Credit risk management has become an engaging topic for the financial institutes in Nepal. The turmoil in the financial industry emphasizes the importance of effective risk management procedures. The objective of this research study was to identify the credit risk management indicators and their associations with the financial performance of Nepalese commercial banks. According to the findings, the capital adequacy ratio, non-performing loan ratio, and liquidity ratio all have a detrimental impact on bank performance, according to the findings. On the other hand, LLP did not appear to be a significant factor in determining the bank’s performance. As a result, it is advised that to enhance financial performance and minimize the risk of non-performing loans in the future, banks must watch very carefully the loans’ performance and analyze thoroughly the clients’ credit history and ability to pay back their debts prior to any approval of loan applications.

The goal of this research is to examine the impact of personal and related factors on higher education students’ financial planning and behavior. The convenience sample approach was used to obtain data from 382 respondents using a well-structured questionnaire. To diagnose the data acquired, correlation and regression analysis were performed. The findings demonstrated that family background (FB), family support (FS), and financial socialization (FSO) all had a substantial impact on financial planning for students in higher education. Furthermore, family history has the greatest influence on financial planning, whereas financial socialization has the least impact. The practical consequences are clear for students in higher education, and they aid in good financial planning. The article’s novelty comes in its assertion that, in order to attain successful financial planning tactics, better influencing variables must be implemented.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of non-financial incentive scheme on employees’ motivation and their turnover intention. It aimed to examine perception of the employees of the Nepalese development banks regarding the nonfinancial rewards as regards employee motivation in the sample banks. On descriptive as well as explanatory research design which used 100 samples of bank employees selected by using the stratified random sampling method as the primary source of data, the study examined the effect of Job Security, Challenging Work, Performance Recognition, Flexibility of the work, and Leave Provisions on employees’ motivation. Among the major findings, current non-financial incentives practiced in the sampled Nepalese banks were not very satisfactory. However, the results of regression analysis showed job security, leave provisions, challenging work, flexibility of work condition, and performance recognition as being the significant predictors of employee motivation. As such, the study has suggested reviewing the development bank’s nonfinancial reward practices which can play instrumental role to raise current motivation level of their employees.

This study focuses on blockchain as an emerging technology regarding its use to restructure the systems and advance education upon quality outcomes. What are the benefits of integrating blockchain in education concerning system reformation and advancement in developing better educational processes for all-encompassing learning outcomes? With the recent developments of blockchain applications across multiple domains, the education industry seems to be benefited from this technology to a considerable degree. Transcripts and certificates play a vital role in an individual’s life so it needs to be stored in a tamper-proof and long-term available ledger. In pursuant to addressing the aforestated question, this study brings information regarding what blockchain technology is, how it functions and what its uses are if it comes to integrating with education at different levels. This may include reviewing the conceptual/knowledge bases, research and development studies, and sources that introduce blockchain including its features but with a special highlight on how it has been integrated into the education sector especially in an innovative situations. To this end, this study was designed to provide a systematic review of all the literature focused on decentralized ledger technology. Multiple sources were reviewed following a systematic pattern that allows selection of relevant sources, sorting out information being guided by the research question, and making the final selection of required information that connects with what and how of Blockchain in education.
