Week of
Iraq and the Czech Republic account for the week's two records, covering exchange company bank accounts and interest rates on client accounts. The Central Bank of Iraq issued a circular requiring exchange companies in categories A and B, and foreign currency brokerage companies, to report the banks they deal with and to designate one of them as the account from which fees owed to the Central Bank or other obligations will be deducted, with the bank informed accordingly; companies that change the designated bank must notify the Central Bank and provide a clearance from the previous bank. The Czech National Bank published an official communication on interest rates for client accounts held with it, covering the State Treasury single account in CZK, EUR and USD, accounts of foreign central banks and financial institutions, accounts of international institutions, and debit technical balances. It replaces the previous communication of December 11, 2025, with the new rates applying from June 17, 2026. Both records are translated from Arabic and Czech respectively, and they differ in scope: one sets operational requirements for private companies, the other sets rates on accounts held with the central bank itself.
