This research examined the effect of accounting ethics on quality of financial reporting among listed commercial banks in Rwanda stock exchange. The objectives of the study were to investigate the effect of accounting integrity on the quality of financial reporting among listed commercial banks in Rwanda, to determine the effect of accounting objectivity on the quality of financial reporting among listed commercial banks in Rwanda and to examine the effect of accountants’ professional competence and due care on the quality of financial reporting among listed commercial banks in Rwanda stock exchange .Theories underpinning the study are business entity theory, going concern theory and agency theories. The study used correlation design with a quantitative approach. The sample size was 363 respondents who included accounting, finance and auditing staff, heads of departments and members of the boards of directors of the four selected commercial banks. However, only 203 (56% response rate) completed the survey. Stratified simple random and purposive sampling techniques were used to select this sample. Data was analyzed through descriptive analysis. Findings for the first hypothesis (H01) show that accounting integrity has a statistically significant effect on the quality of financial reporting among selected commercial banks in Rwanda (β=.196; p<.05). This suggests that holding other factors constant, accounting integrity contributes up to 19.6% of the variation in the quality of financial reporting. For the second hypothesis (H02), it is observed that accounting objectivity has a statistically significant effect on the quality of financial reporting among selected commercial banks in Rwanda (β=.591; p<.05). Regarding the third hypothesis (H03), findings show that professional competence and due care have no statistically significant effect on the quality of financial reporting among selected commercial banks in Rwanda (β=.140; p>.05). The study recommends strengthening professional knowledge and training by investing in continuous training and development programs. Promotion of ethical practices, enhancement of staff and management collaboration and learning culture across the surveyed commercial banks are also recommended. It is hoped that the study will enable the listed commercial banks to improve ethical practices and competences among staffs so as to enhance quality of reporting. Other academicians may also find the study valuable in benchmarking their studies on the same subject.

The specific goals were to examine the effect of economic initiatives on political cooperation, to assess the effect of policy harmonization on EAC political cooperation in the case of Rwanda, and to investigate the relationship between diplomatic efforts and EAC political cooperation in the case of Rwanda. The study's insights on Rwanda-EAC dynamics foster stronger political collaboration, guiding EAC policy decisions. It informs Rwanda's diplomatic strategy, enhances cross-border cooperation within the EAC, and serves as a foundational resource for future research and policy recommendations. The study employs Institutional Liberalism Theory, Neo-Functionalism Theory, and Intergovernmentalism Theory to examine how international institutions, spill over effects, and intergovernmental decision-making shape regional integration and political cooperation within the EAC. The interview guide and questionnaire were used to collect quantitative and qualitative data from the field using a descriptive research design. Interviews were conducted with 30 respondents crossing the Gatuna Border using the convenient sampling technique. 68 respondents were selected from the ministry of foreign affairs based on a purposive sampling method to fill out the questionnaire from their respective offices, making 98 respondents out of 274 people in the target population. The results revealed that the evaluation of economic initiatives revealed strong support for their positive impact on EAC's political cooperation, reflected in high mean scores (4.886 to 4.989) and significant Pearson correlation coefficients (0.322 to 0.674, p < 0.01). Similarly, policy harmonization demonstrated positive effects on political cooperation, evident in high mean scores (4.896 to 4.969) and strong Pearson correlation coefficients (0.452 to 0.702, p < 0.01). Effective diplomatic efforts were found to significantly foster political cooperation, indicated by high mean scores (4.824 to 4.958) and moderate to strong Pearson correlation coefficients (0.245 to 0.914). In conclusion, these results underscore the pivotal roles of economic initiatives, policy harmonization, and diplomatic efforts in strengthening political collaboration within the EAC. The study suggests prioritizing continuous dialogue and mutual understanding among EAC diplomats, emphasizing policy harmonization and regional integration. Rwanda, as an EAC member state, should actively engage in integration efforts, while all member states should strive for collaborative decision-making and standardized policies. Citizens and leadership should support initiatives for economic growth and regional cooperation.

The specific objectives were to: analyze the effect of Credit policy on financial performance of manufacturing companies in Rwanda, examine the effect of Collection policy on financial performance of manufacturing companies in Rwanda, establish the effect of Credit analysis on financial performance of manufacturing companies in Rwanda and assess the effect of Billing and invoicing on financial performance of manufacturing companies in Rwanda.

Primary data was collected using a well-structured questionnaire. The study utilized questionnaires as an instrument for data collection. Data was analyzed for descriptive and inferential statistics using SPSS version 21. Descriptive statistics such as mean, standard deviation was used to test the data.
