RV Excerpts from the Restored Republic via a GCR: Update as of Fri. 30 May 2025

Compiled Fri. 30 May 2025 12:01 am EST by Judy Byington

Possible Timing of GESARA and the Global Currency Reset:

GESARA Activation A Financial Revolution: The long-awaited GESARA wealth transfer has commenced, with banks being dismantled and the Federal Reserve neutralized. Key developments include:

Debt Forgiveness: Individuals in various regions are experiencing the erasure of debts, including student loans and mortgages.

Repatriation of Stolen Wealth: Trillions in offshore accounts linked to the DS are being returned to fund GESARA initiatives.

Thurs. 29 May 2025: HISTORIC BOND REDEMPTION — THE QFS-ACTIVATED RESET OF GLOBAL WEALTH …QFS on Telegram

The vaults are opening. What was once sealed in silence is now being digitally awakened through the most powerful financial weapon ever created — the Quantum Financial System. These are not ordinary bonds. They are generational instruments of gold-backed sovereignty, issued by monarchs, empires, and nations long before the rise of the fiat matrix.

 Suppressed for decades, mocked by the mainstream, and buried under layers of globalist deception — these bonds are now triggering the collapse of the central banking order, under the full authentication and enforcement of the QFS.

At the heart of the redemption lies a technology they never wanted us to have — the Quantum Financial System. With unbreakable encryption, quantum verification, and military-grade oversight, the QFS is verifying, timestamping, and processing legitimate historic bonds in real time.

Every notarized document, every lineage-confirmed certificate, is being logged permanently into the QFS grid. There are no middlemen. No fraud. No room for manipulation. This is financial sovereignty at the speed of light — and it’s happening now.

Behind the scenes, sovereign alliances, White Hat financial officers, and elite legal teams are coordinating with redemption desks running parallel to legacy systems. The commercial banks are being bypassed. The central banks are being exposed.

As bonds tied to the Qing Dynasty, Treaty of Versailles, and post-WWII reconstruction are redeemed, the QFS is executing instant value transfers, recalibrating real-time asset-backed liquidity into the new gold-standard economy. These instruments were never dead — they were waiting for the system powerful enough to process them.

And that system is here. It’s active. It’s irreversible. The QFS is not a theory. It is the central nervous system of the Global Financial Reset. Every redemption strips power from fiat creators and re-anchors global trade on truth and substance.

As even a fraction of these bonds move through the QFS, the ripple becomes a wave: fiat devalues, gold spikes, shadow assets vanish, and suppressed wealth returns to the people. This is why the elite are panicking. This is why fake bond scams are flooding the space. Because the real ones are being cashed — and the system can’t stop it.

The counterfeits are obvious: no seals, no signatures, no chain of custody. But the QFS knows the difference. With quantum tagging and biometric integration, the system can trace every authentic document back to its origin. There’s no escaping the code. Fraud dies in a system built on light.

Historic bonds are not paper relics. They are detonators. When run through the QFS, they don’t just redeem wealth — they collapse empires built on lies. What’s unfolding is not an audit. It’s a controlled demolition of the old guard. The era of artificial scarcity is ending. The real wealth, hidden in vaults and safeguarded by trust, is coming home.

And at the center of it all — the Quantum Financial System. Silent. Absolute. Unstoppable. History is not being rewritten. It’s being reactivated.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

From Thurs. 5 June to Mon. 9 June 2025 the Tier4B window would be (allegedly)  open. Internal banking advisories indicated public redemption will begin regionally, based on QFS load-balancing and readiness reports.

From Tues. 10 June to Fri. 13 June 2025 all Tier4b appointment notifications will be (allegedly)  issued.

From Sat. 14 June 14 to Tues. 17 June 2025 the General Public rollout would (allegedly)  happen, with the Sat. 14 June U.S. Army’s 250th Anniversary Parade at the National Mall serving not just as a celebration — but as confirmation that America was back under Constitutional Rule.

Around Sun. 15 June 15 and Mon. 16 June 2025 expect minor banking downtimes, signaling the final switchover to full QFS integration.

On Wed. 18 June to Sat. 21 June 2025 the Global Access Phase would (allegedly)  begin for Tier 5, the General Public.

Thurs. 29 May 2025 Bruce The Big Call: A source said that the new rates would be up on the screens by Sat 31 May. We have confirmation Tier4b will get started the first days of June. DOGE payments will be out the first part of June. The raise in Social Security payments will start in June. There was a return to the Gold Standard last Tues. 27 May 2025. Ask for the contract rate on the Dinar.

Thurs. 29 May 2025 Jon Dowling: We don’t do dates and rates over here (Iraq), but we now know officially that July 9th is the back wall for the reset to occur optically. Now that Iraq has been(allegedly)   funded in the private sector, the Iraqi military orders the two-hundred member special forces unit that protected Maliki, which is directly linked to the Prime Minister’s office.

 The trade agreements, as well as peace agreements are now being finalized into the month of June and the XRP case will finally be completed, as well as a Gold backed stablecoin, directly tied to the new US Note, thanks in part to Texas’s efforts.

Iraq also just launched the new Sadr city, with over 60,000 new homes and infrastructure. Additionally, new partnerships with Europe and the Middle East are being forced. You build and fund the infrastructure from within and then the finances permeate in the public eye shortly thereafter. There’s a big clue for those who know.

Frank26  Do you believe it was the IMF that released those two [Forex] paragraphs?"  Yeah I do because you can trace it.  You can find it...Those paragraphs are about the white papers.  The White Papers is the blueprint of the economic reform of Iraq because of the success of the monetary reform.  

Walkingstick  This [Forex] memo confirms the Iraqi dinar is fully armed for public rate visibility at $4.81 with active infrastructure integration, live suppression staging and institutional level confirmation...We believe this to be true. What that paragraph means is the IQD is now convertible...[and] has absolutely no restrictions on the currency at all -  Article VIII.

Militia Man   Article: "Central Bank: Our measures contribute to lowing the exchange rate and the decline is not temporary."  Lowing the rate exchange rate of the dollar to the dinar...that's what that means...

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

XRP LAWSUIT: NEW MYSTERIOUS ‘DECISIVE EVIDENCE’ TO CHANGE RIPPLE OUTCOME?

▪️ Mysterious Filing Resurfaces: Justin Keener submits an emergency motion claiming “decisive evidence” that could aid Ripple in its lawsuit.

▪️ Ripple vs. SEC Drama Continues: Legal experts weigh in as the XRP community watches how this filing might impact the case before June 16.

The XRP lawsuit never “fails to entertain” and it just got interesting. A mysterious filing by Justin W. Keener with an emergency motion has resurfaced again.

Decisive Evidence to Change the Outcome?

Keener says that he has “decisive evidence” which could change the outcome of the Ripple vs. SEC case in favor of Ripple. This unexpected move invited comments from experts like Bill Morgan and Marc Fagel.

“XRP Case Never Fails to Surprise”

Bill Morgan shared that he expected some kind of filing, especially with the 60-day deadline for a status update nearing on June 16. He didn’t expect a lengthy, emotional rant against the Howey Test and its court interpretations, especially about “investment contracts.” The rant also criticized the SEC’s actions over the past 90 years.

“This case never fails to entertain or end,” he said, which shows how unpredictable the lawsuit has become.

Marc Fagel also pointed out that this is the second time the same individual has submitted documents. The SEC even responded to the first one but questioned why the court hasn’t shut down the person’s PACER account yet, given the unauthorized filings.

Keener’s first attempt to submit his “decisive evidence” in the Ripple case was shut down back in April, but he’s now trying again. Keener was recently fined $10 million for illegally trading penny stocks without registering as a dealer.

Will This Impact the Lawsuit?

The XRP community is watching closely to see if this would have any impact on the lawsuit. Most expect the court to reject it again, but how the judge and SEC respond this time will show whether it has any real impact.

In a recent letter to the SEC, Ripple said that fungible crypto assets like XRP aren’t securities in secondary sales. Citing legal expert Lewis Cohen and a 2023 court ruling, Ripple argued that these tokens don’t carry the legal traits of securities and requested the SEC to adopt clearer rules, noting that XRP itself was ruled not a security in public trading.

BRICS: 44 COUNTRIES ALIGN WITH DE-DOLLARIZATION AGENDA

A total of 44 countries are aligning with the de-dollarization agenda kick-started by the BRICS alliance. The 11-member bloc is rewriting trade policies to benefit their national economies and currencies while ignoring the US dollar.

The shift against the greenback is accelerating as emerging economies are bringing investments back home. Developing countries are cutting ties with the US-based financial investments such as bonds, and accumulating gold and local currencies in their reserves.

The economic policies of the White House have caused extreme financial distress in developing countries. From Trump initiating tariffs to trade wars and global dominance, emerging economies are siding with BRICS as the bloc advances the de-dollarization agenda.

The US now stands alone on the global stage as even the European Union, which is its close ally, is considering the euro for transactions. Several leaders have openly called to reduce dependency on the USD and focus on European assets.

44 Countries Align With BRICS De-Dollarization Agenda

Vietnam became the latest country to show interest in the BRICS de-dollarization agenda in 2025. Around 44 countries are interested in BRICS expansion and officially taking part in the de-dollarization policies. The nations who are on the sidelines want to dismantle the US dollar’s dominance and replace it with local currencies.

The upcoming 17th summit in Rio de Janeiro will signal how fast the process will gain shape next. BRICS made it clear that the long-term goal of the alliance is to fast-track de-dollarization and end the US dollar’s supremacy. It is reported that many more countries could join the bandwagon from Asia and nations from the African region.

Emerging economies want to use BRICS as a stepping stone to officially launch the de-dollarization roadmap in their respective countries. They would have the backing of the New Development Bank (NDB) which can disburse loans in local currencies for infrastructural developments.

5 Basic Money Skills Many Americans Don’t Know

5 Basic Money Skills Many Americans Don’t Know

Ashley Donohoe  Thu, May 29, 2025   GOBankingRates

A Pew Research study found that 46% of Americans didn’t have at least a fair amount of knowledge of personal finances. Unfortunately, lacking financial literacy can put you at risk of taking on too much debt, not having enough for retirement and being unable to cover expenses.

In a YouTube video, money expert George Kamel reacted to this study’s findings and gave straightforward advice on handling five essential money tasks that many American adults struggle with. Learn how to boost your skills in these popular weak areas.

Checking Credit Reports

The Pew study noted that 25% of Americans didn’t feel very or extremely confident about getting their credit reports. While lenders and others may pull these reports to make important decisions based on your creditworthiness, you should also check them at least annually to spot errors or account issues and see where you stand with your debt.

Getting your credit report is easy, and you can do it weekly for free. While you could go directly to each credit bureau’s website, Kamel encouraged using AnnualCreditReport.com to get them all more conveniently. You’ll just need to provide some information to verify your identity. If you see any errors, contact your creditors and consider disputing them with the credit bureaus.

Budgeting

An estimated 41% of Pew study respondents weren’t very or extremely confident with budgeting. Not knowing where your money is going every month puts you at risk of overspending and not leaving some cash for your goals.

Kamel explained how to make a simple budget, starting with writing down your total monthly income and all expected monthly expenses (including giving and saving). You’ll then calculate what’s left of your income after those expenses, which Kamel said should be $0 based on his preferred zero-based budgeting method. But the same doesn’t apply to your bank account balance.

“It’s wise to keep a buffer of at least $100 bucks or more in your checking account,” Kamel said. Once you’ve got your budget, start tracking expenses to make sure you’re sticking to your plan.

Paying Off Debt

A report from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York mentioned that U.S. households owed a total of $18.2 trillion in debt. Especially for the 43% of Americans lacking confidence in paying down debt, the monthly payments, interest and lost opportunities to invest make it hard to get ahead.

Tishwash:  New Partnership to Connect the Middle East and Europe via Iraq

Zain Omantel International (ZOI) has announced a partnership with Iraq's Horizon Scope Telecom and the Iraqi Telecommunications and Information Company (ITPC), a government-owned company under the Iraqi Ministry of Telecommunications.

This partnership enables ZOI to create a digital telecommunications corridor stretching from the Middle East to Europe through Iraq, offering alternative terrestrial connectivity options that provide higher levels of capacity, security and efficiency.

According to a statement from ZOI, the route will use terrestrial fibre connectivity that utilises Iraq's position as a digital gateway, creating more reliable services that are less susceptible to interruptions. It will pass through Turkey and make its way up to Frankfurt, Germany. The new corridor will act as an alternative to traditional subsea routes by bypassing some of the turbulent areas. The route will enable international businesses, telecom operators and hyperscalers to expand their reach via robust, low-latency infrastructure, ensuring seamless connectivity between the Middle East and Europe.

Mr. Sohail Qadir, CEO at ZOI, said:

"By working together, we will enhance regional and international connectivity, offering higher capacity, security, and efficiency for businesses, operators and hyperscalers across continents."

Mr. Ahmed Abdulsalam, the Managing Director of Horizon Scope, said:

"Offering alternative terrestrial connectivity routes is a critical way to protect against infrastructure vulnerabilities, ensuring that enterprises can capture more opportunities and scale with reliable connectivity."

Mr. Ali Y. Dawood, the Director General of ITPC, said:

"This partnership marks a significant milestone in strengthening Iraq's position as a connectivity corridor, especially by providing an alternative path to Europe. We are committed to delivering connectivity solutions that the people of Iraq can trust and use to enable seamless global connectivity."  link

Tishwash:  The budget schedules will be released in mid-June.

The Finance Committee of the Iraqi Parliament revealed government efforts to submit the 2025 budget tables to Parliament, expecting the tables to be submitted to Parliament in the middle of next month. 

Committee member Moein Al-Kadhimi said in a press statement, "We have received information that the Ministry of Finance, along with the Ministry of Planning, is preparing budget tables for the year 2025 based on recent financial and economic changes, with the decline in oil prices. We expect these tables to be submitted in mid-June."

 Al-Kadhimi explained, "These agendas will reach the committee when the House of Representatives resumes its sessions. If the agendas reach the House, it will be obligated to hold sessions. This issue will certainly not be free of disagreements, whether political or technical. We may need approximately a month to vote on the agendas after they officially reach the committee and study them from various angles."  link

Tishwash:  Huge untapped wealth... Iraq's top 5 mines

Iraq's five most prominent mines reveal a map of mineral wealth that remains untapped due to decades of security challenges that have led to the neglect of these resources.

 According to a report published by the Energy Platform, Iraq's most prominent minerals include "sulfur, phosphate, and rock salt, along with strategic minerals such as iron, manganese, zinc, and lead." The report indicated that "despite the dominance of oil in the economy, Iraq boasts vast mineral resources concentrated in a number of mines."

The platform stated in its report: "The mining sector in Iraq has been marginalized for decades due to political and security tensions. However, recent years have witnessed increased interest in revitalizing this vital sector. The Iraqi government is currently attempting to attract international investment to revive these mines, particularly with the move to diversify the economy away from its reliance on oil."

She added: "Geological data and surveys indicate that Iraq possesses vast reserves of important ores such as sulfur, phosphate, rock salt, iron, and manganese, some of which are ranked among the largest in the world. International reports also reveal that Iraq holds the world's largest reserves of free sulfur, in addition to significant reserves of silica sand."

Energy highlighted the five most prominent mines in Iraq, which form a unique geological map that could position Iraq among the region's leading mineral-producing countries.

Al-Mashraq Mine

The Mishraq mine is one of the largest natural sulfur mines in the world, containing vast reserves of natural sulfur close to the Earth's surface. Sulfur is extracted from the mine by fusion and is used in the fertilizer, petroleum product, and water treatment industries.

According to Energy, "exploitation of the mine began in the 1960s and reached its peak in the 1970s, but ceased after 2003. Despite plans to rehabilitate it, the mine remains out of service. The mine consists of three fields. The first field's reserves are estimated at 23.5 million tons, the second field's reserves are 65.8 million tons, and the third field's reserves are 224 million tons."

The Mishraq mine suffered extensive damage during the ISIS era, when the group set fire to sulfur storage facilities in 2016, causing a rare environmental disaster.

Akashat Mine

The Akashat mine, located in Anbar Governorate, is one of the richest phosphate deposits in the Middle East, with total reserves estimated at more than 7 billion tons, making it one of the top five mines in Iraq.

She said: "The extracted phosphate is used in the manufacture of fertilizers, phosphoric acid, and animal feed, and its reserves in the western desert of Iraq are estimated at more than 10 billion tons."

The mine includes an open quarry, a processing plant, and a railway line connecting it to the Al-Qaim plant. However, the infrastructure has been damaged by wars and terrorism, halting production for many years. Efforts are underway to restart the mine through investment partnerships .
 
Samawah Mine

The Samawah mine, located in Muthanna Governorate in southern Iraq, is "one of the five most prominent mines in Iraq specializing in extracting rock salt. The salt ore there is distinguished by its high quality and pure sedimentary composition, and is used in the food and chemical industries," according to what the "Energy" platform reviewed.
 
She added, "The mine operates intermittently and is managed by the General Company for Mining Industries. It suffers from a lack of investment, but it covers a significant portion of the local market's needs, with the potential to develop it into a regional center for salt exports."
 
Iron and manganese

Sulaymaniyah Governorate in the Kurdistan Region has "promising areas for iron deposits, particularly in Qara Dagh and Birspi, where sedimentary rocks contain hematite and magnetite ores at concentrations ranging from 30 to 45%."

Despite these positive indicators, according to the Energy report, "none of these mines have been commercially exploited yet. Manganese is found in areas such as Soran and Dohuk, but exploration is still preliminary. Factors such as the lack of infrastructure and transportation, in addition to weak financing, represent the most significant obstacles to developing these sites."

Zinc and lead

The Ministry of Energy explained that "there are indications of the presence of good-quality zinc and lead deposits within MVT-type replacement carbonate formations in mountainous areas near the Turkish and Iranian borders, such as Mergasor, Zakho, and Qalaat Diza."

"The main minerals there include galena and sphalerite, along with barite and fluorite. Despite the presence of these resources, the mines have not yet been exploited, but they represent a golden opportunity for Iraq's future plans to develop the mining sector."  link

Stealth QE, Fed Secretly Bought $43.6B in Bonds, Why are they Hiding it?

Stealth QE, Fed Secretly Bought $43.6B in Bonds, Why are they Hiding it?

Daniela Cambone:  5-29-2025

The Federal Reserve’s recent actions are sparking debate about whether they’re quietly resurrecting quantitative easing (QE).

Michael Gentile, founding partner at Bastion Asset Management, argues emphatically that they are. In a recent interview with Daniela Cambone on ITM Trading, Gentile pointed to the Fed’s purchase of $43 billion in U.S. bonds as a sign of “how precarious the situation” has become for the U.S. economy.

While the Fed may be avoiding the “QE” label, Gentile believes this intervention is driven by concerning underlying factors. He highlights the rising U.S. deficits and a dwindling pool of natural buyers for U.S. debt. This leaves the Fed increasingly pressured to step in and prop up the market for U.S. Treasuries.

But the ramifications extend far beyond U.S. borders. According to Gentile, this situation is triggering a significant shift in global reserve strategy. Central banks around the world are reportedly diversifying their holdings, reducing their reliance on the U.S. dollar and actively accumulating physical gold.

“We’re seeing a multi-year, multi-decade rotation out of U.S. dollar assets into gold,” Gentile stated. This isn’t just a short-term reaction to market volatility; it represents a fundamental re-evaluation of global economic security.

The concerns stem from the potential for a self-perpetuating cycle. Increased government spending leads to larger deficits, requiring more borrowing. If the market isn’t willing to absorb this debt at acceptable interest rates, the Fed might be forced to intervene, artificially suppressing rates and potentially fueling inflation.

This intervention further devalues the U.S. dollar, making it less attractive as a reserve currency. Central banks, tasked with managing their nation’s wealth and protecting its economic stability, are then driven to seek alternative assets.

Gold, a traditional safe-haven asset, is seeing renewed interest. Its intrinsic value and historical resilience make it an attractive alternative to a potentially weakening dollar. Central banks diversifying into gold are essentially hedging against the risks associated with U.S. debt and the ongoing economic uncertainties.

Gentile’s perspective suggests that investors should carefully consider their own portfolio allocations. While the U.S. dollar remains a dominant force in the global economy, increasing diversification into assets like gold could provide a hedge against potential devaluation and economic instability.

The long-term implications of these trends remain to be seen. However, the growing concerns about U.S. debt and the flight to gold highlight the importance of staying informed and considering a diversified investment strategy in an increasingly uncertain global economic landscape.

Iraq Economic News And Points To Ponder Thursday Evening 5-29-25

Government Spending And Its Impact On Economic Growth In Iraq

Economic researcher Bassam Raad   Bassam Raad | Economic Researcher  Government spending is considered one of the main factors influencing economic growth in Iraq. It plays a fundamental role in stimulating local economic activity and has multiple impacts, ranging from positive to negative.

In a press statement by the Economic Advisor to the Prime Minister, Dr. Mazhar Mohammed Salih, published in Al-Mada newspaper, issue No. 5916, issued on Thursday, May 29, 2025, the Advisor said, "The country relies on oil revenues to finance public expenditures, representing up to 90% of total revenues, while government spending constitutes approximately 50% of the gross domestic product (GDP), which translates into approximately 85% of total demand, or spending on economic activity." End.

In this article, we will review the impact of government spending on economic growth in light of the Advisor's statement.

The Importance of Government Spending

When government expenditures constitute a large percentage of the GDP, this means that the government plays a major role in the economy. Government spending contributes to infrastructure, education, and health, enhancing the economy's ability to grow.

Dependence on Oil Revenues:  Iraq relies heavily on oil revenues, making government spending vulnerable to oil price fluctuations. Over the past two years, Iraq has seen an increase in government spending due to rising oil prices, but this increase now appears unsustainable with prices currently on a downward trend.

The Gap Between Operating and Investment Spending:  There is a significant gap between operating spending, which constitutes 70% of total public spending, and investment spending. Reducing this gap is essential to boost economic growth.

Fiscal Deficit: Data published on the Central Bank's website indicate that the total domestic debt increased from 70 trillion dinars in January 2024 to 80 trillion dinars in October 2024.

This means there is an actual deficit in the 2024 budget, covered through domestic borrowing and deductions from treasury transfers. The deficit is estimated at 4.2% of GDP in 2024. This deficit reflects the large size of spending compared to available revenues, increasing pressure on the economy.

Impact on Economic Growth:  Economic growth in Iraq is heavily dependent on government spending, especially given the weakness of other economic sectors such as industry and agriculture. This reliance could lead to economic risks such as deflation in the event of fluctuations in the oil asset cycle.

In conclusion, government spending, which amounts to nearly 50% of GDP, reflects a heavy reliance on the government for economic activity, raising concerns about future economic growth given the unsustainability of spending if oil revenues collapse. https://economy-news.net/content.php?id=55990

Foreign Reserves Between Inflation Targeting And External Rent Shocks

Dr. Haitham Hamid Mutlaq Al-Mansour  Monetary policy relies on a fixed exchange rate system to guide the real exchange rate towards the short-term target inflation rate. This system is appropriate for the Iraqi economy, as real output values ​​are linked to global prices due to the unilateral structure of the economy and the sharp decline in the contribution of non-oil exports to fixed capital formation. Therefore, the fixed exchange rate system was a realistic option to avoid the erosion of the value of the dinar.

Due to the impact of external rent shocks, controlling foreign reserves (dollars, gold, and securities included on the asset side of the Central Bank's balance sheet as Iraq's external debt) has become an instrumental approach to managing the Central Bank's responses to the aforementioned shocks.

This involves regulating exchange rate fluctuations, targeting inflation rates. Inflation can rise and fall due to external rent shocks, leading to fluctuations.

Therefore, the Central Bank uses its reserves to sterilize the dinar's expansion through dollar purchases and sales, and cash transactions in the stock market, both buying and selling, to achieve the target exchange rate.

The movement of foreign reserves is linked to public spending on oil revenues in dollars after the Central Bank exchanges them for dinars to meet demand from the private and public sectors, as well as government and household purchases. Depending on the surplus and deficit in the balance of payments, reserves grow or shrink.

When oil revenues rise, the central bank refrains from financing the budget deficit, and the government reduces its spending, aiming to raise foreign reserves to be used to finance the budget deficit when oil revenues decline again.

Foreign reserves witnessed a significant increase due to the positive shock in the second half of 2021, reaching 3.244 million barrels per day at an average price of $110 per barrel. This increased Iraq's surplus in public finances and overall external balances, as reserves exceeded $90 billion, helping to stabilize the stabilization system and inflation targeting.

However, with global oil prices heading towards a negative shock this year (2025) to less than $60 per barrel, and the Central Bank continuing its sterilization policies and measures towards international compliance, this led to a decline in reserves to less than $97 billion in March 2025, after having been around $105 billion in December 2024.

Due to the recent shock, the Central Bank resorted to compensating by increasing its foreign exchange sales.

Therefore, in light of external rent shocks, we see the need for coordination between government policy and the Central Bank. From the government policy side, spending must be restricted to purely technical limits, thus deepening the reduction of the government deficit and strengthening the strategic role of reserves.

Monetary policy must sustain its goal of achieving a stable inflation rate by managing the movement of the dollar exchange rate and demand for it in the interest of price stability and reducing costs in favor of rational spending policies.

Achieving low and stable inflation is an important factor in enhancing the local and foreign investment climate, which is linked to related economic policies, including commercial, agricultural, and industrial policies.

In short, the dependence of foreign reserve volatility on external shocks will remain a limiting factor in the national economy's ability to combat inflation and support the investment climate. Therefore, two levels of optimal solutions can be identified. The first, at the strategic level, involves sustained coordination between fiscal and monetary policies.

The second, at the macro and structural level of the Iraqi economy, lies in addressing the rentier nature of the economy by gradually increasing the contribution of non-oil GDP to meet aggregate domestic demand, while supporting export diversification policies.   https://economy-news.net/content.php?id=55965

5 Money Mistakes Even Financially Savvy People Make

5 Money Mistakes Even Financially Savvy People Make

Cindy Lamothe  GOBankingRates

No matter how great you are at managing your finances, no one is immune to making the occasional money mistake — and some of these can be dire.

“It’s important to recognize that some seemingly minor errors can have significant long-term effects,” said Michael Ashley, finance expert and founder of Richiest.

While everyone has financial blind spots, the good news is you can learn about them before they cause you problems. Here are some of the top money mistakes even the most financially savvy folks make.

Earning passive income doesn't need to be difficult. You can start this week.

Neglecting to Regularly Review and Adjust Financial Plans

One common mistake, according to Ashley, is neglecting to review and adjust your financial plans regularly. “Many people assume that once they’ve set up a budget or investment plan, they don’t need to revisit it.”

However, changes in income, expenses or life circumstances can render old plans obsolete, potentially leading to missed opportunities or financial shortfalls.

Underestimating Small, Recurring Expenses

Another frequent issue is underestimating the impact of small, recurring expenses.

While a small subscription service or daily coffee might not seem like a big deal, Ashley said these expenses can add up over time and erode savings if not monitored carefully. “This can be particularly damaging in the long run, as the cumulative effect of these small expenditures can be substantial.”

Failing To Diversify Investments

According to experts, some people also make the mistake of relying too heavily on a single investment or income source.

“Diversification is a fundamental principle of financial management, and failing to spread out investments or income streams can leave you vulnerable to market fluctuations or job loss,” said Ashley.

He explained this lack of diversification can result in significant financial risk and instability.

“Truth is, thinking that you are good with money is one of the easiest ways to let your guard down and put yourself in a situation where you steadily miss out on financial advancement opportunities,” said Mafe Aclado, finance expert and general manager at Coupon Snake.

In her experience, one of the most common money mistakes people make — even when they are generally good with money — is failing to diversify their investments. Particularly frugal people, for example, have some good habits, like avoiding impulse spending, but they also avoid all but the most familiar and safe investments.

She said these people lay all their financial eggs in one basket. “And what makes this a huge money mistake is by concentrating all their investment[s], they run a huge risk of loss if the investment performs badly.”

Foreign reserves between inflation targeting and external rent shocks

5/29/2025

Dr. Haitham Hamid Mutlaq Al-Mansour

Monetary policy relies on a fixed exchange rate system to guide the real exchange rate towards the short-term target inflation rate.

This system is appropriate for the Iraqi economy, as real output values ​​are linked to global prices due to the unilateral structure of the economy and the sharp decline in the contribution of non-oil exports to fixed capital formation.

Therefore, the fixed exchange rate system was a realistic option to avoid the erosion of the value of the dinar.

Due to the impact of external rent shocks, controlling foreign reserves (dollars, gold, and securities included on the asset side of the Central Bank's balance sheet as Iraq's external debt) has become an instrumental approach to managing the Central Bank's responses to the aforementioned shocks.

This involves regulating exchange rate fluctuations, targeting inflation rates. Inflation can rise and fall due to external rent shocks, leading to fluctuations.

Therefore, the Central Bank uses its reserves to sterilize the dinar's expansion through dollar purchases and sales, and cash transactions in the stock market, both buying and selling, to achieve the target exchange rate.

The movement of foreign reserves is linked to public spending on oil revenues in dollars after the Central Bank exchanges them for dinars to meet demand from the private and public sectors, as well as government and household purchases. Depending on the surplus and deficit in the balance of payments, reserves grow or shrink. When oil revenues rise, the central bank refrains from financing the budget deficit, and the government reduces its spending, aiming to raise foreign reserves to be used to finance the budget deficit when oil revenues decline again.

Foreign reserves witnessed a significant increase due to the positive shock in the second half of 2021, reaching 3.244 million barrels per day at an average price of $110 per barrel.

This increased Iraq's surplus in public finances and overall external balances, as reserves exceeded $90 billion, helping to stabilize the stabilization system and inflation targeting. However, with global oil prices heading towards a negative shock this year (2025) to less than $60 per barrel, and the Central Bank continuing its sterilization policies and measures towards international compliance, this led to a decline in reserves to less than $97 billion in March 2025, after having been around $105 billion in December 2024. Due to the recent shock, the Central Bank resorted to compensating by increasing its foreign exchange sales.

Therefore, in light of external rent shocks, we see the need for coordination between government policy and the Central Bank. From the government policy side, spending must be restricted to purely technical limits, thus deepening the reduction of the government deficit and strengthening the strategic role of reserves. Monetary policy must sustain its goal of achieving a stable inflation rate by managing the movement of the dollar exchange rate and demand for it in the interest of price stability and reducing costs in favor of rational spending policies.

Achieving low and stable inflation is an important factor in enhancing the local and foreign investment climate, which is linked to related economic policies, including commercial, agricultural, and industrial policies.

In short, the dependence of foreign reserve volatility on external shocks will remain a limiting factor in the national economy's ability to combat inflation and support the investment climate. Therefore, two levels of optimal solutions can be identified.

 The first, at the strategic level, involves sustained coordination between fiscal and monetary policies. The second, at the macro and structural level of the Iraqi economy, lies in addressing the rentier nature of the economy by gradually increasing the contribution of non-oil GDP to meet aggregate domestic demand, while supporting export diversification policies.   LINK

Iraq Economic News And Points To Ponder Thursday Afternoon 5-29-25

The Iraqi Dinar Is Recovering, While Markets Are Dying. An Economic Recession Is Hitting Kurdistan.
 
Baghdad Today – Kurdistan  With markets hushed and shelves increasingly empty, the Kurdistan  Region is experiencing economic stagnation despite signs of recovery in the rest of Iraq, with the dollar's exchange rate declining and the dinar's strength recovering.
 
While some provinces are breathing a sigh of relief, Kurdistan remains mired in a vicious cycle of mounting crises, with citizens seeing no sign of this apparent improvement.

The Kurdish street isn't asking about economic indicators, but about a missing salary, a lost job opportunity, and cash flow that has become as scarce as rain in a time of drought.
 
There's no dinar in hand, no dollar in pocket, just a long wait for a hope that may never come, and
suffering that deepens with every day that salaries are delayed and the circles of unemployment expand.
 
"The problem is not the exchange rate"
 
In this context, experts are increasingly warning that the crisis lies not in the exchange rate,
but rather in the absence of economic policies that ensure the benefits of the improvement reach citizens.
 
This was pointed out by economic expert Farman Hussein on Wednesday (May 28, 2025), who
asserted that the  Kurdistan Region remains outside the circle of economic recovery,
despite all the positive changes in the currency exchange rate.
 
Hussein told Baghdad Today, "Despite the decline in the dollar exchange rate and the recovery of the Iraqi dinar,  the markets in the Kurdistan Region have yet to benefit from this decline   and are still suffering from stagnation."

 He added,  "The region's problem lies in the lack of financial liquidity.
 
Citizens do not have dollars or dinars due to the non-payment of salaries, the scarcity of job opportunities, the high unemployment rate, and the weakness of banking transactions.
 
All of these factors lead to a lack of financial liquidity."
 
Variation in the Iraqi economic scene
 
For months, Iraq has witnessed a significant improvement in the value of the dinar against the dollar,
as a result of a series of government and banking measures aimed at  regulating the market and   controlling the flow of foreign currencies.
 
This has had a positive impact on  purchasing power in a number of governorates and has contributed to a  relative easing of economic pressures on Iraqi citizens.

However, this improvement was not comprehensive, as the Kurdistan Region remained in a state of marked economic recession,  despite the decline in the dollar's value.
 
The structural problems plaguing the region, most notably the crisis of delayed salaries, high unemployment rates, and  weak liquidity in the markets, prevented any real recovery that could be felt by citizens.    https://baghdadtoday.news/275159-.html

Sudan's Financial Advisor: Cooperative Hypermarkets Reduced Demand For The Parallel Dollar And Prevented A Rise In Inflation.
 
May 29, 2025  Baghdad/Iraq Observer  The Prime Minister's financial advisor, Mazhar Saleh, confirmed that the  hypermarket policy has effectively contributed to reducing demand for dollars on the parallel market,  which has had a positive impact on price stability.  

In a press statement, he explained that this policy helped prevent inflation rates from rising, keeping them within the 3% range, noting that the measures implemented have boosted market confidence.

He added that the  proliferation of hypermarkets has encouraged merchants to shift toward importing through official dollars instead of parallel currencies,  which has contributed to  regulating market activity and  financing foreign trade in a legal and stable manner.  https://observeriraq.net/المستشار-المالي-للسوداني-هايبر-ماركت/  

Association Of Private Banks: Most Of Our Banks Have Adhered To Transparency And Compliance Standards And Followed National And International Regulations.
 
Wednesday, May 28, 2025 | Economic  Number of readings: 168  Baghdad / NINA / The Iraqi Private Banks Association confirmed the ability of Iraqi banks to overcome this stage and return confidently to the global economic system.
 
"Our second conference is of exceptional importance in light of the escalating challenges facing Arab banks, particularly Iraqi banks, amid a complex economic and security environment that directly impacts our relations with the global financial system," said Wadih Al-Handhal, head of the Association of Private Banks, during the opening of the second session of the  Anti-Money Laundering and Combating the Financing of Terrorism Conference in Baghdad. 

He added, "Despite the recent measures imposed on some Iraqi banks, we affirm that these decisions do not reflect the reality of the sector.
 
The majority of banks have  demonstrated a high commitment to transparency and compliance standards and have followed approved national and international regulations.
 
Despite the challenges, they continue to play their role in   supporting the national economy and  enhancing financial stability." 

 He explained:  "These measures have  had a negative impact on the image of the Iraqi banking system as a whole and have  diminished the confidence of international partners,  even among institutions that are leaders in compliance and governance."
 

Al-Handhal stressed that "the Iraqi banking sector is witnessing major transformations, and the  Central Bank of Iraq, with direct government support, is currently implementing an ambitious reform plan aimed at   enhancing international confidence and  raising the sector's efficiency,
 
particularly in the areas of compliance and combating money laundering."  He continued,
 
"During the conference, we will discuss research papers and specialized opinions that seek to overcome challenges and consolidate compliance rules.
 
The conference topics include the
 
     challenges of opening accounts with correspondent banks,
     enhancing cooperation between Arab banks, the
     role of technology and artificial intelligence in
     supporting compliance, local and international legislation, and the
     role of central banks in consolidating sustainable compliance." / https://ninanews.com/Website/News/Details?key=1229496  

Parliamentary Finance: We Support Efforts To Develop The Iraqi Banking Sector And Are Following Up On The Required Legislation.
 
Wednesday, May 28, 2025 | Economic     Number of readings: 296  Baghdad / NINA / The Parliamentary Finance Committee affirmed its full support for efforts aimed at developing the Iraqi banking sector and its keenness to follow up on the legislation required to enhance Iraq's compliance with international standards. It also stressed the need to balance strict compliance with achieving economic growth goals,  supporting the private sector, and  facilitating investment.
 
“International regulatory obligations imposed on financial institutions,
particularly those related to combating money laundering and terrorist financing,
 
have become among the most prominent requirements that affect the nature of the relationship between local banks and their global counterparts,” 

said committee chairman MP Atwan Al-Atwani during the Anti-Money Laundering and Combating the Financing of Terrorism conference, which kicked off Wednesday in Baghdad.
 
“Fulfilling these requirements is a prerequisite for developing a safe and stable banking environment
capable of interacting positively with the global financial system.”

He added, "Iraq's engagement, represented by its national banks, in this international regulatory environment is not an option,  but rather a national necessity  to protect the financial system from cross-border risks and to ensure the continued flow of investments and capital,
 
which directly contributes to supporting economic and social development efforts and enhancing confidence in the national economy."

 He continued,  "Iraq has made significant progress on this path over the past few years, as the Iraqi banking system has witnessed major developments,
 
represented by the modernization of the legal and regulatory structure, the
issuance of instructions related to compliance and tightening oversight, and
work to build qualified banking cadres capable of dealing with these changes."
 
“We have seen the Central Bank of Iraq’s keenness to  adopt a reform and development approach, by imposing precise and updated instructions in line with international best practices, as well as its relentless efforts to enhance transparency and strengthen the system for combating money laundering and terrorist financing,” he added, noting
 
the importance of this conference, which constitutes an important platform for exchanging experiences and  reviewing the latest developments in international legislation, and highlighting the experiences of other countries in this field, especially with regard to  modern compliance techniques,  best methods of internal control, and    risk management.    https://ninanews.com/Website/News/Details?key=1229562
