The sustainable financial dimension of development, an approach to the significance of indictors in the Iraqi economy

Abstract

The concept of sustainability is concerned with the indicators that can be relied upon in estimating the sustainability of the economy at the macro level and what is related to it.  Financial sustainability, on the other hand , focuses on public debt and its potential positive effects if used efficiently in financing the resource gap, or negative if Limit yourself to financing current consumption.

As far as the matter is concerned with the Iraqi economy, the rentier nature of the economy has spared the economy from resorting to public debt for the purposes of covering the “gap of resources”, and resorting to it was limited in times of crisis, preserving ad hoc attitude, away from its supposed role in achieving sustainable development. The aim of this paper is to examine the economic implications of financial sustainability and its projection on the Iraqi situation, while the research problem was to investigate the economic significance of the indicators in terms of their qualitative difference in the rentier developing economy such as Iraq.   The paper reached conclusions in correspondence with its problem and hypothesis
