This study investigates consumer online purchase intentions in emerging markets by focusing on the impact of country of origin (COO), trust, and satisfaction. The findings emanate from an analysis of the online survey completed by 987 Indian online shoppers. The partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) on SmartPLS was used for analyzing the data. The results indicate that COO plays a vital role in influencing online purchase intentions with the mediating effect of trust and satisfaction. The study finds that COO cues enhance consumer trust and satisfaction, thereby leading to purchase intention. The results indicate that online retailers operating in India, originating either from India or developed countries like the USA should use their country brand to build popularity. Furthermore, this study helps to understand the influence of COO on online purchase intentions in an emerging market like India more comprehensively.

This article examines the co-integration among the financial markets of four countries (India, the USA, Japan, and Hong Kong) from April 2010 to May 2021. Using the Johansen co-integration test, we establish the integration between the stock markets of these countries. The test clearly shows that there exists long-run co-integration between these countries. Furthermore, we checked the relationship of one country with another by applying the multivariate Granger causality test, which shows the influence of the US market over the other countries. The results significantly show the existence of long-run co-integration and linkages between these financial markets. Applying the Vector error correction model and variance decomposition analysis for the period confirms the result obtained from multivariate Granger causality. As the study shows, the stock market of the countries is not entirely inter-linked. However, some tests provide the pairwise linkages but not when talking about all the nations together. That means the rise in one stock market does not necessarily impact the surge in other stock exchanges, which means investors can profit from diversifying between these stock exchanges. It provides the opportunity for portfolio diversification to investors. The study shows that “the international stock market is neither fully integrated nor completely segmented,” giving international diversification an opportunity. As in our study, the “U.S. market is the most exogenous,” and the Japanese market is relatively isolated from the other market, where the impact from the different markets is not that significant.

In the face of unusual global health crisis, governments would strive to foster right conditions through maintenance of broad-based macro-economic management for businesses to thrive. However, the COVID-19 pandemic response measures have put a disproportionate burden on most economies, especially in the region with high economic vulnerabilities. Between 2020 and 2021, the outbreak of COVID-19 has not only upended normal economic and social pattern but also distorted the development trajectory in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). Hence, this study reveals how lack of economic resilience weakened policymakers’ capacity to maintain an inclusive and sustainable policy approach across African countries, which has accentuated underdevelopment and unemployment crisis. Through the conceptual coverage of the economic impact of COVID-19 policy measures in the SSA region, the adverse effect of the pandemic on employment is further confirmed. The effect of the COVID-19 outbreak on unemployment seems to have outweighed the resulting morbidity and fatality. Furthermore, the impact of COVID-19 policy responses on unemployment was found to be pervasive in key SSA economies like Nigeria and South Africa. This has led to entrenched social crisis and pandemic-induced economic challenges in the region. It is therefore suggested that maintaining appropriate policy measures is critical to offsetting the structural characteristics that have given rise to unemployment crisis in the region. In addition, with the support of international organizations, the use of COVID-19 vaccines with effective treatments should be encouraged across African countries.

The study covers aspects of leadership trust among the information technology (IT) employees in India, with the help of data collected from a cross section of 205 IT employees. The article has assessed leadership trust factor from the employee’s (workforce) perspective with COVID19 pandemic and work-from-home situation. The outcome of data establishes a positive relationship between leadership trust and factors such as communication, decision-making, integrity, and motivation. The study also suggests that the IT sector and its leadership have created a positive trust among the employees during the COVID-19 work-from-home scenario. Findings suggest that in areas like integrity and making decisions quickly, the IT leadership has exhibited high trust levels, while in some other areas like communication and keeping the employees motivated (inspired), there have been few minor gaps that require attention from the leadership, which could preclude the wilting of established trust between the leader and his employees.

The present study has demonstrated the impact of consumer’s susceptibility of interpersonal influence and vanity aspects on luxury brand consumption. Study was conducted in the northwestern region of India with 650 research participants; quota sampling was used in the process of research. Researchers used SPSS 21.0 to explore reliability, factorability, and correlation among the variables. For analyzing the structural model, AMOS 21.0 was used. Results found that value-expressive influence affects luxury brand consumption more than utilitarian influence, and informational influence is positively related to luxury brand consumption. Results found that luxury brand consumption is associated with achievement aspects of luxury.

The present study investigates the relationship between Financial Inclusion Index (FII) and Human Development Index (HDI) of Indian economy. The study developed FII for the Indian economy from 1991 to 2020 by using the dimensions of banking penetration, banking availability and usage of banking services. The well-known techniques of Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Technique of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) is used to develop FII. The ARDL bound test confirms the existence of a long-run relationship between financial inclusion and human development. Granger non-causality confirms the existence of bidirectional causality between financial inclusion and human development. As financial inclusion acts as a key for human development, government should adopt policies to speed up the financial inclusion process in India.

The present study investigates the effect of changes in money supply on both Indian stock market sensitive index and stock market overall capitalization by employing unit root test with break point, Johansen’s cointegration test, vector error correction (VEC) model, VEC Granger causality test, variance decomposition, and impulse response function. The result of the unit root test reveals that all the variables are nonstationary in levels but become stationary at the first-order difference. The unit root test further reveals that there are structural breaks in the mid-1990s or 2000s. The Johansen’s cointegration test reveals that the Indian stock market index and stock market capitalization are individually cointegrated with money supply. Further, the long-run co-movement between the Indian stock market and money supply and stock market capitalization and money supply is found to be positive. The results of the VEC model shows that the error correction term in the lnSENSEX–lnMS model is negative and statistically significant, while the error correction term in the lnMARCAP–lnMS model is found to be insignificant. The VEC Granger causality test shows that there is no short-run causal relationship between the variables. The variance decomposition indicates that both Indian stock market index and stock market capitalization are strongly exogenous. The impulse response function suggests that money supply has an immediate positive effect on both Indian stock market index and stock market capitalization. The investors and fund managers should take investment decisions keeping in view the positive co-movement of Indian stock market performance and broad money supply. The study recommends that the government should avoid aggressive tightening of money supply.

This work studies the satisfaction experienced by electricity customers in Osun, Lagos, and Ogun States during the recent lockdown occasioned by the COVID-19 pandemic. The measures of the satisfaction are based on the hours of electricity supply during the period, easiness experienced for payment of prepaid bill and swiftness in faults correction of the distribution companies involved. A questionnaire was developed using Google Forms. The form was shared through various online platforms. A total of 274 electricity consumers responded to the questionnaire, but after sorting, 259 consumers across the three states were analyzed. From the responses, majority of respondents claim there was increased hours of supply during the period when compared to before the period. For prepaid customers who had reasons to pay electricity bill, majority claim it was easy paying while most of those who claimed it was not easy was because of their payment method choices, which is using designated points. Majority of those who have reasons for faults to be corrected by the distribution companies claim that there was not promptness in fault correction.

Entrepreneurial orientation (EO) refers to entrepreneurial activities of established and existing firms. It is different from individual entrepreneurial orientation (Popov et al., 2019, Education + Training, vol. 61, pp. 65–78). EO refers to the processes, practices, and decision-making activities that lead to new venture creation (Walter et al., 2006, Journal of Business Venturing, vol. 21, pp. 541–567). The EO scale by Lumpkin and Dess (1996, Academy of Management Review, vol. 21, pp. 135–172) consists of innovativeness, proactiveness, risk-taking, competitive aggressiveness, and autonomy. This scale is widely used in literature with major drawback of it being developed and evaluated in a developed economy (the USA) on large corporations. Very little literature is available with reference to validation of EO scales in developing economies, particularly India where firms are generally small. New Comprehensive Entrepreneurial Orientation Scale (CENTORES) has been developed and validated by adding additional dimension of strategic flexibility, which is the novelty of the present study. Data were collected using a survey instrument comprising of 19 items. The scientific scale development procedure as suggested by Schwab, (1980) was followed, first an exploratory factor analysis (EFA) was done to explore factors and later confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was done to confirm factors (using SPSS and Amos). Six stable factors emerged from EFA which were subsequently confirmed through CFA. The measurement model confirmed the factors with good model fit indices as suggested by Hair et al. (2014). The model has CMIN/df = 2.237, CFI = 0.917, GFI = 0.928, NFI = 0.882, and RMSEA = 0.052.
创业导向(EO)是指既有企业和现有企业的创业活动。它不同于个人创业导向(Popov et al., 2019, Education + Training, vol. 61, pp. 65-78)。EO指的是导致创业的过程、实践和决策活动(Walter et al., 2006, Journal of Business ventures,第21卷,第541-567页)。Lumpkin和Dess (1996, Academy of Management Review,第21卷,第135-172页)的绩效量表包括创新、主动性、冒险、竞争侵略性和自主性。这种量表在文献中被广泛使用,主要缺点是它是在发达经济体(美国)对大公司进行开发和评估的。关于在发展中经济体,特别是公司一般规模较小的印度验证EO规模的文献很少。本文开发了新的综合创业取向量表(CENTORES),并通过增加战略灵活性维度进行了验证,这是本研究的新颖之处。数据收集使用的调查工具包括19个项目。遵循Schwab(1980)提出的科学量表开发程序,首先进行探索性因子分析(EFA)来探索因素,然后进行验证性因子分析(CFA)来确认因素(使用SPSS和Amos)。EFA出现了六个稳定因素,随后通过CFA证实。测量模型确认了Hair et al.(2014)提出的模型拟合指标好的因素。模型的CMIN/df = 2.237, CFI = 0.917, GFI = 0.928, NFI = 0.882, RMSEA = 0.052。
