The Association Of Banks And Our Banks Will Not Be Subject To Blackmail
Sameer Al-Nusairi We are accustomed, and the Iraqi viewer and reader is accustomed, from time to time, to some of the media, whose orientations and objectives are well-known, with a clear intent to offend the national economic institutions, our private banks, and the national personalities active in supporting and attributing the national economy through their responsibility in non-governmental and non-profit economic organizations such as the Association of Private Banks Al-Iraqiya,
to which he belongs according to its bylaws and certificate of incorporation issued several years ago by the Non-Governmental Organizations Department in the Council of Ministers and through its membership in the Board of Directors of the Union of Arab Banks and the International Union of Arab Bankers.
It has many books of thanks, evaluation and appreciation from a large number of Arab and international organizations, namely The most active at the level of leading services and efforts provided by private banks in activating the implementation and achieving the goals of the Central Bank’s lending initiatives,
which are implemented through banks, and which contributed to the employment of 60 thousand unemployed, and that the role of the association is to encourage and motivate banks and provide assistance to citizens in guiding them to obtain loans to develop their small, medium and housing projects without charge because it is a non-profit voluntary organization.
The same applies to the Tamkeen Fund, which is financially managed by the Central Bank of Iraq by donating its capital and money from banks, which provides its rehabilitation services.
And cultural and humanitarian to citizens and institutions of the state and society and that the work team of the Association is a voluntary team of young people and experts, which has clear success experiences and works with competent Iraqi national cadres.
Unfortunately, the exploitation of media democracy and the space for freedom of opinion and the other opinion allowed the media to be free, non-competent and driven by special interests inside and outside Iraq.
What they say and disclose is paid for, and they always hunt in troubled water and target our national economy and its institutions that have made clear achievements during the crises that Iraq went through after mid-2014. And it continues to step forward in serving the community and has contributed to achieving economic steadfastness and supported our national economy.
We have been occupied with the headlines of these trumpets, their press and media reports, and their programs aimed at targeting the Central Bank, the banking sector, and the Association of Banks on repetitive and consuming topics, and that the aim of their criticisms and accusations from time to time is personal slander and public blackmail. Coverage of accomplishments.
Although I respect the other opinion issued by non-specialists or those who specialize in economics and monetary policy in particular, but I may disagree with the opinion that tries to dwarf, minimize and personalize the achievements made by the Central Bank, banks and the Association of Banks in facing the economic and financial crisis during the past years, which is the most difficult stage it went through Iraq .
Therefore, I invite them to look, even for once, at preserving the reputation of the Iraqi economy and its national institutions in front of the countries of the world, because it is illogical for us to allow abuse of our economic institutions and the national private sector without evidence and official documents proving that and through unreal and Hollywood-fabricated data and information.
In conclusion, I invite them to leave the successful economic institutions working with great energy and redoubled efforts for the sake of Iraq, because the institutions, organizations, and the national and real private sector will never submit to blackmail, and that the only and proper way is to always agree to serve Iraq and its patient and proud people.
