tap Hawala Live
The corridors Iraq actually uses.
tap Hawala runs the whole desk. Rates go up in the morning, tickets are raised against a named counterparty, and every position is reconciled before the shutters come down. Three corridors are open today and all three settle into the same book.
One board, published, every morning.
No phone call, no negotiated favour. The desk quotes the same two sides to everybody who walks in, and the movement since yesterday is printed beside them.
Rates are indicative until a ticket is raised. Figures are Western and left-to-right in both languages — a house rule, not an oversight.
Corridors open today
Four things, done properly.
A settlement network
Baghdad, Erbil and Basra out to Istanbul, Dubai and Amman. Each leg has a named counterparty at both ends, a working window, and a settlement time we publish rather than promise.
Published rates
Buy and sell go on the board every morning and stay there. A clerk cannot quote off-board, and every ticket carries the rate it was raised at for as long as the book exists.
Reconciled books
Every night the desk closes: cash counted, positions netted per counterparty and per currency, and anything that will not balance flagged before morning instead of after.
Kashf statements
A counterparty statement your counterparty can actually read — opening balance, every movement, running total, closing balance. Arabic or English, same numbers.
Come and see the desk.
The board, the ticket, the journal and the customer statements are all wired up and full of a realistic day. Nothing you do in there touches a real book.
