Bank Types, Inclusivity, and Paycheck Protection Program Lending During COVID-19

How do differences in bank or lending institution type shape access to credit for small businesses in poor and/or minority communities in the United States? Banking systems are populated by lenders that differ qualitatively in their organizational forms, business models and missions, and that connect—or fail to connect—to small business borrowers and local communities in divergent ways. The authors analyze data on the Paycheck Protection Program and its over 11 million loans made to businesses across the United States to trace how these differences shaped the flow of credit to poor and minority communities. The authors find substantial differences across seven lender types, both in their propensities to avoid or lend to firms in traditionally marginalized communities, and in how much they lend to poor and majority–minority communities relative to their nonpoor and majority White counterparts. From this variety within American banking, the authors identify two potential pathways for more inclusive lending.

Market and State Failures in The Healthcare Model under The COVID-19 Pandemic

The health care market has special features associated with the production of both private and public goods, it has a special structure of competition and transactions. The business models of medical organizations are based on a two-level value proposition – organizations in the analyzed field work for their clients (the population of a territory) and simultaneously for the state, which plays a role of a customer of the public good. This leads to the mixture of the healthcare and insurance markets and, as a result, the development of specific monetization scheme in the field of medical services. The article focuses on market and institutional coordination mechanisms in the Russian healthcare market transformation in the context of the 2020-2022 pandemic.

Impact of New Digital Media on Conventional Media and Visual Communication in Jordan

The purpose of the present research was to assess the impact of new digital media on conventional media and visual communication has been significant. Digital media has transformed how information is created, distributed, and consumed, and has profoundly affected traditional forms of media such as print newspapers, magazines, and television. One of the main ways that new digital media has affected traditional media is through the emergence of online platforms and social media. These platforms have allowed individuals and organizations to publish and share content with a global audience, often bypassing traditional gatekeepers such as editors and broadcasters. This has led to the democratization of media, as anyone with an internet connection can now potentially reach a large audience. Digital media has also led to the rise of new forms of visual communication, such as digital graphics, video, and animation. These forms of media allow for more interactive and immersive experiences and have become increasingly popular with audiences. In addition, digital media has also had an impact on the business models of traditional media organizations. Many have struggled to adapt to the shift towards digital advertising and subscriptions, leading to a decline in revenues and layoffs in some cases. It may be the case that the impact of new digital media on conventional media and visual communication has been significant and wide-reaching and will likely continue to shape the media landscape for years to come.

Individual entrepreneurial factors affecting adoption of circular business models: An empirical study on small businesses in a highly resource-constrained economy

The adoption of a circular business model by entrepreneurs is an alternative and innovative way of minimizing wastage and increasing operational efficiency. While existing literature focuses on the suitability of the circular economy to the business models of large organizations, there is a dearth of empirical and quantitative research on the adoption of the circular business model by small and medium-sized enterprises in poor and resource-constrained economies. This study addresses these gaps by quantitatively examining the role of individual entrepreneurial factors that determine the adoption of circular business models. Using self-administered questionnaires distributed to 361 small business owners, we use the Logistic regression model to test the relationship between individual entrepreneurial factors and the adoption of circular business models. We find that while risk-taking and innovativeness significantly affect the adoption of circular business models, self-efficacy and proactiveness show insignificant effects. By examining the individual entrepreneurial factors affecting the adoption of the models, we offer both theoretical and practical implications for researchers and practitioners. We recommend the implementation of new policies to promote circular business models as a less risky form of investment, including higher investment in emerging technologies such as internet-of-things (IoT) and digitalization to create a circular supply chain, reduction in entrepreneurial risk, improvement in the entrepreneurs’ self-efficacy; and creating pull-enforcement demand by boosting awareness about the importance of circular business models among customers. This would encourage entrepreneurs to create more innovative circular products and services.

Deconstruction of the Innovation Path of Digital Transformation Based on Network Big Data Security in the Context of Smart City

Digital transformation means that traditional enterprises have combined commerce, administration, and manufacturing with cloud services, the use of big data, and the web to advance the modern transformation of their research and development, creation, manufacturing and assembly, administration of operations, commercial support, and more tasks. Digital transformation showed that only companies can radically and completely (or substantially and completely) redefine their business—not just IT but all aspects of organizational activities, processes, business models, and employee capabilities. Only then can success be achieved. This paper aimed to study the innovative path of digital transformation and propose a network-based big data security method. Combined with the experimental analysis, it was concluded that using network big data security to monitor computer and network security (CNS), the attack detection accuracy rate is up to 99.8%. It can be seen that this method can accurately capture the shortcomings and leaks in the process of digital transformation, help achieve targeted path innovation, and improve the technological improvement and asset income growth of enterprises in the context of smart cities.
