Small and marginal farmers (SMFs) in developing countries, perennially struggle with low marketable surplus, inadequate storage facilities, poor market access and logistical constraints that in turn leave them with distressed sales of their produce to exploitative middlemen in the agricultural supply chain. Addressing such pressing concerns, the present study aims at proposing a market-facilitating demand-centric agricultural supply chain model where the income of the farmers is directly linked with risk-adjusted actual market movement. The price-sensitive model, being a facilitator for direct marketing, makes farm produce marketable by designing a cost-effective and scientifically managed shared warehouse, and minimizing market volatility risk through diversification among a group of contributing farmers. Empirical validation of this simulation-based modelling was tested on three essential year-round food staples – Tomato, Onion and Potato (TOP) – against the prevailing market settings. Interestingly, instead of immediately selling agricultural produce to market intermediaries due to a lack of storage options, if farmers shared the associated storage cost among themselves and distributed the market returns by proportionate crop sales to fulfil the demand, they could not only realize better returns during the season but also could turn off-season market unpredictability into their favour. The model is focused on enhancing SMFs’ income in the emerging economy context, and its empirical approach for risk minimization strategy is indeed proposed for the first time in the available literature. The finding, demonstrably, substantiates that the policy implication of the proposed model for SMFs in the fruits and vegetables (F&V) segment could improve market access and derive fair returns.

The purpose of this research is to investigate the asymmetric link between corruption and foreign direct investment (FDI). The article examines the literature to assess the impact of corruption on FDI attractiveness using bibliometric and content analysis based on 148 articles from Scopus database for a period of 24 years (1999–2022). The findings reveal that research on the theme has grown a lot in terms of publications. The geographical focus of the literature has been on developing economies as compared to developed economies. It has also been observed that majority of research contribution has been made by developed nations. The findings indicate that the impact of corruption on FDI differs on the basis of development level of economies. The foreign market attractiveness and corruption distance also influences the flow of foreign capital in bilateral trade. The study intends to contribute positively to the understanding of association of corruption with FDI, by analysing the existing literature, the most significant works, authors, journals and the emerging topics of concern on the theme.

In recent times, both developing and developed countries have witnessed the existence of the informal economy along with its formal counterpart, and India is not an exception. The informal sector is significant to the Indian economy in terms of its contribution to GDP and employment generation. Therefore, evaluating the performance of this sector is important in terms of the growth of the Indian economy for further policy formulation. This study is purported to examine the performance of the informal enterprises in the Indian economy. The performance of informal enterprises is examined across a variety of factors, including ownership type, location, sector, enterprise type, and so on, to get a more complete picture. In addition, it is also analysing the determining factors of informal firm performance, paying particular attention to the outsourcing or subcontracting of the informal firms in all the subsegments. The study has used ordinary least squares (OLS) regression to examine the determining factors. For the empirical analysis, it has used National Sample Survey 73rd Round (2015–2016) microdata on unincorporated non-agricultural enterprises. The results show that urban informal enterprises are performing well compared to their rural counterparts, though inter and intra-sectoral heterogeneity has been observed across ownership type, location, sector, and enterprise type. It is also noticed that formal–informal interlinkage in terms of subcontracting is mostly exploitative in nature, with only a tiny portion of the informal enterprises benefiting from it. Subcontracting has a negative impact on the performance of rural enterprises, but it has a mixed effect on the performance of urban informal firms.

The advent of social media as a marketing tool has transformed how businesses connect and share information about their brands with their consumers. Amplified consumer engagement has created novel relationships between consumers and companies. People’s reliance on seeking information from other online users and reviews has increased, and this is where social media influencers play an important role in shaping consumers’ opinions. Augmented reality will revolutionize the influencer marketing environment due to its ability to engage consumers. This research involved an online survey with questions established on a 7-point Likert scale. Later, exploratory factor analysis was used to summarize data better to understand associations between dependent and independent variables. Later principal component analysis was espoused for the extraction process. Varimax rotation congregated 39 items into various factors. The Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) test was administered to justify the adequacy of the sample.. The findings suggest that augmented reality moderates user engagement and is the future of influencer marketing.

The emergence of digital technologies has significantly transformed the workplace by enhancing productivity and improving employee wellbeing. One of the latest technological advancements in the workplace is the metaverse, which has tremendous potential to facilitate collaboration in virtual teams. In this study, we conducted a comprehensive bibliometric analysis to identify core research themes on applying metaverse in the workplace. Our findings reveal core themes, including an avatar, computer graphics, immersion, virtual world and virtual reality. We also developed a theoretical and conceptual framework to define a metaverse in the workplace, which includes individual, team and organizational factors as well as contextual moderators that influence its implementation. Finally, we propose a definition of a metaverse in the workplace as a 3D virtual immersive environment where employees interact with each other using their avatar identities, perform work tasks, and have autonomy and opportunities for creativity. Our study contributes to the growing body of research on the practical applications of a metaverse in the workplace. It highlights the importance of considering various factors for its successful implementation.

Green finance has evolved as a concept aiming to integrate environmental protection and economic profits. Growing global concern towards climate change, greenhouse gas emissions, industrial pollution control, waste management, and environmental protection has caught the attention of countries and policymakers towards innovative financial products and services that are used to address a broader range of environmental concerns. Financial instruments such as green bonds, green stocks and loans effectively guide capital investment towards environment-friendly projects and promote the United Nations’ sustainable development goals. Thus, green finance is considered a compelling concept that plays a vital role in promoting sustainability. The authors used the Scopus database to perform a bibliometric review of green finance from 2001 to 2022 to determine the current trend and progress in the field. The article presents a thorough bibliometric and temporal analysis that provides inputs that other researchers on this topic have not evaluated. VoS Viewer and Biblioshiny. The software was used to visually analyse the data and identify patterns of co-occurrences and prominent research themes. The graphical and systematic mapping illustrates the evolution in publications over time and identifies areas of current research interests. The findings show that the research on green finance has gained momentum from 2014 onwards. The analysis provides a comprehensive overview of the green finance-related research, which will help the researchers and policymakers to examine better the trends and future direction of the development of green finance.

The notion of happiness is in the limelight since the word ‘happiness’ is placed on the global development agenda. Happiness has dragged the attention of many researchers in various fields but when we talk about organizations only a few researchers are shedding the light on the concept of Workplace Happiness (WPH). Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) is one of the flourishing sectors of India. The literature reported that BPO employees are facing psychological and physical problems due to prolonged working hours and odd shift timings. And this is a matter of concern for every Business Process Outsourcing Organizations (BPOs). Here, certain questions are developed like; what parameters are being used to measure the WPH in BPOs, and how WPH can be measured. Therefore, this article is designed to explore WPH in the context of BPOs of Eastern India.

The belief of individuals and access to useful, affordable financial resources by small and medium businesses, especially to manage their finances to improve their financial condition, is limited. This study investigates the impact of financial inclusion on the financial condition of small and medium enterprises in south-west Nigeria through financial self-efficacy and financial literacy. This study employs the purposive sampling technique to employ a quantitative method on the active population of registered small and medium-scale enterprises (SMEs). Two statistical software were used; statistical package for social sciences and structural equation modelling to test the mediating effect of financial self-efficacy and financial literacy on relationship between financial inclusion and financial capability of SMEs. The component effectively measures all its constructs with the confirmatory factor analysis measure. Based on the structural model, financial inclusion directly and indirectly through financial self-efficacy and financial literacy positively influences financial capability. This shows that financial inclusion amplifies the financial condition of SMEs in south-west part of Nigeria. It was recommended that managers of the firms should encourage and implement suitable and appropriate financial inclusion strategies to enhance financial conditions. Likewise, management of the SMEs when making decision on the product and service offered should strategically create thoughtful ideals that will increase their ability to manage their financial condition through financial self-efficacy and literacy. However, it was suggested that similar studies be conducted in other sectors of the economy.

As organizations strive to engage and retain the younger generations, the increasing growth of the younger workforce as a percentage of the organizational workforce has inadvertently created difficulty in integrating them with the older workforce. With younger employees embracing significantly different values and expectations than the older workforce, organizations are increasingly working to promote corporate entrepreneurship as a potential means of engaging them. Nonetheless, we lack clarity on how the corporate entrepreneurship environment enables organizations to engage the younger workforce is unexplored. Therefore, this study uses the mixed method approach to explore the relationship between the corporate entrepreneurship environment and younger workforce engagement. Adopting a qualitative research design, we conducted semi-structured interviews with six chief people officers and four middle-level human resource managers from six different organizations in India. The findings revealed key themes, including (a) top management support, (b) work discretion, (c) rewards and younger workforce engagement, (d) time availability, and (e) organizational boundaries. We followed up with the survey research conducted on 120 younger employees to examine the hypothesized relationship. The findings indicate a direct relationship between corporate entrepreneurship environment dimensions and young workforce engagement. The study adds to the literature on younger employee engagement by explaining the critical role of corporate entrepreneurship environment dimensions as a driver of younger workforce engagement. An improved understanding of the expectations of the younger workforce will assist organizations in designing work and creating organizational environments that are more likely to engage the younger workforce.

The present study explores the impact of COVID-19 on the volatility structure of the sectoral market in India. ARMA(p,q)- GJR-GARCH(1, 1)-std model is used to determine the daily conditional volatility for 13 selected sectors over the period starting from January 2020 to December 2021. The quantile regression model is employed to examine the changes in the structure of volatility in each sector over the pandemic duration. The results of the study show that the volatility of Metal, Oil–Gas and PSU are more sensitive to market volatility, whereas the volume of new COVID-19 cases exceeds the threshold limit, and no extreme spillover is observed from the market volatility. In addition to this, Bankex, Metal, Oil–Gas, Private Banks and Power sector volatility are more responsive to news sentiments during the period of increase in new COVID-19 cases. Furthermore, the results also reveal that news sentiments help to control the significant fluctuation in the sectoral market.

ARMA(p,q)- GJR-GARCH(1, 1)-std model is used to determine the daily conditional volatility for 13 selected sectors over the period starting from January 2020 to December 2021. The quantile regression model is employed to examine the changes in the structure of volatility in each sector over the pandemic duration. The results of the study show that the volatility of Metal, Oil–Gas and PSU are more sensitive to market volatility, whereas the volume of new COVID-19 cases exceeds the threshold limit, and no extreme spillover is observed from the market volatility. In addition to this, Bankex, Metal, Oil–Gas, Private Banks and Power sector volatility are more responsive to news sentiments during the period of increase in new COVID-19 cases. Furthermore, the results also reveal that news sentiments help to control the significant fluctuation in the sectoral market.","PeriodicalId":44860,"journal":{"name":"Vision-The Journal of Business Perspective","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2023-05-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77370766","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}
