Rebuilding Iraq: U.S. Mismanagement of Iraqi Funds

House Committee on Government Reform
Special Investigations Division
Abstract
The Special Investigations Division of the House Committee on Government Reform scrutinizes the management of over $19.6 billion in Iraqi funds that were disbursed or obligated by U.S. officials between the Iraq invasion in 2003 and the transfer of power in 2004. The analysis is based on extensive financial records, audit reports, and interviews with auditors and officials involved in fund management. The reports findings include unprecedented cash withdrawals from Iraqi accounts, inadequate financial controls by the Coalition Provisional Authority (CPA) officials, and evidence of substantial waste, fraud, and abuse in spending the funds.
