Most SMEs experience economic collapse and even insolvency due to a lack of sufficient governmental support, particularly those working in growing nations like Egypt with a heavy focus on SMEs’ growth and political and economic instability. As a result, this paper seeks first to measure the consequences of COVID-19 on financial performance (FP) by comparing small and medium enterprises (SMEs) with listed corporations in the Egyptian Stock Exchange (EGX). Second, we examine the impact of governmental interventions on this association. Our sample includes 26 SMEs in the Tamayoz EGX and the highest 30 firms listed in the EGX30. We applied pooled ordinary least square regression, paired sample test, and Barron and Kenny’s test. We used daily stock market returns from January 2020 to November 2020. The proliferation of COVID-19 has an influence on stock prices in both the EGX30 and Tamayoz stock indexes. We furthermore find a partial mediation of income support, facial-covering, school closures, and restrictions on international movements on the linkage between COVID-19 and FP for SMEs. The stock prices listed in EGX30 seem more sensitive to governmental interventions than Tamayoz EGX. The findings confirm governmental interventions would have a significant role in the firm’s FP during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of corporate governance mechanisms on bank performance in general and the effect of board-constituted committees on bank performance in particular. Primarily, two questions are addressed in the context of the banking sector of India. First, does corporate governance mechanisms reduce the quantum of non-performing assets (NPAs)? Second, does the internal committee affect bank performance? Hence, this paper determines whether independent directors strengthen corporate boards and whether committees affect bank performance. The panel data ordinary least square regression analysis is used for this study. We also use logistic regression models for various committees to find their relationship with bank performance and NPAs. Tobin’s Q is used as proxy for bank performance. Independent variables are board size (BSIZE), proportion of independent directors on the board (PERIND), number of board meetings per year (BMEET), size of the audit committee (AUC), and two measures of the bank business (asset size and loan), and one control variable is time. We use financial and corporate governance data from 2005 to 2018, the study finds that independent directors play a major role on the board. It finds a positive and significant relationship between board independence and bank performance. The performance also increases with the increase in board size but after a point, the curve declines forming and an inverted U-shaped curve is formed. The mandatory internal committees have a crucial role to play, which is demonstrated by their effect on the reduction of NPAs. The significance of a well-functioning board and internal committees in discharging their fiduciary duties is highlighted in this study. An internal committee comprising a majority of independent directors is found to positively affect the performance of banks. They can help managers disburse good-quality loans and keep a check on risk-laden ventures.
本研究旨在探讨公司治理机制对银行绩效的总体影响，特别是董事会下设委员会对银行绩效的影响。研究主要针对印度银行业的两个问题。第一，公司治理机制是否会减少不良资产（NPAs）的数量？第二，内部委员会是否会影响银行业绩？因此，本文确定独立董事是否会加强公司董事会，以及委员会是否会影响银行业绩。本研究采用面板数据普通最小二乘法回归分析。我们还对各种委员会使用了逻辑回归模型，以找出它们与银行绩效和净资产收益率之间的关系。托宾 Q 值被用作银行绩效的替代指标。自变量包括董事会规模（BSIZE）、董事会中独立董事的比例（PERIND）、每年董事会会议的次数（BMEET）、审计委员会的规模（AUC）以及银行业务的两个衡量指标（资产规模和贷款），还有一个控制变量是时间。我们使用 2005 年至 2018 年的财务和公司治理数据，研究发现独立董事在董事会中发挥着重要作用。研究发现，董事会独立性与银行绩效之间存在显著的正相关关系。绩效也随着董事会规模的增加而增加，但在一个点之后，曲线下降，形成倒 U 型曲线。强制性内部委员会发挥着至关重要的作用，其对降低净资产收益率的影响就证明了这一点。本研究强调了运作良好的董事会和内部委员会在履行受托责任方面的重要性。研究发现，由大多数独立董事组成的内部委员会会对银行业绩产生积极影响。他们可以帮助管理者发放优质贷款，并对风险投资进行控制。

The focus of this paper is on the perspectives people hold towards starting their businesses. An investigation was conducted on recent immigrants to Canada, the majority of whom were from South Asian nations. Subsequently, the SmartPLS 3.2.8 analysis tool was used to examine the collected data. According to the findings of the analysis, the perception of having structural support is a poor predictor of entrepreneurial intentions. Conversely, individual characteristics, such as self-efficacy and self-control, are significant predictors of entrepreneurial intentions. The results call into question immigration policies and regulations that select immigrants based on their potential for financial success rather than the businesses they intend to start themselves. The research suggests that if immigrants with high self-efficacy were provided support from their immigrant communities, they could more easily launch new businesses. This information can serve as a guide for immigration policymakers.

Previous ecological behaviour studies have focused on personal factors only, and thus ignored the impact of environmental factors on ecological behaviour. In addition, there are criticism on the complexity of belief component in the value-belief-norm theory. Hence, this study aims to investigate the effect of environmental factors and to assess the mediating role of ecological beliefs on energy-efficient appliance purchasing. This study utilised a questionnaire survey among 592 Malaysian consumers. The partial least squares technique was utilised to analyse the data and to test the study hypotheses. The findings show that environmental factors have a positive influence on both ecological beliefs and ecological behaviour; ecological beliefs are positively related to ecological behaviour. Additionally, ecological beliefs mediate the relationship between environmental factors and ecological behaviour. This holistic research framework helps to elaborate on the existing knowledge of environmental factors and an individual’s belief, in the context of energy-efficient appliance purchase.

Banking industry is becoming more competitive due to escalating bank branches every year. It has been recorded that one of the industries with highest rate of turnover is financial service sector. Employee turnover is contributed by demanding working atmosphere and burdensome workloads. High turnover rate can adversely influence bank’s performance and productivity. It has been exhibited in previous studies concerning association between human resource practices and turnover intention and the role of organisational commitment as a mediator between human resource practices and turnover intention. A total of 283 questionnaires were distributed to bank employees in Kuching, Sarawak, Malaysia. Data analysis disclosed that there is a negative relationship between human resource practices and turnover intention and organisational commitment mediates the associations. The results of the study revealed the importance of bank employers to improve its current human resource practices for boosting organisational commitment and lowering employee turnover intention. Originality/ value of this research study lies on its contribution as the first field study to be performed in Sarawak, Malaysia in relations to human resource practices on turnover intention among bank employees with mediating role of organisational commitment.

The purpose of this paper was to explore the relationship between the characteristics of the chief executive officer (CEO) and corporate social responsibility (CSR) of banks operating in the Middle East and North African (MENA) countries. The study hypotheses was tested using a multiple linear regression model by examining data from a sample of 97 Islamic banks operating in the MENA region between 2015 and 2019. The results were robustly checked and the findings indicated that both CEO’s overconfidence, experience and education appear to have a significantly positive effect on the CSR disclosure. Furthermore, the results of multiple linear regressions showed that older CEO’s have a negative and significant impact on the level of CSR disclosure. This research bridges the gap between theory and practice in many aspects. Thus, although a substantial volume of research has examined sustainable advantage, one vital aspect of CSR has been largely unexplored. This study fills this void in the literature, namely the interaction between CEO’s characteristics and CSR disclosure. An explicit CSR disclosure may improve social well-being in emerging markets.

This study was aimed at assessing the moderating effects of state ownership and chief executive officer (CEO) duality on the relationship between internationalisation and the performance of listed firms in the Hanoi Stock Exchange (HNX). A detailed panel data set of listed firms between 2009 and 2018 was analysed and the ordinary least squares (OLS) results revealed that the performance of high internationalising firms with high state ownership was higher than that of those with low or non-state ownership. In contrast, the performance of high internationalising firms governed by CEO duality was lower than that of those without duality. The findings integrate the arguments of the resource-based view and the Uppsala model applied in the transition economy that suggest internationalising listed firms acquire certain benefits from the state, and the separation of the highest two positions in such firms facilitates the exact anticipation of uncertainties and risks in making business decisions.

Subsidiaries are important in the global strategy of multinational enterprises (MNEs). However, in the face of uncertainty and competition, the decision to divest a subsidiary from a market becomes a critical decision for MNEs. This study suggests that the factors for divesting subsidiaries are related not only to the performance of the subsidiary but also to slack resources and sunk costs. It analysed 254 subsidiaries in Taiwan and found that the better the subsidiary’s performance is, the less it would decide to divest from the market. Additionally, it was found that the subsidiary with slack resources would be a moderating variable with a positive impact. In addition, the presence of sunk costs reinforces the positive effect of slack resources on the relationship between subsidiary performance and the non-divestment of the subsidiary. Overall, this study points to the significance of subsidiary performance on decision-making and explains the influence of slack resources and sunk costs.

This study analysed the mechanism to generate e-loyalty among customers through e-service quality regarding OFD (OFD) apps. It examined the indirect influence of e-service quality on e-loyalty through the mediation of e-trust and e-satisfaction of customers. The serial mediation approach was used to test the proposed model of the study. Data was obtained through a self-administered structured questionnaire filled by 261 respondents from north India. The model hypotheses were tested by applying variance-based partial least squares in software SmartPLS 3. All the results were found to be statistically significant, and all proposed hypotheses were accepted. The results revealed that e-service quality positively contributed to building e-loyalty among customers of OFD apps. Furthermore, the results of the mediation effect suggested that e-trust and e-satisfaction strengthened the relationship between e-service quality and customers’ e-loyalty and therefore, that restaurants using OFD apps should try to provide the best online services to build trust along with satisfaction among their customers to increase loyalty to their online platforms. Theoretical implications for scholars and practical implications for the marketer are discussed.

The aim of this paper was to explore the causal relationship between CO2 emissions, economic growth, electricity consumption, energy use, and urbanisation in Vietnam between 1982 and 2016 using the Vector Error Correction Model (VECM). In the short run, it has been empirically proven that GDP, electricity consumption, and energy use have significant and positive relationships with CO2 emissions in Vietnam. Results also indicated that electricity consumption and energy use are the main contributors to increase GDP while CO2 emissions and urban population negatively affect GDP. It was also found that GDP has a significant and negative impact on electricity consumption, but energy use positively affects electricity consumption in Vietnam. Further, urban population has a negative influence on energy use, while the latter has a positive relationship with urban population. In the long run, results showed that GDP per capita and energy use per capita have significant and positive influence on CO2 emissions in Vietnam while urban population contributes to reducing CO2 emissions. The results of the Johansen co-integration test showed that there is a long run relationship between CO2 emissions, economic growth, electricity consumption, energy use, and urbanisation. Results implied that economic growth should be considered by the Vietnamese government along with the target in environmental protection, and urbanisation should be carefully managed to achieve sustainable development in Vietnam.
{"title":"Effects of Economic Growth, Electricity Consumption, Energy Use, and Urbanisation on Carbon Dioxide Emissions in Vietnam","authors":"Anh Tru Nguyen","doi":"10.21315/aamj2023.28.1.12","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.21315/aamj2023.28.1.12","url":null,"abstract":"The aim of this paper was to explore the causal relationship between CO2 emissions, economic growth, electricity consumption, energy use, and urbanisation in Vietnam between 1982 and 2016 using the Vector Error Correction Model (VECM). In the short run, it has been empirically proven that GDP, electricity consumption, and energy use have significant and positive relationships with CO2 emissions in Vietnam. Results also indicated that electricity consumption and energy use are the main contributors to increase GDP while CO2 emissions and urban population negatively affect GDP. It was also found that GDP has a significant and negative impact on electricity consumption, but energy use positively affects electricity consumption in Vietnam. Further, urban population has a negative influence on energy use, while the latter has a positive relationship with urban population. In the long run, results showed that GDP per capita and energy use per capita have significant and positive influence on CO2 emissions in Vietnam while urban population contributes to reducing CO2 emissions. The results of the Johansen co-integration test showed that there is a long run relationship between CO2 emissions, economic growth, electricity consumption, energy use, and urbanisation. Results implied that economic growth should be considered by the Vietnamese government along with the target in environmental protection, and urbanisation should be carefully managed to achieve sustainable development in Vietnam.","PeriodicalId":44777,"journal":{"name":"Asian Academy of Management Journal","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47236396","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}
