Abstract

The choice of exchange rate regime is the most relevant decision in the economic world that must be faced by the economic authority until now. Exchange rate regime that is applied by one country become a controversial debate after the Asia's crisis in the year 1997-1998, especially for developing countries and emerging economies in Asia. The purpose of this research is to see the impact of export diversification, intensive margin and extensive margin to the choice of the exchange rate regime in nine emerging and developing countries in Asia 1991-2014. This research uses the panel logistic regression model to analyze the two model that are used in the research; they are: model 1 (the impact of export diversification to the exchange rate regime),and model 2 (the impact of extensive margin and intensive margin to the exchange rate regime. To avoid and to lessen the chances of endogeneity problem therefore, all the independent variables and the control variable must be lagged in one period. The results of the regression show that export diversification have a significant positive impact on the exchange rate regime. When export diversification is decomposed into intensive margin and extensive margins, the result shows that the extensive margins also have a significant positive impact towards the exchange rate regime, while the intensive margin does not show any significant impact towards the exchange rate regime choice. Keywords: Exchange Rate Regime, Export Diversification, Intensive Margin, Extensive Margin, Emerging and Developing Countries in Asia.JEL: F31, L25, O53

Abstract

Financial technology, or so called as "Fintech”, has been remarked as a disruptive idea that changed our current financial system. In Indonesia, one of the emerging financial practices related to Fintech is the online-based peer-to-peer lending (P2PL). This research has two objectives: to explore current scheme of P2PL in Surabaya and to learn how P2PL drives the economy of Surabaya. To meet the objectives, numbers of existing papers are being reviewed related to the matter of P2PL and Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs). Primary data is also gathered through in-depth interview from two basic stakeholders of P2PL in Surabaya: the provider of fintech apps and the owner of MSMEs who is benefiting from the fintech apps. The fintech provider is interviewed regarding to the channeling scheme of funds from the lenders to the MSMEs, while the MSME is interviewed related to the escalation of their business after receiving funds from the P2PL provider. By exploring this topic, the scheme of P2PL and the importance of P2PL to drive regional economy are being clearly described. The results indicate that the funding from P2PL providers help the MSMEs to boost their business performance, and the boosted MSMEs are affecting the regional economy.

Abstract

Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in recent years has created a positive impact for ASEAN countries. FDI give spillover effects that directly contribute capital improvements, technological developments, and global market access, also skills and managerial transfers. In order to attract FDI inflow into country, ASEAN member countries need to know what factors which attract investment related to the needs of infrastructure types and other factors. The purpose of this study is examining the determinant of FDI in ASEAN countries. This research method used is panel data regression period 2005-2015 from 10 countries in ASEAN. The results showed simultaneously and partially telecommunication infrastructure, market size, trade openness, and labor force variable have significant relationship with FDI inflows in ASEAN countries.

Abstract

The ever-increasing share of fast fashion consumerism shadowed the profound craftsmanship of local produce in the developing countries. This subsequently created hardship to the local communities and designers across the non-western world which belongs to small and medium scale enterprise sector. Beyond this the fashion commodities saw a substantial fall in design elements which made the products very banal in nature. Consequently, the trade turned towards conscious consumption and here emerged a few sustainable designers and craft oriented communities which attracted attention in the recent past. Problems of sustainability and consumption are burning issues nowadays, fashion houses and international brands propagandize purchase for better consumer base, whereas originally sustainable local-based craftsmen still stay in the shade. Due to lack of expert management and target allocated branding real sources of national heritage cannot gain fame on the international level. In this research, we have studied and analyzed the problems faced by hereditary communities and ethnic designers which lie in small and medium scale enterprise sector from two developing economies Ethiopia and Ukraine. The main purpose of the work is to design effective marketing & management strategy for expansion of local communities and entrepreneurs to the international level. Particular attention is given to communities and designers who promote national heritage and for a part of small and medium scale enterprises which are one of the concerns of economic development of the two countries.  Keywords: Fashion Communities, Small and Medium Scale Enterprise (SME), Fashion Marketing and Branding, Non-Western Economies, Sustainable Development.

Abstract

This paper identifies the dynamic pattern of East Java growth of manufacturing sector and addresses the basic questions of individual economic firms whether they would be better off if increasing physical capital or investment in human capital. To know which one of the two main inputs in industrial sector that is more needed than the other, the marginal productivity of each production factors must be identified. I estimate the models which accommodate the optimum input level by applying general method of moment (GMM) and panel instrumental variable (IV) techniques on some reduced form models. I find that on the demand function of labor and capital as the first step of IV or Two Stage Least Square (2SLS) show that the elasticity of both of them are inelastic and elasticity of labor demand is more sensitive than capital. In the production function as the second step, yields that the most productive production factors is labor so that investment in this factor production is beneficial for industrial growth in East Java. On the other side, the physical capital has not been reached the optimum level but the elasticity of capital in production is low. Hypothetically, the inelasticity of physical capital is because macroeconomic aspects which is monetary policy and expected economic situation. Considering these two arguments, quality of labor should be more concerned in the context of regional economy of East Java because capital aspect cannot be interfered at regional level at least for large capital scale.Keywords: Capital, Labor, Growth, General Method of Moment (GMM), Instrumental Variable (IV)JEL: C50, C33, C36, M51, L29, L60, O25, D22
