title: Factors affecting transportation’s development and spillover effects on neighboring provinces: the case of Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam

description: The objective of this study is to explore the influence of various factors on transportation development, considering their spillover effects on Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth in neighboring provinces. The study utilizes time-series data from the transportation industry in Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam. Accordingly, a theoretical framework is constructed based on foundational theories. The methodology involves Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) analysis and its five steps of Goodness of Fit testing. The key findings include: (1) Mobile phones positively influence, while corruption control and state investment negatively impact goods labor productivity; (2) Provincial Competitiveness Index (PCI) and state investment positively influence both people labor productivity and people capital productivity; (3) Regarding spillover effects on neighboring provinces, mobile phones have a negative influence, while PCI positively impacts the GDP growth of Binh Phuoc. Mobile phones negatively affect GDP growth in Vung Tau and Dong Nai, whereas corruption control positively affects it in these provinces. Therefore, with regard to institutions, the government should regulate transportation industry activities towards environmental friendliness, such as developing PCI in the direction of a green environment or investing in green fuel for the transportation industry. As corruption control has both positive and negative effects, we recommend increasing corruption control towards a sustainable economy. Regarding technology, since mobile phones have both positive and negative effects, we suggest finding a balance to boost goods labor productivity. These results offer transportation policymakers and managers both theoretical and practical perspectives to improve the transportation industry’s development. Our study is an empirical investigation into the factors influencing the development of transportation and the spillover effects on neighboring provinces, with a focus on the case of Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam. Ho Chi Minh stands as the largest city and economic hub of Vietnam, playing a crucial role in the southern key economic region. The transportation industry’s average contribution to Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP) in Ho Chi Minh was approximately 16% during the period from 2010 to 2020. However, a significant challenge emerges. From 2010 to 2020, just over 40% of enterprises in the transportation industry were profitable, with around 50% experiencing sales losses. Moreover, about 8% of enterprises encountered operational interruptions, temporary closures, or faced issues leading to dissolution or bankruptcy.

title: Exploring entrepreneurship among Thai college students through the lens of theory of planned behaviour

description: Entrepreneurship plays a pivotal role in driving economic growth and national development, making it a focal point of research within the social sciences, particularly in management. In Thailand, where Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) play a significant role in the economy, nurturing entrepreneurship among students is a priority. College-level students represent a burgeoning workforce with the potential to catalyse new ventures and elevate national standards through their entrepreneurial zeal. However, there is no confirmation that all students are able to fulfill their entrepreneurial aspirations, despite the potential contribution of high levels of entrepreneurial elements to business success. This study therefore aims to fill the gap in research specific to Thailand’s context regarding factors influencing entrepreneurial intention by utilising Ajzen’s Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB) model to examine factors influencing entrepreneurial intention among undergraduate students. Additionally, it explores the impact of entrepreneurial education and social and government support on shaping entrepreneurial intention. Through a quantitative research approach and data analysis of 426 undergraduate students, the study finds that attitude towards entrepreneurship is the most influential factor, followed by perceived behavioural control, social support, entrepreneurial education, and government support. Furthermore, the study reveals an unexpected finding wherein government support exhibits a negative relationship with entrepreneurial intention, suggesting potential deficiencies in current policies. The findings emphasise the significance of promoting positive attitudes towards entrepreneurship, enhancing entrepreneurial education, fostering social support networks, and reevaluating government policies to effectively encourage entrepreneurial intentions among students and drive economic development in Thailand.

title: Understanding green IT adoption: TAM and dual-lens of innovation resistance

description: The escalating environmental impact of IT products in Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries, particularly Saudi Arabia, has prompted the exploration of specific green IT adoption practices, such as the use of energy-efficient computers, renewable energy-powered devices, and electronics with sustainability certifications. However, existing theoretical models often overlook aspects of long-term usage and resistance to technology adoption. To bridge this gap, this study integrates the widely recognized Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and Innovation Resistance Theory (IRT) to understand the drivers and barriers affecting consumers’ intention to adopt green IT products. Cross-sectional data were collected from 237 consumers using an online survey. Variance-based structural equation modeling (SEM), specifically partial least squares (PLS)-SEM analysis, was employed. The results underscore the importance of perceived ease of use and usefulness as key drivers of adoption intention. Simultaneously, active innovation resistance, encompassing usage, value, and risk factors, and passive innovation resistance, linked to image and traditions, emerged as significant barriers. Increased passive barriers underlined the necessity for particular approaches to overcome them. Using acceptance and resistance theories, this research has improved our knowledge of IT adoption dynamics. This study helps practitioners promote green IT adoption by emphasising user-friendly design and passive resistance. We discuss the study’s limitations and advise additional research.

title: Performance determinants of non-life insurance firms: a systematic review of the literature

description: The performance of non-life insurers is essential to the economy because of their role in mitigating the risks firms and households face. This study provides a comprehensive overview of studies examining factors affecting non-life insurers’ performance. Based on 235 studies published between 1990 and 2021, the review demonstrates that firm-level factors such as size, organisational form, diversification, capital structure, risk, reinsurance, corporate governance, distribution system, and group affiliation, and external factors such as market structure, macroeconomic, financial, and institutional development are the major determinants of non-life insurers’ performance. Although the empirical evidence on the effect of these factors is generally mixed, firm size, capitalisation, risk, macroeconomic conditions, and, to some extent, corporate governance and market structure issues show a clear relationship with insurer performance. One of the implications of this study is that there may be a need for increased solvency surveillance, especially for smaller insurers, which appear to have a higher risk of insolvency than their larger counterparts.

title: Does index options trading destabilize Indian stock market volatility: an application of ARCH and GARCH models

description: Many investors and financial managers are interested in derivatives, which are financial instruments that derive their value from an underlying asset. These instruments have become popular due to their low initial requirements for futures trading and the need to pay premiums for options. The aim of this research, then, was to examine how the inclusion of Nifty index options impacts underlying market volatility using ARCH and GARCH models. The data set used in this study consists of 5996 time-series observations of NSE Nifty index closing prices. Here, the observations span from November 7, 1994, to December 31, 2018. Of these, 1622 observations are from the period before the introduction of options trading, while the remaining 4374 observations are from the period after the introduction of options trading. To determine the robustness of the study, the ARCH family has been chosen in order to capture the volatility behaviour and accommodate for heteroscedasticity in the returns. The coefficient’s negative sign suggests that the introduction of index options has a stabilised effect on underlying market volatility, even when taking into account structural breaks.

title: Long-term effect of the form of payment in Spanish mergers and acquisitions: an event study

description: This paper explores the methods of payments for companies engaged in mergers or acquisitions, focusing on the Spanish market from 2007 to 2019, specifically on transformative transactions. We use a novel approach to build a sample of homogeneous corporate transactions that allows us to measure the performance for the acquirer one year after the announcement. A descriptive analysis, considering seventeen criteria, and an event study performed using the market model, CAPM and the Fama-French and Carhart four factor model, evaluate the acquirer’s performance post-announcement. Statistically significative results indicate that using shares over cash is preferable for acquirers to achieve sustained success. These findings reveal that, despite theoretical advantages of cash, shares as method of payment may lead to better stock market performance, limited financial profile deterioration, and more favorable long-term prospects for shareholders.
