The objective of this article is to assess the contribution of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) to improving the performance of Cameroonian MFIs. To achieve this, data was collected from 88 MFIs through a survey by the use of questionnaires. Main Component Analysis, correlation testing and the Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) method were used. The results obtained show that, in terms of ICT, the use of several computers, an internet connection and an intranet within the company can enhance the MFI's social performance. Furthermore, then the existence of a website does not favour financial performance, with the overall performance, it is rather an asset in the same way as the intranet. These results highlight the need to strengthen access to the commercial internet.

Marketing Ethics is an area of applied ethics which deals with the moral principles behind the operation and regulation of marketing. Marketing Ethics refer to making marketing decisions that are morally/ethically right. Marketing Ethics is strategic consideration in organizational decisions. Decisions taken in an organization (like Mc Donalds) can be taken by individuals or groups (corporations), but everyone has to be influenced by culture. Everyone must decide how to act.Ethical decisionmaking can helpfully be thought of as a matter of marketing tactic/strategy. As a methodology of quality (and not only quantity), communication in crisis gets a new form and takes a different meaning.

Like every other human being, scientists also have to allocate their scarce resources of time and production according to personal preferences. Today’s scientific system is dominated by different (external) incentives that influence a researcher’s decisions. With respect to the individual research strategy, there seems to be a conflict between scientific rigor and practical relevance. In addition, only certain scientific results actually find their way into the general public.We assume therefore that the use of virological and economic expertise are two different forms of reception of science by another social sphere. If our assumption is correct, the question arises as to how such rules of reception are formed and stabilized. This question will be investigated in the present paper. With regard to his or her publication strategy, the scientist therefore has to decide interdependently. Based on the economic approach in general, and Gary S. Becker’s theory of time allocation specifically, we develop a simple model to explain scientific decision-making behavior. We derive several implications with regard to a strategy on time allocation in research processes, and thus contribute to a better understanding of scientific decision-making processes. In our paper, we concentrate on the general conditions in (business) economics, but the findings can also be applied to other (human) sciences.In order to be as up-to-date as possible, we take an additionallook at the role of science in the current COVID-19 crisis as well.

The objective of this study was to establish the determinants of utilization of mobile money services by micro and small enterprises in Kenya. In the study, 2016 Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises establishment data set by Kenya National Bureau of Statistics was used. To establish the determinants of utilization of mobile money services by firms in Kenya, heteroskedastic probit model was estimated. The results of the study indicated that group membership, gender, credit access, education, mobile phone ownership, radio ownership, registration of business, number of business units and total number of employees determined utilization of mobile money services. The study recommended the need for the government through the regulatory authorities and mobile money services providers to design supportive policies that would scale up the utilization of mobile money services to more financially excluded MSEs in Kenya, specifically through addressing the infrastructural constraints in rural areas, outreach services, and other incentives that would encourage more uptakes of mobile money services

FDI inflows in Bangladesh have been increasing at a faster rate for the past few years. This paper examines the impact of FDI on the county’s export, employment
generation, and gross domestic product (GDP). This paper found FDI has a positive relationship with the export sector while incoming FDI has not any positive effect on
employment generation. It has also been observed that local private investment has a greater impact on the GDP growth of the Bangladeshi economy than FDI. There is
also inequality between sectors in terms of FDI inflows. The manufacturing and power sector attracting higher FDI whereas agriculture, services, trade and commerce are
neglected. It is important to mention that barriers such as weak infrastructure, low skilled labour force and labour unrest, social and political instability discourage foreign
investors from investing in the country. So, it is time to pay attention to these problems and search for remedies to attain a higher level of FDI.

Today, company start-ups are constantly paying attention to meeting customer demand to protect their competitive advantage over their competitors. This research tested
four hypotheses on the relationship of strategic purchasing to supply chain management. The hypotheses were tested with a survey of purchasing executives and the results
were analyzed using a regression analysis. All of the hypothesized relationships were supported. The results indicate that strategic purchasing is positively related to supplier
responsiveness, changes in the supplier market, supplier communication and the firm’s performance. Managerial and research implications are discussed

The economic significance and benefits of foreign trade also known as international trade to the economies of developing countries cannot be over emphasized. Its role and
contributions to the gross domestic earnings, employment generation, economic development, and poverty reduction in these underdeveloped countries such as Nigeria,
Ghana, Benin Republic, and others have been too glaring especially in agrarian economies with fertile arable land.The main aim of this paper is to examine in-depth the
contributions and relationship between international trade and economic development of developing African countries.It further recommends that stringent macroeconomic
policies should be formulated that would encourage and increase the multiplier effect of these foreign trades. Part of these policies is targeted towards exchange rates, tariffs,
import and export duties, subsidies, and actions that would promote international trade.The research further concludes that foreign trade is a key macroeconomic driver in
any economy which needs to be encouraged in developing African countries as their multiplier effects have the potentials of driving the needed development goals of these
nations. And for this to be achieved, these nations must come up with workable localized macroeconomic policies that suit and drive their interest as against borrowed
economic policies from the developed European and Asian nations. This study made use of time series secondary data obtained from the World Bank (WDI) and the United
Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) of developing African countries for a period between 2000 and 2019. A forecast of 15 years was also initiated
using these data to provide a long-term insight into the benefits of these trading activities on the GDP of developing countries.

To make private investment more attractive, most African countries have liberalized market and attempted to create enabling environment in recent decades. Ethiopia,
like many African countries, took some steps towards liberalizing market and the macroeconomic regime as well as introducing some measures aimed at improving the
investment regulatory framework. This study analyses the determinants of private investment in Ethiopia using a time series analysis over the period of 1975 to 2009.
The study gave an extensive account of the theoretical explanation of private investment as well as reviewing the policy regimes, the investment regulatory framework
and institutional set up in the country over the study period. It also undertakes empirical analysis to establish the determining factors of private investment in Ethiopia.
Our findings show that growth rate of real GDP, availability of credit, and public investment among others, have positive impact on private investment. On the other hand,
macroeconomic instability (liberalization), lending rate, and consumer price index (CPI) have negative impact on private investment. The results suggest that policies that
address only some components of macroeconomic instability may not be enough to revive private investment. Thus, the findings imply that liberalization of the market and
regulatory regimes, stable macroeconomic and political environment, and major improvements in infrastructure are essential to attract private investors to Ethiopia

Fake news is not a new phenomenon. Fake news is “a form of propaganda that consists of deliberate misinformation or pranks spread through the traditional press, the media or online social media”. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a particularly important challenge, as it means the development of an appropriate computer system that will connect computing ability and physical reality. This makes it possible to convey concepts such as objective reality, conventional theories and language from a new perspective. This private experience and the consequences of this reconstruction sometimes has many disadvantages leading to alterations of information and to a new era, cyber era of reality, using fake news as a weapon to reduce the threat of free thinking and free will.

impact on society. In A. Carroll’s "Pyramid of Corporate Social Responsibility" a corporation has four types of responsibilities: The first and most obvious is the economic responsibility to be profitable. The second is the legal responsibility to obey the laws set forth by society. The third, which is very closely linked to the second, is the ethical responsibility. This is to do what is right even when business is not compelled to do so by law. The fourth is the philanthropic responsibility. This refers to contributions by the corporations toward social, educational, recreational and / or cultural purposes. According to ethical and moral principles in business affairs there are three categories of managers: a. The moral managers, who are dedicated to high standards of ethical behavior, both in their own actions and in their expectations of how the company’s business is to be conducted. b. The immoral managers, who are actively opposed to ethical behavior in business and will-fully ignore ethical principles in their decision making. c. The amoral managers, who appear in two forms: the intentionally amoral manager and the unintentionally amoral manager.

Fund managers should not rely on a single, standard pitch or marketing approach. ... A fund manager must be not only familiar with the vast landscape of potential investors, but also aware of the specific interests of different types of investor and how to appeal to these different interests through their marketing.

This paper provides information about the worker's productivity of Al Borg Cement Factory in Libya. It clearly outlines the productivity decrease that faces employees inside of workplace from the drop of performance. The article further argues that the deficiency in the perfect usage of technology, computer systems, communication networks (internet) and Lack of interest of the organization to prepare a training schedule. These factors are among other factors which effect on the productivity causing the employees to be less productive at their workplaces. Additionally, this has the negative effect on the economy. In addition, the decrease of individual productivity is evidenced via the outcome of the survey of individuals who shortage of interest of the management to prepare a time training schedule and system of computing to work at Al Borg Cement Factory within the country of Libya. Therefore, the paper recommends measures which should be taken to improve productivity by workers training on technology it can be that inside or outside in this organization, which could lead to improvement in the economic development of Al Borg plant and Libya in general.

In this study, we present evidence of the effects of corruption on public investment and revenue in Nigeria. We find that corruption distort the entire decision process associated with public investment. The evidence we presented shows that higher corruption increase higher public investment. We could not conclude on the effect corruption has on public revenue in Nigeria due to the insignificant of the coefficient of corruption in our model. In addition, we present evidence of efforts by Nigeria government to tackle corruption over the years. While we accept that achievement in this area had been made, we emphasize the need for more collaborative efforts by all stakeholders to effectively tackle corruption in Nigeria.

Purpose: This research seeks to present a theoretical model about the role of e-business in firm performancetaking into consideration the impact of the mediators “collaboration with customer and collaboration with competitors”.
Design: The study was conducted in manufacturing sectors in Jordan. The researcher used the exploratoryfactor analysis in the first phase of the analysis. A total of 66 questionnaires were distributed and considered for pilottesting. In the second phase, confirmatory factor analysis was conducted to validate the measurement scale. Theresearcher distributes 178 questionnaires and used to validate the measurement scale. Then the researcher usedstructural equation modelling to investigate the relationship between the dimensions, and to measure the impact ofe-business on firm performance, impact of supply chain collaboration on e-business and firm performance.
Finding: Based on final results of this research, e-business doesn’t have a significant impact on firm performance,the assumption of the mediating effect of collaboration with customers on e-business and firm performance wasrefused, in the other side it was accepted for collaboration with competitors mediate the relationship betweene-business and firm performance.
Practical Implication: The study presents suggestion and recommendation for managers in Jordanian’smanufacturing sectors that may be helpful to use e-business effectively to improve the organizational performanceby collaboration with customers and competitors. The researchers recommends that the future researches shouldinclude other types of collaboration such as retailers, suppliers, etc., also should include other sectors such asservices, other industries, telecommunications, etc.
Originality: The paper considered as the first in Jordanian e-business supply chain environment, whichwitnessing accelerated growth in investment in e-business and using of collaborative techniques to support the workof business partners across the supply chains. The study provided a valid and reliable measurement scale adaptedto the Jordanian environment and built a framework for effective collaboration within supply chain.

The successful implementation of local government debt replacement is of great significance and the solution to the problem of local government debt in China. However, local government debt replacement poses characteristics of fiscal risks financially. These risks will not only affect the implementation effect of local debt replacement, but will further influence the security and stability of our financial system. In this paper, based on the risk of local government debt replacement, evolutionary game theory is used as the analysis tool together with an evolutionary game model to build the local government debt management audit. The paper analyzes the evolution stability of the main strategies of both the local government and the commercial banks. Through a "scene-response" concept derived from the computational experiment method, the computational experiment method is used to simulate the initial probability of different strategies as a result of the evolutionary game model. It is found that improving the auditing mechanism and improving the effects of risk management can greatly shorten the time for government departments and commercial banks to change to the positive strategy of debt replacement. Finally, this paper puts forward the audit governance policy combination of debt exchange risk from three aspects: supervision responsibility, evaluation efficiency and information transparency.
