tman23 says():There were two committees set up within the Iraqi government for the deleting of the three zeros. The Parliamentary Economic Committee and the Parliamentary Finance Committee.
Back in 2012 the economic committee thought was deleting the 3 zeros would strenghten the dinar, the finance committee was concerned about money laundering and counterfeiting….
Both of these committees need to be in agreement before the lifting of the 3 zeros…
Recall November 2014 Jabouri (Parliament) hosted the CBI governor (Moshen Alak) questioning why the CBI had not removed the 3 zeros….Recall March 2015 the CBI announced the green light to begin the process to remove the 3 zeros…(committees in agreement)…
The Banks in Iraq have gone through a major audit and reform with Ernest and Young finishing up with the two largest state banks in Iraq before this November 2016…..
Recall 2012 the Securities Exchange in Baghdad had a problem with the CBI and their new currency plan interfering with the value of the price of stock…. as we have read, the ISX went through reforms also which were completed this September 2016….
REFORMING THE MANAGEMENT OF BANKS IN IRAQ IS TO REFORM THE MANAGEMENT OF THE IRAQ CURRENCY……. THE NEW CURRENCY MUST COME FIRST AS A PRELUDE (as stated by the CBI)…. ……….
The 100 (000) note the CBI spoke of a few weeks ago…… ON THE DU BLOG… (Not talking about 100k dinar)The source, who not to be named, said, “The Central Bank does not deal with that group, and that the highest category in the dollar coin is ($ 100),
so the Central Bank does not deal with that category one million dollars because that does not exist.”…..
Iraqi market news (RUMORS) for the currency of the category … (1) million ….people exchanged presence (RUMOR IN CONVERSATIONS) as part of a new currency will be worked out in the country.
CITIZENS DO NOT EXACTLY WHAT IS COMING AND ARE CONFUSED……. THIS SUBJECT WILL GET WHITE HOT COME 9/28 -10/6……
