He said on the Keywords in an interview to the (long-Presse), "The next year, 2017, will see the launch of the electronic currency after the termination of the Central Bank of infrastructure structures necessary for the operation of electronic payment through the mail dinar or electronic tags, which facilitates transactions between state institutions," noting that " the end of this year or next year will work directly in the new Central Bank building.

This electronic system is exactly what has been needed for years and we have said that all along.
tlm724 I spoke with BondLady about this article this morning and here are our thoughts.
BondLady This a well thought out plan and it obviously has the IMF written all over it Wink
Remember when they stopped the auctions and what a fiasco it was. Not a good plan ! It just proved how incompetent they were , thank God for the IMF and the likes of the World Bank etc...
But this is more to our liking, a well thought out plan to move the country forward with each step analysed and implemented at the appropriate time !
We have learned how Iraq has been setting up the smart card and getting the facilities ready in many of the provinces with the goal of having it in ALL of the provinces. This smart card not only covers rations and benefits but salaries are paid on it as well.
That action itself was the beginning of getting the people used to using an electronic system of money. As more people are included in the system the easier it will be for them to transition into the electronic forms of payments and receivables. In turn, this will bring in much of the dinar off the streets which we know is necessary to the currency reform plan.
The only way to get the people to give up the dinar under their mattresses was to get them to use this system, get used to it and protect their money.
The Deposit Insurance Law was published in the Gazette on July 24th, 2016 so that part is done ! The people will have to use the system whether they want to or not, no way around it going forward.
Iraq is now discussing modifying the tax code because it is hurting the people having to pay taxes on their salaries but they cannot go backwards on this.
The people should be able to pay their taxes as the currency reform continues. Oh they won't like to pay it just like we don't but it is part of the free market and how revenue is generated.
Prime Minister Abadi replaced many bank managers and the Speaker of the House Jubouri made a statement yesterday:
