{"title":"DOES PUBLIC DEBT IMPEDE FINANCIAL DEVELOPMENT IN JORDAN SOME MACRO AND MICRO ANALYSES","authors":"Ghassan Omet","doi":"10.17261/pressacademia.2023.1776","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.17261/pressacademia.2023.1776","url":null,"abstract":"Purpose- It is widely acknowledged that banks (and stock markets) provide economies with a number of useful services, including the promotion and allocation of savings, monitoring of investments, and others. Given their importance, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) has been publishing what is called the “Financial Development Index for more than 180 economies. On a scale of 0 to +1.0, the Index ranks countries based on how developed their financial institutions (banks and insurance) and financial markets (stock market) are in terms of three sub-pillars: Depth, Access, and Efficiency. The depth dimension of banks and insurance includes bank credit to the private sector to Gross Domestic Product (GDP) ratio. Within this context and given the fact that public debt in Jordan has been increasing at an alarming rate, this paper sets out to investigate the impact of public debt on bank credit to the private sector at both the macro level and micro level. In more specific terms, the purpose of this paper is to provide answers to two questions: First, what is the impact of public debt on aggregate credit to the private sector? Second, what is the impact of public debt on bank-level credit to the private sector? Methodology- To provide an answer to the first question, the paper uses annual data (1982 – 2021) on bank credit to the private sector, bank credit to the government, and the discount rate. stationarity. The used techniques include stationarity test, optimal lag structure, co-integration, and vector error-correction (VECM) estimation. To answer the second question, the paper uses annual bank level data (2010 – 2021) for all 13 listed Jordanian banks. The fact that this data includes both time series and cross-section elements, panel data analysis is used to measure the impact of bank credit to the government on bank credit to the private sector. Findings- The results clearly show that bank credit to the governments has a significant and negative impact of bank credit to the private sector. This is an unfortunate finding as it implies that public debt does impede financial development. Conclusion- As far as the bank-level results are concerned, the results show that their lending behaviour to the government does affect their credit to the private sector. On average, banks that lend more to the government, ceteris paribus, lend less to the private sector. The government should look at the status of its public finance and work on reducing its borrowing. Keywords: Jordan, public debt, bank credit, diversification, time-series analysis, co-integration.

{"title":"ELABORATING ESG CRITERIA IN INVESTMENTS","authors":"Meryem Loukili, Vahit Ferhan Benli","doi":"10.17261/pressacademia.2023.1795","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.17261/pressacademia.2023.1795","url":null,"abstract":"Purpose- The aim of this study is to conduct a comprehensive analysis of ESG criteria in investments, and to investigate the potential correlation between ESG pillar scores (i.e., environmental, social, and governance) and the market value of banks. Moreover, the study seeks to identify the areas where ESG performance is most valuable and relevant. ESG investment is a contentious subject, and there are varying perspectives regarding the appropriate weight given to ESG pillars when investing and managing certain banks. The study aims to establish ESG goals and means, define, evaluate, and report ESG performance of firms, and assist investors in comprehending the significance of ESG criteria in making informed investment decisions. Finally, the study provides insights into the implications of ESG investment for businesses and the capital markets as a whole. Methodology- To investigate the correlation of ESG scores on the market value of banks, a quantitative research methodology was employed, which involved a thematic analysis to identify and analyse relevant data. The dataset for this study was obtained from Thomson Reuters database, and it includes data from the past 10 years’ operating in the Turkish and Swiss banks. Findings- The findings of the study suggest that ESG factors have a stronger and more significant impact on the market values of Swiss banks compared to Turkish banks. The higher degree of integration and alignment between ESG concerns and market value is evident through the stronger correlations observed between ESG scores, market capitalization, and the individual pillars within Swiss banks. This implies that Swiss banks have demonstrated a better incorporation of ESG considerations into their market valuations, potentially reflecting their stronger focus on sustainability, responsible business practices, and investor demands for ESG-related performance. Overall, these empirical findings support the hypothesis that there is a positive impact of ESG scores on market value of banks. Conclusion- In sum, the analysis involved examining the correlation between various ESG metrics and market capitalization with a positive correlation between ESG scores and market capitalization in both Turkish and Swiss banks. Specifically, the correlation matrix showed that ESG scores were positively associated with market capitalization, indicating that higher ESG scores were generally accompanied by higher market values. Furthermore, the analysis highlighted the significance of individual ESG pillars. In both Turkish and Swiss banks, the E Pillar Score, S Pillar Score, and G Pillar Score showed positive correlations with market capitalization, suggesting that environmental, social, and governance factors play a role in influencing market value.

Therefore, fuel efficiency is important for cost optimization in airline operation management. Fuel efficiency has been studied in many ways in airline operation management in the literature. It can be reported that the cost optimization due to additional fuel transportation caused by meteorological conditions is also an important field. This study aims to provide data for making a decision to form a fuel policy for a flight schedule by determining the divert risk rate by analyzing previous meteorology reports when there is a risk of divert due to low visibility in meteorology reports. Methodology- Thus, by providing data for airline operation managers to make decisions that will provide fuel optimization, cost-effectiveness will also be contributed. Data for the study were taken from OGIMET (the Spanish meteorology website). A simulated flight was created for the study, and the past period forecast efficiency was calculated from previous meteorological data to determine the divert risk rate. Then, it was revealed how much the divert risk rate was reduced if additional fuel was carried for the flight according to the past period meteorological data to ensure that the aircraft waited for suitable conditions in the air at the landing aerodrome. Findings- The above results reveal the divert risk rate for the airline39 flights when additional fuel is loaded and without loading additional fuel in low visibility forecast operations for the three months of the year when low visibility is more common, based on past meteorological data. Conclusion- As a result of the study, it can be reported that a model has been created relating to how to determine the divert risk rate to make a fuel policy decision for a flight schedule when there is a risk of diverting due to low visibility in airline operation management.

A financial sector is measured and compared on four main features; debt is the size of financial institutions, access is the access and use of financial services by the users, efficiency is the efficiency in the provision of financial services, and stability is the stability in the provision of financial services. Financial inclusion, in short, is adults' access to and use of financial services. This study aims to measure the financial inclusion level for selected OECD countries from 2010-2021. Also, this study aims to estimate the effect of financial inclusion on economic growth and income inequality for selected countries. Methodology- The data used in this study cover a range of variables related to financial inclusion from various institutions, including the IMF-Financial Access Survey (IMF-FAS), the World Bank - World Development Indicators (WB-WDI), the World Bank - Global Financial Development Database (WB-GFDD) and the Standardized World Income Inequality Database (SWIID). These variables provide insights into the dimensions and determinants of financial inclusion and their impact on economic and social outcomes for selected OECD countries. In the study, we run panel data regressions for each group separately, using GDP per capita as the dependent variable to determine the impact of the Financial Inclusion Index on economic growth. We also construct two different models for each group of countries with and without the added control variables into the models. Findings- The analysis reveals that the effect of financial inclusion on economic growth is negative for all groups of countries. The impact is significant for Group 1 and Group 2. The magnitude of coefficients changes when we add control variables to the model. However, it does not change the significance level of the coefficients. The magnitude of the coefficients increases as countries’ per capita income increases. At the same time, the effect of financial inclusion on the GINI index is significant only in the model for Group 3 with control variables. The sign of the impact is negative. It implies that the GINI index decreases as the financial inclusion index increases. So, the effect of financial inclusion on income inequality is positive for countries in Group 3. Conclusion- The empirical results did not support the relationship between financial inclusion and economic growth (GDP per capita). These results may be explained by advocating the financial sector's quick and fundamental digital transformation. Hence, the rules for availability, accessibility, and usage of financial products and system are completely changed in the past ten years.

This involves the timely release of financial statements, which are essential for providing investors, creditors, and other stakeholders with an overview of a company's financial status. Timely financial reporting allows stakeholders to react quickly to changes in a company's financial situation and make informed investment decisions. It also helps to build trust and confidence in a company's management and financial reporting processes, ultimately leading to greater transparency and accountability. This study aims to provide a scope review of current literature on financial reporting timeliness by analyzing the number of publications on this topic in Web of Science. Methodology- A systematic search of academic databases and search engines was conducted using keywords such as \"financial reporting timeliness,\" \"audit report lag\" and \"audit report delay\". Findings- We found that there are more than 150 publications on the topicality of financial reporting on the Web of Science alone from 2012-2023. Over the past few years, there has been a steady and consistent increase in the number of publications dedicated to exploring the topic of financial reporting timeliness, specifically focusing on the audit report lag. Conclusion- The review highlights key themes, including factors contributing to audit report delays, the impact of audit report delays on financial reporting timeliness, and potential solutions for improving audit report timeliness. The findings reveal that audit report delays can have significant consequences for financial reporting timeliness, and consequently, for stakeholders' decision-making processes.

Methodology- In this study, a comparative analysis of macroeconomic statistical data of advanced and emerging countries that have an economic intelligence system was performed. In this context, the difference between a country that practices economic intelligence and a country that does not practice it is evaluated by performing a static analysis on the macroeconomic indicators of the United States and Brazil. Findings- As a result of the analysis of the economic actors, it is seen that the areas of economic vulnerability should be regulated in order to bring the interests of the stakeholders within the system together in a common center. At the same time, it was concluded that the preferences and priorities of stakeholders should be directed in order to regulate macroeconomic vulnerabilities. In emerging economies, it is being pioneered in order to conduct a positioning study on which macroeconomic indicators should be interpreted in the process of analyzing the preferences and priorities of stakeholders. Conclusion- Considering the comparative macroeconomic analysis, it is seen that the countries applying the economic intelligence system have a warning system because they can examine the conditions before the economic crises. This warning system ensures that stakeholders are compliant in accordance with the conditions.Due to these developments, it is thought that a break from Neo-Classical economic rules, which gained importance after the 1980s, has begun to occur. Although this break is not a complete break, it shows that there is a search for a new economic norm. In the process of searching for this norm, it is seen that the economic intelligence system is important.

However, it is an undeniable fact that teleworking brings with it different obligations when it comes to gender roles. Although working remotely is considered an advantage for women in traditional societies, the opposite results are obtained in researches (Gálvez, Tirado &amp; Martínez, 2020). Studies show that married women have increased responsibilities at home while working remotely. Married women both do housework or child care and fulfill their job responsibilities. This role conflict, on the other hand, causes work-family conflict to a large extent in women (Van der Lippe &amp; Lippényi, 2020). The conflict between work and family is when the wishes of the individual are not met in both areas of his life: at work and in his personal life (Solís, 2016). The theory of Clark's boundary states that individuals have two worlds, a personal world and a professional world(Clark, 2000). The theory separated work and family as two separate disciplines (Igeltjørn and Habib, 2020). The individual must mold and alter himself as he transitions between his professional and family lives. Boundary theory recognizes the significance of the path individuals take to maintain the boundary between work and personal space. Despite being considered separate entities, \"family\" and \"work\" have an indirect relationship that directly affects one another (Rodríguez-Modroño &amp; López-Igual, 2021). On the other hand, we think that the presence of positive feelings towards the job of the employee may have an effect on this negative relationship (Lizana &amp; Vega-Fernadez, 2021). Therefore, within the scope of the study, the relationship between work-private-life conflict and job satisfaction of married women will be examined and the mediating effect of job satisfaction will be examined. Methodology- The study's questionnaire, it was applied to 271 married female teleworkers in public and private sectors. The data obtained from the questionnaires were analyzed with SPSS 23 statistical package software. In this research, machine learning models and techniques based on transformers were used.
