"The aim is to expand the scope of electronic payments," the bank said in a statement to The Twilight News.
"The platform is working to provide real-time clearing and settlement services for remittances across the borders between Arab countries and arab and international currencies, and the first movement has been implemented through banks between the UAE and the Arab Emirates and the UAE dirham currency," he said.
The Central Bank of Iraq and a number of local banks have already signed an agreement and completed the technical requirements to participate in the project in coordination with the Arab Monetary Fund and work is under way to adopt the Iraqi dinar in the system for the next phase, where the participating banks in the Arab countries will be able to send and receive payments among themselves in a safe and reliable manner, while this platform will help reduce the use of international centers of correspondent banks in clearing and settling Arab payments, which contributes to reducing the time and cost to the accompanying banks and their customers."
Oil rises and Brent rises above $52 before OPEC+ meeting
Oil rose on Monday, supported by a decline in the dollar ahead of an OPEC+ meeting to decide whether it can continue to raise production as the rise in CORONA virus infection stifles the recovery of global energy demand.
Uk Prime Minister Boris Johnson said tougher closures were likely to be needed in England, while Japan was considering another emergency.
However, the demand for oil is better in China, where severe winters and lack of energy are prompting factories to speed up the installation of diesel generators.
The market weighs a fragile outlook for short-term energy demand against an expected recovery later in the year once enough people are vaccinated. Oil was also supported by a weaker dollar, reinforcing the attractiveness of currency-priced commodities.
West Texas Intermediate rose 1.15% to $49.09 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange at 0515 GMT.
Brent crude for March also rose 1.2% to $52.43 a barrel on the European Ice Futures Exchange after closing 0.3% on Thursday.
Delegates at Sunday's meeting said several countries, including Saudi Arabia, seemed cautious about increasing production in February. Russia said OPEC, which cut production last year, could add another 500,000 barrels per day next month.
OPEC production rose by 190,000 barrels per day to 25.3 million barrels per day in December, as Libya made gains, according to JBC Energy. Angola, Iran, the UAE, Venezuela and Algeria have also boosted supply. OPEC expects crude oil demand to rise to 95.9 million barrels per day this year from 90 million in 2020.
