While the relationship between competition and managerial incentives is mostly found to be ambiguous in theory, testing it empirically has been challenged by the lack of robust quantitative data. Using a survey on Small and Medium-sized Enterprises from Burkina Faso, we measure management quality, building on the Management and Organizational Practices Survey, and find suggestive evidence that management quality increases with competition. Although the results are robust across a range of measures of competition and sub-indicators of management quality, no significant association is observed in larger firms.","PeriodicalId":45470,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of the Economics of Business","volume":"11 1","pages":"161 - 182"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2022-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82873609","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 particular, the paper presents novel insight concerning strategic behaviour between firms. New evidence is presented on how pricing strategy is used to divert high-cost customers to rivals, making rivals less competitive, allowing the firm using the price diversion strategy to raise prices.

Following the federalism model (New State Ice Co. vs Liebmann; Cheng and Lee 2019), the 50 states and their governors and legislators made many of their own pandemic policy choices to mitigate the damage from the virus. States learned from one another over time about what policies worked most and least effectively in terms of containing the virus while minimizing the negative effects of lockdown strategies on businesses and children. This study is an expanded and updated version of an October 2020 report card of how pandemic health, economy, and policy varied across the 50 states and the District of Columbia (Committee to Unleash Prosperity 2020). It examines three variables: health outcomes, economic performance throughout the pandemic, and impact on education. We find no relationship between reduced economic activity during the pandemic and mortality.","PeriodicalId":45470,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of the Economics of Business","volume":"14 1","pages":"139 - 158"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2022-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82732034","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}

We employ a survival analysis approach with a non-parametric hazard rate to investigate whether the probability of a property to exit the market changes across calendar months. Our unique dataset comes from Zoopla.com and contains 300,198 rental listings in 13 major UK university cities over the 2015–2017 period. Our results suggest that the probability of exit is lower during the winter season compared to summer. This could be explained by students’ higher housing demand at the start of the academic term. The results become more pronounced (i.e. the seasonal difference is higher) when the distance between marketed property and university campuses is taken into account.","PeriodicalId":45470,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of the Economics of Business","volume":"38 1","pages":"223 - 239"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2022-02-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88063411","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 most recent research has shown that lockdowns have had, at best, a marginal effect on the number of Covid-19 deaths. Generally speaking, the ineffectiveness stemmed from individual changes in behavior: either non-compliance or behavior that mimicked lockdowns. The limited effectiveness of lockdowns explains why, after more than one year, the unconditional cumulative Covid-19 deaths per million is not negatively correlated with the stringency of lockdown across countries. Using a method proposed by Professor Bryan Caplan along with estimates of lockdown benefits based on the econometric evidence, I calculate a number of cost/benefit ratios of lockdowns in terms of life-years saved. Using a mid-point estimate for costs and benefits, the reasonable estimate for Canada is a cost/benefit ratio of 141. It is possible that lockdown will go down as one of the greatest peacetime policy failures in modern history.","PeriodicalId":45470,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of the Economics of Business","volume":"156 1","pages":"1 - 32"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2021-09-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78085601","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 main reason for using HLM in this case is that observations in the same group may not be independent from each other (e.g. firms operate within the same city), and some variables may not vary across those observations. Although most of the findings are consistent with previous studies, the statistical power of our HLM model is higher than that of the traditional single-level analysis, suggesting that HLM can provide better analytical insights. The results further indicate a case for cities or provinces pursuing different policies aimed at improving the performance of their local firms.","PeriodicalId":45470,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of the Economics of Business","volume":"46 12","pages":"457 - 470"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2021-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72366978","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}

First, based on multi-variate Industrial Competitiveness Index (ICI), the result reveals that capital-intensive firms are more competitive than labor-intensive firms. Second, the results also indicate that foreign-owned firms are more competitive than domestic firms. Third, the determinants of competitiveness derived from Feasible Generalized Least Squares (FGLS) and dynamic panel GMM model indicate that the firms' external factors such as Information and Communication Technology (ICT) and infrastructure positively affect manufacturing firms' competitiveness. However, internal factors such as firm age and debt have a negative effect on Indian manufacturing firms' competitiveness, but the lag effect of R&D intensity and advertisement intensity has a positive impact on firms' competitiveness.

Surprisingly, the literature has only discussed the two strategies separately, and there appears little effort in considering both strategies simultaneously, at least in the investigation of their intertwined impact on bank performance. We adopt System Generalized Method of Moments for a panel dataset covering commercial banks in Vietnam to investigate the impact of these diversification strategies on bank performance. The research findings suggest that multimarket contact has a positive impact on performance, supporting the mutual forbearance hypothesis. Income diversification is also positively related to bank profitability. Importantly, our results show that the interaction between multimarket contact and income diversification has a negative effect on bank profitability. This evidence implies that facing with multimarket contacts, a bank with diversified businesses is more likely to choose to compete, thus raising the competition and lowering its profitability.","PeriodicalId":45470,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of the Economics of Business","volume":"47 1","pages":"439 - 455"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2021-08-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83259954","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}
