                   GDP

                   The value of goods and final services produced in a country with a certain period of time.
                   It consists of public and private expenditures, capital structure and changes in exports and
                   imports. GDP is an important indication that reflects the economic stability.


                   Economic Growth
                   The  National  Development  Plan  2022-2018  aims  to  achieve  an  appropriate  economic
                   growth  rate  consistent  with  the  rates  achieved  by  the  Iraqi  economy  during  the  past
                   periods  based  on  the  material  and  human  resources  it  enjoys,  especially  with  the
                   maintenance  of  oil  production  and  the  ability  to  achieve  oil  exports  guaranteeing  the
                   sustainability  of  financial  revenues  that  can  be  employed  in  the  productive  and  other
                   services sectors. The target growth rate has been specified for the years 2018-2022 to be
                   7%, 7.5% of which for the growth of oil sector and 6.1% growth rate for all other non-oil
                   activities (commodity, distribution and service). Although the conviction is available to
                   the  ability  of  the  Iraqi  economy  to  achieve  higher  growth  rates,  but  taking  into
                   consideration the global instability of oil prices on one hand and the terrorist threats and
                   security instability on the other hand and other factors that undermine the development
                   process in the coming years.
