Abstract

The Nepalese stock market is characterized by emerging market dynamics and notable volatility. It is influenced by factors such as regulatory developments, economic conditions, and investor sentiment, shaping its growth trajectory and investor behavior. This study examines the influence of psychological factors on investment decisions within the Nepalese share market, emphasizing the mediating role of financial literacy. To achieve the stated objective, data were collected from the primary source using a structured questionnaire administered through random sampling technique. The respondents comprised 410 individual investors inside the Kathmandu Valley. The SmartPLS 4.0 was used to analyze the structural relationships within the proposed theoretical model. The findings of this study validated the set hypotheses that psychological factors have positive and significant effect on investment decisions among the investors in Nepalese share market. In the context of Nepal, where the share market is characterized by volatility and emerging market dynamics, these psychological biases often lead to suboptimal investment choices. Findings indicate that investors with higher financial literacy levels are better equipped to mitigate the adverse effects of psychological biases, leading to more rational and informed investment decisions. The study highlights the critical need for enhanced financial education programs to empower investors and improve overall market efficiency. By understanding the interplay between psychological factors and financial literacy, policymakers and financial institutions can develop targeted strategies to foster a more stable and resilient investment environment in Nepal.

Abstract

Eliminating gender prejudice in job advancement is not only crucial for promoting fairness and equality but also essential for maximizing organizational success. The primary objective of this study is to explore the glass ceiling factors that hinder the career growth of women employees in Nepalese commercial banks. To achieve the research objective, the data were collected from the primary source mainly through structured questionnaire and group discussion method under random sampling technique. An exploratory research design was followed to explore the factors that restrict the career development of women employees in Nepalese commercial banks. Merely this study has been completed with an empirical survey which was thoroughly conducted using a self-administered questionnaire and group discussion and the sample consisted of 280 middle-level women executives. For presenting and analyzing the data both descriptive and inferential statistics were used. The study revealed that Nepalese women workers do not face much career related problems. The organizations perceive that women are as capable as males in discharging their responsibilities. However, there are some assignments in which women are under rated than males in dealing with some unique situations. Likewise, some cultural issues, management and family perceptions are likely to hinder the performance and enthusiasm of the women toward their career advancement.
