Abstract

The low uptake of life insurance is a matter of significant concern both within Africa and globally due to its aims to investigate the factors contributing to the poor adoption of life insurance products in Botswana. Through a survey conducted among 800 randomly selected individuals representing diverse genders in Botswana, with an 80% response rate, this study sheds light on the factors that hinder the uptake of insurance products in the country. The findings indicate that the low adoption of insurance products in Botswana can be attributed, at least in part, to various factors including low income, pervasive poverty, limited insurance awareness and education, and inadequate regulatory oversight.

Abstract

The Study aims to ascertain how the debt-to-equity ratio, earnings management, and current ratio affect bond ratings in corporate businesses assessed by PT. PEFINDO 2020–2022 and listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. The reason earnings management is used as mediation in this research is a novelty from previous research, where earnings management is rarely used. The earnings management model used by the Jones modified has a higher level of accuracy compared to previous models, where the measurement is through revenue recognition which has the highest accuracy. Apart from that, many companies use earnings management practices so that the company's finances look good to investors, so the company will get new investors. In this study, 135 sample bond types that fit the predefined criteria were obtained from 26 organizations using purposive sampling with several preset criteria. Data analysis methods were uses path analysis techniques with the Lisrel program version 8.8 to analyze the available bond types. This study suggests that earnings management does not mediate between bond ratings and the current ratio. In particular, bond ratings are significantly impacted by the current ratio, the debt-to-equity ratio does not strongly impact earnings management, and bond ratings are not significantly affected by earnings management.

Selection of research samples through purposive sampling to obtain 19 companies. Panel Data Regression Analysis is a data analysis process that processes data using the Eviews 12 program. The level of loan, BOPO, and CAR are assumed to have an effect on bank profitability in this analysis. The effect of credit risk ratio amplifies the impact on the level of lending, BOPO, and CAR on profitability. The results of data analysis contain the statement that bank profitability can be influenced by lending and BOPO, but cannot be influenced by CAR. Similarly, the role of credit risk cannot moderate the effect of CAR on ROA but can weaken the effect of lending and BOPO on bank ROA.

Abstract

Technical efficiency is crucial for the advancement and growth of contemporary enterprises and is a major area of policy concern in many countries. Numerous pieces of evidence suggest that Ethiopia's industries, particularly those depend on wood were not operating as efficient as they should be. As a result, the country is not benefiting as much from the sector as it ought to, and it is now compelled to import wooden products at a higher cost in foreign exchange. Therefore, to examine the technical efficiency of the industries; four purposively selected main cities such as Addis Ababa, Hawassa, Jima and Bahir Dar were selected. From these cities, information was collected, analyzed, and the results were obtained. The result shows that the technical efficiency of Ethiopia's wood industries is lower than expected. Out of a total of 170, about 149 (87.6 %) of the furniture workshops are technically inefficient. This is because workers working in the wood industries are less educated. In addition to this lack of on-the-job training, lack of modern machineries and insufficient skills to use them properly, inconvenient production and sales area, shortage and quality of raw materials, insufficient capital, lack of market connection, have been shown to be the reasons. Therefore, to improve the technical efficiency of the industries, it is better to have continuous vocational training, loan support so that they can get and use better machines, as well as convenient manufacturing, product display and sales, improving and facilitating market linkages.
