Banking, Finance & Capital Markets
Iraq’s banking sector is regulated by the Central Bank of Iraq, an authority whose directives, licensing requirements, and approval processes are evolving rapidly as the sector develops. For international financial institutions and investors seeking exposure to Iraq’s banking and capital markets, the regulatory framework is the primary entry challenge. Getting it right requires lawyers who work inside that framework every day, not ones who read about it from the outside.
