Financial stability is the fundamental pillar that ensures the soundness of the banking system and its ability to withstand economic shocks, while liquidity risk is among the most influential challenges to banks’ performance and sustainability, directly affecting their ability to meet obligations and maintain an adequate level of profitability. Hence, this research, titled “The Impact of Liquidity Risk on Financial Stability in a Sample of Iraqi Commercial Banks for the Period 2012–2023”, seeks to answer the central question: To what extent does the management of liquidity risk affect the level of financial stability of Iraqi commercial banks?

The research adopts a descriptive–analytical methodology, relying on actual data for a sample of five Iraqi commercial banks listed on the Iraq Stock Exchange: Iraqi Islamic Commercial Bank (IICB), Al-Mansour Investment Bank (MIB), National Islamic Bank (NIB), Bank of Baghdad (BoB), and Gulf Commercial Bank (GCB).
