Impact of transaction-oriented financial assets on firm innovation in China: Effects of liquid reserve and risk mitigation
This study examines the impact of transaction-oriented financial assets on firm innovation using data from non-financial listed firms in China’s A-share market from 2008–2019. These findings suggest that transaction-oriented financial assets promote innovation. Specifically, such an allocation mitigates the influence of external financing constraints on firms by providing continuous financial support for innovation activities, thereby demonstrati…
Do financial development and institutional quality impede or stimulate the shadow economy? A comparative analysis of developed and developing countries
Financial development (FD) and institutional quality (IQ) shape the invisible informal economies. This study conducts an empirical analysis of how financial development (FD) and institutional quality (IQ) impact the hidden shadow economy, with a particular focus on the differences between developed and developing countries. Using the CS-ARDL estimation technique, the findings reveal that FD and improved IQ significantly reduce the shadow economy …
Does governance and energy spur FDI inflows in Malaysia
Numerous studies have examined FDI determinants in Malaysia but the influence of governance quality and energy security remained insufficiently explored. Therefore, this study empirically evaluates the impact of governance quality and energy security, alongside conventional economic variables, on FDI inflows in Malaysia. Using time series data from 1970 to 2022 and employing Dynamic Ordinary Least Squares (D-OLS) and Fully Modified Ordinary Least…

“Does Institutional Quality, Natural Resources, Globalization, and Renewable Energy Contribute to Environmental Pollution in China? Role of Financialization”
Our study explores the impact of financialization on carbon emissions by utilizing diverse financialization proxies, particularly for China. We examine the impact of financialization, institutional quality, globalization, natural resources, trade openness, and renewable and nonrenewable energy consumption on environmental pollution over the period 1996–2017 by utilizing dynamic autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) simulations. The empirical find…
Comparison of Different Nutritional Screening Approaches and the Determinants of Malnutrition in Under-Five Children in a Marginalized District of Punjab Province, Pakistan
CIAF is a more reliable tool for assessing child nutrition because it not only demonstrates more accurate estimates of malnutrition but also recognizes children with multiple anthropometric failures
Distance to Healthcare Facility and Lady Health Workers’ Visits Reduce Malnutrition in under Five Children: A Case Study of a Disadvantaged Rural District in Pakistan
This study accesses the impact of lady health worker (LHWs) visits in the community and distance to a healthcare facility on the nutritional status of under-five children. Additionally, it explores the perceptions and attitudes of the community about the performance of LHWs. A self-administered instrument was applied to gather data on different parameters, such as children's height, age, weight, and socioeconomic status from 384 rural households …
Research methods in economics and its implications for capital formation
We explore whether public or private capital augments or obstruct Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) inflows by decomposing Domestic Capital Formation (DCF) into private and public capital formation. To this end, we apply Cross-Sectional Autoregressive Distributed Lags (CS-ARDL) approach to analyze panel time-series data. Our empirical results show that public capital crowds in FDI inflows while private capital crowds out FDI inflows. However, insti…
The impact of institutional quality on foreign direct investment inflows: Evidence for developed and developing countries
This study examines the impact of institutional quality on foreign direct investment (F.D.I.) by categorising the countries as developed or developing. We measured institutional quality by the sum of control of corruption and rule of law indicators. We provide evidence that institutional quality positively and significantly impacts F.D.I. in developed countries; specifically, we find that a one standard deviation change in governance significantl…
Outward foreign direct investment and domestic investment: Evidence from China
This paper examines the relationship between outward foreign direct investment (OFDI) and domestic investment (DI) in China using co-integration and Granger causality analyses (including bivariate and multivariate Granger causality models). The results suggest that the conclusions drawn from a bivariate model may not be valid because of the omission of important control variables. The results of the multivariate model show that there is a positiv…
