This research aims to determine the role of women in managing household accounting in the Minangkabau matrilineal system. This research method uses qualitative methods. This qualitative research was designed using a phenomenological approach. The research location is at Pasar Raya Padang, Padang City, West Sumatra. The informants in this research were 10 "manggaleh mudo" housewives who were married and had children along with 2 traditional community leaders who came from the Padang nagari (KAN) traditional density. The instrument used by researchers for informants is interviews. This research uses a purposive sampling technique to determine informants. The data source is primary data. Data were collected using semi-structured interviews with informants until all the information required by the researcher was met. Data analysis techniques use the Miles and Huberman model, namely data reduction, data display, and conclusion, drawing, verification. The research results found that nowadays, apart from economic factors, Minangkabau women are encouraged to "manggaleh mudo" to participate in helping their husbands with their household finances. Another factor is to improve the quality of the family by improving their children's education, saving for old age, wanting to make a contribution to their hometown, neighbors and close relatives, to leave an inheritance for their children and grandchildren. The contribution of the mother's "manggaleh mudo" income to the household economy is greater than the husband's income. But in reality, according to the recognition of all Minangkabau people, the income of a wife or mother from "menggaleh mudo" is only as additional income, not as the main income. From a budgeting perspective, we can see that Minangkabau women budget with the aim of ensuring peace in old age, social prestige, and providing services to family members. From a recording perspective, Minangkabau women always pay attention to time and use it effectively and efficiently and will never waste time in vain. So many of them do not have time to record their household finances in writing but rather verbally. However, there are also some of them who apply record keeping because Minangkabau women have a tenacious nature, are hard workers and are always optimistic. In terms of decision making, the Minangkabau people highly value "consensus" with their husband
本研究旨在确定米南卡保母系制度中妇女在管理家庭会计方面的作用。本研究采用定性研究方法。定性研究采用现象学方法。研究地点位于西苏门答腊省巴东市的 Pasar Raya Padang。本研究的信息提供者是 10 位已婚已育的 "manggaleh mudo "家庭主妇,以及 2 位来自巴东纳加里(KAN)传统密度的传统社区领袖。研究人员使用的工具是访谈。本研究采用目的性抽样技术来确定信息提供者。数据来源是原始数据。研究人员采用半结构化访谈的方式收集数据,直至满足研究人员所需的所有信息。数据分析技术采用迈尔斯和休伯曼模型,即数据还原、数据展示和结论、得出、验证。研究结果发现,除了经济因素外,如今米南卡保妇女被鼓励 "manggaleh mudo",参与帮助丈夫处理家庭财务。另一个因素是通过改善子女教育、储蓄养老金、希望为家乡、邻居和近亲做出贡献、为子孙留下遗产等方式提高家庭质量。母亲的 "manggaleh mudo "收入对家庭经济的贡献大于丈夫的收入。但实际上,根据所有米南卡保人的认识,妻子或母亲的 "menggaleh mudo "收入只是额外收入,而不是主要收入。从预算的角度看,我们可以发现米南卡保妇女的预算目的是确保晚年生活安宁、社会声望和为家庭成员提供服务。从记录的角度看,米南卡保妇女总是很重视时间,并有效和高效地利用时间,绝不会白白浪费时间。因此,她们中的许多人没有时间以书面形式记录家庭财务状况,而是以口头形式记录。不过,也有一些米南卡保妇女会进行记录,因为米南卡保妇女天性坚韧、勤劳,而且总是很乐观。在决策方面,米南卡保人非常重视与丈夫达成 "共识"。

Financial inclusion, characterized by access and usage of formal financial services, is a critical driver of economic development and poverty reduction. In Nigeria, a country with a large population of unbanked and underbanked individuals, adoption of Digital Financial Services (DFS) presents a promising avenue for expanding financial inclusion among low- income households. This study focused on evaluating the effectiveness of DFS for promoting financial inclusion among low-income households in Jigawa State, North-West Nigeria. Using a mixed-methods research approach, this study comprehensively assessed the impact of DFS on financial inclusion indicators. The research draws from a representative sample of low- income households in Jigawa State, examining utilization of DFS platforms, perceptions of the benefits and challenges associated with these services. Findings indicate notable increase in financial inclusion among low-income households in Jigawa State following the introduction of DFS. Factors contributing to this positive trend include improved convenience, reduced transaction costs, and increased financial literacy. However, challenges related to digital literacy (complexity) and trust in digital platforms (perceived risk) persist and need to be addressed to maximize the impact of DFS. This research contributes to the ongoing discourse on financial inclusion and digital financial services by providing empirical insights specific to the Jigawa State context. The outcomes of this study are expected to inform policymakers, financial institutions, and DFS providers on strategies for further enhancing the reach and effectiveness of digital financial services in promoting financial inclusion among low-income households not only in Jigawa State but also in similar regions across Nigeria and beyond.

This study was purposed to investigate the causes of tax evasion and avoidance and its effect on the Zambian economy in Chililabombwe District of the Copperbelt Province. It had two-fold objectives: to examine the causes of tax evasion and avoidance in Chililabombwe District by SMEs, and to determine the effect of tax evasion and avoidance in Chililabombwe District on the Zambian economy. The study used a mixed method approach combining both qualitative and quantitative paradigms in which 110 sample size was targeted. One Hundred and ten (110) questionnaires were distributed and 79 were returned representing 72%. Purposive and convenient sampling techniques were used. Quantitative data was analysed through the SPSS version 16 while qualitative data was analysed through content analysis focusing on main unfolding themes from the interviews. The study discovered that that there are loopholes in the Zambia Revenue Authority's (ZRA) tax administration system which are due to inefficiencies or inadequate competence of tax collectors, which taxpayers exploit in evading and avoiding tax. The investigation also revealed that on account of the established loopholes, certain revenue collectors collude with taxpayers to commit tax fraud by accepting bribes from them while poor sales, high tax rates, and lack of tax education to SMEs were noted to be among key reasons for tax avoidance. Consequently, the study ascertained with concern that the levels of development in the district, in terms of social amenities, schools, road network, and youth / women empowerment programmes are very low. The study concluded that tax evasion and avoidance were real and rife among the SMEs on account of the factors cited and that mitigative policy measures were required without any further delays. Arising from the results of the study, it was strongly recommended that for tax evasion and avoidance to be mitigated, the revenue authority needs to urgently reform the tax system to make it equitable and fair coupled with rigorous tax education to the traders for sufficient tax knowledge and thereafter digitize tax remittances with ease for the traders to file returns without need for middle persons. Tax morale and ultimately revenue collection can be improved through tax education programs, integrity of tax collectors, and reduction of tax rates chargeable to SMEs. Enhanced training and sensitization to create awareness, reduce compliance cost, and simplify online technology for the overall positive impact on compliance among the SMEs are elements of paramount import for the success of the nation in meeting its socio-economic goals through guaranteed revenue collections by the Revenue House.

The participation of foreign investors in a country's securities market plays a crucial role in the growth of any country. Kenya has continued to experience volatility of foreign investor flows leading to instability in the financial market. The study aimed to identify the macroeconomic determinants, which have a significant effect on foreign investor participation in Kenya. Secondary monthly data for the period January 2020 to December 2023 was extracted from the Central Bank of Kenya, Capital Markets Authority, and Kenya National Bureau of Statistics. The multiple regression model with the assistance of SPSS software was employed to analyze data. Findings revealed that the inflation rate, exchange rate, and GDP growth rate had a negative and statistically significant effect on the participation of foreign investors as illustrated by P-values of 0.001, 0.032, and 0.05 respectively, which are less than 0.05. The results inferred that the inflation rate, exchange rate, and GDP growth rate affect the participation of foreign investors at the Nairobi Securities Exchange. Interest rate as measured by the 365-day Treasury bill rate had a positive and statistically insignificant effect on the participation of foreign investors as presented by a P-value of 0.107. The results implied that changes in Treasury bill rates do not affect the participation of foreign investors at the Nairobi Securities Exchange. The notable fluctuations in currency rates and their volatility, along with the impact of inflation on foreign portfolio inflows, underscore the crucial role played by monetary policy. This should be accomplished by stabilizing the value of the Kenyan shilling. Maintaining the stability of the value of the shilling is crucial to boosting the participation of foreign investors.

The growth of the financial derivatives market has been identified as a significant channel to drive the overall growth of the capital market, and the development of capital market efficiency has been widely regarded as crucial. The performance of derivatives in Kenya has been fluctuating causing uncertainty in the market. The study analyzed the performance of the Nairobi Securities Exchange Derivatives Market in Kenya since its establishment in July 2019. The study draws on secondary data from the Capital Markets Authority and Nairobi Securities Exchange from July 2019 to December 2023. Descriptive statistics was adopted for data analysis with the help of SPSS software. Findings indicated that Safaricom Plc has been active and the best-performing company in trading single futures derivatives contracts at NEXT with the highest total turnover in Kenya shillings. The other companies that followed Safaricom closely were Equity Group Holdings and Kenya Commercial Bank. The overall performance of other companies in terms of derivatives contracts traded over the years has been fluctuating. Overall, the NEXT has made many strides in terms of derivatives trading in Kenya. The securities market regulators need to encourage all listed companies to participate in the Nairobi Securities Exchange Derivatives market to increase options available at the market and improve the Country’s economy.

Government borrowing has emerged as one significant method that helps in mobilization of resources for economic growth especially in emerging economics. Most governments in developing economies resort to borrowing as a way of financing budget deficit. This paper identifies the effects of government borrowing to investment growth in the Philippines. Specifically, it presented the trend of gross domestic product, internal debt, and external debt from 1990-2020. The study used Johansen Co-integration, Granger Causality, and Vector Autoregression (VAR) models to analyze this study. Johansen’s Co-integration analysis revealed that the gross domestic product (GDP), internal debt (ID), and external debt (ED) are rejected at a 5% significant level and showing that all relevant variables have a long-term relationship and the data are co-integrated. On the other hand, unrestricted VAR model, there exist a relationship between gross domestic product (GDP), internal debt (ID), and external debt (ED). The Granger Causality test result revealed the direction of the causal relationship between independent and dependent variables; gross domestic product, internal debt, and external debt at the 5% significant level.
政府借贷已成为一种重要方法,有助于为经济增长调动资源,尤其是在新兴经济国家。发展中经济体的大多数政府都将借贷作为弥补预算赤字的一种方式。本文探讨了政府借贷对菲律宾投资增长的影响。具体而言,本文介绍了 1990-2020 年间国内生产总值、内债和外债的变化趋势。本研究采用约翰森协整、格兰杰因果关系和向量自回归模型进行分析。约翰森协整分析表明,国内生产总值(GDP)、内债(ID)和外债(ED)在 5%的显著水平下被拒绝,表明所有相关变量具有长期关系,数据是协整的。另一方面,在非限制性 VAR 模型中,国内生产总值(GDP)、内债(ID)和外债(ED)之间存在关系。格兰杰因果检验结果表明,在 5%的显著水平上,自变量和因变量(国内生产总值、内债和外债)之间存在因果关系。

Most governments in developing economies resort to borrowing as a way of financing budget deficit. This paper identifies the effects of government borrowing to investment growth in the Philippines. Specifically, it presented the trend of gross domestic product, internal debt, and external debt from 1990-2020. The study used Johansen Co-integration, Granger Causality, and Vector Autoregression (VAR) models to analyze this study. Johansen’s Co-integration analysis revealed that the gross domestic product (GDP), internal debt (ID), and external debt (ED) are rejected at a 5% significant level and showing that all relevant variables have a long-term relationship and the data are co-integrated. On the other hand, unrestricted VAR model, there exist a relationship between gross domestic product (GDP), internal debt (ID), and external debt (ED).

Corporate reputation is one of the competitive advantage factors used by a company. This study aims to empirically examine the effect of institutional ownership on corporate reputation by considering profitability as a mediating variable. The research method used in this research is the quantitative research method. The sample of companies obtained was 86 companies with 246 observations. The data collection technique used is the documentation technique obtained from the websites www.idx.co.id and www.imacaward.com. The results showed that institutional ownership has a significant negative effect on profitability at the 5% level, profitability has no effect on corporate reputation, and institutional ownership has a significant positive impact on corporate reputation at the 10% level. Based on the three results of the analysis, profitability cannot mediate the effect of institutional ownership on corporate reputation.
