Companies shall face competition, both at domestic and international level, which is more intensified than prior to globalization. Chinese brands are increasingly popular overseas and reaching out to compete with other global brands. Global consumers are also continuously looking up for newest product innovations yet having the lowest price tag in the market. Their search brings about knowledge and attention on Chinese brands. This research aims to analyse the influence of product innovation, country of origin, and product knowledge on purchase intention through brand attitude. To collect data, close-ended questionnaires were handed over to 100 respondents. The data were then calculated using SmartPLS 3.2.7. The findings indicated that in order to create more favourable brand attitude, a company needs to focus on efforts to generate customer memory about product specification.","PeriodicalId":30026,"journal":{"name":"Managing Global Transitions","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41728514","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 panel co-integration testing approach and panel VECM are used to investigate the long- and short-run causality between the economic growth, health expenditure and life expectancy (trivariate model). The empirical results show that there is a long-run relationship between the observed variables. It was confirmed that health is a luxury good in the long term, while it is a necessity product in the short term. Finally, it should be noted that economic policy in these countries should be directed to the targeted increase in expenditure on health care, in order to increase overall economic activity. Also, the economic policy should be oriented to adequate combination of public and private financing in health care.","PeriodicalId":30026,"journal":{"name":"Managing Global Transitions","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43999176","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}

Chinese FDI is analysed using source country comparisons, sectoral comparisons and an investigation of Chinese fdi practices. Data visualisation techniques and analyses infer similarities and differences between Chinese and other investors in Africa. These alternativ emethods are driven by the nature of the available data and its resulting statistical possibilities. The significance of this study is that it disambiguates the available data and compares along theory. Many stylised facts are assumed concerning Chinese FDI; this study, however, quantifies and tests these assumptions. The results show that China follows investment patterns of other investors, although heavily skewed towards oil, coal and gas, and other resource sectors. China otherwise tends to invest in medium growth, diversified economies, predominantly Nigeria and Egypt; except in Ethiopia where investment in communications dominates;Cameroon where chemicals dominate; Angola where investments in real estate outperform investment in the coal, oil and gas; and in South Africa and Tanzania that have a more even spread between sectors compared to the rest of the continent.","PeriodicalId":30026,"journal":{"name":"Managing Global Transitions","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45442708","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 addition, increasing complexity of global problems calls for the need of new problem solving competences. Complex problem solvers, knowledge workers, are more and more working by collaborative structures, where the solution creation benefits from multiprofessional way of working. This study is focusing on a trend of how higher education, especially in the area of computer science and engineering, is responding to the challenge of educating collaborative knowledge workers to a knowledge intensive work environment. The study was performed by a literature review covering publications indexed by the Scopus bibliographic database to find relevant research articles and reviews published between the years 2000 and 2016. The results indicate a steadily growing interest towards multi- and interdisciplinary education. Most of the interest is indicated among the health care, medicine and nursing, and social sciences disciplines, while the interest among engineering and computer science is a clear minority. The results of this article can be used to study further the unused potential of engineering and computer science for the multi- and interdisciplinary education.","PeriodicalId":30026,"journal":{"name":"Managing Global Transitions","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46025010","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}

This study examines the asymmetric pass through effects from monetary policy to house price inflation for the case of South Africa. Our study uses a momentum threshold autoregressive model and a corresponding threshold error correction model (MTAR-TECM). The empirical results reveal a negative and significant pass through from interest rates to house price inflation, even though such pass-through effects are relatively weak. Overall, these findings undermine the ability of the South African Reserve Bank (SARB) to control real house price inflation.","PeriodicalId":30026,"journal":{"name":"Managing Global Transitions","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43612007","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}

Even if the following recovery was impressive, trade growth is now noticeably below trend. The anaemic momentum in global export volume questions whether the financial crisis has permanently changed the trade landscape. In this paper, we address trade elasticities in some Central and Eastern European economies by estimating a standard import function equation. We employ a dynamic panel Auto Regressive Distributed Lag model with the Common Correlated Effects Mean Group estimator to cope with cross-sectional dependence. The model is fit on a sample of eight countries over the period 1995:q1–2017:q1. First, we estimate long-run import elasticities with respect to GDP and the relative import price. Then, we discriminate between booms and slowdowns.

However, the place of education has not been given its right place in Nigeria as reflected in the nation’s budgetary allocations. Hence, this study examined the impact of different levels of education on different components of growth in Nigeria. Data were sourced from the CBN Statistical Bulletin (see http://www.cbn.gov.ng/documents/statbulletin.asp), the Nigerian Bureau of Statistics (see http://www.nigerianstat.gov.ng) and The World Bank (see http://www.worldbank.org) from 1970–2015. The Fully Modified ols estimator was used and the results revealed that different levels of education impact at varying magnitude on each of the components of growth positively in Nigeria but the magnitude of the impact is much higher from completion rate. By implication completion rate explains growth at a higher magnitude than enrolment rates in Nigeria, therefore government should endeavour to provide modalities to curtail school dropout rate in the schooling system as a measure to boost completion rates that will facilitate growth.","PeriodicalId":30026,"journal":{"name":"Managing Global Transitions","volume":"16 1","pages":"59-77"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-03-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46269019","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 aim of the paper is to identify the changes in capital structure with regard to the recent financial crisis. The research hypothesis is that the leverage would decrease during crisis period and increase after crisis. In the paper the impact of financial crisis on capital structure was analysed on four sets of data: data for all companies of the whole economy, panel data of Polish listed companies, panel data of Polish listed companies with the lowest debt ratio in 2005 (panel A) and panel data of Polish listed companies with the highest debt ratio in 2005 (panel B). The descriptive statistics and the statistical testing of the differences were employed. The multivariate regression analysis was also employed to identify how different factors affect the capital structure. The main finding of the paper is that Polish companies generally did not change their capital structure during financial crisis time. This is especially true for the panel sample and panel B, while companies from panel A increase their debt ratio despite financial crisis.","PeriodicalId":30026,"journal":{"name":"Managing Global Transitions","volume":"16 1","pages":"19-35"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-03-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42919365","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}
