A PhD dissertation at the University of Basra examines the impact of green banking on financial sustainability

A PhD dissertation at the College of Administration and Economics in Basra explored the contribution of green banking to financial sustainability in specific countries, with a particular focus on Iraq. It examined the relationship between green banking and financial sustainability indicators by measuring its contribution to debt control, domestic resources, reserves, and exports, while also presenting scenarios for addressing emissions.

The dissertation, submitted by student Ahmed Da'ir Abdul Rahman, included a comprehensive study of three countries (the United States, the United Kingdom, and Sweden) compared to Iraq, demonstrating the theoretical framework of green banking and its statistical analysis (2013–2035).

The dissertation suggests that green finance significantly impacts the enhancement of financial sustainability and the reduction of external debt, exports, and reserves. It further suggests that its potential impact on Iraq could support its financial sustainability and reduce emissions.
