As we dive into the latest analysis from Edu Matrix, led by the insightful Sandy Ingram, it becomes clear that the Central Bank of Iraq (CBI) has been working tirelessly behind the scenes. The CBI’s efforts in 2025 were not about making headlines with speculative currency revaluations but were instead focused on laying a robust foundation for the country’s monetary stability, enhancing financial controls, and modernizing Iraq’s financial infrastructure.
Iraq faces significant economic hurdles, one of the most pressing being the overprinting of its currency, the Iraqi dinar (IQD). This issue undermines the CBI’s control over the currency and poses a considerable risk to the economy. To counter this, the Iraqi government is considering two major strategies: either introducing a new currency to replace the IQD or imposing restrictions on non-citizens holding the currency. Both approaches aim to regain control over currency circulation and stabilize the economy.
The CBI took a firm stance against speculation regarding potential changes to the dinar’s exchange rate, emphasizing that any adjustments would be made under fully controlled conditions to prevent economic disruption. This approach underscores the bank’s commitment to stability and its cautious stance on major monetary decisions.
While confirming the development of a digital dinar, the CBI noted that this is a long-term project requiring substantial infrastructure development. The introduction of a digital currency could revolutionize the Iraqi monetary system, offering a more controlled, efficient, and modern means of conducting transactions.
2025 was a year of discipline and consolidation for the Iraqi monetary system. The CBI’s focus on building credibility, enhancing stability, and laying the groundwork for potential future currency adjustments suggests that any revaluation or currency reform in 2026 will be preceded by a period of controlled transition. This transition is likely to be supported by the technological and institutional advancements made in 2025.
For those looking for further insights into the CBI’s strategies and the future of Iraq’s monetary system, watching the full video analysis from Edu Matrix is a must. As we look towards 2026, it’s clear that the stage is being set for a potentially significant shift in Iraq’s economic landscape, driven by the CBI’s steady and considered approach.
