Abstract

The banking sector occupies a central position in the economy. This consideration stems from the roles and the responsibilities assumed by this institution. Therefore, the consolidation of the system comprising the banking and other financial institutions by all kinds of technology and information becomes more than a necessity in an attempt to improve the quality of the services provided in one hand and to strengthen the banking organization per se at the other. The latter objective is ensured by different mechanisms. One of these is the auditing mechanism. The paper sheds light on the impact of the information technology audit in increasing the quality of the bank accounting system. The study shows that the acquisition of the modern technology is not based only on feasibility, but in response to the requirement of the competition and the customers' satisfaction.
