Introduction:

In recent times, rapid economic and financial developments and changes have been witnessed; As a result of technological development and globalization that made the world a small village; Especially in developed countries, we find that they rely on AI in large areas, although Iraq lags far behind in the use of many technological and scientific aspects in recent years; As a result of the circumstances the country has gone through. But it is possible to overcome this backwardness by adopting plans and strategies for using artificial intelligence in all fields, to make Iraq smarter than it is, improve performance, increase domestic production, and work with new governments that build their plans on science and technology with the help of specialists and university professors (both local and foreign). In the face of these developments and changes, financial management must move from its traditional concepts and objectives as a function of local companies specialized in regulating the flow of funds, planning, coordinating, and controlling them, to international financial management based on modern concepts derived from the reality of international environmental conditions, developments, and changes.
