    Impact Of Internet Money Market Funds On Loans Of Commercial Banks In China
    (2025-01)
    Ren, Tianyi
    Commercial banks in china began issuing internet money funds in 2013, and by 2023, its total net market value could rival the combined deposits of china's four largest commercial banks. As internet money funds divert large amounts of bank deposits, they may reduce the source of funding for bank loans, leading to weak growth in the lending business. Between 2014 and 2022, 50% of the listed banks' loan size growth rate showed a downward trend. According to the theory of substitution effect, there is a certain degree of substitution effect between internet money funds and deposits; meanwhile, bank deposits serve as the primary source of funding for bank loans, significantly impacting bank loans. Therefore, this thesis investigates the impact of internet money funds on lending operations as well as the mediation effect of deposits in said impact. A panel model with dynamic features is estimated using the gmm method and analyzed using nine years of annual data from twenty commercial banks listed in china before 2014. The study found that the rapid growth in internet money funds dampened the size of loans. Deposits play a mediating role of 27.42% in the influence of internet money funds on bank loans. As a result, banks need to take a series of measures to boost their lending business, such as imposing restrictions on internet money funds, rationalizing their pricing, and increasing the yield on deposits.

    Factors Influencing Occupational Health And Safety (Ohs) Implementation In The Agriculture Sector Of Pakistan: The Moderating Role Of Mimetic Motives
    (2025-01)
    Nadeem, Muhammad Aamir
    Pakistan, being a predominantly agrarian country, has 27 million agrarian workforces. It accounts 37.42 percent of the total workforce but suffering from a highest occupational injuries and diseases rate (i.E., 39 per cent annually). Despite these alarming statistics, not much attention has been given to occupational health and safety (ohs) implementation in this sector. Therefore, this study is aimed at excavating the key factors that can encourage ohs implementation. The proposed model of the study was based on institutional theory. In this regard, the researcher investigated the effect of several factors such as management commitment, safety training, safety communication and feedback, and implementation styles on ohs implementation. This study also examined the moderating role of mimetic motives between these factors and ohs implementation. The data was collected from 311 pakistani agriculture organizations using drop-off pick-up method. The data collection lasted over four and half months starting from august 2021. For statistical analysis, both statistical package for social science (spss) and smartpls were used to analyse the data.

    Factors Influencing The Intention To Use Educational Management Information Systems (Emis) In The Uae’S Private Universities
    (2024-12)
    Alshamsi, Mohammed Khamis Masoud Maayouf
    The study investigates the factors that influence the intention to use educational management information systems (emis): insights from private universities in the uae. Furthermore, the research aims to analyze the relationship between the factors and tam, ttf, d&m, and p trust. Private universities in the uae are facing a huge problem managing their information systems. Emis is the solution that can improve decision-making and operational efficiency in the education sector. Nevertheless, there are reasons why executive-level managers resist the use of emis. Structural equation modeling is utilized to analyze the gathered data and validate 25 hypotheses in this study, which comprises an online survey of 314 executive-level managers working in private universities in the uae. Three fundamental models were selected with a new variable from use of technology (utaut), innovation diffusion theory (idt), and a mediator variable from psychology studies (psy). This study provides valuable insights that could help executive-level managers learn about the use of educational management information systems. According to empirical evidence, the intentions to use emis in uae private universities are significantly and directly influenced by self-efficiency, technology characteristics, system quality, and their relationship with perceived ease of use.

    Determinants And Outcomes Of Green Technology Innovation Adoption Among Third-Party Logistics Firms In China
    (2025-01)
    Liu, Shu
    Third-party logistics (3pl) significantly impacts various sectors, yet its operations often harm the environment. Consequently, the 3pl sector plays a critical role in driving sustainable development. Green technology innovation (gti) not only mitigates environmental damage but also enhances corporate performance. Despite these benefits, many firms are reluctant to green technology innovation adoption (gtia), and research on the factors influencing its adoption in the 3pl industry remains limited, especially in developing countries. This study addresses these gaps by examining the determinants and outcomes of gtia among chinese 3pl firms. Using the technology-organization-environment (toe) framework and diffusion of innovation (doi) theory, the research explores the effects of organizational support, human resource quality, green internal integration, green supplier integration, and green customer integration on gtia. It also investigates the moderating roles of green creativity and a data-driven culture. This study adopts a cross-sectional design, collecting survey data from 544 chinese 3pl firms to conduct quantitative research. Partial least squares structural equation modeling (pls-sem) revealed that relative advantage, compatibility, organizational support, human resource quality, institutional pressure, and green integrations significantly influence gtia.
