The Impact Of Financial Technology On The Banking Sector in Iraq (An opportunity Or A Threat?)

Abstract

Abstract:

This research talks about the financial technology that has recently begun to appear in the financial sector around the world, and which promises that it will either be the most important competitor to this sector, or the best available way for it to develop. This research talks about the impact of that technology on the Iraqi banking sector in terms of being an opportunity or a threat to it. The problem that this research addresses is: Is the adoption of financial technology, despite its risks, by the Iraqi banking sector will benefit it? Or will those risks be predominant in the end? It stems from the premise that financial technology is one of the most important opportunities available to the Iraqi banking sector. The research reached several conclusions, the most important of which is that financial technology is indeed an opportunity that is not a threat to the Iraqi banking sector (at least for now), but rather it is one of the most important opportunities available to it, so it must follow an offensive remedial strategy by the banking sector using its strengths that Including high levels of security and confidence, which creates the appropriate environment to exploit its opportunities
