The Iraqi Private Banks Association announced, on Monday, that the percentage of loans provided by banks to citizens and companies increased by 15.5% during the year 2020 compared to the year 2019, indicating that this increase is due to the recent policy of the Central Bank of Iraq that increased various lending products and contributed to supporting banks and increasing the credit portfolio. .
