Despite a clear need for its establishment in sound risk culture and its integration with strategic planning, organisational leaders continue to implement these management concepts in isolation. Academic research into these conjoint relationships has also received less attention in the literature. This study investigates whether ERM's effect on firm financial performance, measured by return on assets, is mediated by risk culture and strategic planning. The study provides empirical evidence that adopting ERM solely does not enhance a firm's financial performance. The ERM, risk culture, and strategic planning constructs are empirically determined to be correlated. Strategic planning has a direct and positive relationship with firm performance. The study further provides empirical evidence that the positive effects of ERM implementation on firm financial performance are mediated by risk culture and strategic planning. The size of a firm and its financial leverage are remarkable determinants of firm performance, while firm age and growth rate are not. The pieces of evidence have been presented from an under-investigated context in Africa with other contributions to the literature, such as, providing comprehensive measures of ERM and risk culture and responding to calls to synthesise risk and strategic management. This study also advances multiple mediation analysis and the use of PLS-SEM in the ERM literature.

Studies revealed that Malaysian manufacturing small and medium enterprises (SMEs) encounter the challenges of operation and supply chain disruption and tight cash flows. These firms would not want to venture into green equipment and eco technologies if there is no certainty of promising returns. Overall, studies on sustainable management systems in the Malaysian manufacturing SMEs have revealed that firms are still in the early stages of implementation, such that sustainable manufacturing practices (SMPs) are predominantly production- and process-oriented, neglecting the importance of the product life cycle and sustainable end-of-life management. The aim of this paper is: (1) To examine the effect of GIC on firm sustainability performance (SP) and (2) To investigate the mediating effect of SMPs on relationship between GIC and firm SP. Smart PLS 3.0 was applied to analyze the data collected among 150 ISO 14001 certified local SMEs manufacturers. The study demonstrated the non-significant result between GIC and SP; while SMPs mediated the relationship between GIC and SP. This study enriches the Dynamic Capability View (DCV) by extending the sustainability model to better explain the sustainable development process in the context of Malaysian manufacturing SMEs. This article does not just inform firms on the importance of SMPs for performance but also guides firm managers towards understanding and improving their current SMPs. These results also help Malaysian policy makers in providing appropriate assistance to improve current firm operations, and subsequently, sustainability-related outcomes. Following this, various kinds of assistance (e.g., strategic planning, governance, facility, financing, and technology) can be provided to support SMEs manufacturers.","PeriodicalId":244811,"journal":{"name":"Business Management and Strategy","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122295977","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}

However, service recovery is deemed an instrumental factor to atone for the customer loss after a service failure. To examine this, the current study aims to analyse the relationship between service failure and its downstream effect on the future customer behavioural intentions (i.e., customers’ switching and repurchase. Moreover, this study incorporates the mediating role of service recovery between service failure and customers’ future intentions. The survey technique was employed to achieve objectives by collecting data from 364 Malaysian customers who purchased from any webstore in the last six months. Data was analysed through SPSS 24.0 and SEM-PLS 3.3.3. The results of the study revealed that service recovery has a positive impact on repurchase intention and switching intention. Furthermore, it is observed that due to cultural influences, the effect of service recovery on repurchase intention is less significant as compared to switching intention, which shows that in a specific culture, service recovery is less important than social loss. The practical implications of the study are two-fold. Firstly, the service provider should consider customers' expectations regarding service recovery. Secondly, service providers should not be limited to financial compensation only; instead, they should include non-financial compensation to retain customers from a specific culture.","PeriodicalId":244811,"journal":{"name":"Business Management and Strategy","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131287517","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}

Thus, the banking sector in developing countries still using traditional HRM practices to sustain the competitive advantages and to achieve the business goals. The current study investigates the influence of organizational culture, employees’ commitment, and sustainable competitive advantages on the strategic human resource management practices in the banking sector of Saudi Arabia. We applied a resource-based view to achieve the research objectives. “Structural equation modelling-partial least square” (SEM-PLS) technique were applied to investigate the relationship among constructs under study. A cross-sectional method was applied to collect data from 181 employees working in different banks in Saudi Arabia. We found organizational culture significantly influence employees’ commitment and sustainable competitive advantages. Hence, employees’ commitment does not influence strategic human resource management practices; merely, sustaining competitive advantages significantly influence strategic human resource management practices. Additionally, employees’ commitment not mediates the relationship between organizational culture and strategic human resource practices. Thereby, sustainable competitive advantages mediate the relationship between organizational culture and strategic human resource management practices. Finally, the present study will help the banking sector to unearth the best implication of strategic human resource management practices as they can sustain the competitive advantages and achieve the business goals.","PeriodicalId":244811,"journal":{"name":"Business Management and Strategy","volume":"108 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130542841","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}

Mainly we will show the following results. 1) In order to maintain full employment under economic growth, the budget deficit, including interest payments on government bonds, must be positive; and if the budget deficit is smaller than this value, there will be recession with involuntary unemployment. 2) Under full employment the debt to GDP ratio approaches to a finite value over time. 3) In the underemployment case the national income is determined by the budget deficit. 4) The excessive budget deficit causes inflation. 6) In order to recover full employment from recession we need budget deficit larger than that when full employment is maintained. 5) The budget deficit, including interest payments on government bonds, equals the increase of the savings of consumers between periods (generations); and this result holds whether we have full employment or not, whether we have inflation or not. Then, the ratio of the national debt to GDP in a period is smaller than one, and even if one period constitutes of several years, the debt to GDP ratio in a year is finite.","PeriodicalId":244811,"journal":{"name":"Business Management and Strategy","volume":"56 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127672867","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}

Given their somewhat ambiguous living conditions and residence status here (e.g. legal, illegal, refugee, etc.), it is imperative to understand their situation in-depth. One of the most important aspects that impact the living conditions of these immigrants is health; accordingly, in this research, we attempted to discover the extent and factors of Middle Eastern immigrants’ satisfaction with the Malaysian healthcare system and its facilities. In this cross-sectional study, we used a questionnaire to collect data from 219 respondents both online and in-person. Various statistical methods were employed to analyze the data, including descriptive analysis, Pearson’s correlation, and multiple regression. The findings indicate a slight dissatisfaction among Middle Eastern immigrants with respect to the Malaysian healthcare system, due to the cost of health services and communication barriers. The results also highlight that marital status, monthly income, awareness of services, Malay language proficiency, and culture are factors that impact immigrants’ perception of the quality of healthcare services. Therefore, this study provides valuable insights into this important group of immigrants in terms of their experience in public and private healthcare facilities that shape their opinions and satisfaction with the Malaysian healthcare system.","PeriodicalId":244811,"journal":{"name":"Business Management and Strategy","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129565049","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}
