However, there is a dearth of academic research about ESG with regards to private capital investing. This literature review adopted a mixed-methods approach, combining a quantitative (bibliometric) analysis with a qualitative review of the articles. It was found that less than 1% of the literature, written in English, between 1960-2020 on private equity and venture capital addresses topics related to sustainability. It was also observed that the 46 papers which address sustainability topics can be categorized into 13 themes, including certifications and standards, impact investing, and corporate social responsibility. Investment in private securities grew at twice the rate as public securities during the end of this time-period and interest in sustainability integration in private capital investing is growing. Incentives for private equity and venture firms to engage with sustainable investments are being driven by institutional investors, such as pension funds and insurance companies. The focus of sustainability research has typically been on public markets, hindering the potential of private capital investment to influence sustainable policy and practices. The objective of this paper is to provide evidence of the dearth of academic literature on the topic of private capital markets and sustainable investment, while identifying current themes in the existing literature so that future work may address gaps in research.","PeriodicalId":36330,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Management and Sustainability","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89171499","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 research intends to evaluate: (1) the influences of training and development and the components of human governance (i.e., transformational leadership, integrity and collectivism) on the corporate sustainability; (2) the impact of the components of human governance on training and development; and (3) the role of training and development in mediating the relationship between the components of human governance and corporate sustainability. Through an online questionnaire survey, 283 responses were collected from the Malaysia construction industry by using non-probability sampling technique. Statistical inferential analyses were carried out by utilising both SPSS Version 25.0 and SmartPLS 3.0. The results represented a significant positive relationship between the components of human governance, training and development, and corporate sustainability. This research also found that only transformational leadership and integrity (but not collectivism) have positive relationship on training and development. The research findings likewise evinced that training and development partially mediates the relationship between the components of human governance (i.e., transformational leadership and integrity but not collectivism) and corporate sustainability. This research contributes an unabridged theoretical perspective on corporate sustainability by providing a deeper understanding of how training and development and the components of human governance determine corporate sustainability as well as the relationships between transformational leadership, integrity and collectivism with corporate sustainability through the mediating role of training and development. Lastly, this research also promotes a better system and policies for organisations to achieve their goals of corporate sustainability.","PeriodicalId":36330,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Management and Sustainability","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90309542","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 employs the fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (FAHP) in which the elements of the pairwise comparison matrix are expressed by triangular fuzzy elements. Furthermore, the classical non-fuzzy methods, such as the eigenvector and geometric mean, were also employed to calculate the weights of the fuzzy comparison matrices. First, some existing literature on CSR and its impact on the internal and external environments were explored. Second, the FAHP goal and the criteria were established, and this was followed by the pairwise comparison using the linguistic scale. Next is the computation of the geometric magnitude and weight of each criterion. Thereafter, the defuzzified and normalized weights were obtained. In the order of priority of CSR activities and their impact on the four identified criteria, alternative 1 (company 1) is ranked first, followed by alternative 2 (company 2), and alternative 3 (company 3) is ranked last. The implementation of CSR activities for companies 1 and 2 reflect positively in their internal and external environments, although to varying degrees. This study provides a practical guided approach for the use of the FAHP for solving a multi-criteria decision, such as ranking the impact of CSR activities in relation to certain criteria. The outcome of this study can guide organizations in making informed decisions regarding the implementation of CSR activities.","PeriodicalId":36330,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Management and Sustainability","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75477821","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 phenomenon and its longer-term impacts are still under-researched and remain unexplored in emerging countries, particularly Malaysia. Therefore, the current study intended to determine the actions taken by Malaysian organizations, specifically in their accounting and finance functions, in response to the COVID-19 crisis. Online survey questionnaires were distributed to collect data. The questionnaires comprised several sections, including demographic information of the respondents and factors affecting users’ intentions to use technology for accounting and finance functions in the face of the COVID-19 crisis. This research adopted the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) model as a theoretical basis from which to evaluate the research objectives. The findings showed that only performance expectancy is related to user intention, while other factors, such as effort, attitude, social influence, self-efficacy, and anxiety, display the opposite effect. This empirical study suggests that accounting and finance functions in Malaysia still lag behind in terms of the technology used by employees. In addition, organizations, particularly government departments, are not ready to adopt a fully integrated scientific accounting and finance system.","PeriodicalId":36330,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Management and Sustainability","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72849302","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}

Logistics processes in particular take up a lot of space and have a significant impact on the environment. The question is how this use of land can be optimised. Based on a systematic literature review and interviews with experts in the period between May 2021 and July 2021, this paper presents indicators that constitute or influence space-efficient logistics in the context of cooperation. The results show that in addition to the established cooperation characteristics, there are other indicators that are directly related to land use. In the logistics sector, there is strong competitive pressure and, as a result, little trust between companies. It has been shown that with the help of a neutral moderator, the gap between trusting, land-efficient cooperation and one’s own entrepreneurial interests can be narrowed, and cooperation can be profitable for all participants. In addition, digitisation actually does not seem to be sufficient to meet the information needs of a cooperation. The exchange of information not only serves to automate processes, but also makes cooperation more transparent. It shows that legal and municipal requirements need to be developed. It also becomes clear that the indicators have a mutual influence on each other and cannot be considered in isolation when it comes to the actual implementation of a cooperation. By increasing the efficiency of cooperative processes and value creation, it offers the opportunity to make land use more sustainable.","PeriodicalId":36330,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Management and Sustainability","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82773272","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}

Their dynamics and statistical characteristics have become crucial to financial research. Furthermore, in the connected world of today, the importance of uncertainties is greater than ever. This article examines the comovements between energy commodities and the influence of uncertainty measures through the bi, partial and multiple wavelet techniques. We show the significance of uncertainties by highlighting their influence on financial decisions. To measure uncertainty, we use GEPU, OVX, and VIX. By using the wavelet approaches, we examine how energy commodities interact in both the time and frequency domains, which helps us better comprehend interdependencies. The results show that most energy commodities display high comovements in the short-, and long-terms, except with natural gas. According to the partial wavelet, OVX has the most significant impact on the connectedness amongst energy commodities. For the wavelet multiple cross-correlations, Petroleum maximises the multiple cross-correlations at most scales (short, medium and long terms) followed by Brent crude with a potential to lead or lag. These findings have substantial policy implications for policymakers as well as meaning for investors.","PeriodicalId":36330,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Management and Sustainability","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90390429","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 management and use of this waste is of global interest. The aim of this study was to evaluate the spatio-temporal evolution of scientific knowledge on the reuse of agroindustrial waste generated in Brazil through a scientometric analysis. To this end, a search was performed in the databases Scopus, Scielo, and Web of Science between the years 1991and 2021. The words used as indexers were agribusiness waste, vegetable waste, fruit waste, biomass waste, plant residue, and chemical characterization. The following selection criteria were adopted: search of indexers by title, scientific articles, articles in English and Portuguese, and articles on plant waste generated in Brazil. There was an increase in publications over the years, with a greater number of studies (21.46%) in the chemistry area, addressing mainly the physical-chemical characterization of materials. In Brazil, sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum L.) was the most studied species with a view to reusing its residues. We identified species from highly threatened Brazilian biomes, such as the Atlantic Forest and Cerrado, with the potential for transformation into new materials. The gaps in knowledge, evidenced in this analysis, suggest that more studies should be carried out on residues of native plant species which impact local communities. In particular, studies could focus on applicability in health and cosmetics, which are promising areas for plant materials and still little investigated.","PeriodicalId":36330,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Management and Sustainability","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77143945","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}
