Current research purpose to analyze and explain the influence of environmental uncertainty on competitiveness and fishery company performance, then also aims to examine the mediating role of ...competitiveness. This research uses a quantitative approach, with data collection using questionnaires. The sampling in this study was determined based on criteria represented by 3 people at the management level of 19 fishing companies (i.e. directors, operational managers, and supervisors), thus a total sample of 57 managers in the fisheries company. Data analysis and hypothesis testing in this current research using generalized Structured Component Analysis (GSCA). Research findings indicate a positive and significant influence between environmental uncertainty on competitiveness and fishery company performance. Similarly, the competitiveness has a positive and significant effect on fishery company performance. Lasty, competitiveness has a role as partial mediation of the influence environmental uncertainty toward fishery company performance. The practical implications of the results of this study are the importance of fishing companies to adapt to environmental uncertainties in order to create competitiveness and improve company performance.
•A game model among governments, banks and PV companies is built.•Empirical analysis for the impact of subsidies and loans on PV company.•The “Credit Limitation Policy” is a quasi-natural experiment ...to test loan access.•Loan limitation undermines PV companies' performance.•Governments' subsidies have little impact on company performance.
China’s Photovoltaic (PV) industry plays a critical role in the global PV industry. Between 2013 and 2015, Chinese PV companies were restricted in their access to debt financing. However, to date there has been a lack of studies investigating this “Credit Restriction Policy“. This paper innovatively builds a dynamic game model to analyze the behavior of governments, banks and the PV companies in the process of financing PV companies and is the first attempt to use the quasi-natural experiment in the PV industry to investigate the impact of loan restriction on firm performance. The game analysis shows that both the governments' support behavior and companies' loan decisions have nothing to do with the cost of governments' support to companies. Using the panel data for China's listed PV companies from 2007 to 2017, the empirical results reveal that restricting access to bank loan undermines PV companies’ performance, but government subsidies have little impact on the operating performance of PV companies. The results suggest that while restriction of financial access has negative impact on PV companies, government’s administrative intervention is not desirable and instead government should improve the institutions for bank lending.
Privatization is one of the Government's efforts to obtain additional capital with one of the goals for the efficiency of BUMN. The efficiency of BUMN due to privatization needs to be studied through ...data processed using a statistical approach. Based on the results of the study, it can be seen that BUMN is relatively more efficient before privatization compared to after privatization, then it is found that from the tested variables, there are 3 factors that affect the efficiency of construction BUMN, namely total assets, economic growth and interest rate. Privatization has no effect on the efficiency of Construction SOEs. This shows that the privatization carried out has no effect on the company's performance. This can happen because the shares sold to the public are relatively small. The government is still dominant as a shareholder, so management control from the government is still dominant.DOI: https://doi.org/10.26905/afr.v4i2.6234
In this article, we theoretically and empirically examine why and how social identity and overwork/workaholism represent pathways to convey the effect of dark triad traits – Machiavellianism, ...narcissism, and psychopathy – on venture performance. By analyzing the data of 569 university students with their own businesses in the Global University Entrepreneurial Spirit Students’ Survey, we show that compulsive overwork and Darwinian social identity partially mediate the positive effect of narcissism on venture performance. Thus, our study extends the narcissism literature by exploring the mechanism of the positive impact of narcissism on venture performance and implies that narcissism is not necessarily an adverse personality characteristic in an entrepreneurial context.
•Narcissism positively affects entrepreneurial success.•Entrepreneurs high in narcissism are more likely to have Darwinian entrepreneurial motivations.•Narcissism is positively related to workaholism.•Both Darwinian social identity and working compulsively partially mediate the relationship between narcissism and entrepreneurial performance.
•Digitalisation's diffusion, advantages, and impact on performance were explored.•Few studies have analysed digitalisation and its implementation in listed companies.•Italian listed companies do not ...have a high degree of digitalisation initiatives.•Digitalisation is positively associated with Italian listed companies’ performance.
Digitalisation has become embedded in products and services, and it increasingly supports corporate business processes. However, few empirical studies have analysed the state of digitalisation and its implementation within companies, and the extant literature has painted an inconsistent picture concerning the effects of digitalisation. This survey-based study explores the diffusion of digitalisation, the advantages and difficulties in the practical transition to digitalisation, and its impact on performance. The sample includes Italian listed companies across diverse industries. The results highlight the still embryonic adoption of digital tools to support daily company operations; however, the impacts of digitalisation on company performance are noticeable. This research contributes to the literature on digitalisation and performance, breaks new ground by focusing on listed companies, and has implications for management investment in digitalisation for value creation.
