The results suggest that the online channel usage of a manufacturing enterprise will have a positive effect on its practice of incremental innovation and the interaction between the company of its customers will be a partial mediator.

The principal aims of this study are: a) to complement the existing literature surveys in the BI area by identifying publications for the period 2007 to 2020, b) to classify these publications according to nine research strategies, c) to classify them according to various well-defined research topic categories, and d) apply machine learning techniques to assess their relevance with the BI field. We have collect 332 papers using ‘Google Scholar’ and a set of related keywords to the field of BI. The results show that most of the papers appeared during the years 2015 and 2017 [1]. The classifications of the literature based on research strategies and research topic indicate that most papers address formal theory and/or reviews and belong to the “benefits” research topic category. Finally, we attempt to increase the accuracy of the classification of aggregated information by utilizing machine learning techniques and estimating the “relevance” with respect to BI discipline. It appears that the overall best individual classifier is the SVM polynomial with ROSE sampling on 80% of the original data using the ‘TDM’ feature space, following by the Neural Networks with ROSE sampling on 80% of the original data using the ‘Topic’ feature space.

This article attempts to stimulate discussions on policies to enable Basel III deliver on its goals in Sierra Leone. It elucidates on the significance and plausible strategies for implementing Basel III to facilitate delivery. Within this space the banking sector is anticipated to prop-up capital quality and quantity, propelling minimum liquidity requirement for banks, dampening systemic risks and enabling a smooth transition to Basel III Capital Framework. This study emphasizes a cooling-off period to adopting Basel III framework in Sierra Leone, a fine mix of micro and macro prudential regulations required to be deployed and ; the drive to fortify banks’ balance sheet in lieu of Basel III capital and liquidity framework adoption. This article recommends that the Sierra Leone’s Central Bank should boost market discipline and bolster effective and fficient supervision within the Basel perimeter. The need for cross-border supervision amongst domestics and foreign banks is more so portended. Furthermore, the Central Bank should also stand ready to always protect depositors’ funds and deploy crises management strategies including emergency liquidity support amongst others.","PeriodicalId":309331,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Economics & Management Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126068757","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 government of the federal republic of Nigeria invested financial, human and material resources in it so that its objectives could be achieved. However, two decades after its implementation, the nation is yet to overcome most of economic and socio-political challenges it was meant to address. This could be due to poor quality graduates turned out from basic education institutions in particular and all level of education in general. Thus, there is need to investigate the quality management process in education system. Basic education provides the foundation for other levels of education and its quality would determine, to a large extent, the quality of education at higher levels.

The stationarity test result shows that the order of integration of variables included in the model was a mixture of I (0) and I (1). Therefore, the study employs the bounds testing approach to Cointegration and error correction models developed within the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) framework to explore the long-and short-run effects of financial sector development on economic growth. The study uses two different measures of financial development including, credit to the private sector and broad money. The study also investigates whether there are other determinants of economic growth. Evidence of short-run dynamics was found amongst the various financial development indicators and economic growth. The results showed that credit to the private sector and broad money influenced economic growth in the short-run. Again, inflation and government consumption expenditure were found to impede economic growth in the short-run. Contrarily, Gross capital formation and FDI were found to stimulate economic growth in the short-run. The study recommends that policy makers should take caution in the choice of financial development indicator as a policy instrument for the attainment of growth and development.
