In recent decades, the Efficient Market Hypothesis has been the subject of debate among professionals and academics. In this hypothesis, the value premium is a key aspect that challenges market efficiency. The main objective of this study is to comprehensively investigate the value versus growth anomaly in the Vietnamese market between 2013 and 2023. Based on the empirical data, value portfolios have yielded a greater average return than growth portfolios in the Vietnamese stock market during this period. Although their levels of market risk (measured by beta) are nearly the same, the added-risk level of value portfolios is substantially higher than growth portfolios. Therefore, the value premium in Vietnam is compensated for bearing a higher risk level, consistent with the risk-based explanation.

This paper examines the effect of shadow banking activities on the performance and risk-taking of 339 Vietnamese nonfinancial firms listed on the Ho Chi Minh Stock Exchange (HOSE). Using manually gathered data on firms' shadow banking activities from 2009 to 2021, the expansion of shadow banking is found to have a negative effect on the overall financial soundness of the securities companies, in particular negatively affecting performance and increasing the risk tolerance of companies. We present empirical findings about several aspects of shadow banking activities, including entrusted loans, entrusted investments, private lending, leasing, and commercial credit in this study. While the majority of shadow banking operations could have a negative impact on a firm's performance, we have discovered that commercial credit grants were crucial in reducing the COVID-19 pandemic's adverse effects on businesses, highlighting the need for financial stability in times of crisis. According to our results, the risk of shadow banking activities, which have consequences for policymakers and caution for nonfinancial enterprises, must be taken into consideration.

This article presents a comprehensive assessment of the impact of infrastructure on tourism, exploring its crucial role in shaping the tourism industry. Through expert methods and survey analysis, the study highlights the quality of infrastructure by assessing the development level of transportation, accommodation, tourist attractions, amenities, and tourism services in Uzbekistan’s 14 regions. As a result, the classification of regions with regard to infrastructure development is proposed. In addition, an equilibrium equation in the tourism market concerning infrastructure facilities is suggested, which can be used to assess the balanced development of general infrastructure. The findings underscore the need for policymakers and stakeholders to recognize the direct correlation between infrastructure and tourism success, providing insights to guide future infrastructure planning and development initiatives in the ever-evolving global tourism landscape.

This paper aims to estimate the effect of liquidity on the profitability of firms listed on the Ho Chi Minh City Stock Exchange (HSX) in Vietnam during the COVID-19 outbreak. Using a quantitative research method (the feasible generalized least squares method - FGLS), six factors affecting the firms' performance from 2012 to 2021 are identified: COVID-19, the liquidity ratio, firm age, firm size, tangible assets, and gross domestic product growth. This paper has especially highlighted liquidity's negative and significant effect on firms' performance during the pandemic. Therefore, the study findings indicate that manufacturing firms with high liquidity during COVID-19 lose the opportunity to increase revenue due to funds tied to working capital that cannot be used to support the company's operations under the trade-off theory. Besides, high liquidity also increases the company's opportunity cost, which decreases company profitability. However, the study was conducted in a country with government intervention, political stability, and peace, unlike a country in a period of war and economic difficulties, such as Ukraine. Therefore, the article used a cross-country database for more generalizable results.

The agricultural sector plays a significant role in Vietnam's economy, contributing to food security, employment, and export revenues. The European Union (EU) has emerged as a promising market for Vietnam's agricultural exports in recent years. However, Vietnam must embrace technological advancements in the agricultural sector to penetrate and succeed in the highly competitive and regulated EU market. Despite the evidence supporting the positive impact of technology adoption on agricultural exports, there is a research gap regarding the specific role of technological readiness in promoting Vietnam's agricultural exports to the EU. This study aims to fill this research gap by investigating the relationship between technological readiness and Vietnam's agricultural exports to the EU market. The findings can provide valuable insights for policymakers and stakeholders to formulate strategies that enhance the competitiveness of Vietnam's agricultural sector and increase exports to the EU market.

The study aims to evaluate the efficiency of the Republic of Kazakhstan's healthcare sector over the period 2014-2021 using the non-parametric method of data envelope analysis. The analysis was carried out based on quantitative indicators of the medical statistics of the Republic of Kazakhstan. The study's results prove that efficiency tends to change over the medium term. Simultaneously, implementing digital technologies based on the computerisation and digitalisation of the healthcare sector in the short term is revealed to reduce overall efficiency, but that efficiency increases in the long term. The events of the COVID-19 pandemic did not reduce the overall efficiency of the healthcare sector in the Republic of Kazakhstan.

This paper aims to estimate the effect of the reliability of financial statements on listed firms’ performance in Vietnam, especially on the Ho Chi Minh City Stock Exchange, from 2015 to 2022. Based on International Financial Reporting Standards, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles and theories, reliability is a key attribute of information quality in financial statements. Besides, using the quantitative method of feasible generalized least squares (FGLS), the findings show that reliability positively affects listed firms’ performance with a confidence interval of 95%. On the platform of agency theory, the reliability of financial statements is considered a tool to fulfill the duties and responsibilities of managers and the board of directors to external users, while stakeholder theory considers the advantages of the disclosure of reliable financial statements in terms of gaining performance.

This study has examined the experiences of students and teachers with distance education in Uzbekistan during the COVID-19 pandemic. Distance education is a new field in Uzbekistan, and evidence-based practices should be examined for its successful implementation. A convergent mixed-methods design was used, employing surveys and focus group interviews. The survey data was analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics, and the focus group interview data was analyzed using thematic analysis. The results revealed that students and faculty had both positive and negative experiences with distance education, but also suggested that teachers were more self-efficacious in teaching online rather than students learning online. This exploratory study indicates that students need targeted instruction and support on studying online and self-regulate their learning. Teachers should participate in intensive professional learning workshops on materials design and pedagogical practices in online classes. Practical applications and ideas for future research are discussed.
