Iraq Economic News And Points To Ponder Monday Evening 6-9-25

A US Report Praises Iraq's Economic Policy: "A Quiet Return To The Global Energy Arena."

Energy The American website International Policy Digest reported that Iraq is making a "quiet return" to the global energy scene, while questioning whether it can transform oil into sustainable economic influence while still facing "institutional fragility" and ongoing political volatility.

The report explained that Iraq is quietly recalibrating its energy diplomacy at a time when the global oil market is entering a new phase of volatility, shaped by shifting geopolitical alliances, demand trends, and the rapidly increasing priority of the transition to green energy.

The report noted that Iraq's recent agreements with China, India, and France indicate a strategic effort to diversify trade partnerships, allowing Baghdad to balance its economic future between Eastern and Western powers. However, it added, these deals reflect a larger dilemma: how to transform oil diplomacy into sustainable economic influence in a country that continues to face "institutional fragility" and ongoing political volatility.

The report considered that Iraq's heavy reliance on oil has made Baghdad vulnerable to global economic shocks, adding that Iraq's energy strategy has traditionally focused on exports to Western markets, and that ongoing political instability has led many Western companies to hesitate to invest in the long term.

To address this, Iraq has increasingly turned to Asia, and to a lesser extent, Europe, in its quest for economic stability and geopolitical importance, the report noted. China has rapidly emerged as Iraq's energy partner, importing 1.19 million barrels per day (bpd), representing a third of Iraq's oil exports despite not being formally part of the Belt and Road Initiative. Chinese corporate investments are cementing Beijing's role as another Asian power in energy diplomacy.

The agreement reflects a similar logic, demonstrating Chinese state-backed companies in Iraq's reconstruction while gaining long-term access to strategic goods.

However, as China consolidates its position through large-scale investments and control of commodities, another Asian power is gaining ground through a more aggressive form of energy diplomacy. India, now the world's third-largest oil consumer, is increasing its purchases of Iraqi oil, with its purchases from Iraq expected to exceed those from Saudi Arabia by 2024.

In addition to this Asian component, the report stated that Iraq's oil diplomacy with France adds a key European layer to Baghdad's diversification strategy, including through the agreement with TotalEnergies in 2023. It added that the two-year suspension of the agreement, followed by its resumption, confirms Baghdad's willingness to pursue deeper engagement with European stakeholders.
The report continued, "Most importantly, this agreement with the French also includes solar infrastructure, signaling the reality that the dominance of fossil fuels has an expiration date." Equally important, the French partnership demonstrates Iraq's desire to keep diplomatic doors open with the West, even as it expands eastward.

However, the report stated that Iraq's energy landscape continues to be shaped by powerful regional players, including Iran and Turkey. Turkey has leveraged its role in Iraq's electricity supply to exert political influence, but Baghdad's repeated failure to pay for Iranian energy has led to recurring power outages, giving Tehran significant leverage over Iraq's domestic stability.

After noting the often-complicated clash between Turkey's ambitions to become a regional energy corridor and Iraq's infrastructure constraints, the report explained that nowhere was this more evident than in the case of the Kirkuk-Ceyhan pipeline, a vital oil export artery that has been out of service since 2022. Legal disputes over Kurdish oil exports and revenues have complicated its re-operation, although bilateral negotiations may be making progress.

Thus, the report stated that within the broader context, Iraq's energy diplomacy appears simultaneously expansive and restrictive. On the one hand, Baghdad is expanding its economic base and diversifying its international partners, but on the other, its ability to implement a long-term political vision remains at risk due to internal divisions and external dependencies.

The report went on to explain that the Iraqi government's current five-year plan requires greater economic diversification, but without deeper structural reform, oil diplomacy risks becoming a short-term solution to governance failures.

However, the US report considered Iraq's advanced strategy to have significant weight, explaining that with the shift in global demand for oil and the geopolitical transformation of energy toward a multipolar system, mid-level producers like Iraq can play a significant role in shaping future energy dynamics.

He added that Baghdad's balancing policy of building relationships across Asia and Europe, while avoiding over-reliance on any one party, is part of a strategic hedging strategy. The success of this strategy hinges not only on its reliance on international engagement, but also on the country's ability to rebuild local institutions and policy infrastructure.

The report concluded by stating that "energy diplomacy in Iraq is about more than just barrels and buyers," explaining that it reflects a broader experience, and questioning whether the resource-rich but "politically fragile" country can turn economic need into geopolitical advantage.

He continued by saying that if Iraq succeeds, its emerging energy strategy could mark the beginning of a new chapter, one that relies not only on diversifying its buyers, but also on recalibrating its foreign policy. He explained that by courting both Eastern and Western powers, Baghdad is asserting itself not only as a passive source, but as an increasingly deliberate player in the future of global energy policy. https://economy-news.net/content.php?id=56158

Data showed Central Bank of Iraq The value of the issued currency, "printed" in Iraq Currently at its lowest level in a year.

This is the lowest value of Iraqi foreign exchange exports in two years, specifically since March 2024, when exports reached 98.3 trillion Iraqi dinars.

The value of Iraqi foreign exchange exports had risen to more than 100 trillion dinars from May 2024 until January 2025, before gradually declining to below 100 trillion dinars. LINK

Clare: Expert: There is no "depreciation" in the value of the Iraqi currency issued.

June 9, 2025 Baghdad

Mustafa Hantoush, a financial and banking expert, denied the existence of a “depreciation” in the value of the Iraqi currency, noting that the state and the Central Bank are striving to create a balance for the Iraqi currency.

Hantoush told the Iraq Observer, “Over the past three years, Iraq has printed approximately 15 trillion dinars, in addition to hoarding foreign currencies, as it printed large quantities of currency backed by international reserves such as dollars and gold.” He added, “These amounts are approximately 200 trillion to 198.5 trillion Iraqi dinars. These amounts do not constitute a decrease or a significant decline, but rather an attempt to create a balance. When the state withdraws quantities of damaged currency, it does not reprint any of them.”

He continued, “In return, a quantity of funds is released from the US Federal Reserve and other banks, or the state reserves the ability to print quantities of currency in the coming months to compensate for the existing shortage.”
The amount of printed currency is an indicator of the level of demand for money in the economy, but it is also a tool for the central bank to control inflation and the exchange rate, especially in a country like Iraq, which relies heavily on the dollar for its daily transactions and faces challenges in regulating the money market.

Clare: Iraq bans cash payments at government institutions and begins restructuring state banks.

6/9/2025

Saleh Salman, the Prime Minister's financial advisor, announced that the government will begin implementing a comprehensive ban on cash payments within government institutions starting early next month, as part of its efforts to enhance financial inclusion and governance.

Salman said in a press statement that "the government has appointed the global consulting firm Ernst & Young to prepare a plan to restructure six to seven state-owned banks," noting that "the plan will be presented to the government for approval before the end of this year."

He added, "Iraq has made significant progress in adopting electronic payment systems, with the number of bank accounts increasing to approximately 22 to 23 million," noting that "Baghdad is currently cooperating with approximately 30 foreign banks, reflecting an improvement in the confidence of international financial institutions in the Iraqi banking sector."

Clare: Iraq announces Major Banking Sector Overhaul

7th June 2025 By Padraig O'Hannelly.

Iraq is embarking on a comprehensive restructuring of its banking sector with the assistance of leading international consultancy firms, according to Dr Salih Salman, Advisor to the Iraqi Prime Minister, speaking at the Iraq Britain Business Council (IBBC) Spring Conference in London on Tuesday.

The Iraqi government has appointed Ernst & Young to restructure six of the country's seven state-owned banks, including the Industrial Bank, Real Estate Bank, Rafidain Bank, and Rasheed Bank.

The Trade Bank of Iraq (TBI) has separately engaged K2i and KPMG to help restructure its internal and external operations to meet international standards.

Dr Salman revealed that Rafidain Bank, Iraq's largest state-owned institution, will be reincarnated as the First Rafidain Bank with government participation reduced to less than 24 per cent. The remaining shares will be offered to private banks and international investors. The restructuring plan is expected to be finalised and approved by the Iraqi government by the end of the year.

The private banking sector is also undergoing reform following a contract signed between the Central Bank of Iraq (CBI) and Oliver Wyman. This two-to-three-year project will result in recommendations for private banks to either exit the sector, comply with international standards, or merge with other institutions.

Iraq has made significant progress in electronic payment systems adoption, with financial inclusion rising from less than 10 percent in 2018-2019 to approximately 40 percent currently. The number of debit and credit card points of sale (POS) has reached 60,000-70,000, whilst bank accounts have grown to 22-23 million.

From June 2025, all government payments will be made electronically, with cash payments prohibited across government institutions. The Iraqi government has launched awareness campaigns to encourage public adoption of electronic payment systems, moving away from the traditional cash-based culture.

The government has also introduced the Riyada programme, operated in partnership with the Central Bank of Iraq, to provide financing and training for small and medium enterprises. The initiative offers a registration platform where participants can access training and potential financing opportunities.

Dr Salman emphasised that Iraq remains open to foreign investment and international consultancy services across all sectors, including legal, financial, accounting, auditing, and compliance services. The reforms aim to integrate Iraqi banks into the global financial system after decades of isolation due to sanctions and frozen assets.

Since November 2022, all bank transfers in Iraq have been processed through a Central Bank platform in cooperation with the Federal Reserve of the United States, marking Iraq's re-entry into global financial systems. The country now works with approximately 30 overseas banks, though challenges remain in opening international banking relationships.

The comprehensive banking reforms represent a significant shift towards international standards and greater private sector participation in Iraq's financial sector. LINK

Clare: Iraq joins the club of advanced countries in electronic payments with 22 million bank cards

6/9/2025

Nabil Al Najjar, head of the electronic payments team, announced that Iraq has become one of the most advanced countries in this field, thanks to decisive government decisions and support from the Central Bank and the financial sector. He noted that the number of bank cards has exceeded 22 million, and that their usage is constantly increasing, with intensive efforts to deploy electronic payment devices throughout the country.

Al-Najjar said in a press statement, "The electronic payment project was not a spur-of-the-moment project. Rather, it was the result of prior preparations that paved the way for Iraq's advancement in this field, despite its late entry, like the rest of the world. However, today we are among the advanced countries that use electronic payment tools."

He explained that the success of this project depended on two key factors: desire and decision-making, adding, "The government's desire came in 2023, specifically on January 18, with a decision to transform Iraq's economic front from a paper-based cash system to an electronic payments system. Thus, we began gradually."

He pointed out that the first experiment to impose the use of electronic payment was at gas stations, saying, "The first experiment was on a single day in June 2023, regarding the issue of forcing gas stations to use electronic payment tools. We certainly encountered problems at first. The project is new and faces many challenges."

He pointed out that "the will was vested in the Central Bank of Iraq and the financial sector as a whole—banks and electronic payment companies, which have contributed significantly to shifting the economy from cash to cashless."

He continued: "The number of cards, according to the statistics available to us, has exceeded 22 million, and thus this number is constantly increasing. The coming days will witness a higher rate of increase, given that on July 1, cash will no longer be accepted at all state institutions. While cash is currently available, it will be available in its entirety, including at gas stations."

Regarding card usage, Al-Najjar explained that "the number of cards in use exceeds 17 to 18 million, and the situation is on the rise. We're talking about more than 40% of citizens using electronic payment tools, and the coming days will witness further change."

In this context, Al-Najjar announced a new campaign to spread the culture of electronic payment, saying, "I announce that the "We Will Reach You" campaign, which was launched on January 11, 2025, will be available in the coming days, at the beginning of next month or the end of this month. We will be present in the Kurdistan Region to spread the culture of electronic payment widely."

He explained that Iraq is striving to achieve global standards in this field, saying, "The global system speaks of one POS device for every 37 citizens. Today, in Iraq, we are striving to reach this point by deploying POS devices in shops, large and small markets, and even among kiosk owners."

He pointed out that "electronic payment companies are trying to make these devices available and encourage their use by citizens through loyalty programs launched by companies and banking institutions."

Regarding the situation in the Kurdistan Region, Al-Najjar said: "Today, the Kurdistan Region has entered the localization phase, so the POS deployment phases will be faster and more acceptable to the public, given that they have already gone through this experience in previous phases, but today it is becoming widespread."

He explained that the devices are often distributed free of charge, and that sometimes a small insurance fee of no more than 200,000 to 300,000 dinars is imposed, which is refunded when the device is returned without defects.

Al-Najjar considered Halabja Governorate to represent a strategic launch for the "We Reach You" campaign, explaining: "Today, Halabja Governorate is a new Iraqi governorate. We used to have 18 governorates, now we have 19. Therefore, our people in the Kurdistan Region have a significant share of the electronic payment culture."

Al-Najjar confirmed that this campaign is being directly sponsored by the Central Bank of Iraq and supported by several financial institutions, including the Bank of Baghdad, the Development Bank, Arab Bank, K-Card, Rafidain Bank, Al-Saqi Bank, Bank of the South, Amwal Bank, Al-Ahli Bank, and others.

He concluded his remarks by pointing out that "banking financial institutions and electronic payment companies are sparing no effort to motivate citizens through loyalty programs, under the direct supervision of the Central Bank of Iraq, the Payments Department, the Financial Inclusion Division, and other relevant departments, with the goal of delivering financial services directly to citizens."

We used to have 18 governorates, now we have 19. Therefore, our people in the Kurdistan Region have a significant share of the electronic payment culture."

When it comes to estate planning, a family home can be among the most valuable—and complicated—assets to pass down. It's natural to want to see a cherished home stay within the family, but you'll want to think about not only your own needs and wishes but also those of your heirs.

For example, your child may love the family home and all the memories that go with it, but do they actually want to live there? If you have multiple heirs, is it realistic for them to co-own the property, or will such an arrangement create conflict?

3 Ways to Pass Down a Home

April 15, 2025 Austin Jarvis

The pros and cons of different methods for leaving a home to your heirs.

You also need to consider the role the house will play in your later years. Do you plan to stay in the home, or is it possible you may move at some point? All of this factors into how—and whether—you transfer the property to your kids.

With that in mind, here are three ways to pass along a home to your heirs—both during and after your lifetime—while also potentially lowering your tax bill and avoiding unexpected costs to your heirs.

1. Sell It

If you're looking to move or put your home's equity to use elsewhere, selling the home to a child or other heir could be a good option. Doing so removes the property from your taxable estate and establishes a new cost basis—meaning the capital gains on any future sale will be calculated using the value of the home on the date of the transfer rather than your original purchase price.

Although you might be tempted to sell the home at a low price, be careful not to go below its fair market value. Otherwise, the difference between the sale price and the market value could be subject to gift taxes.

2. Gift It

As generous as it is to gift a home to an heir during your lifetime, it could have negative tax repercussions. That's because such a gift counts toward your lifetime gift tax exemption. That might not seem like an issue now that the combined estate and lifetime gift tax exemption is $13.99 million for individuals ($27.98 million for married couples) in 2025, but that number is set to come down by half starting in 2026.

Unless Congress extends the limitations, such a gift could result in a federal estate tax of up to 40%, depending on the size of your estate. State-level gift, estate, and inheritance taxes could also be a factor, depending on where you live.

The tax consequences could be even more severe for your heirs, especially if you give your home to your child while you're alive—such as through a deed transfer. If your child decides to sell the home, the cost basis will be calculated using your original purchase price, potentially increasing the capital gains.

3. Pass It Down

Generally speaking, there are three methods for leaving a home to your heirs:

This is Peak of the Mania, Big Bubble to Burst as Dollar Fails

This is Peak of the Mania, Big Bubble to Burst as Dollar Fails

David Lin: 6-8-2025

In a recent interview with David Lin, Peter Schiff, Chief Economist & Global Strategist at Euro Pacific Asset Management, doubled down on his long-held bearish stance on Bitcoin, arguing that the cryptocurrency is experiencing “peak mania” and is poised to burst in a spectacular fashion.

Schiff also predicted the demise of the US dollar, emphasizing gold’s enduring value as a safe haven asset.

This is Peak of the Mania, Big Bubble to Burst as Dollar Fails

David Lin: 6-8-2025

Schiff also predicted the demise of the US dollar, emphasizing gold’s enduring value as a safe haven asset.

Schiff drew parallels between the current Bitcoin frenzy and the mortgage crisis of the 2000s, suggesting that both are fueled by speculative bubbles based on faulty premises. He argued that Bitcoin’s purported value proposition as a decentralized and scarce currency is fundamentally flawed.

Schiff questioned the underlying utility of Bitcoin, arguing that it lacks the inherent value of tangible assets like gold. He criticized Bitcoin’s volatility and transaction fees, arguing that they make it impractical for everyday use. He also dismissed the notion that Bitcoin can serve as a hedge against inflation, pointing to its price fluctuations that are often correlated with the stock market.

While dismissing Bitcoin, Schiff championed gold as the ultimate store of value and a reliable hedge against economic uncertainty and currency debasement. He argued that unlike cryptocurrencies which rely on technological infrastructure and complex algorithms, gold has intrinsic value based on its scarcity, durability, and historical role as a medium of exchange.

Schiff also expressed significant concerns about the future of the US dollar, predicting a period of prolonged inflation and a potential decline in its global reserve currency status. He attributed this to the Federal Reserve’s easy money policies and the unsustainable levels of government debt.

He argued that the combination of inflation and a weakening dollar will further strengthen the case for gold as a safe haven asset. He advised investors to diversify their portfolios with gold to protect their purchasing power and preserve wealth in the face of economic turmoil.

In conclusion, Peter Schiff’s commentary painted a bleak picture for Bitcoin and the US dollar, while simultaneously highlighting the enduring appeal of gold as a reliable store of value. His warnings about the “peak of the mania” in Bitcoin and the potential demise of the dollar are likely to resonate with investors seeking to navigate the increasingly volatile and uncertain economic landscape.

Whether his predictions prove accurate remains to be seen, but his perspective offers a stark contrast to the often-unbridled optimism surrounding cryptocurrencies and provides a valuable counterpoint in the ongoing debate about the future of money.

Thurs. 29 May 2025: REVEALED: THE SAINT GERMAIN TRUST — TRILLIONS UNLEASHED TO DESTROY THE FIAT EMPIRE …JFK Awakening Q17

FOR DECADES, THEY BURIED IT. NOW IT’S RISING. Behind every lie about “economic growth” was a truth they feared: a planetary trust fund, backed by hard gold, not fiat, created to liberate humanity after centuries by central banks, tax fraud, and war-for-profit systems.

The Saint Germain Trust was designed to trigger NESARA in the U.S. and GESARA globally — laws the deepstate mocked, smeared, and sabotaged. But these aren’t fantasies. They are blueprints. And they are being activated.

ITS MISSION ISN’T AID — IT’S RETRIBUTION.
Cancel national & personal debt
Fund monthly stipends — not UBI, but restoration
Back USTN with gold through QFS
Dismantle central banks & IRS foreign taxation
Unleash med beds, healing tech, clean energy
Finance a sovereign planet — not governed by the WEF or IMF, but by WE THE PEOPLE

WHY DID THEY HIDE IT? Because the minute this trust goes live, their power evaporates. The Fed, IMF, Vatican Bank, BIS — all exposed, all looted, all falling.

THE LOCK IS BREAKING — AND THE TIMELINE IS MOVING

Watch for the signs: BlackRock’s collapse. Executive Order 13848 seizures. USTN notes issued with serial match. ISO 20022 quietly integrated across global banks. Vatican forced to disclose gold holdings. This is not random. This is a coordinated dismantling of the old world system.

WE ARE INSIDE THE ACTIVATION WINDOW Stipends. Debts wiped. QFS live. Fiat systems crashing. These aren’t “coming soon.” They’re already shadow-deployed — waiting for full reveal under military command.

They tried to steal the trust. They failed. They tried to shut down QFS. They failed. They tried to rewrite the future. They FAILED. NOW THE PEOPLE WIN.

This isn’t charity. It’s vengeance. And it’s not just money. It’s the END OF THEIR EMPIRE.

Final message: You were never supposed to own land. Or retire. Or be free. But now you will — because you took it back.

ETF ISSUERS PUSH SEC TO RESTORE ‘FIRST-TO-FILE’ APPROVAL PROCESS—CRITICIZE REGULATORY DELAYS ON STAKING & ALTCOIN ETFS

A group of leading ETF firms is urging the SEC to return to the “first-to-file” approval model, claiming the current system undermines innovation and rewards passive behavior.

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

ETF ISSUERS PUSH SEC TO RESTORE ‘FIRST-TO-FILE’ APPROVAL PROCESS—CRITICIZE REGULATORY DELAYS ON STAKING & ALTCOIN ETFS

A group of leading ETF firms is urging the SEC to return to the “first-to-file” approval model, claiming the current system undermines innovation and rewards passive behavior.

VanEck, 21Shares & Canary Capital Fire Back at the SEC

📨 ETF issuers VanEck, 21Shares, and Canary Capital have submitted a formal letter to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) calling for a reinstatement of the first-to-file approval system for ETFs.

🔍 Their main arguments:

Skipping the queue discourages innovation
Delays stifle investor choice
The current system hurts competition

“The reduced incentive for pioneering product development… compromises market efficiency and fundamentally undermines the commission’s mission.”

They also warned that regulatory inconsistency may cost the U.S. its leadership in financial innovation.

Crypto ETF Momentum Grows Under Trump Administration

Since President Trump’s inauguration, there has been a noticeable surge in crypto ETF applications, reflecting growing expectations for a more favorable regulatory climate.

Yet, despite increased activity, SEC delays are widespread.

SEC Slow-Walks Approval on Staking & Altcoin ETFs

Staking and altcoin ETF filings have multiplied — but so have SEC postponements.

Notable delays include:

Grayscale’s spot Solana ETF – Now pushed to October
Staking and XRP ETFs – Delayed with no early approvals expected

Analyst Insight:

“Almost all of these filings have final due dates in October. Early decisions are out of the norm.” — James Seyffart, Bloomberg ETF Analyst

📉 Even REX-Osprey’s staked ETF products, which had effective registration statements, were halted due to SEC concerns over fund structure — dimming expectations for near-term launches.

Why It Matters

With institutional interest booming and crypto markets expanding, regulatory clarity and efficiency are now mission-critical.

Returning to a transparent and orderly “first-to-file” process could:

Reinvigorate innovation
Restore trust among issuers
Accelerate broader crypto ETF adoption

Final Thought

As crypto ETFs evolve into a pillar of digital asset investing, the SEC’s next moves could define U.S. market leadership for years to come.

Ripple Launches Japan-Focused Web3 Program Backed by JETRO

Ripple teams with Web3 Salon to fund XRPL-based innovation in Japan—grants up to $200K, major events planned through 2026, and a bold push to accelerate real-world Web3 adoption in Asia.

Ripple Backs Japan’s Web3 Startups with Grants and Mentorship

Ripple is expanding its footprint in Asia with a dedicated initiative to support Web3 startups in Japan, in partnership with Web3 Salon, a program powered by Asia Web3 Alliance Japan and supported by JETRO (Japan External Trade Organization). The new program is designed to drive real-world development on the XRP Ledger (XRPL) by equipping Japanese entrepreneurs with capital, technical mentorship, and regulatory guidance.

▪️ Ripple & Web3 Salon will award up to $200,000 per startup

▪️ Program backed by Ripple’s Japan & Korea Fund

▪️ Four major events planned across Japan through March 2026

$200K Grants to Fuel XRPL Innovation in Japan

At the core of the program is Ripple’s Japan & Korea Fund, part of its broader $1 billion commitment to the XRP ecosystem announced in 2022. Japanese startups building solutions in DeFi, tokenized real-world assets (RWA), and digital payments on the XRPL are eligible to receive grants of up to $200,000.

Along with capital, startups will gain access to Ripple’s global investor and advisor network, offering early-stage founders strategic advantages in funding, business development, and scaling.

Mentorship & Market Strategy Led by Web3 Salon

While Ripple drives capital support and network access, Web3 Salon will take the lead on founder mentorship, compliance support, and go-to-market readiness. In a country with stringent but transparent crypto regulations, this collaboration is positioned to help startups navigate legal complexities and build sustainable, regulation-ready ventures.

Four Major Events Planned Through Early 2026

Ripple’s regional strategy is also reinforced through an ambitious event roadmap. Community leader WrathofKahneman confirmed that this initiative aligns with Ripple’s long-term expansion in Asia.

From now through March 2026, Ripple and Web3 Salon will co-host four major events in Japan, featuring:

Pitch competitions
Policy and regulatory panels
Investor networking
Web3 workshops and education

These events are designed to accelerate ecosystem growth and encourage collaboration among developers, policymakers, and enterprise partners.

Japan’s Web3 Opportunity: Clarity Meets Innovation

With its tech-savvy market, supportive institutions, and clear regulatory structure, Japan is uniquely positioned to become a Web3 powerhouse in Asia. Ripple’s strategic alignment with JETRO-backed Web3 Salon represents an institutional push to remove entry barriers for blockchain innovators.

As Ripple continues to invest in foundational technologies and ecosystems, Japan could emerge as a regional leader in real-world blockchain adoption—powered by the XRP Ledger.

BRICS: 50+ Nations Now Use Yuan, Rupee, Ruble—Not US Dollar in Trade

BRICS-led de-dollarization deepens as over 50 countries shift to local currencies in energy and defense sectors, replacing dollar-based trade systems with yuan, rupee, and ruble.

BRICS Powers Global Shift Away from US Dollar

A global financial shift is accelerating as over 50 nations now conduct trade in yuan, rupee, and ruble, especially within oil and defense sectors, reducing reliance on the U.S. dollar. BRICS nations are at the center of this transformation, using currency trade agreements and new payment infrastructures to bypass the petrodollar system.

India and Russia Drive the Local Currency Trade Boom

The strategic cooperation between India and Russia has shown that local currency settlements are not only viable but efficient. India continues to buy Russian oil using rupees, directly paying energy giant Rosneft without the traditional SWIFT-based, dollar-centered mechanisms.

In defense trade, Russia supplies nearly 66% of India’s military imports, and these deals are increasingly settled in yuan, rupee, or ruble. Bilateral agreements have made national currency transactions standard, demonstrating that large economies can shift away from the dollar without friction.

India–Russia trade surged from $13B in 2021 to $27B in 2022—largely due to local currency payments.

Saudi Arabia Joins the De-Dollarization Movement

Saudi Arabia, long seen as a pillar of the petrodollar system, is now engaging in currency swaps with China and discussing yuan-based oil settlement mechanisms. This marks a historic turning point in global energy markets.

Russian President Vladimir Putin emphasized this shift during the BRICS Summit in Kazan:

“The dollar is being used as a weapon. We really see that this is so. I think that this is a big mistake by those who do this.”

Commonwealth Nations Embrace National Currencies

The Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) has reached an advanced stage of de-dollarization: over 85% of cross-border trade within the bloc now uses local currencies, directly reflecting the BRICS influence in shaping regional currency practices.

Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva also criticized dollar hegemony, stating:

“Resorting to unilateralism undermines the international order… the consistent defense of multilateralism is the only path we must follow.”

BRICS Pay and Dollar-Free Infrastructure Expansion

To facilitate this growing currency shift, BRICS is rapidly developing BRICS Pay, a payment system that supports multinational trade in local currencies. While a single unified BRICS currency remains under discussion, BRICS Pay already allows seamless transactions outside the dollar system.

This infrastructure also helps countries circumvent sanctions while maintaining legal trade, contributing to the ongoing decline of petrodollar dominance.

Over 50 nations are now engaging in non-dollar trade across key sectors—marking a turning point in the global financial order.

Why Some People Get Rich and Others Can’t Seem To, According to Ramit Sethi

Karen Doyle Sun, June 8, 2025 GOBankingRates

Ramit Sethi — entrepreneur, best-selling author of “I Will Teach You to Be Rich,” host of the popular podcast by the same name, and star of Netflix’s “How to Get Rich” — has spent years studying what sets the wealthy apart from others.

In his study of success, Sethi’s insights reveal why some people build lasting wealth while others struggle to get ahead.

Why Some People Get Rich and Others Can’t Seem To, According to Ramit Sethi

Karen Doyle Sun, June 8, 2025 GOBankingRates

In his study of success, Sethi’s insights reveal why some people build lasting wealth while others struggle to get ahead.

Here are the important reasons Sethi believes some people get rich and others don’t.

Get Stuck or Get Successful

What he has learned is that some people get stuck instead of getting rich. They spin their wheels, stuck on the same problem for years. The people who get rich, on the other hand, look for solutions to the specific problem they are facing.

This is not to say that those who stay stuck aren’t trying. In fact, they are trying new things all the time — a new morning routine, new productivity apps, a get-rich-quick scheme, even new foods or a different diet. But these are not the things that will get you unstuck, according to Sethi. There’s only one thing that will do that.

Mental Mastery

The secret, according to Sethi, is mental mastery. Or, as he calls his program, Mental Mastery. Sethi developed this program after he surveyed a large group of successful people to learn how they did it. He grilled them on how they navigated career moves, learned from bosses — good and bad — and ultimately built successful businesses.

There are four components to mental mastery, and Sethi explains what they are and why you need them.

Unshakeable Confidence

Sethi found that successful people exhibit unshakeable confidence. They believe in themselves, and they truly believe they can do whatever they want. They believe they are entitled to their success.

Unwavering Focus

They demonstrate unwavering focus, another requirement for the mental mastery that leads to success. Sethi recommends that you maintain a laser focus on what you want and forget all distractions. Believe that nothing can stand in your way.

Motivation

Those who have mental mastery are unstoppable when it comes to motivation. His program teaches you how to attain the energy and excitement needed to do exactly what you want, at the time you want to do it.

Tishwash: Iraq joins the club of advanced countries in electronic payments with 22 million bank cards.

He noted that the number of bank cards has exceeded 22 million, and that their usage is constantly increasing, with intensive efforts to deploy electronic payment devices throughout the country.

Tishwash: The Ministry of Finance completes the 2025 budget schedules, and Al-Kadhimi warns: It must reflect the economic reality and the decline in oil prices.

The Ministry of Finance is moving toward completing final preparations for the 2025 budget schedules within the next few days. Meanwhile, parliamentary finance committee member Moeen Al-Kadhimi stressed the need for these schedules to reflect the current economic reality, especially in light of the decline in oil prices.

Al-Kadhimi explained in a statement followed by (Al-Mada) that "the schedules the ministry is working on are routine and were prepared according to a mechanism that has been followed for a long time," adding that it is likely that "they will be presented to the Finance Committee after the Eid al-Adha holiday, where they are expected to be reviewed in a single session during which recommendations will be presented and ratified by Parliament."

He explained that "the House of Representatives has the authority to reduce financial allocations without increasing them," adding that "the Finance Committee intends to use this right to control the size of public spending and align it with available resources."

He pointed out that "the 2023 budget amounted to 199 trillion dinars, but the actual expenditure did not exceed 146 trillion dinars. As for 2024, the budget was estimated at 211 trillion dinars, while only 156 trillion dinars have been implemented so far."

Al-Kadhimi stressed that "the 2025 budget schedules must be more realistic and based on actual revenues, not estimates," emphasizing "the need to take into account the financial challenges associated with declining oil revenues, while achieving a balance between the requirements of ministries and the aspirations of governorates, on the one hand, and the government's actual ability to finance, on the other." link
