Abstract:
Recent evidence shows that MFI financing continues to evolve with an increased inclination towards commercial financing. Taking stock on MFI financing and refocusing on the relationship between financing options and financial sustainability (FS) is unavoidable. The authors consummated a literature review based on complementing the little evidence on the subject with both theoretical and implied evidence from related studies in unpacking the relationship. Though donations are losing grip as a popular MFI financing option, review of literature recommends smart subsidies to spur FS and counter inefficiency, mis-targetting, dependency and distortions. As much as debt addresses agency problems and endorses FS, it has to be kept within limits to curb liquidation and mission drift. Deposit attraction augments FS and outreach, though MFIs must prepare to foot licensing costs, otherwise, mission drift ensues. Equity, though scarce in microfinance, is cheap and additive to FS. The authors suggest that MFIs should consider commercial funding, whilst keeping a check on the downside of each commercial financing option to augment FS and multiply outreach

Abstract:
This paper provides interesting insights into the practices of banks and institutional setting in Sri Lanka. The sustainability and stability of banks that makes up an economy’s banking system should be sound at all time. This paper aimed at analyzing the determinants of banking sector stability in Sri Lanka. The study used a broad set of macro and bank level data covering 22 commercial banks for the period 1996-2016. The fixed effect GLS panel data model tested in this paper sets the relationship between bank stability measure; Z-score and business environment which includes bank characteristics and the elements of macro environment. The analysis of the study revealed lower level of Z-scores and thus lower level of bank stability, indicating a higher risk associated with the commercial banking sector in Sri Lanka. From among the variables tested, strong evidence was found for a positive effect of bank efficiency on bank stability and a negative effect of credit growth on bank stability. At macro level, bank stability is promoted at a higher rate when the economy is more developed and stable. The results imply that efficiency of commercial banks needs to be further improved and regulatory and policy environment should be strengthened to manage the credit growth at the bank level. Further, it is suggestive to strengthening bank supervision and other financial infrastructure in order to ensure sustainability of the banking sector. Thus, the present paper contributes the current banking literature by unveiling the explicit and unforeseen economic implications associate with individual bank operations and macro imbalance which are particularly unique in underdeveloped countries.

Abstract:
Introduction. The financial instability has significantly increased due to the liberalization of foreign economic relations, the weakening of state control over the movement of capital and the acceleration of globalization processes in the financial and credit sphere. It has weakened the sustainability of national economies and made them more vulnerable to crisis shocks. Significant economic losses from crisis phenomena increase the need for research of the nature of financial instability and sustainability of the economy, the factors affecting its condition and the identification of pre-crisis risks. Issues of developing and effectively utilizing measures aimed at improving the financial stability of the economy remain relevant. It will minimize the negative impact of shocks and maintain steadily growing economic dynamics. The purpose is to generalize theoretical approaches in order to determine the essence of financial stability, financial instability and financial sustainability, to identify factors affecting it, and also to define the peculiarities of providing financial sustainability of the economy in conditions of Covid-19 pandemic. Methods. It has been used a number of scientific and special methods of the research such as: analysis, synthesis, induction, deduction, abstract, logic and generalization methods while studying the modern theoretical approaches to determine the nature of financial stability and financial stability of the economy, identifying the interdependencies between them, analyzing of scientists' views on the nature of financial instability, the causes of its occurrence and possible negative consequences for the economy. Results. Theoretical approaches to determining the essence of financial stability and financial stability of the economy have been considered and generalized. It has been established that they are interrelated and interdependent phenomena and the most important conditions for stable development of the national economy. The views of scientists and researchers on the nature of financial instability, the causes of its occurrence and possible negative consequences for the economy have been analyzed. It has been found that the vast majority of scientists associate instability with the inability of the financial system to withstand shocks and prevent their devastating impact on the real economy. It has been determined that there are many factors that can cause financial instability and the impact of each of them at some point in time can be significant. It has been emphasized on increasing risks of crisis emergence and deployment in both global and national economies in the conditions of the Covid-19 pandemic and the importance of providing government support to businesses and industries to adapt to evolving circumstances. Conclusions. Further research suggests focusing on the development and effective use of measures aimed at improving the financial sustainability of the economy, which will minimize the negative impact of shocks and maintain a steadily increasing economic dynamic.

Abstract:
The complexity of the specific category “financial sustainability” is manifested most of all in the viewpoints of her determination and measurement. In the financial analysis’s theory and practice, priority is given to financial sustainability’s ratio method. He is based on calculation of different relations, characterizing the capital’s structure, derived from information originating from accounting, namely – the balance sheet. Financial sustainability is determined from the structure of the capital’s sources and asset’s financing. The availability of sufficient financial resources and their efficiency is used to define enterprise’s financial stability. This is why indicators of the capital’s common structure are of fundamental importance for the financial sustainability’s evaluation. Different methods and approaches exist regarding financial sustainability’s evaluation. In the current paper is used the ratio method. The ratio method for financial sustainability’s evaluation of the enterprises has number of advantages: he is informationally backed up, because enterprise’s accounting information is publicly accessible, he is easily applied and the received information is interpreted without difficulty for comparative analysis.

Abstract:
In the past few decades, business performance has been approached from a multidimensional perspective, because a pro-active corporate sustainability reporting system for assessing the financial performance of an organization should at least address impacts at the organization and community levels, as well as the resulting associated social impacts. The purpose of this research was to identify the accessibility of corporate sustainability reporting instruments for Romanian managers and their role in increasing the financial performance of organizations. This study concludes that corporate social reporting indicators can be integrated into the reporting of the financial performance of a company and can transform sustainability into tangible value for all interested parties. In addition, the empirical results contribute to the understanding of corporate social responsibility practices; although being non-financial, these seem to be financially meaningful at a certain level after other financial factors are controlled for.

Abstract:

Church financial leaders were affected by the economic crisis after the 2008 recession. In a 2009 group study conducted nationwide with church financial leaders, 57% stated that the economy had a negative effect on their church budgets. The purpose of this qualitative multiple case study was to explore successful strategies that some church financial leaders used to ensure financial sustainability during economic crises. Resource dependence theory was the conceptual framework. Data were collected from 6 church financial leaders at 4 churches in the northeastern region in the United States; church financial leaders were selected through purposeful sampling to participate in semistructured interviews. Data were also collected from church documents, such as financial records and budget statements. These data were analyzed to identify emerging themes using Yin’s 5-phase process: compiling, disassembling, reassembling (and arraying), interpreting, and concluding. The 3 themes that emerged from the data analysis were (a) provide strategies to acquire external resources, (b) specify plans to establish internal strategic factors, and (c) provide strategies to improve financial and strategic management. Findings and recommendations of the study could contribute to positive social change by providing church financial leaders with successful strategies to ensure financial sustainability during economic crises and by increasing church revenue and improving social programs, which help improve the needs of staff, members, and people in the community.

Abstract:
This dissertation investigates the development of South African rugby franchises into inclusive and successful business models. An analysis of the current financial business models for rugby in South Africa, using the Sharks (Pty) Ltd as the case study for the research, compared with similar international professional rugby franchises in overseas countries, was conducted so as to formulate a sustainable business model. In order to do so, the research focused on three major areas: transformation in rugby, rugby as a business and player exodus. Inclusive innovation is regarded as the basis for developing these business and transformation strategies, as rugby has long been perceived as a sport that excludes people who were unfairly discriminated against during apartheid, whether in administrative structures or at the grassroots level. Research indicated what progress has been made in this regard and identified areas where transformation processes can be improved, by reviewing pertinent literature (including historical records, autobiographical accounts, journal articles, and statistical research reports), investigating the programs in place, and through conducting contact interviews with pertinent players, both on and off the field. Declining traditional revenue streams as indicated by, for example, lower match day revenue reinforced the need to propose a new business model to ensure sustainability. The increasing number of high profile rugby players currently playing professionally in Europe and Asia impacts negatively on the commercial product offered to the public, sponsors and broadcasters. The literature review examined the three areas mentioned above; however, while there was extensive information published on transformation, particularly in the media, a paucity of written reports on player exodus and rugby as a business was identified. The methodology combined deductive and inductive research strategies. Initially, the approach was primarily a deductive, quantitative research strategy to analyse the past and present state of rugby in relation to business, transformation and player retention. The second thrust of the research shifted to the development and testing of a hypothesis for a more inclusive and sustainable model than that tested above, utilising an inductive approach, underpinned by qualitative data derived from interviews, empirical observations and relevant textual material. The study is significant as it gives a deeper understanding of the relationship between professional and amateur rugby in South Africa, and an understanding of what is required to ensure that rugby becomes an inclusive sport. It provides a business model that creates a framework for necessary synergy between the professional and the amateur divisions to develop proactive policies which will foster inclusivity in South African rugby.

Abstract:
This study investigates the impact of value communication on financial sustainability of not for profits set up as small to medium scale enterprises. The major objective is to determine whether there is a significant impact on the financial sustainability if not for profits create a more aggressive approach and innovate way of communicating with financiers and donors on matters concerning their strategic plans and budgets. The four pillars of financial sustainability have been considered focusing mostly on Strategic and financial planning or budgeting. Measuring sustainability for a not for profit differs from that of a profit making enterprise in that measures such as return on capital employed would be meaningless since most not for profit have a low capital base and are not bottom-line focused. The independent variable has been identified as value communication of strategic and financial planning or budgeting with donors or potential funders while the dependent variable is financial sustainability defined as meeting current budgetary demands. Moderating and Intervening variables identified include ; global financial environment ,operating environment, policy position of donor funding states, donor funding policies, goals and objectives, structure of donor funding towards development programmes and projects and CEO charisma and communication attributes. The study followed a survey design, and employed Times Series as evaluative method for quantitative analysis. Analysis was based on primary data generated through a structured questionnaire administered on respondents. Respondents were employees in selected not for profit organizations working in the four key development services supporting the Millennium Development Goals and Sixth National Development Plan, namely Health, Education, Agriculture and Water and Sanitation in Zambia. Interviews were also conducted with various financiers and donors of the selected not for profit enterprises. Responses to research statements were scaled and converted to quantitative data via Likert scale developed for the study to enable segmentation of the data responses into dependent and independent variables based on communication and financial sustainability variables. This study will help not for profits create an innovative communication strategy so as not to risk losing funding to other competitors or new comers on the scene.

Abstract:
From 2014 to 2015, deficiency fines cost Pennsylvania nursing homes more than $2.5 million. Costs associated with adhering to increased health care regulations can reduce profit and affect the financial sustainability of the nursing home industry. Some nursing home administrators (NHAs) lack successful strategies to improve state and federal regulation compliance and promote financial sustainability. Drucker's management by objectives theory was the conceptual framework for this study. The purpose of this qualitative multiple case study was to explore successful strategies NHAs use to improve state and federal regulation compliance to mitigate deficiencies and derivative fines to promote financial sustainability of nursing homes. NHAs who manage 5-star rated nursing homes within a 100-mile radius of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania use effective management strategies to mitigate deficiencies and derivative fines to earn a 5-star rating which, helps promote financial sustainability. Data were collected from semistructured face-to-face and telephone interviews with 4 NHAs and from Medicare's Nursing Home Compare website. The data on the website provided information on the 3 domains of health inspections, staffing, and quality measures, that made up the overall star rating of nursing homes. Data were analyzed using Yin's 5-phase cycle. The findings revealed 3 major themes: develop knowledgeable staff, enhance communication with staff and residents, and promote innovation for continuous quality improvement. The implications for positive social change could include increased quality of patients' health care, creation of employment opportunities to promote prosperity in communities, and financial sustainability in the United States nursing home industry.

Abstract:
Stakeholders are important to the financial sustainability of a nonprofit organization; however, heavy reliance on 1 stakeholder over another can place a nonprofit organization at financial risk. The purpose of this single case study was to explore strategies used by 3 senior leaders of a nonprofit organization in New York who have experience with stakeholder engagements efforts. The conceptual framework used for this study comprised general systems theory and transformational leadership theory. Data were collected using semistructured interviews, and review of organizational documents and online databases. Using thematic analysis, the 4 key themes that emerged from process and results strengths were leadership involvement in engaging stakeholders, persistent promotion of the organization's mission and vision, connection with the community, and workforce engagement activities. The implications of this study for positive social change include the potential to increase nonprofit leaders' understanding of practical approaches that may facilitate stakeholder engagement for improving financial sustainability, improve nonprofit leader–stakeholder relationships, and bolster philanthropic efforts to improve the economic stability of the nonprofit organization and the community.

Full text
Abstract:
The development of highway infrastructure typically requires major capital input over a long period. This often causes serious financial constraints for investors. The push for sustainability has added new dimensions to the complexity in the evaluation of highway projects, particularly on the cost front. This makes the determination of long-term viability even more a precarious exercise. Life-cycle costing analysis (LCCA) is generally recognised as a valuable tool for the assessment of financial decisions on construction works. However to date, existing LCCA models are deficient in dealing with sustainability factors, particularly for infrastructure projects due to their inherent focus on the economic issues alone. This research probed into the major challenges of implementing sustainability in highway infrastructure development in terms of financial concerns and obligations. Using results of research through literature review, questionnaire survey of industry stakeholders and semi-structured interview of senior practitioners involved in highway infrastructure development, the research identified the relative importance of cost components relating to sustainability measures and on such basis, developed ways of improving existing LCCA models to incorporate sustainability commitments into long-term financial management. On such a platform, a decision support model incorporated Fuzzy Analytical Hierarchy Process and LCCA for the evaluation of the specific cost components most concerned by infrastructure stakeholders. Two real highway infrastructure projects in Australia were then used for testing, application and validation, before the decision support model was finalised. Improved industry understanding and tools such as the developed model will lead to positive sustainability deliverables while ensuring financial viability over the lifecycle of highway infrastructure projects.

Abstract:
In this thesis I examine the relationship between corporate sustainability information networks (SIN) and financial distress. I propose that firms that are more central in the SIN have better access to key sustainability information which in turn results in lower financial distress. Using 5,521 in-network firms and their propensity scored matching (PSM) firms over the five-year period 2015-2019, I find strong support for my hypothesis. The findings suggest that SINs provide an important role in reducing financial distress.

Abstract:
Microfinance is a relatively young and somewhat ambiguous concept. The phenomenon has, however, proven to contribute to making the lives better for many poor people, thus the interest for the industry has grown substantially. The increased attention has stimulated the movement towards more financially sustainable organizations. Along with this transformation, concerns regarding how it affects the poor have been raised. This study aims to map the key characteristics of financially sustainable microfinance institutions (MFIs) and what features that separates them from their non-sustainable counterparts. By analyzing data from 1109 MFIs, some significant differences between sustainable and non-sustainable organizations have been found. The study shows that for-profit MFIs are self-sufficient to a greater extent than the non-sufficient ones, which might be caused by the pressure to deliver value to shareholders. Furthermore, there are indications that self-sufficient MFIs are more efficient, which can be assumed to be caused by technological advantages, or different lending methods. The findings on outreach are somewhat contradictory; sustainable MFIs are reaching more clients on average, which discards a mission drift. On the other hand, self-sufficient MFIs have larger average loan sizes and less female borrowers, two indications that a mission drift actual exists. Self-sufficient MFIs have also proven to have lower loan loss rates and lower yields on loan portfolio. Positive findings, as they indicate that the MFIs have sound loan portfolios and that they have managed to become self-sustainable not by exploiting the poor, but by reducing costs and increasing efficiency. Financial sustainability can therefore be assumed to be achieved without forsaking the poor, if the social aims of the organizations are consistent with the financial objectives.

Nyamsogoro, Ganka Daniel. "Financial sustainability of rural microfinance institutions (MFIs) in Tanzania." Thesis, University of Greenwich, 2010. http://gala.gre.ac.uk/6366/.

Full text
Abstract:
An enduring problem facing microfinance institutions is how to attain financial sustainability. Several studies have been conducted to determine the factors affecting financial sustainability of microfinance institutions using large and well developed MFIs in various countries. However, no such study has been conducted in rural Tanzania where majority of MFIs are small, most of which are member-based (cooperatives). Consequently, the factors affecting their financial sustainability are not known. This study, therefore, was set to bridge this knowledge gap. This study followed a quantitative research approach using panel data regression as the main data analysis technique. The study was based on four years primary and secondary data obtained from 98 sampled rural MFIs in Tanzania. We found that microfinance capital structure, interest rates charged, differences in lending type, cost per borrower, product type, MFI size, number of borrowers, yield on gross loan portfolio, level of portfolio at risk, liquidity level, staff productivity, and the operating efficiency affect the financial sustainability of rural microfinance institutions in Tanzania. The study makes the following key contributions to knowledge in addition to determining factors affecting financial sustainability of rural microfinance institutions in Tanzania: First, the study reveals that there exists simultaneous causality relationship between financial sustainability and breadth of outreach. When this relationship is not considered in determining factors affecting financial sustainability there may be inconsistent evidence on the existence of mission drift. Second, it unveils the trade-off between financial sustainability and breadth of outreach with regards to the minimum loan size when group lending is used. That is, larger loan size, while improves profitability, reduces the breadth of outreach. Third, the study provides empirical evidence that the impact of a particular lending type on microfinance institution‟s profitability will depend on the term to maturity and number of instalments reflected in its lending terms. Fourth, consistent with the institutionists‟ view, the study provides empirical evidence that financial sustainability of microfinance institutions improves their breadth of outreach. Lastly, the study documents the applicability and limitations of previous studies to rural microfinance institutions in Tanzania.

Abstract:
The financial sector is not immune to the risks caused by climate change and environmental degradation, and it follows trends and improves its contribution to sustainability. Strengthening economic and financial resilience to sustainability risks is one of the priorities of legislators at the global level. Sustainable financing as one possible solutions refers to the practice of providing funding to projects or businesses that promote sustainability, including social, environmental, and economic sustainability and the paper analyses its impact on economic development and increasing competitiveness. The aim of sustainable financing is to support projects that not only generate financial returns, but also have a positive impact on society and the environment. The paper is based on the analysis of empirical data and critical review of literature. Empirical data for the study are the secondary data retrieved from European Central Bank and European regulations.

Abstract:
The FRONTIERS project worked with three Bolivian NGOs (Prosalud, the Center for Research, Education and Services or CIES, and the Association of Rural Health Programs or APSAR) to improve their ability to conduct research on market analysis and cost recovery. Following a one-week workshop on conducting cost studies, staff from the three NGOs designed operations research studies to help with decisions on planning and cost recovery. Study findings showed that cost recovery varied from high (Prosalud, 83-109%) to low (CIES, 38-46%) and very low (APSAR, 10-25%), depending on the service. All three studies focused on alternative options to client fees, including developing new services or market approaches (Prosalud), controlling costs (CIES), and continued donor support (APSAR).

Abstract:
This evidence brief shows that business’s sustainability strategies that drive better financial performance do so through mediating factors, such as enhancing business reputation, increasing stakeholder partnerships, mitigating business risks, and strengthening innovation capacity. Recent empirical literature shows optimism that investing in RBC is a way to increase competitiveness, improve financial returns on investments and firm valuation, while reducing business costs. Empirical evidence also shows that RBC has potential to decrease systematic risk and improves firm value. When companies with a good sustainability profile are acquired, the market reaction is unanimously positive and a ‘high-sustainability’ portfolio often outperforms a ‘low-sustainability’ portfolio. However, there are still barriers which prevent faster uptake of responsible business practices, including lack of information on different aspects of business conduct and tensions between desire to demonstrate short-term improvements in practice, (typically for shareholders) and the need for longer-term planning.

Abstract:
Alternative dispute resolution in the form of a financial ombudsperson, mediator, or arbiter adds value to the financial services sector. It can provide redress for high volumes of consumer complaints, establish rules of conduct for financial service providers, and improve the sector’s overall health and sustainability. This paper sets out insights from three long-standing financial alternative dispute resolution systems in Armenia, Australia, and Singapore. It outlines how the different systems work and highlights lessons for countries interested in developing similar arrangements to strengthen financial consumer protection.
