Title A name given to the resource Is energy transition possible for oil-producing nations? Probing the case of a developing economy Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Isaac Ankrah, Kingsley Dogah, Sampson Twumasi-Ankrah, Frank Gyimah Sackey, Richard Asravor, Derrick Ofori Donkor, Christopher Lamptey, Lilian Arthur Description An account of the resource An expected decline in oil revenue and a complicated global energy market present significant concerns about oil-producing countries’ intentions to move away from fossil fuels. Understanding the dynamics of these concerns, particularly in light of potential energy transitions, is crucial for future energy supply and sustainable energy discussion. Given the scarcity of research on the issue, this study examined whether an implied shift from fossil fuels to a cleaner energy state is possible for Ghana, a small oil-producing economy in sub-Saharan Africa. A two-state Markov Switching Model (MSM) was applied to a dataset covering 1980–2019. Results based on a multivariate state-dependent regression technique were documented as follows: First, the probability of transitioning from a nonrenewable energy state to a renewable energy state is 76.5%. Second, there is 80.2% chance of remaining in a renewable energy … Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Elsevier Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2023 Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived https://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=view_citation&hl=en&user=2H8lVDsAAAAJ&citation_for_view=2H8lVDsAAAAJ:qjMakFHDy7sC Language A language of the resource English Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Attaining sustainable business performance via eco-innovation under ecological regulatory stringency and market turbulence Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Otu Larbi-Siaw, Hu Xuhua, Derrick Ofori Donkor Description An account of the resource The study examines approaches wherein two external factors spur Ghanaian firms to eco-innovate: ecological regulatory stringency and market turbulence. The study's conceptual framework is evaluated using survey data from 513 Ghanaian manufacturing firms using a hybrid Partial Least Square-Structural Equation Model and Arttificial Neural Network technique, which provides support to the proposed hypothesis. Thus, by dividing eco-innovation into product eco-innovation and process eco-innovation, we infer that ecological regulation stringency improves sustainable business performance primarily through process eco-innovation instead of product eco-innovation and market turbulence has a greater impact on sustainable business performance through product eco-innovation as opposed to process eco-innovation. Our research adds to the literature on eco-innovation and green economy by providing a … Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Elsevier Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2023 Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived https://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=view_citation&hl=en&user=2H8lVDsAAAAJ&citation_for_view=2H8lVDsAAAAJ:9yKSN-GCB0IC Language A language of the resource English Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Relationship between Board Structure Characteristics and Financial Performance of Listed Food and Beverage Firms in Ghana. Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Angmor Peter Lawer Description An account of the resource This paper investigates the relationship between board structure characteristics and financial performance of Listed Food and Beverage Firms (LFBFs) in Ghana. The study relied on published financial reports of LFBFs for the period of 2001 to 2013. To achieve the objective of the study, we estimated a linear regression model based on panel data which was performed on the dependent variable, return on assets (ROA). Through statistical calculations, we found evidence that board size and Chief Executive Officer duality have significant negative relationships with return on assets, with board composition having insignificant negative relationship with return on assets. However, a significant positive relationship was established between board ownership and return on assets. The study recommends that LFBFs in Ghana should consider having the right mix of experience and skills on the board, but not necessarily considering only a small or large board size. Also, shareholders should encourage board members to own shares in their firms and the few firms practicing CEO duality should work hard to reverse the practice completely.

Title A name given to the resource Determinants of Leverage in Ghana: Evidence from listed Manufacturing and Trading Sector Companies Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Peter Lawer Angmor Description An account of the resource The paper examines the effect net profit, firm size, tangibility, firm growth and risk have on leverage of manufacturing and trading sector companies listed on the Ghana Stock Exchange during the period 2005 to 2014. The paper relied on published financial statements of the listed manufacturing and trading companies for the period. Using a panel regression model, the study found a significant negative relationship between firm size and leverage as well as growth and leverage. Profitability established a negative and insignificant relationship with leverage. An insignificant positive relationship was found between tangibility and leverage and an insignificant positive relationship was also found between risk and leverage. The study suggests listed manufacturing and trading companies should apply the pecking order theory in their capital structure decisions and favor internal source of funds for their financing needs.

Title A name given to the resource Experiencing Change through Continuous Professional Development: The Case of Ghana Technology University College Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource and Peter Lawer Angmor Esi Akyere Mensah, Derrick Ofori Donkor, Michael Owusu–Akomeah Description An account of the resource This paper presents preliminary findings from an ongoing investigation into the effect of continuous professional development (CPD) on the teaching of university lecturers. We sought to explore the experiences of lecturers who have taken part in CPD and how these experiences had changed their teaching styles. Specifically, the objectives were to inquire into their reason (s) for embarking on CPD, the types of CPD undertaken as well as the changes that had been made in their teaching, learning and assessment practice as a result of their CPD. The study used interviews as well as self-reflective reports to ascertain answers to these objectives from participants‟ perspectives. This paper compares and determines the most important changes that have occurred in the teaching/learning at the Ghana Technology University College and possible future impact that the changes may have on lecturers.

Title A name given to the resource Exploring the Effect of Internal Auditors’ Function on Financial Performance of Universal Banks in Ghana Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Peter Lawer Angmor, Musah Basig Diaboh Description An account of the resource The function of internal auditing cannot simply be overemphasised; hence the need to explore the effect of internal auditors’ functions on the financial performance of Ghanaian universal banks. A quantitative approach design was used. SPSS and Amos software were used to analyse the data. With 200 respondents, factor loadings, reliability, and validity (CR, AVE, and alpha) tests were conducted. Discriminant validity and square root of Average Variance Extracted in the diagonal was also conducted. Finally, via structural equation modelling (SEM), three hypotheses were tested using indicators of t-test, probability values, and beta values to accept or fail to accept the relationships. Preliminary data was gathered by surveying ten Ghanaian universal banks regulated by the Bank of Ghana via survey questionnaires. Overall, there was a favorable and significant correlation between management support and the auditors' competence and independence. It was concluded that the study met the required goal by shedding light on the role of (IA) functions in the financial performance of the Ghanaian banking industry. Hence, auditors' independence, competence, and management support are critical functions of internal auditing for banks to improve their financial gains.
