It was announced that the foreign cash reserves of the Central Bank amounted to 64 billion dollars and will rise to a higher rate when the Ministry of Finance pays what it owes to the Central Bank, which represents the sad transfers that the Central Bank discounted during the period of the financial crisis that Iraq suffered for the years 2016-2020 and it was a direct support to the treasury The state and the national economy.

The observer and the specialist is well aware that reaching this rate of foreign reserves is the central bank’s adoption of safe investment policies, which has strengthened the credit position internationally and restore confidence in the Iraqi economy and its international banking relations.

And to benefit from the rise in international oil prices and its arrival to 80 dollars per barrel and the effects of reducing the exchange rate The Iraqi dinar in December 2020, this is in addition to the measures and initiatives of the Central Bank during the year 2021, which made a significant contribution to revitalizing the economic cycle and stimulating the economy.
