Relationship Between Innovative Behaviour And Business Intelligence System Adoption Among Malaysian Smes: Competitive Intelligence As A Mediator And Innovative Dynamism As A Moderator
(2014-05)
Mahmudin, Alwi
Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) make up between 95% and 99% of the total businesses worldwide. SMEs are the source of job creation and contribute significantly to many developed countries' gross domestic product (GDP) growth. In developed countries, SMEs contribute more than 50% to GDP. Nevertheless, in Malaysia, SMEs only contributed 38.3% of the total GDP (RM521.7 billion) to the Malaysian economy in 2018. The government is targeting an increase in SMEs contribution to GDP to above 40% in years to come. Many SMEs are not performing to their highest potential due to internal efficiencies and constraints in the business environment. With the era of industry 4.0, Malaysia has launched its industry 4WRD to match The National Entrepreneurship Policy 2030 or Dasar Keusahawanan Nasional 2030 (DKN2030) in creating a conducive and integrated entrepreneurial ecosystem. The objective of DKN2030 is to empower and drive a culture of innovation and entrepreneurship in the country. Thus, this study investigates the relationship between innovation behaviour and business intelligence system, mediated by competitive intelligence and moderated by innovative dynamism. The investigation aims to establish the relationship between innovation behaviour (IB) and Business Intelligence System adoption, as well as the mediation effect of competitive intelligence and the moderation effect of innovative dynamism among small and medium entrepreneurs in Malaysia
Ipo Information Disclosure And Price Stabilisation Action From The Perspective Of Information Asymmetry In Hong Kong Listed Companies
(2024-08)
Xu, Morong
The topics of IPO have attracted attentions from scholars for a long time. Among these research topics, price stabilisation, which is an aftermarket action taken by underwriters, is relatively less concentrated by prior studies. Factors which cause the stabilisation done by underwriters are not clear, owing to the barrier resulted from the non-mandatory disclosure of such actions in many countries. Meanwhile, as a compulsory document for IPO issuers, the prospectus contains sufficient information for investors to make decision for IPO investment. Recent studies have focused on the information disclosed in IPO prospectus, such as the text content and textual tone, and its corresponding influence on market performance. Yet, studies which have investigated the relationship between the information disclosure of IPO prospectus and price stabilisation are scarce. This thesis probes into the potential factors of price stabilisation from the theoretical perspective of information asymmetry by examining how the information disclosed in the IPO prospectus can impact the aftermarket stabilising actions using a sample data from 2004 to 2021 in Hong Kong stock market. Specifically, the effects of the information disclosure related to cornerstone investors, Chinese state ownership, as well as the narrative uncertainty contained in the prospectus, are investigated using ordinary least square regression model. This thesis finds that the information related to cornerstone investors is positively correlated with price stabilising actions in the aftermarket.
A Case Study On The Risk Management Model Of An Islamic Banking In Jaiz Bank: An Institutional Perspective
(2024-04)
Tela, Umar Mohammed
Effective risk management is critical for the safety and growth of banks, whether conventional or Islamic banks, and its relevance has grown over time, especially in the aftermath of the great crisis. Although risk management is an area of significant concern to the Islamic banking setting, it remains an under-researched field of study, particularly in developing countries like Nigeria. Previous studies about risk management practices have focused on the conventional setting, with little emphasis on Islamic banks. Islamic banks have partnership and sale-based products, which are not interest bearing as in the conventional system. Islamic banks face more unique risks to manage than those traditionally shared with conventional counterparts due to their products and business operations, which require them to be Sharia compliant. Given the limited literature on Islamic banking risk management, the current study has explored the issues surrounding the application of risk management outside of the conventional banking environment. More specifically, the study aims to provide an in-depth understanding and analysis of Islamic banking risk management model in terms of how it is implicated in banking operations and performance. To achieve these objectives, this study adopts a qualitative case study research approach by focusing on a Nigerian Islamic bank, Jaiz Bank Plc (Jaiz Bank), as a case organisation. Data analysis is performed using thematic analysis. Institutional Theory is employed as a theoretical lens to probe into how institutional pressures influence the institutionalisation process of the risk management model in Jaiz Bank. The research findings are analysed and interpreted using institutional isomorphism.

(2019-05)
Sivakumaran, Vinesh Maran
The education industry is an industry which is seeing continuous growth and changes in any country in the world today. The very fact that more and more education institutions are coming up brings about a need to have good leaders helm these education institutions. This study focuses on organisation performance because it has been proven through literature that organisation performance of private higher education institutions are not up to standard or expectation, thus affecting their survival. Therefore, this study intends to look at whether organisation performance can be affected by particular traits possessed by the leaders of these private higher education institutions throughout Malaysia. The theoretical framework was formulated based on previous literature review and it resulted in the formation of this research framework.
