Abstract: The objective of this study is to empirically elucidate the influence of the corporate risk management model on the quality financial reports within the context of Jordanian commercial banks, with a specific focus on two critical dimensions: relevance and faithful representation. According to signal theory, each company tries to reduce information asymmetry by providing high-quality of financial reports that have the ability to demonstrate their qualities, depending on that concept. The predominant trend in contemporary practice is the utilization of risk management as a tool to elevate the quality of financial reports. This, in turn, assists in curtailing the manipulation of financial reports, culminating in the issuance of reports characterized by credibility and transparency. This, in turn, reflected on all different users of financial reports in the decision-making process. To accomplish the study's objectives, a descriptive-deductive (analytical) research approach was adopted. The research population encompassed a total of thirteen commercial banks operating at Jordan. Data were collected through a structured questionnaire administered to a randomly selected sample of 234 employees from the financial and supervisory departments of these banks. The study's results strongly suggest that the risk management model has a big effect on the quality of financial reports in Jordanian banks. This model includes things like setting goals, event identification, risk assessment, risk response, supervisory activities, and the evaluation of the financial reporting system.
