<p>The study aimed to investigate the impact of using artificial intelligence (AI) technologies on the external auditing profession in Libya from the perspective of external auditors and academics in the eastern region. To achieve this objective, the study adopted a descriptive-analytical approach and relied on a questionnaire as the main data collection tool. The questionnaire was distributed to the study population, which consisted of external auditors accredited by the Central Bank of Libya and faculty members in accounting departments at universities located in the eastern region of Libya. Descriptive and inferential statistical methods were employed to analyze the data and derive conclusions. The study hypotheses were tested using the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test and the Kruskal-Wallis Test. The findings revealed a significant positive effect of utilizing various AI technologies (expert systems, neural networks, and machine learning techniques) on enhancing audit quality and the accuracy of financial reports. Based on these findings, the study recommends encouraging audit firms and practitioners to adopt AI technologies in their operations to minimize human errors and improve data analysis efficiency.</p>اسماعيل عيسى محمد حويليدعاء عثمان عبد الوكيل

<p>This study aims to identify the role of joint auditing in enhancing the qualitative characteristics of accounting information presented in the financial statements of Libyan commercial banks. The study addressed five main dimensions: relevance, reliability, comparability, verifiability, and consistency. The study adopted a descriptive-analytical methodology and collected data through a questionnaire distributed to a sample of 180 individuals, comprising financial managers, accountants, internal auditors in commercial banks, auditors from the Audit Bureau, and external auditors registered with the Central Bank of Libya. Appropriate statistical methods were used to analyze the data through the SPSS program. The study tested the main hypothesis: “Joint auditing plays a role in enhancing the qualitative characteristics of accounting information in the financial statements of Libyan commercial banks.” From this main hypothesis, five sub-hypotheses were derived. <br>The findings of the study indicate that joint auditing plays an effective role in improving all dimensions of the qualitative characteristics of accounting information in the financial statements of Libyan commercial banks. The study recommends adopting a joint audit system in Libyan banks due to its positive impact on enhancing the quality of accounting information. Furthermore, the study emphasized the importance of strengthening coordination between regulatory and accounting bodies in the country to establish a clear regulatory framework that governs the work of joint auditors and minimizes potential conflicts. It also called for incorporating the concept of joint auditing into academic curricula within accounting departments to raise early awareness among students about its importance.</p>خالد عبدالقادر العريبيمروة فرج الطيرة

<p>This study aimed to identify the impact of financial technology (Fintech) on the quality of banking services in Libyan commercial banks, as well as to assess the current state of Fintech implementation in these banks. The study population consisted of all Libyan commercial banks across both public and private sectors. Due to the large size of the population, a random sampling method was employed. The researcher adopted a quantitative approach to collect primary data from a sample of 250 respondents using a structured questionnaire, achieving a response rate of 84%. Descriptive statistics including means, standard deviations, and percentages were used to answer the study questions, while multiple regression analysis was applied to test the study hypotheses. The findings revealed a statistically significant impact of Fintech on the quality of banking services. However, the overall level of Fintech adoption in most commercial banks was generally weak, except for a relatively adequate infrastructure that was somewhat prepared to support Fintech applications. The study also indicated a lack of modern technologies such as ATMs and limited reliance on modern services like mobile and email banking. Moreover, customers’ sense of security and trust in banking services was found to be low. The study’s findings are expected to contribute to improving the quality of banking services and to provide valuable insights for banking and financial institutions regarding the importance of Fintech adoption.</p> محمد مفتاح الشيخ رحيلإيمان محمد الطرشي

The descriptive-analytical method was employed to achieve the objectives of the study. Data were collected through a structured questionnaire distributed to a sample consisting of managers, deputy managers, department heads, unit supervisors, auditors, and accountants working in commercial banks located in Sirte, Libya. A total of 62 questionnaires were distributed to the targeted sample. Several statistical techniques were utilized, including arithmetic means, standard deviations, relative weight, relative importance, and Cronbach’s Alpha to test the reliability of the data. Hypotheses were tested using stepwise multiple regression analysis. The study yielded several findings, the most significant of which is the existence of a statistically significant effect of the requirements of digital transformation—namely, human and technological requirements—on both innovation and competitive advantage in the sampled Libyan commercial banks.</p> أشرف سالم عبد الكافي عازة ذياب محمد عمر

<p>Human resource management (HRM) enables making sustainable organisational performance a reality for today›s dynamic business environment. HR practice alignment and organisational strategy have been among the biggest forces driving innovation, employee engagement, and competitive success. This article presents an overview of the history of HRM from administrative work to being an organisational strategy partner and its contribution to organisational performance. Based on extensive literature review and some recent theory such as Resource-Based View (RBV) and Human Capital Theory, in this study an analysis has been presented on how strategic HR practices such as talent management, performance management, employee development, and diversity management have influence on employee›s performance along with organisational performance. The study also addresses the role of leadership, organisational culture, technology such as artificial intelligence, in trying to conceptualise HR effectiveness. For organisational leaders and HR practitioners in best practice and trends in world-class companies, implications of the study are noted. The study reiterates the importance of strategic HRM and alignment of firm strategy in response to changing labour markets and generating long-term value. Research implications are developed to build strategic competencies of HR functions, and suggestions are given for future research..</p>Asaad Salim Farag Elomami
