Abstract

Accounting digital transformation in today’s fast-digitizing banking environment is becoming an imperative force driving transparency and governance in the banking industry. This study explores the effect of accounting digital transformation on transparency in finance, with emphasis on the mediating effect of good governance in Jordan’s commercial banking. Based on survey data from 386 bank experts, the study utilizes Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) to analyze the relationships among organizational, technical, and human dimensions of digital transformation, governance, as well as financial transparency. The findings show that all three dimensions have positive impacts on transparency in finance, and good governance partially mediates these relationships. These insights provide policy makers and practising managers with actionable advice to enhance financial reporting through governance and digitization.
