This study uses a range of bank-characteristic determinants (internal factors), macroeconomic determinants (external factors) and three different dimensions of globalisation including economic globalisation, social globalisation and political globalisation to explain local commercial bank performance in Malaysia. This study uses regression analysis based on the secondary data for local commercial banks in Malaysia. The period for this secondary data is 10 years which is from the year 2008 till 2017. This study indicates that there is strong evidence stating both economic and politic globalisation have negatively significant effects on the bank performance in Malaysia. Meanwhile, social globalisation shows an insignificant result on this. As for bank characteristics variables, credit risk shows a negatively significant result towards bank performance in Malaysia while bank size shows a positive and significant result towards bank performance in Malaysia. Sole macroeconomic variable which is GDP does not show any significant result towards the bank performance in Malaysia. Therefore, central bank of Malaysia should give some incentive training for local bankers on how to adopt new supervision and risk management. This will give the local bankers some new knowledge to handle better risk management and directly boost the bank performance. Besides that, banks should develop their credit risk management to overcome any default loans and for better financial performances. Banks in Malaysia also need to expand their businesses as larger banks give a larger facility which directly boots the bank performance. It is also recommended for Malaysian banks to improve their forecasting of macroeconomic fluctuations in future to achieve greater efficiency levels.","PeriodicalId":264194,"journal":{"name":"Research in World Economy","volume":"90 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-02-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128322184","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 research employed the quantitative approach involving a descriptive survey. A sample size of 360 respondents was randomly selected for the study. A questionnaire instrument was used in gathering primary data for the study. Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) was used in providing a comprehensive validation of the measurement instrument. The required inferential statistics including normality, multicollinearity, and heteroscedasticity tests were performed and were satisfactory. Structural Equation Model (SEM) was used to estimate structural relationships between health and safety training, safety monitoring and enforcement of compliance on employee efficiency. The research results showed that health and safety training has a significant positive effect on employee efficiency with a p-value of 0.000; safety monitoring has a significant positive effect on employee efficiency with a p-value of 0.000 and enforcement of compliance has a significant positive effect on employee efficiency with a p-value of 0.000. The research brings to the fore and creates awareness on the influence of health and safety training, safety monitoring, and enforcement of compliance to safety and health standard towards enhancing workers' safety, health and welfare for improved employee efficiency. Manufacturing firms should ensure adequate health and safety training and proper safety monitoring and enforcement of compliance to safety and health standard to reduce accidents and improve employee efficiency and performance.","PeriodicalId":264194,"journal":{"name":"Research in World Economy","volume":"64 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128880065","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 findings reveal that: (1) the GCI is highly correlated with productivity level and the selected post-Soviet countries with higher level of national competitiveness had higher long-term economic growth and income per capita, (2) Russia and Kazakhstan more benefited from rising per capita income associated with enhanced national competitiveness (or productivity growth) compared to other selected former Soviet states, (3) among the GCI factors, ICT adoption, macroeconomic stability, market size and healthy life expectancy were major levers of productivity growth that influenced the national competitiveness, positively and significantly contributing to an increase in the income level in the selected post-Soviet countries in 2004-2018 period.","PeriodicalId":264194,"journal":{"name":"Research in World Economy","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122606573","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}

In Montenegro and Kosovo, for example, the surfaces planted with tobacco are almost inconsequential. Agricultural policies and legal and procedural frameworks regulate all related processes, such as tobacco seed distribution, registration of farmers, disclosure of land farmed for tobacco, production yield, and the various collecting and processing stages, as well as the enforcement capacities of the related law enforcement institutions. These factors have significantly impacted tobacco production and trade, including the levels of illicit production and trade. This paper is based on empirical analysis, evaluation of the statistical data of tobacco-related state policies and country interviews related to tobacco production costs in the region, which affect sector-related policies. Our findings indicate that Albania has a lack of clear and coordinated policies, procedures, and enforcement capacities to regulate and monitor all processes, from planting to the processing and trade of tobacco. North Macedonia is in a much better situation in this regard and a new draft tobacco law, associated with a series of implementation regulations is expected to result in further improvements. In the Albanian case, strong evidence suggests that there are considerable tracts of land planted with tobacco and many illegal tobacco-processing plants.","PeriodicalId":264194,"journal":{"name":"Research in World Economy","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128275809","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}

Net interest margin (NIM) and non-net interest income (Non-NIM) were used as control variables. There was a total of 58 banks used as a sample using a purposive sampling technique. There were two stages of the analytical method used: data envelopment analysis (DEA) approach – to provide estimates of bank efficiency, and multiple regression linear – consists of the statistical F-test and t-test, coefficient of determination (R2) test and the classic assumption test. The results show that capitalization and bank age affect bank efficiency negatively, while bank size and LAR affect bank efficiency positively. The banks are suggested to consider optimizing their capital to continue to operate efficiently, increase their assets to be more efficient, the older banks are expected to be able to adjust to technological developments, and the banks are also expected to increase the amount of credit by monitoring its quality to be efficient.","PeriodicalId":264194,"journal":{"name":"Research in World Economy","volume":"38 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116612961","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}
