Abstract

Purpose: The present study examines the impact of corporate governance mechanisms on listed Moroccan banks' financial performance. Research methodology: This study investigates the relationship between listed banks' governance mechanisms and financial performance in the CSE for six years between 2014-2019. This study employs three performance measures, return on assets, return on equity, and Tobin's Q, to determine bank performance. This research uses the GMM EGLS approach to analyze data. In the first phase of this empirical research, we did use OLS, Fixed Effects, and Radom Effects regressions to show their inefficiency. Results: Our results portray that most board mechanisms have a negative impact on financial performance. In comparison, the audit committee and nomination & remuneration committee have a positive effect on financial performance. Limitations: Many qualitative and quantitative factors could influence financial performance and not only the used variables in this paper. Contribution: This research shows that the dynamic connection between corporate governance and financial performance is robust in the Moroccan banking context. Also, our study has important implications for establishing good corporate governance practices in emerging economies.

Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of the study is to systematically review and examine the effectiveness of corporate governance mechanisms in restraining earnings management among the listed firms of the Casablanca Stock Exchange. Research methodology: In this study, we used the modified Jones model to calculate discretionary accruals. Our sample comprises 27 firms covering the period from 2016 to 2018, analyzed by the EGLS estimator. Results: Our empirical results show that gender diversity, board size, and audit committee independence reduce the managers' discretion. Simultaneously, we found a significantly positive association between earning management and different corporate governance characteristics such as CEO duality, institutional investor ownership, and family ownership. We do not find any evidence that audit committee size, ownership concentration, and managerial ownership significantly influence discretionary accruals. Limitations: This study's main limitation is that we did not address the direction of discretionary accruals, which does not allow us to detect the motivational aspects behind earnings management. Contribution: The results of this study will help Moroccan authorities in their formulation of an appropriate regulatory framework because very few studies have been conducted in this area in the case of the Moroccan listed companies, especially with a large set of governance variables as our empirical model.

Abstract

Purpose: This paper discusses major stock market trends and provides information on stock market forecasting. Stock market forecasting is essentially an attempt to forecast the future value of the stock market. Doing this manually can be a strenuous task, and thus we need some software and algorithms to make our task easier. This paper also lists a few of those algorithms, formulas, and calculations associated with them. These algorithms and models primarily revolve around the concept of Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning. Research Methodology: This study is based on descriptive, quantitative, and cross-sectional research design. We used a multivariate algorithm model and indicators to examine stocks for investing or trading and their efficiency. It concludes with the recommendations for enhancing trading strategies using machine learning algorithms. Results: This study suggests that after comparing and combining the various algorithms using experimental analysis, the random forest algorithm is the most suitable algorithm for forecasting a stock's market prices based on various data points from historical data. Limitations: The applicability of the study was only hampered by unforeseeable tragic events such as economic crisis, market collapse, etc Contribution: Successful stock prediction will be a substantial benefit for stock market institutions and provide real-world answers to the challenges that stock investors face. As a result, gaining significant knowledge on the subject is quite beneficial for us.

Results from quantitative research showed that there is a positive relationship between nation branding and infrastructure financing. Also, it showed that road infrastructure and airports were the most related to nation branding with public-private partnerships and bilateral/multilateral loans to finance their development, respectively. Limitations: As a result of the COVID-19, the research did not manage to have some focus groups for a depth understanding and comprehensive response of the participants. Contribution: The results will help the Zimbabwean government consider developing the road networks and airports to enhance the nation’s brand.

Abstract

Purpose: This paper considers the prospects for constructing a model of Total Factor Productivity (HenceTFP) of investment, technological progress and growth of the technological share in TFP. Research Methodology: This paper tries to understand the driving factors of TFP by establishing the relations between the factors. Results: Models consider emphasizing investment, technological progress and its impact on TFP and also on relation of investment with TFP and growth of technological share in TFP through the experience process. The claims in models provide a relation between investment and TFP; a relation between technological efficiency and technological progress is formed and their effect on TFP is also established. Limitations: The limitations of the study are that we have considered selected parameters of TFP only. To study TFP completely a fuller model is needed where all the parameters would be considered. Contribution: This study will help to understand TFP and its internal dynamics. A quotient between technological progress and investment is constructed that hampers the growth of technological progress. This gives a caution to the financial institutions about the enhancement of the quotient.
