What are the conditions for deleting zeros?

Deleting zeros from the Iraqi currency requires the fulfillment of two conditions, according to Saleh, the

first is price stability within the country, which means the stability of the dollar exchange rate against the Iraqi dinar, which is still witnessing relative fluctuation after the Iraqi government decided Raising the value of the dollar at the beginning of this year.

As for the second condition, Salj adds in his speech to Al-Jazeera Net that it is represented by stability in political life inside Iraq, which is required to change the exchange rate from laws, political consensus, and so on.

Why Deletion?

In his interpretation of the reasons for deleting 3 zeros from the Iraqi currency (a dollar is equivalent to 1450 Iraqi dinars), Saleh comments, "The importance of deleting zeros from the currency and slimming its units as a necessary condition to reduce accounting numbers and facilitate arithmetic and the cost of managing new large numbers and the lack of Small numbers and fractions.”

He continues that the devaluation of coins comes because of their role in the sustainability of calculating huge numbers of financial values that are not absorbed by ordinary computers due to the large number of decimal places and the emergence of many accounting errors, especially when dealing with trillions, which means that the single numberIn front of him 12 decimal places.

On the importance of the deletion process and its realism, Salih indicated that the Central Bank of Iraq put a project to delete 3 zeros from the Iraqi currency the subject of research and study a long time ago, after reviewing 54 international experiences since the end of the World War The second so far, the last of which was in Iran and before that Turkey.



Rashid believes that the current economic situation in Iraq is not ready to delete zeros from the local currency (Al-Jazeera)

What are the effects?

on his part A member of the Finance Committee of the Iraqi Parliament, Ahmed Hama Rashid, confirmed that the current economic situation in Iraq is not ready to remove zeros from the local currency.

Hama Rashid continued in his speech to Al-Jazeera Net that this process means withdrawing the current currency denominations and printing new ones, which requires huge funds to be printed with technical specifications necessary to protect the currency from counterfeiting,

in addition to the fact that replacing the currency will destabilize the monetary system, which may cause Successive collapses, enslaving that the Central Bank of Iraq would take such a step.

Finance Committee member Jamal Cougar agrees with this proposal by assuring that this step is excluded in the next two years at least for several considerations, as he believes that deleting zeros is an impractical step., especially that the change in the exchange rate of the currency led to a shock to the Iraqi street, and therefore the Iraqis are not ready for another shock.

Cougar pointed out in an exclusive interview with Al-Jazeera Net that the Iraqi economy does not have its own decision, and that many countries are benefiting from the current Iraqi currency. In buying and selling transactions, and others.


Cougar: The fewer the number of currency numbers, the stronger its strength among currencies from the economic perspective (Al-Jazeera)

What are the benefits?

As for the benefits, Cougar sees that the fewer the number Currency numbers have strengthened among currencies from an economic perspective, but this requires consolation g The local economy inside the country and diversifying the sources of the Iraqi budget, including the strengthening of industry and agriculture as a preliminary condition for this step.

And about the extent of the benefit deriving from this change in restoring the Iraqi cash mass hoarded by the Iraqis or smuggled abroad, he explained that dealing The international currency in the Iraqi currency is not related to the number of zeros as much as it is related to the strength of investments inside the country and the size of the Iraqi product exported abroad.

Cougar gives an example of this that Turkey, which deleted zeros from its currency years ago, embarked on building a diverse and large economy and investments, and this is what It differs from the Iraqi situation, whose currency is not found in global currency exchanges so far

On the other hand, Professor of Economics at the Iraqi University Abdul Rahman al-Mashhadani believes that deleting zeros will save the state the costs of transferring the Iraqi currency between the central bank and government and private banks.

Al-Mashhadani continues in his speech to Al-Jazeera Net that deleting zeros may lead to a decline in Iraqis' demand for The dollar is for the sake of hoarding, as the Iraqis currently keep the dollar for easy preservation, while preserving the same value in the Iraqi currency requires a greater storage capacity,

pointing out that this is conditional on printing new cash denominations with a value higher than what is currently available, as if a denomination of 200 dinars (equivalent to 200 thousand) was printed. Dinar in the current currency), which requires 4 banknotes of a category (50 thousand).



Al-Shamaa believes that deleting zeros from the currency will not provide anything for the Iraqi economy (Al-Jazeera)

Who is the loser?

Each economic equation calculates the ratio of profit and loss, which is indicated by the economist Hammam Al-Shammaa that this ratio will not be equally present in the equation, warning of the occurrence of psychological disorders in the Iraqi market in the event of deleting zeros.

Deleting zeros from the currency will not do anything for the Iraqi economy, but rather that It will cost the Iraqi state huge sums of money to print a new currency without this having a clear impact on the local economy.”

Al-Shammaa points out that the competitiveness of Iraqi goods against imported ones will not witness a positive change inside the country, especially since international transactions are made in US dollars in the ratio The greatest of them.

This is confirmed by the professor of economics at the Iraqi University, Abdul Rahman Al-Mashhadani, and adds that competitiveness with imported goods depends on the local product and its strength, pointing out that Iraq does not have industries that can compete with imported ones and overcome them in terms of quality, price and protection.

The state has it, he said.

Returning to Ahmed Hama Rashid, where it is believed that deleting zeros from the currency will not be in the interest of the government currently, inferring that Iraq has 80 trillion Iraqi dinars from multiple monetary categories, and that printing 5 trillion dinars from the category (50 thousand) cost

The Iraqi government 60 million dollars at that time, and therefore the cost for the rest of the cash denominations will be much greater, given that printing each denomination costs approximately (6 US cents) on average, according to his opinion.

Who is the winner?

In contrast to the losing party, Al-Shammaa believes that the government may obtain limited benefits from deleting zeros, which is that the government and the central bank will face fewer problems in the accounting system and final accounts with limited zeros and small accounting numbers.

It was revealed by the economic advisor to the Prime Minister that the hyperinflation that hit the Iraqi economy in the nineties of the last century added 3 numbers to the Iraqi monetary unit, while the small categories disappeared from circulation completely, as the category (250 dinars) became the smallest monetary unit in daily circulation. Inside the country, which raised the cost of micro-transactions, as well The inflation caused by the huge numbers circulating in the accounting system inside the country.

Ferri-kujar benefits, whenever the number of currencies has strengthened its strength between currencies in an economic perspective, this requires strengthening the domestic economy within the country and diversifying the Iraqi budget sources, as required by industry and agriculture as a preliminary condition of this step.

On the extent of the benefit of this change in restoring the Iraqi cash cluster of Iraqis or smuggled abroad, he explained that international dealing with the Iraqi currency is not about the number of zeros as much as the investments inside the country and the size of the Iraqi product abroad.

Kujar is an example that Turkey, which deleted the zeros of its currency, has begun to build a varied economy and investments, which is different from the Iraqi situation, which has no work in global currency stocks so far.

On the other hand, professor of Economics at the Iraqi University Abdul Rahman Al Mashhadani see the deletion of the zeros will provide the state to transport the Iraqi currency between the central bank and banks and the government.

Mashhadani follows his speech to delete the zeros could lead to the decline in Iraqis on the dollar for the dollar. New with a higher value than currently exists as if the class of 200 dinars (equivalent to 200 thousand dinars in the current currency) requires 4 cash (50 thousand).[/b]
