It demonstrates that it is challenging to change from transactional to transformational leadership and argues that the failure of developing high-tech industries in Hong Kong is partially attributable to the lack of transformational political and business leaderships. The political leaders' ineffectiveness in developing hightech industries in Hong Kong is also attributable to the regional/national/international institutional structural forces that have created both opportunities and challenges. This study contributes to the discussion on the critical value of transformational place leadership for creating new local/regional economic growth path and the embeddedness of place leadership in local/regional/national political and economic institutions.","PeriodicalId":498413,"journal":{"name":"Regional economic development research","volume":"21 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140746903","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}

Using the feasible generalized least squares (GLS) panel method for the period 1996-2021, we find that an increase in external debt contributes to the worsening poverty headcount ratio in the region. Then, enhancing governance while borrowing external funds does improve the poverty level. The regression shows that in West African Countries, governance indicators as well as the composite index of governance and the interaction term (governance composite index* external debt) contribute significantly to the reduction of the poverty rate. Therefore, there is a need for West African governments to be cautious when borrowing external funds and work towards sustainable debt management to prevent negative effects on poverty rates. In addition, the level of good governance should be improved in external debt management and poverty ratio reduction.","PeriodicalId":498413,"journal":{"name":"Regional economic development research","volume":"7 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140248585","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 reveals that COVID-19 crisis induced the European governments to launch innovative bonds such as social and sustainability bonds to meet large public finances for pandemic and post-pandemic recovery actions, while issuance of green bonds in ASEAN region has been quite slow but remained positive despite declining trend in global market in 2020. Robust policies and regulations have been developed and implemented in the EU and ASEAN regions, whereas development of green bond markets in South Asian countries has been facing numerous barriers. The roadmap to promote green bond markets in South Asia should focus on following broad policy issues: primary policies, established instruments, innovative products and new strategies. The primary policy options should focus on building and strengthening infrastructure for development of green bond markets. In this context, the policies should focus on developing a shelf of climate-compatible green projects to achieve inclusive and sustainable post-COVID-19 recovery and to meet the sustainable development goals. Local bond markets should be bolstered to issue innovative green bonds and tactical public green bonds to finance the post-COVID-19 recovery in South Asian countries. The compatible EU and ASEAN green bond standards should be replicated with suitable modifications to develop South Asian country-specific green and sustainable bond standards.","PeriodicalId":498413,"journal":{"name":"Regional economic development research","volume":"57 165","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139007952","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}
