Employing a quantitative approach, the study utilized regression equations and econometric models to assess the effects of budget support grants, development project grants, and total revenues on Palestinian economic growth, using the E-views (V12) software.<br>The findings revealed a positive relationship between budget support grants and total revenues with economic growth, while an inverse relationship was observed between development project grants and economic growth. Furthermore, budget support grants and total revenues exhibited a statistically significant positive impact on economic growth, whereas development project grants showed no significant effect. Based on these results, the study recommends establishing a framework to evaluate the performance of grant-funded projects, emphasizing economic impact indicators such as job creation and GDP growth. It also advocates for enhanced transparency and accountability in project management. In the long term, reducing reliance on grants through strategies like improving tax collection is essential to bolster economic independence and shield growth from external funding volatility</p> بدر حمدان ##submission.copyrightStatement## 2025-12-31 2025-12-31 12 2 47 66 The rôle of entrepreneurs in promoting agricultural tourism: prospects and challenges https://journals.univ-ouargla.dz/index.php/ARED/article/view/3462 <p>This study aims to explore the integration between the tourism and agriculture sectors from the perspective of entrepreneurs, focusing on the available opportunities and existing challenges within the context of contemporary economic and social transformations.

Using an empirical, case study approach, the research analyzes internal transaction data across four major electronic payment channels—Baridimob, Edahabia, Carte Interbancaire (CIB), and Wimpay—to identify trends, user preferences, and institutional impacts on financial performance. The study contextualizes Algérie Télécom’s experience within the broader evolution of electronic payment systems both globally and domestically, emphasizing technological, behavioral, and regulatory dimensions. Findings indicate that the adoption of e-payment significantly increased during the post-pandemic period, driven by government initiatives and consumer familiarity with digital solutions. Among the observed methods, Baridimob and Edahabia emerged as the dominant channels in both transaction volume and monetary value, confirming the predominance of postal over banking systems in Algeria’s digital financial ecosystem. The research highlights that while digital transformation has advanced rapidly, persistent barriers remain—including infrastructural constraints, cybersecurity concerns, and cultural resistance to cashless transactions. Recommendations are proposed for policymakers, financial institutions, and telecom operators to strengthen e-payment infrastructure and enhance consumer trust</p> Widad CHABANI Zakariya CHABANI ##submission.copyrightStatement## 2025-12-31 2025-12-31 12 2 103 112 Investigating the relationship between students’ academic performance and university transportation service quality: Case study of the university of Kasdi Merbah, Ouargla https://journals.univ-ouargla.dz/index.php/ARED/article/view/3451 <p>This study examines the impact of university transportation service quality on students’ academic performance at Kasdi Merbah University, Ouargla, using the SERVQUAL model. Surveying 280 students, the research finds overall dissatisfaction across all service quality dimensions, with the lowest ratings in seating sufficiency, climate control, schedule adherence, complaint handling, safety equipment, and communication of delays. Regression analysis reveals a moderate correlation (R = 0.453) between perceived service quality and academic performance, with quality dimensions explaining about 20.6% of the variance in academic outcomes. Responsiveness and assurance (safety) are identified as the most significant predictors of academic performance. The findings underscore the need for comprehensive improvements in university transportation, particularly in responsiveness, safety, and tangible resources, to enhance both student satisfaction and academic achievement.</p> Houssem MOUFFOUK ##submission.copyrightStatement## 2025-12-31 2025-12-31 12 2 113 122 Requirements for Economic Convergence of the Gulf Cooperation Council Monetary Union (A Econometric Study for the Period 2005-2022) https://journals.univ-ouargla.dz/index.php/ARED/article/view/3452 <p>The paper examined the economic convergence of the Gulf Co-operation Council rates in preparation for monetary union. It discussed the economic feasibility of integration of financial institutions when they operate under the umbrella of conglomerate group of international markets.. The study aimed at developing a model explaining the requirements and the foundations of integration between financial institutions to help lay the foundations for times to achieve integration. Descriptive and standard analysis (using E- views) methods were used in the analysis of data. Findings indicated that the lack of some monetary and fiscal policies currently in place in the GCC countries makes it difficult to conduct analytical studies and provide the necessary economic and monetary indicators for the establishment of a monetary union on a solid foundation, where the only obstacle relates to the national sovereignty. Recommendations included the GCC need to speed up the implementation of the Board of Governors recommendations on criteria of economic performance convergence, to establish a central bank for monetary union, to give priority to economic interests rather than to political differences and to call for the formulation of an integrated Arab vision to protect the rights of Arabs and their money from international financial crisis. The researcher recommends following the standard studies in such researches to predict the values of explanatory variables in the long run in order to reach a mechanism to serve the Arab countries in terms of integration</p> Dalal OMER Somia AHMED ##submission.copyrightStatement## 2025-12-31 2025-12-31 12 2 123 136 Challenges and prospects of applying fair value accounting in the Algerian banking sector https://journals.univ-ouargla.dz/index.php/ARED/article/view/3453 <p>This study examines the integration of fair value as an accounting measurement basis within the Algerian financial system, particularly in the banking sector.
