Iraq Devalues Dinar 15% to 1,500/USD in Official Rate Shift

Iraq has devalued its currency, adjusting the official exchange rate from approximately 1,300 to 1,500 dinars per US dollar, a roughly 15% depreciation. The move signals fiscal strain or a policy shift, likely aimed at addressing budget pressures or aligning with parallel market rates. This could impact Iraq's import costs, inflation, and foreign reserves, with potential regional economic implications.
