Subject / Authorization Deed No. 10 / Sh / 964
Greetings
Your honorable court had deposited in the name of the Administrative Committee for Iraqi Jews in its capacity as the trustee
of the Isaac Farha Charitable Endowment at the Eastern Bank in Baghdad - an amount of 5342/500 -
dinars as a fixed deposit with an interest rate of 4% annually.
In view of the merger of the aforementioned bank with Al-Rafidain Bank, which has become known as ((Al-Rafidain Bank
- Banks Street Branch)) and for the purpose of transferring the aforementioned account to the new bank, it became necessary to return
the fixed deposit receipt kept by your honorable court to the aforementioned bank and replace it with another receipt
after transferring the account.
Therefore, we kindly request sending the fixed deposit receipt to Al-Rafidain Bank - Banks Street Branch for the purpose of
replacing it with a new receipt after transferring the account.
With respect,
The general agents for
The Administrative ⟦Committee⟧ for Iraqi Jews
