{"title":"Exploring the impact of Social Media Platforms on Instigating Tourist’s Emotions and Behavioral Intentions to Co-Create and Visit Tourist Spots- Bangladesh Perspective","authors":"M. Hossain, Md. Soleman Mollik","doi":"10.58753/jbspust.3.1.2022.13","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.58753/jbspust.3.1.2022.13","url":null,"abstract":"Purpose: The study aims to investigate how social media platforms (SMPs) affect the tourist community to evoke emotions and behavioral intention to create tourism value and visit well-known tourist spots in Bangladesh. Methodology: Using 5 points Likert Scale, the survey data of 550 respondents have been collected and analyzed finally and 84 responses have been discarded due to being incomplete in nature. SPSS 23.0 version has been adopted to analyze the variables. Findings: The results show that SMPs significantly affect the emotions of tourists in terms of joy, love, positive surprise, and subsequently drive the behavioral intention of co-creation and visit the preferable tourist spots. In some prior studies, the effect of joy was revealed as insignificant in this regard. However, in this study, the effect of joy is a very significant one to instigate the tourist’s emotions and behavior. Practical Implications: The contribution of this study is mainly two-fold. Firstly, from the theoretical perspective, it has been found that SMPs and destination brand preferences have an insightful relationship. Secondly, the authorities in charge of the destination can concentrate on setting up efficient social media platforms to generate more insightful information about destination brands, leading to the development of feelings and intentions to co-create and visit the spots. Originality: This study has been conducted as our own and not copied from any source. This would add new knowledge to the tourism sectors of Bangladesh focusing on SMPs. Limitations: This study focuses mostly on the people using SMPs to co-create and visit the destinations. The results may not be alike for the people who don’t use SMPs for tourism purposes. The bigger sample size could generate more specific results in this regard. Future research can be conducted focusing on other emotional variables like anxiety, boredom, and well-being.","PeriodicalId":55618,"journal":{"name":"South Asian Journal of Business Studies","volume":"8 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88994530","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}

Design/ methodology/ approach – This study’s data collection and analysis employed an exploratory research design. The investigation included both a literature review and an empirical investigation. This survey's empirical data were gathered through the use of a structured questionnaire pertaining to the study's factors involved. Findings – The total average of \"agree\" and \"strongly agree\" answers about the perceived employment crisis is 79.83%. The possible risk of poverty is 80%, getting help from institutions is 69.46%, and the ability to find a job during and after graduation is 84.36% according to the results of the study. Practical implications – Fresh graduates are facing a desperate employment situation. It's evident that this empirical study was initiated to detect what particular circumstances are responsible for the employment crisis and poverty risk of graduates and look for adaptation mechanisms and institutional assistance to reduce this crisis. Research limitation – Due to the voluntary nature of the responses and the majority of respondents' lack of interest, data collection was extremely challenging. One hundred and fifty participants limited the scope of the study. Orginality/ value – According to the study, mechanisms and institutional assistance are needed to consolidate the employment crisis and address graduate unemployment, but they are unsustainable in the context of Bangladesh. However, based on the results of this study, recommendations have been provided to overcome this consequential problem.","PeriodicalId":55618,"journal":{"name":"South Asian Journal of Business Studies","volume":"4 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78865879","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}

Rana","doi":"10.58753/jbspust.3.1.2022.3","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.58753/jbspust.3.1.2022.3","url":null,"abstract":"Purpose: The purpose of this study is to examine the impact of credit risk management indicators on the performance of Bangladesh’s state-owned commercial banks. Six state-owned commercial banks’ perspectives and board information are used in the examination. Methodology: In order to conduct the examination, Stata 14.2 programming was used. It is used to determine how rational it is to distribute an arbitrary variable that is fundamental to the informative index. Then, the Leven Lin Chu unit root test and Hadri LM unit root test were used to determine if the variables used were stationary. Findings: I looked at correlation coefficients and variance-inflating factors to see if there were any difficulties with multicollinearity among free factors. The focus also employs illuminating factual examination to outline the impact of credit risk and board factors on productivity, as well as relationship lattice to assess the degree of connections between the autonomous factors and the benefit of state-owned commercial banks. Using a fixed impact and pooled OLS relapses, I can see that credit hazard significantly affects benefits. According to the law, banks are obligated to enhance their credit hazard. It is important to keep an eye on non-performing advances, functional gambles, and financing cost hazard in addition to the subjective resource portfolio that was considered to have a significant impact on productivity. Practical Implications: The findings of this analysis have some managerial implications. This study gives managers actual evidence on the impact of credit risk management indicators on bank performance, allowing them to discover ways to improve bank performance. Policymakers, regulators, and bank management should pay more attention to credit risk management indicators. Regulators should guarantee banks implement credit risk management rules to build a robust banking industry and achieve sustainable development goals.

Methodology: The study conducted an in-depth interview with 40 stakeholders including general education specialists, subject educators, alumni students, practitioners, and policymakers. It also conducted a focus group discussion (FGD) with eight experts in this field. Respondents for in-depth interviews and the FGD were selected from the stakeholders by using convenient and judgmental sampling techniques. Narrative analysis method is used to analyze the interview data of individual respondents. Findings: The study found that seven public universities, nine private universities, and nine colleges under the National University offered degrees in tourism and hospitality management in this country. About eighty-five faculty members teach in this sector, yet less than 20 percent possess graduate and post-graduate degrees in tourism and hotel management. The analysis of the study revealed some significant problems including: less industry focused curricula and teaching-learning methods, no uniform national guidelines, poor infrastructure, and teaching staff with a predominantly non-tourism background. In addition, lack of foreign-trained faculty, entry of reluctant students, and a negative social perception of tourism occupations all pose difficulties for the industry. Practical Implications: This study helps the stakeholders to understand the problems and prospects of tourism and hospitality education in Bangladesh and empower themselves to overcome these problems. Originality: This study reveals the underlying problems and some strategic solutions for tourism and hospitality education in Bangladesh.

The banking sector’s performance and profitability have been impacted as a result. In this paper, we analyze the effect of COVID-19 pandemic on the financial performance of banking sector in Bangladesh before and throughout the present era of COVID-19. Methodology: In this regard, the study considered the 14 banks over the period of 2014-2021. The random-effects regression model is utilized to identify the profitability drivers. The random effect model investigates the influence of bank-specific variables and macroeconomic variables on the profitability of banks. Findings: During the pandemic era of COVID-19, our article found that a high degree of nonperforming loans, retaining more liquid assets, and a significant amount of hedging funds reduced banks' profitability. In contrast, a suitable bank size, non-interest revenue, inflation rate, and population growth increased the bank's performance indicators throughout this time. Practical Implications: This study's findings will aid financial policymakers in identifying profit-enhancing loopholes and implementing preventative actions during crisis periods such as COVID-19. Originality: The profit influencing factor include both bank and economic oriented, some of which were not previously considered in Bangladesh-specific studies. Incorporating these additional criteria and the independent examination of the pandemic era helps us to get new perspectives on the elements that influence commercial banks’ profitability.","PeriodicalId":55618,"journal":{"name":"South Asian Journal of Business Studies","volume":"7 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87463308","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}

Methodology: Fifty annual reports of listed textile companies for the year 2019 have been taken as the sample to find the empirical result of this study. The statistics for description and interpretation of cross-sectional data have been used to explore and examine the causal relationship among variables under study. Findings: From the statistical analysis of governance variables, it is seen that 30% of the sample company have a minimum (5) member in the Board, whereas only 2% companies have more than 10 directors. Moreover, five companies having negative and low return on asset (ROA) do not comply with the governance code provision regarding independent directors. In addition to these, 18% companies have no female director on the Board and are violating the Board diversity policy of corporate governance. This study shows a significant and positive association between the gender diversity and the stock performance, which supports the lens of stakeholder and resource dependency theories and proves that the presence of female directors is an effective mechanism to protect the interest of outside resource providers and. But it infers that the presence of the independent director negatively affects the dependent variable, stock performance that is also statistically significant. Originality: The main value of the study is that it is the first paper in Bangladesh, which has considered the stock price change as proxy for stock performance as per author best knowledge.

Methodology: The analysis has been performed on 5 randomly selected banks over a period of 10 years (2011-2020). The respective banks’ annual reports were the sources of secondary data based on which the study has been performed. For study purpose, dominant profitability ratios are studied along with the calculation of liquidity. ROA served profitability measures being considered as dependent variables whereas Loan-Deposit, Deposit-Assets, & Cash-Deposit ratios served liquidity measures being considered as independent variables. Ordinary Least Square Models have been made use of testing how liquidity affects the banking sector’s profitability. Findings: From the analysis, it is founded that a rise in the banks’ aforementioned liquidity ratio would escalate the Return on Assets i.e. profitability.

Methodology: A total of 20 listed conventional banks are selected as a sample covering a period of 11 years from 2010-2020. The analysis of the study is conducted with help of correlation and multivariate fixed effect regression analysis to examine how the capital adequacy ratio (CAR), the credit deposit ratio (CDR), and the cost-income ratio (CIR) influence the performance of banks. Findings: With the use of correlation and regression analysis, the researchers have come to the conclusion that the capital adequacy ratio (CAR) has a negative association with return on assets (ROA) and the cost-income ratio (CIR) has a negative relationship with return on assets (ROA), while the credit deposit ratio (CDR) has no relationship with return on assets (ROA). On the other hand, the capital adequacy ratio (CAR) and cost-income ratio (CIR) have a negative association with return on equity (ROE), but the credit deposit ratio (CDR) has a positive relationship with return on equity (ROE). The study concluded that capital adequacy and return on assets (ROA), as well as capital adequacy and return on equity (ROE), have a significant association. Thus, capital adequacy and banks' performance are significantly related. Practical Implications: The performance and credit deposit ratio is positively related. An increase in credit deposit ratio will increase the profitability. The cost income ratio is negatively related with profitability. Banks should maintain cost income ratio low as possible. The capital adequacy ratio is negatively related with profitability. An increase in capital adequacy ratio will reduce the profitability. Originality: This is an original research of researchers.

Methodology: The study analyzes the returns of the Chittagong Stock Exchange's (CSE) daily Selective Categories Index (CSCX) from February 4, 2013 to December 31, 2021 (as a full sample) and from July 1, 2021 to December 30, 2021 (for forecasting). The researcher used GARCH family approaches considering different error distributions, to find the well-suited model(s) for the CSCX index. The researchers used ARMA to develop the mean equation based on two popular model selection criteria: Schwarz's (1978) Bayesian information criterion (SBIC) and Akaike's (1974) information criterion (AIC). The data has been analyzed using the application software E-Views 10. Findings: The ARMA (0,1) has been adopted as the mean equation for GARCH specifications. Under all three types of error distributions, the ARCH and GARCH terms, along with the leverage terms of asymmetric models, were found to be statistically significant in all the accepted combinations of the model. The models GARCH (1,2), TGARCH (1,2), and PARCH (1,2) under generalized error distributions and EGARCH (2,1) under Student’s t error distributions have been selected as the best-fitted models for estimation. Whereas, based on root mean square error (RMSE), mean absolute error (MAE), mean absolute percent error (MAPE), and theil inequality (TI), EGARCH (1, 2), TGARCH (1, 2), and PARCH (1, 2) under generalized error distributions, and GARCH (1, 2) under student’s t error distributions and normal error distributions are found to have superior out-of-sample forecasting abilities.
