Abstract

This research addresses the extent of digital transformation in the Iraqi banking sector, with a focus on a selected sample of Iraqi private banks. The research addresses the extent to which these banks adopt digital technologies to enhance their operations and customer services through quantitative analysis.

Pages: 144-156

PDF Full Text
Abstract

This research aims to explore the role of accounting in improving the financial performance of both public and private institutions, focusing on how modern accounting tools such as Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems and cloud-based accounting software can enhance financial efficiency and increase transparency. The study adopts a descriptive-analytical approach, using surveys to collect data from accountants and financial managers within various institutions. Financial performance was assessed using key financial indicators such as Return on Investment (ROI), Return on Assets (ROA), liquidity ratios, and profitability ratios. Additionally, the research analyzes the economic and regulatory challenges institutions face in implementing modern accounting systems and the impact these challenges have on the accuracy of financial reporting. The findings indicate that the use of modern accounting systems significantly improves financial efficiency by accelerating the process of data collection and analysis, thus enabling more accurate strategic decision-making. The results also reveal that institutions face economic and regulatory challenges, such as changes in laws and regulations, which affect the effectiveness of accounting systems.

The research concludes that adopting modern accounting systems positively impacts financial performance but requires a flexible environment to adapt to economic and regulatory challenges.

The Impact of the Banking Liquidity Shock on Banking Performance: An Applied Study at Bank of Baghdad

Karrar Dinar, Suroor Mohammed, Basma Hussein

Pages: 268-259

PDF Full Text
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.
