The profit quality was calculated for (10) private shareholding banks listed in the Iraq Stock Exchange for the period of time (2016-2020) using the regression analysis method. , relying on official data and information for each bank, and the most important conclusions reached by the research is that most of the sample banks, if not all of them, do not have quality profits because the marginal slope parameter of the equation for its estimation and calculation is negative values, and this indicates the lack of quality in profits, even if some values Positive, but it is close to zero, which indicates the quality of temporary profits that tend to disappear after applying the joint audit.
