Abstract

In light of the increased requirements for transparency and disclosure of all information related to financial and non-financial performance, especially in financial institutions, and based on the importance of financial inclusion in Egyptian banks and the disclosure of its indicators and how to implement it, the current research aims to study the role of disclosure of financial inclusion indicators on the financial performance of Egyptian banks. We study on Egyptian commercial banks, and the research reached several results, the most important of which is that financial inclusion is one of the basic pillars for achieving financial stability by supporting the stability of the deposit base and improving the flexibility of financing and investment in the banking sector, which leads to the ability of the financial system to withstand economic shocks, as the researcher recommended. Several points, including the following: the need to pay attention to the basic elements necessary to increase the quality of financial reports in the commercial banks under study, and the necessity of working to pay attention to the nature of the strong relationship that links indicators of the application of financial inclusion and the quality of financial reports, as well as the necessity of benefiting from the positive impact of indicators of the application of financial inclusion on the quality of financial reports.

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

Quarterly data were used, with (48) views, and a research problem was posed: Are the expected digital contributions to raising levels of financial inclusion addressed through the quality of digital financial services provided to a sample of the Arab countries under study for the period 2011-2022? The aim of study to shed light on the most important concepts, basics and emergence of financial digitization and financial inclusion, specifically the quality dimension and the extent to which it is affected by some indicators of financial digitization and attempt to disentangle some of the closely related concepts, as well as building a quantitative model capable of clarifying the size, impact and analysis of some indicators of financial digitization represented in (the procedure Or receiving digital payments for those in secondary education +15MPS, making or receiving digital payments for those in primary education or less (MRE), creating digital payments for adults over 25 years of age (MRA), creating digital payments for youth between 15-24 years of age (MRB), in the dependent variable represented by: , Quality/Education, represented by borrowing for health purposes (BHP), and Quality/Age, represented by the number of inactive accounts +15 NIA) by explaining its impact on the financial inclusion dimension (quality(

The ARDL model using the statistical program (Eviews 10) showed that there is a and (significant relationship) between the indicators of financial digitization and financial inclusion, represented by the quality dimension and the models that were tested and based on the global financial inclusion database The Global Findex Database 2021. study reached a set of Conclusions and proposals: Perhaps the most important of them is that the results of the short-term tests were consistent with the long-term results for the two variables with the same interpretation. The compatibility may also be due to financial theory and that those who are younger within this classification have new trends and care by parents for financial awareness and financial knowledge.

Abstract

This study highlights the vital role played by electronic banking in enhancing financial inclusion in Iraq, considering the challenges facing the financial sector—particularly the limited integration of large segments of the population into the formal banking system. The study is based on a problem concerning the limited role of electronic banking in expanding financial inclusion and seeks to evaluate its actual contribution in this field.

The study aims to diagnose the current state of electronic banking in Iraqi banks, determine the extent of the spread and usage of the services provided among the public, and measure the impact of these services on financial inclusion indicators—such as increasing the number of bank accounts and facilitating access to credit and other financial services. It also reviews the challenges hindering the spread of electronic banking, whether related to infrastructure, the regulatory framework, or the lack of awareness and trust among users.

The study adopts a descriptive-analytical approach, relying on official data issued by the central bank and commercial banks, in addition to an inductive approach that traces the relationship between the development of electronic banking and financial inclusion indicators. Despite the persistence of some geographical and social gaps, the study recommends the need to develop digital infrastructure, enhance financial literacy, and update regulatory frameworks to keep pace with the digital transformation of banking in Iraq.

Abstract

Given the important role played by financial inclusion in supporting economic development and reducing poverty, the study analyzed and interpreted the mechanisms of influence through which financial inclusion indicators can influence poverty. The study aimed to frame the theoretical foundations for studying the impact, as well as to build a quantitative model that has the ability to diagnose the nature of that impact, its direction and size, and to explain the mechanism and channels of its transmission, by relying on balanced double data (Balanced Panel Data), which had 40 observations, and through a model. Fixed Effect Model for a sample of developing countries and for the years (2005-2010-2015-2020).

The research seeks to get acquainted with the theoretical frameworks and empirical studies taken from the analysis and interpretation of the mechanism and channels of transmission of the impact that financial inclusion can exert on poverty, as well as the exploration of an objective quantitative model that has the ability to diagnose the nature, direction and size of that impact and to interpret the mechanism and channels of its transmission, based on data Balanced Panel Data through the fixed effect model (FEM) for a sample of developing countries for the years (2005-2010-2015-2020). The estimation results revealed that the indicator variable of the number of commercial bank branches per 100,000 adults (CBBA) had a positive effect, while the indicator of automatic teller machines per 100,000 adults (ATMAD) reflected its negative effect on the poverty index (P).

Abstract

Financial inclusion, defined as the process of ensuring access to appropriate financial services for all individuals and businesses, plays a crucial role in driving economic development and reducing poverty. In this context, universal banks—also known as full-service or universal banks—have emerged as key players in promoting financial inclusion by offering a wide range of financial services under one roof. These institutions provide individuals and businesses with access to savings, credit, insurance, investments, and payment services, which are essential for participating in modern economic activities.

Abstract

Purpose of the Study: This research addresses a relatively new field; its primary objective is to determine whether the use of strategic momentum in productive organizations leads to the enhancement of organizational brilliance. Furthermore, the study aims to focus on modern strategic management approaches—including strategic momentum—and clarify their pivotal role in creating a comprehensive and integrated environment that fosters growth and differentiation, thereby advancing the industrial sector through the introduction of the concept of organizational brilliance.

Methodology: A sample was selected from employees at the Men’s Garments Factory in Al-Najaf Al-Ashraf. A questionnaire consisting of 22 questions was distributed to employees, including unit and division managers, department heads, accountants, and production staff. A total of 93 completed forms were collected.

Key Findings: The study results revealed a significant and meaningful impact of strategic momentum on organizational brilliance. According to the findings, the path coefficient of the explanatory variable (strategic momentum) showed strong influence on the responsive variable (organizational brilliance), indicating that strategic momentum plays a powerful role in organizing and enhancing employee brilliance within the industrial sector (the factory under study).

Applications of the Study: Strategic momentum can play a critical role in enhancing industrial performance by creating a comprehensive and integrated environment that promotes leadership brilliance, service excellence, innovation, knowledge, efficiency, and financial inclusion. This contributes to elevating the status of the factory under study. Productive factories that adopt strategic momentum can remain at the forefront of the curve, deliver superior services to their customers, maintain market share, and contribute to the sustainable and inclusive development of the national economy.
