It is not a secret that Iraq has an attractive economic environment for investment owing to the diversity of the Iraqi economy in its human, natural and spatial resources. We can see this through the positive indicators of oil sector, which has an active role in the economic development, and in the industrial sector, particularly, in the field of sulfur manufacturing, nitrogen fertilizers and phosphates also. Whereas the negative effects of economic fluctuations due to internal factors related to the poor decision-making investment that is unrelated to the scientific method, and due to external factors that have affected the security and political situation of Iraq. Therefore, it is necessary to provide efficient methods and ways that help investors to target the optimum investment of portfolio in the Iraqi stock market to reduce the risk ratioزThe research aims at identifying the concept of the investment and the risk associated with it, as well as the concept of programming goals as a method of operations research that can be used to make better investment decisions, and to promote the research to the ability and efficiency of this model to deal with multiple conflicting or contradictious objectives with complex variables and constraints to evaluate the investment alternatives of the company which is under studying.
