  • This study aims to examine the role of crisis management in managing and handling the financial crises (ISIS war crisis and COVID-19 pandemic crisis) on investment development. As well as the study examined the influence of the crises on investment development. An analytical and comparative study in the Kurdistan Region-Iraq. This study tries to determine the role of crisis management depending on the Mitroff’s-five stages model, depending on the regulation and decisions made during the occurrence of the crises. As well as the study compared the government’s reaction at each stage in both crises’ eras. In addition, the study tries to analyze and explore the reality of the investment situation during the occurrence of crises in the region, also comparing the crises' influence on each investment sector. A conceptual study theme was designed, and a set of hypotheses was developed. To verify the validity of the hypotheses. for that purpose, the financial analysis and SPSS version 28.0 was used. The study implemented the hypothesis on twelve investment sectors such as (trading, health, industry, service, tourism, transportation, education, agriculture, housing, sport, bank, and art) for ten years from 2012 until 2022.

    The study reached a set of conclusions, the most important of which are the KRG has more effective and better crisis management to handle and manage the COVID-19 pandemic crisis than the ISIS war crisis on investment projects depending on the scientific criteria. Thus, the damage caused by financial crises on projects can be reduced. And the government can react quickly by applying scientific crisis management principles to minimize the bad effects of the crisis. On another hand, the crises themselves there were different from each other. ISIS is a war crisis and external threat, and the projects in the region had a bad drop. The focus of the KRG is on border protection, internal security, and war armies. Thus, the ISIS war crisis has a great negative influence on investment projects. capital in dollars dropped from the appearance of ISIS in the crisis stage by (65.20%). As well as the number of projects dropped from (108) to (70) projects. However, the COVID-19 crisis was a global epidemic spread all over the world but for the region it was an internal threat. Causing the delay or stoppage of the projects temporarily rather than that fall projects. Thus, The COVID-19 pandemic has a limited influence on investment projects. Thus, capital in dollars decreased slightly from the appearance of COVID-19 in the crisis stage by (18.76%). However, the number of projects increased slightly from (66) to (76) projects.

    The researcher suggested that manage the crisis according to scientific criteria. And Implementing (Early warning system) to inform the projects of the occurrence of any unwanted events. And Installation of a response team (crisis management team) to prepare an organization to respond to potential crises.And attempting to rely on local products, and raw materials and strengthen local employees. Also, Diversify and develop investment sectors to avoid financial deficits during crises. Also, set a (strategic investment map) as a tool for investors to invest in that sector which is the most useful for the KR-I.
