Recent Privatizations In Pakistan And Their Impact, Ishrat Husain Dr. Jul 2009

Recent Privatizations In Pakistan And Their Impact, Ishrat Husain Dr.

Faculty Research - Talks, Speeches, & Discourse

The decade of 1970s in Pakistan witnessed a massive redistribution of national assets from the private owners to the state. The reason underlying the then Government’s thinking for this extremely radical action was that the national wealth was being concentrated in the hands of few families and the rich were getting richer and the poor getting poorer. It was asserted by the proponents of this strategy that the state control over allocation of the resources would promote the best interests of the poor. The intellectual support for this strategy was drawn from the success of the Soviet Union and the …


Technology And Poverty Reduction In South Asia, Ishrat Husain Dr. Jul 2009

Technology And Poverty Reduction In South Asia, Ishrat Husain Dr.

Faculty Research - Talks, Speeches, & Discourse

The 2008 Human Development Report (HDR) makes a drastic but a significant departure from the previous analysis in the past reports by examining the relationship between Technology and Poverty reduction. The two channels through which Technology can affect poverty reduction are indirect, i.e. by accelerating growth impulses via productivity gains and direct, i.e. by using technology in better health care, education, water supply, agriculture and good governance. As much has been written about the technology-growth channel the Report rightly focuses on the direct channel. Within South Asia, it must be conceded that India is an exception as it has become …


Are Credit Unions In Ecuador Achieving Economies Of Scale?, Nick A. Marchio Jul 2009

Are Credit Unions In Ecuador Achieving Economies Of Scale?, Nick A. Marchio

Economics Honors Projects

This study tests the assertion that membership growth in credit unions is constrained by their unique structural features, such as their non-profit mission and member-based ownership. Although these features enhance inclusiveness, existing theory suggest that they work against efficiency when membership grows too diffuse. To address this issue, this study uses a model that takes into account existing theory on constrained-optimization in credit unions and theory on the adverse effects of diffuse ownership. Using data on 36 public credit unions in Ecuador, the empirical analysis finds evidence that credit unions can achieve economies of scale despite their problematic structural features. …


The Impact Of Selected Corporate Governance Variables In Mitigating Earnings Management In The Philippines, Mc Reynald S. Banderlipe Ii Jul 2009

The Impact Of Selected Corporate Governance Variables In Mitigating Earnings Management In The Philippines, Mc Reynald S. Banderlipe Ii

DLSU Business & Economics Review

Given the increasing importance of corporate governance in the Philippines, this study attempts to explain the role of selected governance variables related to a company’s board of directors in mitigating earnings management in the country. Using the financial statements of publicly listed companies and a modified measurement model, the findings revealed that the holding of multiple directorial positions by the independent directors, and the managerial ownership of the board are significant enough to limit the incentives for earnings management. Moreover, firm size and return on assets were identified to have explanatory significance among the controlling factors.


Towards An Innovation Model In Teaching Management, Ernesto L. Bumatay Jul 2009

Towards An Innovation Model In Teaching Management, Ernesto L. Bumatay

DLSU Business & Economics Review

This study discusses an innovation to management teaching called Learning-Activity-Based Experience Model (LAB-E Model). The perspective is that the entire learning process in a course will be experienced through sets of activities designed by the faculty. These sets or clusters of problems and activities are unique to the contents and objectives of the course as well as to the varying needs and capabilities of the students. Through management activities created and designed by the faculty, learning takes place. This innovative teaching model incorporates other common teaching methodologies which include small group presentation, facilitated discussion of cases, and lecture-discussion approach.


Input-Ouput Analysis Of The Key Sectors In Philippine Carbon Dioxide Emissions From A Production Perspective, Rachel C. Reyes Jul 2009

Input-Ouput Analysis Of The Key Sectors In Philippine Carbon Dioxide Emissions From A Production Perspective, Rachel C. Reyes

DLSU Business & Economics Review

The study computes the carbon dioxide emissions of the Philippines for the period of 2000 to 2006 and applies a production perspective input-output analysis to identify the key sectors whose value-added growth were responsible for the increase in emissions of the country and those that exhibited increased sectoral emissions from overall income growth. Power generation turned out to be the primary sector while cement manufacture, wholesale/retail trade, mining, road and water transport, and private services were revealed as the secondary sectors, jointly accounting for 0.66% increase in the country’s emissions from a 1% growth in their valueadded and experiencing 0.75% …


Perceived Organizational Effectiveness Of Labor Unions In The Banking, Hotel, And Manufacturing Industries, Divina M. Edralin Jul 2009

Perceived Organizational Effectiveness Of Labor Unions In The Banking, Hotel, And Manufacturing Industries, Divina M. Edralin

DLSU Business & Economics Review

To determine the extent of influence of the organization’s context and structure factors on the perceived effectiveness of labor unions in the banking, hotel, and manufacturing industries in the National Capital Region, 88 local unions consisting of 772 rank-and-file and supervisory union members from 82 firms were covered. It is evident from the results that the level of union effectiveness as perceived by the members is a function of two major organizational factors, namely, context and structure. Moreover, there are significant differences in the average level of effectiveness rating of unions per industry.


Law Making In The Guise Of Procedures: Placing Hurdles To The Right Of Appeal To The National Labor Relations Commission, Emmanuel O. Sales Jul 2009

Law Making In The Guise Of Procedures: Placing Hurdles To The Right Of Appeal To The National Labor Relations Commission, Emmanuel O. Sales

DLSU Business & Economics Review

It is a legal given that the power to make laws or new norms lies with Congress and this power, granted by the Constitution, cannot be shared with or should not be encroached upon by another branch of government or an instrumentality of a branch. Rule making to implement the law or the promulgation of procedures to establish the process of enforcing rights is not always done subordinate to or in accordance with law. This study posits that the 2005 Rules of Procedure of the National Labor Relations Commission, specifically on the requirements for taking an appeal, is a case …


Innovation Process And Performance In Small- To Medium-Sized Firms: A Conceptual Framework, Edgardo S. Bolinao Jul 2009

Innovation Process And Performance In Small- To Medium-Sized Firms: A Conceptual Framework, Edgardo S. Bolinao

DLSU Business & Economics Review

This study maps out the innovation process in Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) that can fundamentally affect business performance. The development of the conceptual framework can be used to encourage and enhance successful innovation management for SMEs. Overall, effective innovation is based on managing this process as a whole and on building up capacity and competency at each stage in the innovation. The framework put forth in this study is being proposed to be used as template for the development of a management development program for SMEs’ owner-managers and as a practical tool for diagnosing SMEs’ support systems.
