This paper examines the relationship between commercial banks' characteristics and economic growth in Vietnam using the FEM and REM models to test the effect of commercial bank characteristics on economic growth in Vietnam. Using a panel dataset of 28 commercial banks from 2010 to 2021, we investigate the impact of bank characteristics on economic growth and provide some important findings. Our findings show that bank characteristics significantly affect economic growth. These results suggest that policymakers should focus on controlling banks’ activities to support economic growth in Vietnam. Overall, this study contributes to the existing literature on the role of commercial banks in promoting economic growth in developing countries like Vietnam.
本文采用FEM和REM模型对越南商业银行特征与经济增长之间的关系进行了检验,以检验商业银行特征对越南经济增长的影响。利用2010年至2021年28家商业银行的面板数据集,我们研究了银行特征对经济增长的影响,并得出了一些重要发现。我们的研究结果表明,银行特征显著影响经济增长。这些结果表明,政策制定者应该把重点放在控制银行的活动上,以支持越南的经济增长。总的来说,本研究有助于现有文献对商业银行在促进越南等发展中国家经济增长中的作用的研究。

Commercial forestry sector in India is largely state owned. Madhya Pradesh is a unique state in India in the sense that two different forms of the organizations are working for timber and non-timber production in the state. It’s notable that Government of India has endorsed this model of doing commercial forestry and advised all the states in the country to adapt this model. It becomes important then to review the business model of the state’s forest resources especially the non-nationalized forest produce which is open for private sector. Unlike leading India based business entities like Patanjali, Dabur and Himalaya, the income generated through the network of the MP Minor Forest Produce (MFP) federation (which is government supported entity) is majorly distributing the profits among the collectors of the herbal produce. The thriving of this federation network is essential for the sake of livelihood, conservation and public health. These outcomes are relevant in the context of achieving the sustainable development goals. An independent consultant Mr. Darpan Kumar (pseudonym) analyses the business choices available in the industry and the state of strategic direction of the federation. The study presents the product/business diversification dilemma.
印度的商业林业主要是国有的。中央邦在印度是一个独特的邦,因为两种不同形式的组织在该邦从事木材和非木材生产。值得注意的是,印度政府已经认可了这种商业林业模式,并建议该国所有的邦都采用这种模式。因此,重新审视国有森林资源的经营模式,特别是对私营部门开放的非国有林产品的经营模式就显得尤为重要。与Patanjali, Dabur和Himalaya等印度领先的商业实体不同,通过MP小森林产品(MFP)联合会(这是政府支持的实体)网络产生的收入主要是在草药产品的收集者之间分配利润。为了生计、保护和公众健康,这个联盟网络的繁荣是必不可少的。这些成果与实现可持续发展目标息息相关。独立顾问达潘·库马尔先生(化名)分析了该行业现有的商业选择和联合会的战略方向。该研究提出了产品/业务多样化困境。

Using Strategic Foresight to Lead in a Gentrifying Business Culture 运用战略远见引领高绅化商业文化
Q4 Business, Management and Accounting Pub Date : 2023-03-30 DOI: 10.37391/ijbmr.110107
Dr. Rod Kuhn King
Data has demonstrated that affluent suburban whites are returning to inner cities, which low-income minorities have occupied for decades. This return is increasing investment and development by small and large businesses seeking to meet the needs of this new demographic. The data has also demonstrated the conflict that these businesses are experiencing from long-time residents, community leaders, and activists. This article will give leaders a strategic approach to addressing conflict before, during, and after the gentrification process.This article will discuss the theory of strategic foresight and its importance to leaders confronting gentrification. The article will demonstrate strategic foresight’s advantages to leaders and their organizations and how predictive and adaptive leaders can better embrace the future and changes.Strategic foresight assists leaders in embracing change and contemplating the effects of developing trends so they are well-prepared for market shifts, threats, and opportunities . While research has demonstrated the adverse effects accompanying gentrification, strategic foresight can assist leaders in discovering the opportunities these shifts can bring and how to gain the support and acceptance of others effectively.
数据显示,富裕的郊区白人正在返回低收入少数族裔居住了几十年的内城。这种回报正在增加寻求满足这一新人口需求的小型和大型企业的投资和发展。数据还表明,这些企业正经历着来自长期居民、社区领袖和活动人士的冲突。这篇文章将给领导人一个战略性的方法来解决冲突之前,期间和之后的绅士化过程。本文将讨论战略预见理论及其对面对士绅化的领导者的重要性。本文将展示战略远见对领导者及其组织的优势,以及预测性和适应性领导者如何更好地拥抱未来和变化。战略远见帮助领导者接受变化,并考虑发展趋势的影响,以便他们为市场变化、威胁和机会做好充分准备。虽然研究已经证明了中产阶级化带来的不利影响,但战略远见可以帮助领导者发现这些转变可能带来的机会,以及如何有效地获得他人的支持和接受。

It is important to identify and assess factors related to corporate governance which affect the financial statements quality of listed companies on the Ha Noi Stock Exchange (HNX). The results of this study show that these factors including the independence of Board of Directors (BOD), BOD ownership, and auditing firm quality and size of company have impacts the financial reporting quality of firms on the HNX. In addition, we find that the size and leverage of the company can serve as a basis for improving the quality of financial statements in the future. Our study provides some important implications for firms to enhance financial reporting quality in Vietnam.
识别和评估影响河内证券交易所(HNX)上市公司财务报表质量的公司治理相关因素非常重要。研究结果表明,董事会独立性、董事会所有权、审计事务所质量和公司规模等因素对HNX上公司的财务报告质量有影响。此外,我们发现公司的规模和杠杆率可以作为未来提高财务报表质量的基础。本研究为越南企业提高财务报告质量提供了重要启示。

Factor Analysis: Dealing with Response Bias 因子分析:应对反应偏差
Q4 Business, Management and Accounting Pub Date : 2023-03-30 DOI: 10.37391/ijbmr.110103
R. Goedegebuure, Manorama Adhikari
This paper proposes an innovative method for factor analyzing data that potentially contains individual response bias. Past methods include the use of “ipsative” data, or, related to that, “ipsatized” data. Unfortunately, factor analysis as the main method used for analyzing the dimensionality of data, cannot be applied to ipsative data. In contrast, normalization of data as an alternative method to filter out response bias, is not hampered by the technical statistical issues inherent to applying multivariate techniques to ipsative data. Using high-quality data from a survey in Nepal that makes use of – among others – the High-Performance Organizations (HPO) framework, this paper shows that the traditional approach of directly applying Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) starting from an existing model or theory, is inferior to our approach. Even applying Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) to the raw (non-normalized) data before using CFA, is unable to detect the optimal dimensionality, or structure, in the data. A better structure can be obtained by performing EFA on normalized data that corrects for response bias in the raw data. This paper convincingly shows that the newly identified structure is superior to the original structure suggested by the HPO framework. Applying a CFA using the newly detected structure on the raw data, gives excellent goodness-of-fit statistics, with more items retained, and no need of forced methods to improve the model fit. The findings suggest that existing models and questionnaires based on these models, are not necessarily as valid and reliable as empirical studies that make use of traditional analyses seem to suggest. When adopting existing instruments, researchers are advised to critically check the validity and reliability of these instruments – especially those vulnerable to response bias - and to apply the procedures laid out in this paper, in order to enhance the quality of their research, and to inform future researchers who consider using the same instruments or to warn them about the potential shortcomings of these instruments.
本文提出了一种创新的方法来分析可能包含个体反应偏差的数据。过去的方法包括使用“被动”数据,或者与之相关的“被动”数据。遗憾的是,因子分析作为分析数据维度的主要方法,并不适用于替代数据。相比之下,数据规范化作为一种过滤掉响应偏差的替代方法,不会受到将多变量技术应用于替代数据所固有的技术统计问题的阻碍。本文使用来自尼泊尔的一项调查的高质量数据,其中使用了高性能组织(HPO)框架,表明从现有模型或理论开始直接应用验证性因子分析(CFA)的传统方法不如我们的方法。即使在使用CFA之前对原始(非规范化)数据应用探索性因子分析(EFA),也无法检测到数据中的最佳维度或结构。通过对规范化数据执行EFA,可以获得更好的结构,从而纠正原始数据中的响应偏差。本文令人信服地表明,新识别的结构优于HPO框架所建议的原始结构。在原始数据上使用新检测到的结构应用CFA,可以得到很好的拟合优度统计,保留了更多的项目,并且不需要强制方法来改善模型拟合。研究结果表明,现有的模型和基于这些模型的调查问卷并不一定像利用传统分析的实证研究所表明的那样有效和可靠。在采用现有仪器时,建议研究人员严格检查这些仪器的有效性和可靠性-特别是那些容易受到反应偏差影响的仪器-并应用本文中列出的程序,以提高他们的研究质量,并告知未来考虑使用相同仪器的研究人员或警告他们这些仪器的潜在缺点。

Machine Maintenance Type and Quality of Output: Evidence from Ghanaian Manufacturing Firms 机器维修类型和产出质量:来自加纳制造企业的证据
Q4 Business, Management and Accounting Pub Date : 2023-03-30 DOI: 10.37391/ijbmr.110101
Benjamin Osei Gyamfi, Gloria Zigah
The need to manage machine maintenance effectively has gained more importance due to the high rate of changing operational technologies, changing market demands, increased emphasis on employee safety, and new environmental legislation. To demonstrate the purpose of maintenance in the manufacturing value chain, the study sought to investigate the relationship between machine maintenance type and quality of output as well as to establish whether machine maintenance contributes to quality of output among Ghanaian manufacturing firms. Data was collected from 150 manufacturing firms in Tema and Accra Metropolis by using questionnaire and analyzed with SPSS and SmartPLS software. The findings showed significantly direct relationship between all the maintenance types, except corrective maintenance, and quality of output. Therefore, if a company minimizes breakdown maintenance, quality defects are also minimized. Hence, adopting preventive maintenance help reduce cost of repairs and unplanned stoppages in the production process.
由于操作技术的快速变化、市场需求的不断变化、对员工安全的日益重视以及新的环境立法,有效管理机器维护的需求变得更加重要。为了证明维修在制造业价值链中的目的,本研究试图调查机器维修类型与产出质量之间的关系,并确定机器维修是否有助于加纳制造企业的产出质量。采用问卷调查法对特马和阿克拉市的150家制造业企业进行数据收集,并采用SPSS和SmartPLS软件进行分析。结果表明,除纠正性维修外,所有维修类型与输出质量之间存在显著的直接关系。因此,如果公司将故障维护最小化,质量缺陷也将最小化。因此,采用预防性维修有助于减少维修成本和生产过程中的意外停机。

This paper provides a conceptual overview of what a post-pandemic ecosystem for MSME financing might be, and how policymakers might apply it. Current COVID-19 emergency measures are not sustainable, and fintech and other technologies offer improvements for access to MSME finance worldwide. We offer a macro-perspective of how MSME financing might balance the competing interests of various stakeholders via the lens of ikigai. The Japanese term for fulfilment, and how fintech provides the “digital unlock” that has been missing to this point. We derive practical suggestions for policymakers from our theoretical framework, using real-world examples to transition from the abstract to the concrete.
本文从概念上概述了大流行后的中小微企业融资生态系统可能是什么,以及政策制定者如何应用它。目前的COVID-19应急措施是不可持续的,金融科技和其他技术为全球中小微企业获得融资提供了改善。我们通过ikigai的视角,从宏观角度探讨了中小微企业融资如何平衡不同利益相关者之间的竞争利益。这是日语中实现的术语,以及金融科技如何提供了迄今为止所缺失的“数字解锁”。我们从我们的理论框架中为政策制定者提供实用建议,使用现实世界的例子从抽象过渡到具体。
