بغداد اليوم – بغداد حذر الخبير الاقتصادي زياد الهاشمي اليوم الأحد (20 أيلول 2026)، من استمرار الضغوط على سعر صرف الدينار العراقي مقابل الدولار، عازيا ذلك إلى تصاعد الطلب على العملة الأجنبية، بالتزامن مع تراجع الإيرادات الدولارية والحوالات الخارجية. وقال الهاشمي، في منشور عبر حسابه على “فيسبوك”، تابعته "بغداد اليوم"، إن زيادة الاعتماد على خصم حوالات الخزينة خلال الأشهر الماضية أسهمت في ضخ كميات إضافية من الدينار في السوق، من دون أن يقابلها ارتفاع مماثل في عرض الدولار الرسمي. وأضاف أن تراجع مبيعات النفط وانخفاض الحوالات الخارجية، إلى جانب تعطل بعض مسارات التجارة وارتفاع تكاليف النقل والكمارك، أدى إلى زيادة السيولة الدينارية المتداولة، وبالتالي خلق طلب إضافي على الدولار. وأشار إلى أن استمرار هذه العوامل، بالتزامن مع المتغيرات الإقليمية وحالة القلق في السوق، قد يبقي سعر الصرف تحت تأثير ما وصفها بـ”تسعيرة الأزمة” خلال الفترة المقبلة، مع محدودية الأدوات المتاحة أمام البنك المركزي لضبط التوازن في سوق الصرف.
