Abstract

The world has recently witnessed the opening of global markets to the flow of capital, goods, and services with complete freedom. Countries are racing to join the World Trade Organization and the European Union to obtain economic gains. Developing countries have joined developed countries in entering those markets. This means that governments will change the methods of managing the national economy by reducing restrictions on exchanging capital, goods, and services. Here, our local organizations are exposed to intense competition from foreign organizations due to the lifting of the protection that the government had imposed in favour of local organizations, which will be reflected in their market share. The time has come for our national organizations to think about the necessity of rushing to global markets. This requires developing their working methods to achieve a competitive advantage that enables them to enter those markets, in addition to the necessity of remaining in our local markets due to the threat from foreign organizations, and the industry does not exist. Banking is more sensitive to this challenge than it is to these changes due to the nature of its activity in providing credit and other banking operations to complete international commercial transactions. Therefore, it will be exposed to economic risks, which are concerned with studying the impact of fluctuations in exchange rates on the current and future cash flows of the operations it carries out. Banks outside their national borders, which is reflected in the prices of their shares in the financial markets, negatively or positively, and thus on their market value.
