In line with this purpose, this study seeks answers to some questions, whether vaccination supports the recovery of financial markets or not, and in which direction the effect is similar in the context of developed and developing countries, considering the United States and China samples. Fourier-based cointegration and causality tests were used to reveal the effect of COVID-19 vaccination on stock markets in the paper, which used daily data between March-2021 and September-2022. According to the results vaccination rates triggered the stock market prices in the U.S.A.. Moreover obtained findings show that the Chinese stock market and COVID-19 vaccination act together in the long term during the data range examined. Finally, it seems possible to state that it would be beneficial for investors investing in both the U.S.A. and China markets.","PeriodicalId":45444,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Chinese Economic and Business Studies","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49619459","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 article reviews recent developments of generative AI in business and finance, summarizes its practical applications, provides examples of the latest generative AI tools, and demonstrates that generative AI can revolutionize data analysis in industry and academia. To test the ability of generative AI to support decision-making in financial markets, we use the ChatGPT to capture corporate sentiments towards environmental policy by inputting text extracted from corporate financial statements. Our results demonstrate that the sentiment scores generated by ChatGPT can predict firms’ risk-management capabilities and stock return performance. This study also highlights the potential challenges and limitations associated with generative AI. Finally, we propose several questions for future research at the intersection of generative AI with business and finance.","PeriodicalId":45444,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Chinese Economic and Business Studies","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48777098","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}

Defenders of capitalism reply that profits are essential to a well-functioning economy; they fund future investment by companies and provide returns to shareholders, such as households and pension funds. Both views are based on the pie-splitting mentality, that the value created by a company is a fixed pie that shareholders and society fight over. This article describes the pie-growing mentality, that shareholders and society are not in conflict. By having a purpose – being driven by the desire to create value for society – companies grow the pie, increasing shareholders as well as stakeholder value. It discusses how companies can put purpose into practice and how citizens can play their part.","PeriodicalId":45444,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Chinese Economic and Business Studies","volume":"21 1","pages":"465 - 469"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46630866","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 closes the knowledge gap for Germany by employing a unique combination of datasets, the survey data from the German Socio-Economic Panel and disaggregated information at low geographical levels from the last two but still unexploited full German censuses, 1970 and 1987. Utilizing the exogenous placement of immigrants during the recruitment era in the 1960s and 1970s we find that local co-ethnic concentration affects immigrants’ ethnic identity. While residential ethnic clustering strengthens immigrants’ retention of an affiliation with their origin (minority identity), it weakens identification with the host society (majority identity). The effects are nonlinear and become significant only at relatively high levels of co-ethnic concentration for the minority identity and at very low levels of local concentration for the majority identity. The findings are robust to an instrumental variable approach.","PeriodicalId":45444,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Chinese Economic and Business Studies","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135493335","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}

A review of 154 publications taken from management and innovation journals makes us identify four dimensions of ‘resource-related’ organizational factors that can determine OI: resource investment (what or how many resources are being invested), organizational structure (where resources are being attributed), human capital (who or what individual-level characteristics are) and the attitudes of individuals (how resources are being treated). We also identify core theoretical lenses and propose moderating and mediating mechanisms that can explain the relationship between the dimensions and OI. Based on this, we generate a literature framework and propose that the effects of organizational factors on the implementation of OI can be achieved by influencing firms’ dynamic abilities, and that these effects vary across costs-related contingencies. We also suggest several directions for addressing relevant unexplored questions within the framework.","PeriodicalId":45444,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Chinese Economic and Business Studies","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135473342","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}

Unlike existing studies which have employed efficiency in a broad way, it is decomposed into five different types, that is, technical, pure technical, scale, cost and revenue efficiency. Using a two-step system GMM on 149 banks with 1,805 observations over the period 2001–2018, empirical findings reveal that the joint effect of market power and bank efficiency is critical on financial stability and the effect varies with the specific type of efficiency being explored. Increased market power is observed to have a direct positive effect on bank stability. With respect to bank efficiency, cost and revenue efficiency have a positive significant effect with bank stability while the effect of technical, pure technical and scale efficiency is insignificant. In overall, concentrated banks with higher cost and revenue efficiency are more stable compared to the inefficient banks. The findings highlight that an eclectic policy to ensure a trade-off between bank concentration and competition should be ensured by the bank regulators.","PeriodicalId":45444,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Chinese Economic and Business Studies","volume":"21 1","pages":"403 - 428"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44835047","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}
