The issue of economic development policies is of great interest to decision-makers in developed and developing countries alike, due to the prevailing belief that interest in this topic will improve the conditions of economic welfare and the standard of living of society.

In Iraq, despite the existence of macroeconomic policies, reform programs and transformation programs towards a market economy, they are not managed in a way that contributes to addressing structural problems, improving the efficiency of various economic sectors, enhancing the competitiveness of the public and private sector, and encouraging non-oil exports.
