In this short report, I have taken a look at the concept of the San'in Yumeminato Expo held in Sakaiminato City in 1997, summarising its formulation process and uniqueness. In terms of the number of visitors, it was a regional exposition with around one-tenth the size of the Aichi Expo, but it clearly represents the methods used by Izumi and his team in order to realise expositions.This exposition can be seen as a step in the development of Izumi's exposition production, which followed the 1996 Tokyo World City Exposition (cancelled), through the 2001 Kitakyushu Expo (Kita Kyushu Hakuran Sai), and on to the Aichi Expo.</p>","PeriodicalId":12260,"journal":{"name":"F1000Research","volume":"14 ","pages":"441"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12090981/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144110385","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study applied a two-step robust system generalized method of moments (GMM) to analyze the effects of FI on bank stability, tests nonlinearities using Lind and Mehlum's (2010) U-test, and examines causality through Dumitrescu-Hurlin (2012) and Juodis et al.

FI enhances stability up to a 30.3% threshold, beyond which increased transaction costs, information asymmetries, and adverse selection risks weaken stability. Capital adequacy moderates this effect, raising the threshold to 35.1%, but its stabilizing role diminishes at higher levels. Granger causality tests confirm a bidirectional relationship. Additionally, bank efficiency and GDP growth enhance stability, while real interest rates, total assets, and income diversification exert destabilizing effects.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>This study makes three key contributions. First, it provides the first empirical analysis of the FI-stability nexus in Ethiopia. Second: (i), it develops a multidimensional FI index; (ii), explores both linear and nonlinear relationships, and (iii) examines macroprudential regulation as a moderating factor. Third, it tests causality, offering policy insights. To enhance stability while mitigating risks, policymakers must balance FI expansion, enforce regulatory frameworks, and implement targeted capital requirements.
