Abstract—This paper is an investigation of the comovement in the form of return and volatility spillover across financial market participants of Bangladesh. This study uses daily price data of commercial banks, non-bank financial institutions (NBFI), and insurance companies traded in the Dhaka Stock Exchange (DSE) for the period spanning 2009 to 2016. Bayesian Vector Autoregressive (VAR) model has been used in the conditional mean equations of EGARCH and GJR-GARCH models have been used to test the return spillover effects whereas lagged squared residuals and lagged conditional variances have been used as variance regressors in conditional variance equations to test the spillover effects of historical volatility and innovations transmitting in the form of shock to other participants operating in the same market. Bayesian VAR output reveals a highly significant bi-directional return spillover between bank-insurance pair and also between NBFIs-insurance pair. However, return spillover between commercial banks and NBFIs is unidirectional; only bank returns are affecting returns from NBFIs. Conditional volatility of NBFIs exhibit a highly significant asymmetric effect implying that bad news increases volatility of NBFIs to a greater degree than good news. Both GJR-GARCH and EGARCH output reveal bidirectional volatility spillover in the form of historical volatility and innovations among commercial banks, NBFIs and insurance companies.

Rooted in the Chinese tradition of Confucianism, research on Paternalistic leadership (PL) has been born in Taiwan and boomed in western scholars in the past thirty years, while studies in this aspect is still relatively scare in South Korea. This study regards PL as research object, introduces organizational identification (OI) as intermediary variable to find out the impact on organizational commitment (OC), while the status of behavior of employees in South Korea, organizations is analyzed, using a sample(N=300) of working professionals enrolled in an executive MBA program in a university in South Korea. Results showed that the authoritarian dimension of PL had no impact on OC, while the benevolence dimension and morality dimension related positively to OC. In addition, Authoritarianism related negatively to OI, while both benevolence and morality related positively to OI; OI had intermediary roles in the impact of benevolence dimension and morality dimension on value commitment (VC). And the mediating effect of OI was investigated relationship between morality dimension and commitment to stay (CTS). Limitations of the study, directions for future research, and implications of the findings are discussed.

Viral phenomenon drives the business and marketing world to achieve an exponential growth through word-of-mouth diffusion process. The diversity of occurrence of the phenomenon, where a product, online videos, or information, technology, an idea or an event could go viral, pose challenge in measuring which performance measure truly captures viral phenomenon. We performed a measurement study using TED talk videos to identify which of the two performance measures, namely views and comments, truly captures and drives a viral phenomenon. We hypothesized that video comments would be a stronger indicator than video views to measure viral phenomenon. Our results reveal a strong correlation between the two video performance measures. However, video views better represents viral videos and therefore a valid indicator for the measurement of viral phenomenon. The insights can help business strategists and marketing managers in decision making on which performance measure needs business focus in driving virality.
