Report from the American Contractor October 24th 2011
The Iraqi Minister of Oil recently announced that Iraq had
increased their oil output to 2.9 million barrels a day. However,
that figure is exaggerated. Iraq only exported 2.2 million barrels
a day due to the limitations of the infrastructure. Iraq is hoping
to reach 3 million barrels a day in out put oil production by the
end of the month. This remains to be seen as going from 2.9 to 3
million barrels a day in output capacity with the current
limitations will be difficult. In any case, this is a milestone for
Iraq.
http://www.foxbusiness.com/industries/2011/10/22/iraq-oil-output-capacity-jumps-to-250-million-bd-oil-minister/
The Troops here in Iraq are definitely leaving at the end of the
year and with this goes the hundreds of millions of dollars the
troops or the US government brought to Iraq. This will have a
lasting effect on the Iraqi economy. This scenario could be short
lived if the Iraqi government can acquire foreign investments. The
Iraqi government will now have to find the funds to fill the void.
After numerous meetings and consulting with various entities the
consensus is that there will not be any movement with the Iraqi
Dinar currency. The Iraq currency reform report will not commence
this year as the Iraqi parliament will not schedule this for
discussions. This remains in the hands of the Council of
Ministries who have already reviewed the currency reform report
courtesy of Governor Sinan al-Shabibi. In addition, the Currency
Reform report has also been reviewed by a committee that has been
set up by the Iraqi Parliament. There will be no action taken this
year as more debates and discussions are continuing with the
government and private enterprise. This is the reason for the
continued articles in the media referencing the same facts over and
over. The Central Bank of Iraq (CBI) continues to move at a snails
pace when it comes to removing the 25k notes from circulation and
at such time will be replacing those denominations with another
newer Iraqi currency. There are six new denominations being
considered and when the decision is finalized they will be printed.
Many claim this is premature as the Iraqi Parliament, Council of
Ministries and the legal department are still reviewing and
debating the Central Bank of Iraq Currency Reform report.
The Iraqi Parliament did accomplish one major goal and that is the
appointment of the new Ministry of Electricity, Abd Al-Karim Aftan.
The appointment of this new Minister casts doubt on Iyad Allawi who
is showing to be less relevant in the political process. Al-Karim
Aftan is from the al-Hal Party which is a small faction of the
Iraqi National Movement. The new Electricity Minister also has a
brother who is the Minister of Industry. You can count on both
brothers to be supportive of PM Maliki which will enforce his grip
of power. PM Maliki is also looking forward to completing his
second term and possibly a third.
Prime Minister Maliki does not want the U.S. Troops to remain past
the agreed deadline of 31 Dec. If he didn't voice this he would
lose all support from the same political groups that are keeping
him in his position as Prime Minister.
http://www.alsumarianews.com/ar/1/29164/news-details-.html
The Kuwaiti government is continuing with the construction of their
new port of Mubarak despite the Iraqi government politicians
opposition. The only Iraqi government officials who currently have
no problems with the new Kuwaiti port is Prime Minister Maliki and
the Ministry of foreign Affairs Zebari. But rumor has it that
Zebari has been accepting gifts from the Kuwaiti government. The
Kuwaiti government gave Zebari the gifts in exchange for his
influence in continuing with the Kuwait Port of Mubarak. This is
not the good economic partnership for both the Iraqi new Port and
the Kuwaiti Port of Mubarak that you're led to believe. The fact is
that it blocks the shipping lanes and makes navigation to the Iraqi
port very difficult.
A talk show host recently reported that Iran was a third world
country and that they have no money. I was astonished at this claim
because this host is supposedly an expert on Iraq, or so he claims.
In regards to Iran, the GDP of Iran is almost 900 billion dollars.
Now, compare this to Iraq which is barely 110 billion dollars.
Clearly, Iran is far from being broke. When you hear these
different reports from these various hosts on different topics
please fact check or verify them. If this reporter was so educated
on the topic of Iran then he would've known that Iran and Turkey
have already traded 15 billion dollars in the first 8 months of
2011.

Editorial: Where is the problem in deleting three zeros from the Iraqi dinar?
Posted: October 20, 2011 by THE CURRENCY NEWSHOUND - Just Hopin in Iraqi Dinar/Politics
11-10-2011 | (Voice of Iraq)
I had mentioned in a previous article on the following link:
http://bit.ly/p06Nxj
Entitled “Iraqi dinar between the present and future,”
To the need to move forward with the project important cash of
deleting three zeros from the Danarena Iraq, and it is encouraging that
the Central Bank of Iraq seems serious and determined to move forward
with this matter after a thorough study of the consequences of this
action on the Iraqi market and the strength of the currency of Iraq and
then provide proposed to the House of Representatives for decision and
ratification and adoption, has been described in my previous article
above that benefits the great return to the status of the Iraqi dinar
and the strength and credibility after the adoption of this procedure is
important cash, and of curbing inflation in the local market in Iraq
and facilitate the handling of cash and financial transactions Iraqi and
restored (prestige), the Iraqi dinar and the reduction of the magnitude
of the current Iraqi mass cash and the reduction of the phenomenon
(dollarization) that still dominate the large cash transactions in the
current Iraqi market.
But very happy people do not realize,
and every idea is supported by opposed, and both teams have reasonable
arguments in this regard. So, I would like to touch on in this article
to the “health” of the views of opposition to the adoption of this
procedure is important that I consider myself an enthusiastic supporter
of him and his defenders. I would like to touch on in this article for
some of the arguments of opponents of this idea in good faith (the
arguments of ill-intentioned opponents of each idea that optimization of
the Iraqi reality a little or a lot, there is no need to discuss it
because those are not the benefit of discussion with them already, you
will not accept you. “Baathists and Salafis” until you follow their
religion), with a pink profile on each of the points which I will
address below:
First:
Opponents of this idea that the process of improving the Iraqi
economy and the fight against inflation should be made through the
plans and development projects, real for the advancement of industry and
agriculture of Iraq and the service sector (semi-inactivated we have in
today’s Iraq), etc., and not just “Vzlkh” delete three zeros from the
Iraqi currency current . The Japanese do not see the need to remove two
zeros from the yen exchange rate to become comparable to the U.S.
dollar, and Zimbabwe did not stop the inflation did not satisfy people
hungry after that removed six zeros from its currency.
Answer:
Who said that originally dropped three zeros from the currency
obviates the need to develop plans and projects to promote the real
development actually the Iraqi economy? The deletion of three zeros is
the process will work to reduce the magnitude of the cash block traded
and thus facilitate the deal the state and citizens with financial
transactions and large amounts of cash and to remind the Iraqis
psychologically past (bright) to Danarhm Iraq, which is not a substitute
for nor preclude the necessity advancement of the Iraqi economy through
other means, which is understood by economists.
Second:
Opponents say that the process of deleting three zeros will
lead to breakdowns and confusion in the local market and the spread of
the phenomenon of “monetary illusion” because of the existence of “two
currencies” old and new traders and would play into the prices of goods
and commodities.
Answer:
This speech, Ward and possible if the process of converting to numbers
is regular (as happened when the transition from the Deutsche mark or
French franc, for example to the euro exchange rate of fractional
complex), exploited merchants of this calculation to raise prices and
gain higher money at the expense of the citizens, but in the Iraq
operation is is just (remove / add) three zeros to convert between the
expense of the Iraqi dinar old and new, and does not require any complex
financial calculation, to distinguish between the price of the
commodity business and the old dinar dinar new price. I do not think
that there is one in Iraq today is capable of hitting any number divided
by a thousand or a thousand in less than one second!
Third:
Opponents say that the process of replacing the currency will
lead to the occurrence of chaos in the street because the Iraqi people
stand in queues at the gates of new banks to replace the current Iraqi
banknotes with those of the new banknotes. And established the
phenomenon of black market speculators, taking advantage of the chaos
that would arise from a changing of the currency.
Answer:
This will not happen again. The process of standing in queues
at the gates of the banks to replace the currency occurred during the
revolution of July 14, 1958 to replace the currency in the currency of
the new republic property. In our case, the contemporary of this, there
will be a “transitional period” determined by the Central Bank of Iraq a
few years, in which both currencies old and new two windows, while the
central bank gradually to absorb the currency notes of old pump leaves
the new currency to the market, just like what happened in the European
countries decided to join the currency “euro”. To this day, in the Czech
Republic, for example, still crown the Czech currency, the euro both of
two windows and the prices are written with both currencies (although
the calculation of complex unlike the case of Iraq), while the ultimate
goal is to get rid of the crown of the Czech and the adoption of the
euro currency in full at the end in 2012 .
Fourth:
Some opponents say that the idea was good in the basis that the
timing is not appropriate because of the recession and widespread
unemployment, a process that would cost the state large sums of money to
print a new currency.
Answer:
Economic recession and the concept of relative not absolute.
Even the richest countries in the world and the most freedom and
development, such as Japan and the United States complain press is
always a recession or depression by comparison with the previous figures
for subjects of comparison and of the complaint, while proud of the
media’s totalitarian state Stalinism of its people hungry and the slave,
such as North Korea’s economic prosperity under the leadership of the
“party”, for example. Thus, there is no clear definition of the
parameters we have to decide which is absolutely good that the economic
situation has become a favorable time to take this step. And my view
that the timing is very appropriate now, and can not be regarded as the
Iraqi economy today, “stagnant” or “Kassado” compared with the phase of
the unjust economic blockade, which ended the fall of the idol and
liberate Iraq from the grip of the former regime.
The question should be printing a new currency (and being a costly
operation), they are of a necessity (as I mentioned in my previous
article on the link above), an opportunity to hit several birds with one
stone, some of which get rid of those three zeros unpleasant, including
normalize currency of the latest and the most beautiful and the
benefits of stronger security and more, including work on the
introduction of the Kurdish language (the second official language of
the Republic of Iraq) on the paper money as we did in the passports, and
other government documents.
Whatever the cost of printing the new currency security features more
powerful and disobedience to the fraud (with interest accruing to the
state and its currency in the long run), it is less than the cost
incurred by the state because of the fraud the current Iraqi currency
(and in particular the category of 10 thousand dinars to be the largest
value and easier to fraud class of 25 thousand dinars), and the Central
Bank of Iraq was already in all cases that prints banknotes for the new
pump in the domestic market, either with or without the three zeros,
this is the main function.
Fifth:
At which point the most important and most sensitive at all,
with opponents saying that the counterfeiters and (mafias) money
laundering and smugglers of currency will take advantage of the new
situation in the “wash” of Iraqi dinars old forged and replaced by new
or the smuggling of Iraqi dinars a real out of the country for the
purposes of terrorism and organized crime, it which will lead to
lethality economic security of Iraq.
Answer:
As I noted above, the replacement process will not be
immediate, but will gradually transition over a certain period of years
determined by the Central Bank of Iraq. If counterfeiters can use the
current Iraqi Dnanaarham counterfeit in the Iraqi market, local damage
is already existing and will not appear after the launch of the new
currency, and the phenomenon of counterfeiting is a phenomenon found in
all the countries of the world. It will be the Iraqi currency printed
new currency stronger and wiser in terms of security using the latest
technologies used in printing currency and banknotes in the printing
world specialized and, therefore, put the new currency security features
more and more powerful is that would make the process of
counterfeiting, money laundering and kill the local economy is more
difficult on counterfeiters and black market traders who are in every
time and place originally. And not, as opposed to the idea of fear.
As for those who work on the smuggling of the old Iraqi currency,
they will lose their validity at all after the end of the transition
period to switch between the two currencies, and then leaves will become
worthless, and then working on the smuggler currency (Tnqaaha) and
drinking its water! It wants to spend from his own pocket to buy Iraqi
currency current and out of Iraq to reduce the number of Iraqi dinars
traded in the domestic market, and thus increase its value while he
keeps stacks of paper the old to make them cushions sleeps, is a person
who should thank him for his support of the Iraqi economy, not be afraid
of it anyway!
Whatever the concerns above real, including the face in particular,
currency smuggling and counterfeiting, money laundering, each state
procedures cash to combat these phenomena, as well as with the CBI its
own procedures already, and will not be affected by the importance or
usefulness of these measures negatively or positively, the process of
replacing currency, does not mean the process of replacing the currency
and should be abandoned for these precautions, it is meant that work to
strengthen and increase the effectiveness and efficiency, it is where
the fear then? Where is the problem and gentlemen customers in deleting
three zeros from the current Iraqi dinar (consider the many benefits of
this process in return)?
So the idea of deleting three zeros from the Iraqi dinar current idea
of a good and necessary in my opinion and benefits than disadvantages
and must move forward through as soon as possible (taking into account
the reasonableness of the two periods preparatory and transitional), a
matter of time is a must, and God knows what is right anyway.
Munaf Winner – Abu Dhabi
Supplement to the article
The denominations of the Iraqi dinar current (and future old) are as follows:
Mineral groups: no (was introduced two categories of 25 and 100
dinars in the year 2004, but it did not work was withdrawn from the
market in 2008).
Categories of paper: 50 dinars (become little use today because of
high prices and lack of value), 250 dinars, 500 dinars, 1000 dinars
.5000 dinars, 10,000 dinars 0.25000 dinars (which is the highest
denomination of the Iraqi dinar, is currently not sufficient to manage
the enormous mass of cash from Dnanerna Iraq now, they are not
equivalent to only $ 21).
I suggest (and I expect) to become denominations of the new Iraqi dinars (current and future) are as follows:
Mineral groups: 50 fils, 100 fils, quarter of a dinar, half dinar, one dinar (like the old days).
Categories of paper: 5, JD 10, JD 25 JD 0.50 dinars (perhaps 100
dinars, not to be in circulation in the local market, such as the 50
dinars, because the class of the JD 100 is also working to facilitate
spending and rising inflation), and must be groups of 25, 50, 100 dinars
printed on paper security features are very strong to prevent fraud, as
are those security features followed in most world currencies currently
(see class 20 or £ 50 as an example of the security features powerful
and anti-fraud, but if the O rings fraud and money laundering we have in
Iraq, “Ohtr” than in Britain, and that is not my belief).

Related: inflation is unlikely because the control of the central bank currency
Posted: October 10, 2011 by THE CURRENCY NEWSHOUND
He specializes in economic affairs Dargham Muhammad Ali, that
the volume of currency in circulation in the local market is (4)
trillion dinars is controlled by a
central bank and this prevents the
inflation for next year, noting that most of the ministries of the State
does not need to the degree of functional and she is
suffering from
sagging career, which would negatively affect the investment budget and
fully reflected in the Iraqi economy.
The Muhammad Ali in a statement to the
Contact Agency (news) on Monday: “The issue of inflation is unlikely in
the coming months due to the control of the
central bank currency in the
local market, which amounted to (4) trillion dinars and through his
control also on the exchange rate which is the scale determines
the
price of goods imported from abroad and mass of cash in the marketplace.
“
He pointed out: The Central Bank is working to absorb the Iraqi dinar
by offering more than the dollar Through the use of tools the interest
rate that can control
this issue, which will make the Iraqi citizen
saves his money instead of spending and this works to withdraw currency
from the market.
and saw Muhammad Ali said that most government ministries do not need
to degrees of functional and she is suffering from sagging career and
thus will
increase in the operational expenditure at the expense of
development and investment, which reflected negatively on the economy of
the country.
is noteworthy that the Iraqi economy has seen serious inflation is
unprecedented on the basis of all press reports and a summary of
seminars and economic
studies on this aspect as well as the concrete
facts on the ground has decreased the real value of money in the Iraqi
market is strikingly, no longer in large
quantities sufficient for the
purchase of a commodity or service is simple, so are the follow-up to
increase prices of goods and services in Iraq to assess the
rates
process fraught with difficulties, due to the continuous increase in

Posted: September 29, 2011 by THE CURRENCY NEWSHOUND
Continuing controversy over the deletion of zeros from the currency
varied views of a number of experts and specialists in economic
affairs in the process of deletion of zeros and replace the Iraqi
currency, between a pro her

in light
of stable economic conditions, which is not seen Iraq at the
moment, according to expert opinion, is that specialists others made
clear the importance of the matter as it confirmed that it can

He sees Dr. Mahdi Al-Hafiz was not the

In response to the opinion

While confirming Hafiz not to fit the time with the process of

expansionary, adding that the proposal made to Iraq is to adopt a free
economy, and therefore everything is
going according to policy,
deflationary, and led to the reduction of money supply and thereby
raising interest rates and it was born severe pressure on the
possibility of banking facilities, but said Abdul Rasul in return called
for a benefit from the experiences of countries that have preceded us
in the process
of changing the currency to reduce the mistakes that you
may encounter the process, and also said, is not new to Iraq, the
process of lifting the zeros from
the currency has preceded us many of
the States in that and I think the advantage of experiences of some
countries will help the success of the issue which
is important
experiments must be taken into consideration ..
the zeros added to strengthen the currency
in turn, considered the
economic researcher as Abdul Hadi said the issue of changing the
currency and to delete the zeros of which is premature, noting that
everyone knows that the zeros were added to the Iraqi currency as a
result of economic weakness, which was suffered by the country,
stressing that this
weakness is still present what he called to say: we
printed currencies with large groups . He said Abdul Hadi said
that if the deletion of zeros, to everyone
that he is certain that the
Iraqi economy returned to a much stronger position than it was
Accordingly, the opposite of what is going through economic reality now.
He assured the researcher
of citizens, which is administered talk about what may accompany the
process of removing the zeros, stressing the inability to exploit it by
the weak people, as rumored recently, and that the new currency to be
printed is the currency of the same specifications highly difficult to
forge or imitate in any way.
to that supported economic expert on behalf of Jamil Antoine process
of deletion of zeros from the currency, stressing the importance of curb
what he
called (dollarization) and the frequent use of foreign
currencies in the trading day for the local markets, said Antoine that
the most prominent is imperative for Central to change the currency, and
to delete the zeros of which is the enormous mass of cash in the local
market, estimated at more than four trillion
paper money, asserting that
the deletion of zeros will reduce this number to reach after nearly two
billion eight hundred million banknotes, explaining that this process
be shortened many of the daily dealings of the coin both in the banks or
the rest of the accounting of financial markets or Chierfat especially
that of the Iraqi citizen does not believe in only dealing cash (Cache).
He said the expert also said the process of removing the zeros will
enable traders to the currency storage and transport more easily than it
is now, is that the most prominent as possible
The resulting change the
currency, according to Antoine is to reduce the trading in cash and
raise the value of the dinar, which he said now with great
strength,
especially in light of its support with a $ 58 billion is the value of
reserves of the CBI

Iraq: $58bn in Currency Reserves, Should Redenominate Soon
Posted: September 6, 2011 by THE CURRENCY NEWSHOUND
The
deputy governor of Iraq’s central bank has announced that foreign
currency reserves have risen to close to $58 billion, and are expected
to increase further thanks to a rise in oil revenues.
Mudher Kasim said higher global oil prices could result in a budget surplus for 2011.
Reuters quotes him as saying, “(The amount of reserves) has gradually
increased since the beginning of last year, when it was $40 billion.
Now it is close to $58 billion”, while AlsumariaTV puts the opening
figure at $50 billion.
Last October, Kasim had put reserves at around $50 billion, with 45
percent held in dollars, 45 percent in euros and 10 percent mainly in
gold and British pounds.
Iraq earned $34.1 billion in oil
revenue, an increase of $8.7 billion, or 34 percent, over budgeted
revenue, in the first five months of this year, Deputy Prime Minister
Hussain Al-Shahristani said in June.
The deputy governor said inflation — which quickened to 7.1 percent
in July from 6.4 percent in June — was under control but being monitored
carefully.
Iraq, battered by years of war and economic sanctions, depends mainly
on imports for most goods, including food and building materials.
“If prices continue to increase and the inflation rate approaches two
digits, monetary policy tools will be strongly activated to fight
inflation,” he said.
Kasim said a plan to take off three zeroes from Iraq’s currency to
simplify financial transactions was awaiting parliamentary approval and
said the government should approve the project sooner rather than later.
