The Relationship between the Structure of Ownership and the Choice of Accounting Policies and their Reflection on the Market Value Considering International Financial Reporting Standards for Banks Listed on the Iraqi Stock Exchange
The study aimed to clarify the concept and importance of the relationship between the structure of ownership and the choice of accounting policies and their reflection on the market value in light of international financial reporting standards for banks listed in the Iraq Stock Exchange. Eleven banks were selected for the period from 2010 to 2019. The results of the study concluded that there is a direct relationship between the percentage of administrative ownership weighted by accounting conservatism and the market value of the research sample banks. This was before and after the application of the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), which indicates that the application of the standards did not limit the management's behavior towards the accounting conservatism policy in order to increase the market value.
