Empirical research suggests that several variables affect cash holdings. The main goal of this conceptual paper is to investigate the influence of corporate liquidity and networking capital on the cash holdings of Iraqi Islamic banks. An organized analysis of the previous literature led to the development of the conceptual framework. The current work determined the significant effect of the factors studied on cash holdings. Moreover, this research gave some insight into the influence of corporate liquidity and networking capital on the cash holdings in Iraqi Islamic banks. This study emphasizes the significance of the addition to the literature on the aspects affecting cash holdings. The results might be helpful to financial management consultants, investors, and managers. The conceptual framework was supported by trade of theory. Furthermore, discussed are some consequences of this conceptual paradigm for theory and practice.
