Iraqi Dinar Update: Comments About The Latest Financial Moves By The CBI
I didn’t think I would be doing another Iraqi Dinar update. But there’s so much going on at the moment that I need to speak on it.
But there are many concerns out there. One being the deletion of the 3 zeros project. And this needs to be addressed.
Listen, because this Iraq dinar play just got a notch tighter in the last 24 hours. Out of Baghdad, the Central Bank dropped a confirmation yesterday afternoon that they’re full throttle on the delete zeros push, calling it a “historic reform” that’s already got their internal simulations locked and loaded.
No more whispers; the governor straight-up said it’s not hype, it’s happening, with a gradual rollout to keep the streets calm while they recalibrate the whole damn system.
That lines up with what I’ve been laying out along with others, their oil pipelines pumping record crude straight into vetted accounts, no skimming allowed.
But here’s the thing they’re eyeing a basket peg that leans heavy on gold and euro flows, not just petrodollars, which means external holders like you & me stateside won’t get clipped by the in-country note swap.
Now, flip to the militia side, and Sudani’s office leaked a quiet nod to the PMF integration hitting 20,000 more fighters folded in since last week, all under state payroll to choke off those rogue cash lines.
Public wires are buzzing about it tying into the US drawdown by ’26, but the real heat is in the backroom arm-twists: top brass from Kataib Hezbollah and Nujaba got relocation packages disguised as “retirement incentives,” pulling them out of the game without a full firefight.
This clears the deck for the CBI to move without proxy interference, feeding those billions back into reserves that back our 3.00 s**t at this Look into those PMF brigade audits; they’re the smoking gun showing how much militia grease used to siphon oil royalties before this clampdown.
Treasury’s grip hasn’t loosened one bit, with fresh whispers from their Dubai outpost that two more Iraqi banks got flagged for Iran reroutes just hours ago, locking them out of dollar rails effective immediately. That’s on top of the 24 already scrubbed clean, forcing every transaction through their oversight channels like a sieve.
No headlines yet because it’s all off-record handshakes, but it enforces that repayment structure Trump hammered home, turning Iraq’s rebuilt grid into a cash machine that owes America first.
Point is, watch the Federal Reserve’s quiet filings on Iraqi correspondent accounts; the drops there tell you exactly how many conduits got severed overnight.

Mnt Goat ...everything that I am about to tell you today has been confirmed with my CBI contact last night on a call to Iraq...FACTUAL information...For years (decades) we have been waiting for the revaluation of the Iraq dinar and to see the IQD once again reinstated on FOREX. I am here today to tell you this is about to happen and happen much sooner than you may comprehend. But...We must still be patient and wait for it...
Walkingstick [Update from banking friend Aki] AKI: There is a tender out [in Iraq] asking for the redesign for these new coins to be minted. When you asked me if I have see the lower notes yet I told you yes, but I want you to know you have already seen them as well. We voted on these new notes. I was part of it. The voting on the remnants, history, color, size, shape, security features, all of it...You saw them 3 weeks ago when the CBI released them. The design on those are exact. We don't know why they didn't put them on the CBI website yet. [Post 1 of 2....stay tuned]
Walkingstick [Update from banking friend Aki] AKI: The CBI has been working with the Unites States Treasury on this rendering. We worked on the design, but the Treasury is helped Iraq get them printed. These are the meeting topics we've been having with the CBI and many of your people. Trump is the one pushing all of this on us. WALKINGSTICK: How long is it going to take to mint these coins? AKI: We actually have what we need but we are still minting. It's been being done for quite a while now, the coins, but we're finishing them up. I'm still waiting to see the rest of it. [Post 2 of 2]
Trump To Repay National Debt By Giving Everyone $2,000! (gold & silver rally most likely unrelated:)
Arcadia Economics: 11-12-2025
On one hand, we've all learned to take anything a politician says with a grain of salt. As anyone who's been following our political system knows it's usually more likely that a politician is lying than telling the truth.
But lately, things are getting a little bit out of control with some of the statements coming out of the Trump administration, which we dig into in today's live show.
Marcus questions the honesty behind statements suggesting inflation is under control, suggesting they may be politically motivated attempts to soothe public concern rather than honest reflections of the economic environment. For anyone paying bills or visiting a grocery store, the reality of elevated living costs is undeniable, regardless of political declarations.
The political discussion took an even stranger turn with the highlighting of an unusual proposal: the issuance of $2,000 checks to citizens, allegedly financed by tariff revenues, with the claim that this move would somehow help pay down the $37 trillion national debt.
The scale of the national debt renders such a proposal virtually meaningless in the context of debt reduction.
The idea of funding new spending checks (which inherently injects more money into the system) through revenue generated by trade barriers, while simultaneously claiming to combat a massive debt problem under a cloud of persistent inflation, is an economic contradiction.
Such maneuvers do little to address the systemic issues of fiscal irresponsibility and monetary expansion that continue to weaken the currency.

Finance — IMF Fast-Tracks Sovereign-Debt Reform
Global institutions accelerate restructuring tools as debt stress rises across emerging markets.
Good Morning Dinar Recaps,
Finance — IMF Fast-Tracks Sovereign-Debt Reform
Global institutions accelerate restructuring tools as debt stress rises across emerging markets.
Overview:
The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has accelerated reforms to its sovereign-debt restructuring framework, introducing “expedited coordination tools” that allow new programs to be approved within two to three months once creditors align.
The goal is to shorten resolution times and improve transparency for both private and bilateral creditors. In parallel, the Global Solutions Initiative called for modernization of the Global Financial Safety Net (GFSN), advocating broader use of regional financial arrangements and equitable allocation of Special Drawing Rights (SDRs) to align with climate and development goals.
Think-tanks such as the Friedrich Naumann Foundation warn that debt distress remains high across developing economies, underscoring urgency for systemic reform.
Key Developments:
MF introduces accelerated debt-program approval tools (target timeline: 2–3 months after creditor coordination).
Global Solutions Initiative urges overhaul of the GFSN to include RDAs and climate-linked SDR frameworks.
Friedrich Naumann Foundation highlights that more than 60 countries now face elevated debt-distress or solvency risks.
Consensus emerging that future lending frameworks must embed resilience metrics tied to sustainability and growth outcomes.
Why It Matters:
This reform effort shifts the global financial system from ad-hoc debt bailouts to institutionalized, faster, rules-based mechanisms. Shorter restructuring cycles reduce uncertainty in sovereign bonds, freeing liquidity for productive investment and limiting contagion. A rebalanced safety-net architecture redistributes the cost of stabilization, empowering emerging markets while constraining moral hazard. By linking SDR allocation to climate and development criteria, capital inflows may increasingly hinge on policy alignment, influencing how nations access liquidity and collateralize reform commitments.
Implications for the Global Reset:
Pillar: Finance or Financial Infrastructure — Institutional redesign of debt resolution reshapes global liquidity flows and the rules of sovereign solvency.
Pillar: Global Debt Realignment — Accelerated restructurings mark a systemic shift toward coordinated, conditional relief that re-anchors fiscal sovereignty within a new, rules-based order.
This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

Currency & Trade Integration — The Next Phase of Global Alignment
Emerging blocs accelerate currency interoperability and trade bypass systems.
Overview
A new wave of currency and trade integration is underway as multiple regional alliances push to reduce dependency on the U.S. dollar and Western clearing systems. The Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) and BRICS+ are finalizing settlement protocols for local currency trade, while ASEAN and the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) explore digital cross-border payment platforms to simplify intra-regional transactions.
Key Developments
BRICS Pay & EAEU Ruble-Yuan Clearing: Testing interoperability to settle energy, metals, and grain contracts outside SWIFT.
ASEAN’s Local Currency Settlement (LCS) expansion now includes Japan and South Korea, signaling a bridge between Asian and Western Pacific systems.
Africa’s Pan-African Payment and Settlement System (PAPSS) grows to 50+ banks, linking regional central banks with SDR-indexed digital units.
Latin American Alliance exploring “Sur,” a potential digital common currency for trade within MERCOSUR.
Why This Matters / Key Takeaway
These integrations mark a monetary realignment away from the single-reserve system toward a multipolar trade and payment order. If successful, this could create a network of regional currencies interoperating via digital or commodity-backed frameworks — a foundational step in the global financial reset.

How To Be Wealthy in Retirement: Experts Share the 5 Best Money Moves To Make Before Retiring
Retirement. Imagine it. Dropping out of the rat race forever, enjoying the time you have left — being with your family, pursuing the hobby you could never make time for, finally taking that dream vacation.
Unless you were born rich — and if you were, you probably wouldn’t be reading this — you know it’s not going to happen without a lot of saving and planning. You’ve seen the generic advice everywhere. Max out your 401(k), cut your expenses, go back to school so you can make more — but there are a million paths to financial security, and some of them might surprise you.

How To Be Wealthy in Retirement: Experts Share the 5 Best Money Moves To Make Before Retiring
Retirement. Imagine it. Dropping out of the rat race forever, enjoying the time you have left — being with your family, pursuing the hobby you could never make time for, finally taking that dream vacation.
Unless you were born rich — and if you were, you probably wouldn’t be reading this — you know it’s not going to happen without a lot of saving and planning. You’ve seen the generic advice everywhere. Max out your 401(k), cut your expenses, go back to school so you can make more — but there are a million paths to financial security, and some of them might surprise you.
Here are five real-world examples of people that made smart moves that allowed them to enjoy a worry-free retirement.
Downsizing
Dennis Shirshikov, head of growth at Awning, shared the story of Tom and Lisa, who were able to secure a very comfortable retirement by significantly downsizing their lifestyle.
“As their retirement neared, they opted to downsize their lifestyle significantly. They sold their five-bedroom house in the city and bought a smaller, but comfortable, two-bedroom home in a quieter suburb. This not only reduced their living costs but also provided them with a considerable amount of cash from the sale, which they put into diversified investments.
“Now, they live comfortably off the income generated from their investments, and they’ve even had the chance to indulge in regular travel, something they’ve always dreamed of.”
Investing In Rental Properties
Shirshikov also related the story of retired school teacher Sarah, who achieved her retirement dream by investing in rental real estate.
“Instead of choosing to put her money in typical retirement accounts like a 401(k), she opted for a more unconventional approach. By the time she retired, she had a portfolio of five rental properties, each providing a stable monthly income. To make it even more hassle-free, she engaged a property management company to deal with the daily operations. Now, in her retirement, she enjoys a steady stream of income that more than supports her lifestyle.”
Never Stop Working — Sort Of
Finally, Shirshikov told GOBankingRates about Robert, a former corporate executive, who used a kind of hybrid approach to retirement to achieve total financial freedom.
“He started a consulting business in his late 50s, leveraging his decades of experience in the corporate world. He worked full time for the first couple of years, building his reputation and client base. By the time he reached his retirement age, he’d already transitioned his business into a part-time endeavor. This way, he not only keeps himself engaged but also supplements his retirement savings, giving him financial flexibility.”
Move In With Your Kids — Sort Of
The idea of living with your adult children may sound like a nightmare, a dream come true or a little bit of both — but you could stay very close without truly living under the same roof. An ADU, or accessory dwelling unit, is the term for a secondary housing unit on a single-family residential lot. Sean Roberts, CEO of Villa Homes, told GOBankingRates about Sarah and Nile’s smart ADU retirement money move.

Tishwash: AFP: Sudani coalition achieves major victory in Iraqi elections
Agence France-Presse reported on Wednesday that the coalition of Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani achieved a major victory in the parliamentary elections held on Tuesday.
An official close to the Prime Minister told AFP that the Development and Reconstruction bloc had achieved a remarkable success, while two other sources indicated that the list had won the largest parliamentary bloc with nearly 50 seats or more.

Tishwash: AFP: Sudani coalition achieves major victory in Iraqi elections
Agence France-Presse reported on Wednesday that the coalition of Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani achieved a major victory in the parliamentary elections held on Tuesday.
An official close to the Prime Minister told AFP that the Development and Reconstruction bloc had achieved a remarkable success, while two other sources indicated that the list had won the largest parliamentary bloc with nearly 50 seats or more.
Sudani has emerged as a major political force in Iraq since coming to power three years ago, with the support of the Coordination Framework Alliance, which includes Shiite parties and factions close to Iran.
This success comes in the context of a tense political landscape, where different blocs are seeking to form alliances to secure a stable parliamentary majority. link
Tishwash: The International Monetary Fund expects stable and accelerating growth in the Iraqi economy until 2030
The Iraqi economy is poised for a more stable growth trajectory in the coming years, following a slight contraction of 0.2% in 2024, according to data from the International Monetary Fund.
According to the "Al-Sharq" website, the fund predicted that the country's economy would return to growth in 2025 at a rate of 0.5%.
The IMF estimates show a marked acceleration in the pace of growth starting from 2026 to 3.6%, the same rate expected for 2027, before rising to 3.9% in 2028, and then 4.1% for both 2029 and 2030.
The International Monetary Fund predicted last October that Iraq would rank fourth among the largest economies in the Arab world by 2030.
According to the report, Saudi Arabia tops the list as the largest Arab economy with a GDP of $1.6 trillion, followed by the United Arab Emirates in second place with about $764.8 billion, and then Egypt in third place with $589.8 billion.
Iraq comes in fourth place, with an expected GDP of $345.9 billion, continuing its advanced position among Arab economies supported by the energy and oil sector and reconstruction and development projects, ahead of Algeria, which came in fifth with a total of $309 billion, followed by Qatar in sixth place with $296.8 billion, Morocco in seventh place with $241.9 billion, and then Kuwait in eighth place with $190.1 billion.
The last places on the list were occupied by the Sultanate of Oman with a total of $133.3 billion, followed by Jordan in tenth place with $73.6 billion.
The report indicated that Arab economies are experiencing varying paths of growth, driven by economic reforms, expanding investments in renewable energy, tourism, and technology, along with efforts to diversify away from dependence on oil as a primary source of revenue. link

Tishwash: Iran is boiling over internally... and workers are in the streets demanding their rights.
More than three thousand contract workers at the South Pars gas complex demonstrated in front of the complex’s central building in Asaluyeh, demanding the implementation of a wage unification plan, a change in the work pattern, and the complete elimination of the role of contracting companies.
A large group of contract workers from the twelve refineries belonging to "South Pars" participated today, Tuesday, November 11, in protests in the streets leading to the central headquarters of the complex in Asaluyeh, to demand their professional and living rights.
These workers, who belong to the categories of workforce, contracting companies, and contractors in the various stages of the South Pars project and the Fajr Jam refinery, raised banners calling for "achieving fair wages" and "abolishing the contractors system."
In a joint statement, the workers demanded a review of the job classification plan with the aim of standardizing the salaries of contract workers with those of official employees.
The demands also included changing the work schedule for administrative staff and support teams to a "two weeks on, two weeks off" system, regulating the status of non-owner rental car drivers, paying air travel allowances for contracted workers, and restoring social services and benefits such as accommodation in residential complexes.
One of the workers participating in the gathering said: "For years, despite repeated promises, the job classification plan in 'South Pars' has not been implemented properly, and there is still a large gap between the wages of contract workers and official employees."
Some workers also saw the complete abolition of the contractor system as the only way to achieve job fairness.
An employee of the twelfth phase of "South Pars" stated that the presence of contractors leads to violations of workers' rights, with insufficient oversight of the wage payment mechanism.
As the Iranian regime continues to fail to meet the demands of various groups, the past few days and weeks have witnessed a series of strikes and protests by workers, employees, and retirees across the country.
On November 2, retirees from the telecommunications sector took to the streets in several cities, and nurses from the University of Medical Sciences in Kermanshah, workers from the "Makian Alvan" slaughterhouse in Rey, and employees of the "Falat Qara" oil company on Lavan Island organized protest rallies against the disregard for their demands.
On October 31, oil sector workers held a demonstration in front of the presidential office in Tehran, renewing their protest against unfulfilled government promises regarding the elimination of contractors and intermediaries.
These workers, who came from the oil-rich provinces to the capital Tehran, confirmed that despite the promises of Masoud Pezeshkian’s government, none of the promises have been fulfilled so far. link

The Central Bank Of Iraq Reveals Dollar Sales Figures For The First Nine Months Of This Year.
Banks Economy News – Baghdad The Central Bank of Iraq revealed on Tuesday that its sales of hard currency amounted to more than $60 billion during the first nine months of this year. The bank said in a statistic that "the bank's sales of hard currency during the first nine months of 2025 amounted to $60 billion and 781 million."

Banks Economy News – Baghdad The Central Bank of Iraq revealed on Tuesday that its sales of hard currency amounted to more than $60 billion during the first nine months of this year. The bank said in a statistic that "the bank's sales of hard currency during the first nine months of 2025 amounted to $60 billion and 781 million."
He added that "sales were distributed between foreign remittances amounting to 58 billion and 684 million, and also to cash sales amounting to 2 billion and 97 million dollars."
The bank's statistics indicated that "these sales, during the first nine months of this year, increased by 11.61% compared to the same period last year, which amounted to $54 billion and 458 million." https://economy-news.net/content.php?id=62197
Significant Gains: An Economic Decision In Iraq That Will Save $5 Billion Annually.
energy Economy News – Baghdad The advisor to the Iraqi Prime Minister, Mazhar Muhammad Salih, confirmed that stopping the import of oil products will save $5 billion annually, and is also a step that paves the way for exports after the completion of the operation of modern refineries in Iraq.
Saleh said that "the Iraqi government's announcement of halting the import of oil products is a qualitative and strong turning point in the path of diversifying the national economy, as it represents the real beginning of diversifying the oil sector itself."
He continued: “The Iraqi economy, which has long been characterized by its rentier nature and its heavy reliance on crude oil exports, is today witnessing a fundamental transformation in its production structure, paving the way for a new phase of industrial transformation in energy and strengthening economic sovereignty,” according to the Iraqi News Agency (INA).
Saleh added that "the decision achieves significant savings in foreign currency for the benefit of the Iraqi economy by reducing the annual import of oil derivatives, which is estimated at about $5 billion annually on average and includes vital products such as gasoline, gas oil, and others. These savings are reflected positively on the current account balance of the Iraqi balance of payments, which enhances the country's ability to manage its foreign exchange reserves more sustainably."
He explained that "the decision also contributes to boosting the gross domestic product by about 3% annually, as a result of the increased added value resulting from the local production of those oil derivatives instead of importing them."
He said that Iraqi oil policy in the next phase seeks to gradually export oil derivatives after completing the construction of modern refinery chains, adopting advanced technology and making extensive investments in the crude oil refining sector. https://economy-news.net/content.php?id=62190

Tishwash: Iraq enters the era of digital services... How has electronic payment changed the lives of citizens?
Prepared by : Mohammed Hussein Al-Abousi – President of the Arab Youth Organization
Cash transactions are no longer the preferred method of transportation in Iraq, as digital services, particularly electronic payments , have begun to rapidly transform citizens' daily lives. With the expansion of e-wallet networks and digital banks, Iraq is effectively entering the era of the digital economy , a move considered a historic shift in the country's economic and social structure.
From salaries to bills, everything has gone digital.
Data from the Central Bank of Iraq indicates a significant increase in the number of e-wallet users over the past two years, with companies like Zain Cash , Asiacell Money , and KeyCard expanding their electronic payment and transfer services across all governorates. Employees can now receive their salaries through digital applications and pay their electricity and internet bills without needing to visit government offices, saving time and effort and reducing traditional cash transactions that previously burdened citizens.
A national project to change financial culture
In this context, the Arab Youth Organization implemented a year-long national project to promote a culture of electronic payments . This included organizing training workshops in ten Iraqi governorates , with the participation of hundreds of young people from civil society organizations. The project aimed to enhance financial literacy and encourage citizens to use digital tools in their daily lives, thus contributing to the creation of a new generation better equipped to engage with modern financial technology.
Electronic payment reduces corruption and increases transparency
Economists believe that the shift towards electronic payments not only facilitates transactions but is also a crucial step in combating corruption and reducing the informal economy. Tracking financial transactions electronically limits financial manipulation and strengthens trust between citizens and government institutions.
Furthermore, the digitization of financial transactions opens the door to investment in financial technology (FinTech) and encourages banks to adopt innovative solutions that keep pace with global developments.
Broad social impact
The effects of this transformation were not limited to the economy alone, but were also reflected in society. With the increasing use of electronic payments among young people, women, and students, a new culture emerged based on financial independence and personal budgeting, in addition to creating job opportunities in the fields of technology, customer service, and digital marketing.
Basrawi website opinion
Basrawi.com believes that Iraq is currently experiencing the beginnings of a true digital era, and that the widespread adoption of electronic payments among citizens paves the way for building a comprehensive knowledge-based economy .
It emphasizes that the continuation of this transformation requires governmental and legislative support on one hand, and the ongoing initiatives of civil society, such as the Arab Youth Organization project, on the other, to ensure that digital services reach all segments of society. link

AI Financial Governance — Algorithms Managing Global Risk
Artificial intelligence is increasingly shaping policy, oversight, and real-time market stability.
Overview
AI-driven governance is emerging as a critical pillar of the global financial reset. Central banks, regulators, and large financial institutions are deploying machine learning and predictive analytics to monitor systemic risk, optimize monetary policy, and ensure compliance across complex digital and cross-border markets.
Current Developments
Central banks are using AI models for real-time stress testing, liquidity management, and fraud detection, creating a new standard for proactive oversight.
The G20 and other multilateral institutions are drafting standards for AI transparency and accountability in financial governance, ensuring that algorithmic decisions are auditable and reliable.
AI-enabled monitoring of tokenized assets, CBDCs, and cross-border settlements allows for instant detection of anomalies, reducing systemic exposure to shocks and enhancing market confidence.
What It Means
AI governance is essential for:
Integrating tokenized assets and digital currencies into regulated financial systems.
Enhancing predictive capacity to prevent crises before they cascade.
Providing oversight across jurisdictions where traditional regulators may lack resources or expertise.
Why This Matters
Without AI governance, the speed and complexity of a tokenized, multi-currency global system could overwhelm human oversight. Properly deployed, AI becomes a stabilizing force that makes the global financial reset operationally feasible. Observers should monitor regulatory adoption of AI standards and central bank implementations as leading indicators of a coordinated reset.
This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

Geopolitical Alignment — Diplomacy and Finance Converge
Global power shifts are synchronizing economic, political, and financial strategies.
Overview
Geopolitical realignment underpins the entire global financial reset. Diplomatic breakthroughs, regional alliances, and strategic engagements are increasingly tied to financial flows, debt restructuring, and currency integration. Trade, sanctions, and foreign investment are now coordinated with broader global policy objectives.
Current Developments
The U.S. has lifted key sanctions on Syria, enabling reconstruction investments and diplomatic engagement with previously adversarial leaders.
Germany’s presence at the BRICS summit highlights European interest in maintaining strategic dialogue with emerging economic powers.
Tanzania’s contested elections and subsequent international scrutiny demonstrate how political stability and governance intersect with economic credibility, affecting investment and regional integration.
What It Means
Financial reset and geopolitical alignment are mutually reinforcing:
Countries with aligned policies can participate in multi-currency trade and tokenized asset settlements.
Diplomatic agreements reduce the risk of sanctions-driven fragmentation.
Political stability underpins investor confidence, enabling debt restructuring and large-scale infrastructure financing.
Why This Matters
Without coordinated geopolitical alignment, the other four pillars — debt realignment, currency integration, tokenization, and AI governance — risk operating in fragmented silos. Observers should track cross-border summits, sanctions policy shifts, and regional alliances as leading indicators of a comprehensive reset.
This is not just politics — it’s global finance restructuring before our eyes.

Economy | 11/11/2025 Mawazin News - Baghdad: The Central Bank of Iraq denied on Tuesday claims of a reduction in the dinar's exchange rate against the dollar.
A statement from the bank indicated that "some news websites and social media outlets have circulated reports claiming to be based on a study by the Central Bank of Iraq suggesting the possibility of reducing the dinar's exchange rate to 4,000."
The bank affirmed, according to the statement, that "the report is false, and the bank continues to defend the current exchange rate, with current monetary indicators supporting this stance." https://www.mawazin.net/Details.aspx?jimare=270174
The Central Bank Denies Rumors Of A Dinar Devaluation.
Baratha News Agency492025-11-11 The Central Bank denied on Tuesday (November 11, 2025) rumors of the dinar's decline, stressing that they were untrue and were not issued by any official body.
The bank's media office stated in a statement that "the Central Bank of Iraq denied the news circulating about the expected decrease in the value of the dinar to 4,000 dinars against the dollar, stressing that this information is incorrect and was not issued by any official body within the bank."
The bank called on the media and citizens to rely only on official sources and to avoid being drawn into rumors aimed at creating financial panic in the market. https://burathanews.com/arabic/economic/467604
A source clarifies: There Will Be No Change To The Exchange Rate, And The Central Bank Continues To Defend It
Baratha News Agency1282025-11-11 Some media outlets reported on a study suggesting a government plan to adjust the exchange rate in the future. However, it turned out that this plan, which was published in studies, did not originate from the central bank and dates back more than ten years.
In this context, a source from the Central Bank confirmed on Tuesday (November 11, 2025) that foreign reserves remain at comfortable levels sufficient to cover imports and enhance the stability of the financial market.
The source explained that "the Central Bank continues to defend the current rate, and that the monetary and financial indicators in the country are stable and support this trend."
This denial comes after unofficial reports circulated on digital platforms claiming that there was a government intention to adjust the exchange rate in the future. https://burathanews.com/arabic/economic/467599
Iraq Avoids Budget Deficit Thanks To One Factor... Expert Reveals The Secret
Time: 2025/11/08 Reading: 360 times {Economic: Al-Furat News} Economic expert, Salah Nouri, revealed that the Financial Management Law No. 6 of 2019 served as a safety valve
that saved Iraq from entering a state of financial deficit
by addressing cases of delay in approving the federal general budget law or its failure to be approved on the specified dates. Nouri told Al-Furat News Agency that:
“The Financial Management Law has addressed several cases related to the approval of the federal general budget law,” noting that “Article 13 stipulated clear procedures to ensure the continuity of spending even if the budget is delayed beyond December 31 of the year preceding the year in which it was prepared.”
He explained that "the aforementioned article authorized the Minister of Finance to issue an official circular based on specific criteria, whereby it permits spending at a rate of {1/12} or less of the total actual expenditures for current expenses for the previous fiscal year, after excluding non-recurring expenses, to ensure the continuity of employee salaries and the operation of government facilities without interruption."
Nouri added that "the same article allowed for spending from the total annual allocation for ongoing investment projects whose allocations were included during the previous and subsequent fiscal years, according to the actual completion rates or completed stages of preparation, with the aim of preventing the suspension of projects under implementation."
The economist explained that “the third paragraph of the article accurately addressed the situation of the budget not being approved at all, as it stipulated that the final financial data of the previous year be adopted as the basis for the financial data of the new year, provided that this data is submitted to the House of Representatives for the purpose of approval, which ensures the continuation of the state’s financial activity in a legal and organized manner.”
Nouri stressed that “this article, with its three paragraphs, represented a comprehensive solution to the situation of delaying or not approving the budget at the end of the fiscal year,” explaining that “thanks to it, Iraq avoided falling into financial paralysis, especially since the House of Representatives had previously approved a budget for three years {2023 – 2024 – 2025}, which strengthened financial stability and contributed to regulating government spending within specific and clear ceilings.” https://alforatnews.iq/news/العراق-يتفادى-العجز-المالي-بفضل-عنصر-واحد-خبير-يكشف-السر

HÀ NỘI — Chairman of the Hải Phòng City People's Committee Lê Trung Kiên recently directed relevant agencies to speed up the establishment of a 5,300ha specialised economic zone with a total investment of more than VNĐ338 trillion (US$12.9 billion) in the city.
The project to establish the zone has been submitted to the Prime Minister, and its setup is ongoing.
The zone, which is designed with modern infrastructure and is set to become a comprehensive and multi-industry economic zone, is expected to be a driver for the city's socio-economic growth, with a contribution of about 3-4 per cent to the city's GRDP by 2030 and over 5 per cent after 2030.
It covers about 5,300ha in six communes in the core area of the dynamic industrial park to the west of the city: Thượng Hồng, Nguyễn Lương Bằng, Bắc Thanh Miện, Thanh Miện, Hải Hưng and Bình Giang. According to local authorities, it is a favourable location connecting the Red River Delta, where there are several industrial and commercial centres, large domestic markets and an abundant workforce, by road, waterway and airway.
It is also located on the main route of economic corridors linking Việt Nam with China, including Nanning - Lạng Sơn - Hà Nội - Hải Phòng - Quảng Ninh and Kunming - Lào Cai - Hà Nội - Hải Phòng - Quảng Ninh.
Aside from the specialised economic zone, Hải Phòng also aims to complete and approve plans for a Southern Coastal Economic Zone by the end of this year. The northern city also plans to develop a Hải Phòng City Free Trade Zone, after the Government issued a decision on establishing the zone on October 13. — VNA/VNS

Henig: Logistics Forum 2025 seeks to unleash development potential of central Việt Nam
November 10, 2025 - 08:13
Themed “Vietnam Logistics – Rising into the New Era,” the 2025 forum reflects Việt Nam ’s aspiration to elevate the logistics industry during a period of strong transformation.
The Vietnam Logistics Forum 2025, scheduled to take place on November 28–29 in the central coastal city of Đà Nẵng, is expected to be a strategic milestone, marking a new phase of development for Việt Nam’s logistics services amidst the ongoing global supply chain restructuring and rapid digital transformation.
According to the Foreign Trade Agency under the Ministry of Industry and Trade (MoIT), the forum, organised annually by the MoIT, aims to promote the development of logistics services, strengthen the linkage between logistics and production as well as import – export industries, and serve as a platform for dialogue, exchange of views, and updates on key domestic and international logistic issues.
Over the course of 12 editions, it has received strong attention and high evaluation from Government leaders, ministries, sectors, local authorities and the business community for its practical significance in fostering business cooperation, attracting investment, and driving the growth of Việt Nam’s logistics industry. Themed “Việt Nam Logistics – Rising into the New Era,” the 2025 forum serves not only as a continuation of the series of annual events but also as a reflection of the sector’s aspiration to elevate Việt Nam’s logistics industry during a period of strong transformation.
It will provide an opportunity for government agencies, experts and businesses to engage in discussions and propose measures for the sector’s development, promote the improvement of governance mechanisms and reaffirm logistics as a pillar of the national economy. On November 28, the agenda will feature field trips to ports and logistics centres in Đà Nẵng. The purpose of these visits is to showcase the logistics development potential and infrastructure in these areas.
On the morning of November 29, a plenary session will take place, with the participation of the Prime Minister, along with representatives from ministries, sectors, and localities. In the afternoon, a thematic workshop titled “Finding Opportunities for Breakthrough Logistics in the Central Region” will be held.
This session will emphasise the strategic importance of developing infrastructure, logistics, and trade in central Việt Nam, while encouraging self-reliance and regional cooperation with neighbouring countries such as Thailand and Laos to activate economic corridors. It aims to link logistics activities more closely with actual goods circulation, laying the foundation for sustainable regional connectivity.
After the presentations, the forum will hold a Q&A session for participants to engage in in-depth discussions. Đà Nẵng was selected as the forum venue as it is a key part of the East – West Economic Corridor that connects Việt Nam, Laos, Thailand and Myanmar and also serves as a gateway to the East Sea for the Greater Mekong Sub-region. In particular, the central region is believed to hold huge logistics potential which hasn't been fully tapped into.
With the upgrade of Liên Chiểu Port, the expansion of Tiên Sa Port, the North – South expressway network and Đà Nẵng International Airport, the central region is expected to become an international logistics and goods transit hub in the near future, according to the MoIT. — BIZHUB/VNA
