Abstract

This study was carried out to determine the effects of governance on economic development in Nigeria. Annual time series data on Nigeria from 1996 to 2019 on GDP per capita, Control of corruption, Rule of Law, Voice and Accountability, Natural Resources, Investment, and Total Government Expenditure which were sourced from World Development Indicator database were used for the analysis. Auto Regressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) technique was employed in the study. The result indicated that the variables exhibited long run relationship and that all the explanatory variables are significant determinants of economic development (except Natural Resources) during the period of the study. The results suggested that a unit increase in the level of, control of corruption, investment, and total government expenditure dampens economic development by 26.3%, 8.08%, and 2.2% respectively in the long run, while a unit increase in voice and accountability, and income from natural resources enhance economic development in Nigeria by 57.5% and 3.7% respectively. The study therefore recommended the enhancement of good governance whereby citizens’ voice and choice prevail in government. Bureaucracy in government’s organization should also encourage accountability and transparency. Furthermore, an ideal policy environment that promotes domestic investment, and reduce cost of governance should be promulgated.

Abstract

This study uses an archival technique to examine the impact of COVID-19 on working capital management. The study reviews previous research published in high-impact journals between 2000 and 2021. In addition, the study uses the risk trade-off theory, market timing theory, and cash conversion cycle theory as lenses to understand the relationship between COVID-19 and working capital management. Both theoretical and empirical reviews indicate that the impact of the COVID19 plague has weakened the finances of business organizations on a global scale. Thus, reviewed theories suggest that for the business organizations to come into the limelight of financial muscle amidst COVID-19, managers should review variable costs and work with their main partners, and access to funds that have been made available to corporate organizations as a result of the mitigation of the COVID-19 plague.

Abstract

This study investigates the relationship between ownership structure and the market value of commercial banks in Nigeria, utilizing agency theory as a theoretical framework. Panel data from 2014 to 2022, comprising 63 firm-year observations from 7 commercial banks, is analyzed using Fully Modified Least Squares (FMOLS) and Phillips-Perron cointegration tests. The findings reveal that domestic shareholdings have a statistically significant positive effect on bank valuations, while foreign and government shareholdings have significant negative effects. The results suggest that increased domestic investment enhances market value, whereas higher foreign and government ownership may reduce it. These findings underscore the importance of ownership structure in shaping market perceptions and provide valuable insights for policymakers aiming to optimize ownership arrangements in the Nigerian banking sector.
