Title A name given to the resource An Empirical Examination of the Impact of Corporate Governance on Organizational Performance: Evidence from Ghana Healthcare Industry Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource STEPHEN OWUSU AFRIYIE Description An account of the resource Corporate governance establishes a structure for evaluating organizational activities so that actions or work processes can be measured in a more formal and transparent manner, so that real situational reasoning can also be drawn. At the same time, corporate governance is also a means to implement these organizational principles and monitor performance through an effective board of directors. High-quality corporate governance has now become a common concern in the business community. In the past decade, "good corporate governance" has been incorporated into the healthcare industry as a factor to improve performance. The primary goal of sound corporate governance is to improve corporate performance, enhance institutional accountability, and avoid major disasters. This study uses the Ghanaian health industry as a case study to study the impact of corporate governance on organizational performance. The researcher focused on Ghana because it is the only country in Africa that has consistently implemented a universal health insurance policy since 2004. After designing a descriptive research plan, the researcher conducted a set of designed pre-coded questionnaires to 1,500 respondents in 10 regional (provincial) hospitals across the country. The primary data used in the study came from the financial statements, board documents, and other statistical information of the Ministry of Health and the Ghana Health Service. Multiple regression, logistic regression, and structural equation modeling methods were used to analyze the impact of corporate governance on organizational performance. The impact of corporate governance on organizational performance was predicted using primary and secondary data. The empirical investigation provided in this study shows that there is a positive relationship between corporate governance and performance. Since corporate governance provides a structure to confirm the goals and objectives of an organization, it is important for institutions to focus on good corporate practices that are effective in achieving improved performance. Nonetheless, the key to governance lies in the application of a reliable and achievable integrated governance system that drives the achievement of the set goals. Corporate governance encompasses the management of all the resources of an organization, which should be considered as limited, and accountability becomes the epitome of corporate governance. These resources can be financial, human, natural, social or environmental resources that make the organization sustainable in a competitive market. Achieving good corporate governance helps companies implement sustainability strategies throughout the business processes, managing goal setting and reporting. This stipulates that corporate governance maintains a culture where good relationships among stakeholders contribute optimistically to the goals of the organization. In light of this, this study aims to measure and evaluate the proposed corporate governance practices adopted by health institutions. The researcher investigated whether the corporate governance practices of different hospitals … Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Jiangsu University Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2019 Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived https://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=view_citation&hl=en&user=TbSlw38AAAAJ&cstart=20&pagesize=80&citation_for_view=TbSlw38AAAAJ:2osOgNQ5qMEC 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 THE VALUATION OF STUDENT ENTREPRENEURS AND THEIR BUSINESS PLANS USING FACTOR ANALYSIS Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Stephen Owusu Afriyie, Kong Yusheng, Chosniel Elikem Ocloo, Michael Owusu Akomeah, Patrick Obeng Danso Description An account of the resource This work analyzes investor assessment of students’ business plan, with the hope of boosting their confidence level as they venture into business. The main goal of this study is to prove if investor support programs can assist students to get requisite know-how in becoming entrepreneurs, such that they could be great business tycoons after school. Conscientiousness or due diligence in entrepreneurship could be an approach of a modernday investor to increase the confidence level of entrepreneurs being groomed in universities by identifying entrepreneurial skills in students and mentoring them. This forms a part of the investors’ strategy to make use of internal resources and skills, as well as opportunities and risks created by its external environment in venturing into a business. The entrepreneur is usually seen as an innovator, a source of new ideas, resources and business dealings. Identifying business opportunities, self-confidence and seed capital were found to be the most important attributes in motivating students to start a new venture. The authors of this study performed this kind of research using Factor Analysis.

Title A name given to the resource Credit risk management system of commercial banks: an analysis of the process Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Stephen Owusu Afriyie, Kong Yusheng, Li Kaodui, Ayamba Emmanuel Caesar, M Owusu-Akomeah Description An account of the resource Credit risk is the risk that a financial institution will incur losses because the financial position of a borrower has deteriorated to the point that the value of an asset (including off-balance-sheet assets) is reduced or extinguished. The purpose of this work is to expatiate strategies to mitigate challenges resulting from unpaid loans, which could be used further in understanding the components of credit risk management (CRM) system of commercial banks (CBs) in a less developed economy. This was accomplished through the use of both primary (interviews) and secondary (various relevant documents) information from CBs and key management officials dealing with credit management. The investigation proved that credit risk can be managed and minimized when formidable strategic approaches are implemented and adhered to. This implies that the strategy operated by a bank is an important consideration for a CRM system to be successful. Ghana, a less developed economy, provides an excellent case for studying how CBs operating in economies with less developed financial sector manage their credit risk.

Title A name given to the resource Forensic accounting: A novel paradigm and relevant knowledge in fraud detection and prevention Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Stephen Owusu Afriyie, Michael Owusu Akomeah, Gertrude Amoakohene, Benjamin Chris Ampimah, Chosniel Elikem Ocloo, Michael Owusu Kyei Description An account of the resource Forensic accounting is a new trend that goes beyond normal audit approaches and procedures for fraud identification. The practice applies reliable principles and methods to obtain sufficient facts or data that provide basis for prosecution in the law court. Forensic accountants characteristically need adequate know-how and skills for investigation and proactive audit to control fraud. With globalization of the economy, fraudsters can be found in any organization. These criminals take advantage of loopholes such as suspicious financial statement, defective internal controls, and poor corporate governance. Hence, there is a great need for skilled forensic accountants to detect, prevent and expose the weak system. The professionals can exercise their mandate by reporting the obvious cases of fraud committed to a law court for prosecution.

Title A name given to the resource Application of BCG as a strategic planning tool to assess the sustainability and growth of university programs in a competitive market Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Stephen Owusu Afriyie, Yusheng Kong, Michael Owusu Akomeah, Kingsley Appiah, Patrick Obeng Danso Description An account of the resource With regards to the competitive environment for consumer demand, it is imperative for organizations to utilize reputed models for tactical resource allocation to different strategic business units and products. The work describes and explains the BCG portfolio matrix model to assess five Ghanaian university programs. Effective implementation of the BCG model helps the institution of higher education to achieve the finest status from the viewpoint of competitive positions in the market. The model helps institutions choose which markets and business units to finance on the basis of two features-competitiveness and market attractiveness; with the fundamental drivers for these factors being market share and growth rate respectively. Therefore, for the survival and growth of the product, the firm needs to adopt some effective and operative strategies, and also invests in areas like research and development which will enhance new ideas. Of course, the technological and innovative aspects should also not be disregarded. These strategies will enhance an innovative brand in the existing market which will help the product gain a competitive advantage. This paper attempts to analyse the business model, BCG and how it can seek to promote sustainability and growth of the university programs in a competitive market.
