Résumé :
In his assessment of the theory development within international market entry mode, Cumberland (2006) outlines the importance of devoting more attention to the research linking the theoretical level and the operational level. Other researchers have shown the performance of a firm is highly affected by its internationalisation process and selecting the right entry mode is one of the most critical managerial decisions. Despite many years of interest from researchers, the entry choice strategy area is still considered a frontier issue. Researchers have suggested that managing risk is one of the m

Essay I: Credit Constraint and College Attendance.  This paper shows that housing wealth alleviate credit constraints for potential college attendees by enabling home owners to extract equity from their property and invest it in the education. Using a large US individual-level survey dataset over the 1996-2011 period, I find that one standard deviation increases of housing prices translate into approximately 72,000 more students enrolled in college each year. My results stay significant when I use proxies for aggregate housing demand shocks and for the topological elasticity of housing supply

In the context of established international economic theory, it is well known that international trade of commodities is effectively trading factors of production such as labour and capital. It follows that if factors of production can be moved internationally, then the need for commodity trade is eased, and trade of commodities and movements of factors of production can be substituted for each other. From this, the conclusion can be reached that factor movement is a substitute for commodity trade. Allowing people to migrate from one country to another country involves migration of labour – th

Alshelfan, Ayman Ibrahim. "Maslaha: a New Approach for Islamic Bonds." Thesis, 2014. https://vuir.vu.edu.au/25079/.

Texte intégral
Résumé :
Islamic finance is inextricably linked to Islamic law, or sharia, which is richly detailed and difficult to distil into simple rules. In particular, it invokes the concept of maslaha to prohibit or permit actions and choices on the basis of whether or not it serves the best interest of the community at large. This aspect of Islamic finance has not been addressed and the purpose of this thesis is to fill this gap in knowledge. This thesis conducts a comprehensive investigation of application of the concept of maslaha as a new approach for Islamic bonds in theory and practice. Integrated i

Ridwan, Deni. "An empirical analysis of market discipline imposed by stakeholders in the Indonesian banking sector." Thesis, 2017. https://vuir.vu.edu.au/34836/.

Texte intégral
Résumé :
Financial sector authorities have incorporated market discipline as an integral part of their banking regulatory frameworks. Accordingly, in Indonesia, the Basel II Capital Accord has institutionalized the market discipline as Pillar 3 to complement requirements under Pillar 1 (risk-based calculation of capital) and Pillar 2 (supervisory review process). In addition, the provision of a financial safety net (FSN) has been a key element of the policy response to recent financial crises. This provision, however, might potentially lead to moral hazard outcomes that could impair the incentives for

These plants in Indonesia can be developed either by the PLN (a state-owned enterprise) or by private investors.
