Good Afternoon Dinar Recaps,

India Explains the Main Agenda for BRICS 2025 Summit

India becomes the first BRICS nation to publicly outline the summit's goals—signaling a coordinated push toward a multipolar world order and Global South leadership.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi is on a five-nation diplomatic tour ahead of the 17th BRICS Summit, set to take place in Rio de Janeiro on July 6–7, 2025. His final destination: Brazil, where leaders from the BRICS alliance will gather to discuss a new financial and geopolitical future.

For the first time, one of the founding BRICS nations has offered a public glimpse into the summit’s agenda, revealing a bold push toward a balanced multipolar world order—a system designed to reduce dependence on U.S. and Western financial structures.

“As a founding member, India is committed to BRICS as a vital platform for cooperation among emerging economies. Together, we strive for a more peaceful, equitable, just, democratic, and balanced multipolar world order,” said Modi in an official statement.

BRICS 2025: India’s Roadmap for a New Financial Era

India confirmed that key topics on the summit agenda will include:

• Reducing reliance on Western financial systems

• Increasing cooperation among developing economies

• Establishing a more democratic, accountable world order

• Strengthening the voice and financial power of the Global South

The announcement comes at a time when BRICS nations are expanding their roles in global finance, exploring non-dollar trade settlements, and advocating for institutional reform at the IMF, World Bank, and UN.

“The visit will provide an opportunity to strengthen our close partnership with Brazil, and work with my friend, President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, on advancing the priorities of the Global South,” Modi added.

A Multipolar Vision Gains Momentum

While India emphasized that BRICS is not inherently anti-U.S., the bloc seeks to build an alternative financial system that amplifies the sovereignty of member states. The alliance has made clear that it views financial diversification and mutual development as the cornerstone of global stability.

India’s rare move to disclose the summit’s main agenda underscores its leadership ambitions within BRICS and reflects the bloc’s growing desire for transparency and direction.

The summit in Rio is expected to draw global attention as BRICS continues to challenge the unipolar dominance of the West with its expanding influence, economic cooperation, and commitment to reshaping global governance.

How Trump & Bessent Are 'Re-monetizing Assets On US Balance Sheet'

How Trump & Bessent Are 'Re-monetizing Assets On US Balance Sheet'

Arcadia Economics: Tom Luongo:  7-2-2025

Back in February, Donald Trump and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent hosted a meeting, where Bessent said that over the next 12 months, they would be monetizing the assets on the US balance sheet for the good of the Anmerican people.

Well that was 5 months ago, and we've seen a lot of activity since then. So what did he mean, and what are they actually doing behind the scenes right now.

The world of economics and finance is often a realm of complex terminology and behind-the-scenes maneuvers. Every so often, a statement emerges that captures attention, hinting at a potential paradigm shift. One such declaration came earlier this year, setting the stage for an intriguing discussion now being unpacked by financial commentators.

According to an interview featuring Tom Luongo on Arcadia Economics with Chris Marcus, a significant meeting took place back in February involving former President Donald Trump and Scott Bessent, a name frequently mentioned as a potential future US Secretary of the Treasury in a new administration.

It was during this meeting that Bessent reportedly stated a bold intention: over the next 12 months, they would be “monetizing the assets on the US balance sheet for the good of the American people.”

Five months have passed since that pronouncement, and indeed, many observers point to a flurry of activity and evolving dynamics in the financial landscape. This raises crucial questions: What exactly did Bessent mean by “monetizing assets”? And what, if anything, are we seeing or can we infer about these potential actions behind the scenes?

At its core, “monetizing assets” means converting non-cash assets into cash, or otherwise making them available for current use.

For a national balance sheet, this could imply a range of strategies, from selling off government-owned properties or enterprises, to securitizing future revenue streams, or even leveraging less conventional financial tools against strategic national holdings. The phrase “re-monetizing” suggests a return to a prior state or a new approach to unlocking value from existing national wealth.

The critical distinction here is the stated purpose: “for the good of the American people.” This implies that any such monetization efforts would not merely be about debt reduction (though that could be a benefit), but potentially about funding new infrastructure, reducing taxes, stabilizing inflation, or generating new economic opportunities.

The notion that a future administration would actively seek to “re-monetize” the US balance sheet suggests a potential departure from traditional fiscal policy, where the focus is often on taxation, spending, and debt issuance. It points instead to a more active management of the nation’s underlying wealth.

This concept, as discussed by Luongo and Marcus, suggests a bold and potentially transformative financial strategy. Should such a plan come to fruition under a new Trump administrationn, it could have profound implications for the US economy, the value of the dollar, and the global financial system.

 It would signal an aggressive attempt to unlock latent value, potentially injecting liquidity and resources directly into the economy without solely relying on borrowing or taxation.

For a deeper dive into what this “re-monetization” might entail, what assets could be in play, and the potential implications, the full interview with Tom Luongo on Arcadia Economics provides further insights and context for those seeking to understand this potentially game-changing financial strategy.

The financial world, it seems, is bracing for an unconventional approach to managing the nation’s wealth.

Member: Good Morning Mark, MilitiaMan and Members

Member: Happy July 4th Eve!!!!!

Member: last night Frank26 had a guest on his video that said he heard on a late night news show that Trump said several countries will revalue their currencies on July 6 or 7.   Hope this is true

Member: Wish there was a copy of that announcement from Trump somewhere

Member: July 6 is Sunday….and all Iraqi banks are closed for a holiday on Sunday. hmmmmmmm

Member: and Frank now believes the VND is going to RV as well now. According to Frank, both the HCL and Article 12-2 are with the Counsel of Ministers for approval and oil is already flowing. Frank is all about not giving date/rate …..IHO Monday...

Member: I have said before, when the oil flows all goes golden

Member: My AI says its a near perfect match on how Kuwait did their rv this week and Sunday is the sweet spot …..fingers crossed

Member: FRFS will adopt the ISO 20022 message format for the Fedwire Funds Service in a single-day implementation strategy on July 14, 2025.

Member: That’s a big day coming: Basel 3 , iso20022…. all banks worldwide

Member: A mate called Bendigo bank here in AUS and asked if they were exchanging international currency, they grabbed the manager and said “not yet”. Then asked if he was referring to VND, and he said yes. They said they would be accepting that currency – they have the new rate- just waiting. This is exciting stuff.

MZ: That is awesome. This is the second bank story I have heard on this in the last 2 days.

Member: PNC bank sent me a text that said mobile and online banking will be unavailable on July 11, They are introducing new online banking. QFS?

MZ: We are finally starting to see it talked about.

Member: When r all currencies going to be asset backed?

Member: What if America’s return to gold and silver as legal tender isn’t just symbolic — but a full-blown rejection of fiat currency?

Member: With over 45 states recognizing gold and silver as money, are we witnessing the quiet collapse of the Federal Reserve's influence?

MZ: Top that off with Ripple seeking a banking license. This would give us many options outside the Federal Reserve system . If somebody like Utah goldbacks created a solid redeemable gold backed currency or crypto ….The federal reserve…stick it with a fork…it would be done. We would have a 100% asset backed money by “we the people”

Member: All the countries are at a fork in the road and must make the right choice or face a tough road IMO

​​Member: I think the RV's starting is based on several things: Iraq, BBB, peace treaties, etc.

Member: Mark has your contact on bonds said anything about where that person is in the process?

MZ: No new bond updates this morning.

Member: Just wondering, will you have a podcast like normal tomorrow with it being the 4th?

Trump has already (allegedly)  green-lighted the Global Currency Reset of 209 Nations to Gold/asset-backed currencies, which will be legally implemented upon his signature on the “Big Beautiful Bill” that has been passed by both the House and Senate. He plans to announce such on Fri. 4 July.

Wed. 2 July 2025: “The Big Beautiful Bill,” the (alleged) mechanics for the Global Currency Reset, has been passed by both the US House and Senate. It was expected to be signed by Trump on or before Fri. 4 July 2025. Charlie Ward: The Latest Important Announcement from Trump That You Can’t Avoid Missing | Prophecy | Before It’s News

On June 30, 2025, Governor Greg Abbott signed into law one of the most disruptive financial decisions in modern American history — gold and silver are now legal tender in Texas. This isn’t a bill for headlines. It’s a functional reset of what defines “money” in the Lone Star State, and the aftershocks are already being felt from Wall Street to Washington. For the first time in decades, physical precious metals — coins, bars, and even digitized holdings — can now be used by Texans for everyday purchases, business transactions, and debt settlements.

Restored Republic  (Rumors) 

Wed. 2 July 2025 BREAKING: MILITARY NESARA-GESARA GOES LIVE — 30+1 PROTOCOLS TO COLLAPSE THE OLD WORLD AND RESET HUMANITY …Trump Force One on Telegram

The silence is over. As of June 29, 2025, the hidden blueprint for humanity’s liberation has been activated. The military branch of NESARA-GESARA has (allegedly)  begun executing 31 classified protocols designed to erase debt, collapse globalist institutions, and transfer power back to the people. This is not a theory — it’s a controlled demolition of the old world.

Over $150 trillion in stolen wealth is(allegedly)   being reclaimed. Central banks are bleeding. The IRS is finished. The Federal Reserve is(allegedly)   being dismantled. And the quantum-ledger system is live, bypassing corrupt structures and executing financial justice in real time.

Protocol #1: All banking-related debts — including mortgages, loans, and credit cards — are being (allegedly)  wiped out, permanently. This is a reset, not a bailout. The system was illegal from the start.

Protocol #2: Income taxes are(allegedly)   being abolished. No more IRS raids, no more wage theft. In its place: a 14% flat tax on luxury items only. Food, medicine, housing — untaxed and protected.

Protocol #3: The IRS is (allegedly)  shut down. Its agents reassigned to oversee fair taxation under Treasury authority, not corporate fiat enforcers.

Protocol #4: The Federal Reserve is(allegedly)   gone. Its monopoly on money creation has ended. In its place: a gold, silver, and platinum-backed Rainbow Currency, immune to manipulation and printed theft.

Protocol #9: Financial privacy is restored. No more tracking, no more spying. Treasury-issued accounts under QFS cannot (allegedly)  be accessed by rogue agencies or foreign banks.

Protocol #11: Humanitarian funding is (allegedly)  being deployed. Global projects will be citizen-led, not NGO-controlled. Homelessness, food instability, and educational collapse are being addressed with real wealth and infrastructure.

Protocol #12: Redemption of stolen value. ZIM and other sovereign bonds will be honored. Portions for personal use, portions for global rebuilding.

Stay alert. The final phase to Liberate Humanity has begun.

Bruce   [via WiserNow]  They were supposed to have revalued the currency again, I believe they did, and it's at a decent rate on the screens, but it's currently on the back screen of the Forex...Now, if all goes according...that back screen IQD rate on the dinar will go and show itself on the front screen of the Forex... we had approximately 17 currencies on the front screens of the redemption centers, and those were fluctuating in value as trading is continuing between various currency trading pairs...we think there could be as many as 24 that are actually going to appear when we go in for our exchanges.   

Frank26   You've been with me a long time, what was it I said to you way back when dinosaurs were around?  I said the day you see the HCL, you see the new exchange rate...The moment you see the oil flowing and metered and registered and accounted for it would be with a new exchange rate...Oil is an amazing indicator right now in our investment of what's going on with the exchange rate of the Iraqi dinar.

Iraq Economic News and Points To Ponder Thursday Morning 7-3-25

Government Media: All Official Institutions Adopt Electronic Payment.

Money and Business  Economy News – Baghdad   The Government Media Team announced on Tuesday that all official institutions are now using electronic means to collect and process payments. It also indicated that executive authorities are monitoring the adoption of electronic systems in government agencies.

Government media spokesman Haider Majeed said, "Numerous Cabinet decisions and Prime Ministerial directives have been issued to all government institutions, in coordination with the Ministry of Finance and the Central Bank of Iraq, to ​​adopt the electronic payment system in all government departments and institutions.

" He explained that "this matter is among the priorities of the government program and ministerial approach, and the government's efforts to enhance transparency and simplify procedures provided to citizens."

He added, "The adoption of this system is based on the government's vision to develop the financial transactions environment and reduce reliance on paper money.

This will contribute to combating corruption and reducing the chances of financial manipulation, as well as facilitating the collection of funds from citizens and other companies and institutions."

He pointed out that "the electronic payment process offers many advantages, most notably simplifying procedures and accelerating transaction completion by reducing the time required to complete payments, enabling payments anytime, anywhere, and enhancing financial transparency and accountability through the presence and organization of an electronic database and record for each payment transaction."

He explained that "this helps limit the manipulation of funds entering the state treasury, reduces the risks of dealing in cash, and reduces the need to carry and circulate paper money, which can lead to damage, loss, or theft."

He emphasized that "electronic payment supports financial inclusion by encouraging citizens to open bank accounts, strengthening their bank accounts, using modern banking tools, enhancing the efficiency of government collection, increasing collection rates, reducing waste or financial leakage, and controlling the tax collection process."

He pointed out that "the General Secretariat of the Council of Ministers, as the executive body of the government and the executive arm of the Council of Ministers, is closely monitoring the implementation of this approach with all ministries, institutions, and governorates, as well as the implementation of decisions issued by the government, in cooperation with relevant authorities, to ensure the success of the implementation and the achievement of the desired objectives, which will positively impact the level of services provided to citizens."

He continued, "The government directives include all official institutions, all of which are currently working electronically to collect and collect money from citizens.

" He pointed out that "the government directive was also directed to all private sector entities, including public clinics, doctors' clinics, pharmacies, markets, stores, fuel stations, and all other entities that operate in direct contact with citizens through sales operations."

He pointed out that "there has been widespread acceptance by citizens in the final stages, which has encouraged all private sector entities to use electronic points of sale." 757 views   https://economy-news.net/content.php?id=56863

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

US and EU Talks Signal Acceleration Toward Global Crypto Policy Alignment

BRUSSELS – July 1, 2025 – In a major signal of growing transatlantic alignment, U.S. and European Union financial regulators have intensified coordination on digital asset policies, including stablecoins, crypto oversight, and central bank digital currencies (CBDCs). The announcement follows high-level discussions at the EU-U.S. Joint Financial Regulatory Forum, held June 24–25 in Brussels.

The talks, co-chaired by the U.S. Department of the Treasury and the European Commission, reflect a shared urgency to harmonize crypto regulation across jurisdictions amid the accelerating global adoption of digital finance.

Regulatory Convergence Gains Momentum

The U.S. Treasury noted that the meeting placed digital finance at the forefront, with regulators exchanging updates on key crypto priorities:

• The EU shared progress on the rollout of its Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) Regulation.

• Updates were provided on the development of the Digital Euro.

• The Financial Stability Board’s work on crypto risks and stablecoin oversight was also discussed.

• U.S. officials gave an update on SEC enforcement, crypto asset policy, and cybersecurity initiatives.

“Participants continued their exchange of views on digital finance matters,” the Treasury stated, highlighting a shared recognition of the need for coordinated oversight of the crypto sector.

Global Push for Secure Cross-Border Payment Systems

The Forum also emphasized the G20 Roadmap for Enhancing Cross-Border Payments, a key international effort to improve speed, cost, transparency, and accessibility of global financial transfers. EU regulators shared updates on the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA), while U.S. officials focused on infrastructure security and digital resilience.

The two sides appear to be converging on a cohesive framework that could guide the future of crypto regulation globally.

Balancing Innovation and Systemic Risk

Despite persistent skepticism over crypto volatility and regulatory loopholes, regulators from both continents acknowledged that greater policy coordination could enhance stability while avoiding regulatory arbitrage. Industry advocates continue to call for clear, interoperable rules that support innovation without undermining financial safeguards.

“This is a defining moment,” said a senior digital finance analyst. “We’re watching the foundations of a global crypto framework being laid brick by brick.”

As regulatory talks between the U.S. and EU deepen, the path toward mainstream crypto integration becomes clearer, signaling a potential standardization of global digital asset rules in the years ahead.

Ripple Boosts RLUSD Adoption With Embedded Finance and Payment Features

LONDON – July 2, 2025 – In a bold push to expand the real-world adoption of its enterprise-grade stablecoin, Ripple has partnered with financial infrastructure provider Openpayd to enable embedded finance and seamless fiat-to-stablecoin transactions through a unified global platform.

The move enhances Ripple USD (RLUSD) as a powerful bridge between blockchain-native payments and traditional fiat banking—paving the way for broader enterprise usage in cross-border payments and treasury management.

Ripple and Openpayd Launch Unified Fiat + Stablecoin Solution

Under the new partnership, Openpayd will embed its fiat infrastructure—including multi-currency accounts, virtual IBANs, and real-time payment rails—directly into Ripple Payments, Ripple’s flagship cross-border payment network spanning over 90 payout markets globally.

"Businesses will be able to seamlessly convert between fiat and RLUSD," Openpayd confirmed, "accessing embedded accounts, trading, and payment features through a single API."

One of the most important additions: direct minting and burning capabilities for RLUSD, allowing enterprises to scale their stablecoin use while remaining compliant and efficient.

Stablecoin Liquidity Meets Enterprise Needs

The integration makes it significantly easier for businesses to:

• Embed stablecoin functionality within their financial operations

• Send and receive EUR and GBP through Ripple’s global payment rails

• Streamline access to U.S. dollar liquidity using RLUSD

This builds on RLUSD’s core positioning as a trusted, compliant, USD-pegged stablecoin designed for high-volume enterprise use cases.

Jack McDonald, Ripple’s SVP of Stablecoins, emphasized the importance of cross-network utility:
“The future of global finance depends on seamless interoperability between traditional infrastructure and digital assets.”

Toward Scalable, Real-World Adoption

The collaboration comes at a time of mounting demand for real-time, stable, and globally interoperable financial infrastructure—especially as enterprises seek to modernize their treasury systems and cut the cost and friction of legacy banking networks.

“This is how we accelerate real-world adoption of stablecoins at scale,” said McDonald, highlighting Ripple’s long-term vision for RLUSD.

As Ripple continues to embed digital assets into traditional payment systems, this partnership offers a compelling blueprint for stablecoin-enabled embedded finance across both crypto and fiat worlds.

The commemoration continues until the Arbaeen pilgrimage, forty days after the Day of Ashura.   link

The bank added that "the decline was a result of repayments of loans to financial institutions, which reached $19 trillion and 119 billion, down from $19 trillion and 152 billion."

He pointed out that "the remaining debts are owed by the Ministry of Finance, amounting to 756 billion dinars, and treasury transfer debts at the Central Bank and commercial banks, amounting to 51 trillion and 30 billion dinars, in addition to treasury transfers on behalf of the Ministry of Finance amounting to 2 trillion and 30 billion dinars, and national term debts due to farmers amounting to 12 trillion and 568 billion dollars."  link

The Iraqi Private Banks Association noted the success of the basic requirements for implementing advanced standards in combating money laundering, based on the principle of knowing the customer and the sources of their funds.

In a press interview, Wadih Al-Handhal, head of the association, said, "The Central Bank of Iraq is moving forward in implementing compliance standards and enhancing financial inclusion in the banking sector. The Association of Banks also supports ongoing awareness-raising efforts on financial inclusion."

He added, "The Middle East and North Africa Financial Action Task Force (MENAFATF) has transformed Iraq from a grey zone to a monitoring zone, which is true evidence that Iraq has made significant progress in enhancing financial inclusion and combating money laundering and terrorist financing."

He explained, "The need for legal legislation still exists, and we must move forward in the field of human cadres training to keep pace with the rapid digital and technological transformation in the world."

Regarding the financial inclusion rates achieved by Iraq, Al-Handhal pointed out that, “according to international standards, the current financial inclusion rate in Iraq has exceeded 46% compared to previous years, which is a very significant progress with which we seek to achieve a rate of 90-95% in cooperation with the Central Bank in the near future.

Iraq Economic News and Points To Ponder Wednesday Afternoon 7-2-25

Iraqis Await The US Federal Reserve's Interest Rate Decision.

2025/07/02 Reading: 90 times  {Economic: Al Furat News} Iraq is closely monitoring the US Federal Reserve's upcoming interest rate decision amid expectations it will have a direct impact on the currency market and local investments.

In this context, economic expert Salah Nouri told Furat News, "The dollar's decline as a result of inflation or interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve usually prompts investors and central banks to seek safe havens such as gold."

He added, "The Central Bank of Iraq is in a good position in terms of its investments in gold," noting that "the bank's balanced policy is to diversify investments between gold and the dollar."

Nouri explained that "this investment diversification aims to protect the Iraqi economy from global market fluctuations," adding that "Iraq is carefully awaiting the Federal Reserve's decision, given its repercussions for its financial stability."   LINK

Al-Nusairi: The Central Bank Is Making Fruitful Efforts In The First Half Of 2025 To Achieve The Comprehensive Banking Reform Project.

Banks   Economy News – Baghdad   Economic and banking advisor Samir Al-Nusairi affirmed on Wednesday that the Central Bank's measures and efforts during the first half of 2025 were fruitful in implementing the objectives of the comprehensive banking reform project, in cooperation with the government and international consulting and auditing firms, particularly Oliver & Wyman, and the goals and initiatives of its third strategy for 2024-2026.

Al-Nusairi spoke about the challenges facing the Iraqi economy and the opportunities for reforming the banking sector within the government's framework, as well as the prospects of the Central Bank's future vision for the role of the banking sector in sustainable development.

 He also spoke about the efforts currently being made to activate and revolutionize productive economic sectors other than oil, to diversify sources of national income and achieve financial sustainability, and the role of the Central Bank in regulating foreign trade financing.

Completing infrastructure projects to achieve comprehensive digital transformation and expanding the use of electronic payment tools to achieve financial inclusion.

Al-Nusairi explained that opportunities for reforming and developing the banking sector in 2025 are based on the following objectives:
First: Developing the Iraqi banking system and its compliance with international banking and accounting standards.

Second: Enhancing citizens' confidence in the banking sector locally, and internationally recognizing its transparency, progress, and strict commitment to international standards, and gaining the trust of reputable correspondent banks to deal with it.

Third: Transforming banks to their primary function, which is financing and bank lending for development. Strengthening financial inclusion and increasing its current rate as planned.
Fourth: Banks that do not provide loans and banking facilities that contribute to development, as they are the lever of sustainable development, lose their meaning as banks, which requires a specific position from the Central Bank in 2025.

Fifth: Strengthening procedures and decisions to transition from a cash economy to a digital economy and withdrawing funds outside the banking cycle and bringing them into the banking system.

He pointed out that all the above objectives, although the period specified for their implementation according to the banking reform project and the Central Bank strategy ranges between (1-4 years), what was achieved in 2023 and 2024 until 6/30/2025 constitutes ambitious percentages as announced, which led to the evaluation and classification of banks based on their achievement of the planned objectives.

There are banks moving towards the required development and banks that still need an additional period of time to achieve the objectives, and there are troubled banks that are now making exceptional efforts from the Central Bank and the administrations of these banks to rehabilitate them. 881 views    https://economy-news.net/content.php?id=56859

The Association Of Private Banks To Nina: Iraq Has Made Significant Progress In Promoting Financial Inclusion...And These Are The Requirements For The Success Of International Standards.

Wednesday, July 2, 2025, | Economic Number of reads: 109  Baghdad / NINA / The Iraqi Private Banks Association confirmed: "Iraq has achieved significant progress in financial inclusion thanks to the Central Bank's commitment to implementing international standards."

The head of the association, Wadih Al-Handhal, said in a statement to the National Iraqi News Agency ( NINA ), that "the Central Bank of Iraq is moving forward in implementing compliance standards and enhancing financial inclusion in the banking sector, and the Banks Association also supports raising awareness of financial inclusion."

He explained that "the success of the basic requirements for implementing these standards and achieving advanced levels in combating money laundering depend on training specialized and qualified staff to use information and databases, based on the principle of knowing the customer and the sources of his funds."

He added: "The Middle East and North Africa Financial Action Task Force (MENAFATF) has transformed Iraq from a gray zone to a monitoring area, and this is true evidence that Iraq has achieved significant progress in enhancing financial inclusion and combating money laundering and terrorist financing," noting that "the need for legal legislation still exists, and we must move forward in training human cadres to keep pace with the rapid digital and technological transformation in the world."

Regarding the financial inclusion rates achieved by Iraq, Al-Handhal explained that, “according to international standards, the current financial inclusion rate in Iraq has exceeded 46% compared to previous years, which is a very significant progress with which we seek to achieve a rate of 90-95% in cooperation with the Central Bank in the near future.

The Arab Monetary Fund is also very satisfied with this rate and is following the growth of the banking sector. It considers Iraq to be implementing financial inclusion through a sound mechanism that has contributed to Iraq’s progress in ranking ahead of other countries.”/End   https://ninanews.com/Website/News/Details?key=1238746

Net Foreign Investment In Iraq Declines In 2024 And The First Quarter Of 2025.

Money and Business  Economy News – Baghdad  Data released by the Central Bank of Iraq showed that net foreign investment in Iraq recorded a deficit of $8 billion in 2024, due to net foreign investment outflows of $7.6 billion, in addition to Iraqi investments abroad amounting to $400 million.

For the first quarter of 2025, data indicates a continued negative trend, with net outward foreign investment from Iraq exceeding $1.1 billion. This figure is broken down into:

- Net outward foreign investment of $1 billion.
- Iraqi outward investments of $133 million, registering a 21% increase compared to the last quarter of 2024.

Despite a 36% decline in net outward foreign investment, the index remains in negative territory, according to Al-Abidi. This means that investments continue to leave Iraq rather than flow into it, reflecting the ongoing challenges facing the local investment environment.

Foreign direct investment—both inward and outward—plays a vital role in Iraq's balance of payments. Along with oil sales, it represents one of the primary sources of foreign currency. The higher the investment flows, the less pressure there will be on the local market's demand for dollars and other foreign currencies.

It's worth noting that the Iraqi government had previously announced attracting $63 billion in foreign investment over the past two years, but these figures were not actually reflected in the balance of payments data.

This is likely because these projects have not yet been completed or have not entered into actual financial implementation, meaning their monetary impact on the banking and financial system has been absent.  441 views  https://economy-news.net/content.php?id=56899

There's 1 Reason Rich Athletes Go Broke

There's 1 Reason Rich Athletes Go Broke

Cam Newton says there's 1 reason rich athletes go broke and he no longer makes $20M/year in 2025 — here's why

Moneywise   Tue, July 1, 2025

At the height of his career, Cam Newton, former NFL MVP and Carolina Panthers quarterback, says he earned roughly $20 million a year. However, in a recent video on his YouTube channel, Newton confessed he was making online content “to keep the lights on.”

Newton’s candid admission pulls back the curtain on a common struggle retired athletes face: managing money once the big paychecks stop.

He points to his own situation as “the No. 1 reason” why so many wealthy players end up broke, failing to scale back spending when their income takes a hit.

Here’s how untamed expenses can gobble up even eight-figure salaries.

Lifestyle creep

Newton insists he did a better job managing his money than the average athlete.

“I never really had a financial advisor, but I never really was a splurger either — still to this day,” the 36-year-old says.

Federal and state income taxes ultimately reduced his take-home pay to roughly $12 million a year. Newton estimates his annual expenses were between $5 and $6 million, leaving some room for savings and investments.

Although he no longer makes eight figures a year, he says his expenses have stayed more or less the same. Some of the big-ticket items draining his savings include private schools, home maintenance, alimony and luxury purchases.

“Those things never leave,” Newton says. “Your overhead never really changes.”

The problem Newton — and many other celebrity athletes — can struggle with is that when your income changes, your expenses have to change with it.

This rapid lifestyle inflation during prime earning years is one of the key reasons why even high-income families can struggle financially. Roughly 36% of consumers who earned $200,000 or more a year were living paycheck to paycheck, according to a PYMNTS survey.

The only way to avoid falling into that trap is to keep a tight lid on expenses, according to Newton. Cutting down on your monthly expenses is a good place to start, with insurance payments being one of the biggest cost culprits.

Historical Crashes and Resets by Miles Harris

The Crash that Crafted Modern Finance

Miles Harris:  6-18-2025

Of course, the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore, also known as Florence Cathedral or the Duomo, was constructed between 1296 and 1436.

Completed after the setting of this video and during Medici financed "renaissance." The imagery was important in setting the subject location in the thumbnail!

Regarding the loans to Edward III: Bell et al. in “Credit Finance in the Middle Ages: Loans to the English Crown 1272–1345” found that: “[Edward] did owe them [Bardi and Peruzzi] huge sums of money. But the true picture is more nuanced. First, when Edward issued a ‘stop’ on assigned payments from the Exchequer in May 1339, he specifically excluded those to the Bardi and Peruzzi.

Second, Edward never formally repudiated his debts and, even after the Bardi and Peruzzi had ceased to make significant advances to him, he continued to assign them sizeable repayments.

Between 1345 and 1348, after the Bardi had been dissolved, Edward paid over £23,000 to their representatives and he and his grandson Richard II continued to make occasional payments until the remaining debt was forgiven in 1391.

Third, the Bardi and Peruzzi had raised large sums of money from depositors in England, and both Edward and Richard protected them from legal proceedings brought by their English creditors.

The English kings seemed to have tried in good faith to repay the Florentine merchants, even at the expense of their own subjects.”

The Great Taking of 1350 & The Black Death

Miles Harris:  June 25, 2025

The Black Death (1347–1351) was a demographic catastrophe—but for Europe’s elites, it was also a windfall.

As half the population perished, immense wealth was left behind—unclaimed, contested, or vulnerable.

Rather than disappearing, this wealth was redirected upward. Across cities like Florence and Venice, mass death became elite opportunity. Merchant families, religious institutions, and even medical authorities seized the chance to rewrite rules, bypass wills, and capture estates.

What followed wasn’t just tragedy—it was consolidation. The plague triggered a great taking.

The Great Reset of 1351: Plague, Profit & the Rise of Oligarchic Capitalism

Miles Harris:  7-2-2024

The Black Death of the mid-14th century was not only a demographic catastrophe but a socio-economic turning point.

While some historians argue it led to better living conditions and a more mobile workforce, a closer examination reveals a darker trajectory: one that laid the groundwork for oligarchic capitalism through land consolidation, coercive labor laws, and expanding bureaucratic power.

This is the third video in a miniseries which chronicles the years from the financial crisis in the 1340s, to the Great Taking, to the Great Reset of 1351.
