Search Results for environment

Abstract

Problem Statement: economic environment differs than before, due to the rapid strategic changes and high level of demand for qualified services and/ or goods, that leads to another sense of competing among businesses, especially in last decades of 20^th century, business environment involved in globalization to response and satisfy customers depending on the interaction between society as (external environment) and business’s infrastructure as (internal environment). These changes need a rapid response that means using new systems in planning strategies, organizing, leading and controlling as well to sustain and survive.

 Methodology: it is a descriptive paper that analyze the results through depending on non- experimental design through three (retrospective, longitudinal, and cross- sectional) indicators to examine environmental social responsibility ESP as one of balanced score card perspectives. Results: there is a positive impact of adopting ESRP to achieve qualified financial projects. Conclusion: the interlinkage between external environment (society) and internal one (business infrastructure) is very tight, but the horizon to understand this tight relationship is still fuzzy, due to the dynamic changes of those interlinkages and more efforts have to be done to enrich this phenomenon.

Relevant Indicators showed that there are external variables inherent in the general business environment that affect banking activity both directly and indirectly.

Abstract

The work environment and its components have gained great importance today due to the impact it has on its human capital. In recent years, studies have increased that discussed the negative and positive role of the work environment, as it is considered the main nerve of the organization’s success or failure. Here, we tried to shed light on some of the issues that can hinder the work of organizations and obstruct the achievement of their goals, including a toxic environment that makes employees feel the presence of penalties, the possibility of rejection, and being held guilty, with the necessity of constant defensiveness and humiliation. This is evident through the organizational leadership responsible for the organization, the culture of this organization and its employees, weak communication between them or dispersion, and the presence of blocs that cause fatigue and the impact they leave and the threat they pose if the matter is not addressed. This leads to a decrease in employee performance productivity, job attrition, an increase in work turnover, lack of progress at work, an inability to commit and achieve a balance between work and life, the occurrence of excessive professional fatigue, and conflicts that cause confusion in understanding roles. These are all signs that confirm the existence of a toxic work environment. Therefore, organizations whose environment is described as toxic face difficulty in maintaining, supporting, and attracting experienced human capital. One of the most important recommendations here is the necessity of encouraging and highlighting Positives and good relationships at work that serve the public interest and create a supportive social network that supports these relationships, while not forgetting to set red lines that should not be crossed and to maintain a safe distance with colleagues.

Abstract

Problem of the Research- lately the economic environment is completely differing than 20^th century and even than the last decades of 21^st century. Novel idioms, notable expectations have been innovated that related to economic, social, political and even behavioral aspects of life; the competency does not limit with qualified intellectual human resources rather than the use of knowledge and novel aspects of technologies due to the rapid dynamic development of virtual economy. Thus, global economies experienced a rebirth of economic system. 

Design, Methodology, Approach- it is an inductive study “UAE” as a sample; in which it extrapolates and analyze the studies and essays that related to economic digitization. Descriptive and analytical tools used to study the related aspects of phenomena. 

Finding- UAE in general and Dubai in specific has a great role in achieving many entrepreneurial projects as a part of intelligent governmental program. Digitization programs become an obvious feature in most governmental programs such as medical, smart educational and banking usages; meanwhile, these programs are available for all in a lowest price of cost. Dubai tries to follow its vision for (2020-2030) of achieving sustainability through rapid change in technology towards green-zone technology environment under the supervision of rational policy of decisions, then expands it experiences to UAE as a whole. 

Research limitations- implications- the study covers only studies and essays that related to scan UAE “Dubai” entrepreneurial projects for the last decade of 20^th century and early decades of 21^st century. 

Practical implications- the study confines to use the descriptive, analytical tools to study the related phenomena. 

Social implications- it specifics to review the Dubai Emirate as a society of study. 

Objectives of the Research

• Transferring the societies into digital ones to expand the career opportunities especially among adult talents.
• Distinguishing the economic digitalization & digital economy.
• Analyzing the main threats toward digital economy.
• Focusing on the role of digital economy especially for those graduated talents.

Importance of the Research- as far as the study reviews, few studies in Arabian libraries are handling this dynamic topic; and still the meaning of facilitating the digitization to achieve sustainability is not clear enough, meanwhile, UAE considered as a “Spark” to most of Arabian countries. Thus, having their successful experience of entrepreneurial projects would be a “guide” for followers. 

Abstract

Environmental planning is one of the most important plans and strategies for preserving the environment and achieving sustainable development at the level of the national economy, and with the increasing international interest in the components of the ecosystem in the planning process, mainly, and with the increasing problems and negative effects it faced represented by pollution, gas emissions, climate changes, depletion of natural resources and damage to generations present and future                                                                

This called for finding a future vision, policies, plans and strategies to protect the environment.                                                                                                                      

 In this context, Iraq tried to devote the importance of integrating the environmental dimension with the economic and social dimension by adopting the environmental planning method that focuses in its general sense on preserving the environment and on the biological balance in order to achieve human well-being, which is the goal and purpose of development.                                                                                                  

The problem of the research is that Iraq was exposed, especially after 2003, to conflicts and wars that had significant effects on the deterioration of the Iraqi environment. Treatments of war remnants in an analytical manner within the general framework of economic plans, and one of the most important results that were reached despite the development of economic plans in the field of environment are policies and strategies that work to protect the environment, but from a practical point of view it was difficult to materialize the goals and achieve the goals under the circumstances that Iraq passed.

Abstract

In light of the growing trend towards a market economy and the liberalization of trade exchanges, achieving a fair competitive environment has become one of the fundamental pillars of any economic system that seeks efficiency, innovation, and consumer protection. However, monopolistic practices – whether explicit or disguised – are among the most significant challenges that hinder this path, especially in countries where legislation still fails to keep up with the complexities of the modern market.

The Iraqi legislative environment, despite having a competition law, still suffers from a weakness in deterrent and monitoring tools, and a lack of specialized institutional mechanisms capable of monitoring and limiting monopolistic practices, especially those that take the form of covert alliances or control through technology. Despite the issuance of the Iraqi Competition and Anti-Monopoly Law No. 14 of 2010, the legislative and regulatory reality reveals a deep structural flaw in the ability to effectively confront monopolistic practices, The existing texts are characterized by a degree of generality and ambiguity, and do not reach the level of technical detail necessary to track modern monopolistic practices, especially those that occur through data control, hidden pricing, and cross-market alliances. Additionally, the absence of precise definitions for key concepts, such as 'dominance' and 'anti-competitive agreements', weakens the ability of courts and regulatory bodies to apply the texts rigorously and consistently. This is further compounded by institutional shortcomings. The concerned bodies responsible for law enforcement lack independence, human resources, and specialized technical capabilities, which often renders their oversight merely symbolic. Furthermore, the mechanisms for investigating monopolistic practices and the accompanying judicial procedures suffer from slowness and complexity, which undermines the deterrent effect of legal intervention. In light of these circumstances, an unequal market environment is reproduced, allowing certain economic actors to entrench their monopolistic positions at the expense of the principle of equal opportunities and consumer rights.

Abstract

The study dealt with diagnosing the quality of the external auditor's performance in view of international auditing standards and external environment variables. The study was based on a main hypothesis that states “the process of raising the quality of the external auditor’s performance and ensuring the fairness and objectivity of professional opinion within the auditor’s report that reflects the essence of control practices requires professional, technical and strict adherence to international auditing standards with consider the integrate with the external environment variables surrounding the entity subject to auditing" . In order to achieve the objectives of the study and test the validity of the hypotheses related to it, the researcher adopted the descriptive (correlational) approach, which aims to know the size and type of relationship between the variables, that is, to what extent the study variables are related to each other, sub-hypotheses were derived, which confirm the existence of a moral correlation with statistically significant between the international auditing standards and quality of the external auditor's performance, the external environment variables and quality of the external auditor's performance. This requires adoption a number of tools, including formulating and designing the questionnaire form in an accurate manner and making use of some previous studies in the process of designing that questionnaire in order to cover all study variables in a way that represents the study community correctly.
The study reached a set of conclusions and recommendations, the most important of which are , one of the most important determinants of the success of external audit practices and achieving quality in the auditing performance is that the task must assign to a professional and competent external auditor possessing a number of personal qualities , scientific and professional qualifications, including integrity, objectivity and transparency in expressing a professional opinion , as addressed by the international auditing standard that requires exercising professional care, availability of skill, competence and training in the external auditor, he must possess the ability to understand international auditing standards and the conditions for their application, possess impartiality in the process of gathering evidence, familiarity with the affairs of the entity subject to auditing and the nature of its relationship with other external bodies. He must also possess a tendency of professional skepticism, which indicates alertness to cases that may indicate the possibility of a misrepresentation due to an error or fraud and critical evaluation of evidence , In addition to these features, the external auditor requires accuracy in determining the entity to which the auditor’s report are directed and justice in formulating this report as it is considered a link between the auditor and the needs and requirements of many users, including senior management, investors and creditors, in order to contribute to strengthening corporate governance and facilitate the process of making decision.

Abstract

The study addresses the nature of the intertwined and integrated relationship between the organizational health of business organizations in the Iraqi tourism sector and strategic immunity, according to what these variables witness from the emergence of artificial intelligence with its capabilities and driving powers in supporting the organizational environment to predict potential risks and challenges during future periods, as well as increasing the level of transparency in the business environment and improving the integration of artificial intelligence in the organizational circle, starting from planning and passing through describing the nature of internal processes, reaching the achievement of targeted institutional goals. Thus, the three variables: artificial intelligence, strategic immunity, and organizational health are no longer just individual concepts, but have become institutionalized strategic tools prepared for the future.

One of the most important determinants of the current study lies in addressing an underexplored research area. To the best of our knowledge, there is a notable scarcity of prior studies that integrate strategic immunity, organizational health, artificial intelligence, and organizational culture within a unified framework. Existing Arab and international studies tend to examine these dimensions separately, rather than as interconnected drivers of digital organizational resilience.

The most important recommendations the researcher gives are : the necessity of the participation in establishing a board of accounting and auditing standards in Iraq through issuing local standards that are in line with those of international ones to fill the large gap between the Iraqi standards and the international ones

Abstract

In today's highly competitive business environment, information is the most important resource for all organizations, whether in the public or private sector. In most cases, this information is found in paper documents. Information capture systems (scanning, indexing) represent the first step in information management, allowing documents to be converted from a physical to an electronic format, as well as extracting the required information from them through digital archiving.

We also record our personal experiences and life events digitally on computers, phones, and other electronic devices, in the form of documents, emails, images, social media, and audio/video files. So, here digitization and digital archiving are very important?

Digitization and digital archiving, as an information security system, helps you to better manage personal information and records in digital repositories in an effective and secure way. It is about how you manage information and how you can make the most of it in an effective way that benefits you and your organization.

Digital archiving of documents is one of the main drivers of economic transformation, as information analysis allows you to benefit from making better decisions, which is essential for any organization regardless of its size, type, or complexity.

The development of technology and electronic communication systems in our lives has made it necessary to adopt them as a solution to the old problems that organizations face in their work. The difficulty of storing paper and keeping it safe from damage, despite the urgent need to return to it at times, led to the invention of a way to invest this technology in storing documents and information electronically. This resulted in the emergence of what is called digital archiving. Digital archiving is a necessity for website owners and businesses, as it is safe and secure in storing and retrieving all the required electronic data and files over the long term.

The process of digital archiving works to index electronic documents and files, and keep them until they are needed. It organizes this data and provides a copy of the original for use in research, auditing, and legal purposes.

The importance of digital archiving can be summarized in the following points:

• Quick access to the required information compared to the traditional archive method.
• No need to return to the paper archive and search through piles of papers.
• The ability to keep a huge amount of information that paper archiving cannot sometimes store.
• Reducing the number of employees (hidden unemployment) and tools, thus reducing the financial cost of companies.
• Facilitating the process of information exchange and sharing with others.
• Dispensing with unnecessary data.
• Developing the efficiency and quality of work using modern technologies.
• No need for large spaces in offices and institutions, and utilizing this space for more useful work.
• Conserving the environment by reducing waste and saving paper.

Digital archiving can also store a large number of data and information that is difficult to store in the traditional archive as it is an effective and scalable method.

Digital archiving plays an important role in meeting regulatory requirements through the use of technologies. The data stored is not subject to change or modification. Through digital archiving, you can find the required information regardless of its size.

In addition to providing security means for information by identifying the people who can access it with the ability for more than one user to enter at the same time. Digital archiving also features ease of use remotely, the ability to meet the needs of the organization, and at the same time reduces the risks that the organization may face during work. In addition to its ability to restore damaged data, the ability to export data and save incoming faxes and types of emails, and the ease of handling different types of files.

Therefore, the emergence of modern information technologies has necessitated a re-examination of the traditional concepts related to the archive and the processing of its contents of documents and dealing with them. The digital archive has emerged in all its technological dimensions, and it has taken on great importance due to its close association with the contemporary digital environment, going beyond the idea of digitization and electronic archiving of the traditional paper archive, to electronic practice in a purely digital environment. There are institutions that produce, store, and retrieve their archives in a purely electronic way in unprecedented conditions traditionally.

Abstract

This study aimed to determine the impact of organizational culture promotion mechanisms on the adoption of environmentally friendly technologies in the Iraqi Ministries of Environment and Industry and Minerals. While the impact of organizational culture has been extensively studied, its specific effect on the adoption of environmentally friendly technologies has not been previously investigated, which constitutes the epistemological problem addressed by this study. Furthermore, the Iraqi environment suffers from a lack of applied studies and empirical evidence related to environmental sustainability. Therefore, this study seeks to answer the central question: What is the impact of organizational culture promotion mechanisms on the adoption of environmentally friendly technologies? This study was conducted in the Iraqi Ministries of Environment and Industry and Minerals. Data were collected from a purposive sample of 110 senior administrative leaders in these ministries.

The study employed an inductive approach and used a descriptive-analytical method to present and analyze its data. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS and Amos software. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis was used to verify the quality of the study instrument and model. Descriptive analytical tools such as the arithmetic mean, standard deviation, and coefficient of variation were used to present, analyze, and interpret the study data. Simple regression was used to test the hypotheses.

The study concluded that the mechanisms adopted to enhance organizational culture constitute an integrated and interconnected system that fosters an organizational environment supportive of adopting environmentally friendly technologies. These mechanisms have a cumulative and interactive impact on promoting environmental values ​​and transforming them from mere theoretical concepts into daily organizational practices. When leadership adopts exemplary environmental behaviors and expresses a clear commitment, designs reward systems to encourage green practices, creates a flexible organizational culture adaptable to technological changes, uses rituals and symbols that reinforce environmental identity, and provides training programs that develop environmental awareness and skills, they collectively create a profound cultural shift. This shift makes the adoption of environmentally friendly technologies not merely a response to external demands, but an integral part of the organizational identity and an automatic behavior for employees at all levels.

Abstract

The emergence of integrated reporting on global warming represents an important evolutionary stage in the auditing profession, as the auditor has moved from his traditional role of examining or auditing information or pre-prepared lists with a specific financial formula to granting a certificate of confirmation in the preparation of this information or financial and even non-financial statements. This certificate (report) is distinguished by some specificity from the conventional audit report, as assurance services fall between the level of absolute assurance and the lack of assurance, and it contains a wide range of services that do not differ from the two types of reasonable assurance and limited assurance. Specialized professional organizations, including the AICPA, have issued a group Among the standards for these services in order to rationalize their practical application, and I found many obstacles that could face the process of preparing integrated reporting on global warming in the local environment. The researcher adopted the descriptive analytical approach in the theoretical framework, as well as collecting data about the work environment and then analyzing it in the applied framework. This is done by taking advantage of the SPSS program for statistics, as well as the analytical method using it on a sample of data issued by oil refineries. The sample was estimated at the refineries of Shuaiba and Doura. The researcher reached results, the most notable of which is that there are no appropriate controls for preparing integrated reporting, as there is a difference in views about the suitability of the IR framework. As a criterion for assurance, and in particular, current assurance standards, most notably the International Standard for Assurance ISAE 3410, The research community consists of the Daura and Shuaiba refineries in Iraq. The research sample comprises 140 employees working at the Daura and Shuaiba refineries. The researcher used both the survey questionnaire (paper and electronic) and the model reports as tools. In this context, the questionnaire form was distributed to the research sample, require appropriate controls to evaluate the subject matter of an assurance engagement and the practitioner provides reasonable or limited assurance regarding the extent to which the subject matter is compatible with a specific basis, and the researcher concluded that: The high cost of preparing the integrated report compared to its benefits. The cost is also considered a major obstacle to making the entire integrated report the subject of a confirmation engagement (IIRC 2015). Confirming the entire integrated report requires the participation of multiple experts, which will make the engagement very expensive.

There is a difference in the level of credibility and reliability provided by integrated reporting compared to auditing, as integrated reporting does not provide the same level of credibility and trust provided by auditing financial statements. This is due to various reasons, including that integrated reporting is less quantitative and more qualitative in nature. The new form of assurance may fail to have the same confidence as an audit of financial statements. As a result, before embarking on making radical changes in current assurance models, sufficient time must be given. To refine its integrated reports and deal with stakeholders to determine the extent of the actual need for external confirmation, and the diversity of the nature of integrated reporting mechanisms, as the integrated nature of reporting processes and the many types of information reported require innovative forms to enhance credibility that can accommodate the link between the various components of integrated reporting. The researcher presented a main proposal to overcome the obstacles in integrated reporting of global warming, as she recommended that concerned parties adopt strategies such as strengthening cooperation and partnerships with other parties, providing training and continuous development for employees, and improving internal systems and processes to facilitate the reporting process.

Abstract

In addition to, in light of this the research recommends the need to qualify administrative accountants with technical qualifications that help them to deal with the realities of the Fourth Industrial Revolution.

Abstract

This research aims to identify the contribution made by competition in helping young people implement their medium, small and micro projects, in order to ensure their success and achieve the desired goals, specifically in the early stages of establishing these projects. The research problem confirmed that many young people rely on the main pillars of competition (cost, quality, creativity, flexibility) in implementing their projects, but they do not have sufficient knowledge about their most important cognitive contents and how to invest them in competition with others. Accordingly, there is a cognitive deficiency more than a field deficiency in this field. As for the importance of the research, it was represented in presenting a set of proposals that contribute to enhancing the ability of the researched sample and society to invest in the relationship between competition and the success of youth projects (medium, small, and micro). Accordingly, this research aims to diagnose the reality of these two variables and discover the relationships of association and influence between them. To complete the research in its theoretical and field areas, the descriptive approach was adopted. The researchers also relied on a set of previous ideas in designing the questionnaire that was used in collecting data, after testing and adapting it to suit the Iraqi environment, which was distributed to a sample of young people with projects (medium, small, and micro) in the Shorjah area and the Arab market in Baghdad, numbering (376) individuals. The researchers also used measures of central tendency in processing the data from a statistical perspective using a set of tools available in the statistical program (SPSS.v23). These statistical tools provided researchers with a set of results that confirmed the application of the foundations of competition (cost, quality, creativity, flexibility), and youth projects (medium, small, and micro) to a high degree from a statistical point of view. Moreover, the foundations of competition contribute to a moral and statistical degree in enhancing the ability of youth to implement their projects and their success. Accordingly, the researchers recommended reviewing the world's experiences and the mechanisms that were adopted to encourage competition among youth, in addition to the support that was provided to them, whether materially or morally, and helping them build their various projects, and trying to transfer them to the Iraqi environment to invest their results and employ them in innovating various projects, whether (medium, small, and micro).

Abstract

Theoretical Framework:

This study addressed the phenomenon of quiet quitting as a behavior manifested in employees performing only the minimum required work without showing additional commitment or initiative. This phenomenon is linked to causes such as burnout, lack of appreciation, and the absence of career advancement opportunities, making it a direct threat to employee engagement and organizational performance stability. The study aimed to explore the relationship between the dimensions of digital leadership and the dimensions of quiet quitting among the employees of Al-Maram Advertising Company.

Objective:

The study aimed to test the hypotheses regarding the relationship and impact between the dimensions of digital leadership — namely (digital leaders' competence, digital leaders' capability, organizational structure, and organizational strategy) — and the dimensions of quiet quitting — represented by (work overload, unfair compensation, poor work environment, and lack of career advancement opportunities). It also sought to analyze how digital leadership contributes to reducing levels of quiet quitting.

Methodology:

The study employed a quantitative analysis based on questionnaires distributed to employees of Al-Maram Advertising Company, with data collected from 48 employees in addition to interviews with senior and middle management. A structural model was designed to illustrate the direct effects of each digital leadership dimension on quiet quitting.

Findings:

The study revealed a statistically significant inverse relationship between all dimensions of digital leadership (competence, capability, structure, and strategy) and manifestations of quiet quitting among Al-Maram employees. Collectively, digital leadership accounted for 92% of the variance in quiet quitting (R² = 0.922), with digital leaders' competence having the strongest effect (β = -0.755). While the contributions of the other dimensions were smaller, they remained statistically significant. The results confirm that enhancing digital leadership practices effectively reduces the likelihood of employees’ psychological withdrawal.

Recommendations:

The study recommended that Al-Maram Advertising Company focus on improving digital leaders’ competence through specialized training programs in digital leadership, and activates clear strategies for leveraging technology in communication and motivation. It also advised restructuring the work environment to align with digital transformation requirements. Moreover, the study recommended developing clear promotion and recognition policies to ensure employee motivation and reduce the likelihood of quiet quitting, thereby enhancing employee engagement and sustaining the company’s high performance.

Abstract

The concept of sustainable development has become a popular slogan in contemporary organizations. Today, it is the central focus of the programs of many governmental and non-governmental organizations, as well as many companies around the world. Sustainable development refers to meeting the needs of individuals without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. Here, marketing plays an important role, not only by aligning a company’s strategy with the environment, but also by promoting the importance of implementing this concept. Green marketing relies on the use of promotional methods that focus on the environmental benefits of products and services. By marketing sustainable solutions, companies such as Asia Renewable Energy (the case study) can, according to our research findings, raise environmental awareness among their audiences and encourage consumers to adopt environmentally friendly behaviors. Marketing green products not only promotes the environment but also reflects social values that respect human rights and equality. By applying the principles of sustainability, companies enhance the well-being of society by providing clean, sustainable energy that contributes to reducing pollution and improving the quality of life. Marketing innovations in renewable energy contributes to stimulating demand for these solutions, which enhances the ability of companies to grow sustainably. By focusing on marketing solar, wind or other renewable technologies, companies like Asia Renewable Energy can contribute to the transition to a low-carbon society. Asia Renewable Energy can serve as an excellent example of applying green marketing strategies to support sustainable development. Some of the points that can be highlighted in this study are: Renewable energy products and services The company’s focus on providing clean and sustainable energy solutions, such as solar panels and wind power. Using new or innovative technologies in the field of renewable energy, which enhances its position in the market as an environmentally responsible company. Organizing media campaigns on various platforms to raise awareness about the benefits of renewable energy and its impact on reducing the carbon footprint. Working to support development projects in local communities, such as providing clean energy to remote areas, which enhances its social role. Through these strategies, Asia Renewable Energy can effectively contribute to achieving sustainable development at the environmental and societal levels.

Abstract

This research aims to explore the importance of financial analysis and its contribution to enhancing environmental performance evaluation by utilizing financial ratios in financial analysis and addressing environmental issues to improve and maintain the environment and performance of government units. The research problem centres on the negative impact of neglecting financial analysis of financial statements and the financial information they contain regarding environmental performance on making appropriate decisions in performance evaluation. Therefore, the researchers sought to prove the hypothesis that using financial ratios in financial analysis and comparing financial information with non-financial information enhances environmental performance evaluation procedures. The study examined the environmental reality of the Medical City Directorate under the Ministry of Health, which is considered a unit affecting the environment. It involved an analytical review of the issued reports and financial analysis of the budget execution statement. The research concluded that the government unit in question showed weak environmental performance due to insufficient attention to pollution control, affecting most environmental aspects, and failure to apply environmental laws and regulations. Key recommendations include the need to comply with environmental laws and regulations and the necessity of establishing an environmental auditing plan or program to cover all environmental activities of the directorate.

Abstract

Abstract

The research aims to activate forensic accounting within the Iraqi environment by the auditor by working as a judicial expert specialized in the accounting aspect (forensic accountant) to provide judicial services to the legal authorities represented by judicial support services. The problem of the research is not giving a role to a person who is scientifically and practically qualified to look into the relevant issues as a judicial expert specialized in the accounting aspect (judicial accountant) in the Iraqi courts.

The researcher concluded that: activating forensic accounting is a remedy for the weakness in the performance level of judicial experts within the Iraqi environment, and that the auditor works to strengthen judicial services and possesses extensive scientific and practical experience to address the shortcomings of the current experts specialized in the accounting aspect. And one of the most important conclusions reached by the researcher is the presence of reluctance to consider issues related to the relevant jurisdiction, which led to the failure to resolve those issues due to the selection of unsuitable people, which led to a weakness in the judicial experience and thus a reason for weakness in the decisions issued by the legal authorities.  

Abstract

Debt structure is a crucial focal point in banking sector performance, as the distribution of debt between short-term and long-term affects financial risks and the market value of banks. Within the Iraqi economic environment undergoing structural transformations, analysing this impact emerges as a strategic tool to enhance banking stability and attract investments. This study provides an in-depth analytical perspective on the impact of debt structure dimensions (short-term, long-term, and total) on the performance of Iraqi commercial banks, based on comprehensive field data and advanced statistical models, to offer actionable recommendations. This study aimed to analyse the impact of debt structure dimensions (short-term debt, long-term debt, and total debt) on the market value of Iraqi commercial banks. The study adopted the descriptive-analytical approach. The study population comprised (366) individuals from top, middle, and executive management levels, utilizing a comprehensive survey method. A set of statistical tools was employed, including (percentages, frequencies, arithmetic means, standard deviations, factor loadings, and impact analysis), relying on the (SmartPLS.4) program for structural equation modelling. The results revealed a high level of the overall performance indicator for both debt structure and market value. Furthermore, they demonstrated a statistically significant impact of all debt structure dimensions on the market value of the banking sector under study. In light of the findings, the study recommended developing programs to issue medium/long-term bonds in partnership with the Central Bank of Iraq (CBI), allocating at least 20% of the credit portfolio to this type of financing to support infrastructure projects with stable returns.

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

The goal of the paper is to reach the optimal decision by building the Fuzzy Linear Programming Model (FLPM) with fuzzy parameters represented by demand and production quantities. The study problem lies in the range that the model contributes to removing the uncertainty in determining the optimal amount of production, and to reach this value, available programs (MatlabV.10, Win Q.S.B V.2) were used to obtain the results of the optimal solution. The hypothesis of this study is that the Fuzzy Inference System (FIS) contributes to the uncertainty of the amount of production and demand. The research was based on an applied study of real data taken from the Iraqi General Cement Company, which is one of the most active companies in the Iraqi industry environment. Four factories (Kufa, Najaf, Babylon, Badoush al tawseea) were selected with their sample products for the company. The study used the model's order quantities, production requirements, and production quantity with Triangular Fuzzy Numbers (TFN). One of the most important conclusions reached by the researcher is that the data adopted from the four factors and the results of the analysis are that the output in these coefficients is fuzzy and unstable, and that the application of fuzzy logic is an effective way to get rid of the uncertainty.

Abstract

The study sought to activate the learning dimensions of the organization to become a (learning organization) capable of managing its strategic crises, so learning is the way that preserves its potential and strengthens its capabilities to be more rapid in reaction to successive changes and crises, so if organizations want to be effective in an environment dominated by uncertainty It has to rely on its ability to learn, and the availability of its dimensions will provide it with the ability to manage its strategic crises. Hence, the research problem started through a set of research implications that were:
- Is there a correlation relationship between the learning organization and strategic crisis management.?
- Is there an effect of the learning organization in strategic crisis management?
- Is there a contribution to the dimensions of the learning organization in strategic crisis management.?
The research assumed the existence of these dimensions in the researched organizations and how these dimensions affect the organization’s strategic crisis management, in order to achieve a flexible response to the turbulent changes of the crisis, and to achieve these objectives, a set of field-tested hypotheses were formulated by adopting the opinions of the members of the research sample, in order to accurately test the hypotheses and ensure their validity. Relying on a number of statistical methods appropriate for these relationships.
The research reached a set of Conclusions which confirmed its hypotheses to show the existence of a positive moral correlation as well as the existence of a moral impact of the learning organization in strategic crisis management. The educational dimensions of the organization as an explanatory variable have been identified 68% of the change in strategic crisis management as a responding variable. To present a set of recommendations aimed at activating the positive relations achieved and indicating the aspects that need to redraw their future paths in the researched organizations in particular and the corresponding organizations in general to confront the multiple crises, especially the (Covid-19) crisis.

Abstract

This study aims to develop a therapeutic model to combat administrative and financial corruption, grounded in the principles of accountability, transparency, and the prevention of misuse of administrative authority. It also seeks to identify the key obstacles hindering anti-corruption efforts and propose viable solutions to overcome them.

    Corruption is one of the most dangerous global phenomena threatening the security, stability, and prosperity of nations and societies. It has become a persistent challenge, especially in Iraq, where corruption has infiltrated most public institutions, contributing significantly to the disruption of economic development, progress, and institutional reform.

    In recent years, corruption has exacerbated rates of unemployment and poverty and intensified social, economic, security, intellectual, and political crises. Its danger lies in its ability to spread like a "dormant virus" that activates when it finds a supportive social environment. Since April 9, 2003, Iraq has witnessed an unprecedented wave of corruption, prompting the state to adopt public policies—primarily theoretical in nature—to address this phenomenon and preserve the state's integrity at both domestic and international levels.

    While numerous legislative, executive, and oversight measures have been undertaken—across media, economic, security, and social domains—they often lack a comprehensive, actionable model to eradicate corruption from its roots.

Accordingly, this study proposes a therapeutic model based on accountability and transparency to safeguard citizens’ rights, promote justice, enhance security, and reinforce governance structures. The model responds to growing calls—from religious, social, educational, economic, and media entities—to instill a culture of integrity, strengthen anti-corruption frameworks, and intensify the recovery of stolen public funds. Legislative frameworks have evolved to address corruption in its multiple dimensions—security-related, psychological, economic, media-related, and social—while states have employed various strategies, such as enhanced accountability, participatory governance, transparency improvements, and comprehensive reform initiatives.

At the local level, corruption results in misallocation of resources, wastage of public funds, inefficiency in public services, weakened local development potential, poor planning, a deteriorated investment climate, and low economic growth.

To ensure the effectiveness of this proposed model, the outcomes of relevant research and studies must be adopted and integrated into a comprehensive and actionable anti-corruption roadmap. This includes clearly defining the roles, responsibilities, and powers of all concerned institutions to achieve legislative and procedural coherence

Abstract

Foreign trade is one of the basic sectors of any country's economy. It is of great importance in developing economic relations between countries worldwide, especially developed and developing countries, through the import and export of goods and services, both visible and invisible, and the movement of capital and gold trading. Foreign trade activities are usually carried out through the mechanism of linking the exchange rate of the local currency to foreign currencies. The importance of this study lies in highlighting the fluctuations in the exchange rate of the Iraqi dinar against a basket of foreign currencies, especially the US dollar. These fluctuations directly affect the economy in general and the costs of importing goods and services in particular. This study aims to measure and analyze the impact of exchange rate fluctuations on Iraqi imports for the period 2004–2023. To achieve the study objective, the study relied on time series data and used the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) model to analyze the relationship between the dependent and explanatory variables in the long and short term. The study found a statistically significant positive relationship at the 5% level between the exchange rate and imports in the long term, which means that the rise in exchange rates in Iraq led to an increase in the volume of imports during the study period. based on these results, the study recommends the need to create a stable economic environment for the exchange rate of the Iraqi dinar against foreign currencies, especially the US dollar, in addition to strengthening the role of the Central Bank of Iraq in controlling the official and parallel exchange rates to limit their negative impact on the increase in consumer imports.

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

Sustainable supplier selection is an essential part of the decision-making process in sustainable supply chains. This choice is focusing on social, economic, and environmental criteria in evaluation of suppliers. Sustainable supplier selection approaches have used both qualitative and quantitative data. Therefore, it is meaningful to use scientific methods that treatment both quantitative and qualitative data, as well as multiple criteria. 

Analytical network process (ANP) is a one of the important multi-criteria decisions –making approaches.  Also, the ANP technique is a general form that allows possible independency among criteria factors. This paper aims to select the best suppliers using an (ANP) approach which helps decision-makers to reach the best strategy with correct decisions. Using ANP each criterion has its assign weight, which reflects its importance for the process of comparison between alternatives to suppliers. The presented approach consists of the three main steps:  the first step is to identify the criteria used in the comparison process between suppliers, the second step is to identify the decision matrix using AHP and the third step is to construct the super matrix and limiting super matrix and compare between the alternatives, and rank them from the best to the worst through using ANP. This work has used the data as in [30] which represents data for a company that has four suppliers and five criteria. The results show that the best supplier is supplier 2, which has weight equal to 39%. Also, our results are matching the AHP result that is presented in [30]. Moreover, this work can be extended for future work using fuzzy environment and real application such as Iraqi oil companies.

Abstract

The industrial policy in Iraq after 2003 contributed to the decline in the sustainability component of economic growth And the lack of economic growth in Iraq to the element of sustainability after 2003, as a result of the continued dependence on crude oil, and the decline in the relative importance of the manufacturing sector in the economic structure, and the trends of economic policies and industrial policy contributed to the exacerbation of this result. The strategies and directions that were put forward after 2003 are based on betting on the private sector and market mechanisms to advance this sector in return for excluding the state and limiting its activity to a purely regulatory framework through the adoption of a horizontal industrial policy. This paper calls for the adoption of a rational, realistic approach to address the problems of the industrial sector, based on combining the role of the market and the role of industrial policy. Market mechanisms alone cannot achieve production efficiency and social justice in light of problems and imbalances, and the presence of high unemployment, as well as the deterioration of the business environment and the weakness of the side. Security and its well-known complexities. The desired reform in which the state should play a balanced and integrated role with the market, especially that the local private sector in Iraq, due to its well-known conditions, needs for a long time the state and its support.

Abstract

This research aims to identify the role of strategic leadership, through its dimensions (clarity of strategic direction, rational use of authority, and ethical and value framework), in achieving outstanding performance in the private universities included in the research sample. (153) valid questionnaires were distributed to the research sample, which included senior and middle management. The data were processed and analyzed using several statistical methods, most notably (arithmetic mean, standard deviation, coefficient of variation, Pearson correlation coefficient, and simple linear regression) using the SPSS V28 statistical software. One of the most important conclusions reached by the research is the existence of a statistically significant correlation between strategic leadership (with its three dimensions: clarity of strategic direction, rational use of authority, and ethical and value framework) and the level of outstanding performance in private universities. This indicates that adopting these dimensions contributes to enhancing the universities' ability to improve their focus on beneficiaries, develop their internal processes, and improve their human resource management as key inputs for institutional excellence. The research recommends the necessity of adopting an integrated strategic leadership system in private universities, based on developing clear and updated documents and strategies, promoting organized delegation of powers, establishing the ethical framework, building leadership and human capacities, and supporting a culture of innovation and continuous improvement, in a way that contributes to raising the levels of institutional performance and achieving excellence in the higher education environment.

Abstract

Universities worldwide have recognized the challenges of digital transformation in the face of rapid technological advancements, which have become an integral part of the educational system for all academic programs. This integration brings numerous advantages to all stakeholders in the educational process. Traditional methods, techniques, and tools have become outdated, prompting universities to enter into agreements with specialized global companies in technology, software, and tools. These agreements aim to equip their infrastructure for the educational process across various academic programs and disciplines, building knowledge and skills for students and preparing them for the job market in the era of digital transformation affecting all sectors.

Digital transformation is no longer an option but a necessity for institutions striving to enhance their efficiency and ensure their sustainability. The rapid growth of digital technology, advancements in smart devices and systems, increased data processing capabilities, and artificial intelligence have led to revolutionary changes. Dealing with the digital society requires investment in human resources and competencies possessing digital skills, capabilities, passion, ambition, and dialogue. This entails adopting a comprehensive approach to teaching methods, focusing on future requirements.

As mentioned earlier, digital transformation has become an urgent necessity that educational institutions seek to establish and dedicate. Educational technologies and digital platforms are not just concepts; they are now essential practices for the educational and learning processes. Universities need to leverage digital technologies to improve educational processes and practices, enhance learner and teacher experiences, and support the creation of effective and enduring educational models. Digital transformation helps universities operate more efficiently, remain competitive in global rankings and accreditations, and succeed in preparing learners for digital work environments.

In this context, digitization is a necessity in higher education institutions, attracting top students and improving the experience of courses, educational materials, and training processes in general. It enables monitoring and tracking to identify obstacles and challenges in training and reduce the risk of dropout. However, hesitation in understanding and seizing opportunities to move towards this digital environment still exists. It is essential for digital transformation to align with communication principles, ensuring its commitment to meet the expectations of various groups interested in economic, social, and environmental dimensions.

Abstract

The research includes the nature of the relationship between the causes of drug abuse as a dependent variable as a result of the effects of economic and social factors in the world with reference to Iraq as an independent variable. The research aims to clarify the complex interaction of many components surrounding society that lead to the alarming rise in drug abuse. By examining the network of socio-economic conditions and drug abuse, this analysis seeks to provide a broad understanding of the root causes, patterns and suggestions for individuals and societies. The study begins by discovering the socio-economic factors that force individuals to abuse drugs. Economic disparities, limited access to education and employment opportunities, and inadequate health care resources arise as major motivators. The study thus explores how these factors make the environment vulnerable to drug abuse, as individuals facing economic hardship may help to abuse drugs as a coping mechanism or a means of escape. Ultimately, this analysis advances the current debate on drug abuse by providing a nuanced understanding of the complex relationship between socioeconomic factors and drug abuse, and by highlighting the complex web of influences as causal variables for drug abuse, the study offers solutions and policy changes that can positively impact individuals and communities exacerbated by this prevalent concern

Abstract

This study aims to compare and improve the methods of building investment portfolios for a sample of Iraqi banks listed on the Iraq Stock Exchange, by comparing traditional methods such as the Markowitz model with modern techniques based on machine learning. The Markowitz model is key to balancing return and risk across the medium-variance optimization framework, a traditional model that many financial institutions rely on. The study focused on exploring the extent to which machine learning techniques such as key component analysis (PCA), supporting vector machine (SVM), logistic regression, and random forest can improve the performance of the investment portfolios of these banks in a volatile environment such as the Iraq Stock Exchange. These techniques rely on processing and analyzing huge financial data to discover hidden patterns and relationships that help increase returns and reduce risk more effectively compared to traditional methods. The historical financial data related to the shares and assets of the banks of the research sample in the Iraq Stock Exchange was used to evaluate the performance of portfolios according to indicators such as expected return, variance, and Sharpe ratio. The study aims to provide innovative solutions that help banks make smarter and more effective investment decisions, commensurate with the local market conditions and the economic and political challenges they face.

Abstract

The research aims to address the epistemological foundations of green budgeting and compare it with traditional budgeting in terms of principles and fundamentals, as well as the impact of both types of budgeting on the environment and sustainable development. Most countries worldwide are facing significant environmental challenges, necessitating the replacement of traditional fiscal policies with financial policies that integrate environmental goals within economic objectives. The study relies on previous research related to the variables under investigation to describe and analyze budgeting methodologies and compare them. Data were collected based on content analysis of previous studies and recorded observations.The research concludes that green budgeting is an effective tool for achieving sustainable development by integrating environmental policy with the state's financial policy, thereby balancing economic and environmental considerations simultaneously. Additionally, it finds that green budgeting supports the circular economy rather than the linear economy.The study recommends adopting green budgeting as a modern approach to government budget preparation. It also suggests enacting laws and regulations by the legislative authority to support the green budgeting approach, such as imposing environmental standards on government and private sector projects, promoting and supporting investment in environmentally friendly activities, and developing indicators to measure both financial and environmental performance. These indicators would assess progress resulting from green budgeting implementation, such as reductions in carbon emissions and their impact on treatment cost reductions, increased use of renewable energy, and decreased fossil fuel consumption costs.

Abstract

The research aims to highlight the role of lean manufacturing principles in enhancing the requirements of green manufacturing at Al- Karwanchi Company for beverages, healthy water, juices, dairy products, and energy drinks. The research problem lies in the company's lack of attention to recycling its products, despite using raw recyclable materials, leading to increased waste accumulation and environmental and health issues. This situation negatively impacts the environment and increases the costs of waste disposal and non-biodegradable materials.

To address this, adopting lean manufacturing principles becomes essential, as they focus on reducing waste and improving production efficiency to meet green manufacturing requirements. A questionnaire was designed for data collection and distributed to a sample of employees in the company, with 242 questionnaires collected from a population of 548 individuals. Data analysis was conducted using statistical software (SPSS V.26 - AMOS V.24).

The results supported the research hypotheses and confirmed the positive objectives and validity of the research model, revealing a direct impact of the independent variable (lean manufacturing) through its principles (both collectively and individually) on the dependent variable (green manufacturing) in terms of its requirements (collectively).

Based on these findings, several recommendations were made, the most important of which is that institutions should consider transitioning to a circular economy, where materials and waste are reused in the production process. This approach will help reduce environmental impacts and achieve greater resource sustainability.

Abstract

This study examines the preventive role of Legal Technology (LegalTech) in monitoring anti-competitive behaviors, with a particular focus on current challenges in Iraq. The problem arises from the limitations of traditional tools in detecting collusion and monopolistic practices, in contrast to the potential offered by LegalTech solutions such as artificial intelligence algorithms and digital reporting platforms. The research adopts a descriptive-analytical and comparative methodology, reviewing successful international experiences (the European Union, Singapore, and the United Kingdom), alongside an Iraqi case study in a key sector. The underlying hypothesis suggests that while LegalTech provides promising opportunities for regulatory oversight, its effectiveness in Iraq depends largely on the development of digital and legislative infrastructures. Preliminary findings indicate that LegalTech can play the role of an "early warning mechanism" against anti-competitive practices. However, Iraq faces structural and legislative challenges that require urgent addressing.

Accordingly, the research seeks to provide a cognitive and policy contribution that deepens understanding of the preventive role of LegalTech and supporting Iraqi decision-makers in addressing current challenges, thereby fostering a fairer and more competitive economic environment.
