However, due to limited technical diffusion and the fact that the majority of small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Malaysia do not engage in research and development (R&D) activities, SMEs are still lagging behind in adopting this modern technology. Therefore, there is a need to investigate SMEs in terms of their extent of online marketing adoption and factors influencing their adoption of online marketing. A quantitative survey was conducted on 80 selected SMEs in Malaysia. The study found that the proposed framework could be used to assess the degree of online marketing adoption among SMEs. The adoption of online marketing among SMEs was rather high. Specifically, the findings demonstrated that compatibility, complexity and trialability significantly influenced adoption of online marketing. However, the adoption of online marketing was not affected by relative advantage and observability. This study further concluded compatibility was the most important factor which influenced SMEs in adopting internet marketing.","PeriodicalId":244811,"journal":{"name":"Business Management and Strategy","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129680529","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}

The study was guided by two predicting variables: economic condition (EC) and fund growth (FG). The predictor variables were tested on investors' return (IR) as the dependent variable. The study employed a quantitative approach using secondary data generated through panel form in the series of 8 years from 2014 to 2021. The study collected facts with regard to the selected and tested variables from all five schemes in the mutual funds. The data were analysed by E-views 13 and STATA 15 for statistical assumptions tests and the inferential analysis towards relationship testing between study variables. The study findings revealed that both economic condition and fund growth had been found positive with a significant effect on investment return (IR) with p<0.05. The results imply that economic condition and fund growth influence the investment return through Tanzania's mutual fund. Therefore, this study recommends that the government of Tanzania through its agencies, Capital Market Securities Authority (CMSA) and Bank of Tanzania (BOT), to invest more in growing the economy. This assures favourable economic conditions that will attract cashflows to mutual funds and assure fund growth and investors returns.","PeriodicalId":244811,"journal":{"name":"Business Management and Strategy","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129229015","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}

The study revealed that, level of education, salaries and incentives significantly influenced employee adaptability, accounting for more than 80% of current changes in staff career choices. Equally, cultural diversity significantly influenced employee engagement, accounting for 84% of changes in current employee engagement abilities whilst career development opportunities accounted for 71% of changes in staff’s current engagement abilities. In view of the findings, the study recommends that human resource managers should pay particular attention to applicants’ ability and willingness to learn during recruitment process. Equally, Human resource managers should be encouraged to create opportunities for employees to plan and manage their career paths and goals.

This study examines the impact of debt financing on the profitability of start-ups using trade-off theory and pecking order theory and uses regression analysis to select factors that are correlated with debt financing structure and profitability for listed companies on the National Equities Exchange and Quotation System (NEEQ) from 2012 to 2021. At the end of the theoretical and empirical analyses, the impact of debt financing on the profitability of start-ups is analyzed and corresponding countermeasures are proposed. Finally, the findings of the study are summarized and the shortcomings of the study and the prospects for future research are outlined. The findings of this study are that debt level structure is negatively related to profitability, indicating that gearing has a negative impact on the profitability of start-ups. In terms of debt type structure, mercantile credit has a positive effect on the profitability of start-ups and bank financing have a detrimental effect on profitability. Overall, debt financing has a negative impact on the profitability of start-ups, but business credit has a positive impact on profitability.","PeriodicalId":244811,"journal":{"name":"Business Management and Strategy","volume":"136 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122650564","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}

Consequently, internationalization has become a vital component for any SME which necessitate enhancing our understanding on determinants of internationalization, particularly in emerging economies. To this end, a literature review is conducted to develop a new conceptual model. Certain variables are identified for influencing SME internationalization including export capability and networking capability. Additionally, it is proposed that the relationship between networking capability, export capability and SME internationalization might be mediated by competitive advantage. This study contributes to the scant literature on the determinants of the firm competitive advantage and its potential mediating role in the relationship between organizational capabilities and SME internationalization. Practically, the present study benefits policymakers and the government in developing countries to outline the suitable policies and frameworks to produce more SMEs that are capable to exploit the international markets.","PeriodicalId":244811,"journal":{"name":"Business Management and Strategy","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115593222","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}
