ABSTRACT
This paper examined the effect of interest rate on real sector output growth in
Nigeria through the period 1985 to 2019. Data were obtained from the World Bank
Database on World Development Indicators and the Central Bank of Nigeria Statistical
Bulletin. The data were analysed using Augmented Dickey-Fuller unit root test, Cointegration,
and the Error Correction Mechanism. The unit root test revealed that the
variables were stationary at mixed order of levels and first difference necessitating the
test for co-integration. The co-integration test supported the existence of a long run
equilibrium relationship between interest rate and real sector output growth. Also,
interest rate was observed to exert a negative and significant effect on real sector growth.
Thus, a unit percentage increase in interest rate is likely to lead to a 0.274% decrease in
real sector output growth. The error correction term showed that 59.9% of the short run
disequilibrium in real sector output growth is corrected annually. The paper
recommended a cheap monetary policy that will keep interest rate at a favourable level
so as to encourage investors to borrow.
ABSTRACT
Nepal government had established National Reconstruction Authority (NRA)
for the Reconstruction of Earthquake Affected Structures. Chitwan is one of the least
affected districts where Bharatpur Metropolitan City lies. In Bharatpur, there were 711
total victims whose houses were completely destroyed by Earthquake. According to
NRA, the Earthquake victims are the beneficiary of 3 lakhs grants for reconstruction of
their houses in three installments. In the case study of Bharatpur Metropolitan City, we
had conducted research on effect of COVID-19 on labor management for reconstruction
works of those victims from 15th September 2019 till 07th September 2020. The
reconstruction activities were halted completely for two and half months in lockdown
periods. The major problem for this was due to lack of labors and materials scarcity in
local market. As most of the labors working on Bharatpur were found to be from
Country Border areas like Bara, Parsa, Siraha, Saptari, Sarlahi, Sunsari, Morang, etc and
from India too; lockdown had stopped them to reach their destiny and other problem was
the fear of COVID-19 transmission. Local government shall manage labors effectively
by producing local masons of its own area rather than depending upon outsiders and
provide the local masons with proper trainings and uplift the reconstruction works by
following the health protocols as explained by WHO and Health Offices. The study is
limited to assess the impact new provision of labour permit system.
ABSTRACT
This study investigated the relationship between human capital development and economic growth in Nigeria within the period 1990 to 2018. Annual time series data collected from the World Development Indicators (WDI), Central Bank of Nigeria Bulletin and the National Bureau of Statistics were used. Gross domestic product (GDP) was used as proxy for economic growth. The exogenous variables for human capital development were Human Capital (HC), government expenditure on education (GXE), government expenditure on health (GXH), life expectancy (LE), and fertility rate (FE). The vector autoregressive (VAR), Augmented Dickey Fuller (ADF) and Philip Perron (PP) test were employed. The results showed that FE had an inverse significant relationship with GDP while HC, GXE, GXH, LE had a direct significant relationship with GDP. A long run relation was established in the study. The paper recommended that the Nigerian government should evolve practicable framework for improved investment in key human capital development deliverables especially education and health which remains germane to labour productivity and economic development.
ABSTRACT
This study aims to determine the effect of leadership style and compensation on company performance with job satisfaction as intervening variables. The research was conducted at PT Arminareka Perdana. The research sample was 70 respondents. The sampling technique used random sampling techniques and data analysis techniques used path analysis. The results showed that the leadership style variables affect company performance. The compensation variable affects company performance. Job satisfaction variables affect company performance. The influence of leadership style on company performance through employee job satisfaction is 0.216. In this case, the direct effect is greater than the indirect effect, so it can be said that the job satisfaction variable is not intervening. The effect of compensation on employee performance through job satisfaction is 0.253. In this case, the direct effect is greater than the indirect effect, so it can be said that the job satisfaction variable is not intervening.

ABSTRACT
Abstract: The changing international/external economic environment, which is characterized by rapid globalization, expansion of foreign direct investment (FDI), trade liberalization, and technological developments, is creating both opportunities for and risks in achieving development objectives in Sudan. Within that international context and having in mind the difficult Sudanese external economic situation characterized by debt, embargos, deterioration of oil revenues and foreign exchange reserves, and loss of exports, the issue of FDI, in particular, and flows of foreign resources to the country, in general, need to be kept at the center of attention. As explained in a World Bank report [9].
