If you think this entire event is not being meticulously coordinated when looking at Japan and where the IQD is along with the Clarity Act you are not paying attention at all.
This is what many naysayers severely underestimate.
They are not looking at this as a global restructuring of how assets are treated and how it will be managed under the new financial system.

Stephanie Starr: Iraq is Already Looking Ahead to the 2027 Federal Budget
7-27-2026
Iraq is already looking ahead to the 2027 federal budget, and that’s telling.
The Parliamentary Finance Committee is reviewing:
Fiscal plans
Spending reforms
Fee adjustments
Revenue optimization
Performance-based budgeting
This isn’t just about writing another budget, it’s about transforming Iraq into a modern, sustainable economy with stronger non-oil revenues, greater fiscal discipline, and improved government accountability.
Over the past few years Iraq has:
Modernized its banking sector
Expanded electronic payments
Increased tax and customs collection
Advanced digital transformation
Worked to reconnect its financial system with global markets!
Preparing the 2027 budget while these reforms continue signals that Baghdad is planning beyond today’s challenges and building the financial framework for long-term economic growth (that we all know will increase the value of the dinar)
The foundation is being laid. Watch the reforms not just the headlines.
Channel 8 English:The Iraqi Parliamentary Finance Committee met with the Director General of the Budget Department, where officials reviewed fiscal plans, fee adjustments, and expenditure ceilings to curb spending, maximize state revenues, and align project listings with the 2027 performance-budget framework.

Jeff REER means Real Effective Exchange Rate. Depending on where the country's inflation is, is going to determine the direction the rate is going to go, whether it goes up or down. Iraq has...almost no inflation so the REER is going to go in a positive direction through a redenomination. There's nothing to worry about here.
Reset Intelligence Iraq's prime minister signed a rail line to carry trade into Iran, and in the same week let a US-led group begin engineering...the Kirkuk to Baniyas line out to the Mediterranean...Baghdad is turning itself into the crossroads the whole region has to run through....The dinar is the currency sitting on that ground, still priced from before any of this was signed.
GuyIt's very clear in the last week we've had roughly 10 years worth of solid news packed in one week. For those of us who've been invested for a long time...if you're a new investor, trust us, we've never seen this much movement ever, ever...it just wasn't the prime minister. He had the Governor of the Central Bank, his finance minister, an entire delegation of economic advisers and finance people...There were a lot of back channel meetings going on. We don't know what happened but why would they be having those unless something's going to move?

Foreign Policy magazine describes al-Zaidi as "The Most Powerful Man In Iraq": Trump's Bet On His Leadership To Reshape The Iraqi Landscape May Run Into Obstacles Within The Political System
Latest News Sunday, July 26, 2026 Baghdad - One News - Foreign Policy Magazine believes that the warm welcome shown by US President Donald Trump during his reception of Iraqi Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi at the White House was not merely a diplomatic courtesy, but rather reflects a new American approach based on supporting leaders capable of consolidating state power, reducing Iranian influence, and opening their countries’ economies to American companies.
According to the magazine's report, the Trump administration, led by its envoy to the region, Tom Barrack, is betting on a "strongman" model in Iraq, after previous US administrations focused on political compromises and power-sharing.
Washington believes that having a single leader capable of exerting control over state institutions and security services is more effective in achieving its interests than systems of governance based on balances and coalitions.
The report indicated that the search for “Washington’s man” in Baghdad began after the 2025 elections, when Trump publicly rejected the nomination of former Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki, whom the US administration considered close to Iran, before Iraqi political forces turned to nominating Ali al-Zaidi, who at the time was a young banker with no political base or government experience.
The report argues that al-Zaidi was a consensus candidate for Iraqi political forces, while Washington considered him a figure who could be supported to implement an agenda based on strengthening state authority, restricting weapons to the government, and reducing the influence of armed factions, in parallel with launching a broad campaign to combat corruption.
He added that al-Zaidi made Washington his first foreign destination after assuming the premiership, and pledged to proceed with the project of integrating and disarming armed factions, including groups close to Iran, within an American vision that considers these steps part of a broader project to rebuild the Iraqi state.
However, the report indicates that this bet faces significant challenges, because the Iraqi political system was designed after 2003 to prevent the monopolization of power by one person, and previous attempts to integrate armed factions have not succeeded in ending their loyalties, as they have retained their leadership and organizational structures despite their members receiving salaries and positions within state institutions.
He added that some factions announced their readiness to coordinate with the government, while others, including Kataib Hezbollah and Harakat al-Nujaba, refused to engage in the weapons control project, making the implementation of this plan more complicated.
The report also argues that the recent war has strengthened the presence of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard inside Iraq and solidified the ties of some factions to Tehran, which makes it more difficult for any government attempt to impose a state monopoly on weapons within a short period of time.
The report stressed that many Iraqi officials want to strengthen state sovereignty and reduce the influence of armed groups, but desire alone is not enough given the political, military and economic influence that these factions possess, as well as the connection of some of them to Iran.
The report concludes that the Trump administration's bet on transforming Ali al-Zaidi into a central leader capable of reshaping the Iraqi landscape may face structural obstacles related to the nature of the Iraqi political system, the entanglement of power centers, and internal balances of power. It warns that the pursuit of quick results could lead to an escalation of internal conflict rather than the consolidation of stability. https://1news-iq.net/مجلة-فورين-بوليسي-الأميركية-تصف-الز/

Oman Proposes The "Malacca" Model For Managing The Strait Of Hormuz: A Regional Proposal To Finance Shipping Services Without Imposing Transit Fees
latest news Sunday, July 26, 2026 Amman - One News - 7/26/2026 CNN has revealed a new Omani proposal aimed at reorganizing the management of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz, through the creation of a regional cooperation mechanism for providing maritime services, inspired by the model adopted in the Straits of Malacca and Singapore, in an effort to secure one of the most important maritime routes in the world and alleviate the tensions it has witnessed in recent months.
According to the report, the proposal is not based on creating a new military alliance or naval force, but rather focuses on establishing a regional framework to manage and finance navigational services, including the maintenance of buoys and lighthouses, regulating ship traffic, enhancing maritime safety procedures, and responding to emergencies and environmental pollution, similar to the mechanism that has been in place for years in the Straits of Malacca and Singapore.
The report explained that the Sultanate of Oman presented the proposal to the United States and a number of international partners, stressing that the goal is not to impose transit fees on ships, but rather to create contributions or fees related to maritime services provided, in order to ensure the continued funding of safety operations without compromising the principle of freedom of international navigation.
The report indicated that the proposal also includes a vision for regulating navigation through two maritime corridors, one in Omani waters that remains open to international navigation, and the other in Iranian waters that is subject to coordination mechanisms agreed upon by the parties, within the framework of efforts to reduce military friction and prevent a recurrence of the crises that the strait has recently witnessed.
The Omani proposal comes amid growing international concerns about the impact of security tensions in the Strait of Hormuz on global energy markets, especially since the strait is one of the most important arteries for oil and gas trade in the world, while the recent military escalation has led to higher shipping and insurance costs and raised fears of disruption to international trade.
CNN confirmed that the proposal is still in the consultation phase and has not yet reached a final agreement, as the parties are still discussing the nature of the fees, the mechanism for their administration, and the entity that will oversee the proposed system.
Diplomatic contacts continue between Oman, Iran, the United States, and several other countries concerned with maritime security in the Gulf. https://1news-iq.net/عُمان-تطرح-نموذج-ملقا-لإدارة-هرمز-م/

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,
Ballooning U.S. Debt Strengthens Gold and Bitcoin as Investors Seek Alternatives
Growing concerns over America’s expanding national debt and long-term fiscal outlook are prompting investors to increase allocations to gold and Bitcoin, signaling a broader shift in how global markets view traditional safe-haven assets.
Good Morning Dinar Recaps,
Ballooning U.S. Debt Strengthens Gold and Bitcoin as Investors Seek Alternatives
Growing concerns over America’s expanding national debt and long-term fiscal outlook are prompting investors to increase allocations to gold and Bitcoin, signaling a broader shift in how global markets view traditional safe-haven assets.
Overview
The U.S. national debt has climbed to approximately $39.3 trillion, raising concerns about long-term fiscal sustainability.
Investors are increasingly moving toward gold and Bitcoin as hedges against potential dollar weakness and inflation.
The trend reflects broader changes in global reserve preferences and the evolving financial landscape.
Key Developments
1. U.S. Debt Continues to Reach Historic Levels
America's national debt has expanded to nearly $39.3 trillion, with analysts projecting additional deficits over the coming years. Rising borrowing costs and larger interest payments are placing increasing pressure on future federal budgets.
Many economists warn that persistent debt growth could gradually reduce confidence in long-term fiscal stability if deficits continue expanding faster than economic growth.
2. Gold and Bitcoin Attract Safe-Haven Demand
As concerns surrounding fiscal policy increase, investors are allocating more capital toward gold and Bitcoin as alternative stores of value.
Gold continues to benefit from its long-standing reputation as a monetary reserve asset, while Bitcoin is increasingly viewed by some institutional investors as a digital hedge against currency debasement and monetary uncertainty.
Although the U.S. dollar remains the world's primary reserve currency, market participants are increasingly diversifying portfolios to reduce concentration risk.
3. Dollar Faces Growing Long-Term Questions
The movement into alternative assets does not indicate an imminent collapse of the U.S. dollar. Rather, it reflects growing efforts by investors to diversify as governments around the world carry higher debt burdens.
Central banks have also continued adding gold reserves over recent years, reinforcing gold's role as an important reserve asset alongside traditional currencies.
4. Markets Watch Federal Reserve and Fiscal Policy
Future Federal Reserve decisions on interest rates, inflation, and balance sheet policy will remain major drivers of investor sentiment.
Should inflation remain elevated or debt continue growing rapidly, demand for alternative assets could remain strong as investors seek additional protection from fiscal uncertainty.
Why It Matters
Debt has become one of the defining economic issues of the decade. As governments continue financing large deficits, investors are reassessing where they preserve wealth, balancing traditional financial assets with physical gold and digital assets.
These developments highlight how fiscal policy increasingly influences capital flows, reserve management, and confidence across the global financial system.
Why It Matters to Foreign Currency Holders
For those monitoring long-term monetary reform, rising government debt strengthens interest in asset-backed stores of value and diversified reserve strategies. While this does not signal an immediate currency revaluation, it reflects the broader financial trends encouraging nations and investors to reduce dependence on any single asset or currency.
Implications for the Global Reset
Pillar 1: Debt
Growing sovereign debt levels continue driving discussions about fiscal sustainability, monetary policy, and long-term confidence in government-issued currencies.
Pillar 3: Assets
Increasing investment in gold and Bitcoin demonstrates how both central banks and private investors are diversifying into alternative stores of value amid rising financial uncertainty.
Pillar 4: Technology
The continued adoption of Bitcoin alongside traditional reserve assets reflects the growing role of digital financial infrastructure in the evolving global monetary system.
Future Outlook
Markets will closely monitor Federal Reserve policy, Treasury borrowing needs, inflation trends, and future debt projections. If fiscal pressures continue building, investor demand for diversified reserve assets—including gold and digital assets—could remain an important feature of global markets.
This is not simply about rising government debt—it reflects a broader shift in how investors, institutions, and nations are positioning for a financial system increasingly shaped by fiscal sustainability, reserve diversification, and the search for long-term monetary stability.

🌱 A Message to Our Currency Holders🌱
If you’ve been holding foreign currency for many years, you were not foolish.
You were not wrong to believe the global financial system would change.
What failed was not your patience — it was the information you were given.
For years, dates, rumors, and personalities replaced facts, structure, and proof. “This week” predictions created cycles of hope and disappointment that were never based on how currencies actually change.
That is not your failure.
Our mission here is different: • No dates • No rates • No hype • No gurus
Instead, we focus on:
• Verifiable developments • Institutional evidence
• Global financial structure • Where countries actually sit in the process
Currency value changes only come after sovereignty, trade, banking, settlement systems, and fiscal coordination are in place. History and institutions confirm this sequence.
You will see silence. You will see denials. That is not delay — that is discipline.
Protect your identity. Organize your documents. Verify everything.
Never hand your discernment to anyone who cannot show proof.
You deserve truth — not timelines.

7-25-2026

Holly Celiano: Latest Weekly Iraq and Financial Updates as of 24th July 2026
7-25-2026
The global financial landscape is currently undergoing a transformation of historic proportions.
According to recent updates from industry observers like Holly Celiano, who recently shared insights from Scott Brunswick and other corroborated sources, the transition from traditional fiat-based systems to a more secure, asset-backed model is well underway.
At the heart of this evolution is the Quantum Financial System (QFS), a sophisticated technological framework designed to bring transparency, security, and stability to international trade and personal banking.
The Quantum Financial System is no longer a mere concept; reports indicate it is now fully operational on a global scale. This system is instrumental in facilitating the transition of 209 nations away from fiat currencies—which are backed by government decree—toward systems backed by tangible assets, primarily gold.
This shift suggests a level of international coordination and banking readiness that many have anticipated for years. By grounding currency in gold, the global economy aims to move toward a more stable valuation model, reducing the volatility often associated with traditional central banking.
A pivotal piece of this financial puzzle is the nation of Iraq. In recent updates, Iraq has been identified as a “catalyst nation,” having finalized its currency readiness. This milestone is significant because it serves as an initiating force for the broader Global Currency Reset (GCR).
When a key nation like Iraq completes its internal protocols and aligns with the new system, it signals trust and validation to the rest of the world. This step is expected to accelerate a sequence of “unlocks” that will eventually allow other participating nations to follow suit in the global reset.
The transition to a new financial architecture is not being handled lightly. It is governed by a series of strict protocols and legal frameworks to ensure a secure rollout. A major component of this is ISO 20022, a modern international messaging standard for electronic data interchange between financial institutions.
By utilizing this standard alongside executive orders and Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs), the transition ensures a high level of precision. These measures are designed to eliminate the risk of fraud, disruption, or manipulation as the world’s financial plumbing is essentially replaced.
One of the more intriguing aspects of the current transition is the gap between “behind-the-scenes” progress and public perception. Information suggests that much of what the public currently witnesses is a “reenactment” of events that have already been finalized in private sectors or high-level government circles.
This reframes the way we interpret daily news; what may seem like a delay or a scripted event is often a public-facing mirror of a reality that has already been secured. Understanding this helps observers maintain perspective as the full disclosure of the new system approaches.
For those awaiting specific dates for the completion of the GCR, the current advice is to focus on milestones rather than the calendar. The transition is not date-driven; rather, it is a procedural evolution that depends on fulfilling specific “tiers” of readiness.
This focus on process over arbitrary deadlines prevents disillusionment and underscores the complexity of reconfiguring the world’s economy. While legislative milestones, such as the anticipated movement regarding the Clarity Act in the coming months, provide markers for progress, patience remains the most valuable asset for the general public.
Beyond the technical and legislative aspects of the QFS, there is a significant psychological component to this era of change. The transition is often described as a “live audition” for the future. Individuals are encouraged to cultivate a mindset of positivity, kindness, and helpfulness. By focusing on personal growth and community support, people can better prepare themselves for the new opportunities that a gold-backed, transparent financial system provides. Preparing your mindset is just as critical as understanding the financial mechanics of the shift.
As we move further into this transitional period, it is essential to stay informed through reliable sources and remain patient as the final stages of the Global Currency Reset unfold.
The shift to the Quantum Financial System represents a move toward a more equitable and secure financial future for 209 nations.
For those looking for more in-depth insights, the full update provided by Holly Celiano offers a comprehensive look at how these changes are manifesting globally.

U.S.–Iran Conflict Enters New Phase as Red Sea Attacks Expand Regional Risk
With direct U.S. airstrikes paused, the conflict is widening through proxy attacks, threatening critical global shipping routes and adding new uncertainty to energy markets, trade flows, and financial stability.
Good Afternoon Dinar Recaps,
U.S.–Iran Conflict Enters New Phase as Red Sea Attacks Expand Regional Risk
With direct U.S. airstrikes paused, the conflict is widening through proxy attacks, threatening critical global shipping routes and adding new uncertainty to energy markets, trade flows, and financial stability.
Overview
No new U.S. airstrikes were reported overnight, suggesting Washington may be leaving room for diplomatic contacts while maintaining military pressure.
Iran-backed Houthi forces launched attacks on Saudi oil facilities along the Red Sea, raising concerns that another major energy corridor could face disruption.
Global markets remain focused on the combined risks surrounding the Strait of Hormuz and the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, two of the world's most important maritime energy chokepoints.
Key Developments
1. U.S. Military Operations Pause While Diplomatic Channels Remain Open
After 13 consecutive nights of U.S. airstrikes targeting Iranian military infrastructure, no additional strikes were reported overnight, marking the first operational pause since the latest escalation began.
According to multiple reports, indirect communications between Washington and Tehran continue through regional mediators, although officials acknowledge that major differences remain over sanctions, security guarantees, and regional military activity. While no breakthrough has been announced, the temporary pause suggests diplomacy has not been abandoned.
2. Houthis Open Another Front Against Saudi Arabia
Even as direct U.S.-Iran military activity slowed, Iran-backed Houthi forces escalated attacks against Saudi Arabia, launching missiles and drones toward Saudi Aramco facilities near Jizan and Yanbu on the Red Sea.
Saudi air defenses reportedly intercepted several incoming missiles, while Saudi military aircraft continued strikes against Houthi positions in Yemen following recent attacks on commercial shipping.
The developments demonstrate that regional proxy forces remain highly active, increasing uncertainty even during periods of reduced direct U.S.-Iran confrontation.
3. Two Global Energy Chokepoints Face Elevated Risk
Financial markets continue monitoring two of the world's most strategically important shipping routes:
The Strait of Hormuz, through which roughly one-fifth of global oil shipments normally pass.
The Bab el-Mandeb Strait, connecting the Red Sea with the Gulf of Aden and the Suez Canal.
While Bab el-Mandeb remains open, shipping companies continue reassessing routes after repeated Houthi attacks. Industry analysts note that simultaneous disruptions at both waterways would significantly affect global energy transportation, insurance costs, and international supply chains.
4. Energy Markets Continue Pricing Geopolitical Risk
Although oil prices have fluctuated with reports of paused U.S. strikes, traders remain highly sensitive to developments across the region.
Energy markets continue assigning a geopolitical premium to crude prices because any expansion of attacks against shipping infrastructure could quickly tighten global supplies. Investors also remain focused on possible inflationary effects should transportation costs continue rising.
Why It Matters
This conflict has evolved beyond a bilateral U.S.-Iran confrontation into a broader regional security challenge affecting global commerce. Even without new U.S. strikes, proxy conflicts involving shipping lanes, energy infrastructure, and regional allies continue to influence international markets.
For investors, central banks, and governments, the focus increasingly extends beyond military operations to the resilience of global trade routes, energy supplies, inflation, and financial stability.
Why It Matters to Foreign Currency Holders
For those following long-term global monetary changes, continued instability across major energy corridors reinforces why governments are emphasizing financial resilience, diversified reserves, secure payment systems, and stronger cross-border settlement infrastructure. While these developments do not indicate an imminent currency revaluation, they continue supporting structural reforms designed to reduce vulnerabilities during periods of geopolitical disruption.
Implications for the Global Reset
Pillar 2: Trade
Disruptions to major maritime shipping lanes highlight the importance of building more resilient global trade networks and reducing dependence on vulnerable transportation corridors.
Pillar 5: Energy
Growing instability around both the Strait of Hormuz and Bab el-Mandeb Strait demonstrates how energy security increasingly influences inflation, monetary policy, investment decisions, and the evolution of the international financial system.
Future Outlook
Attention now turns to whether diplomatic contacts can prevent renewed direct military operations while also containing proxy conflicts across the broader Middle East. Markets will closely monitor shipping activity, oil infrastructure, and official statements from Washington, Tehran, Saudi Arabia, and regional mediators for signs of either de-escalation or further expansion of the conflict.
This is not simply about military operations—it reflects the broader transformation of the global financial system as energy security, trade flows, and geopolitical stability increasingly shape the future of the world economy.

Iraq Pushes To Expand Exports Through Turkish Pipeline
2026-07-25 15:47 Shafaq News- Baghdad An Iraqi government delegation held talks in Turkiye on expanding crude oil exports through the Iraq-Turkiye pipeline, a government source told Shafaq News on Saturday.
The delegation was headed by Deputy Oil Minister for Extraction Affairs Nasser Aziz and included State Organization for Marketing of Oil (SOMO) Director General Nizar Al-Shatri, North Oil Company Director General Faisal Hamadi Ramadan, and senior officials from the ministry's legal, economic, and internal audit departments.
According to the source, discussions with Turkiye's Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources focused on the Iraq-Turkiye Pipeline Agreement, increasing the pipeline's export capacity beyond previous levels, and strengthening security along the route from Kirkuk to the Turkish port of Ceyhan.
The proposed increase is intended to offset the impact of regional security developments that have disrupted Iraqi crude exports and weighed on government revenues, the source said.
The talks preceded an expected visit by Iraqi Prime Minister Ali Al-Zaidi to Turkiye, where the two countries are expected to discuss a range of bilateral agreements, including cooperation in the energy sector.
Earlier this month, Oil Minister Bassem Khudair said Baghdad was accelerating plans to build a pipeline linking Iraqi oil fields to Mediterranean ports in Turkiye and Syria. Last week, the state-run North Oil Company (NOC) announced it had completed the technical and engineering preparations required to resume crude pumping from Kirkuk to the Turkish port of Ceyhan, saying the system was ready to begin operations.

Syria Launches Major Highway Restoration Plan
2026-07-26 08:00 Shafaq News- Damascus Syria is moving ahead with plans to rehabilitate several major highways to modernize its network and strengthen domestic and cross-border connectivity, the head of the General Establishment for Road Transport said on Sunday.
Director General Moaz Najjar said the projects will facilitate the movement of goods and agricultural and industrial products between Syrian provinces, reduce obstacles to land transport, and lower shipping costs. He added that upgrading the road corridors will increase transit traffic with neighboring countries, boosting regional and domestic trade while enhancing competitiveness.
Najjar said Jordan, Turkiye, Iraq, and the Gulf States will be among the main regional beneficiaries of the scheme, noting that the Nassib-Aleppo highway forms part of the international M45 corridor linking the Jordanian and Turkish borders.
According to Najjar, work on the Nassib-Damascus highway is expected to take about 400 days, while work on the Damascus-Homs, Homs-Aleppo, and Saraqib-Idlib road plan is projected to last around 500 days each. The rehabilitation and expansion of the Damascus-Palmyra and Palmyra-Deir ez-Zor highways is expected to take approximately 900 days.
Regarding commercial transport routes, he pointed out that the General Establishment for Road Transport is updating the economic feasibility studies for the North-South and East-West route projects ahead of their implementation as toll roads under the build-operate-transfer (BOT) model, aiming to improve commercial transport infrastructure and enhance freight movement across Syria.

Iraq Seeks 10 GW Regional Power Imports Under New GE Deal
2026-07-26 10:20 Shafaq News- Baghdad Iraq's new agreement with GE Vernova requires the US energy company to secure 10,000 megawatts of electricity imports from neighbouring countries by 2027, a member of parliament's Electricity and Energy Committee revealed to Shafaq News on Sunday.
The committee hosted Electricity Minister Ali Saadi Waheeb yesterday to discuss the country's worsening power shortages, including Baghdad's latest agreement with GE.
Committee member Riyadh Adday noted that lawmakers questioned the minister about the new contract, noting that Iraq has maintained agreements with the company since 2008 “without achieving tangible results.”
According to Adday, the minister said the latest agreement differs from previous contracts and includes a condition requiring GE to arrange the supply of 10 GW of electricity to Iraq from countries across the region by next year.
During the parliamentary session, Waheeb also said completing cross-border electricity interconnection projects and reducing transmission and distribution losses would help increase available generation and improve power supply.
Since 2023, GE has promoted plans to expand Iraq's electricity production by capturing associated gas that is currently flared. The company has previously said its mobile gas turbine technology could generate up to 10 GW of electricity if all associated gas burned in Iraq were utilised.

Power cuts have long been one of Iraq's public grievances, with summer temperatures frequently exceeding 50°C and millions of households relying on private generators to compensate for limited state electricity.
According to the Electricity Ministry, peak summer demand has surpassed 60,000 megawatts, while available generation remains nearly 40,000 megawatts short, a deficit the ministry attributes to illegal grid connections and reduced natural gas supplies following the regional conflict and disruptions linked to the closure of the Strait of Hormuz.

Iraq Economic News and Points To Ponder Late Saturday Evening 7-25-26
Economic Expert: Iraqi Government Studying Currency Change Proposal To Boost Liquidity And Strengthen The Dinar
An economic expert has told Channel8 that the Iraqi government is studying a proposal to change the country's currency as part of broader economic reforms aimed at recovering hidden cash, increasing state liquidity, and strengthening the Iraqi dinar against the U.S. dollar.
Economic Expert: Iraqi Government Studying Currency Change Proposal To Boost Liquidity And Strengthen The Dinar
An economic expert has told Channel8 that the Iraqi government is studying a proposal to change the country's currency as part of broader economic reforms aimed at recovering hidden cash, increasing state liquidity, and strengthening the Iraqi dinar against the U.S. dollar.
Proposal Emerged After U.S. Visit
Speaking to Channel8, economic expert Haider al-Sheikh said Prime Minister Ali Faleh al-Zaidi's recent visit to the United States produced several economic outcomes, including the lifting of U.S. sanctions on seven Iraqi banks, allowing them to resume international transactions and rejoin the correspondent banking system.
Al-Sheikh said discussions following the visit also led to a proposal to overhaul Iraq's currency as part of efforts to improve financial liquidity.
According to al-Sheikh, the proposal currently being studied includes two possible approaches.
The first would introduce a redesigned Iraqi currency with new banknote designs across existing denominations.
The second would remove one zero from the currency as part of a redenomination process.
He stressed that the proposal does not involve printing larger denominations, such as IQD 50,000 or IQD 100,000 banknotes, but instead focuses on replacing the existing currency.
Recovering Hidden Cash
Al-Sheikh said the primary objective is to bring large amounts of cash held outside the banking system back into circulation.
He argued that much of Iraq's liquidity is held by individuals rather than the state, while government cash reserves remain limited.
Under the proposal, authorities would establish a limited period during which citizens could exchange existing banknotes for the new currency through government banks.
He said unusually large exchanges would be subject to scrutiny, allowing authorities to investigate the source of the funds and identify assets linked to corruption.
Al-Sheikh linked the proposal to al-Zaidi's anti-corruption "Dawn Campaign," which has led to the arrest of more than 40 suspects and the discovery of large quantities of cash allegedly hidden in private properties.
Expected Economic Impact
Al-Sheikh said changing the currency could help increase government liquidity, stabilize the exchange market, and strengthen the Iraqi dinar against the U.S. dollar.
He added that the government hopes the measure would improve public confidence in the national currency and reduce the volume of cash circulating outside the formal banking system.
Al-Sheikh noted that a separate proposal to adjust Iraq's official exchange rate had been discussed under former Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani, including the possibility of setting the rate at IQD 140,000 per $100.
He said that proposal is no longer being pursued, and the current government's focus has shifted toward changing the currency itself rather than altering the exchange rate.
Additional Financing and Legislative Process
Al-Sheikh also claimed that Iraq secured between $2 billion and $3 billion in loans and financial grants from the United States during the prime minister's visit. He added that Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, and other countries are also expected to provide additional financing.
According to al-Sheikh, the currency proposal remains under study and will be reviewed by the Ministerial Council for the Economy, the Ministry of Finance, the Central Bank of Iraq, and a joint consultative committee before being submitted to the Council of Ministers and later to Parliament if approved.
He estimated that, if adopted, implementation could take approximately five to six months.
Al-Sheikh said Iraq's currency remains among the weakest-performing in the Middle East and argued that a well-planned currency reform, supported by research from the Central Bank and the Ministry of Finance, could contribute to increasing the value of the Iraqi dinar against the U.S. dollar.
He emphasized that the proposal remains under government review and has not yet been formally approved. https://channel8.com/english/news/62022
