Abstract:
This paper investigates the role of a host of geographical factors in shaping the cross-market branch banking network, using Illinois as a case study. The study adopts the multiple regression quadratic assignment procedure from social network analysis in non-parametric estimation. The research finds that cross-market branch banking is subject to distance decay. While the urban place hierarchy (including market size and population density) contributes positively to the role of places as control centers, its role in forming cross-market branch banking markets is more profound. The network centrality contributes positively to places' role as market centers, as does market concentration. Income level is positively associated with the role of control centers. Inward interstate banking tends to weaken the role of a place as a control center and market center. The information, art/entertainment, and government sectors play a positive role in attracting branch banking while the role of the retail is negative. The information industry is also a positive factor in forming control centers.

Abstract:
High demand for curly red chilies will cause prices to rise while production cannot fulfill consumer desires. This situation was caused by an imbalance of supply-demand, where the supply-demand imbalance can be caused by several changes such as changes in production technology, population growth or number of consumers, changes in income levels per capita and season (., Asriani, and Rasyid 2012). Research data as research subjects were 1) Price time series data, curly red chili production at production centers 2) Supply data of curly red chilies from Cikajang Garut Regency, Caringin Central Market, Gedebage Main Market and Kramat Jati Central Market, 3) Time series data price, production, supply, government policies and supporting data from the West Java Food Crops Agriculture Office, and related agencies. The data used were time series data and supporting data from: Price information centers in production centers, main markets and price information at the West Java Food Crops Agricultural Service, for each marketing agency data was carried out by tracing the marketing chain. The research analysis was carried out in several ways, namely theoretically and empirically at the production center and the wholesale market described descriptively. Theoretical price formation can be explained that prices was formed based on supply and demand. Prices derived from price formation can come from the District or Provincial Agriculture Office and be informed from the Commodity Price Information Center in production centers and forwarded to farmers, dealers, traders and wholesale markets. Price information can be conveyed to between market players, so that farmers and market players know your margin and profit. Empirically, it can be seen that price formation in production centers was not seen to be formed from supply and demand. The price in the wholesale market is the price determined by market players in the wholesale market based on the amount of supply entering the main market and price information between the parent markets. The information center at PIKJ does not have production data from production centers so that when the price hike occurs, the version of the Ministry of Agriculture is imports of chilies ("specifically for curly red chilies, there are no imports"). Imports indicate that the production / supply decreases without knowing the actual amount of production, in this case the price information speed was faster than the production data that was informed per year so that prices in farmers still do not increase, meaning that farmers do not enjoy price increases, in this case it can be said that market mechanism was not working well.

Abstract:
This paper discusses global markets and international business and their impact on companies and the economy at large. The global market includes international trade activities, cross-border investment, and inter-country economic integration. International business involves multinational corporations, global supply chains and international financial transactions. In the context of global markets, companies have wider access to larger markets, increase sales opportunities and diversify risks. They can access resources and labor that are not available in their home countries. However, engaging in international trade also involves challenges such as cultural differences, laws, regulations, and economic and political risks. International trade plays an important role in the economic growth of a country. It facilitates the flow of goods, services and capital between countries, increases productivity, creates jobs and strengthens economic dependence between countries. To trade in global markets, companies must understand international trade regulations, build strategic partnerships, and take advantage of technological advances to facilitate global communications and transactions. In addition, companies also need to manage risks related to currency fluctuations, changes in trade policies, and operational risks in foreign markets. Through careful research, in-depth market analysis and the use of the right strategies, companies can successfully trade with the world, increase their competitive advantage and achieve sustainable growth in an era of ever-evolving global markets.

Abstract:
The study assessed institutional factors influencing participation in milk markets in Maseru urban. Thirty (30) diary farmers were selected using structured questionnaires. Data were analysed using percentage and logit regression model. Results showed that dairy farmers (60%) used formal market channels more than informal market channels (40%). Market information (0.083), membership in organization and collective action (0.088), government support (0.036) and contractual agreements (0.034) influence participation in formal markets while social capital (0.036), path dependency (0.043), delayed payments (0.084) and distance to milk collection centres (0.054) influence participation in the informal markets. Advance payments should be introduced; institutional support system developed as well as the decentralisation of the milk collection centers or points.

Abstract:
Market centers serve as vital economic hubs where transactions occur, impacting local economies profoundly. However, understanding the nuanced socio-economic dynamics within these centers remains crucial for informed policymaking and sustainable development. This study delves into the intricacies of market centers in Accra, Ghana, focusing on the Makola, Dome, and Madina markets. Drawing on established literature in market dynamics and economic development, the research employs a multi-method approach to analyze market users’ demographics, travel behaviors, and their willingness to invest in market infrastructure improvements. By addressing the specific problem of inquiry, namely, the need to comprehend the socio-economic factors influencing market participation and investment in market infrastructure, this study aims to provide actionable insights for policymakers and stakeholders. Through structured questionnaires and statistical analysis, the study uncovers nuanced insights into the pivotal role of market centers in local economies. Findings underscore the predominance of female market participants, the significant economic contributions of market centers, and the readiness of stakeholders to contribute to market improvements. By integrating theoretical frameworks like the travel cost method and willingness to pay assessments, this research contributes to a deeper understanding of the socio-economic dynamics shaping market participation. The study concludes with recommendations advocating for government intervention, community engagement, and targeted infrastructure investments to promote sustainable market development and foster economic resilience within local communities.

Abstract:
Specialty providers claim to offer a new competitive benchmark for efficient delivery of health care. This article explores this view by examining evidence for price competition between ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs) and hospital outpatient departments (HOPDs). I studied the impact of ASC market presence on actual prices paid to HOPDs during 2007-2010 for four common surgical procedures that were performed in both provider types. For the procedures examined, HOPDs received payments from commercial insurers in the range of 3.25% to 5.15% lower for each additional ASC per 100,000 persons in a market. HOPDs may have less negotiating leverage with commercial insurers on price in markets with high ASC market penetration, resulting in relatively lower prices.

Abstract:
In the last decade, the changes in living styles of people and shopping activities brought a new concept, &ldquo
shopping center&rdquo
. By the time the numbers of shopping centers increased and this big consumption market created a great competition among the investors. The investors had the necessity of examining their market share within the market and other social and spatial factors for the feasibility of their shopping centers. In this thesis considering the need of such a study, a market share analysis is carried out to determine the market share of shopping centers within the competition, analyze the important facts of the market share, estimate the market capacity and potential market regions. Ankara is chosen as the study area since it has an increasing trend for the development of shopping centers. Tthe study is carried out for Armada, Bilkent and 5M Migros shopping centers since they serve for the whole city and have different functions such as recreation, restaurants, cultural activities together with shopping activities. For the analysis a gravity model developed by Lakshmanan and Hansen is used. The model estimates the market share of the centers among regions considering the factors, as accessibility in terms of cost and time, economic conditions of regions, attractiveness of shopping centers and competitors of the market. For the application process Geographic Information Systems ESRI Arc GIS 8.1 and ESRI ArcView 3.2 are used as software to store and manipulate data, build regulations on road network structure, calculate distances and costs, and present maps and results.

GM sponsored this research to assist in its decision to establish an engineering center in India. The objective of this research is to understand the benefits and challenges faced by global companies in China and India. The study focused on a few global companies (Delphi, General Electric, and Motorola) that had engineering centers in both China and India. Two sets of data, direct data and indirect data, were collected. Direct data include responses to surveys sent to managers of these companies as well as personal interviews with executives of these companies. Indirect data include economic data and company profiles from the Internet, journals, company reports, and news releases. The data collected indicate that establishing engineering center in emerging market is beneficial to a global company. Companies that establish engineering centers in China usually benefit from their capabilities in manufacturing and customer service. Companies that establish engineering centers in India usually benefit from their knowledge-based services and the availability of English speaking engineers. Major challenges in these countries include cultural differences between the local employees and the headquarters, lack of technical management resources, and government regulations. Overall, the benefits outweigh the challenges. This research concludes that GM should establish a carefully focused technical center in India that focuses on research relevant to emerging markets or on software development that would have potential benefits to GM.

Abstract:
Este trabalho demonstra que o padrão evolutivo dos shopping centers os conduziu a um enquadramento em três momentos: (i) como centro de abastecimento, quando surge como proposta voltada ao planejamento territorial; (ii) como produto imobiliário, quando agentes deste setor passam a edificá-los e a controlá-los e; (iii) como produto de consumo, quando tendo assumido a condição de mercadoria, tendeu a acompanhar as demandas oriundas dos novos modos de produção e consumo no final do século XX, que incluem o consumo de sensações, experiências e lugares e que tem como marcos a descartabilidade e a necessidade de inovação constante. Em seguida, nota-se que esta condição, de produto de consumo (descartável, mutante, de rápida obsolescência) associado ao caráter inercial das edificações, os torna empreendimentos altamente vulneráveis no contexto da sustentabilidade urbana (econômica e sócio-cultural). Pôde-se concluir assim, que a dinâmica presente nesta dupla condição exige um maior controle do desenvolvimento urbano no que se refere à implantação deste tipo de empreendimento imobiliário.
This paper shows that the evolution of shopping centers standards lead them to a framing at three moments: (i) as a supplying center, when it appeared as a proposal concerning territorial planning; (II) as real estate product, when entrepreneurs from that sector start to build and control them ; (III) as consumption product, when assuming the merchandise condition, it tended to follow the emergent demands from new ways of production and consumption in the end of century XX, that include the consumption of sensations, experiences and places, that has as landmark the necessity of constant innovation. After that, this condition, of consumption product (dismissible, mutant, of fast obsolescence) associate to the inertial character of its buildings, transforms them into highly vulnerable enterprises in the context of the urban sustainability. Concluding, the dynamics concerning this double condition require a higher control of the urban development when refer to this kind of real estate enterprise.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study is to examine whether there is a change in physician's behavior because of increased competition in the primary care market. The hypothesis is that increased competition in the healthcare market increases the physician's tendency to prescribe drugs in order to attract patients. Therefore, this paper aims to examine whether the number of opioids prescribed has increased due to a Swedish reform known as the System of Choice that was implemented between 2007-2010, whose target was to increase the competition in the healthcare market. A difference-in-difference method is applied to examine the causal relationship between the reform and the number of prescriptions of opioids. This method is applicable since the counties introduced the reform at different points in time. The result is not statistically significant but the estimate is positive which corresponds to previous literature. However, the result could indicate that the System of Choice has had no effect on the number of opioids prescribed.

Abstract:
This chapter examines the development of a new market-logic practice in academic science, namely the creation of university–industry research centers. It begins by reviewing the origins of this practice, then tracks its early development as well as limits to its growth and spread. It then goes on to examine policy decisions that removed these limits and replaced them with incentives, and considers how political concern with the economic impact of innovation contributed to these decisions. The chapter concludes with a look at the subsequent takeoff of this practice, followed by a discussion of the conditions that appear to have been necessary for this takeoff to occur.

Abstract:
Shared service centres and business centers are a technique that multinational organizations may use to boost the effectiveness of their company operations. Even business centers and Shared Service Centers are impacted by global developments and are continuously seeking new methods to develop, offer services more effectively, and maintain their competitiveness. Artificial intelligence is now having a big influence on how business centers operate and is becoming more integrated. This article's objective is to investigate the potential uses and existing status of artificial intelligence in business centres in Slovakia. A case study based on several cases was used as part of a qualitative approach to process the empirical portion of the paper. Based on the research, it can be concluded that in the case of business centers in Slovakia, it is not possible to determine a uniform state and level of implementation of artificial intelligence. The status and possibilities of implementation are largely influenced by the activities that the centers perform - or the service they provide. The centers provide various types of services, while in some services the human factor cannot be replaced by artificial intelligence (human resources, more serious decisions in the field of finances, etc.). The limitation of our research is the examination of selected three business centers operating in the Slovak market. In the future, this research can be expanded to other centers in Slovakia as well as in other countries.

Abstract:
To achieve the competitiveness of small businesses in the market with high-quality standards, it is crucial to unite them in the local area. Since the market is dominated by large agricultural producers who reduce the price of products by the amount of products, survival is endangered, and thus the business of small producers of local food products. The subject of the research is to study in detail the determinants of the efficiency of a distribution center that cooperates with small businesses and provides them with a buyout and a secure market. In order to highlight the key aspects of the work of the distribution center for fruits and vegetables, the economic indicators for the period 2009-2019 were analyzed and methods were used to detect which variables are crucial for the association and inclusion of small businesses in distribution centers for the placement of fruit in educational institutions participating in the implementation of the school scheme.

Cristia, Julian P., and Paulo Bastos. Entry and Quality Choices in Child Care Markets. Inter-American Development Bank, December 2010. http://dx.doi.org/10.18235/0011186.

Full text
Abstract:
Many developing countries have adopted the market approach for expanding the supply of child care, but little is known about the economic behavior of independent providers. This paper draws on uniquely rich administrative data on child care centers and their inputs from São Paulo to examine the role of local household income in shaping the entry and quality choices of private suppliers. It documents three main facts: (1) entry rates are considerably higher in high-income districts; (2) the quality of provision as measured by teachers¿ schooling, group size and equipment is highly heterogeneous across space and increases systematically with local household income; and (3) a considerable share of centers operates below recommended (but not regulated) quality standards, especially in low-income districts. These findings accord with a model in which heterogeneous providers optimally adjust the quality of care to the willingness to pay for quality of local consumers. Market-driven heterogeneity in the quality of provision across space is a key consideration for understanding the effect of regulations on the supply of child care.

Abstract:
Recently, the Junichiro Koizumi and Shinzo Abe administration has adopted labor reforms, and monetary authorities have updated unconventional monetary policies: quantitative easing of money supply and negative interest rate control. It can be identified that quantitative easing policy and negative interest rate policy have introduced and stimulated new styles of profit-seeking through stock market transactions, which only increases corporate and bank profits under a stagnant labor productivity growth rate. Under such a context, this paper analyzes the changing phase of the profit-seeking patterns of the financial and non-financial sector in Japan. The hypothesis is that the large-scale corporate sector has created a new profit-seeking paradigm and that this has been supported by the monetary control of the so-called "Abenomics".

Abstract:
This paper's main concern is to assess which "industrial policies" would be meaningful for Latin America nowadays. The first section introduces the theme while the second section considers definitions of "industrial policies" and their nature in the past. The third section centers on national growth experiences that may serve as paradigms. Section IV is on economies, which are growth paradigms, and on their policies. Section V is on present multilateral constraints on "industrial policies". Section VI explains the institution building, macroeconomics and industrial policies. Section VII analyses industrial policy alternatives. The paper concludes with section VIII that is on policy recommendations seeking to improve criteria to pick winners where market failures are especially costly.

Fostering Water and Sanitation Markets in Latin America and the Caribbean: How the Public Sector Can Support the Private Sector to Bridge Coverage Gaps and Improve Service Quality for Low-Income Popul. Inter-American Development Bank, August 2016. http://dx.doi.org/10.18235/0006323.

Full text
Abstract:
In Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC), according to 2015 figures from the Joint Monitoring Program, over 100 million people do not have access to adequate sanitation services, and nearly 34 million do not have access to safely managed drinking water. A disproportionate number of these households are from lower-income market segments and wealth quintiles, primarily residing in the rapidly growing, high-density periphery of established urban centers, small towns, and rural areas. Access to water and sanitation has been declared by the United Nations to be a human right, indicating that there is still a significant challenge in LAC with respect to universal access to basic human rights. To resolve this challenge, traditional practices involving the NGO, aid, development and public sectors as leaders will not solve the problem efficiently or effectively without adequate engagement and enabling of the private sector.

Full text
Abstract:
Electric two-wheelers (E2Ws) are becoming increasingly popular as an eco-friendly mode of transport. They provide a convenient and efficient option for short-distance travel, particularly in urban areas. However, the widespread adoption of E2Ws in India still faces several challenges. In order to address these issues, the Alliance for an Energy Efficient Economy (AEEE) and International Copper Association India (ICA India) have teamed up to identify the key barriers hindering the adoption of electric two-wheelers in the market. The joint research project aims to identify effective pathways for a market transformation for E2Ws in India and promote the widespread adoption of E2Ws as a sustainable and efficient mode of transport. The goal of the study is to facilitate the increased adoption of E2Ws in India by examining the perspectives of various stakeholders, including consumers, fleet operators, financial institutions, dealerships, and service centers. The study was conducted in three zones - North Zone (Delhi, Lucknow), West Zone (Mumbai, Jaipur, Ahmedabad, Rajkot), and South Zone (Bangalore, Coimbatore, Hyderabad, Chennai). The study collected 1159 responses from both E2W users and internal combustion engine (ICE) users across India, as well as E2W dealers, in order to gain a more comprehensive understanding of the E2W market across the country. The survey results revealed key insights about the prevalence of E2W users, their awareness of ICE options, and their willingness to adopt more eco-friendly modes of transport. The report covers key aspects of E2Ws, including purchase, charging, performance, aftersales, safety, retrofitting, etc. Chapter 1 introduces the E2W ecosystem and sets the background and need for the study. Chapter 2 details the scope and methodology adopted for the research. Various barriers and motivating factors and their role in attracting or deterring consumers from or towards EV adoption, like charging practices, usage behaviour, ownership cost, purchase experience, etc., were delved into. The chapter also details the respondents’ profiles and the surveying techniques incorporated for the study, i.e., face-toface interviews with E2W users and In-person qualitative discussions with the E2W dealers. It was found that the younger generations had an equal propensity towards both ICE and E2Ws. Also, the average income of EV owners was found to be higher than the average income of ICE two-wheelers. Chapter 3 discusses the findings and key insights from the consumer survey. It examines the key perceptions of customers regarding E2W and ICE vehicles and their purchase and usage practices. The chapter discusses important current and future triggers and barriers to EV adoption. Access to charging stations, Safety concerns, high upfront costs, long charging times, etc., were found to be the major deterrents towards EV adoption. Chapter 4 presents the key insights from the dealer consultation and discusses the various obstacles, including warranty and battery replacement costs, low margins, the lack of supplier credit facilities, battery backup, the high price of E2Ws, and low speed. These obstacles impede their ability to sell electric vehicles and compete with other types of vehicle dealers. Nonetheless, as the EV market grows and develops, manufacturers and dealers will be able to overcome these obstacles and establish a more sustainable and competitive EV industry. Chapter 4 presents the key insights from the dealer consultation and discusses the various obstacles dealers face, including warranty and battery replacement costs, low margins, the lack of supplier credit facilities, battery backup, the high price of E2Ws, and low speed. These obstacles impede their ability to sell electric vehicles and compete with other types of vehicle dealers. Nonetheless, as the EV market grows and develops, manufacturers and dealers will be able to overcome these obstacles and establish a more sustainable and competitive EV industry. Chapter 5 provides recommendations to address the different barriers to E2W adoption in India, like high upfront costs of E2W, charging stations, safety issues, battery issues, etc. The whitepaper provides recommendations to address the challenges and barriers hindering the adoption of E2Ws in India. These recommendations cover various topics such as consumer perceptions, demand incentives, and product-related issues like servicing, safety, and performance. To encourage ix the wider adoption of E2Ws, the whitepaper proposes several measures, including improving the availability of charging infrastructure, regular maintenance of charging points, and investment support to charging and swapping players. Additionally, partnering with financial institutions to offer affordable loans is recommended to make E2Ws more accessible to consumers. These measures are critical to overcoming the challenges faced by E2W users and promoting the adoption of ecofriendly transport options in India. To achieve the target of increasing energy efficiency and reducing carbon emissions by 33-35% by 2030, as set by the Indian government, it is crucial for the various stakeholders in the electric vehicle ecosystem to implement the strategies outlined in the whitepaper. The aim is to accelerate the adoption of E2Ws and support the government in achieving its goals.

Abstract:
Since the turn of the century, emerging market economies have begun to develop markets for bonds denominated in their local currencies, thus trying to avoid the “original sin” that resulted in many previous crises. This paper tries to determine the impact of foreign investment in these markets for seven Latin American economies. It finds that foreign investment can be either a blessing or a curse, depending on depreciation expectations.

Full text
Abstract:
This paper discusses the conditions under which policy-based lending may further economic development within a Latin American and Caribbean context, given the current state of financial markets in most countries of the region. The discussion is intended as a conclusion to the articles presented at the Conference on Policy Based Finance and Alternatives for Financial Market Development, many of which are included in this book. In some degree, this chapter is an attempt at a compromise; a position that does not recommend a formal adoption of policy based finance as it exists in East Asia, but rather proposes the incorporation of the universal lessons from the East Asian experience into the more market-based reforms currently under way in Latin America and the Caribbean. While the discussion in most of this book is centered on credit programs, the conclusions are equally valid for other varieties of government interventions in financial markets. This article was originally published in the book Policy-Based and Market Alternatives: East Asian Lessons for Latin America and the Caribbean in June 1997, by the Inter-American Development Bank.
