Abstract

India, which largely represented Women, SCs/STs/OBCs and other weaker sections of the society basically had no livelihood security in its rural areas. Microfinance plays a very important and catalytic role in activating the factors of production leading to the overall economic and social development by facilitating the enjoyment of right to work, right to social security, right to development and right to adequate standard of living in India. Microfinance has been a boon to potential rural entrepreneurs. It promotes mutual help and co-operation among members. The institutions which provide microfinance services include NABARD, SIDBI, and NBFCs etc. The present piece of study puts a light on not only the real effectiveness and impact of microfinance by converting the poor into producers but also ensures microfinance programs compliances with right-based norms and principles.

Out of the total population, 114 SME entrepreneurs were selected for the sample using random sampling technique. Selfadministered questionnaire was used to collect primary data and secondary data sources were also used. Pearson correlation and regression analysis were applied to analyze the data.

Opportunity focus, risk taking, innovativeness, resource leveraging, customer intensity and value creation are the key factors which affect entrepreneurial firm performance whereas proactiveness has very little role as they are lack in forward-looking thoughts which can forecast future market needs accurately. The results depict that there is a significant positive relationship between gender and firm performance, with female entrepreneurs having a higher performance than their male counterparts. The study identified the necessity to place a high attention for satisfying their customer, which in return plays an important role for SMEs of doing business and marketing practices. Entrepreneurs should be concern on modern marketing strategies and techniques to boost their entrepreneurial capabilities and capacities to run their businesses with successful outcomes. Finally, the study provides practical implications for practitioners and theoretical implications for researchers as an array of progressive areas for future endeavors.

Abstract

Pensions play an important role in social security system of a nation. It helps reduce poverty among the elderly and ensures a decent standard of living after retirement. However, due to the impact of many economic and demographic variables, members of the system may leave the system earlier than supposed when they decide to have early retirement or lump-sum withdrawal of social insurance benefits before retirement age (Argento et al., 2015). There are many types of early retirement withdrawals such as hardship withdrawals, loans (withdrawals of a portion of your own retirement plan money, withdrawals, and transfers to another form of retirement accumulation. Motivations for early withdrawal may be different for each individual. In 2020, however, under the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, lump-sum early retirement withdrawal becomes a more attractive option for individuals (Lee andHanna, 2020). Accordingly, this study aims to examine the factors affecting the intention to withdraw lump-sum social insurance benefits of employees through a survey of 250 participants that are currently in Vietnam, thereby providing policy recommendations to finalize legislation on social insurance and ensure the rights of workers.
