Abstract
This research aims to diagnose the impact of the quality of bank assets from loans and credit loans on cash flows generated from operating activities by studying a sample of commercial banks listed on the Iraq Stock Exchange for a period of 10 years from 2010 to 2019. The research used the descriptive analytical approach based on the SPSS statistical program by measuring the strength of the correlation between the study variables by simple linear regression and continuity of chains. The problem of the research was whether cash flows through operating activities are affected by the quality of bank assets? The research found that there is a positive moral impact between the quality of assets and cash flows. The quality of assets is a good indicator of the predictability of future cash flows as a result of the direct relationship and the positive impact between them. This encourages banks to focus on achieving the quality of assets with the aim of obtaining cash flows from their operating activities. The research recommends the need to reduce the proportion of non-performing loans through credit undertakings and by managing the potential risks of bank loans and other assets while at the same time adopting sustainability policies that achieve high profitability ratios and thus high cash flows.
Abstract
The aim of the research is to analyze and measure the effect resulting from the internal factors represented by (cash liquidity, debt ratio, capital adequacy, credit facilities to assets, bank size, quality of banking service) affecting the profitability of Iraqi commercial banks represented by the rate of return on assets (ROA) and the rate of return on assets (ROA) and the rate of return on assets. Return on Equity (ROE), and to achieve the goal of the research, a model was built to measure the impact of independent variables on the dependent variable based on the program ( Amos Statistical Analysis Twenty-Fourth Edition ) starting from the application of the multiple linear regression analysis method on a sample of two banks during the period from (2010 -2019), and the research reached a set of results, the most important of which is (there is a significant and statistically significant effect of the internal factors in the profitability indicators (ROA, ROE), and the research showed that the internal factors that most influence the profitability of commercial banks in the study sample differed from one bank to another. It was recommended to strengthen the interest in the capital adequacy ratio, the indebtedness ratio and cash liquidity because of their significant impact on the profitability of commercial banks, the research sample
Abstract
Th The research paper aims to test the extent of the impact of bonuses granted to board members on the profitability of companies measured by the rate of return on assets and the rate of return on equity. A sample of companies listed on the Gulf Stock Exchange, including the Iraq Stock Exchange, was used for the period (2015-2022). The descriptive and analytical approach was used for the data and information contained in the reports and statements of the companies in the research paper sample. Ready-made software, including Excel 2010 and STATA, was also used to test the research hypotheses, answer the research paper’s problem questions, and reach the objectives. The research hypotheses were tested through the use of the approved multiple regression model (panel data). The research paper concluded the importance of bonuses granted to employees at various administrative levels. There is also a group of mechanisms that enhance the profitability of companies. On the analytical side, it was found that there is a statistically significant correlation between bonuses granted to board members and the rate of return on assets. The same is true for the relationship between board members’ bonuses and the rate of return on equity. It was also a positive and significant correlation. Significant, but not strong. It also appears that board bonuses have a negative impact on the return on assets, and that board bonuses (RV) have an insignificant negative impact on the profitability variable, represented by return on equity (DV12).
Abstract
The research aimed to identify how to build models for selecting the optimal mix of investment portfolios, as well as presenting the stock returns of fifty-four companies listed on the Iraq Stock Exchange to facilitate investors' choice of the best investment alternatives by comparing stock returns with the financial market returns. Using monthly data spanning the period from March 2020 to May 2024, the research examined fifty-four companies listed on the Iraq Stock Exchange, covering all traded sectors. The research also demonstrated the importance of beta analysis (β) in classifying stocks into defensive and offensive, which helps investors build balanced financial portfolios that manage risks more effectively. The research reached several conclusions, the most important of which is that the pricing of capital assets depends on two important factors: the risk premium and the beta value. Consequently, any increase in either of these factors will be directly reflected in the prices of corporate assets.
Abstract
The research aims to explain the measurement and accounting disclosure of lease contracts in accordance with the IFRS 16 standard and its impact on the informational content of the financial statements. To achieve the research objective, the researcher applied the IFRS 16 standard in Gulf Bank because it did not apply the IFRS 16 standard during the period of application of the standard in 2019, and the researcher prepared The financial statements were prepared in accordance with the requirements of the standard before and after application, and in a retrospective manner, according to what the standard allowed, with other variables held constant. The researcher provided a detailed analysis of the impact of applying IFRS 16 on the informational content of the financial statements by comparing the results before and after application, as well as the impact of that application on Financial ratios.
The researcher reached a set of conclusions, the most important of which are the following:
- The application of the IFRS 16 standard leads to the recognition of the right to use the asset among non-current assets, which leads to an increase in assets with a decrease in prepaid expenses, as a result of the amendments in order to apply the standard represented by reversing the prepaid expenses before application. In addition, recognizing lease obligations as non-current liabilities leads to an increase in total liabilities.
The application of IFRS 16 affects the informational content of the statement of changes in equity, especially when applied using the modified retrospective method, as a decrease in retained earnings resulting from an increase in the volume of expenses due to an increase in debit interest expenses and depreciation expenses leads, therefore, to a decrease in retained earnings.
The research concluded with a number of recommendations, the most important of which are:
- The need for lease contracts to be clearer by stating the important paragraphs that have an impact on the process of accounting treatments related to the application of IFRS 16, which are (duration, payments, purchase option, the extent of the lessee’s control over the asset subject to the lease, and so on).
- The necessity of qualifying staff working in accounting departments in the banking sector, given that it is obligated to apply international standards and other sectors through training on conducting accounting treatments for lease contracts in accordance with the IFRS16 standard, as treatments that are radically different from what used to be the treatment of lease contracts according to local accounting systems.

Accordingly, about 43% of the change was reached, The outcome of the firm's market value is explained through the variables of the current study, which prompts financial managers to increase interest in how to form suitable sources of financing in a way that reflects positively on the firm's value in the market.
Abstract
The statement of cash flows carries great importance for the users of the financial statements and facilitates the process of understanding and analyzing them because it provides financial information that is free from misleading and is modern as one of the main requirements of the establishments and provides useful information about the establishment’s operational, investment and financing activities. It exposes commercial banks to financial crises and risks. Cash, cash liquidity risks, and it has to draw the responsibilities of the monetary authority and establish an effective central unit through a strategic system and rely on ratios and indicators of cash liquidity because the low level of cash liquidity can expose banks to a financial crisis and financial risks that make them lose the element of safety, profitability and cash liquidity even if they achieve earnings And commercial banks must maintain cash liquidity by preserving cash assets and assets, and the research also found the results of the other bank with very high ratios that outweigh other ratios, such as the cash balance ratio and legal reserve, and the need to pay attention to the surplus and shortage of liquidity that you may be exposed to. Commercial banks during the exercise of their business, and the research also arrived, and the bank has the ability to provide various services and pay the obligations due with its liabilities, as it was found that the higher the rate of employment and loans compared to other banks, it turns out that the bank is able to offer new loans and grant advances and other facilities. Financial statements, including the balance sheet and the statement of cash flows, for the purpose of developing and drawing up plans for the future In order for the bank not to resort to borrowing on commercial banks, a sound policy drawing to avoid exposing the bank to banking and credit risks and cash liquidity risks and formulating an effective and sound strategy for the purpose of managing the securities and loan portfolio.
Abstract
Banks are exposed to many financial risks that arise when the bank faces difficulty in recovering loans from borrowers, which may affect the bank's assets and its ability to meet its obligations. There are also market risks related to fluctuations in interest rates, stock prices, and exchange rates, which negatively impact the value of assets. In addition, there are liquidity risks related to the bank's inability to meet liquidity needs suddenly, such as the withdrawal of deposits or financing loans, which creates challenges in achieving a balance between profitability and liquidity. Non-financial risks to which banks are exposed include operational risks resulting from the failure of internal systems or procedures, and legal risks arising from failure to comply with laws and regulations, which may lead to fines or legal cases. There are also strategic risks resulting from making incorrect decisions that affect the bank's future, in addition to reputational risks related to damage to the bank's image as a result of customer complaints or financial crises. To manage these risks, banks implement multiple strategies such as hedging, diversifying investments, and ensuring the implementation of regulatory requirements. Risk management helps improve the bank's stability and enhance its ability to make sound financial decisions, enabling it to reduce losses. Potential, capital preservation, and long-term sustainability are guaranteed, which increases the level of trust between clients and investors.

Abstract
The research aims to address a fundamental issue related to the impact of Islamic finance on economic development. Islamic finance has witnessed a significant increase in the volume of its financial transactions, especially after the global crisis of 2008, making it a key source for financing various economic activities and driving growth in many countries. Islamic banks were selected as the focus of the study because they represent the core component of the Islamic financial industry in Iraq.
The research adopts the inductive approach by focusing on the development of the Islamic banking sector in Iraq, its various patterns, and its impact on economic development. The development of the Islamic banking sector is expressed through a set of indicators (total assets and financing volume), while economic development is measured through the non-oil GDP indicator. The data cover the period (2013–2022).
The study concludes that there is a statistically significant positive effect of credit volume on economic development, while no impact of total assets in Islamic banks on economic development was found. The researcher recommends the need to develop the operational mechanisms of Islamic banks in a manner that ensures strengthening their positive impact on economic development.
Abstract
This study aims to examine the nature of the relationship between deposit structure and financial recovery in commercial banks. The sample consisted of ten Iraqi commercial banks during the period 2014–2023, and the Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) method was applied to analyze the relationship and effects among the study variables. The findings reveal that the deposit structure has a significant impact on several financial recovery indicators, namely return on equity (ROE), return on assets (ROA), capital adequacy ratio (CAR), and non-performing loans (NPL). The results further indicate that both savings deposits and time deposits exerted a negative effect on ROA, reflecting the limited ability of Iraqi banks to allocate depositors’ funds efficiently and generate adequate returns. Conversely, time deposits showed a clear positive impact on ROE. In addition, all types of deposits were found to have a positive and significant effect on both NPL and CAR, suggesting that growth in deposits increases lending activities and profitability, while also being associated with higher levels of non-performing loans. The significance of this study stems from the fact that deposits represent the primary source of funding for commercial banks and account for the largest share of their resources. However, the distribution of deposits by type and maturity does not necessarily guarantee financial recovery, particularly in light of the financial, health, economic, political, and technological crises that have adversely affected the Iraqi banking sector. Accordingly, the central research question is posed: To what extent does the deposit structure contribute to strengthening the ability of Iraqi commercial banks to achieve financial recovery? The study concludes that bank managements should improve the quality of banking services and adopt both pricing and non-pricing strategies to attract more stable deposits, while directing them toward high-quality assets and investments that can enhance financial performance.
Abstract
Information from financial reports is the basis upon which users of financial information make various decisions accounting measurement based on historical cost is objective and reliable but not appropriate, as it reflects past events and does not provide future information, hence the global trend of replacing historical cost with fair value, since the information generated is relevant and reflects the unit's true financial position. The research therefore sought to illustrate the impact of fair value adoption on the quality of financial reporting. The importance of research stems from the importance of quality financial reporting because of its significant influence on decision makers.Given the international trend to replace the historical cost basis with fair value accounting measurement, it was important to examine the ability of fair value financial reporting to provide users of financial reporting with financial information and indicators that are appropriate and useful for good economic decision-making and also to identify underlying causes Behind the trend of preparers of International Accounting Standards (IAS) and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) to use fair value in accounting measurement. To test the validity of the research hypothesis, the impact of using fair value on the quality of financial reporting was measured by measuring the adequacy of financial reporting at Baghdad commercial bank . The researchers came to several conclusions, the main one being that there is an impact of using fair value on bank activities after its application. They recommended that efforts be made to apply fair value across a wider range of financial assets to include all their assets and liabilities properly according to the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), as the impact may become clearer.
Abstract
The United Arab Emirates has established a distinguished economic and social model characterized by its ability to keep pace with rapid technological and digital transformations, as well as its continuous expansion in investment and development activities. Despite this progress, the UAE remains vulnerable to fluctuations resulting from global economic crises, including the COVID-19 pandemic, which had a substantial impact on financial markets, liquidity levels, and capital mobility.
This study examines the structural characteristics of the UAE economy and its development policies through key macroeconomic indicators, namely gross domestic product (GDP), the inflation rate, and the public debt ratio. It then analyzes the impact of the COVID-19 crisis on the UAE banking system by focusing on Emirates NBD Bank and First Abu Dhabi Bank, based on selected financial indicators, including net profit, return on assets (ROA), and return on equity (ROE).
Among the most important conclusions reached by the study is that the COVID-19 crisis revealed the resilience and efficiency of the UAE banking sector in dealing with the pandemic and achieving an early recovery. This resilience contributed to financial stability and superior profitability for both banks. However, the pace and nature of recovery differed between the two institutions. Emirates NBD Bank achieved the highest levels of profitability and return on assets, while First Abu Dhabi Bank maintained steady growth, reflecting the adoption of a long-term risk management strategy. This diversity in banks’ policies contributes to the creation of a balanced banking system capable of effectively coping with crisis.
As for the key recommendations, the study emphasizes the need to strengthen the role of the banking sector in raising public awareness, as well as monitoring the damages suffered by customers in the aftermath of crises, giving due consideration to their interests, and ensuring the protection of their rights through a comprehensive set of regulatory and supportive measures.
Abstract
The banking crisis occurs in the banking system when cash withdrawals from all types of bank accounts by bank customers suddenly rise, that is, when the bank’s or financial institution’s liabilities are greater than financial assets and then its inability to cover the liabilities, then the cash and its equivalents are not guaranteed. The quality of the loan portfolio and the increase in bad loans from it have an impact on the financial position, and for this reason and in the aftermath of the recent financial crisis (2008), the International Accounting Standards Board, in cooperation with international organizations, issued the International Financial Reporting Standard (9) to recalculate the expected credit losses of financial instruments according to scientific grounds To avoid defaulting in debt repayment, the research focused on the challenges facing commercial and Islamic banks in Iraq in implementing the guiding regulations issued by the Central Bank of Iraq, which mandated the application of the standard as of 2019 in light of the capabilities available in those banks.
With the aim of the research to shed light on the requirements of the standard IFRS-9) and procedures for banks in the application of the standard and the role of the Central Bank of Iraq in monitoring banks to ensure that those requirements are met. The research reached several conclusions, the most important of which is that the timing of the application of the standard is not appropriate due to the circumstances that Iraq is going through, and many commercial activities have stopped due to the outbreak of the Corona virus with the decline in oil prices. 2019 until a later time until the appropriate environment for the application is available

Abstract
Given the great importance of financial stocks and their significant role as one of the financial assets used in building the optimal investment portfolio, they are exposed to many risks, the most important of which is the decline in their market value. Therefore, our study addressed the reverse split method as a financial method used to raise the prices of financial stocks with low prices. A sample of Iraqi banks that suffer from A decrease in the level of share prices of (14) Iraqi banks for the period from 6/2014 to 6/2024, as the research aims to know the extent of the ability of the reverse segmentation method in building optimal investment portfolios when implementing the reverse segmentation, and two sides of the reverse segmentation were taken, which are the positive side represented by the rise in prices, as well as the negative side represented by the decrease Stock prices when implementing the reverse split, and the research aims to know the effect of this method on the returns and risks of stocks after its implementation, especially the returns and risks of portfolios that were built based on the cut rate as well as the performance of these portfolios, as it was found that the effect of the reverse split of stocks was found whether at a rise in the price level or at a fall in stock prices after its implementation, and that the returns The risk levels increased more when prices rose after the reverse split than when prices fell. The research results also showed that the optimal portfolio’s return when prices rose after the reverse split was higher than the portfolio’s return after the price decline. However, the risk of the optimal investment portfolio when prices fell after the reverse split was higher, the risk of the investment portfolio is higher when prices rise after implementation. The reverse split did not play any role in improving the performance of the investment portfolio whether prices rose or fell. Therefore, investment portfolio managers who seek to achieve high levels of returns regardless of the level of risk associated with those returns should buy shares of banks that implemented the split decision. Reverse, and this requires the management of the Iraq Stock Exchange to include the reverse split within the procedures in effect in the Iraq Stock Exchange.
Abstract
The current study examines the impact of income diversification on the profitability and stability of Jordanian commercial banks. The study sample consisted of (13) commercial banks operating in Jordan for the period 2010-2022. The secondary data included in the financial reports and annual budgets issued by the Jordanian commercial banks are also considered. The study employs the ratio of non-interest income to total operating income and the Hirschman-Herfindahl index to measure income diversification, while the return on assets and return on equity indices were used to measure bank profitability. To measure financial stability, the z-score value was calculated. The Panel Data regression model was employed, and the random effect model was chosen to test the study hypotheses. The results showed that the ratio of non-interest income has a positive and significant impact on the profitability of Jordanian commercial banks. This indicates that increasing reliance on non-interest income sources enhances the performance and profitability of Jordanian commercial banks. The results also showed that the HHI index has a positive and significant effect on the profitability and stability of Jordanian commercial banks, which means that increasing the level of diversification in income sources leads to increased profitability and financial stability in Jordanian commercial banks. The study recommended the necessity of encouraging commercial banks to innovate financially and provide digital banking services and other non-traditional services due to their role in increasing profits and financial stability in Jordanian commercial banks.
Abstract
The current study aims to predict the failure of companies through the use of financial ratios derived from cash flow disclosure and then categorize them into two categories, the safe category means that the company is in a secure financial position capable of providing cash and fulfilling financial obligations, and the second category is the unsafe category where the company is In a troubled financial situation unable to meet the financial obligations, as (11) financial ratios derived from the cash flow statement were used, and the study was applied in the Iraq Stock Exchange, as the sample consisted of (42) companies listed in it and for the period 2016-2020. Through the use of logistic regression analysis to the prediction model that works to classify companies, with an accuracy rate of 52.4%, the model consists of (4) financial ratios, which are (the ratio of operational activity, the ratio of operating cash to sales, the ratio of operating cash return to total assets, and finally the percentage of cash return operating to total liabilities)
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 process of pricing bank loans is one of the most important sources for the bank’s
revenues, as loans represent a large part of the bank’s assets. The research aims to measure and
know the impact of bank loan pricing indicators on credit risk. When the bank sets a high interest
rate, this leads to a loss of customers by going to other banks to obtain loans, and if a low interest
rate is set, this leads to a loss for the bank. Therefore, banks should use modern methods of
pricing bank loans. The research community represents the banks listed in the market. Iraq Stock
Exchange. As for the research sample, it consisted of 8 banks that were selected from among 24
banks listed on the Iraq Stock Exchange that meet the research requirements, and for the period
(2006-2015), and a set of financial indicators were used (return on net funds used, weighted
average cost of capital, Z-Score Profitability objective) Measurable research variables .

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.
Abstract
The research focuses on calculating the expected credit risks according to the IFRS9 9 standard and how to apply this standard in the National Bank of Iraq. IFRS9 9 is an accounting standard that deals with the classification, financial value of financial assets and the management of risks related to them. Modern accounting standards require considering the financial risks of loans and other financial products owned by the bank. The IFRS9 9 standard aims to supply a comprehensive credit risk management system and supply a probable estimate of expected losses on loans and other financial products. The process of calculating the expected credit risk by the IFRS9 9 standard includes several main steps. First, financial products should be classified according to the degree of expected risk. This classification is based on the quantitative and qualitative information relevant to the bank and the credit risk assessment for each category. After that, the expected credit size for each category is decided based on forecasting models and risk estimates. These models are based on a set of accounting, economic and business standards. Historical data and current information are used to decide the expected credit volume and the possible risks entailed by financial portfolios. According to accounting standards, banks must include the expected credit volume in periodic financial reports and constantly update it. This helps third parties, such as investors and regulators, to understand the bank's exposure to credit risks and the efficiency of the bank's risk management. This process is reflected in the volume of credit applied at the National Bank of Iraq by improving the bank's understanding of credit risks and thus the ability to make better decisions in granting loans and managing risks. The aim of this research is to study the calculation of expected credit risks following the IFRS9 9 standard and analyze their impact on the credit volume in its application at the National Bank of Iraq. The focus is on understanding the details of the standard and how to apply it to improve risk management and make better decisions in granting loans. Through this research, we have concluded that calculating the expected credit risks by IFRS9 contributes to enhancing the bank's understanding of credit risks and improving its efficiency in risk management, and the correct application of the standard helps in supplying more transparent and predictable financial reporting of potential losses. Based on the findings, there are some recommendations for improving risk management at the National Bank of Iraq and applying the IFRS9 standard. The bank should strengthen its technical capabilities to collect and analyze financial data and credit ratings in a more correct and effective manner, and the bank should supply continuous training to employees on the standard and methods of its implementation and the use of proper predictive models to calculate the expected credit risks. Finally, the bank should give financial reports in an organized and transparent manner, explaining the expected credit volume and the potential risks entailed by this volume. This will help investors and regulators understand the extent of the bank's exposure to credit risks and the efficiency of the bank's risk management.
