rcookie says(): AGAINST 15% IN BANKING SYSTEM…
clay01 says to rcookie(): IMO, the “Public” can’t have that much Dinar out there, it may be in the hands of a few, but the general public doesn’t have it
rcookie says to clay01(): THE CONSTANT CRY OF LIQUIDITY CRISIS SUPPORTS THAT MINDSET…
clay01 says to rcookie(): Yes, exactly
rcookie says(): GUESS THEY’LL HAVE TO KEEP BLOWING UP BANKS…..
clay01 says to rcookie(): with all of the incentives the CBI is putting out there to get the dinar off the street, they would have seen something, but the results of said attempts, indicate there is no liquidy
tman23 says(): Remember back when Abadi as Chairman of Finance announced removing the 3 zeros 9/2012 to begin 2013 (providing the new currency was ready in time) and 10/2012 Shabibi took off to Japan for a “”meeting””…… (thats when Maliki had the courts place the arrest warrant)………..
Right before all this Shabibi was speaking about retiring come November 2012, saying his time was up ………. Point being, lifting, removing 3 zeros or whatever it involves…….
We will call it monetary reform …….AND by the IMF’s articles on the subject (3 zeros and monetary reform) it is a very fragile operation with no guaranteed succcess……
So why would Shabibi the sitting governor be talking about leaving in Nov 2012 and Abadi announcing lifting the 3 zeros….. Point being……
They have been in this cat and mouse game through media for quite sometime regarding their currency………. AND even their citizens are confused.. Disfunctional ?? or Misleading with purpose ??
clay01 says to tman23(): what purpose to mislead their citizens, what do they benefit
clay01 says to tman23(): asking, please
clay01 says to tman23(): I understand the mistrust from the citizens not to trust the banks over there, after not being able to get funds back out of the bank when they needed it, but what else do they fear
angus says(): Do you guys think that post change in currency that the Iraq people will at that point trust the banks and use them?
clay01 says to angus(): trust is earned, IMO
tman23 says to clay01(): Good question and do not have an answer……..so then it must be “disfunctional” !!??
clay01 says to tman23(): to me, that is the more logical choice, they seem very disfunctional all the time
clay01 says to tman23(): they would rather stand aroung and point fingers at each other, than get to the root of fixing their problems, reminds me of our Congress, lol
clay01 says(): they have people in very important positions that are not qualified to do the job, so the job doen’t get done, and that leads to other jobs not getting done, they are only as strong as their weakest link, Abadi looks to be fixing that, at least he has some since to see where they are, and where they need to be, a sign of a good leader, IMO

da58 says(there was an article that reported the blown up banks had 25 bill dinars.. something like that – well, I’m really wondering if these banks had ANY sizeable amount of dinars or dollars..
First, they were taken over by ISIS when? OVER a year ago.. isn’t one of the first things invaders do is to raid the banks? Pretty sure that one happened.. it’s a given in war.
Second, we just blew up a bank of ISIS in Mosul a little over a month ago, and another ‘secret’ storage of cash they had somewhere that our guys found out about thru some secret intelligence… bam, gone.
So – if that happened to you, would you run and stash your cash in another bank – knowing the enemy is flying around in the sky with bombs wanting to destroy your funds?? HMMMMM…..
I sure wouldn’t, and I don’t think whoever is running ISIS is stupid. My ‘GUESS’ – is they wanted to destroy the financial connections, of these super computors that had been upgraded or installed in all the banks,, cut them off from the world

rcookie says(): WE WERE TALKING ABOUT CITIZEN CONFIDENCE OR LACK THEREOF IN IRAQI BANKS EARLIER THIS MORNING….THE FOLLOWING WERE STATEMENTS FROM 2005 UPDATE….
members of the Iraq Reconstruction and Management Office-Financial and Fiscal Affairs (IRMO-FFA) in coordination and cooperation with members of the: Iraqi Private Bankers Association; U.S. Treasury Department, and; Federal Reserve Bank of New York.
rcookie says(): I. General CommentsIraq has a cash driven society where banks are seldom viewed as places to store consumer wealth and communications between branches of even the same bank are often difficult to conduct and rely mostly on face-to-face meetings to update account balances rather than the use of automated networks.
The flow of funds in Iraq’s economy in general is more often than not, one of funds flowing out from banks with very little recirculation as is experienced in other societies. Why does this happen? It’s a result of “learned behavior” including consumer experiences dating back to the end of the first Iran-Iraq war.
During this timeframe, the former dictator found the country nearly broke and faced with making millions in stipend payments to returning soldiers. To generate cash, he instructed all banks to stop making payments other than those needed to pay government workers. Most who stored their wealth in the banking system lost everything. Accordingly, the current distrust
rcookie says(): in the banking system will take time and consumer education to overcome.
rcookie says(): Realize however, that the future of Iraq’s National financial system is anything but bleak. Foreign banking interests are starting to make efforts to position themselves in Iraq which will bring more of the modern, world-class banking capabilities to consumers of financial services.
Also, on November 29, 2004 President Bush signed Executive Order (EO) 13364 protecting the assets of the Central Bank of Iraq (CBI). Now, for the first time since the inception of the sanction period, CBI will be able to invest their own assets abroad via their account at the Federal Reserve in New York.
Previous to the signing of this EO, CBI funds were subject to seizure by the creditor nations (such as Russia, France and Germany). The EO itself is an important milestone in basic economic recovery and can be viewed at:

These revolutionary changes require all parties to have a thorough understanding of the financial system on the ground in Iraq. This paper will address payment types and considerations, share the latest information we have available on Electronic Funds Transfer and provide some bank contact information for use.
rcookie says(): THIS WAS FROM 2005……………..
rcookie says(): B. LocalExchangeConsiderationsExcept for some areas in Irbil where USD is used as petty cash funds in government offices and perhaps small pockets of areas elsewhere, payments made in USD cannot be readily spent within local economies, but must be exchanged for New Iraqi Dinar (NID).
The local economy does include those in the business of exchanging money who operate apart from and in competition with the banking system. When exchanges are made, brand new $100 bills come closest to trading at the official exchange rate and denominations less than this bring far less with hardly any trading being available for $5 and $1 bills.
It’s been reported that even Central Bank of Iraq (“CBI” is the equivalent of the U.S. Federal Reserve Bank) will not accept exchanges for denominations of $20 bills and less.
When possible, payments should be made in the local currency to avoid the need for exchange at the lowest payee levels. CBI is currently willing to make currency exchanges for a charge of 1%.
rcookie says(): The bid and offer auction rates are posted to the web by CBI and can be accessed using this link: http://www.cbiraq.org/cbs6.htm
Your home bank can communicate with CBI using the Bank Identification Code (BIC) “CBIRIQBAXXX”. This BIC code is tied to the SWIFT network. According to Iraq’s Private Banking Association, Dollar to Dinar exchanges can often be accomplished for half the CBI rate or 1⁄2%.

rcookie says(): HERE IS THE SECTION ON EFT (ELECTRONIC FUNDS TRANSFER)
rcookie says(): V. Payments by Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT)EFT in simplest terms is an electronic payment instruction; it does not automatically create a physical presence of cash although some appear to be under the mistaken impression that it does.
In the U.S., these payment instructions usually trigger cash available for withdrawal almost immediately because banks keep cash reserves on-hand locally to support personal and commercial transactions. Not always so in Iraq.
What may take minutes in the U.S. may take a couple of days here, so be sure you keep your local banker informed of your needs so that they can forecast their cash requirements and better serve you.
Currently, there are a number of private banks that can support EFT type transactions through cross-border correspondent banks. The rates they charge for providing these services vary from bank to bank, and depending on the transfer amount, the rates may be negotiable. While the focus is on EFT into Iraq, the institutions discussed be

The concept makes sense the problem is other than three to four gurus there is no real way to resesarch what is real.

da58 says(): soooo BGG – ya getting ready to announce a drive by call??? (lol) hint hint…
rcookie says(): THIS IS FROM THE CIA WEBSITE…CONCERNING MOF BANKING RESPONSIBILITIES AND ROLE….AND CBI ORGANIZATION & STRUCTURE…..
David[X25SNDAUGTUKHUQWI6BTABCMVI@yahoo..] says(): MOF?
JETSET says to rcookie(): thanks for the hard work and info! very helpful!
da58 says(): minister of finance
rcookie says(): MINISTRY OF FINANCE..
rcookie says(): OK…
David[X25SNDAUGTUKHUQWI6BTABCMVI@yahoo..] says(): Appreciate it. I went brain dead
rcookie says(): In response to Rafidian Bank’s inability to service the country’s banking needs, in the early 1970s the CBI and the MoF proposed to the government that a new state-owned bank be licensed.
As a result, in 1988 Rasheed Bank, also owned by the MoF, was licensed. In addition to serving the private sector, Rasheed Bank and Rafidian Bank soon took over much of the banking business of state-owned enterprises, relieving CBI of that function.
rcookie says(): The Ministry of Finance was responsible for overseeing budgets of several ministries as well as the state-operated banking system. Currently, the six state-owned banks (Rafidian, Rasheed, the Agricultural, the Industrial, the Real Estate, and the Socialist) account for about 93 percent of banking system assets. There are also 18 private banks with capitalization of $25 million and deposits of $107 million.
rcookie says(): The 18 private banks were established in an effort to handle local depositors’ financial needs and reform as well as modernize the banking sector. These banks remained small, in part because most Iraqis did not think it was safe to put their money in banks. Figure 36 lists both the state and privately owned banks of Iraq, including branches, establishment date and capital assets remaining after OIF
BGG says(): He is all set.
David[X25SNDAUGTUKHUQWI6BTABCMVI@yahoo..] says(): Does the IMF want the government banks privatized?
rcookie says(): Organization of the CBI
The CBI was composed of five main departments, plus support elements (see Figure 37).
Department of Investment. This department maintained account information for foreign accounts.
Department of Accounting. This department maintained the employee accounts of the CBI.
Department of Exchange. This department licensed money exchangers.
David[X25SNDAUGTUKHUQWI6BTABCMVI@yahoo..] says(): I will shut up

da58 says(): It’s always easy to spot a Dinar Updater.. they’re the ones running around in barefeet.. cuz – their SOCKS get BLOWN OFF every darn day by the news in this room! great post rcookie and thanks!
scottiegirl says(): BGG or rcookie: Is it possible based on an early morning article that the MOF can take over the currency auctions? I saw where it was mentioned that that was not possible. Opinions please?
David[X25SNDAUGTUKHUQWI6BTABCMVI@yahoo..] says(): Because you were talking and everyone wants to hear you not me
rcookie says to David[X25SNDAUGTUKHUQWI6BTABCMVI@yahoo..](12:15 PM): ALAK SAID GOOD THEORETIC CONCEPT BUT NOT REALITY….
rcookie says to David[X25SNDAUGTUKHUQWI6BTABCMVI@yahoo..](12:15 PM): SORRY…FOR DCOTTIE
David[X25SNDAUGTUKHUQWI6BTABCMVI@yahoo..] says(): don’t apologize
scottiegirl says to rcookie(): So what’s next?
rcookie says(): Iraqi Ministry of Finance’s Banking Role
The Iraqi MoF was headed by Hikmat Mizban Ibrahim al-Azzawi from 1995 to 2003. Azawi was responsible for managing the funds for the Iraqi government held in the CBI.
All revenue for the government went into accounts in the CBI. Apart from normal budgetary requirements, a major duty for the Finance Minister was to disperse money for Saddam.
The Presidential Diwan had special accounts separate from the normal government accounts. Routinely, letters from Saddam would arrive at the MoF ordering the transfer of funds from government accounts to Presidential Diwan accounts located at the CBI.
MYDINR says(): Holly1, what site or FB account were you referring to in last night’s newstime? I am trying to find it. TY
rcookie says(): The Presidency was also the authorizing authority for transferring money to other ministries. Any order for funds received by the MoF was sent to the Director of the CBI, Isam Rashid al-Huwaysh. Any disputes between al-Huwaysh and al-Azawi were settled by Saddam.
When hard currency was collected in the CBI, it was allocated to the ministries that needed hard currency to buy things internationally, such as the Ministry of Health. Because hard currency was in such short supply, the ministries that received it had to pay it back in Iraqi Dinars.
flint says(): for those in Texas that are seeking employment you might look into working at NRG stadium in Houston to prepare for Superbowl 51. I am already hearing ads looking for people.
David[X25SNDAUGTUKHUQWI6BTABCMVI@yahoo..] says(): You knowledge on the the country is amazing. Has the old guard lost leverage throughout the MOF CBI etc and does Abadi
rcookie says(): The CBI did not make extra payments directly to any ministries or to the Diwan, including the IIS and the MIC. Payments were made to the MOF accounts at the Rasheed and Rafidian Banks, and then distributed.
At the end of the month, the CBI would send an account of what was sent to the Rasheed and Rafidian Banks to the MoF. After two or three days the MoF would instruct the CBI to print Iraqi Treasury Bonds as an accounting procedure to balance the books. Iraq did not have a more formal economic or rigorous monetary policy.
David[X25SNDAUGTUKHUQWI6BTABCMVI@yahoo..] says(): have the the US and IMF total support
rcookie says(): JUT SOME INSIGHT TO THE CBI/MOF INTERFACE..
David[X25SNDAUGTUKHUQWI6BTABCMVI@yahoo..] says(): Understand
David[X25SNDAUGTUKHUQWI6BTABCMVI@yahoo..] says(): The interface will will change structure ??
David[X25SNDAUGTUKHUQWI6BTABCMVI@yahoo..] says(): I guess the UST and FEd are not a representative example of where Iraq is headed . I will read the link
rcookie says): THE 2 BIG STATE BANKS ARE BEING BROKEN UP & PRIVATIZED…BECAUSE THEY DOMINATE & CONTROL TOO MUCH OF IRAQS CURRENCY AND FIACIAL PROGRAMS WHICH HAVE UNDERMINED THE OTHER BANKS ABILITY TO EXECUTE DEVELOPMENT & INVESTMENT PROGRAMS…
WHILE PROVIDING VERY LITTLE RETURN IN REVENUES TO GDP…..WHICH THEY HOPE TOO GROW BY EMPOWERING MORE BANKS……..
David[X25SNDAUGTUKHUQWI6BTABCMVI@yahoo..] says(): IPO’s ? or auctions
David[X25SNDAUGTUKHUQWI6BTABCMVI@yahoo..] says(): or mandated spin offs
David[X25SNDAUGTUKHUQWI6BTABCMVI@yahoo..] says(): The country hired JPmorgan but not sure what they will do firat
foxmulder says to jarhead(): who ya talken too lol ? well i can drink more but i may end up on the floor !
David[X25SNDAUGTUKHUQWI6BTABCMVI@yahoo..] says(): first

foxmulder says to rcookie(): why Alak is still there is a mystery to me
rcookie says to foxmulder(): AGREED…
David[X25SNDAUGTUKHUQWI6BTABCMVI@yahoo..] says(): the IMF MOU has how much control? Are they pushing bottons?
jarhead says to foxmulder(): skipped conversation i guess lol
jarhead says(): give me an oops
foxmulder says to jarhead(): lol lmao
foxmulder says to jarhead(): nah hilarious for a minute i was lost
wmawhite says to foxmulder(): It tells me that the IMF is steering this ship (the CBI) more than the Governnor of the CBI). Once the IMF is ready to step aside then you will see the changes at the CBI.
wmawhite says to foxmulder(): IMO
rcookie says(): THE IMF LOI…MEFP…TECH LOI AND SMP…IS THE ACTION PLAN AND PLAYBOOK…BEING EXEUTED UPON DAILY…IN BUDGET AND ECONOMIC/FINANCIAL POLICY ACTIONS…
wmawhite says to David[X25SNDAUGTUKHUQWI6BTABCMVI@yahoo..](): The Technicla Letter of Agreement are no different than a contract…..there is no wingle room……..it states that the government “will” do.
David[X25SNDAUGTUKHUQWI6BTABCMVI@yahoo..] says(): Thanks wmawhite The ME can’t get out of dysfunction without a model platform which is Iraq . Then the IMF has a standard to use against all other developing countries if they want to cjhange value.
rcookie says to wmawhite(): THE POINT IS THEY HAVE BEEN ON PROGRAM…AND WILL CONTINUE THROUGH 2020…
David[X25SNDAUGTUKHUQWI6BTABCMVI@yahoo..] says(): Thanks I feel calm now Mr White. Seriously you guys have huge clout because you are the real thing
jarhead says(): thats a fact!!!!!!!
JETSET says(): WMAW/RC – that to me is the key difference in the news these last few weeks and months…. there is no doubt that we have the “this is iraq” component to everything we here.
however, now we have the IMF and the WB and UN in the news and like you said, when they speak, they follow through. Big difference IMO!
wmawhite says to David[X25SNDAUGTUKHUQWI6BTABCMVI@yahoo..](): Prior to publishing the Letter of Agreement the IMF stated that they expect Iraq to enter the economy market…………
well, they are not part of those markets because they have nothing to join with…….so, we are going to see soon what we are looking for.
rcookie says to David[X25SNDAUGTUKHUQWI6BTABCMVI@yahoo..](): TO SPEAK TO YOUR POINT…THAT IS EXACTLY WHY THE NATIONS PARTICIPATING IN THE IMF METAC WORKSHOPS ARE DOING SO…….
David[X25SNDAUGTUKHUQWI6BTABCMVI@yahoo..] says(): okay
wmawhite says to David[X25SNDAUGTUKHUQWI6BTABCMVI@yahoo..](): ty
scottiegirl says to magnetlady(): Being the IMF is steering the ship, who is in charge of stopping the auctions? Is Alak doing what he is told by the IMF as it seems there is some resistance to stopping the auctions?
scottiegirl says(): oops…..that was for cookie or Mr. White.
rcookie says to David[X25SNDAUGTUKHUQWI6BTABCMVI@yahoo..](): SCOTTIE..THE IRONY IS…WHO HAS BEN FIGHTING TO KEEP THE AUCTIONS GOING…..
magnetlady says(): That’s OK, they both know SG that I don’t have the anwer.
David[X25SNDAUGTUKHUQWI6BTABCMVI@yahoo..] says(): Mr White it is just the truth. The Financial Times and other credible media companies have been replaced b\y thge BGG Group
scottiegirl says to rcookie(): Exactly! As I’m sure the IMF is not shocked by this either
rcookie says to David[X25SNDAUGTUKHUQWI6BTABCMVI@yahoo..](): THE RESISTANCE COMES FROM…
scottiegirl says to magnetlady(): LOL!
wmawhite says to scottiegirl(): In the Letter of Agreement.it is same plain as they could say it…….move away form the MCPs which are in place because of the auctions.
luvmydream says(): auctions are down tremendously
rcookie says to scottiegirl(): HAVE TO DECONSTRUCT..AND WORK BACKWORDS…WHO BENEITS MOST FROM THEIR EXISTANCE AND STAYING ACTIVE….
jarhead says(): do i understand we want the auctions to stop ??
scottiegirl says to wmawhite(): Looks like they need to move away from Alak. Hoping that will be sooner than later as he’s had ample opportunity to switch to the right team and he hasn’t
rcookie says to jarhead(): YES SIR!!!!
jarhead says(): kool
scottiegirl says to rcookie(): The crooks

David[X25SNDAUGTUKHUQWI6BTABCMVI@yahoo..] says(): There are so many its a bit scary
wmawhite says(): Folks,……Alak/Keywords…is a non-factor……………..he is not (IMO) even on the field……the IMF and Abadi are on the field. Alak is on the sidelines holding a clipboard.
David[X25SNDAUGTUKHUQWI6BTABCMVI@yahoo..] says(): Nice
scottiegirl says to wmawhite(): lol! Drunk in the stands with a clipboard?
magnetlady says(): WMA but he that holds the clipboard, appears to be calling the shots.
rcookie says to jarhead(): (y)
JETSET says to wmawhite(): exactly! he is so far out of his league it isn’t even funny any more!
wmawhite says to magnetlady(): Unless you know what you are looking at.
wmawhite says to scottiegirl(): (lol)
magnetlady says(): OK, thanks
