DELTA: We would like to inform our valued customers
That cash withdrawals will be suspended at all Branches of the Iraqi Bank of Commerce from Thursday, December 26, 2019 to conduct annual inventories.
These operations will resume from Sunday, January 05, 2020.
So it’s worth noting.
MilitiaMan: So this is starting on the 26th. Hey folks no cash starting on the 26th.. Better get in and get what you can now if need be.. -MM
MilitiaMan: So on the 26th they start stopping cash withdrawals then on the 29th they stop cash deposits.. They seriously are telling everyone that something is a foot and don’t get fought blind. Just as the CBI told everyone to be prepared to modify contracts, in which the ITB do exactly that and now are going even further!! – MM
MilitiaMan: Now they correspondently say from the 29th no deposits in cash and also no foreign remittances are to be made through the 01/05/2020.. No wire transfers? Really? Talk about a huge deal.. They have this timed like no other!! Oh ya!! – I don’t care who is at the helm of the CBI anymore.. it matters not at this stage. Alak has been tapped for the AMF is all real time data the rest is hearsay! Imo – MM
StephenMac63: IMO, this will also give the citizens confidence after they have a crash course in using the Cards, essentially a step in weaning them off of cash altogether in the future……unless the cards will also be out of service.
MilitiaMan: Yes, financial inclusion has been a main focus from many entities.. Having the new system in place with massive education over time has the citizens and banks ready to convert now.. imo – MM
Pennypan: Remember people that many of Iraqi citizens keep cash in their homes becuase they don’t trust the banking system. This shouldn’t make a huge difference to the average citizen. That being said, I do hope that the NSCN are being put into the ATM’s and the RV happens in time for the banks to be back online. Just my humble opinion…
MilitiaMan: The point is they have a time line to convert! Imo -MM

MilitiaMan: “The price of the dollar may change.” Another indicator warnings are flashing and even suggesting they may have or can at a moments notice!! Imo – MM
Chappy86: Or they may be telling the citizens to get rid of their USD because the IQD is about to be 3 times the dollar, in Country.

Samson: Parliamentary Finance: The government approved the price of $ 56 a barrel of oil in the 2020 budget
17:39 – 24/12/2019
The Parliamentary Finance Committee confirmed, on Tuesday, that the Council of Ministers approved the price of $56 per barrel of oil within the draft federal budget law for 2020, while it indicated that the price of selling oil may rise after discussion in Parliament.
Committee member Hanin Qaddo said in a statement to “Information”, that “the cabinet approved the price of $ 56 per barrel of oil within the draft federal budget law for 2020,” noting that “the government has not yet sent the federal budget items to the House of Representatives.”
He added that “the House of Representatives may raise the price of selling a barrel of oil to more than 60 dollars after discussing the budget that will be sent to it,” noting that “raising and lowering the price of selling oil depends on international oil prices and the size of the fiscal deficit in the budget.”
The Parliamentary Finance Committee confirmed, earlier, that the dispatch of the Council of Ministers to the Federal Budget Bill for 2020 is dependent on naming the new Prime Minister. LINK
