We assess the relationship between bank governance practice (GCG), efficiency, capital and risk on value creation in a sample of Indonesia commercial banks using the balance panel methodology. Our results suggest that GCG has a positive impact on value creation and performance. We also find that higher interest margin eventually becomes more profitable, better capitalized and that higher capital levels tend to have a neutral or negative effect on value creation. Efficiency levels are positive to value creation. These results are generally confirmed by a series of robustness tests. The findings convey potentially important implications for bank prudential supervision and underline the importance of attaining better governance to support sustainability and financial stability objectives.

The article is dedicated to the problem of transversal competence development in modern society. It is defined that the main task of education is an adaptation to changes and providing employers with specialists who can easily face any challenges of modern society. The relevance of the research can be understood by the necessity to select a set of cross-disciplinary competences that provide transfer of learning and insurance that they comply with demands of the 21st century. Purpose of the study is to distinguish factors of transversal competences formation in society. Methodological part of the research consists of the set of theoretical methods such as analysis, synthesis, generalization and comparison of scientific literature and systematization of received results. The article emphasizes on the claim that modern process of education is founded on the ideas of sustainable society purpose of which is to appease to the society needs without jeopardizing needs of the future generations. Concept of education for sustainable development is essentially new way of world view that exists on the balance between social and economic prosperity with cultural and educational traditions with positive impact on environment. In order to form a training system of future specialists, theoretical and methodological approaches have been identified that are relevant today. In accordance with the highlighted aspects of the development of society, are distinguished such approaches as: synergetic approach, systemic one , activity and competence aproach .It is underlined that the necessity of transversal competence implementation into the educational process is defined by the correspondence with rapid growth of social and economic changes in the society that can be observed globally. Main peculiarities of transversal competences that are necessary for their formation in a society are pointed out. It is proved that the person who poses transversal competences is a specialist of innovative character that can easily adapt to any work sphere and any changes in the society. According to the received results, it is found out that factors for transversal competences formation in society are based on the principles of postmodern education and peculiarities of the sustainable society. Among main factors we can point out postmodern education, long live learning, directives of sustainable society and social and economic changes of the 21st century that form new paradigm of education. Future studies can be continued by applying theoretical knowledge in empirical research connected with the creating the model of transversal competence formation.Key words: transversality, postmodernism in education, sustainable society development, transversal com-petences, skills and abilities.

This paper has a three-fold purpose: to challenge the current conceptualization of firm-stakeholder engagement, to popularize ‘allemansrätten’, the Scandinavian social innovation tradition for environmental value creation and environmental governance for ensuring ecological balance, and to introduce the concept of usufructual rights and the tutelage of natural resources for promoting human dignity. We underscore the deficiencies in the current stakeholder paradigm by pinpointing the specific essential catalysts that move the stakeholder theory to a new paradigm of a universal stakeownership. This is a quest to ensure the preservation and sustainability of natural resources and life support systems within specific institutional orders. We employ an adaptive research approach based on the Finnish/Nordic ecological case with a focus on the concept of ‘everyman’s right’: Everyone has the freedom to enjoy Finland’s/Scandinavia’s forests and lakes but with that also comes everyman’s responsibility to preserve the country’s nature for future generations. We argue that uncritically valorizing the universalized position of the current understanding of stakeholdership, with its flourish of contradictory and inaccurate characterization of global sustainability, retroactively aborts our ecological ideals from the uterus of preferred futures at the expense of humanity as a whole for the benefit of a few speculators and profiteers. Thus, we are woven into an ecological and economic tapestry whose present and future the current generation is accountable for in the era of universal stakeownership for a crucial evolutionary adaptation. This, however, cannot come about without fundamentally ‘democratizing’ resource democracy from the grassroots and questioning the global power structure that decides on the distributive effects of resources.

Introduction. The objective civilizational processes of modern times transform national economies, significantly influence the formation of a new paradigm of state development as a competitive participant in interstate communications in the global dimension. The financial relations in the state, which are the result of its financial policy, take place in the search for coherence of the interests of its internal subjects. Taxpayers are trying to reduce the tax burden, citizens need quality public goods as a fair result of tax refunds, and the state is trying to effectively replenish resources, the main source of which is taxes, to fulfill its functions and develop competitive participation in the interstate communications of the globalized world. Under these conditions, the fiscal space is formed, the essence of which still remains unclear. Purpose. The purpose of the article is a comprehensive substantiation of the theoretical foundations of the essence and architecture of the fiscal space of Ukraine. Results. It has been proved that the transformation of the fiscal space of the state is a systematic change in the essential properties of the environment of interaction between the subjects of fiscal policy, aimed at effective mobilization of budget revenues and their rational use to obtain a positive impact on socio-economic development and welfare. It has been substantiated that the fiscal space belongs to the components of the public finance system, including revenues, expenditures and borrowings. Conclusions. In our opinion, the main idea of the transformation of the fiscal space is in two equally important areas: its effective formation for the allocation of additional financial resources and effective use to increase the efficiency of reasonable areas of budget expenditures. In these interconnected processes, a balance is sought between the divergent interests of the state and taxpayers as the main subjects in the fiscal space. This balance can be achieved on the basis of established public trust, which is an important indicator of a harmonious society.

PurposeThe Paris agreement for climate changes brought new attention to the themes of reduce carbon emissions, green ecosystems, the circular economy and the need to ensure the emergence of sustainable entrepreneurial ecosystems. This study aims to investigate entrepreneurship from the perspective of circular economy and waste collection in the Portuguese context.Design/methodology/approachFollowing a quantitative approach, the sample comprises 2,690 firm-year observations related to 354 firms from different industries within the waste from electric and electronic equipment (WEEE) scope.FindingsThe results show that a large part of SMEs started to comply with waste management regulations as of 2006 and are still not prone to innovation. Regulatory compliance is expected to have a positive impact on innovation, with a significant and positive change in the number of patents and the value of intangibles after companies comply with the waste management regulation.Originality/valueThis paper is original because it addresses equally to entrepreneurial ecosystems and circular economy (studies that address these two aspects are rare), with the Portuguese context in an embryonic stage with an extensive path to follow in the applicability of circular economy to business.

In the current competitive scenario, services now pervade all business activities, involving every production system and every organization. The emerging importance of services and their decisive role, compared to goods, in every business transaction in the global economy encourages scholars, professionals and business experts to engage in research models, paradigms and theories to better describe the new processes of value creation. This paper aims to analyze the applicability of the theoretical Service-Dominant Logic model to the field of local banking services, therefore, to interpret the concepts within a sector, that is, banking, in which the service component is increasingly becoming more strategic. The article briefly reviews the main features of the evolution of the process of banking services to represent their current evolutionary foundations in the light of the new paradigm of the S-D Logic. The paper combines theory and practice, with the help of a case study, appropriately selected for analysis. To conclude, the analysis shows that the theoretical approach of the Service-Dominant Logic improves the performance of the bank analyzed in economic terms (increased economic value created) as well as in terms of services offerred to customers with improved interactions, relationships and loyalty.

The article presents the analysis of the concept of competence approach from modern positions and from the point of view of the possibilities of transition to a new educational paradigm on its basis. The beginning of the new Millennium is characterized by global changes and profound processes in almost all spheres of human activity, especially in the field of communication technologies and education, as they are all closely interrelated. Currently, there is a transition to such an information society, in which the processes of generation, integration and dissemination of knowledge become a priority, and they should have a positive impact on the formation of a new paradigm of both education in General and private educational concepts and systems. This paradigm is aimed at the quality of modern education as a process and result of University practice and its quality management.
