Uchambuzi wako ndugu stakehigh ni mzuri sana na umeenda ndani zaidi kwenye falsafa ya kifedha (Monetary Philosophy). Nakubaliana na wewe kwa asilimia 100 kwamba mfumo mzima wa kifedha duniani umejengwa juu ya misingi ya Imani na Mahusiano (Trust and Relationships). Fedha za sasa sio dhahabu, ni karatasi na namba za kielektroniki zinazopewa thamani kwa sababu serikali zimeamua iwe hivyo.It doesnt work that way, SWIFT isnt a network of connected central banks, its only a MESSAGING SYSTEM, kwa mtu ambae hajafika BOT anaweza dhan SWIFT ni kama database flan inconnect central banks zote, NO it doesnt work that way!
SWIFT works based on 2 protocols (MT or ISO 20022), when the bank of tanzania sends a SWIFT message there is no any balance sheet that needed to prove i have the reserve because the other central bank only needs to receive the message and work on the payment via the LOCAL CURRENCY
If every central bank on earth needed VAULTS so pay for transactions then even the US itself would never be able to make payments outside because they have a huge deficit
Kinachokuchangaya ni unahisi SWIFT Ni program flan inahifadhi hela and there is a place somewhere abroad they can view what balance you have for them to accept or reject a transactions, sasa things dont work that way, It goes this way
I have a good relationship with kenya then i can send as many SWIFT messages as needed because i TRUST bank of tanzania is legit and not auto creating money
2) What you learn in economics is only whats supposed to happen for individual to propser but the overall banking system is another story, i have barely scratched the surface of what happens in the system
3) Trade deficit arent a big problem where thos 2 nations are in good relationship, Remember i told you the monetary system is based on TRUST
4) Every central bank including the Federal reserve can print as much money as needed, the only problem here is TRUST, the Federal reserve can print enough of it because its the base currency of the US and no any other country can reject it, However there are only 9 countries where the US cant send its money: Andorra, Ecuador, El Salvador, Kiribati, Marshall Islands, Micronesia,Nauru, Palau and Tuvalu (why its impossible here is anotherday story as i told you i barely scratched the surface) however thislist has some nations such as Afghanistan, cuba and sometimes Honkong(partially)
5) Trade deficit isnot a problem, na sio kenya tu, most nations will always have a deficit and they will still purchase anything outside except for some few of them,na sio nchi tu, other notable figures include IMF and World Bank, they can as well sent you as much money as needed

6) When you take a loan at IMF or World Bank, itsnot because your supposed to pay it back but its because you have to align to some conditions, When you take a loan from the IMF there is no any collateral needed as itsnot really a loan as you might think of, However when you take a loan from a multinational company then you have to pay it(For example naweza nkaenda IMF nkasema nahitaji mkopo kwa ajili ya COVID, VIJANA, MALARIA... the list goes on) now itadepend mahusiano yenu! Thats why all presidents always emphasize that we have good relationships with country x, some will say our relationship goes back to maybe 90's, itsnot by accident but its survival
7) Tanzania shilling doesnt loose value because of anything related to the economy its purely the commercial banks scheme, again tanzania & kenya shillings arent valuable as you think but they are the main political drivers for a nation to prosper, Take it this way, the government just said this is money and thats it you have nothing else to question, For example! If you lived in the 80's you surely have come across a 10tsh not, now that 10tsh can now just be considered useless because thats what the government saidand you had to follow what they said, in reference if i had 10 grams of tanzanite in the 80's you know it will still worth till today
Nikienda kununua shati kariakoo tuseme nmenunua 1000 Tsh, i might as well sell it for 5000tsh, because thats what i wanted you to believe is the actual price, likewise to the government it has to do the same because thats what is supposed to be done
I understand we have people studying economics and accountant but just like anything else created by human, you are born to learn how to live in a world thats created from complexity of the same human, for you to come up with another creativity for the next generation to learn how to live from it

Katika post yangu ya awali sijawahi kudai kuwa SWIFT ni Database inayohifadhi fedha. Nilisema mfumo wa ujumbe (Messaging System) tu, na hapo tuko ukurasa mmoja.
Hata hivyo, screenshot yako ya kwanza uliyoweka inaeleza kiini cha hoja yangu vizuri sana kuliko maelezo yote. Naomba tuisome pamoja kwa makini pale kwenye mfano wa Bank of England:
Mfano wako unasema
The Bank of England sends a SWIFT message saying: Please deduct 100 million dollars FROM OUR ACCOUNT WITH YOU.
Hilo neno From our account with you (Kutoka kwenye akaunti yetu tuliyonayo kwenu) ndilo linabeba ukweli wote wa kiuchumi. Ili Bank of England iwaambie Federal Reserve ya Marekani 'kateni Dola Milioni 100 kwenye akaunti yetu', ni lazima Bank of England iwe na akaunti kule Marekani, na hiyo akaunti iwe na kiasi hicho cha fedha, au iwe na makubaliano ya kukopa (Overdraft Facility) kulingana na dhamana walizonazo.
Ujumbe wa SWIFT hauji tu hewani bila kuangalia vitabu vya akaunti hizo za uwakala (Reciprocal Accounts). Kama Benki Kuu ya Tanzania (BoT) itatuma ujumbe wa SWIFT kwenda Benki Kuu ya Marekani au ya Ujerumani ikisema 'Tulipieni mabehewa ya SGR ya Dola Milioni 100 kutoka kwenye akaunti yetu', jambo la kwanza linalofanyika ni kuangalia kama salio la Tanzania (Foreign Reserves) lililopo kwenye akaunti hiyo linatosha. Kama halitoshi, ule ujumbe wa SWIFT unakataliwa kwa sababu hauna fedha za kuwianisha (Settlement Assets). Ndio maana nchi inahitaji kuwa na Akiba ya Dola (Foreign Reserves) halisi kule nje ili jumbe zetu za SWIFT ziheshimiwe (si “deni” wala “kubahatisha”. Benki ya Marekani haitakubali ahadi ya BoT kwamba “tutakulipa baadaye”. Lazima fedha ziwepo tayari).
Kuhusu masuala ya IMF, World Bank, na Nakisi ya Biashara (Trade Deficit)
A. Mikopo ya IMF haina dhamana ya majengo au viwanja (Collateral), lakini ina dhamana ngumu zaidi inayoitwa Conditionality (Masharti ya Kisera). IMF hawakupi fedha kwa sababu ya 'mahusiano mazuri' pekee; wanakupa kwa sababu umekubali kusaini masharti yao ya kubana matumizi, kuondoa ruzuku, au kupandisha kodi. Na ukishindwa kulipa, nchi yako inapoteza sifa ya kukopesheka duniani kote (Inaingia kwenye Default), jambo linaloua uchumi papo hapo.
B. Nchi 9 ulizozitaja (kama Ecuador, El Salvador, Palau, na Tuvalu) kwamba Marekani haiwezi kutuma fedha huko, ukweli wa kiufundi ni kwamba nchi hizo hazina sarafu zao za ndani; zinatumia Dola ya Marekani (USD) kama sarafu rasmi ya nchi yao (Kitaalamu inaitwa Dollarization). Marekani inatuma fedha huko kila siku kupitia biashara na misaada kwa sababu uchumi wao unategemea Dola hiyohiyo ya Marekani.
C. Shilingi ya Tanzania kupoteza thamani sio mchezo wa mabenki ya biashara tu (Commercial Banks Scheme). Mabenki ya biashara ni wafanyabiashara wa rejareja wa fedha. Kama nchi inapitisha miradi mikubwa inayohitaji kununua vifaa nje kwa Dola (kama SGR au Miradi mingine mikubwa), mahitaji ya Dola yanakuwa makubwa kuliko Dola zinazoingia nchini kutokana na mauzo ya dhahabu au pamba. Mabenki yakiona wateja wanaotaka Dola ni wengi kuliko Dola zilizopo, yanapandisha bei ya Dola. Hiyo ndiyo sheria ya asili ya soko (Supply and Demand) inayoshusha thamani ya Shilingi yetu.
Nakupongeza kwa uchambuzi wako wa kifalsafa. Ni kweli mifumo ya kibinadamu imeundwa kwa mambo mengi changamano (Complexities). Lakini pamoja na uchangamano huo, ili reli ya SGR ikamilike na mabehewa yaje, ni lazima BoT ihamishe Dola halisi zilizopo kwenye akiba yetu ya nje kwenda kwa muuzaji. Maelezo yako yanatupa picha nzuri sana ya jinsi mifumo ya kibenki inavyowasiliana kwa siri, lakini maelezo yangu yanatupa uhalisia wa jinsi uchumi wa nchi unavyoathirika mtaani pale Dola inapoadimika. Huu ni mjadala mzuri sana na wa kiwango cha juu mno!
MUNGU IBARIKI TANZANIA NA WATU WAKE
