Value Added Intellectual Coefficient (VAIC) introducedis used as proxy of firms effectiveness in managing its intellectual capital. Datawere drawn from 22 banking firms and 10 samples of publicly traded banking and insurancefirms respectively during 2005-2007. The linear multiple regression analysis suggests thatthe association between the efficiency of value added by a firms major resource bases and(1) return on asset, (2) return on equity, and (3) capital gain, are generally limited and insignificant.This is mainly due to the unique characteristics of banking companies comparedto other sectors. In contrast, for insurance sector confidently shows there is a significant associationbetween efficiency of VAIC toward financial profitability and investors capitalgain. This show that the power of intellectual capital is valuable information for related partiesin decision making and policy creation process especially in considering the growingsignificant role of banking and insurance companies in developing Indonesia economies.

This paper aims to explore how relationship elements fluctuate and business relationshipsdevelop in a volatile country market. Previous studies explored business relationship developmentin stable country markets ignoring the complexity of building relationships in thecontext of high-risk and high uncertainty environment. This study followed the traditions ofinductive logic and used a qualitative approach and multi-case study design. Data was analyzedfollowing the procedure of General Inductive Approach (GIA).The findings suggest thatlearning orientation is a key orientation influencing a companies ability to develop businessrelationships in a high- risk country market and that relationships need to be understoodfrom this perspective rather than simply a relational one. Business relationship developmentin a volatile market can be better understood through the learning perspective than merelywithin the relational perspective. Practical implication of the study is that when exporting toa high risk country market, a company needs to develop its orientation towards learning todevelop its ability and capacity to manage and develop business relationships.
