Finance: Iraq maintains its credit rating at B/B- with a stable outlook
The Ministry of Finance announced, on Tuesday, that Iraq maintains its credit rating at -B/B with a stable outlook in the latest report of Standard & Poor’s (S&P)
The Finance said, in a statement received by (Baghdad Today), that: “The new classification came as a reflection of the policy of continuous economic and financial reforms pursued by the Ministry of Finance, in addition to maintaining the level of foreign currency reserves that exceeds the external public debt service and the fulfillment of other external financial obligations as a result of the rise in crude oil prices.” “.
While the agency’s report indicated, according to the statement, “the possibility of improving the credit rating of Iraq in the event of a high rate of economic growth, diversification of the public financial revenues of the oil and non-oil state, an increase in the per capita share of national income, and the continuation of financial and economic policy reform measures.”
It is noteworthy that (Standard & Poor’s), as a credit rating agency, issues its rating to measure the ability of a borrower government, company or institution to fulfill its financial obligations to the lender, meaning that this rating is a testimony about the financial position of the concerned party. link
Formal, parallel, market and economy
The “official” rate for the dollar is 1,300 dinars.
The price of the parallel market for the dollar now is 1527 dinars.
The market.. the market.
As long as there is an “official” price (of anything), there is a corresponding “market” price.
As long as there is a market, there will remain a “gap” between the “official price” and the “market price”.

Sometimes the price is “managed”, and the market rhythm is “set” .. and some “countries” do this, because they are able to do so .. i.e. they are able to influence the size of the price “gaps” and the extent of their widening, according to the main macro variables that govern the economy .
The “success” in achieving this “discipline,” “control,” or “influence” will remain “relative.” Because no “authority,” including the powers of the most powerful dictatorships in the world, can “completely” regulate or control the market price. .
Sometimes (as is the case with the current exchange rate crisis in Iraq, with all its details and causes), “success” in this regard will only be embodied in the ability of the “state” to narrow the difference between the official price and the parallel market price of the dollar against the dinar.
As for the “government” taking “urgent” decisions and adopting “hasty” policies with the aim of narrowing the difference between the two prices, and yet the difference between the official price and the parallel market price remains the same (or widens over time), this is the specific “failure”.
Failure that may lead to chaos in the economy.
This is the chaos that oil is covering up now.
We have nothing but oil now.
And we have no “guardian” or “intercessor” other than him.. even for a while. link
