The study utilizes symmetric and asymmetric DCC-EGARCH model to estimate correlation dynamics. Evidence suggests that the volatility and dynamic correlation linkages between commodities and equity markets are significantly affected by the triggering events. The time-varying correlations of Comdex-Nifty 50 show an unintended steep decline in the post-CTT period. It is an indication of a “flight to quality” phenomenon, where investors move capital from non-agricultural commodity futures to other cross markets and international markets. However, DCC of Comdex-Dhaanya pair is highly volatile in the post-CTT period and also noticed an increased correlation and volatility between the Dhaanya-Nifty 50 pair. Moreover, the correlation dynamics reveal a certain degree of interdependence between the cross markets, which are lower especially during the triggering episodes.","PeriodicalId":409651,"journal":{"name":"Int.

The research was designed based on the literature review that in turn resulted in a research model that focused on six constructs: reciprocity, loyalty, habit, switching costs, trust, and future repurchase. Hypotheses were developed as the basis for a scaled survey of 1050 Philippine smartphone users, with the questions adapted from but adhering closely to the original questions from appropriate articles in the literature review. Overall the mediating effects from the two models are consistent with the expectations from the literature and analysis. In the Philippine context, habit might be a strong mediator even if the true financial and convenience costs to switch is low.","PeriodicalId":409651,"journal":{"name":"Int. J. Asian Bus. Inf.

Almost all the literature emphasized the role of institutional quality on development. However, a possible question still remains unsettled what would be the optimum or threshold level of institutional quality that would create a milieu of least possible capital flight. The purpose of this study is to find the threshold value of institutional quality indicators and its impact on the capital flight of Bangladesh. Using the ICRG and WGI governance data over the period 1989 to 2016, the nonlinear regression proved that up to certain threshold level of institutional quality, interest rate differential reduces while economic growth stimulates net capital flight (NCF) of Bangladesh. Additionally, up to a certain threshold, level of corruption and interest rate differential lower NCF while beyond that level no effect exists. However, none of those independent variables affects NCF whenever the role of government stability threshold is considered.","PeriodicalId":409651,"journal":{"name":"Int. J. Asian Bus. Inf.

While this is an attractive option, there are a number of perceived risks attached to it. This study aims to examine factors that can influence the attractiveness of green banking services, alongside explaining associated risks for its adoption in Bangladesh. Findings indicate that clients are mostly attracted to green banking services due to its social and task attractiveness. However, perceived risks like financial, time, individual, and cyber risks often hamper this attractiveness. Overall results confirm the relationship between perceived risk and attractiveness and their subsequent influence upon client's behavioral intention towards green banking services.
