Religion, personality traits and the nature of entrepreneurial activities: insights from Scottish Muslim entrepreneurs

PurposePrevious studies have shown how the nature of businesses and the strategies pursued by their owners are affected by the personality traits of their owners. These personality traits can be formed in the early stages of life due to experiences and the surrounding context, where religion is a particularly important aspect of this context. This study aims to explore how religion affects entrepreneurial activities through the personality traits created.Design/methodology/approachThis study uses interviews with 43 Muslim entrepreneurs in Scotland to examine the role played by religion. This ensures that the national institutional context is kept consistent but also allows an in-depth examination of relationships, which are likely to be interlinked and recursive.FindingsThe traits created influence the nature of the entrepreneurial activities undertaken with the potential to harm and support the entrepreneurial endeavours. It is the combination of personality traits that are formed which have the greatest effect. As such, it is found that Muslim entrepreneurs display less openness and creativity associated with new ideas, but this does not reflect risk aversion rather hard work in itself is valued, and patience combined with an external locus of control mean entrepreneurial behaviours are not altered to boost poorly performing business activities.Originality/valueFor Muslim entrepreneurs in Scotland, their traits explain why growth may not be a foremost consideration of these entrepreneurs rather they may value hard work and meeting the ideals of formal and informal institutions associated with religion. For those seeking to support minority groups through the promotion of entrepreneurship, either they must seek to overcome these ingrained traits or alter support to complement the different objectives held by Muslim entrepreneurs.

This research was analyzed descriptively and using SEM-PLS analysis using a purposive sampling technique and 40 respondents. The results of the analysis show that individual factors and environmental factors directly influence entrepreneurial behavior. Then, business performance is directly influenced by entrepreneurial behavior and environmental factors, and indirectly influenced by individual factors and environmental factors through entrepreneurial behavior. Based on the results of the study, tempe business actors can increase their motivation to produce tempeh, carry out brand innovation as a form of branding and innovate as healthy tempeh so that it becomes an advantage compared to other tempe products.

Financial literacy and entrepreneurial behavior of Junior high school students: Basis for TLE management plan

This research assesses the Junior High School students’ financial literacy and its impact on their entrepreneurial behavior at Moalboal National High School for the school year 2022 - 2023 based on the TLE Management Plan. The research utilized a descriptive method of research to accurately and systematically describe the profile, financial literacy, and entrepreneurial behavior of the respondents who were chosen randomly using the fishbowl technique. Furthermore, a correlational study is also employed to determine the significant relationship between respondents’ financial literacy and entrepreneurial behavior. This study utilizes a standardized survey questionnaire for financial literacy retrieved from Jorgensen (2007) while for entrepreneurial behavior patterned from Abun, Foronda, Agoot, Belandres, and Magallanez (2018). It was revealed that respondents’ age range from 12 to 17, where there are a greater number of women than men, the majority of them are full-time students, very few are engaged to work, and a majority of their family income is below 20,000.00php; financial knowledge, attitude, and behavior are moderately average, entrepreneurial behavior is high or more than the average but not very high; demographic profile has significant relationship with financial literacy; demographic profile is not significant to their entrepreneurial behavior; financial knowledge and behavior do not have significant relationship with entrepreneurial behavior, but financial literacy does. It can be concluded that financial literacy as to financial attitude is a determinant of entrepreneurial behavior, presumably so as with financial knowledge and behavior if they were only fully developed. It is recommended to integrate financial literacy and entrepreneurial behavior extensively in the curriculum of secondary education.

Monitoring Transformation Processes in the Economy Using the Example of the IT Industry

The purpose of the research is to develop and test a methodology for monitoring transformation processes in the economy that intensified after the introduction of sanctions by Western countries (on the example of the IT-industry). The methodology is based on the Harvard paradigm of industry analysis (Structure- Conduct- Performance) and includes five stages. At the first, the basic conditions of the industry are assessed and the demographics of enterprises, industry barriers, intensity of competition and economies of scale are analyzed. The second analyzes the market structure that has developed in the industry and the intensity of competition using the concentration coefficient and the Herfindahl- Hirschman index. At the third stage, the behavior of industry enterprises is analyzed on the basis of summary statements and consolidated reports, as well as median values of indicators for enterprises. In the course of analyzing the behavior of enterprises, their market and operational efficiency, investment and financial activity are assessed. The type of growth and productivity of production factors is established by constructing the industry production function. Particular attention is paid to indicators of transformation processes — added value, labor productivity and return on capital. At the fourth stage, industry enterprises are grouped into four groups according to D. Birch’s method: fast-growing enterprises, large businesses, enterprises implementing an aggressive investment strategy and the rest of small businesses. At the fifth stage, indicators of the effectiveness of state economic policy are assessed. Calculations performed based on data from 2,451 enterprises in the IT industry showed that transformation processes in the industry have intensified, new enterprises are entering the industry, their operational and market activity is increasing, non-current assets and equity capital are growing. However, payments for investment activities do not allow us to draw an unambiguous conclusion about high investment activity; in addition, there is no significant influx of long-term borrowed capital into the industry, which hinders its development. Positive changes in the industry are largely associated with active government policy, which promotes the transition to domestic software, influencing the methods of fiscal policy, while monetary policy instruments are not used actively enough. The methodological basis of the study was formed by general scientific principles and methods: abstraction, generalisation of approaches of foreign and domestic authors to sectoral analysis, grouping, comparison, generalisation, as well as economic and mathematical methods. The result of the work is the methodology of industry monitoring, as well as the indicators of IT-industry development for the period 2018–2022 obtained during its testing. The article may be useful for analysts assessing the development of industries within the framework of industry analysis or industrial policy monitoring.

Research on enterprise production decision‐making considering consumer heterogeneity under carbon labeling system

AbstractThe article focuses on consumers with heterogeneous preferences for product carbon footprints under two carbon labeling systems: carbon reduction labels and carbon footprint labels. Using mathematical models, the study explores the optimal decision‐making behavior of enterprises under the carbon labeling system based on consumer utility theory at the enterprise level. It also investigates consumer surplus, environmental improvement, and social welfare under different production modes of the carbon reduction label and carbon footprint label systems at the societal level. The research findings are as follows: (1) At the level of economic benefits for enterprises, choosing to produce products with carbon reduction labels is more favorable when the investment costs for emission reduction are high, while choosing to produce products with carbon footprint labels is more favorable when the investment costs for emission reduction are low. The optimal prices of products under the two carbon labeling systems show opposite trends compared to the investment costs for emission reduction. (2) At the level of environmental benefits for enterprises, under the carbon reduction labeling system, whether through full production or a mixed production mode, enterprises are only willing to reduce the carbon footprint of products to the standard value. However, under the carbon footprint labeling system, especially in the mixed production mode, enterprises show a stronger willingness to overachieve in emission reduction target. (3) At the level of social benefits, compared to the situation under the carbon reduction labeling system, when the investment costs for emission reduction are low, the carbon footprint labeling system is more favorable in terms of consumer surplus and social welfare. However, this advantage gradually diminishes as the investment costs for emission reduction increase. (4) Excessive investment costs for emission reduction are detrimental to the implementation of both carbon reduction and carbon footprint labeling systems. The research conclusions suggest that companies should develop appropriate production strategies based on actual circumstances. Additionally, it is necessary for both the government and companies to reduce investment costs in emissions reductions by improving the system and optimizing emission reduction methods in order to better implement carbon labeling policies.
