Abstract
The aim of this research is to present the reality of financial inclusion in Iraq, by analyzing the behavior and trends of its financial indicators according to its dimensions (access and usage) for the period (2014 to 2024). This research aims to determine the level of financial inclusion in Iraq and its most important pillars. Based on the basic premise that financial inclusion in Iraq can be measured and analyzed, and the development of its indicators can be monitored. Financial inclusion in Iraq can be expressed using four sets of indicators: banking density and banking penetration, and the spread of electronic payment services to express access. Mobile payment services, and electronic card and bank account penetration indicators, were used to express usage. Two factors were identified as constraints on achieving financial inclusion requirements in Iraq: the financial infrastructure and technology, and the lack of widespread financial awareness among individuals and the skill required to select financial products. This has led to a lack of digital transaction culture among Iraqis, as well as a lack of confidence in financial transactions in this context, due to the prevalence of hacking, fraud, and deception. It is impossible to advance financial inclusion levels in Iraq without addressing these two important and interconnected constraints.
Abstract
Public-private partnerships (PPPs) have emerged as a critical mechanism for promoting sustainable development, particularly in the context of higher education institutions. This field study explores the role and impact of PPPs at Future University, focusing on how PPPs contribute to achieving the university's sustainable development goals. The study uses a descriptive approach by distributing (80) questionnaires to Future University staff, which were analyzed using SmartPLS V.4. The results reveal that PPPs at Future University facilitated infrastructure development, enhanced academic programs, and promoted research initiatives aligned with sustainability goals. However, challenges such as aligning stakeholder interests, ensuring long-term commitment, and maintaining transparency were identified as barriers to maximizing the potential of these partnerships. The study concludes that while PPPs offer significant opportunities to promote sustainable development in higher education, their success depends on strong governance frameworks, clear communication, and shared value creation among all stakeholders. The study provides recommendations to strengthen existing partnerships and guide future collaborations at Future University and similar institutions.

Abstract
This essay examines how important anti-monopoly and competition laws are for promoting global collaboration, economic expansion, and avoiding market distortions. The report emphasizes Iraq's desire to use competition laws as a springboard for a larger plan to develop trade and economic ties domestically and abroad. The study examines how Iraq might adopt and modify comparable frameworks to support free market policies, improve consumer welfare, and promote industrial growth by comparing them to the United Arab Emirates' (UAE) effective implementation of competition legislation. Based on the UAE's strategy, the study suggests actions Iraq should take to create strong competition laws, such as bolstering judicial processes, strengthening regulatory frameworks, and boosting institutional capabilities. These initiatives seek to advance sustainable economic growth and bring Iraq into compliance with international norms. Iraq may foster a fair, competitive environment that draws investment and advances its sociopolitical and economic goals by putting in place a regulatory framework influenced by the UAE's experience. To guarantee the efficient execution and supervision of competition laws, the report suggests collaborating with regional partners like the United Arab Emirates and launching extensive reforms in Iraq's regulatory agencies.

Abstract
This essay looks at Iraq's attempts to stabilize its administrative and economic sectors in the face of difficulties brought on by both internal and foreign causes that have put a strain on the country's resources. The necessity for regulatory changes, especially the enactment and enforcement of an Anti-Monopoly Law (AML), has been highlighted by problems including excessive unemployment, a lack of public funding, and pervasive administrative inefficiencies. This law is essential for combating corruption and governmental monopoly activities, which have hampered public sector performance and caused administrative disarray. The study looks at how unfair practices that compromise justice and equitable governance have been sustained in Iraq's administrative sector due to ineffective AML enforcement. This study illustrates the advantages of adopting AML in reducing anti-competitive practices and promoting fair market dynamics by comparing China's Anti-Monopoly Law with an examination of Mexican anti-competitive laws. Iraq can significantly improve administrative performance and ensure fair competition by putting in place a strong AML framework that restricts government overreach and lessens cooperation between public officials and private entities. This will ultimately support a more balanced economy and fairer governance.

Abstract
This essay discusses the many obstacles Iraq must overcome as it negotiates the swift digital transition brought about by new technology. Iraq urgently needs updated legal frameworks to handle sophisticated digital crimes that impede fair competition in light of the country's growing digital economy and emerging technical frontiers. The dynamics of digital markets cannot be adequately regulated by current anti-monopoly and competition laws since they are unable to keep up with dangers unique to the digital sphere, like information crimes. The effectiveness of Iraq's current legal, regulatory, and judicial systems in thwarting monopolistic behaviors and fostering competition in the digital age is examined in this paper. The study suggests a multifaceted strategy for bolstering Iraq's legal framework and competition laws, starting with significant investments in digital infrastructure and public-private cooperation. Increasing worker specialization, raising awareness of digital crimes, updating competition rules to match technology advancements, and broadening digital access across areas are some of the main recommendations. The report also calls on government agencies, business players, and non-governmental organizations to coordinate their activities and promotes international alliances to build technical oversight capacities. Iraq can strengthen its position in the global digital economy, encourage fair competition, and support economic growth by putting in place a robust digital regulatory framework
Abstract
Through this research, the aim is to answer a number of questions that accompany the research problem of defining the concept of water security, as well as to show the extent of the effects of water security on sustainable agricultural development in Iraq for the period (2004-2022), as well as identifying water security challenges, as well as identifying alternatives to water security supplies to create sustainable agricultural development in Iraq, given the information available today.
In this research, the researcher relied on the extrapolation process mainly, which is based on observing the effects of water security on sustainable agricultural development in Iraq for the period (2004-2022), and then there may be another scientific approach that we will resort to in the course of our treatment of the issue, which is the analytical method while following some standard procedures to understand the nature of the data and variables that affect the crisis.
Among the most prominent results of the research: German revenues received to Iraq fluctuated from the year (2004-2022), falling below (30 billion m3) in dry years, as the results showed that agricultural activity ranked first in the process of consumption of German resources, which affects and is affected by water security, at the same time, the contribution of this activity to the pollution of surface waters due to the use of fertilizers and pesticides, and the various solid and liquid agricultural waste poses on the German Environment, and then sustainable agricultural development is significantly affected by its agricultural results, and the results surface degradation of its quality as a result of storage and causes contaminated water discharged from In general, the water crisis in Iraq was not largely a problem of shortage or scarcity of available resources, nor accelerated population growth or a deficit in financial capabilities, but it is primarily a matter of failure and imbalance in agricultural policies and misuse of the human factor of the available resources in the region with the absence of political will and seriousness in action, and we have noted through this research that food production and achieving an increase in it is dependent on Water Resources, which is a determining factor in achieving both sustainable agricultural development and water security, and that the use of Water Resources in the Iraqi agricultural sector may also To some extent, it failed to rid the state budget of import restrictions and burdens, as access to food for the Iraqi citizen is still dependent on what the West ships, especially with regard to strategic foods such as cereals, which means poor efficiency of use of Water Resources in sustainable agricultural development.
The study recommended: In the absence of water security policies and strategies that regulate the management of the water sector, it is imperative to develop policies and action programs for the integrated management of water resources, as well as protecting water sources from pollution, which requires the activation of laws and legislations for water conservation and the construction of sewage and industrial water treatment plants to ensure the protection of German resources, as well as expanding the use of modern irrigation techniques such as spray and drip irrigation, redirecting water paths and distribution channels, lining irrigation channels and using pipes and automatic control gates to transport and distribute water, as well as Therefore, it is important to study and address this issue through the development of a comprehensive drought strategy in the long term in coordination with local, national and regional levels, and finally the development of national and regional plans to rationalize water uses, including the search for new resources and the study of the economics of their use and protection.

Abstract
This research aims to examine the role of time-directed resource consumption accounting (TD-RCA) techniques in achieving competitive advantage for economic units by improving costing accuracy, rationalizing resource consumption, and enhancing product quality. TD-RCA relies on analyzing resource consumption based on the actual time of activities, which helps determine the fair cost of products, reduce waste, and achieve higher operational efficiency.
Process reengineering also contributes to the redesign of manufacturing activities with the aim of eliminating unnecessary processes and enhancing customer value, leading to reduced costs and improved product quality. The research focuses on the application of these two techniques in a ready-made garment factory in Najaf. The results showed that combining the two techniques helps reduce overall costs, increase the factory's competitiveness, and enhance its responsiveness to market demands.
The research recommends the adoption of these modern techniques in cost management, given their positive impact on achieving a sustainable competitive advantage, achieving optimal resource utilization, and enhancing production efficiency.
Abstract
Despite the successive governments’ efforts to achieve the dimensions of sustainable development in Iraq, the current reality indicates that Iraq remains one of the countries lagging in this field. Therefore, this research analyzes the status of the banking sector in light of banking reforms and the capital market’s role in promoting and achieving the dimensions of sustainable development. It sheds light on some key indicators and concludes with a set of findings, the most important of which is that Iraq is still behind in realizing sustainable development due to the difficult circumstances it faces. These include the persistent deficit in the general budget, the lack of genuine efforts to achieve sustainable development, increasing environmental pollution, and the widespread phenomenon of financial and administrative corruption, all of which can undermine any development plan. The research concludes with a set of recommendations, the most significant of which are: monitoring the outcomes of strategic plans set by government institutions within their work programs and disclosing achievement rates in creating opportunities, employment, and realizing the benefits of large-scale production; strengthening cooperation between banks and the capital market by having banks offer diversified financial and investment services within the capital market; establishing green investment funds jointly financed by banks and investors to support sustainable development; and raising awareness among investors about the importance of sustainable development and their role in achieving it.
Abstract
Sustainable development refers to the rational use and efficient investment of resources to ensure biological and environmental balance while preserving the rights of future generations. Entrepreneurship is a powerful and effective tool for achieving this development. The Iraqi Ministry of Planning has approved the 2030 Sustainable Development Strategy in accordance with the agenda launched by the United Nations. Therefore, this research aims to shed light on the available capabilities, challenges facing sustainable development, and the levels of achievement of its goals.
Iraq is still lagging behind in achieving the seventeen Sustainable Development Goals, and this requires attention. A national strategy should be adopted to revitalize all sectors and encourage innovation, while supporting and improving youth training opportunities and creating job opportunities commensurate with their academic and professional qualifications. Work should also be done to achieve social peace and reform budgeting systems for programs to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals.
Abstract
This research aims to analyze and evaluate the liquidity and banking performance indicators of the Bank of Baghdad for the period (2018–2023). Liquidity in Iraqi commercial banks is a crucial economic issue that impacts the financial and banking performance of the country, especially due to economic and political fluctuations that may hinder banks from providing sufficient funding for investment projects. This, in turn, negatively affects growth and production, leading to a decline in the financial performance of commercial banks. The research is based on the hypothesis that liquidity has a significant impact on banking performance. It adopts the deductive approach by combining both descriptive-analytical and quantitative methods. The study includes two variables: one independent and one dependent. The independent variable is the banking liquidity shock, while the dependent variables are banking performance, represented by the return on investment (ROI) and earnings per share (EPS). The researcher concluded that the Bank of Baghdad experienced very high liquidity ratios during the study period, indicating its ability to meet obligations and fulfill customer demands. This suggests that the bank enjoys strong financial performance and a solid credit position. However, profitability rates declined due to the bank’s efforts to balance liquidity and profitability.
Abstract
Public expenditures undertaken by the government are the basic element in providing the public life requirements of individuals and thus achieving development goals in general. However، public expenditures in Iraq are characterized by the fact that a large portion of them goes as current expenditures، while a small portion of them is directed to investment in various economic sectors، including health. education and others. Therefore، the research concluded that there is a large deficit in Iraq between the great actual need for services and achieving the planned development requirements and the low actual reality، especially in the health sector. The research recommended that there should be special attention in this sector by the government to ensure Sustainable annual growth in providing and improving these services to all individuals in Iraq in order to achieve the sustainable development goals that the United Nations seeks to achieve until 2030.
