The US Treasury Secretary also met with representatives of the financial sector, including the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Iraqi Trade Bank Bilal Al-Hamdani and representatives of privately owned banks to discuss ways in which bilateral efforts can provide “new opportunities for communication between Iraqi banks and the international financial system, which will benefit the Iraqi economy and the Iraqi people, while protecting the international financial system from misuse.”
The U.S. Treasury renewed its commitment to “long-term joint work with the Government of Iraq to strengthen the Iraqi economy and protect the U.S. and Iraqi financial systems from a***e.”
