The bound test procedure to cointegration was adopted and the nexus between oil shock and trade balance was examined within the autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) framework. Additionally, the augmented Dickey-Fuller approach to unit root was used in determining the degree of integration of the series. Certain findings were made from the analyses. First, the study confirmed that there is long-run relationship among the variables. Second, oil price hikes lead to a surplus trade balance in the long run, but only insignificantly. Contrariwise, the positive impact of oil price hikes on the trade balance in the short run was significant. Third, the study found that inflation had an insignificant positive effect on the trade balance. Fourth, the estimation revealed that an increase in real effective exchange rate and trade openness is insignificant and lead to a deficit trade balance in the long run. The study recommends that domestic oil shocks in the form of low oil production should be mitigated by addressing the security challenges in the country.","PeriodicalId":486962,"journal":{"name":"IIARD INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ECONOMICS AND BUSINESS MANAGEMENT","volume":" 47","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139790658","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 specific objectives are to determine the effects of multilateral debt service, total debt service and external debt stocks on gross domestic product (GDP) growth. Time series data required for the investigation were sourced from the World Development Indicators and International Debt Statistics. The data analysis techniques include descriptive statistics, unit root tests, Johansen cointegration test and parsimonious error correction model (ECM) in addition to the post- estimation tests. The unit root results showed that all the variables are stationary at first difference. In other words, this finding revealed that the variables are integrated into order one [I(1)]. Evidence of two cointegrating equations was established from the Johansen cointegration test results, which implies that GDP growth has a long-run relationship with multilateral debt service, total debt service and external debt stocks. The parsimonious ECM showed that multilateral debt service has a negative and significant effect on GDP growth. This implies that an increase in multilateral debt service is detrimental to economic growth. The results further showed that total debt service and external debt stocks negatively and significantly impacted GDP growth. This finding indicates that Nigeria has not productively utilized the growing stocks of foreign loans to enhance its contributions to economic growth. The error correction parameter (-0.432) is negative and significant, which suggests that short-run disequilibrium can adjust to a long-run equilibrium position at a speed of 43.2 per cent. Based on the findings, this study concludes that debt servicing undermines the growth of the Nigerian economy. Thus, it is recommended that among others the government should gradually reduce its debt stock to reduce the total debt service obligations and make more resources available for economic grow","PeriodicalId":486962,"journal":{"name":"IIARD INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ECONOMICS AND BUSINESS MANAGEMENT","volume":"25 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139850021","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 study specifically evaluates the effect of oil spillage, gas flaring, water pollution and energy consumption disclosures on the corporate performance of quoted oil and gas firms in Nigeria. The study adopted the ex- post facto research design. The population was drawn from the ten quoted oil and gas companies listed on the Nigerian Exchange Group (NGX) as of 1st June 2022. The final sample was delimited to eight firms with annual financial information for the study period. The study relied on secondary sources of data, i.e., from annual financial statements of the oil and gas firms. The data were analysed using descriptive and inferential statistical techniques. The hypotheses were tested using the pooled OLS technique consistent with prior authors on disclosure measurements. The results showed that oil spillage disclosure has a positive non- significant effect on Tobin’s Q; there is a positive and significant effect of gas flaring disclosure on Tobin’s Q; water pollution disclosure has a negative and significant effect on Tobin’s Q; and, there is a positive non-significant effect of energy consumption disclosure on Tobin’s Q. Based on the above the study recommended that shareholders should monitor compliance of managers with the numerous laws and strategies used to reduce GHG flaring and the resulting carbon emissions in the company. Managers develop a water pollution system for managing their negative environmental impact on water. Regulators should constantly monitor firms with excessive energy consumption to pay relevant fees and fines which can encourage the move to sustainable energy consumption.","PeriodicalId":486962,"journal":{"name":"IIARD INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ECONOMICS AND BUSINESS MANAGEMENT","volume":" 81","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139788070","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}
