This study attempts to relate the poverty problem in the Philippines using spatial accessibility measures. Spatial accessibility is the ease with which one could avail of the social services and economic opportunities laid in geographic space to the individual. Using the provinces of Eastern Samar and Siquijor Island as case studies, a Social Composite Index (SCI) value for the household was derived from the 13+1 CBMS core indicators of poverty, which represents the unmet needs of the household and which was then aggregated at the barangay level. The spatial accessibility values were estimated by measuring how each barangay, specifically households, would avail themselves of the social services (such as schools and hospitals) and economic opportunities in the town center or major economic centers. The ease or difficulty of availing these social services and economic opportunities was estimated using the time variable in order to relate accessibility to the poverty indicators in the barangay. Multiple regression models were developed to relate poverty indicators to spatial accessibility measures and then tested to determine their impact on poverty. The tests showed that expected improvements in accessibility of more elementary schools in Siquijor would redound to a higher SCI or lower poverty levels. The planned merger of hospitals in Eastern Samar, revealed a lower SCI or an increase in poverty levels. Clearly, therefore, the link between poverty and accessibility could be established using CBMS data, and more importantly, could be used to predict the impact of planned social infrastructures on poverty levels.

本研究试图利用空间可达性措施将菲律宾的贫困问题联系起来。空间可达性是指人们能够方便地利用地理空间中为个人提供的社会服务和经济机会。以东萨马省和锡基霍尔岛省为例,从13+1 CBMS核心贫困指标中得出家庭的社会综合指数(SCI)值,该值代表了家庭未满足的需求,然后在村一级进行汇总。空间可达性值是通过衡量每个村,特别是家庭如何利用城镇中心或主要经济中心的社会服务(如学校和医院)和经济机会来估计的。利用时间变量估计了获得这些社会服务和经济机会的难易程度,以便将可及性与村内的贫穷指标联系起来。建立了多个回归模型,将贫困指标与空间可达性措施联系起来,然后进行测试,以确定它们对贫困的影响。测试表明,siquimajor更多小学的可及性的预期改善将导致更高的SCI或更低的贫困水平。东萨马岛计划合并的医院显示出较低的脊髓损伤或贫困水平的增加。因此,很明显,可利用CBMS数据确定贫困与无障碍之间的联系,更重要的是,可以用来预测计划中的社会基础设施对贫困水平的影响。关键词:贫困;空间可达性;能够;社会综合指数DOI: 10.3860/ber.v20i2.1913 DLSU商业与经济评论20.2 (2011),pp. 45-65

This study empirically examined the impact of capital market development on economic growth in Nigeria for the period 1981-2008. The major tool we employed for empirical analysis is a multiple regression analysis model specified on the basis of hypothesized functional relationship between capital market development and economic growth. For capital market development indicators, we considered ratios of value of shares traded, market capitalization, gross capital formation and foreign private investment, to gross domestic product, as explanatory variables, while we used growth rate of gross domestic product as the dependent variable. We introduced an error correction term to capture the flexibility in adjustment to long-run equilibrium. We estimated the model via the ordinary least squares (OLS) techniques. Further, we evaluated the model using relevant statistics. The results showed that while market capitalization, gross capital formation, and foreign private investment individually exerted statistically significant impact on growth of the economy, value of shares traded exerted positive but statistically insignificant impact during the review period. However, the variables jointly exerted statistically significant impact on growth of the economy. In addition, the model exhibited a very high explanatory power and high flexibility in adjustment to long-run equilibrium. The variables time series were stationary at second difference, showed existence of long-run relationship between the two sets of variables, and exhibited stability for the study period. Based on the findings, the study recommended, among others, sustainable development of the capital market to enhance faster rates of capital accumulation for greater productivity gains and economic growth as well as the need to complement market development with real sector macroeconomic policy thrust like significant reduction in lending rates to stimulate investment and manufacturing activities in the real sector and translate capital market gains to real sector output growth.

本研究实证检验了1981-2008年期间尼日利亚资本市场发展对经济增长的影响。实证分析的主要工具是在假设资本市场发展与经济增长的函数关系的基础上建立的多元回归分析模型。对于资本市场发展指标,我们考虑了股票交易价值、市值、资本形成总额和外国私人投资与国内生产总值的比率作为解释变量,而我们使用国内生产总值增长率作为因变量。我们引入了一个误差修正项来捕捉调整到长期均衡的灵活性。我们通过普通最小二乘(OLS)技术估计模型。进一步,我们使用相关统计数据对模型进行评估。结果表明,在回顾期内,市值、资本形成总额和外国私人投资对经济增长的影响在统计上显著,而股票交易价值对经济增长的影响在统计上不显著。然而,这些变量共同对经济增长产生了统计上显著的影响。此外,该模型在调整长期均衡方面表现出很高的解释力和灵活性。变量时间序列在二阶差处平稳,两组变量之间存在长期关系,且在研究期间具有稳定性。根据调查结果,该研究建议,除其他外,资本市场的可持续发展,以提高更快的资本积累速度,以实现更大的生产率增长和经济增长,以及需要通过实体部门宏观经济政策的推动来补充市场发展,如大幅降低贷款利率,以刺激实体部门的投资和制造业活动,并将资本市场收益转化为实体部门的产出增长。关键词:资本市场;发展;经济增长DOI: 10.3860/ber.v20i2.1915 DLSU商业与经济评论20.2 (2011),pp. 79-96

The series of accounting scandals have intensified pressure from stakeholders and regulators on the audit committees to do the jobs for which they are hired. Though most companies have audit committees, their role has been limited due to the lack of expertise and time. An active audit committee is important because it indicate the commitment to the issues of interest because of the reports it release about the activities undertaken during the financial year and the efforts made to ensure adequate internal control. Audit committees must be given the role to approve and review audit fees, thus neutralizing the bias of management influence on the negotiations with the auditors. Of equal importance, auditor independence can be safeguarded if audit committees were composed of a majority of independent and non-executive directors and this might indicate that their independent status would contribute to auditor independence through bridging communication networks and neutralizing any conflict between the management and the auditor. Audit committee can go a long way in enhancing the credibility of the financial disclosures of a company and promoting transparency. Thus, it is essential for the Indian companies to accept and continue with the reforms that are demarcated by the challenges of the new millennium.

这一系列会计丑闻加大了来自利益相关者和监管机构对审计委员会的压力,要求他们尽职尽责。虽然大多数公司都有审计委员会,但由于缺乏专业知识和时间,它们的作用有限。一个积极的审计委员会是重要的,因为它表明了对有关问题的承诺,因为它发布了关于财政年度开展的活动和为确保充分的内部控制所做的努力的报告。必须赋予审计委员会批准和审查审计费用的职能,从而消除管理层对与审计人员谈判的偏见。同样重要的是,如果审计委员会由大多数独立和非执行董事组成,审计师的独立性可以得到保障,这可能表明,他们的独立地位将通过弥合沟通网络和消除管理层与审计师之间的任何冲突,有助于审计师的独立性。审计委员会在提高公司财务披露的可信度和提高透明度方面大有帮助。因此,印度公司必须接受并继续进行新千年挑战所界定的改革。关键词:审计委员会;公司治理;内部审计人员;法定审计师DOI: 10.3860/ber.v20i2.1914 DLSU商业与经济评论20.2 (2011),pp. 67-78

The Quality of Work Life (QWL) is a multi-faceted concept, having multi-dimensional constructs brought about by the variation of interest of the researchers and/or its users. The issue of QWL has become critical due to the increasing demands of today’s business environment and of the family structure. This gave rise to an increased interest in QWL not only in business but also for many professions and fields. Determining QWL always involves the interplay between and among the worker, job content, and job context. Furthermore, the determination of the extent of QWL in an organization is a perceptual undertaking. As such, QWL is greatly influenced by the personal characteristics of those who determine it. Measuring the extent by which QWL in an organization is usually done through the level of satisfaction employees experience using a given set of variables that are appropriate and useful in their situation.
工作生活质量(QWL)是一个多面性的概念,由于研究者和(或)使用者兴趣的变化,它具有多维度的构式。由于当今商业环境和家庭结构的日益增长的需求,QWL问题变得至关重要。这引起了对QWL的兴趣增加,不仅在商业领域,而且在许多专业和领域。确定QWL总是涉及到工人、工作内容和工作上下文之间的相互作用。此外,确定组织中QWL的程度是一项感性的工作。因此,QWL在很大程度上受到决定它的人的个人特征的影响。衡量组织中QWL的程度,通常是通过使用一组给定的变量来衡量员工的满意度,这些变量在他们的情况下是适当和有用的。

This study identified correlates of poverty for Pasay City and Mogpog, Marinduque representing an urban and a rural area in the Philippines, respectively, by utilizing the 2005 census data from its Community-Based Monitoring System. Regression models with the arcsine of the square root of barangay level poverty incidence as dependent variable were investigated which allowed the identification of the correlates of poverty at the barangay level. Results showed that the significant correlates of barangay poverty incidence were average household size, proportion of households whose housing units/lot are not owned and proportion of households who own telephone/cellphone. Furthermore, lower poverty incidences were observed in barangays located in an urban area.
本研究利用其社区监测系统的2005年人口普查数据,确定了帕赛市和马林杜克Mogpog分别代表菲律宾一个城市和一个农村地区的贫困相关因素。以村级贫困率平方根的反正弦为因变量的回归模型进行了研究,从而确定了村级贫困率的相关关系。结果表明:平均家庭规模、无住房单位/地块家庭比例和拥有电话/手机家庭比例与村寨贫困率有显著相关;此外,位于城市地区的乡村的贫困发生率较低。

The Philippines committed itself to the United Nations' Millennium Development Goals (MDG), one of which is the universal access to primary education by 2015. To address the goal, supply factors and demand factors must be considered. Supply factors refer to the ability of the government to provide resources to finance elementary education. Demand factors refer to the variables affecting household’s decision to demand educational services such as income, education cost, and demographic characteristics of the households: age structure and family characteristics. This study explored the extent to which household income and household head employment status influence elementary school participation rate among urban and rural households. Based on household data, it was empirically verified that the magnitude of household income does not significantly affect school participation. Although household income has a very small impact on school participation, it must not be ignored because of the probability that households will use the additional income received to augment the insufficiency of basic sustenance that can aid in increasing school participation. Another important result of the study is the varying and positive impact of the employment status on school participation in Pasay and Eastern Samar respectively. School participation can be guaranteed if the household head is employed. This dictum does hold true in Pasay City and Eastern Samar evidencing that parent’s employment status plays an important role in the school participation of children as suggested in the literature.

菲律宾致力于实现联合国的千年发展目标,其中之一就是到2015年普及初等教育。为了实现这一目标,必须考虑供给因素和需求因素。供给因素是指政府为基础教育提供资源的能力。需求因素是指影响家庭对教育服务需求决策的变量,如收入、教育成本和家庭的人口特征:年龄结构和家庭特征。本研究探讨城乡家庭收入与户主就业状况对小学入学率的影响程度。基于家庭数据,实证验证了家庭收入大小对学校参与率的影响不显著。虽然家庭收入对学校参与率的影响很小,但这一点不容忽视,因为家庭很可能会用获得的额外收入来弥补基本生计的不足,从而有助于提高学校参与率。研究的另一个重要结果是就业状况对帕赛和东萨马岛的学校参与分别产生了不同的积极影响。如果户主有工作,就学可以得到保证。这句格言确实适用于帕赛市和东萨马,这表明父母的就业状况在儿童的学校参与中起着重要作用,正如文献中所建议的那样。关键词:就业状况;人力资本理论;关于教育的千年发展目标;DOI: 10.3860/ber.v20i2.1911 DLSU商业与经济评论20.2 (2011),pp. 23-31

Normal 0 false false false MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 A general global trend up to the 1980's has been for nations to rely substantially on external loans and aids for economic sustenance and technological development. This is particularly true for less developed countries (LDC). Unfortunately for these LDCs, their debts have gone beyond the countries' capacity to repay. The debts have, for many such developing countries, been on a perpetual geometrical increase. Such countries have ended up with a debt overhang, with its detrimental impacts on the countries' economic growth and social development. This research note gives a treatise on the theoretical framework of a debt overhang, and a critical review of the challenges, implications, and impacts of a debt overhang on a nation's development and economic growth.
直到20世纪80年代,一个总的全球趋势是,各国在经济维持和技术发展方面在很大程度上依赖外部贷款和援助。对于欠发达国家来说尤其如此。不幸的是,这些最不发达国家的债务已经超出了它们的偿还能力。对许多这样的发展中国家来说,债务一直在以几何级数不断增加。这些国家最终陷入债务危机,对其经济增长和社会发展产生了不利影响。本研究报告对债务过剩的理论框架进行了论述,并对债务过剩对国家发展和经济增长的挑战、影响和影响进行了批判性评述。

This research note gives a treatise on the theoretical framework of a debt overhang, and a critical review of the challenges, implications, and impacts of a debt overhang on a nation's development and economic growth.","PeriodicalId":38908,"journal":{"name":"DLSU Business and Economics Review","volume":"19 1","pages":"1-1"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-08-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70063347","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Normal 0 false false false MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 This study aimed to determine if the SPV Act was actually responsible for the marked decline in NPL ratios this past four years. Using aggregated data for the entire Philippine Banking System, segregated according to type of bank, results suggest that the SPV Act was not responsible for the decline in the NPL ratios but may be attributed to a downward trend in the loan to asset ratio where values are getting closer to the interval for which NPL ratios are at a minimum, economic sluggishness as measured by deviations from the long run trend of macroeconomic variables, and seasonal patterns in macroeconomic variables coinciding with fluctuations in NPL ratios.
本研究旨在确定SPV法案是否真的要为过去四年不良贷款率的显著下降负责。使用整个菲律宾银行系统的汇总数据,根据银行类型进行隔离,结果表明,SPV法案不是不良贷款率下降的原因,但可能归因于贷款与资产比率的下降趋势,其中价值越来越接近不良贷款率处于最低水平的区间,通过偏离宏观经济变量的长期趋势来衡量经济低迷。宏观经济变量的季节性模式与不良贷款率的波动相吻合。

Normal 0 false false false MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 This study used the multiple case study research approach and presents a comparative analysis of the similarities and differences in entrepreneurship styles among second, third and fourth generation overseas Chinese and Filipinos in the Philippines. Specifically, it aimed to compare the entrepreneurs' entrepreneurial characteristics, leadership styles, and value orientation. The results indicate that the two groups are heterogeneous even though they operate business in the same country. However, slowly, the influence of Filipino culture is seen in the fourth generation overseas Chinese. The study hopes to provide new generation of entrepreneurs insights on entrepreneurial styles that need to change to cope with the fast-paced economy brought about by globalization, and traditional styles they can still adopt to capitalize on their rich cultural and ethnic background.
本研究采用多案例研究的方法,对第二代、第三代、第四代华侨华人与菲律宾人创业风格的异同进行了比较分析。具体而言,比较企业家的创业特征、领导风格和价值取向。结果表明,这两个群体是异质的,即使他们在同一个国家经营业务。然而,慢慢地,菲律宾文化的影响在第四代华侨华人身上体现出来。这项研究希望为新一代企业家提供一些见解,让他们了解需要改变的创业风格,以应对全球化带来的快节奏经济,以及他们仍然可以采用的传统风格,以利用他们丰富的文化和民族背景。
