Iraq Completes Early Repayment of Entire Outstanding Obligations to the IMF
Press Release No. 07/288
December 14, 2007
On December 12, 2007, Iraq completed the early repayment of its entire outstanding obligations to the International Monetary Fund (IMF) amounting to SDR 297.1 million (about US$470.5 million). The outstanding obligations of Iraq had been contracted under the Emergency Post-Conflict Assistance that was approved by the Executive Board on September 29, 2004 (see Press Release No 04/206).
The repayment was made in advance of Iraq's request for a new Stand-By Arrangement, which is scheduled for discussion at the IMF's Executive Board on December 19, 2007. Under the original schedule, the final repayment of Iraq's outstanding obligations to the IMF would have taken place in 2009.
IMF Managing Director Dominique Strauss-Kahn commended the Iraqi authorities for the implementation of their macroeconomic policies and reforms over the last several years, noting that "Iraq's ability to repay the IMF ahead of schedule reflects its strong international reserve position against a background of high oil prices."
hmmmmm maybe they wanted to look good so they can ask for a bigger sum of money when DEC 19TH comes. I dont think that the loan will be all used for a currency rv but for reconstruction and maybe some for currency reserves but what do I know. I don't fall into the hype any more. That oh yea the new SBA is comming on Dec 19th and it will and must be used for an RV...give me a break guys. I hope Im wrong. But i guess were gonna see some major changes in the comming new year. I just hope sooner than later. Tank

I won't be asking him anyhthing PO. This will turn out just like you and I know it will. I hope you don't think my little countdown means I'm an LN Kool-Aide drinker. But if he's right I'll be the first to say "Way to go Larry, I knew you'd be right".
