Measuring and analyzing the impact of international financing sources on the Iraqi balance of payments for the period (2004-2022)

Abstract

This study investigates the influence of international financing sources on the balance of payments of Iraq over the period spanning from 2004 to 2022. Through rigorous empirical analysis, various forms of international financing, such as foreign aid, loans, and investments, are scrutinized to discern their impact on Iraq's balance of payments dynamics. By employing statistical and econometric methods, the study aims to provide insights into the extent to which international financing has contributed to shaping Iraq's economic stability and external financial position during the specified timeframe. Understanding these relationships is crucial for policymakers and international financial institutions seeking to devise effective strategies for promoting sustainable economic development in Iraq.
