of the gradual winding down of UNAMI's work, emphasizing that this cooperation represents a model of constructive coordination between member states and the United Nations.   LINK

Time: 2025/04/22 13:09:59 Read: 1,740 times  {Political: Al Furat News} The head of the National State Forces Alliance, Mr. Ammar al-Hakim, called for encouraging citizens to deposit their money in Iraqi banks.

A statement from his office, a copy of which was received by {Euphrates News}, stated that Mr. Al-Hakim received “this morning a number of Iraqi businessmen, headed by the head of the Iraqi Banks Association, Wadih Al-Handhal, and listened to their vision on reforming the banking sector in Iraq to keep pace with the state of urban and developmental progress in the country, and in all governorates.”

During the meeting, Mr. Al-Hakim stressed "the importance of keeping pace with global developments in this vital sector and linking the Iraqi banking system to the global banking system."

He called for "working to expand financial inclusion in banks, encouraging citizens to deposit their money in Iraqi banks, and turning this into a societal culture."

He pointed out the importance of granting loans to youth and the housing sector, as the latter stimulates many other productive sectors and provides job opportunities.  LINK

Kurdistan's Finance Ministry Announces The Transfer Of More Than 48 Billion Dinars Of Non-Oil Revenues To Baghdad.

Money and Business  Economy News – Baghdad  The Kurdistan Regional Government's Ministry of Finance and Economy announced on Tuesday that the federal treasury's share of non-oil revenues for March of this year has been transferred to the federal Ministry of Finance's account.

The ministry stated in a statement received by Al-Eqtisad News that “the transferred amount amounted to 48 billion, 205 million, and 765 thousand Iraqi dinars, and it was deposited in cash into the Federal Ministry of Finance’s bank account at the Erbil branch of the Central Bank of Iraq.”

The Kurdistan Regional Government's Ministry of Finance and Economy previously transferred approximately 52 billion dinars in non-oil revenues to the federal treasury in Baghdad in February. https://economy-news.net/content.php?id=54714

An Expert Identifies The Missing Link To Diversifying Sources Of Income And Achieving Economic Reform.

Time: 2025/04/21 22:36:51 Read: 3,120 times  {Economic: Al Furat News} Economic expert Qusay Safwan identified the missing link in the path to diversifying sources of income and achieving economic reform in Iraq. He noted that controlling corruption begins with the banking sector and is linked to understanding revenue risks and the behavior of the Iraqi dinar at border crossings.


During his appearance on the "Free Talk" program on Al Furat TV channel this evening, Safwan explained that "economic diversification cannot be achieved without regulating these outlets, which are a tool for protecting local production and developing investment." He indicated that "reforming the financial sector requires rehabilitating banks through mergers, partnerships, and specialization."

He stressed that "these goals are still far off, and the real beginning lies in developing the human resources working in the banking sector, especially since most Iraqi banks focus their grants on the housing sector."

Safwan explained that "the Central Bank's policy is geared toward supporting financial inclusion, as 40% of individuals use electronic banks, a matter linked to suspicions of money laundering." He called for "providing incentives to credit card holders and motivating them through tax exemptions and import facilitation, which would enhance the conversion of the dinar into hard currency through the Central Bank."

He pointed out that "the Central Bank alone cannot reform the Iraqi economy in light of the lack of control over border crossings and the citizens' lack of trust in banks," emphasizing that "investing in technology is costly, but necessary and yields tangible benefits for shops and businesses."

Safwan revealed that "Iraq has $100 billion in the US Federal Reserve," emphasizing "the need to eliminate intermediaries and build a direct relationship between producers and consumers," warning that "corruption is greater than the support available at the outlets."

He added, "Private banks were established as joint-stock companies, and their shares are now denominated below the dinar mark and are available to all." He called on the Central Bank to "address the dispute between it and the Companies Registrar regarding dividend distribution, which is prompting small shareholders to sell their shares to major investors."

Safwan concluded by saying, "Government banks need a comprehensive restructuring to drive development and create investment portfolios for agricultural, industrial, and commercial cities." He also highlighted the need to integrate the local market with global markets, similar to the Gulf banks, and attract $350 billion domestically.  LINK

Seeds of Wisdom RV and Economic Updates Wednesday Morning 4-23-25

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

TRUMP WARNS: “PERFECT TIME” FOR FED RATE CUTS — WILL JEROME POWELL LISTEN?

▪️Trump clarified he won't fire Powell but strongly urges the Fed to cut rates, citing global easing.

▪️Markets reacted with cautious optimism, as trade tension easing and Trump's comments influenced Bitcoin and treasury yields.

▪️The Fed remains cautious, balancing inflation with potential tariff impacts, despite Trump's pressure for rate cuts.

The debate over Federal Reserve rate cuts is heating up again. President Donald Trump says he’s not firing Fed Chair Jerome Powell — but he’s clearly running out of patience. In classic Trump style, the message is direct, the pressure is rising, and the markets are watching closely.

Here’s what’s unfolding behind the scenes.

“Perfect Time” for Action, Says Trump

Speaking to reporters, Trump called it the “perfect time” for the Fed to lower interest rates. He dismissed growing speculation about Powell’s removal but didn’t hold back on criticism of the Fed’s slow pace.

“I’m not firing Powell,” Trump said, blaming the media for the rumors. But he added that Powell should be moving faster, especially as other global central banks are already easing their policies.

“He should act early or on time, not late,” Trump said, signaling that the Fed’s current approach could soon fall behind the curve.

Bitcoin Breaks $90K as Market Reacts

Despite Trump’s strong remarks, broader markets stayed steady. But Bitcoin surged past the $90,000 mark, boosted by optimism from both Trump’s comments and new statements from the U.S. Treasury Secretary, who called the trade war with China “unsustainable.”

Short-term Treasury yields edged up to 3.82% after a weak government bond auction, while the U.S. dollar held its ground. Investors appeared cautiously optimistic about easing trade tensions.

Analysts: Trump Is Managing Expectations

Analysts say Trump’s push for rate cuts might be more about shaping public expectations than actually threatening Powell’s role. While Trump says Powell is safe, his public pressure could serve to redirect blame if economic growth slows.

This isn’t the first time Trump has publicly criticized the Fed — and likely won’t be the last.

Fed Holds Course as Inflation Stays High

For now, the Federal Reserve is staying the course. Powell’s position appears secure, and Fed officials are focused on evaluating the long-term effects of Trump’s trade, tax, and immigration policies.

With inflation still running above the 2% target for the fourth year in a row, most Fed members believe current interest rates are appropriate.

Growth Risks Could Force a Rethink

Still, some economists warn that the ripple effects of Trump’s tariffs could slow growth later this year. If that happens, the Fed may have no choice but to revisit its stance.

Rate cuts may not be off the table — even if Powell continues to resist political pressure.

With Wall Street rebounding and Trump increasing his calls for action, one thing is clear: the Trump vs. Powell rate debate isn’t going away anytime soon.

For now, Powell keeps his seat and his stance — but the clock is ticking, and everyone knows it.

XRP IS THE COIN WITH ‘THE MOST UTILITY,’ SAYS TEUCRIUM CEO

In an interview on Bloomberg Crypto with anchors Tim Stenovec and Katie Greifeld, Teucrium Trading’s chief executive officer (CEO) Sal Gilbertie argued that XRP is the crypto asset with “the most utility” in the entire space.

“Ripple’s a company of really professional people working really hard on this. That’s why we chose XRP. We believe in XRP. We’re not making a price prediction, but we do believe it’s a coin that will have the most utility out there. You know Bitcoin is a store of value […] but I think that XRP has a true use case,” Gilbertie remarked.

He further highlighted the professionality of the Ripple team which is a big reason the company believes in the crypto asset: “There’s just no doubt about it in the Ripple team from what the interaction we’ve had with them […] They act like investment bankers over there. They know what they’re doing and they will make this work.”

Teucrium’s 2x Long XRP ETF

Teucrium launched the first XRP-based exchange-traded fund (ETF) in the United States on April 8. The Teucrium 2x Long Daily XRP ETF, traded under the ticker XXRP on NYSE Arca, is a 2x leveraged fund aiming to provide twice the daily return of the token.

The ETF’s launch coincided with a sharp rebound in the underlying token. While Teucrium cannot see its shareholder register in real time, Gilbertie believes early flows reflect “a mix of professionals and retail trading their own accounts.” XXRP is engineered explicitly for intraday traders, he emphasized: 

“This specific product is geared toward traders who have a short-term view—primarily a one-day view—of what XRP’s price moves might be. This allows them in a traditional brokerage account to achieve leverage without a margin account.”

Gilbertie acknowledged that such magnified exposure is unsuitable for naïve investors. “Of course it’s risky. Leveraged funds are always risky and people need to be very careful,” he cautioned, adding: “I hope that the non-sophisticated traders do their homework first before they set foot in this.”

The conversation also illuminated a shifting regulatory atmosphere in Washington. Gilbertie contrasted the Securities and Exchange Commission’s current leadership with its prior stance under former Chair Gary Gensler, without naming him directly but characterizing the previous regime as “a blocker” to digital-asset innovation.

“The old SEC regime was a blocker…worked against the crypto industry,” he said. By contrast, the gap between administrations—during which newly confirmed Chair Paul Atkins and the fresh slate of commissioners were still settling in—created a moment when Teucrium’s application could proceed.

“We applied as soon as we could, meaning the old regime had left and wouldn’t block us, and we simply listed as soon as we could following the normal rules. The staff is really wonderful at the SEC…It’s the leadership that matters.”

XXRP’s methodology relies on daily rebalancing of swap positions to deliver twice the token’s move—up or down—over a single trading session. Compounding makes the fund unsuitable as a long-term proxy, an intrinsic feature common to all daily leveraged products but one the firm has gone to pains to highlight in its prospectus. Gilbertie underscored that message: “Volatility is the point. You want the action,” but traders must understand that the action cuts both ways.

For now, Gilbertie is betting that the community’s zeal, combined with a friendlier SEC stance, will keep volume humming. “We thought the time was right,” he concluded, “and so far the market seems to agree.”

At press time, XRP traded at $2.24.

Walkingstick   We have entered a window of two weeks to two months.  A window of opportunity for this to go...

Frank26   Nothing is logical at 1310.  That's why to me it is such powerful evidence when we don't see the salaries...HCL...budget tables...lower notes because everything on that list is simply waiting for the new exchange rate...Everything is at a standstill.  Everything is frozen.  It's like somebody clicked the stopwatch and it stopped time in Iraq until a new exchange rate is brought forth. 

Sandy Ingram  The Central Bank of Iraq has successfully completed its transition to having foreign currency transfers handled directly by Iraqi banks through their international correspondent banks moving away from the previous centralized electric platform.  This shift...marks a major step in aligning Iraq's banking operations with international standards.

Gold at the Center of Chaos – Global System Breaking Down | Axel Merk

Kitco News:  4-22-2025

Gold soared past $3,500 an ounce. Bitcoin broke $90,000. Treasury yields surged. And the IMF just cut its global growth forecast to 2.8% — the slowest since the pandemic.

As safe-haven flows shift and capital moves away from U.S. assets, questions are rising about the future of the dollar, Federal Reserve independence, and the direction of global markets.

 In this Kitco News interview, Axel Merk, President and CIO of Merk Investments and portfolio manager of the ASA Gold and Precious Metals Fund, joins Jeremy Szafron to unpack what he calls “a structural shift” in the financial system.

Merk explains why the U.S. is behaving more like a hedge fund than a central bank, why gold is signaling deep systemic stress, and why the market may be underreacting to the risks ahead.

He also shares where smart money is going now — and why junior gold miners may offer critical upside as volatility grows.

Iraq Economic News and Points to Ponder Tuesday Afternoon 4-22-25

Gold Reserves
 
Economic 04/20/2025  Mohammed Sharif Abu Maysam   Amid the ongoing tensions in the world and the Middle East,  purchasing gold is among the most important options for diversifying monetary reserves.
 
This is crucial to  counteracting political fluctuations that directly and indirectly impact the economy and the inflationary situation,  which impacts overall market prices,  including exchange rates and the prices of goods and services.  This is a key element in ensuring a significant national security instrument.
 
Gold is economically known as a safe haven against the volatility of currencies and prices in energy and other commodity markets under complex circumstances.

Accordingly, the components of monetary policy in our country (which was and still is under the influence of international and regional factors and variables, in addition to a set of internal data and speculation that is constantly returning to the forefront to have a significant impact on market movement and monetary stability) are in dire need of diversifying reserves and increasing their savings in gold,
 
which is distinguished from other reserves by its ability to maintain its material value under various circumstances.
 
The Central Bank of Iraq's recent announcement that Iraq possesses one of the highest gold reserves among Arab countries, at 162 tons, had a positive impact on observers and the general public.
 
It had a positive impact on public opinion on the street, increasing the confidence of the banking public and those following monetary policy.
 
This, in turn, establishes a public opinion that trusts the local currency and the national economy.
 
It is well established that gold has an advantage when compared to paper currency, which has no fixed assets.
 
This gives the national economy a high degree of stability and reliability, even in the event of shocks resulting from changes or decisions issued by international bodies that attempt to link the Iraqi economy to their own decisions.
 
The greater the gold reserve compared to cash reserves (which are supposed to be diversified),
the greater the ability of the person in charge of monetary policy to ward off any risks that may befall the economy,
while also activating the role of other real sectors and increasing their contribution to the gross domestic product.
 
In the context of our ambitions,
we hope that Iraq will occupy a prominent position on the list of countries with rising gold reserves.

This position not only provides monetary policymakers with flexibility in decision-making,
but also contributes to providing the overall economy with a buffer against anticipated economic problems amid the fluctuations witnessed in our region and the world.
 
It also strengthens national security,  which is linked to economic security.      https://alsabaah.iq/113123-.html    

Government Banking Reforms And Their Role In Bypassing Sanctions... A Banking Researcher Explains.
 
April 16, 2025  Baghdad/Iraq Observer   The Iraqi government, in cooperation with the Central Bank of Iraq, has prepared a plan of  (3) main objectives in cooperation with an American consulting company, (Olver & Amin), to
 
     reform and modernize the banking sector, with the aim of
     enhancing the protection of depositors and creditors and
     improving confidence in the sector,  after difficulties related to the transfer of funds and American restrictions.
 
After the sanctions, the term “messaging accounts” emerged.
 
Mustafa Hantoush, an expert in financial and banking affairs, confirms that  private banks have faced major problems, most notably US sanctions,  which necessitated a detailed study to change the situation affecting these banks.
 
Speaking to the Iraq Observer, Hantoush said, “Regarding  the private banking sector, which has faced problems over the past three years related to US sanctions,  the term ‘correspondent accounts’ emerged as Iraqi banks faced operational disruptions, and the state attempted to address the situation in collaboration with an American consulting firm called Oliver & Amin.”

He added,  "The American firm Oliver & Amin conducted studies on sanctioned Iraqi banks over a five-month period and submitted a three-point report, the  first of which is that companies with real capital can develop themselves and circumvent sanctions by opening future accounts with JPMorgan."

 He continued, "While there are private banks that lack the necessary capabilities, they are merging with international banks, which is a step available to them." He added, "Regarding the third point, which concerns banks facing liquidity problems, they may face collapse and exit the sector."

He pointed out that “the steps to amend (government banks) have begun to accelerate towards the step of establishing Rafidain and Rashid Banks, but the special nature of these banks remains that they have large international obligations, including those related to debts during the Iran-Iraq war.

However, at the same time, a huge bank will be formed through these banks, stronger than the TBI, and
it will be the hand of the new state to enter into banking operations.”
 
The person in charge of financial and banking affairs stated that "the government established the First Rafidain Bank, which contributes 24% to the state and 76% to the private sector."
 
Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani had previously sponsored the Iraqi Banking Sector Reform Conference, emphasizing that the government assumed responsibility amid a complex economic climate that required measures to achieve stability and ensure growth.

He pointed to the achievements made in the financial, banking, and economic sectors,
which represented positive steps toward establishing a solid foundation for development and investing in stability.     https://observeriraq.net/الاصلاحات-المصرفية-الحكومية-ودورها-ب/ 

The Central Bank Concludes Its Session On The Basel Committee's Decisions.
 
April 21, 2025   The Banking Studies Center at the Central Bank of Iraq concluded its course on the Basel Committee’s decisions and the  Self-Assessment of Capital Adequacy (ICAAP) in accordance with the second pillar of Basel (3) decisions.
 
(53) trainees from the departments of Finance, Risk, Internal Audit, Credit, and Compliance in a number of Iraqi banks participated in the course.
 
The training program for the participants included a complete vision of the Basel Committee’s decisions (3), especially the second pillar of those decisions related to the
 
self-assessment of capital adequacy, as well as identifying the practices related to calculating (ICAAP)
to reach an understanding of the skills of assessing capital adequacy.

Tax Reform: A Step Towards Diversifying Revenues And Achieving Justice.
 
Economic 04/16/2025  Baghdad: Nour Najah Abdullah  Given the economic challenges facing the country,   tax reform is at the top of government policy priorities.
 
It is a crucial step toward reducing reliance on oil revenues, which continue to constitute the backbone of the general budget.
 
Although tax revenues in Iraq do not exceed 1 to 2 percent of GDP—a low figure compared to international standards—
 
there is broad consensus among experts on the need to move forward with comprehensive and radical reforms that will contribute to building a fair, effective, and balanced tax system.

Financial and economic experts believe that the starting point for reform is to expand the tax base to include all economic activities, whether in the formal or informal sector, while ensuring that the liberal professions and the service and commercial sectors contribute to the public treasury.
 
This requires a comprehensive update of taxpayer records, through the creation of an accurate central database encompassing individuals, companies, and institutions, enabling the tracking of income and the accurate and transparent assessment of tax liabilities.
 
Experts stress the importance of adopting a progressive tax system that imposes higher rates on high-income and large-profit individuals, while granting tax exemptions or reductions to low-income families and individuals.
 
This is intended to achieve social justice and reduce the economic gap between social classes. 

Amending Income Tax Law No. 113 of 1982 is also urgent, given its outdated provisions and their failure to keep pace with the economic and financial transformations that Iraq has witnessed over the past decades.
 
Speaking to Al-Sabah, economic expert Nabil Jabbar Al-Tamimi argues that  true reform can only be achieved through a radical change in the legislative and institutional structure.
 
He calls for rewriting tax laws to align with the nature of the contemporary Iraqi economic system, and for the establishment of a new authority built from scratch and managed by young cadres who have never worked within the traditional tax system, but rather possess academic qualifications and experience in global tax systems.

Al-Tamimi also emphasizes the need to fully automate the system and utilize technology in all aspects of the process, from assessment to collection, to enhance efficiency and transparency and reduce the opportunities for manipulation and corruption.
 
For his part, economic expert Ziad Al-Hashemi told Al-Sabah that the most prominent challenges facing the tax system in Iraq are the outdated legislation and administrative mechanisms in place, which have led to weak tax coverage and declining collection efficiency.

 He believes that modernizing the system requires simplifying procedures, increasing the efficiency of staff, developing internal oversight tools, and enhancing transparency in the relationship between citizens and the state, which will reduce tax evasion rates and increase voluntary compliance.

Financial expert Safwan Qusay points out that tax justice cannot be achieved without accurately digitizing and documenting income across various sectors, including agriculture, trade, and services, while raising exemption limits for individuals and poor families to protect them from the negative effects of the reform.
 
He suggests tracking the bank accounts of companies and individuals to verify sources of income and spending patterns, which would contribute to building a clear picture of taxpayers' financial solvency. In a statement to Al-Sabah,
 
he called for linking the tax to citizens' desires for public spending, so that a percentage of it would be directed to specific sectors such as education or health, based on the taxpayer's choices.
 
This would enhance community oversight and confidence in the effectiveness of the tax system.
 
In contrast, Mazhar Mohammed Saleh, the Prime Minister's advisor for financial affairs, confirms that the government has already launched eight tax reform packages, the most important of which are the  
introduction of new segments of market forces that previously evaded taxes, and the adoption of electronic collection to reduce friction between citizens and employees.
 
Saleh compares Iraq to countries like Denmark, where income tax amounts to approximately 46 percent of GDP.
 
This explains the ability of those countries to fund high-quality education, health, and social security.
 
In Iraq, this percentage does not exceed 2 percent, reflecting the fragility of the tax base and the continued overreliance on oil revenues.
 
Saleh points out that the government's program aims to increase non-oil revenues to 20 percent of total public revenues in the near future, up from the current rate of only about 7 percent.
 
This will be achieved by expanding the taxable population, adopting modern technological systems, and amending legislation, including the Income and Property Tax Law, which has not been updated in more than four decades.
 
Despite the clarity of the reform vision and the multitude of initiatives, challenges remain, most notably the lack of trust in tax institutions, the inadequacy of technical infrastructure, and the absence of a culture of voluntary compliance among broad segments of society.
 
Furthermore, there is a lack of good governance in directing tax revenues toward development spending.
 
Observers believe that success in this vital issue will only be achieved through strong political will, profound administrative reform, and an effective partnership with the private sector and civil society to build a modern and fair tax system that keeps pace with Iraq's aspirations for development and economic stability.      https://alsabaah.iq/112971-.html

Good Evening Dinar Recaps,

CIRCLE LAUNCHES 'CIRCLE PAYMENTS NETWORK'

The new network will use stablecoins such as USDC and EURC to help financial institutions facilitate global money movement and settlement.

USDC Issuer Circle Debuts Payments Network

Stablecoin firm Circle, issuer of USDC which currently has a market capitalization of roughly $61 billion, has launched “Circle Payments Network (CPN),” a collaborative group of financial institutions that use stablecoins to enable global movement and settlement of funds.

The company announced the network launch on Monday and said more than 20 financial institutions have already signed on. Circle listed companies such as remittance giant World Remit, Nigerian financial services firm Yellow Card, and crypto custody firm Fireblocks, as initial partners.

Large banks like Standard Chartered and Deutsche Bank will take on an advisory role, and more companies will be gradually added to the network.

CPN’s goal is to take advantage of the flexibility stablecoins offer to overcome current operational friction in cross-border payments. Circle says CPN will support remittances, invoice payments, treasury services, and payroll.

“Existing cross-border payments can be slow and expensive,” Circle said in an X post. “CPN is designed to bring efficiencies to the payments system. It is not just faster. It is programmable, secure, and always available.”

Good Afternoon Dinar Recaps,

BRICS: US & INDIA FINALIZE TERMS OF REFERENCE FOR NEW TRADE DEAL

Despite the tensions between the nation and the BRICS alliance, the US and India have reportedly finalized terms of reference for a new trade deal. Indeed, US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer confirmed the major development amid US Vice President JD Vance’s visit to the country, according to a CNBC report.

Moreover, Greer noted that the United States and India’s Ministry of Commerce and Industry have clearly laid out “a roadmap for the negotiations on reciprocal trade.” The major headway was confirmed as Vance traveled to India, meeting with President Narendra Modi on Monday.

US Vice President Meets With Indian President as New Trade Deal Takes Step Forward

Since the start of April, tensions between the United States and the BRICS alliance have been growing. Specifically, the country is inching closer toward a trade war with China. Indeed, amid a series of sweeping global tariffs, they levied an import duty that could reach heights of 245% on China.

However, that hasn’t stopped allies within the economic alliance from seeking a new agreement with the country. Indeed, the US and India have reportedly finalized the terms of reference for a new trade deal. The development was made as US Vice President JD Vance visited the nation, meeting with President Narendra Modi.

According to reports, the two sides have made “significant progress” towards a new trade deal. Both world leaders made note of their “continued efforts” to grow their collaboration. Moreover, they championed the need for a “mutually beneficial India-US bilateral trade agreement.”

During the initial arrival of US President Donald Trump’s Liberation Day tariff plan, India was given a 26% reciprocal tariff. However, that was lessened when the administration announced a 90-day pause. Subseuqnlety, until it resumes, the nation is facing a 10% baseline tariff alongside all US trade partners.

THE GREAT RESET JUST TOOK A MAJOR HIT

On the same day Pope Francis—known for his inclusive beliefs—passed away, another globalist fell: Klaus Schwab, the architect of the World Economic Forum's dystopian agenda, announced he was stepping down from the WEF board.

It marks the end of an era for Schwab, who championed radical wokeness, bug eating, mass vaccination campaigns, population control, and climate de-growth policies through what often resembled digital communism—social credit scores, central bank digital currencies, and many more China-like policies.

Meanwhile, cultural shifts across the Americas signal a rising movement toward traditional values, sending the WEF's ideological woke grip on governments, non-government organizations, corporations, the church, and society into disarray.

"Following my recent announcement, and as I enter my 88th year, I have decided to step down from the position of Chair and as a member of the Board of Trustees, with immediate effect," Schwab wrote in a statement.

Schwab stepped down as executive chairman one year ago, with former Norwegian Foreign Minister Borge Brende taking over daily operations. WEF said Vice Chairman Peter Brabeck-Letmathe was appointed board chairman in the interim and that a search committee for replacement had been appointed.

WEF stated:

"At a time when the world is undergoing rapid transformation, the need for inclusive dialogue to navigate complexity and shape the future has never been more critical. The Board of Trustees of the World Economic Forum underlines the importance of remaining steadfast in its mission and values as a facilitator of progress. Building on its trusted role, the Forum will continue to bring together leaders from all sectors and regions to exchange insights and foster collaboration."

Schwab’s resignation also comes three months after President Trump told globalist CEOs at the WEF’s 2025 Annual Meeting in Davos, Switzerland, “America is back.” It also follows Trump and Elon Musk’s DOGE initiative, which nuked USAID programs that funneled billions of taxpayer dollars into corrupt NGOs.

Last month, Eric Weinstein made some very interesting comments at ARC 2025, indicating:

"The post-World War II order has fallen. JD Vance has announced this - I personally think it's very important that the US treat its friends in Europe very very well and it should be done in a fashion that lets people know that the US will be there for the long haul. I am sure that that is in the cards, but we have to realize that we are waking up from a very long period of time which I've called the "Great Nap"..."

Did Trump's MAGA derail Schwab's 'Great Reset' plans?

Looks like it. But globalists will rebrand. So stay tuned.
