The methodology employs a two-stage least squares technique, incorporating fixed effects and an instrumental variable approach, to analyze the regression results obtained from ordinary least squares. The results indicate that the level of influence exerted by peers is significant for a firm when determining its own level of leverage. Furthermore, it has been noted that enterprises tend to adopt similar cultural traits as their peers, such as minimal power distance, high uncertainty avoidance, individualism and masculinity. Hence, managers may consider their peers’ decisions on leverage in the industry while making assessments about the appropriate level of leverage for their own company. Furthermore, as emerging economies often encounter perplexing and uncertain circumstances, obtaining reliable information from peers’ financial decisions can potentially mitigate the duration and cost associated with making this crucial decision.","PeriodicalId":47569,"journal":{"name":"Global Business Review","volume":"19 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-04-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140596463","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}

To contribute to the United Nations’ sustainable development goals for 2019, companies have begun to focus on green human resource initiatives to promote green perspectives in their employees. In this regard, green human resource management may assist companies in motivating their employees towards environmentally friendly practices, but green perceived organisational support remains unexplored in this context. To address this gap, based on the theory of planned behaviour, this study aims to investigate the effect of green human resource management on employee green behaviour through the mediation effect of green perceived organisational support in the higher education sector of Pakistan. The questionnaire survey was used to collect data from the employees of the higher education sector. Findings show that green human resource management is a strong predictor of employee green behaviour, while green perceived organisational support is a significant mediator between green human resource management and employee green behaviour.

Accordingly, this study espouses a mixed-method research design to address this issue. The authors collected data from 24 and 112 social entrepreneurs in two study phases, respectively. Four support factors—business, market, financial and policy were considered important by social entrepreneurs in India that they believe influenced their choice of business models. While policy and financial support factors were considered most important by social entrepreneurs with a pure social mission/impact orientation, market and business support were considered significant influential factors by social entrepreneurs with a profit orientation. Social entrepreneurs who sought a balance between social and economic missions, however, considered the presence of financial and market support to be crucial for choosing a relevant business model. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study that investigates the inherent priori influence of prevalent ecosystem factors on social business model selection. It uniquely brings out an empirical association between ecosystem factors and business model preferences, affirming that factors pivotal to choice also underpin sustainability. Moreover, this study also unveils an interactive framework encompassing entrepreneur traits and their orientations, ecosystem factors, feedback and performance. Offering multiple actionable implications, this study offers key insights for policy decision-makers and practitioners.","PeriodicalId":47569,"journal":{"name":"Global Business Review","volume":"31 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-03-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140204296","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}

These indices aim to aid investors in navigating and assessing the risks associated with firms based on ESG factors and potential investment returns. The objective of the article is to predict ESG stock indices using a machine learning approach. We use daily data of Dow Jones Sustainability Index (DJSI) World, DJSI Asia Pacific and DJSI Emerging Market from 2018 to 2022 as samples. Two-layer ensemble model – combination of support vector machine (SVM), random forest (RF), long short-term memory (LSTM) and gated recurrent unit (GRU) algorithms – is employed to forecast the indices. The results show that the ensemble model accurately forecasts the indices, with the prediction line closely matching the actual values. It gives the implication that investors are able to improve investment decisions, assist in managing investment risk, and optimize their portfolio diversification. Meanwhile, policymakers are able to anticipate economic trends, inflation and interest rates, assisting in the development of successful economic policies.This research article presents a machine learning approach for predicting ESG stock indices. The proposed model combines SVM, RF, LSTM and GRU algorithms to create a powerful two-layer ensemble model that outperforms individual models. The results show that the ensemble model accurately forecasts ESG stock indices, with the prediction line closely matching the actual values. The model offers insights into the behaviour of different algorithms, highlighting their strengths and limitations. The proposed model can guide decision-making processes, support investment strategies, and ultimately contribute to advancing sustainable investment practices.","PeriodicalId":47569,"journal":{"name":"Global Business Review","volume":"9 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-03-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140204376","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 sample of S&P BSE 100 Indian firms for five financial years has been used to examine the aforementioned relationship, using panel regression analysis. The findings reveal that CEO overconfidence favourably impacts the company&’s profitability as overconfident CEOs enjoy the early mover advantage in the market through quick and innovative decisions and gain competitive strength by overinvesting in good but risky projects. These findings contribute novel insights to the existing literature by exploring the most prevalent managerial behavioural bias and its impact on corporate profitability in the Indian context.

By using pooled ordinary least squares, fixed effect and random effect model, the study examines the impact of infant mortality, birth rate and death rate on gross state domestic product per capita at a constant price. The study takes gross capital formation and gross enrolment ratio as control variables. Data from the Reserve Bank of India and EPWRF states of India were retrieved and used in the study. The result shows that health outcomes and economic growth have a relatively substantial and significant association with each other. The results demonstrate that economic growth increases by 1% with a decrease in infant mortality rate by its elasticity coefficient –0.32. The results show that economic growth will increase by 1% with the increase in birth rate, gross enrolment ratio and gross fixed capital formation by its slope coefficients, that is, 0.10, 0.32 and 1.78 which are statistically significant at 1%, 5% and 1% level of significance. The finding of the study demonstrates that health outcomes remain a vital determinant in improving economic growth among the northern states. Our results advocate that the government spending on health should be improved; moreover, the government should frame health policies to boost health outcomes to level the disparities in health outcomes among the northern states of India.","PeriodicalId":47569,"journal":{"name":"Global Business Review","volume":"70 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-03-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140169526","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 mergers and acquisitions, Indian banks play a critical role. The study aimed to discover, determine, and create an empirical model that evaluates the interdependence and interaction of enablers. Through literature and unstructured interviews, 10 enablers influencing Indian banks’ financing decisions for merger and acquisition transactions were identified. Total interpretive structural modelling (TISM) and the Matrice d’Impacts Croisés Multiplication Appliqués à un Classement (MICMAC) technique establish the relationship between identified enablers. Governance and regulatory framework, political stability, and economic stability are major independent enablers for financing mergers and acquisitions. Transparency and disclosure, infrastructure, technical skills, and information communication technology act as linkage enablers for the participation of banks in merger and acquisition transactions. The study makes a novel contribution by identifying enablers through a literature search and ‘experts’ opinions. The TISM model determines the priority of the enablers by displaying hierarchical interconnection and dependency. This study reviews the literature to generalize the findings and focus on significant drivers for increased investment. To encourage merger and acquisition activity, practitioners must focus on elements with significant driving power. It will assist the practitioners, managers, and authorities in prioritizing their efforts.","PeriodicalId":47569,"journal":{"name":"Global Business Review","volume":"205 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-03-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140071361","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 analyzes the determinants of profitability of the industry during 2010–2022 using the conventional structure-conduct-performance paradigm. We estimate a dynamic panel data model to understand the role of endogeneity and profit persistence in the industry. Our findings are contrary to what the theory predicts and highlight the importance of the regulatory and institutional framework of the industry. Results suggest that there is profit persistence in the industry. The study finds that among conduct variables, export intensity has a positive impact while selling intensity has a negative impact on profitability. While size is not significant, concentration has a negative impact on profitability. Import has a negative impact on profitability. These results suggest that as the telecom industry transitioned from a monopoly to an oligopolistic market with players competing in different domains and services, selling and advertisement intensity has diminishing returns to profitability while export intensity emerges as an important driver of profitability. Results also suggest the importance of the production-linked incentive scheme encouraging exports and the need for regulating concentration and encouraging import substitution.","PeriodicalId":47569,"journal":{"name":"Global Business Review","volume":"23 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-03-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140033129","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}
