The association between foreign direct investment (FDI) and stock market development (SMD) is very crucial given the role of liquidity in the SMD process. However, this association can be affected by regulatory quality. Through the Calderon-Rossell model, this article explored the direct and conditional effects of FDI on SMD in five sub-Saharan African countries (Ghana, Mauritius, Namibia, Nigeria and South Africa) from 1996 to 2020. Regulatory quality was used as a moderator of the association between FDI and SMD. The pooled mean group strategy of the panel Auto Regressive Distributed Lag was implemented and findings suggested that FDI is positively and significantly related to SMD in the long-run. Furthermore, the conditional effect of regulatory quality on the association between FDI and SMD could not be established. This article has policy implications and contributed to the Calderon-Rossell model theoretical debate that liquidity improves SMD.

Talent Management (TM) has been derived from Western, mainly the US and there are gaps between westernized TM format and contexts of non-Western countries when they practice Western-format TM. Therefore, this article aims to explore South Korean-style local TM practices through a view of Resource-Based View. The local practices are also compared to foreign firms in South Korea in four areas: talent identification via performance evaluation system, South Korean style payment structure to include performance-related pay dispersion, non-monetary rewarding and training and development. This article conducted 55 semi-structured interviews from employees who are working for local and foreign companies in South Korea. TM practices in large local firms were more discriminative, and monetary focused rewards than foreign firms. Talent development programmes (e.g., a job rotation) were not practiced in local firms but in foreign firms. The TM practices are influenced by the local context and the traditional human resource management philosophies.

Electricity from national grids remain the most reliable and affordable source of power to many households globally. However, in Ghana, the supply of electricity from the national grid to households is generally unstable with residential electricity tariff skyrocketing. Consumers are unable to quantify the amount of electricity purchased in kwh/month in order to appreciate the tariff band they belong to. The billing authorities only account for the approximate unit (kwh/month) for the nearest cedi spent on electricity. The run-offs lead to over/under-billing of consumers for electricity purchased and, thus, derail the agenda of efficient energy management. Given this background, we proceeded to investigate households’ electricity consumption by first, estimating the exact consumption units of electricity for any amount of electricity power purchased. Subsequently, we explored factors that affected households’ electricity consumption in Ghana. We relied on 8,599 households’ data captured in the Ghana Living Standard Survey 7. The method of maximum likelihood estimation was used to estimate a multiple regression model fitted to the monthly electricity consumption data. The results showed that the fewer are alternative sources of electricity available to households, the greater is the consumption of electricity by the households. Other significant variables found were number of rooms in a household, area (m2) of the house, number of people in the house, categories of tariff bands and number of electrical appliances in use. These variables showed positive relationship with the natural log of the estimated electricity consumed per month for any household.

Considering uneven access to bank finances, our study empirically examines the asymmetrical contribution of the large and small exporters to India’s export growth. Employing the panel threshold model of Hansen (1999) , our study examines the relative role of packing credit (PC), short-term bank loans (BLs) and other alternate bank finances on export growth considering the period from 2002–2003 to 2018–2019. We conclude that though all the bank finances, the relative importance of the PC is more conducive than the others in terms of India’s export growth. Interestingly, our non-linear estimation shows that not only the small exporters are more sensitive to the usage of PC, but are more dependent on other alternate bank credits. On the contrary, the large exporters significantly rely only on the usage of subsidized PC and do not depend on other alternate bank credits. We conclude with a skewed preference for lending practices of the banking sector the benefits from such an export promotion scheme might remain unachieved on a broader scale.

Merely satisfying the customers is not enough; delighting them by offering unexpected, innovative and surprising services has become crucial. For this, firms invest in several channels and attract delighted customers. The current research examines the impact of Omni-channel customer delight on customers’ repurchase intention. The proposed conceptual model develops several hypotheses relating to customer delight in the Omni-channel context by reviewing rich literature on customer delight. Data were collected from 496 respondents using convenience sampling, representing 24 states of India. Using Smart PLS software, collected data were examined through structural equation modelling. Surprise and joy are crucial to offline customer delight, while satisfaction, usefulness and entertainment play significant roles in online customer delight. Also, Omni-channel customer delight significantly influences repurchase intentions; therefore, paying attention to all antecedents of customer delight is essential. The research provides a basic understanding of customer delight in Omni-channel contexts and offers directions to formulate various strategies to delight customers beyond satisfaction. The article adds value to existing knowledge relating to Omni-channel retailing. Omni-channel customer delight is undoubtedly an emerging research domain in the current Omni-channel retailing.

Using unique propositions of systems and peoples approaches, this study aims to examine the tensegrity of internal control system, board’s ability and corporate governance practices (CGPs) by evaluating the impact of CGPs on the internal control system and the board of directors’ ability to manage and steer a company in an efficient manner. We analyse the moderation effect of the internal control system on the relationship between CGPs and board’s ability. We used confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and structural equation modelling (SEM) to place evidence highlighting the impact of CGPs on the internal control system and board’s ability. The variables used were tested for endogeneity and the results found to be robust. The statistical strength of CGPs on internal control systems is found to be greater than the board’s ability. We documented that robust internal control system facilitates CG practices to improve the abilities of the board to attain corporate excellence by moderating the later variables by the former one. Our findings infer CG practices gives rise to a dynamic internal control system resulting in a better risk mitigation and reliable financial reporting and monitoring by the company’s agents, that is, the board of directors.

This study examines the impact of mobile shopping adoption drivers on the attitude towards mobile shopping apps and mobile shopping loyalty. Furthermore, the mediating role of attitude as well as the moderated mediation role of national culture (i.e., uncertainty avoidance and collectivism) will be examined. Adopting the stimulus–organism–response model in a mobile shopping context, a survey of 250 participants was conducted. AMOS and Hayes’s PROCESS macro were used to test the mediation and the moderated mediation. Findings show that adoption’s drivers have a positive relationship with the attitude towards mobile shopping and loyalty. It also emphasizes the mediating effect of attitude and moderated mediation effects of culture. Originality of this study stems from that it is one of the very few that attempts to examine the attitude towards mobile shopping as a mediator in the relationships between mobile shopping adoption drivers and mobile shopping loyalty. It also highlights the moderated mediation effects of both uncertainty avoidance and collectivism in these relationships, which were also largely ignored in previous research.

Mobile payment services (MPS) are gaining popularity and growth as innovative methods of payment. However, still due to pro-innovation bias, less attention has been given of barriers to innovation as compared to the adoption of the technology. The current research focuses on the various users’ barriers to MPS adoption intentions (AIs). The study established a research model supported by the extended innovation resistance theory, including information barriers (InfBs), lack of facilitating conditions and lack of perceived novelty (LPN). A total of 357 valid questionnaires were collected from MPS non-users and hypotheses were tested via structural equation modelling and artificial neural network. The research findings indicate that usage barriers, value barriers, InfBs, unavailability of facilitating circumstances and LPN adversely affect MPS AIs. This research has several practical and theoretical implications to build strategies to overcome barriers in the adoption of MPS.

Despite various efforts in management studies, the literature has neglected to explore the strategic use of public language, defined as the external communication by the CEO, in entrepreneurial settings. This study hypothesizes that entrepreneurial strategic intent leads to the intended clarity to achieve the desired business goals on a theoretical basis of upper echelons theory, sense-making and active audience theory. The analytical procedure included linguistic analysis for readability and simplicity of the public language of Tesla and four other incumbents based on the corpus spoken by CEOs under official settings. The findings reveal that Tesla’s CEO delivered intended clarity, delivering the most comprehensible information to the stakeholders, as hypothesized in the research design. This article contributes to the literature by suggesting a novel S-P-I model that investigates the ‘Strategic intent– Public language–Intended clarity’ flow. Managerial implications advise organizations adequately manage their public language to have desired results.

The current digital trend is to source funds for commercial or non-commercial purposes using online crowdfunding. In this study, we apply the theory of planned behaviour to study its effect on the funder’s intention to donate. We explore the impact of attitude, subjective norms and perceived behavioural control on a funder’s donation intention. We also study the effect of trust on a funder’s intention to donate moderated by herding bias. The study conducted a survey on Indian crowdfunders using a 5-point Likert Scale through a structured questionnaire. Structural equation modelling was used to analyse the results. The findings of the study reveal that all the identified constructs, namely attitude, subjective norms, perceived behavioural control and trust, significantly affect the funder’s intention to donate in donation crowdfunding campaigns. Moreover, herding bias significantly and positively moderates the relationship between trust and the funder’s intention to donate.
