In facts, Kenyan cooking practices are characterized by a strong dependence on solid biomass, with 82% of the households still using firewood or charcoal every day, and with a negative impact on the environment and severe health issues that need to be addressed. \u0000This paper informs on the current situation of households' cooking fuels consumption and maps out the country's cooking fuels market. By focusing on the analysis of the data collected through two independent field surveys, it then identifies the key factors affecting the fuel choices. In particular, the paper finds that affordability and access to credit are the variables with most explanatory power in predicting consumers' choices. The paper finally suggests specific actions to undertake in order to impact the households' decisions.","PeriodicalId":224430,"journal":{"name":"Decision-Making in Economics eJournal","volume":"237 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-05-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121470838","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Answers to problems: 1) gender profile of borrowers of MFIs; 2) reasons why men seldom borrow; 3) gender role in decision making; and 4) gender role in business management; and through descriptive-evaluative research methods, focused-group discussion, interview/documentary analysis; generated these findings: 1) MFI beneficiaries’ profile reflects that 74.58% are women (mothers), 18.33% are men (fathers), 2.92% are eldest sons, and 4.17% are eldest daughters; with high school education, belonging to poor families of 3 to 6 members; engaged in vending; 2) Fathers and males seldom avail of loans because: a) MFI is designed for mothers; b) fathers are busy to attend meetings and activities; 3) Mothers are given full authority to decide how to spend loan proceeds provided they are managed well and records kept for transparency; 4) Decision making is shared between fathers and mothers, with little participation from eldest sons and/or daughters; and mothers hold prime responsibility over the business with minimal participation from fathers and/or children. MFIs may: 1) Review their mission, vision, goals, lending policies and programs, and employ better modalities that include gender roles in the family since many fathers and children are unemployed; 2) Studies on gender-based business can be conducted to document success stories of borrowers to encourage family members to engage in productive roles; 3) Beneficiaries must be coached by the MFIs in business implementation and decision making to empower them and stop the cycle of borrowing within period of five (5) years.","PeriodicalId":224430,"journal":{"name":"Decision-Making in Economics eJournal","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-08-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115332976","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Financial market participants are not a uniform group of rational investors. Instead, they are an amalgamation of heterogeneous traders with varied and sometimes very divergent goals. In fact, not every financial market participant is an investor; a significant number of financial market participants are speculators. Thus, the current paradigm of using Modern Portfolio Theory to represent the activities of market participants as \"investor behavior\" leads to predictions that do not fit the outcomes that are observed in financial markets. First, we define \"investment\" and \"an investor\" from a value investing perspective according to Benjamin Graham. After discussing some of the standard conclusions of Modern Portfolio Theory and traditional asset pricing models, we present a number of propositions to motivate discussion on ways to rethink the current prevailing view of what is investment and who is an investor. This is with a goal to nudge academic finance back to the ideas of Benjamin Graham as encapsulated in the value investing paradigm, a system of investment decision making that has withstood the test of time and economic, business and financial cycles for over 80 years. We focus particularly on how investors perceive and handle risk in their portfolio management decisions. We conclude that the core value investing framework, as well as analytical tools and methodology as handed down by Benjamin Graham, are capable and sufficient to develop portfolio theory that incorporates time and investor behavior that is different from the homogeneous group of ultra-rational decision makers on whom the current popular models are based.","PeriodicalId":224430,"journal":{"name":"Decision-Making in Economics eJournal","volume":"2014 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127503313","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
