Iraq Business Report

AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Cabinet Deadlock Watch: Iraq’s PM Ali Al-Zaidi says negotiations on the remaining cabinet posts are set to wrap this week, with nominees heading to parliament next week for a confidence vote, as disputes over key ministries like Interior and Defense continue. Oil Shipping Compliance: Iraq’s SOMO denies any ties to the sanctioned tanker BINARY STAR, saying it only contracts vessels that meet compliance checks and uses monitoring when AIS data is hidden. Currency Moves: The US dollar rose against the Iraqi dinar in Baghdad and Erbil, with exchange rates reported around 1,541–1,545 dinars per dollar. Regional Energy Pressure: With Strait of Hormuz disruptions and renewed US-Iran strikes, crude prices and shipping risk remain in focus, keeping costs and planning uncertainty high for Iraq-linked trade flows.
