Systematically identification and building of digital capability in the Digital Age are of great significance to the obtainment of enterprises’ sustainable competitive advantages. This article first proposes typical application paradigms for the general framework of building digital capability of industrial enterprises in the Digital Age (FBDC) announced as international standard. Then data of over 4100 practical cases of building digital capabilities using FBDC by over 4000 Chinese industrial enterprises are collected. Based on the data, major directions, core implementations of digital capabilities building are systematically demonstrated through statistical analysis. Furthermore, we divide the investigated enterprises into different groups by sector, then organize in-depth research works to illustrate the major directions and typical practices of building digital capabilities in China's raw materials sector, equipment sector, and consumer goods sector. The results show that the major concerns of Chinese industrial enterprises building digital capabilities are centered on six aspects: R&D and innovation, production management and control, supply chain management, financial management and control, business management, and customer service. The results of sector-wise analysis also provide practical reference to industrial enterprises and other stakeholders to identify suitable digital capability based on information and communication technologies application in the Digital Age and efficiently implement the digital capability building process.

From the early 1990s to the present, the nonprofit sector in South Korea has grown exponentially in size and scope, resulting in increased calls for the development of nonprofit education programs to educate future leaders of the nonprofit sector in South Korea. This article reports on a study undertaking to determine the scope and dimensions of the nonprofit and non-governmental organization (NPO/NGO) education in South Korea, identifying university-based nonprofit education programs in South Korea and analyze curricular content employing Wish and Mirabella’s seven-category model for evaluating curricular content in nonprofit programs. At present, South Korea offers 23 NPO/NGO degree programs at 16 universities with a combined total of 634 courses being offered as part of these degree programs. In addition, there are 45 universities offering three or more NPO/NGO related courses outside of the identified 23 NPO/NGO degree programs among the top 50 South Korean Universities, including the aforementioned 16 universities. Our findings show that South Korean NPO/NGO degree programs are more focused on advocacy and public policy related topics than on other categories of curriculum content, and with very little focus on financial management related topics in particular. The paper concludes with a discussion of the unique structure of NPO/NGO degree programs compared with programs in the United States, highlighting the proportional difference between the internal and external functions.

Cash(liquidity) management is at the heart of a firm’s financial management. It is a silver lining between the bankruptcy and the success story of a company. Therefore, this study intends to contribute some insights into cash management practices and how firms can use them to achieve sound financial performance. This study provides a comprehensive literature review on existing theories and cash management practices that are useful in decision making. After the analysis of the available literature, the study highlights important theories including trade-off theory (TOT), transaction model, precautionary measures, financial hierarchy, and cash flow theory. Furthermore, management practices such as stochastic cash management model, speeding up cash collections, centralization & decentralization of management, asset portfolio diversification, and cash disbursement are discussed. The study suggests that a sound financial performance can be achieved through a hybrid approach and through adaptation and embracing innovations in cash management systems.

Problem setting. One of the cross-cutting lines of the current stage of public administration reform is the creation of a professional, efficient, effective, transparent and flexible system of executive authorities, which will be a prerequisite for the development of good governance in Ukraine. To do this, it is important to make the institutional capacity building (ICB) of such organizations. Institutional capacity is the ability of executive authorities to effectively achieve its goals, to maintain sustainable operation in the long run, to make high-quality public administration decisions with the broad involvement of beneficiaries and stakeholders.Recent research and publications analysis. Some aspects of the institutional capacity of public institutions have been the subject of domestic research by L. Kulish, O. Naumov, S. Brekhov, L. Naumova, O. Chemerys, M. Voinovskyi, N. Kolisnychenko, O. Ros, H. Shchedrova, K. Petrenko.Highlighting previously unsettled parts of the general problem. Despite a significant number of publications, the issue of the institutional capacity of the executive authorities still remains poorly explored in the science of public administration. Institutional capacity building instruments, one of which is an institutional audit, in particular, need to be further studied. The usage of institutional audit not only strengthens the institutional capacity of the executive authorities, but also forms the basis for the implementation of good governance approaches in the system of public administration. That is why the selected area of research is extremely important in modern conditions of public administration reform in Ukraine.Paper main body. The concept of audit at the present stage is no longer limited to financial control. The general audit methodology, which includes external assessment or self-assessment in accordance with established standards, establishing a certain current state of affairs, identifying opportunities for development and making recommendations, allows it to be adapted to all procedures, processes, operations and systems of any organization. But the purpose of the audit remains the same – to make sure that the functioning of the institution is carried out within a certain budget, goals, requirements or rules.The need to separate institutional audit from audit in public sector is due to current trends of the institutional capacity building of public institutions.To assist the executive authorities in the institutional capacity building, we use the institutional audit mechanism, by which we mean the instrument of public monitoring and control of institutional capacity of public institutions as the ability of these organizations to effectively achieve its mission and maintain long-term sustainability and quality of public services as a result of public administration functions performed by public institutions. And although the institutional audit is essentially part of the public administration function of monitoring and control, it is focused not on identifying violations and further application of sanctions to responsible persons, but on finding potential for institutional development of executive authorities, effective and efficient performance of its functions.The institutional capacity building of executive authorities involves increasing its capacity for sustainable, consistent and reliable implementation of goals and objectives. In practice, it means improving the organization’s management system, including decision-making, financial management, human resource management processes, establishing effective internal and external communication, and so on.An important component of institutional audit is the actual assessment of institutional capacity, which aims to outline the organizational and behavioral aspects of the system that contribute to its efficiency. Through evaluation, the executive authorities receive a diagnosis of the internal environment, processes and goals, as well as a better understanding of the role of all stakeholders. The results of the assessment are the answer to the question “What are the shortcomings in the planning, implementation and effectiveness of a particular executive authorities?”. And every shortcoming identified today is a potential opportunity for development tomorrow.The efficiency of the institutional capacity assessment process and institutional audit in general depends on many factors, which can be divided into internal and external. Internal factors, as a rule, relate to the transparency of the executive authority, in particular the interest and willingness of its management to communicate with auditors, the presence of the request of the institution itself to undergo an institutional audit. Instead, external factors in the efficiency of institutional audit are more concerned with involving stakeholders in this process. Moreover, researchers and experts consider the involvement of stakeholders not only as subjects of the audit process, but also as drivers for the implementation of measures to increase the institutional capacity of the executive authority.In this context, we consider it appropriate to involve the public in the face of non-government organizations (NGOs) as independent institutional auditors. In particular, these may be organizations or coalitions of organizations operating in a field similar to a public institution. For example, NGOs working with people with disabilities could conduct institutional audits for social policy departments of local government administrations.The process of the institutional capacity building of executive authorities doesn’t give immediate results, because it is accompanied by changes within the organization, which always, despite the positive or negative, cause resistance from personnel. Add to this the over-bureaucratized structures and processes of public administration decision-making, the prevalence of political expediency over economy, efficiency and effectiveness, and the lack of a strategy, but also a clearly defined mission, in most executive authorities, we will be given an incredibly difficult task for an institutional audit. However, without overcoming these obstacles and ensuring sustainable institutional development of public institutions, it is impossible to form an effective system of public administration or build a democratic, social and legal state.Conclusions of the research and prospects for further studies. The institutional capacity building of the executive authorities is an important step towards implementing the concept of good governance in Ukraine and bringing public institutions to a qualitatively new level of functioning. Harmonization of such key components of a public institution as mission and vision, management system, corporate culture, organizational structure, communication within the organization and with the external environment, staff training and motivation system, work practices and procedures, will allow executive authorities to implement its tasks and achieve the objectives. And the continuous connection with the beneficiaries and stakeholders present in the institutional audit will increase the transparency and parity of the government’s interaction with the public, which is the key to the democratization of public relations in the state.However, in the domestic realities, institutional audit does not have sufficient methodological and regulatory support, and what is available is scattered between different laws, regulations and even types of audit. Systematization of legal bases of institutional audit and strengthening of methodological basis of its carrying out is a key direction of further scientific studies.

Nowadays, the hotel management concept cannot keep pace with the times. Traditional concepts are often adopted to manage hotel financial personnel, for the hotel financial personnel cannot take timely and effective training. All these lead to the hotel financial staff designing the hotel’s related business without sufficient understanding of the hotel industry and judging and deciding if they do not master the hotel’s professional knowledge, which makes the participating projects unable to give correct and reasonable answers to the substantive problems of the hotel. This leads to the hotel management not going up; extensive management makes the hotel benefit not go up. Hotel intelligent technology can solve these problems and not only save manpower and material resources but also intelligently predict the financial crisis of hotels. In the context of the accelerated development of globalization and informatization, there are still many problems in the financial management process of my country’s hotel industry. Based on these questions, the article draws on foreign advanced experience, puts forward effective suggestions in financial management, and uses computational intelligence technology to design a centralized and intelligent financial management system. The research results show the following: (1) the financial crisis model is created by using the principle of support vector machine and logistic regression method, which greatly reduces the financial crisis of the enterprise. (2) The system can straightforwardly summarize the data for easy query. Taking three domestic hotels as an example, a comprehensive study has been carried out on the three aspects of pricing assessment risk, financial integration risk, and debt risk. In 2016, the financial leverage coefficient has been relatively high, the quick ratio has fluctuated greatly, and the interest protection coefficient has shown a downward trend. (3) The performance of the system is compared with traditional development mode, framework development mode, and intelligent optimization mode. The intelligent optimization system has the lowest response time and the highest success rate. The new system has reduced response time by about 57% compared with the original response time, and the access success rate has been greatly improved.

In this study, a value-based children's financial education program was developed focusing on the values of each financial management area needed for children. According to 'quasi-experimental design - nonequivalent control group design', an experimental group and a control group were formed for children in the lower grades of elementary school, and a value-based child financial education program was executed, and then the program was applied to children's personal financial management. The effect on the value propensity for each area was evaluated.

PurposeThe purpose of the study is to examine the following two research objectives. The first was to examine the predictive relationships that consumer characteristics of financial literacy, thinking styles and self-control have with a consumer's financial behaviors. The second goal was to ascertain financial management products' ability to aid those consumers who need it the most by weakening the predictive effects of consumer traits on financial behaviors.Design/methodology/approachThe study employed a web-based survey to gather information. The measurement and structural models were analyzed using generalized structured component analysis (GSCA), a component-based structural equation model. The mediation effect of self-control is assessed using the GSCA. The conditional mediation of demographic variables and use of personal financial management products are evaluated using multi-group analysis (MGA) in GSCA.FindingsAntecedents, financial literacy, thinking styles and self-control consumer characteristics are predictors of financial behaviors. However, self-control plays a more prominent role as a mediator between the other variables, strengthening the overall relationship. Also, financial products can have a beneficial moderation effect assisting those consumers who need them the most.Practical implicationsThese insights help in creating target specific financial literacy strategies to influence consumers' financial behaviors. Also, there is a need to develop mechanisms to influence a consumer's self-control and thinking styles to improve financial behavior. In conjunction with other initiatives, the impact of financial literacy has a greater effect on financial behaviors. Further, the insights assist financial institutions and financial technology firms in offering and creating products to help customers make better financial decisions and improve their financial behaviors.Social implicationsThe research addressed a significant global issue – consumer financial health. The Great Recession and the COVID-19 recession highlight the need to focus on the consumer and efforts to improve their financial health.Originality/valueThis research highlighted the mediating role of self-control and suggested that existing and future financial products can positively influence consumer behavior drivers.

Background Unhelmeted motorcyclists injured in states with lax or poorly enforced helmet safety laws are frequently seen in rural trauma centers. A trauma surgeon started a comprehensive injury prevention and research fund with outreach to a three-state trauma center catchment area promoting injury prevention at area high schools and local communities. We hypothesized that unhelmeted riders would have more severe head injuries and fatalities than helmeted riders. Methods A trauma registry review of 708 injured motorcycle riders over an 11-year period examined demographics, helmet use, and clinical outcomes of helmeted and unhelmeted riders. A full-time injury prevention coordinator collaborating with law enforcement provided electronic and mechanical simulations with discussions regarding helmet use, alcohol avoidance, and responsible motorcycle riding for area high school students. This program coincided with the second half of our 11-year study. Multiple regression analysis evaluated predictors for head injury and death. Results Unhelmeted motorcyclists suffered worse head injuries, (OR 8.8, CI 1.6-2.4, P < .001), more severe overall injury (OR 10, CI 12.7-18.6, P < .001), and higher mortality (OR 2.7, CI .02-.15, P < .001). Local motorcycle-related trauma center admissions and deaths have stabilized in recent years while statewide motorcycle crashes have increased ( P < .05). Discussion Unhelmeted motorcyclists suffer worse head injuries and mortality rates. Physician-led outreach efforts for injury prevention may be effective. Trauma surgeons have ongoing opportunities to promote responsible motorcycle riding for schools and local communities.

Nations create Sovereign Wealth Funds to accumulate, save and invest excess liquidity that arise from natural resources and other excess funds in infrastructural developments and in achieving other policy objectives. The paper thus investigated sovereign wealth fund as an effective tool for public financial management and economic sustainability with a particular focus on Nigeria. The exploratory and descriptive research design approach was adopted in evaluating the sovereign fund model as an alternative to public resources management. The paper reveals that sovereign wealth funds can be helpful to a nation especially in the time of economic crisis as it could be used to minimize government revenues volatility rate as well as to build up the level of savings for future generation ( r = 0.689 and 0.763 for volatility rate and saving for future generation respectively and p-values < 0.05). However, it is discovered that to produce the intended results, the fund must form part of the home country policy document and must be prudently invested. Based on these findings, it is recommended that regulatory body must strengthen the accountability framework around the fund. To this end, there should be fiscal discipline, probity and transparency in the investment, management and reporting of the fund. Nigeria is thus encouraged to sign up and uphold the Santiago principles and guidelines proposed in 2008 for the promotion of global best practices in National Sovereign Wealth Funds operations and management.

One of the components of a highly effective management system is operational controlling at the enterprise. At the same time, the most important indicator characterising the efficiency of the functioning of the enterprise and, accordingly, subject to controlling is its solvency, which affects the level of competitiveness of the enterprise and the efficiency of its adaptation to the changing conditions of the market environment. In this regard, the purpose of the research is to modernize the procedure of financial controlling based on the development of an integral model for determining and analysing the transformational solvency index. The article forms a universal model of financial condition assessment, in which all threshold values of the coefficients, calculated according to existing methods of financial stability assessment, are reduced to one scale and the accumulated impact of indicator values for previous periods of economic activity is taken into account.On the basis of the correlation analysis, the nature and strength of the dependence of the transformational solvency index on the factors influencing its formation and causing tendentious trends in the dynamics of its change during a certain period are determined.

The First Nations Fiscal Management Act (FMA) delegates the power to levy property taxes to band councils. The purpose of this article is to describe and analyze the effectiveness of the legislation as a self-government tool. Section 5(1) of the FMA allows band councils to levy property taxes both to increase their economic capacity—providing them with a source of income—and to improve self-government. However, this grant of power is subject to numerous conditions. These include compliance with the financial management requirements set out in the act, as well as approval of property tax laws by the First Nations Tax Commission (FNTC) (the majority of the members of which are appointed by the federal government). Also, the taxes imposed must comply with regulations set by the governor in council, which currently cover the property assessment process (including an appeal process), interest and penalties, and inspection of property. There have been two attempts by property taxpayers to overturn the decisions of the FNTC by way of judicial review. The fact that both were unsuccessful has somewhat mitigated criticism of the constraints on First Nation self-government imposed by the FMA. Overall, the federal government maintains significant control over the law-making process by which First Nations levy property taxes, both directly through regulations and indirectly through its dominant presence on the FNTC. Reform is needed: real powers need to be delegated to meet the stated objective of creating meaningful self-government for participating First Nations. The power to impose property taxes was first delegated to band councils by the Indian Act in 1951. Therefore, it is high time that First Nations be granted the right to exercise that power without federal intervention. Constitutional protection of the right to self-government must be the ultimate goal.

Demand risks are critical for the involvement of private sector participants in High-Speed Rail (HSR) operations. This study examines specific cases of the organizational characteristics of HSR operators that have successfully managed demand risks. By examining the successful operational performance of vertically integrated private HSR operators in Japan and Taiwan, and the influence of government regulations in enabling such successes, the study aims to provide a discussion on the appropriate balance between the risk and control sharing by public authorities and private HSR operators. In our analysis, continuous improvement in the quality of services is identified as a rational strategy for sustaining passenger business. Crucial factors have been identified by examining the application of a continuous improvement strategy in a delay-management system utilized by one of the private HSR operators in Japan. Our study highlights the importance of actions such as integrated operations and maintenance management towards continuous service improvement. Moreover, the effectiveness of these actions is identified to be enabled by management factors such as financial management. The discussion reveals how government regulations can influence the corporate governance of a private HSR operator and potentially restrict the efficiency of service improvement strategies. The importance of institutional factors reemphasizes the need to learn from the experiences of existing HSR projects and to find applications for developing countries expecting a similar HSR operating environment. The findings suggest that the independent corporate-governance for private HSR operators should be considered thoroughly by public actors that contemplate any risk-sharing arrangement with the private sector.

Background Biomedical research plays an important role in improving health. There seems to exist a negative correlation between the amount of biomedical research funding and disease burden from all Sub-Saharan African countries. In this study, we describe funding patterns for biomedical research, explore the correlation between funding and burden of diseases, and quantify inequalities in funds distribution across diseases in Gabon over the period 2005–2015. Methods Data on medical research funds from 2005 to 2015 were retrieved through a structured questionnaire distributed to Gabonese biomedical research institutions and by consulting online databases. Data on the burden of diseases were gathered from the World Health Organization and the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation. We used Kendall rank correlation coefficient to explore the correlation between cumulative funds over time and the burden of disease. The inequality distribution of funding across diseases was assessed through Gini coefficient and Lorenz curve. Results Biomedical research funding was characterized by a remarkable growth from 2005 to 2010 and a decline from 2010 to 2014. Funds were mostly from external sources and from partnerships. There was inequality in research funds allocation across diseases and malaria was far the most funded disease. There was a significant negative correlation between cumulative funding and the burden of HIV, tuberculosis, and of Helminthiasis (from 2006 to 2010) suggesting that research may be contributing to the management of such diseases. A positive, although not significant, correlation was found between cumulative funds and malaria burden. Conclusions The negative correlation between HIV and tuberculosis cumulative funding and burden suggests that research may be contributing to the management of such diseases but further research is needed to assess the causal direction of such as relationship. As the burden of non-communicable diseases is increasing, more research funds should be focused on those. While research partnerships have been and will remain fundamental, Gabon should increase the amount of national funds to overcome periods of reduced research funding flows from abroad.

Background Hospitals are closing after poor financial performance leaving many patients without access to medical care. Identifying the factors associated with financial distress offers hospitals avenues for potential intervention to avoid bankruptcy and closure. Materials and Methods We performed a retrospective analysis of private U.S. hospitals’ financial information from 2011 to 2018. A mixed effects logistic regression model was used with the primary outcome of hospital financial distress (based on the Altman Z-score). Results Our sample included 2,720 private hospitals contributing a total of 20,022 hospital-year observations. The proportion of hospitals experiencing financial distress each year ranged from 22.0% to 24.3%. For-profit status was associated with an increased odds of financial distress (adjusted odds ratio (aOR), 4.36 [95% Confidence Interval (CI) 3.05 - 6.24]) as compared to non-profit status. A higher share of hospital revenue from Medicaid was also associated with increased odds of financial distress (aOR for the highest quartile, 2.28 [95% CI 1.73 - 3.00]) as compared to the lowest quartile. A higher case mix index (aOR for the highest quartile, 0.32 [95% CI 0.23 - 0.46]) and an increased share of hospital revenue from outpatient services (aOR for the highest quartile, 0.34 [95% CI 0.23 - 0.49]) were associated with decreased odds of financial distress as compared to their respective lowest quartiles. Conclusions A significant proportion of private U.S. hospitals experience financial distress. Increasing case complexity and the proportion of patient revenue from outpatient services may represent avenues to avoid financial distress.

Purpose This paper presents a review of research methodologies used in addressing problems in the financial management of property and construction journals from 2005 to 2020. Design/methodology/approach Content analysis of 258 research papers published in the Journal of Financial Management of Property and Construction was carried out, enabling the exploration of research approaches, epistemology, strategies, data collection and data analysis methods used in addressing problems researched in the area of financial management of property and construction Findings The findings show that quantitative approaches and methods dominate, whereas qualitative and mixed methods were prominent in-depth understanding of a topics were needed. Interestingly, almost a third of the publications did not adopt quantitative approaches. In some journal issues, there was relatively high use of qualitative and multi-method approaches and up to 12% of the articles published over the past 16 years could be described as based on pragmatism. Research limitations/implications An important implication of this paper is that a conventionally number-based area of research does not preclude the use of qualitative and mixed approaches. The findings are only generalisable to the Journal of Financial Management of Property and Construction. Practical implications Financial management researchers could benefit greatly by considering pluralistic approaches more in the design of their studies. Originality/value To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this study is an original synthesis of the articles published between 2005 and 2020. It provides new insight into the use of research methodologies by authors and how they have been combined to address their research problems. It further investigates an old issue or question about methodological choice-making using new evidence and original empirical work.

Poverty is a condition in which people and communities lack the resources and basic elements necessary for a minimum standard of living. Poverty means that the level of income from employment is too low to meet basic human needs. Poor individuals or families are likely not to have sufficient housing, clean water, healthy diet, and health care. This paper examines the concept of poverty from the perspective of local actors. The study made use of a qualitative approach to data gathering and analysis. The data discussion revealed that participants interpreted poverty to mean lack of money to meet basic human needs such as food, shelter, clothing, transportation, etc. It was also understood as one’s inability to meet desired goals. Among other interpretations, death was seen as the highest form of poverty. Lack of formal education and employment opportunities, the unwillingness of some local actors to work, the disadvantaged position of women, and early childbirth were seen as the main causes of poverty. In dealing with poverty, participants suggested the creation of employment opportunities by the government of Ghana and other private agencies. Acquiring formal education and practicing good financial management were also seen as key to alleviating poverty. The study concludes that poverty is collective among the indigenes, hence has huge social connotations, covertly and overtly.
