PurposeSuccessful digital transformation requires a change in organisational structures, processes, capabilities and competencies. Digital transformation research is more influenced by the technology adaptation model and hence focuses on people's attitudes, behaviour and abilities. Recently, employee agility has attracted attention in the context of technology adoption and Industry 4.0. The current research explores the relationship between employee agility and digital technology adoption in the context of digital transformation by adopting the systematic literature review method.Design/methodology/approachFollowing the attitude–ability-behaviour–outcome framework, the research explored the specific agile ability, attitude and behaviour characteristics useful for digital transformation. Following the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses (PRISMA) framework consisting of (1) initiation, (2) screening, (3) evaluation and (4) confirming inclusion (Ambika et al., 2023), the study identified 19 papers from SCOPUS indexed journals.FindingsThe study result found that agile attitude characteristics such as collaborative mindset, computer self-efficacy, ambiguity aversiveness, etc. are influencing the digital transformation process. Agile abilities like basic computer knowledge, previous technical experience, cognitive abilities, innovation capability, digital competence training and supporting proper knowledge management practices also influence digital transformation. Finally, agile behaviour such as relationship building, knowledge-sharing behaviour, promoting values of learning, risk-taking and experimenting, rewarding innovativeness and customer-centric innovation and displaying adaptability, resilience and commitment to change, etc. are found to drive digital transformation.Originality/valueResearch on workforce agility and digital transformation is scarce. The current study contributes to benchmarking research by exploring specific agile attitudes, abilities and behaviour characteristics relevant to digital transformation, especially in the era of Industry 4.0.
目的成功的数字化转型需要改变组织结构、流程、能力和权限。数字化转型研究更多地受到技术适应模式的影响,因此侧重于人们的态度、行为和能力。最近,在技术采用和工业 4.0 的背景下,员工敏捷性引起了人们的关注。本研究采用系统文献综述法,探讨了数字化转型背景下员工敏捷性与数字技术采用之间的关系。研究遵循态度-能力-行为-结果框架,探讨了对数字化转型有用的特定敏捷能力、态度和行为特征。按照系统综述和荟萃分析(PRISMA)的首选报告项目框架,包括(1)启动、(2)筛选、(3)评估和(4)确认纳入(Ambika et al.计算机基础知识、以往的技术经验、认知能力、创新能力、数字化能力培训和支持适当的知识管理实践等敏捷能力也会影响数字化转型。最后,建立关系、知识共享行为、倡导学习、冒险和实验的价值观、奖励创新和以客户为中心的创新以及表现出适应性、韧性和对变革的承诺等敏捷行为也被认为是推动数字化转型的因素。本研究通过探索与数字化转型(尤其是工业 4.0 时代)相关的特定敏捷态度、能力和行为特征,为基准研究做出了贡献。

PurposeThe existing literature reflects that the connection between enablers of Industry 4.0 (I4.0), Supply Chain (SC) sustainability and reliability is understudied. To cover this gap, the purpose of this study is to identify and benchmark the enablers of I4.0 for SC sustainability to build a Reliable Supply Chain (RSC).Design/methodology/approachThis study benchmarks the I4.0 enablers for SC sustainability for building a RSC and analyses them with a multi-method approach. The identified potential enablers are validated empirically. A multi-method approach of Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP), Decision Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (DEMATEL) and Preference Ranking for Organization Method for Enrichment Evaluation (PROMETHEE-II) was used to investigate the influence of the identified benchmarking enablers and develop an interrelationship diagram among the identified enablers.FindingsThis study benchmarks the potential enablers of I4.0 to achieve high ecological-economic-social gains in SCs considering the Indian scenario. Digitalization of the supply chain, decentralization, smart factory technologies and data security and handling are the most prominent enablers of I4.0 for SC sustainability to build a RSC.Originality/valueThe findings from the study may benefit managers, practitioners, specialists, researchers and policymakers interested in I4.0 sustainability applications.
目的现有文献表明,对工业 4.0(I4.0)、供应链(SC)可持续性和可靠性之间的联系研究不足。为弥补这一不足,本研究旨在确定并基准化工业 4.0 的促进因素,以促进供应链可持续性,从而构建可靠的供应链(RSC)。通过经验验证了已确定的潜在促进因素。分析层次过程(AHP)、决策制定试验和评估实验室(DEMATEL)和组织偏好排序法(PROMETHEE-II)等多种方法被用来研究已确定的基准促进因素的影响,并绘制已确定的促进因素之间的相互关系图。研究结果本研究根据印度的情况,确定了 I4.0 的潜在促进因素,以在自然生态系统中实现较高的生态、经济和社会效益。供应链数字化、权力下放、智能工厂技术以及数据安全和处理是 I4.0 促进自然生态系统可持续发展的最突出的推动因素,有助于建立一个可持续发展的自然生态系统。

PurposeSustainability is a major challenge for India’s (Bharat’s) coal mining industry. The government has prioritized sustainable growth in the coal mining industry. It is putting forth multifaceted economic, environmental and social efforts to accomplish the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). This research aims to identify the factors for sustainable improvements in coal mining operations. Secondly, this study examines the intensity of causal relations among the factors. Thirdly, this study examines whether causal relations exist among the factors to be considered for sustainable improvement in coal mining operations. Lastly, the study aims to understand how the factors ensure sustainable improvement in coal mining operations.Design/methodology/approachAn integrated three-phase methodology was applied to identify the critical factors related to coal mining and explore the contextual relationships among the identified factors. Fifteen critical factors were selected based on the Delphi technique. Subsequently, the fifteen factors were analyzed to determine the contextual and causal relationships using the total interpretive structural modelling (TISM) and DEMATEL methods.FindingsThe study identified “Extraction of Coal and Overburden” as the leading factor for sustainable improvement in coal mining operations, because it directly or indirectly influences the overall mining operation, environmental impact and resource utilization. Hence, strict control measures are necessary in “Extraction of Coal and Overburden” to ensure sustainable coal mining. Conversely, “Health Impact” is the lagging factor as it has very low or no impact on the system. Therefore, it requires fewer control mechanisms. Nevertheless, control measures for the remaining factors must be decided on a priority basis.Practical implicationsThe proposed structural model can serve as a framework for enhancing sustainability in India’s (Bharat’s) coal mining operations. This framework can also be applied to other developing nations with similar sustainability concerns, providing valuable guidance for sustainable operations.Originality/valueThe current study highlights the significance of logical links and dependencies between several parameters essential to coal mining sustainability. Furthermore, it leads to the development of a well-defined control sequence that identifies the causal linkages between numerous components needed to achieve real progress towards sustainability.
目的可持续性是印度(巴拉特)煤炭开采业面临的一大挑战。政府已将煤炭开采业的可持续增长列为优先事项。为实现可持续发展目标(SDGs),政府在经济、环境和社会方面做出了多方面的努力。本研究旨在确定煤炭开采业务可持续改进的因素。其次,本研究探讨了各因素之间因果关系的强度。第三,本研究探讨了煤炭开采业务可持续改进应考虑的因素之间是否存在因果关系。最后,本研究旨在了解这些因素如何确保煤炭开采业务的可持续改进。设计/方法/途径采用三阶段综合方法识别与煤炭开采相关的关键因素,并探讨已识别因素之间的背景关系。根据德尔菲技术筛选出 15 个关键因素。研究发现,"煤炭和覆岩的开采 "是煤炭开采作业可持续改进的首要因素,因为它直接或间接地影响着整个开采作业、环境影响和资源利用。因此,必须对 "煤炭和覆土的开采 "采取严格的控制措施,以确保煤炭开采的可持续发展。相反,"健康影响 "是滞后因素,因为它对系统的影响很小或没有影响。因此,它需要的控制机制较少。建议的结构模型可作为提高印度(巴拉特)煤炭开采业务可持续性的框架。本研究强调了煤炭开采可持续性所必需的几个参数之间的逻辑联系和依赖关系的重要性。此外,本研究还提出了一个定义明确的控制顺序,该顺序确定了实现可持续发展所需的众多组成部分之间的因果联系。

PurposeThis study aims to explore the dynamic interplay of key resources (i.e. research and development (R&D), advertising and exports) in affecting the performance of USA manufacturing firms. Specifically, the authors examine the dynamic impact of joint resources and predict differential effect scales contingent on firm capabilities.Design/methodology/approachThis study presents a combined multiple regression analysis (MRA)-multilayer perceptron (MLP) neural network modeling and investigates the complex interlinkage of capabilities, resources and performance. As an innovative approach, the MRA-MLP model investigates the effect of capabilities under the combinatory deployment of joint resources.FindingsThis study finds that the impact of joint resources and synergistic rents is not uniform but rather distinctive according to the combinatory conditions and that the pattern is further shaped by firm capabilities. Accordingly, besides signifying the contingent aspect of capabilities across a range of resource combinations, the result also shows that managerial sophistication in adaptive resource control is more than a managerial ethos.Practical implicationsThe proposed analytic process provides scientific decision support tools with control mechanisms with respect to deploying multiple resources and setting actionable goals, thereby presenting pragmatic benchmarking options to industry managers.Originality/valueUsing the theoretical underpinnings of the resource-based view (RBV) and resource orchestration, this study advances knowledge about the complex interaction of key resources by presenting a salient analytic process. The empirical design, which portrays holistic interaction patterns, adds to the uniqueness of this study of the complex interlinkages between capabilities, resources and shareholder value.
目的本研究旨在探讨关键资源(即研究与开发(R&D)、广告和出口)在影响美国制造业企业绩效方面的动态相互作用。具体而言,作者研究了联合资源的动态影响,并根据企业能力预测了不同的影响尺度。本研究采用多元回归分析(MRA)-多层感知器(MLP)相结合的神经网络模型,研究了能力、资源和绩效之间复杂的相互联系。作为一种创新方法,MRA-MLP 模型研究了联合资源组合部署下能力的影响。研究结果本研究发现,联合资源和协同租金的影响并不一致,而是根据组合条件的不同而各具特色,并且企业能力进一步塑造了这一模式。因此,除了表明能力在一系列资源组合中的偶然性之外,研究结果还表明,管理者在适应性资源控制方面的先进性不仅仅是一种管理理念。原创性/价值本研究以基于资源的观点(RBV)和资源协调为理论基础,通过提出一个突出的分析流程,增进了对关键资源复杂互动关系的了解。实证设计描绘了整体的互动模式,增加了本研究在能力、资源和股东价值之间复杂的相互联系方面的独特性。

PurposeInland shipping has been extensively recognised as a sustainable, efficient and good alternative to rail and road modes of transportation. In recent years, various authorities and academic researchers have advocated shifting from road to other sustainable modes like inland waterway transport (IWT) or rail transport. Academic work on modernisation and technological innovations to enhance the effectiveness and efficiency of waterborne transportation is becoming apparent as a growing body of literature caused by the need to achieve a sustainable transport system. Thus, it became apparent to explore the research trends on IWT.Design/methodology/approachA systematic and structured literature review study was employed in this paper to identify the challenges and concepts in modernising inland waterways for freight transportation. The review analysed 94 articles published in 54 journals from six well-known databases between 2010 and 2022.FindingsThe key findings of this review are that despite various challenges confronting the sector, there have been successful cases of technological advancement in the industry. The main interest among scholars is improving technical and economic performance, digitalisation, and safety and environmental issues. The review revealed that most of the literature is fragmented despite growing interest from practitioners and academic scholars. Academic research to address the strategic objectives, including strengthening competitiveness (shipbuilding, hydrodynamics, incorporating artificial intelligence into the decision-making process, adopting blockchain technology to ensure transparency and security in the transactions, new technologies for fleets adaptation to climate change, more effective handling, maintenance and rehabilitation technologies), matching growth and changing trade patterns (intermodal solutions and new logistics approaches) are major causes of concerns.Originality/valueBy employing the approach of reviewing previously available literature on IWT review papers, this review complements the existing body of literature in the field of IWT by providing in a single paper a consolidation of recent state-of-the-art research on technological developments and challenges for inland waterways freight transport in the intermodal supply chain that can act as a single resource to keep researchers up to date with the most recent advancements in research in the domain of inland waterway freight transport. Additionally, this review identified gaps in the literature that may inspire new research themes in the field of IWT.
目的内河航运被广泛认为是铁路和公路运输模式的一种可持续、高效和良好的替代方式。近年来,许多政府机构和学术研究人员都主张从公路运输转向其他可持续的运输方式,如内河水运(IWT)或铁路运输。为提高水路运输的效益和效率而进行的现代化和技术创新方面的学术研究工作正变得越来越明显,因为需要实现可持续的运输系统。因此,探索内河水运的研究趋势就显得尤为重要。本文采用了系统化和结构化的文献综述研究,以确定货运内河现代化所面临的挑战和概念。本综述分析了 2010 年至 2022 年期间在 6 个知名数据库的 54 种期刊上发表的 94 篇文章。学者们主要关注的是提高技术和经济绩效、数字化以及安全和环境问题。综述显示,尽管从业人员和学术学者的兴趣日益浓厚,但大多数文献都比较零散。针对战略目标的学术研究,包括加强竞争力(造船、流体力学、将人工智能纳入决策过程、采用区块链技术确保交易的透明度和安全性、船队适应气候变化的新技术、更有效的处理、维护和修复技术)、与增长和不断变化的贸易模式相匹配(多式联运解决方案和新的物流方法),是引起关注的主要原因。独创性/价值 本综述通过采用对以往有关内河货运综述论文的文献进行综述的方法,对内河货运领域的现有文献进行了补充,在一篇论文中汇总了有关多式联运供应链中内河货运技术发展和挑战的最新研究成果,可作为研究人员了解内河货运领域最新研究进展的单一资源。此外,本综述还发现了文献中的空白,这些空白可能会激发内河货运领域新的研究主题。

PurposeThis study investigated the relationship between last-mile distribution or delivery (LMD) and commodity access through the mediating role of commodity availability and commodity security and the moderating effect of supply chain integration (SCI).Design/methodology/approachThe study adopted the survey research design and employed the questionnaire instrument in collecting primary data from respondents in Eastern Regional Health Institutions in Ghana. The total number of valid responses received was 204. The partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) approach was adopted to analyze the relationship between the study variables.FindingsThe findings showed that there is a positive and significant relationship between LMD and commodity availability as well as LMD and commodity security. Moreover, while the relationship between commodity availability and commodity access is positive and significant, that between commodity security and commodity access is positive but insignificant. Furthermore, there is a positive and statistically significant relationship between LMD and commodity access. The study discovered that the interaction between LMD and commodity access is insignificant and negatively affected by SCI.Originality/valueTo the best of the authors' knowledge, no previous studies have empirically verified the effect of LMD on commodity access in the presence of mediating factors such as commodity availability and commodity security and SCI as the moderating factors.
目的 本研究通过商品供应和商品安全的中介作用以及供应链整合(SCI)的调节作用,调查了最后一英里配送或交付(LMD)与商品获取之间的关系。共收到有效答卷 204 份。研究结果表明,LMD 与商品供应以及 LMD 与商品安全之间存在显著的正相关关系。此外,虽然商品供应与商品获取之间的关系是正向的且显著,但商品安全与商品获取之间的关系是正向的但不显著。此外,LMD 与商品获取之间存在正向关系,且在统计上有意义。研究发现,LMD 与商品获取之间的交互作用不显著,且受 SCI 的负面影响。据作者所知,以往的研究尚未通过实证验证在存在商品可得性和商品安全等中介因素以及 SCI 作为调节因素的情况下,LMD 对商品获取的影响。

PurposeThis article aims at - exploring and prioritizing the barriers to adoption of digitization in supply chains (SCs), categorizing them into sustainability triple bottom line (STBL) based upon their direct impact and suggesting digital technologies to address each barrier.Design/methodology/approachA five-phase methodology is used which consists of an exploration of 44 barriers to the adoption of digitization in SCs, analysis of 44 barriers for mean, standard deviation and Cronbach alpha based on questionnaire-based feedback of 25 experts, extraction of 10 most significant barriers through 05 experts, followed by categorization of the barriers into STBL referring to their direct impact on STBL, prioritization of ten barriers using Fuzzy Technique for Order Performance by Similarity to Ideal Solution and recommendation of digital technologies to address each barrier.FindingsWhile all the barriers considered in this study significantly impede the adoption of digitization in SCs, lack of top management commitment (B1) is found to be most crucial while lack of culture toward use of information and communication technology required for digitization (B3) has minimum impact. Large investment in digital infrastructure (B6), difficulty in integration of cyber physical systems (CPSs) on varied platforms (B8) and lack of experts having knowledge of digital technologies (B2) are equally important barriers requiring more attention while adopting digitization in SCs.Research limitations/implicationsThis study is mainly based on feedback from 25 seasoned experts; a wider cross section of experts will give more insight.Practical implicationsThe outcomes are very significant for organizations looking to adopt digitization in their SCs. Simultaneous consideration to all the barriers becomes impractical hence prioritization of same will be useful for the SC managers to benchmark their preparedness and decide strategies for the adoption of digitization with due consideration toward the impact of barriers on STBL. The digital technologies recommended will further aid in planning the digital strategies to address each barrier.Originality/valueA unique approach to explore, analyze, prioritize and categorize the barriers to adoption of digitization in SCs is used to provide a deeper understanding of factors deterring the same. It implies that a supportive top management along with systematic allocation of finances plays a crucial role. The importance of availability of digital experts for integrating CPSs on a single platform is also highlighted. The digital technologies recommended will further assist the organizations toward adoption of digitization in SCs with due consideration to STBL.
目的 本文旨在探讨供应链(SC)中采用数字化的障碍并确定其优先次序,根据其直接影响将其归类为可持续发展三重底线(STBL),并提出解决每个障碍的数字技术建议。设计/方法/途径采用了五阶段方法,包括探索供应链采用数字化的 44 个障碍,根据 25 位专家的问卷反馈分析 44 个障碍的平均值、标准偏差和 Cronbach alpha,通过 05 位专家提取 10 个最重要的障碍,然后根据障碍对 STBL 的直接影响将其归类为 STBL,使用模糊技术根据与理想解决方案的相似度排列 10 个障碍的优先级,并建议采用数字技术解决每个障碍。研究结果虽然本研究中考虑的所有障碍都严重阻碍了自然科学部门采用数字化,但研究发现缺乏高层管理承诺(B1)最为关键,而缺乏使用数字化所需的信息和通信技术的文化(B3)影响最小。对数字基础设施的大量投资(B6)、在不同平台上整合网络物理系统(CPS)的困难(B8)以及缺乏具备数字技术知识的专家(B2)也是同样重要的障碍,需要在自然科学部门采用数字化时给予更多关注。同时考虑所有障碍是不切实际的,因此,对这些障碍进行优先排序将有助于自然科学部门的管理者为其准备情况制定基准,并在适当考虑障碍对 STBL 的影响的情况下,为采用数字化制定战略。建议采用的数字技术将进一步帮助规划数字战略,以解决每个障碍。原创性/价值采用独特的方法来探索、分析、优先排序和分类自然科学部门采用数字化的障碍,从而更深入地了解阻碍采用数字化的因素。这意味着,支持性的高层管理以及系统性的资金分配起着至关重要的作用。此外,还强调了数字专家在单一平台上整合 CPS 的重要性。建议采用的数字技术将进一步帮助各组织在适当考虑到 STBL 的情况下在自然科学部门采用数字化技术。

PurposeLean Six Sigma (LSS) implementation follows a structured approach called define-measure-analyze-improve-control (DMAIC). Earlier research about its application in emergency healthcare services shows that it requires organizational transformation, which many healthcare setups find difficult. The Kotter change management model facilitates organizational transformation but has not been attempted in LSS settings till now. This study aims to integrate the LSS framework with the Kotter change management model to come up with an integrated framework that will facilitate LSS deployment in emergency health services.Design/methodology/approachTwo-stage Delphi method was conducted by using a literature review. First, the success factors and barriers of LSS are investigated, especially from an emergency healthcare point of view. The features and benefits of Kotter's change management models are then reviewed. Subsequently, they are integrated to form a framework specific to LSS deployment in an emergency healthcare set-up. The elements of this framework are analyzed using expert opinion ratings. A new framework for LSS deployment in emergency healthcare has been developed, which can prevent failures due to challenges faced by organizations in overcoming resistance to changes.FindingsThe eight steps of the Kotter model such as establishing a sense of urgency, forming a powerful guiding coalition, creating a vision, communicating the vision, empowering others to act on the vision, planning for and creating short-term wins, consolidating improvements and producing still more change, institutionalizing new approaches are derived from the eight common errors that managers make while implementing change in the institution. The study integrated LSS principles and Kotter’s change management model to apply in emergency care units in order to reduce waste and raise the level of service quality provided by healthcare companies.Research limitations/implicationsThe present study could contribute knowledge to the literature by providing a framework to integrate lean management and Kotter's change management model for the emergency care unit of the healthcare organization. This framework guides decision-makers and organizations as proper strategies are required for applying lean management practices in any system.Originality/valueThe proposed framework is unique and no other study has prescribed any integrated framework for LSS implementation in emergency healthcare that overcomes resistance to change.
目的 精益六西格玛(LSS)的实施遵循一种结构化的方法,即定义-测量-分析-改进-控制(DMAIC)。早先有关其在急诊医疗服务中应用的研究表明,它需要组织转型,而许多医疗机构认为这很困难。科特(Kotter)变革管理模式有助于组织变革,但迄今为止尚未在 LSS 环境中尝试过。本研究旨在将 LSS 框架与科特变革管理模式相结合,提出一个有助于在紧急医疗服务中部署 LSS 的综合框架。首先,调查了 LSS 的成功因素和障碍,特别是从紧急医疗服务的角度进行调查。然后回顾了科特(Kotter)变革管理模式的特点和优势。随后,对这些模型进行整合,形成一个专门针对在急诊医疗机构部署生命支持系统的框架。利用专家意见评级对该框架的要素进行了分析。研究结果科特模型的八个步骤,如建立紧迫感、形成强大的指导联盟、创造愿景、沟通愿景、授权他人根据愿景采取行动、规划和创造短期胜利、巩固改进和产生更多变化、将新方法制度化,都是从管理者在机构中实施变革时常犯的八个错误中衍生出来的。本研究整合了精益管理原则和科特变革管理模式,并将其应用于急诊科,以减少浪费,提高医疗保健公司的服务质量水平。研究局限/影响本研究为医疗保健机构的急诊科提供了一个整合精益管理和科特变革管理模式的框架,从而为相关文献提供了知识。本框架可为决策者和组织提供指导,因为在任何系统中应用精益管理实践都需要适当的策略。原创性/价值本研究提出的框架是独一无二的,没有任何其他研究提出过在急诊医疗中实施精益管理和科特变革管理模式的综合框架,以克服变革阻力。

Do private and public sector banks respond to ESG in the same way? Some evidences from India 私营银行和公共部门银行对环境、社会和公司治理的回应方式相同吗?印度的一些证据
Pub Date : 2023-12-13 DOI: 10.1108/bij-05-2023-0340

PurposeThe banking industry faces increasing scrutiny from stakeholders regarding its environmental and social impacts, given its crucial role in fostering economic growth. Banks have been encouraged to adopt environmental, social and governance (ESG) practices to mitigate risks and safeguard their reputation. However, the effectiveness of ESG sensitivity within the banking industry is contingent upon ownership and structural factors. The extent to which banks can integrate ESG considerations into their operations and decision-making processes may vary based on their ownership structures. Therefore, this study aims to examine if the impact of ESG on the performance of Indian banks varies between private and public sector banks.Design/methodology/approachThe study employs six years of panel data from two separate samples of 12 private sector banks and 10 public sector banks in India. It utilises fixed and random effect estimation techniques with robust standard errors to derive accurate and reliable econometric results.FindingsThe main findings of this study reveal intriguing insights into the relationship between ESG factors and bank performance, considering the influence of ownership structure. For private sector banks, the ESG composite score, particularly the social dimension, negatively impacts financial performance. However, there is a contrasting positive effect on efficiency. In contrast, public sector banks demonstrate a positive and significant association between the environmental score and return on equity and non-performing assets.Practical implicationsThe findings highlight the need for tailored strategies that align with ownership structure to achieve sustainable financial and societal outcomes in the banking industry. Furthermore, it emphasises the need for private-sector banks to streamline their ESG initiatives, especially in the social dimension, to mitigate negative impacts on their financial performance.Originality/valueThis study introduces a novel dimension by addressing the “one size fits all” bias in prior research that overlooked bank ownership differences when examining the impact of ESG factors on bank performance.
目的鉴于银行业在促进经济增长方面的关键作用,利益相关者对其环境和社会影响的审查日益严格。人们鼓励银行采用环境、社会和治理(ESG)做法来降低风险和维护声誉。然而,银行业对环境、社会和治理敏感性的有效性取决于所有权和结构性因素。银行将环境、社会和治理因素纳入其运营和决策过程的程度可能因其所有权结构而异。因此,本研究旨在探讨环境、社会和公司治理对印度银行业绩的影响在私营银行和公共部门银行之间是否存在差异。考虑到所有权结构的影响,本研究的主要结论揭示了环境、社会和公司治理因素与银行绩效之间关系的深刻见解。对于私营银行而言,环境、社会和公司治理综合得分,尤其是社会维度,会对财务业绩产生负面影响。然而,对效率却有相反的积极影响。与此相反,公共部门银行的环境得分与股本回报率和不良资产之间存在显著的正相关关系。 研究结果突出表明,银行业需要制定与所有权结构相一致的定制战略,以实现可持续的财务和社会成果。此外,研究还强调私营银行需要简化其环境、社会和公司治理措施,尤其是在社会方面,以减轻对其财务业绩的负面影响。原创性/价值本研究引入了一个新的维度,解决了以往研究中存在的 "一刀切 "的偏差,即在研究环境、社会和公司治理因素对银行业绩的影响时忽略了银行所有权的差异。
