The advent of technology has led to significant changes in many facets of the economy, including financial services industry. To secure the future of financial services, there is a need to streamline it through digitalization. Thus, the focus of the current study is to examine and uncover the emerging trends through bibliometric analysis of Scopus-indexed publications on digital financial services (DFS) and also to highlight the research agenda and thrust areas that may be covered by prospective research studies. The current research study used performance analysis, bibliographic coupling, and co-occurrence analysis techniques to conduct a bibliometric analysis of research publications in the area of DFS. The articles were assessed and visualized utilizing VoSviewer user interface. Descriptive and visual representations were used to portray the discussions on citations, authors, and source contributions toward the evolution of financial services in the digital realm. The study also shed light on the innovations that have penetrated the financial sector, helping service providers and financial institutions to innovate traditional financial products and services and produce new ones with the help of blockchain, machine learning, and advanced analytics. Also, this article offers a comprehensive roadmap for further research as well as a broad perspective on the leading nations, authors, and publications in the field.

Confusion among consumers is becoming more prevalent in the marketplace. The importance of consumer confusion to businesses is ultimately determined by its consequences and economic relevance; all consequences have a negative impact on the company’s profitability and sales. It is an issue for both customers and marketers. From the extant literature, three types of confusion are in superior position: similarity confusion, overload confusion, and ambiguity confusion. It represents the consumer confusion concept fully. Through the literature review process, this study develops a theoretical framework and provides a better understanding of consumer confusion and cognitive dissonance, as well as how they affect decision postponement. It provides new insight into consumer confusion.

Purpose: This research attempted to reveal the impact of financial distress (FD) on the efficiency level of firms working in India. The objectives are as follows: (a) Obtaining the amount of consequence FD has on the efficiency of firms; (b) Assessing the effect of FD on the firms’ efficiency under the influence of technical efficiency. Design/Methodology/Approach: This article used the panel data method to analyse the data ranging from 2010 to 2019. Findings: The study’s results show a strong and positive relationship between FD and the operational efficiency of businesses operating in India. Additionally, in Shareholder Activism (SHA) most analytical models continually show a consistently positive and statistically significant. However, the Profit Before Interest and Tax (PBIT) impact remains statistically insignificant in all cases. Practical Implications: The implications of this research highlight an essential insight for potential investors, emphasizing the knowledge that FD have the potential to negatively impact a company’s market standing when they culminate in unfavorable circumstances, potentially leading to financial losses for invested capital. Originality/Value: As of now, there are no studies in the body of literature that support the moderating effects of two different variables—PBIT and SHA—on the relationship between FD and a firm’s operational efficiency.

Purpose: The purpose of this research is to undertake a rigorous bibliometric analysis of the trends and patterns in brand equity research; to map the intellectual and social structure of brand equity; and to propose a transition plan for future work in this discipline. Methodology: This study has adopted (SPAR-4) systematic performance analysis and review technique. Following a specified search string, 1,842 journal articles from the previous 31 years (1992–2022) were pulled from the Scopus database. In order to comprehend the field’s knowledge base, various techniques of performance analysis and science mapping were employed using RStudio and VOSviewer. Findings: The results suggest that over the past three decades, both the volume and influence of brand equity studies have surged. Using co-citation analysis, we discovered four distinct subfields within the brand equity literature. Furthermore, the co-authorship network revealed that nations with little geographical, historical, and cultural proximity, such as the United States and South Korea exhibited the most active cross-country brand equity collaborations. Originality/Value: Despite the increasing amount of research being done on brand equity, the current look back is not adequate. This research is the first of its kind to provide practitioners, academics, and future scholars with valuable information about the intellectual and social structure of brand equity.

With the rapid innovation of technology and the cheaper internet, e-commerce is swiftly reaching new heights. The latest form of e-commerce, called online classified business, has emerged based on a consumer-to-consumer e-commerce model. It is mainly used to deal with posting ads online on classified portals. However, in the contemporary world, it also facilitates and fosters consumers to buy and sell brand-new and used merchandise from each other without any intermediary. A long-standing and overlooked form of e-commerce has lately caught researchers’ interest. Facebook marketplace, launched by Facebook, is one of the latest portals augmenting online classified business. The present study is the first of its kind, which intends to integrate the technology acceptance model with two critical theories, namely Theory of Diffusion of Innovations and theory of planned behaviour, to study the adoption of an online classified portal like Facebook marketplace. The research used structural equation modelling to test the hypothesized relationships. The study asserts that Perceived ease of use is the most vital determinant, followed by Subjective Norm and Perceived Usefulness, which affects the Intention to use the Facebook marketplace. Visibility was found to play no role in influencing Intention to use. The study can have many implications for the Facebook marketplace and other stakeholders.

Purpose: Unboxing is a relatively new social media occurrence, where a YouTube unboxer’s amateur video gradually unwraps and reviews a new product for the followers. The phenomenon has caught the attention of both the marketing industry and academia due to its potential to influence purchase intent. The present research focuses on the relevant unboxing literature with a special focus on source characteristics, purposive motives, and nonpurposive motives; hypothesizes a research model and empirically tests it to probe how the unboxing phenomenon influences purchase intention. Design/Methodology/Approach: The researchers conducted an online survey for data collection from 705 social media users and used structural equation modeling and moderation analysis for data analysis. Findings: The present research proposed and tested a model of unboxing using parasocial interaction (PSI). It found that PSI does influence purchase intent in unboxing and found support for six out of seven antecedents of PSI hypothesized in the model. Practical Implications: The findings of the study can help marketing organizations to understand the importance of YouTube influencer-induced PSI to design effective advertising campaigns through influencer marketing in order to drive purchase intent. Originality/Value: The present study aims to understand the unboxing phenomenon by analyzing the proposed model. This study contributes to the limited literature on the nascent YouTube unboxing in an emerging economy context and extends previous research in this field by incorporating new variables. Also, it studies the effect of gender as a moderator in an unboxing context for the first time.

Purpose: Past studies show that Machiavellianism, Organizational Cynicism, and Workplace Incivility can lead to adverse behavioral outcomes. For a munificent work climate and performance, managing these behaviors is essential. Which may hypothetically be difficult for leaders with positive behavioral orientation. Servant Leaders possess positive qualities like forgiveness, compassion, morality, and emotional healing. The study attempts to examine whether they are overwhelmed by or are able to manage the impact of behaviors like Machiavellianism, Organizational Cynicism and Workplace Incivility which are known to hamper trust and performance. Method: The study employs moderated mediation analysis using structural equation modeling (SEM) to model the moderating role of servant leadership over the relationship between Machiavellianism, Organizational Cynicism, and Organizational Incivility (independent variables) and performance (dependent variable) as mediated by trust climate. Findings: Results show that Servant Leadership plays a moderating role such that it significantly diminishes the negative effect of Machiavellianism, Organizational Cynicism and Organizational Incivility on Trust climate and (through that) on performance. Trust climate fully mediates the negative relationship between independent variables and dependent variables. Practical Implications: Present study suggests that the positive qualities of servant leaders are not overwhelmed by Machiavellianism, Organizational Cynicism, and Workplace Incivility. Instead, they are successfully able to maintain environment of trust leading to positive performance. Originality/Value: Since the impact of Servant Leadership style in presence of negative behaviors has not been examined yet; present study fills this gap and shows that qualities of servant leaders reduce the impact of negative behaviors like Machiavellianism, Organizational Cynicism and Workplace Incivility.

Purpose: The research paper aims to understand the influence of specific triggers derived from entrepreneurship education programs (EEPs) on students’ intentions. Additionally, it extends the theory of planned behavior by including an additional construct of perceived social support (PSS) as a determinant of students’ entrepreneurship intention (EI). Methodology: A sample of 395 university students from the Indian state of Gujarat, who had previously attended EEPs, was selected. A convenient sampling method was employed to validate the scale, which was further refined using confirmatory factor analysis in the first stage and through the measurement model in Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) in the second step. Findings: The triggers derived from assessed EEPs had a significant impact on EI and its antecedents. While PSS did not have any significant impact on attitude, it did have considerable influence on perceived behavior control and subjective norms. Practical Implications: Universities should extensively address the trigger component in EEPs. It is the trigger derived from these programs that raises attitudes and intentions toward entrepreneurship. This article also confirms that PSS is essential for the development of EI, owing to which, policy support from government and universities does enhance the students’ enthusiasm to pursue sustainable entrepreneurship. Originality/Value: This research makes unique contribution to entrepreneurship literature by considering the role of ‘triggers’ that are acquired from EEPs because they raise the attitudes and intentions among students.

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the variations in work motivation and Gen Z employee retention concerning the demographic characteristics of the employees and to assess the moderating impact of demographic variables on the relationship between work motivation and Gen Z employee retention. Design/Methodology/Approach: The empirical research was conducted by employing a quantitative research design from Indian Gen Z employees working at various organizations. A cross-sectional time frame was followed, wherein data was collected from 755 participants for their perception of work motivation and employee retention using a questionnaire. Descriptive and inferential statistical methods were used to examine the relationships between the study variables and to validate the developed model for the study using Smart PLS v3 software. Findings: Overall, the study found that workplace motivation has a significant effect on Gen Z employees’ retention. Moreover, the association between job motivation and Gen Z employee retention was moderated by gender, income, and industry type. However, the association between work motivation and Gen Z employee retention was unaffected by the level of education. Research Implications: The findings of the study specifically provide insights for HR practitioners. It can be implied that motivating employees and retaining them are among the essential elements of every organization. The organizations must create equal opportunities for males and females.
