Influence of Ownership Structure on the Innovation Activity of South Asian Companies at Different Life Cycle Stages

Subject. The article addresses the efficiency and sustainability of public, private, and foreign-owned enterprises. Objectives. The aim is to develop and test a methodology for analyzing the said enterprises. Methods. The study rests on general scientific principles and research methods, like abstraction, generalization of approaches to the analysis of enterprises of different forms of business ownership. Results. I developed a methodology, which includes three stages. First, estimating the share of enterprises of different forms of ownership in total assets, revenue, and profit, and analyzing the sectoral and regional sample structure and enterprise size. Second, assessing the short-term and long-term efficiency, with analysis of profitability indicators, long-term dynamics, and investment activity. Finally, analyzing the adaptability of enterprises of different forms of ownership to changed conditions, and evaluating the indicators of financial stability, riskness, and dynamics for 2022. Conclusions. I tested the methodology on data from large Russian consolidated businesses (a total of 593 enterprises for 2018–2022). The calculations and analysis showed that private business prevails in assets, revenue, and net profit. For State-owned enterprises, the most significant industry is oil and gas production, for foreign-owned ones – production and distribution of electricity, gas and water, for private enterprises – retail trade. Higher profitability is typical for foreign and private enterprises. The analysis of adaptability to current conditions showed that revenue growth rate in 2022 did not decrease vs. the annual average for all groups of enterprises, however, profit and profitability indicators deteriorated. In general, large consolidated public, private, and foreign-owned business demonstrated a relatively high degree of stability in 2022 with a decrease in profit and profitability, and now it continues investment activity.

Debates over the effects and efficacy of different forms of newspaper ownership are rising. This article elucidates the debates by exploring private, public, not-for-profit, and employee ownership using economic and managerial theory about ownership and control of enterprises. It shows the managerial and economic conditions that emerge under the different forms of ownership, their implications, and the advantages and disadvantages of each. The article concludes that there is no perfect form of newspaper ownership.

Large domestic agricultural organizations and enterprises of the processing industry (as a rule holdings) of different forms of ownership and with different types (directions) of their activities are quite complex organizational systems, with the same complex system of their management. In improving the efficiency of agricultural and processing industry enterprises, the issues of informatization of management processes, the use of information systems and technologies in the management of large agricultural enterprises and agricultural holdings and other corporate structures are particularly relevant and important today. The tasks of forming new methodological approaches and directions in the optimal selection, implementation and maximum effective use of different information technologies and systems in the agricultural sector are relevant. The main and frequently used concepts in the fi eld of automation of functions and management tasks in the agroindustrial complex have been defined in the article. The results of a quantitative analysis of implemented projects for the implementation of IT systems, software products and integrated IT services at agricultural enterprises in Russia have been presented in the article. The groups (by type of technology and system classes) of the most common IT systems used in the management of agricultural enterprises in the territory of the Russian Federation have been identified. The possible prospects and advantages of the introduction of technologies and specialized information management systems as modern effective tools for improving the efficiency of activities and the existing management system at the enterprises of the agro-industrial complex of the Republic of Belarus have been discussed.

The article considers the theoretical and applied aspects of the problem of decision-making in a system with a hierarchical structure under uncertainty inherent in the agro-industrial complex, due to the presence of changeable weather conditions and the freedom to make economic decisions in market conditions. It is noted that to date, market mechanisms have been implemented in the agro-industrial complex, and the role of decision makers is minimal, and this determines the feasibility of applying a decentralized scheme of the control model, which is discussed in detail in the domestic theory of hierarchical games. It is taken into account that enterprises of different forms of ownership can act in different roles, unequal relations can arise: someone shows dictates and gets the right of the first move. In these productions, along with enterprises of different forms of ownership, the participation of the coordinator of the Center, which regulates public relations arising between state authorities and subjects of the industrial sector of the economy, should be considered. Economic stimulus and regulatory measures (mandatory regulations and prohibitions) can be used as instruments of government influence on productive entities. To assess the activities of the participants, the principle of the maximal guaranteed result is used. A general scheme for obtaining correlations for the Center criterion in cases of centralization and decentralization, their comparison and a detailed conclusion for the linear case under the selected organizational conditions are presented.

This paper describes different forms of ownership across countries and how these forms influence the way companies are governed. In most stock markets in the world, listed companies frequently have a controlling shareholder, usually a family. However, Japan, the UK, and to a lesser extent the US, are exceptions. In these three countries, ownership is frequently highly fragmented, where share stakes are held by different institutional owners, including asset managers, both active and passive, and by shareholder activists. The paper focuses in particular on the governance structure of different institutional shareholders, how they engage with target firms, and their effectiveness. The paper concludes with recommendations for regulators to enhance different forms of ownership.

The current conditions for the functioning of enterprises-manufacturers of local treatment facilities made of fiberglass and composite materials have been given, a significant impact on the performance of which is carried out, first of all, by the development of scientific and technical progress and changes in the requirements of consumers of such types of products. The current state of research of approaches to the formation of the customer journey of users of various products and services with the help of modern marketing tools presented in special and scientific literature has been analyzed, the results of which indicate that attention has been paid to these issues and problems. At the same time, regarding the methodological approaches to the formation of the Customer Journey Map, it is advisable to note that such issues are described rather thesis in the recommendations of practitioners-marketers, which, in turn, emphasizes the importance of creating a scientifically grounded basis for application in the practical activities of business entities of different forms of ownership in modern conditions of the Ukrainian market functioning. The essence of the Customer Journey Map marketing technology has been analyzed. The sequence of the Customer Journey Map formation has been generalized. Modern tools for creating a Customer Journey Map have been characterized. The AIDA marketing formula has been proposed to use when a Customer Journey Map building is doing. It has been proposed to supplement the AIDA marketing formula with a loyalty support component. The necessity of using User Scenario and User Story during the construction of the Customer Journey Map has been substantiated. The main groups of consumers of the product “local treatment facilities made of fiberglass and composite materials” have been identified (specific private households; developers; designers; construction organizations; investors; business entities of different forms of ownership and different scales of activity). The User Scenario, User Story and Customer Journey Map have been formed for a specific group of local treatment facilities users “specific private households”.

Institutional Ownership and Governance

This paper deals with the role that institutional differences play in managerial risk‐taking when firms engage in international acquisitions. It is assumed that multinational corporations (MNCs) have different interests and capabilities when dealing with international acquisition, which in the authors’ view are significantly shaped by specific home country institutional influences. This study concerns the question of how different forms of ownership – concentrated (e.g. family and bank based) and dispersed (stock market based) – influence risk‐taking and managerial decision‐making in large international acquisitions. Comparing a total of 12 large acquisitions of four leadingMNCsin the global brewery industry, the paper shows that mutually reinforcing influences of country of origin (coordinated vs liberal market economies) and ownership (family ownership vs stock market ownership) lead to different risk profiles and managerial risk‐taking with regard to international acquisitions.

An increase the efficiency of agricultural production is the most important economic issue at the present stage. However, according to the authors’ opinion, the sharpness of the problem for a long time is underestimated and continues to be underestimated in the agrarian policy of the country. The consequences of such attitude to the problems of agricultural development particularly had a negative impact on the results of the agricultural producers in 1991-1998 years, when investment in agriculture was sharply reduced, the production potential of the sector has been undermined. The agricultural production fell by 50%, compared to the pre-reform period, 88% of agricultural organizations were unprofitable. During 1999 - 2013 years, the government of the country, scientists carried out considerable work to ensure the effective development of agriculture. But, nevertheless, in 2013, the level of agricultural production was by 10.3% lower, than in the pre-reform 1990 year, the financials continue to worsen. According to the authors, so that to ensure the conditions for agricultural producers for effective functioning, expanded reproduction, it requires substantially to increase the level of state support to agriculture, to improve the economic mechanism of management, to develop management forms manifolds, under which we mean a rational, mutually reinforcing combination of different forms of management, based on different forms of ownership, ensuring the efficient use of available natural, labour, material and financial resources. In the paper the author’s definition of management forms is given. The development of forms of management and ownership in the agricultural sector should be seen as a continuous process. The composition and structure of the management forms in the agrarian sector will be updated with the development of market relations, economic conditions change.

This study investigates how and the extent to which different forms of ownership (foreign, managerial, diluted, concentrated and institutional) influences carbon emission disclosure quality as shown in the levels of the voluntary carbon emission related disclosures in the stand-alone sustainability report of the listed oil and gas companies in Nigeria. Hence, we complement the three leading streams of research on the determinants of carbon emission disclosure quality. We analyzed the research objective using data from the 22 listed oil and gas companies in Nigeria since they are the dominant greenhouse gas emitters globally and show higher commitment to pursuing companies and industrial actions in communicating environmental related information with the external stakeholders, that may reflect attitudinal changes and product sensitive innovations to reducing emission of carbon, carbon management, and targets. Using an ordered logistic regression analysis, we found several important results. First, the findings revealed that firms with greater proportion of foreign ownership exhibit higher carbon emissions disclosure quality, which suggest that the type of ownership correspond with firm’s proactiveness and commitment to environmental practices in the selected companies. Second, institutional ownership in negatively correlated with carbon emission disclosure quality, providing an implication that when institutions invest heavily in a company, they favor weak carbon related disclosure because it enables them to exploit minority shareholders. Third, we observed a negative correlation between ownership concentration and carbon emission disclosure, which indicates that controlling shareholders in form of institutional ownership may be prone to monopolizing carbon emission information to maintain superiority in monitoring and decision-making process.

The principle of diversity of land ownership forms should be linked to the principles of equivalent exchange, economic efficiency and social justice. In the work, with the help of analysis, synthesis and provisions presented in scientific papers, the theoretical aspects of the influence of land ownership forms on land use in agriculture are revealed. The study shows that the use of agricultural land under different forms of ownership gives the following results: private land ownership in the agricultural sector promotes interest in efficient agriculture, rational use of land; private group form of land ownership promotes economic efficiency, preservation of soil fertility and social efficiency through the distribution of land rent in society; state and municipal ownership of agricultural land can contribute to economic efficiency and promotes social efficiency. The authors see in the future the development of a variety of land ownership forms in agriculture of the Russian Federation, while there will be a tendency to increase the area of agricultural land owned by the municipality, legal entities and a reduction in the area of agricultural land owned by the state and citizens.

A strategic analysis of dual-channel supply chain design with price and delivery lead time considerations

Problem setting. There is a fairly extensive network of museums in Ukraine. These cultural institutions have different forms of ownership and subordination: public, communal, private. Study, preservation and popularization of the historical and cultural heritage of Ukraine; development of cultural, educational and research museum activities related to the acquisition of museum collections, exhibition, fund, publishing, restoration, monument protection work, aesthetic, intellectual, civic, national and patriotic education; the solution of problematic issues of the museum affairs requires an effective public policy in this area. Bringing all components of such a policy in line with the challenges of the time, focusing on state-building guidelines, developing identity, satisfying the public interest is an extremely important task today. Recent research and publications analysis. The research topics of Ukrainian and foreign scholars relate to various areas of the museum sphere: the connection of economic processes and museum activities; local communities and the development of museums in a pandemic; transformation of museum institutions; balanced development, sustainability, etc. The following scientists studied the essence and content of these processes: I. Panteleychuk, R. Mankovskaya, N. Filipchuk, Y. Klyuchko, L. Pleshakova, T. Shlyapakova, B. Boniface, S. Cooper, R. Mencarelli, C. Alcaraz, I. Pop, A. Borza, T. Komarac and others. The paper objective – analysis of indicators illustrating the problems and trends of public policy in the field of museum affairs in Ukraine, the functioning of museums in crises, in particular, which are a consequence of the armed aggression of the Russian Federation and the annexation of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea. The paper main body. The Ministry of Culture and Information Policy of Ukraine is the main body in the system of central executive bodies, which ensures the formation and implementation of state policy in the field of museum affairs. There is no complete list of existing museums of various forms of ownership. The last update of the list, as stated on the website of the Ministry of Culture and Information Policy of Ukraine, took place on May 10, 2018. The most common type of museum in Ukraine is local lore. There are 567 such museums of various forms of ownership: state (regional, district, city) and non-state. The number of historical museums is 235 units. 196 museums have national status. There are 89 registered art museums in the database, including 52 art museums and 37 art galleries. Given the military actions in eastern Ukraine caused by the occupation of part of Ukraine by the Russian Federation, museums related to military affairs and memory are popular: troops - 63, military glory - 51, war - 6. Minimizing the negative impact of the political factor on the development of museums would help to improve the performance of museum institutions of their social functions, regardless of which model (elite, democratic or mixed) is a museum. Indicators of museum activity, which are summarized by the State Statistics Service of Ukraine by regions and the country as a whole are: number of museums, museum branches, distribution of museums by status, by profile, number of main and auxiliary funds, classification of funds by regions and museum profile , movement of funds, area of the museum territory, research, exposition and exhibition work, number of visitors, main characteristics of museum staff, etc. The study of trends in museum activities is carried out in comparison with the development of tourism. The relative growth rates of the number of museum visitors and the growth rates of the number of tourists served by tour operators and travel agents for the corresponding period are calculated. The analysis shows that a significant decrease in indicators occurred in 2014, when the Russian Federation annexed Crimea and the Russian-Ukrainian war began. The growth rate of the number of tourists served by tour operators and travel agents in almost all years exceeds the growth rate of the number of museum visitors for the period 2011-2019. The growth rate is calculated relative to the previous year. The biggest difference in the growth rate is 2018: 62% increase in the number of tourists served by tour operators and travel agents against 4.88% increase in the number of museum visitors. The leaders in the number of museums per 1 million population in Ukraine are Dnipropetrovsk, Zhytomyr and Odessa regions. Conclusions of the research. It is determined that the legal basis of museum affairs in Ukraine is prescribed in the legislation, in particular, in the Law of Ukraine «On Museums and Museum Affairs». The basic indicators illustrating problems and tendencies of realization of the public policy in the field of museum affairs in Ukraine are considered. Analysis of the performance of the museum affairs in the crisis, which is a consequence of the armed aggression of the Russian Federation and the annexation of the autonomous Republic of Crimea, proves a significant decrease in all indicators in 2014-2015 and a gradual increase in subsequent years. Relative indicators have been calculated that indicate the impact of armed aggression on museum activities, such as: the growth rate of the number of museum visitors and the growth rate of the number of tourists served by tour operators and travel agents for the relevant period. The analysis shows that a significant decline occurred in 2014, when Russia occupied Crimea and the Russian-Ukrainian war began. It is noted that for Ukraine the negative factor influencing the development of museums is still political, which is illustrated by the example of the Odessa Art Museum, the Ivan Honchar Museum and «Mystetskyi Arsenal» National Culture, Arts and Museum Complex. Emphasis is placed on the need for the Ministry of Culture and Information Policy of Ukraine to develop a state strategy for the development of the museum industry.
