Case studies on banking companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange from 2014 to 2020. This study applies a comparative casual method with a quantitative approach. The data analysis technique applied in this study uses library research methods related to the application of secondary data. The population is 45 issuers of the sectoral banking index. Meanwhile, the research sample consisted of 5 issuers of the sectoral banking index obtained by applying the purposive sampling method. The data analysis technique applied in this study uses multiple regression analysis and path analysis. The study results concluded that there was a positive and significant effect of Return On Equity and Debt To Equity Ratio on Inflation. There is a negative and significant effect of Return On Equity on Stock Prices. Debt To Equity Ratio has a positive and insignificant effect on stock prices. However, there is a negative and significant effect of inflation on stock prices. For example, inflation can mediate Return On Equity on stock prices, which means that an increase in the profitability (ROE) aspect of the banking sector issuer index will increase the inflation rate, which impacts the decline in stock prices in the capital market. Inflation is not able to mediate the effect of the Debt to Equity Ratio on the price aspect, which indicates that with an increase in the number of problematic banking sector indexes in terms of the efficiency of company assets, ultimately, investors tend to consider more considering the fundamental aspects of other companies which not only show how much the company obtains total net sales.","PeriodicalId":275599,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Multidisciplinary Research and Growth Evaluation","volume":"104 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115620595","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 insurance industry being an essential part of the economy’s financial sector with inherent potentials to drive economic expansion deserves government consideration in its fiscal policies. This study aimed at examining the effect of government fiscal policy on the performance of the insurance sector using autoregressive distributive lag (ARDL) model on data from CBN bulletin 2020 and Federal Inland Revenue Service report from 1994 to 2020. The result of the study indicated that total tax revenue has a negative relationship with insurance premium both in the short run and in the long run. While government expenditure has a positive effect on insurance performance in the short run and in the long run. The co-integrating equation also signified that for any movement into disequilibrium is corrected within one period. The study therefore recommend among others that government should utilize its expansionary fiscal policy in a manner that it will create an enabling environment for sectorial development, improve investments and relatively increase the activities of the insurance sector.","PeriodicalId":275599,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Multidisciplinary Research and Growth Evaluation","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123709271","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}

Maintaining daily attendance register is a tough and time consuming task. There are many alternative methods for marking the attendence like Biometric, RFID, eye detection, voice recognition, and many more. But Facial Recognition is an efficient and smart method for marking attendance. As it is known that primary identification for any human is its face, face recognition provides an accurate system which deals with the ambiguities like proxy in attendance, high cost, and time consumption. This system uses face recognizer library for facial recognition and storing attendance. It has a camera that takes an input image, an algorithm to detect a face from the input image, encode it and recognize the face and mark the attendance in a spreadsheet. The system camera of an android phone/laptop clicks the image and sends it to the server where faces are recognized from the database and attendance is calculated on basis of it. The aim of reducing the errors that occur in the older attendance marking system has been achieved by implementing the automated attendance system using deep learning. Face recognition system has been presented using deep learning which shows robustness towards recognition of the users with accuracy of 98.3% and result is converted into a PDF File.

Mizaj theory has its roots in the ancient four humors theory. It was the Greek physician Buqrat (Hippocrates 460-370 BC) who systematized and developed it into a medical theory. He believed certain human moods, emotions, and behaviors were caused by body fluids (called “Humor”): blood, yellow bile, black bile, and phlegm. So, it is necessary to find out its relationship with physical fitness which may be influenced by individual mizaj (body type) and it can be considered as a decisive advantage to selecting an appropriate exercise for each athlete. Research in this area is very scanty and inconclusive, therefore the participants of young age and clinically healthy have been chosen as the subject of study. The objective of the present study is to find out the nature of mizaj (body type) with physical fitness. The sample of the present study was drawn from Ayurvedic and Unani tibbia college students, both boys and girls. In the present study, mizaj was assessed by using a mizaj assessment questionnaire based on ten classical parameters described in the Unani classical literature category, and physical fitness was determined by physical fitness index(PFI) using a modified Harvard step bench test. Analysis of data in the current study was done by calculating the mean, standard deviation, and one-way ANOVA in SPSS 22.0 software for all the factors of mizaj and physical fitness. It is observed that PFI, is highest in people having Damvi Mizaj and lowest in people having saudavi Mizaj and it is in concordance with the experimental hypothesis of this research work. From this study, it is clear that a possible correlation between PFI and Mizaj certainly does exist. After that, PFI could be considered as one of the diagnostic indices of temperament.","PeriodicalId":275599,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Multidisciplinary Research and Growth Evaluation","volume":"53 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133563916","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 increased interest is not only because of its theoretical appeal, but it is related to the rising number of countries adopting a more decentralised system. The widespread economic liberalization along with political change towards openness and democracy is one of the driving forces. In transition economies, including the transition countries in Europe and Central Asia (ECA)2 such trend was largely driven by the limited administrative and financial capacity of the center, while in some other regions the policy shift may be prompted by the collapse and erosion of central control. However, decentralization is not about weakening central authority. The important goal is to make the local government more responsive to the needs of local population. Most discussions about decentralisation accordingly center on attempts to improve the delivery of services. The countries in ECA region started the transition process with wholesale restructuring of their political systems. The discontent with welfare state institutions and the challenges that globalization processes triggered have modified the professional discourses on state, governance and democracy. The need for decentralization and devolution of power from central to local authorities has become one of the priorities in changing the state in these countries. The devolution of power necessarily intervenes with service delivery responsibilities, public finances arrangements, rebuilding central state capacities and institutions. While reasons for decentralization in the region vary, decentralization reform has been one of prevailing common prescriptions for addressing a wide range of other issues, including economic inefficiencies, macroeconomic instability, governance deficiencies, and poor delivery of public services. Interrogating some of the basic definitions on decentralization, decentralized governance and good governance and their significance for the ECA region, this paper focuses on the recent decentralization efforts made by the transition countries in ECA, concentrated around the implementation of the current decentralization agenda. It further explains why there are different approaches on the decentralization processes in these countries. At the same time, it recognizes that the decentralization everywhere is considered as a necessary mechanism to address a number of critical issues, including delivery of services. The section on legal, institutional capacities and financial resources at local level, attempts to underline the problem of limited capabilities that exists in local governments in these countries. The paper also addresses the importance of accountability and community empowerment in enhancing and improving service delivery. It suggests establishment of institutions and mechanisms to promote accountability in order to control government’s abuses and increase governments’ responsibility.
