Highlights by PDK (Summary – Not Verbatim)

📰 Central Bank & Banking Reform:

🔹 Amended Bank List: The Central Bank of Iraq has updated its list of banks — previously limited to government banks — to meet international standards for foreign financing and correspondent banking. 🌐

🔹 Sovereign Guarantees & Projects:

  • Five projects are awaiting Cabinet approval for sovereign guarantees totaling 1 trillion IQD.

  • Six projects in total, with 600 billion IQD already approved and 400 billion IQD remaining.

  • Agreements exist with Spanish, German, and UK entities to support investment projects. ✈️💼

🔹 Private Bank Involvement:

  • The remaining projects under the 1 trillion IQD ceiling will now be handled by private banks, as per the Central Bank amendment.

  • The Trade Bank of Iraq (TBI) has been notified, and an agreement with a Dutch entity is expected to be signed within 1–10 days. 🏦🤝

🔹 Coordination Efforts:

  • The Sovereign Guarantees Committee has spent two years coordinating with financing banks, guaranteeing institutions, and the Industrial Bank to ensure smooth execution.

💭 Takeaway: Iraq is modernizing its banking sector to international standards, facilitating foreign investment, and enabling private sector participation in major projects — a step forward for economic growth and financial transparency.
