This research aims to highlight the concept and importance of banking governance mechanisms, study and understand banking risks, and then examine the role of banking governance mechanisms—namely, the board of directors, disclosure, transparency, and capital adequacy—in managing banking risks in Iraqi banks. To achieve these objectives, the research sample consisted of private commercial banks listed on the Iraq Stock Exchange during the period 2010-2021, namely Baghdad Bank, Al-Mansour Investment Bank, National Bank of Iraq, and Gulf Commercial Bank. The banking risk indicators included credit, liquidity, and exchange rate. The research concluded that adherence to governance principles and mechanisms can enhance the role of banking risks in aligning with the objectives of the board of directors, transparency and disclosure, and the interests of shareholders and stakeholders, thereby increasing their confidence The study recommends strengthening the implementation of banking governance mechanisms, particularly by enhancing the role of the board of directors, improving transparency and disclosure practices, and maintaining adequate capital adequacy levels, as these measures contribute significantly to mitigating banking risks and promoting financial stability in Iraqi banks.
Abstract
The paper aimed to measure the impact of total banking risks and indicate the extent of their impact on economic stability for the period 2004-2021 using the bounds test. Two independent variables were identified to represent banking risks, namely (the ratio of non-performing loans to the total loans, the ratio of non-performing loans to the total capital), as well as Choosing some macroeconomic stability indicators as dependent variables: (bank capital, inflation, net trade balance ratio, net budget ratio, foreign reserves, banking concentration, standard of living). By increasing inflation rates, there is a negative impact of non-performing loans on the total loans and banking spread, as the high default rate of loans leads to a decline in the rate of banking prevalence, and there is a negative impact of non-performing loans on the total loans on the standard of living, as the high default rate of loans leads to To a decline in the average standard of living as a result of not granting loans to the population, and the research recommended that a study of the case of borrowers be considered before granting credit in order to reduce the default rate in loans by providing some guarantees to the banker, the need to use the indicator of the ratio of non-performing loans to total capital as one of the risks Banking that has an impact on the financial soundness of the bank, through what the sum of non-performing loans represents to the capital owned by the bank, and thus gives a clear vision of the capital owned by the bank
Abstract
The aim of the research is to clarify the role of financial engineering and its applicable tools in banks and how to manage banking risks. In order to achieve the research objective, the research problem was formulated with the following question: What is the role of financial engineering in managing and reducing banking risks?
Then the hypothesis was formulated to answer the research problem. The researcher relied on the descriptive analytical approach, as the researcher collected data and information through references and literature from books, periodicals, master’s theses, doctoral dissertations, Arab and foreign scientific journals, and browsing the international information network (the Internet) to track the latest scientific developments regarding the research topic.
The researcher reached a set of results, the most prominent of which is that risks are inherent in banking work without exception, regardless of the type of bank or the type of activity it carries out. Financial engineering tools were and still are the subject of great controversy among those dealing with them and studying them. Some of them strongly support their use, while others consider them the cause of financial crises.
The researcher also recommends the most important of which is establishing the foundations of financial engineering and financial risk management and clarifying their limits so that the bank can benefit from their tools and products. Paying attention to training accountants and intensifying communication work that increases the confidence of customers and society as a whole in the bank’s services, which reduces risks on the one hand and increases the size of the portfolio and deposits on the other hand.
Abstract
The global economy is going through multiple unexpected events and changes that will affect the banking sector, and therefore it is imperative to search for a tool that helps protect the banking institution and the banking sector, especially after the recent global financial crisis, as stress tests appeared, which in turn support management Risks in detecting banking risks before they arise, and therefore these tests give a dose of immunity to the banking community to protect it from expected and unexpected events. The research concluded that the banking stress test scenarios have partially affected the efficiency ratios that the banks have in the research sample, due to the durability of their financial suitability. Banks should apply the tests periodically and consider them as a shield that protects them from external influences.

Abstract
Commercial banks are the basic infrastructure in building the economy and business of any country, as commercial banks play a prominent role in the process of economic development, and most banks are exposed to many banking risks that may lead to instability in the financial system. Perhaps the most important of these risks is liquidity and credit risk, which are one of the important issues in commercial banks, as it is a source of concern for every bank, because the function for which the banks were found is to provide cash liquidity and grant credit. This research aims to clarify and analyze the relationship of (liquidity and credit) risks with banking safety indicators for a sample of commercial banks. Three commercial banks (the Commercial Bank of Iraq, the United Bank for Investment, and the Middle East Bank) were selected for the period (2010-2020) and the research was based on the following hypothesis It (there is a statistically significant correlation between credit and liquidity risks and banking safety indicators), and the research reached several results, the most important of which is that analyzing the relationship of liquidity and credit risk indicators with banking safety indicators helped policy makers and regulators identify strengths and weaknesses in commercial banks. easily, so that they can take preventive measures to avoid any crises or setbacks that hinder the work of banks. While the research recommended the necessity of urging Iraqi commercial banks to develop measurement and control tools and to develop effective contingency plans, in order to control liquidity and credit risks
