The objective of this study was to showcase the influence of Business Intelligence (BI) tools, such as Online Analytical Processing (OLAP), Extract, Transform, Load (ETL) processes, Data Mining (DM), Relational Database Management Systems (RDBMS), and Document Management Systems (DMS), on maintaining the quality of financial reports in Jordanian commercial banks listed on the Amman Stock Exchange. Two approaches were employed to achieve the research objectives: a descriptive-analytical approach involving the development of a questionnaire to gather primary data on the independent variables associated with BI tools (OLAP, ETL, DM, RDBMS, DMS), and an applied approach to evaluate the dependent variable represented by the sustainability of financial report quality, utilizing the financial statements of commercial banks listed on the Amman Stock Exchange from (2016 to 2021). Data analysis and hypothesis testing were conducted using statistical software (SPSS) through multiple regression analysis. The results of the statistical data analysis and input from the research community indicated that the sustainability of financial report quality, as a valuable asset for banks, relies on the utilization of Business Intelligence tools. IT professionals in commercial banks perceive a statistically significant impact of BI tools on maintaining the quality of financial reports. Consequently, the management of commercial banks listed on the Amman Stock Exchange should prioritize the effective utilization of Business Intelligence tools, as their potential lies in aiding the accounting process to achieve its objectives, which ultimately contribute to the sustainability of financial reports. By employing these tools accurately and efficiently in accounting practices, all stages of the accounting process can be influenced, enabling the transformation of available data into information that benefits decision-makers both internally and externally within the banking environment.

The article aims at investigating whether audit quality impacts the relationship between ownership structure and dividends in companies listed on the Amman Stock Exchange (ASE). The article is constructed on the analysis of time-series–cross-section (TSCS) (Panel Data). The study sample comprises 34 companies listed on the Amman Stock Exchange between 2016 and 2021. The study sample’s content of the financial reports is analyzed to attain appropriate data for the study. The Findings indicate that family ownership and ownership of board members negatively impact dividends. In contrast, institutional ownership and concentrated ownership positively impact dividends, as no effect of foreign ownership is found on dividends. By introducing audit quality as a modified variable on the relationship between ownership structure and dividends, the findings demonstrate that audit quality positively enhances and strengthens this relationship. This article with its results is of great significance to future stockholders and shareholders, as they help in selecting companies capable of distributing higher dividends than other companies and achieving satisfactory investment returns. The findings of the study also focus on the significance of audit quality as a guarantor for regulating the relationship between forms of ownership structure and the distribution of dividends. This study is regarded among the little research investigating the factors that would impact the relationship between ownership structure and dividends. This article plays a key role in bridging the research gap related to the lack of studies dealing with the relationship between ownership structure and dividends in emerging markets.

The consequences of reverse factoring in a supply chain are examined in this article. Reverse factoring occurs when a buying firm offers a reduced short-term borrowing rate to a supplier company in exchange for longer payment terms. From the standpoint of a supplier, this paper investigates the impact of rating changes, interest rate fluctuations, and business cycle position on the cost-benefit trade-off in the SMEs and manufacturing companies. However, the data was collected using a questionnaire. The main result is that changes in critical financial variables like ratings, news alerts and interest rates will shift former win–win circumstances for the supplier dependent on the business cycle into win–lose situations for the supplier. Overall, the reverse factoring results reveal sophisticated trade-offs, necessitating careful consideration in managerial decisions.

The aim of this study was to investigate and identify the influence of performance expectation, effort expectation, and perceived usefulness on the usage of electronic banking services by Jordanian bank customers. The study used a quantitative method, with questionnaires administered to Jordanian bank clients. The statistics support the association between performance expectation, effort expectation, perceived utility, and the usage of electronic banking services. This implies that these characteristics have a major influence on Jordanian bank customers' electronic banking services. The association between performance expectation and use of electronic banking services is the strongest, followed by effort expectation and use of electronic banking services, and the poorest between perceived usefulness and use of electronic banking services. Even the most tenuous association (perceived usefulness and use of electronic banking services) is statistically significant. These findings also imply that banks seeking to boost the usage of electronic banking services should concentrate on improving consumers' perceptions of performance and effort expectations, as well as perceived usefulness.
