This research paper is based on investigating the factors affecting the purchasing decision of counterfeit product consumers in the city of Karachi. The study was conducted through convenient sampling by developing a questionnaire based on behavioural as well as demographic questions. The questionnaire was circulated through the social mediums and feedback was collected to carry out statistical tests for the conclusion purpose. A total of 87 responses were received through the survey questionnaire. Descriptive statistics and regression analysis were conducted to deduce quantitative inferences. The findings of the study will be helpful in planning and executing the production of CF products. The study provides data related to the buying behaviour of the CF product’s consumers and the scale of sales as to how often they are sold. The study also helps focus on the need for modifications in CF products as to how much extent the consumers want modifications. This will also help the firms or brands producing CF products to launch modified versions of CF products with competitive prices, availability, and customer preferences.

CPEC is one of the most important topics for research in social science today due to its dominance and prominence in regional studies. There is a heap of research inventory in this area of interest. Although most of the prior studies highlighted opportunities, threats and obstacles associated with CPEC, none of these indicated the potential threats that CPEC imposes on India. Therefore, this study has major importance in the literature as it is associated with the issues which the corridor might create for India. Although there are no prior studies in this regard, there is some evidence regarding the impact of CPEC on India, as no study is complete without addressing negative consequences of CPEC for India. Therefore, researchers bring all these stances together in order to formulate proper framework to address potential threats of CPEC for India. This is highlighted majorly through the support of public opinion and also through associating possible negative impacts of CPEC (on India) with secondary data. The study uses quantitative approach therefore for analysis of public opinion SMART PLS-SEM has been incorporated and results highlighted that youth believes that CPEC is able to produce several threats to India. Although the legal chasm of Gilgit & Biltistan might diminish the extent of these threats.

The purpose of this explanatory research is to investigate the relationship of service quality with customer satisfaction. To examine the relationship, the study was conducted on students of the executive MBA program at a business school in Karachi, Pakistan. The research technique adopted for this study was probabilistic in nature. Both variables under consideration are observed through multiple dimensions. A chi-square test was performed to test the relationship between the qualitative variables. Findings indicate that service quality and all its dimensions have a significant and positive association with customer satisfaction at the university level. The education sector is a significant industry in Pakistan’s economy and has seen unparalleled growth and progression over the last decade. Therefore, this study has been explicitly conducted to look into the service quality phenomenon and seek credible scientific justification in this regard by studying service quality as one of the main influential factors towards customer satisfaction.

The purpose of this paper is to propose and test a model for getting a more comprehensive understanding of brand equity. It aims to analyze the effects of this construct on consumer’s responses using two European countries' data. SEM structural equation modelling was used through which the hypotheses were tested. Measurement invariance and stability of the model across the two national samples were fairly assessed by using multi-group confirmatory factor analysis. The results indicate that dimensions are inter-relatable to brand equity. There is a positive link between brand awareness which impacts brand associations and perceived quality. Brand loyalty is highly relatable by brand associations. At last, all of these are interlinked with brand equity linked to perceived quality, brand associations & brand loyalty. These possible findings link the positive impact of brand equity on the responses of consumers. The proposed general framework is generalized across all nations. Only a few differences were observed. A few in stock of a set of product categories, brands and countries were used. The practical implications of the study provide essential implications for brand equity management. These financial metrics can fit with consumer-based equity measures to better check brand performance over time against competitors to increase quality standards against others. Favourable feedback results in better branding. Moreover, the proposed model using data from a sample is used to study the limited international brand equity literature in two countries. It also enlightens the brand equity literature by empirically in-depth analyzing the relationships between consumer-based brand equity dimensions and their effects on consumers’ responses.

This research study attempts to understand impulsive buying behaviour, which is defined as "an individual type of buying behaviour whereby consumers repetitively spend more than they should, based on financial considerations." The study identified that personality traits such as Extraversion, Agreeableness, Conscientiousness, Neuroticism and Openness to experiences are statistically significant variables in affecting impulse purchase. A quantitative approach was implemented, and explanatory designs were used to describe the factors. The study targeted buyers of different shopping malls in Karachi. Of the unknown size of buyers, 384 visitors were sampled through the non-probability sampling technique. The study data were collected through a questionnaire and analyzed by using explanatory methods. The study concluded that the personality traits extraversion, conscientiousness, neuroticism, and openness have an association between impulse buying behaviour, however, there is no association between agreeableness and impulse buying behaviour.
