This study seeks to answer several key questions regarding the impact of financial technology (FinTech) tools on selected Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in Iraq during the period 2023-2015. The research explores whether these tools have a significant impact, the strength of this impact (strong or weak), and whether the effect is positive or negative. The importance of the study lies in its analysis of digital financial technology and sustainable development concepts, as well as evaluating the extent to which FinTech tools contribute to achieving SDGs in Iraq during the specified period. The study is based on the hypothesis that there is a direct impact of digital financial technology tools on selected SDGs in Irag from 2015 to 2023. To test this hypothesis, the study employs both descriptive (theoretical) and quantitative methodologies, utilizing statistical analysis tools to examine the relationship between FinTech and sustainable development. The study concludes that there is no direct impact of FinTech tools on achieving selected SD&s in Iraq during the period 2023-2015. Based on this finding, the research provides several key recommendations. ALMUSTAQBAL UNIVERSITY – THE FIRST IN IRAQ
