Having Iraq’s currency on the World Market constitutes an RV occurring, ok, point made…
Saddam Hussien’s Government was overthrown and the Saddam Dinar phased out in fall of 2003. There was an approximate 60 to 90 day period for the old Saddam Dinar to be cashed in for the Iraqis and those working in Iraq. This phasing out period imposed a time period to cash in old Saddam dinar or face a strong devaluation of the old currency. The reason for the cash in period was because the old currency was being discontinued due to the new Iraqi post Saddam Government.
Whenever there is a rumour that is untrue it is my moral obligation to find out where the leg grew from, a figure of speech. I can tell you this, the leg grew from what happened with the discontinuity of the old Saddam currency.
The World Bank will have nothing to do with a revaluation attempt that involves a cash in period which is purely a function of a devaluation. Hypothetically speaking, if the World Bank executed an RV and put the Dinar on the world market, the World Bank would then have to pull the Dinar back off the market after 60/90 days and make the currency restricted again like it is now. A total farce.
