One of the main problems faced by Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) is capital. The limited capital owned by SMEs encouraged them to obtain loans by accessing credit from financial institutions. However, not all SMEs can access credit from financial institutions because before giving credit the creditor needs to gain confidence that the prospective debtor is able to repay his credit based on 5C credit principles (character, capacity, capital, condition of economy, collateral). This study aims to determine the effect of collateral value, business turnover, business age and provision of accounting information on accessibility of formal credit. The type of research used is survey research. The population in this study are all SMEs engaged in the trade sector in Banyumas Regency. The sampling technique used is proportionate stratified sampling with a sample of 100 respondents. Data collection techniques in this study used survey techniques by distributing questionnaires to respondents. The data analysis technique in this study used multiple regression analysis assisted by SPSS software. The results of this study indicate that: (1) collateral value has a significant positive effect on access to formal credit, (2) business turnover has a significant positive effect on access to formal credit, (3) business age has no significant influence on access to formal credit, (4) information provision accounting has a significant positive effect on access to formal credit. Adjusted R Square testing results show that the effect of collateral value, business turnover, business age, and provision of accounting information on access to formal credit is 54.7% while 45.3% can be explained by other variables not examined. The implication of this research is to be able to increase access to formal credit, SMEs need to (1) own assets that can be used as collateral where the value must be greater than the amount of credit proposed, (2) improve their ability to manage businesses to obtain optimal business turnover, (3) strive to improve the provision of accounting information appropriately so that it can facilitate financial institutions to assess actual business conditions

The dwindling growth of small businesses and their rate of failure in South Africa has been traced to poor financing. Thus, the factors affecting the financial sustainability of small and medium-sized enterprises in South Africa are examined in this study. Using purposive sampling, data were collected from 310 respondents, however six were incorrectly completed. The analysis was based on data collected from 304 respondents which cut across owners and/or managers from small and medium construction, manufacturing, retail, and agricultural enterprises. A quantitative research design that falls under the positivist paradigm was used. Specifically, through a descriptive and multivariate regression analysis, it was found that financial awareness, budgeting, accounting skills, and access to finance have positive and significant effects on the financial sustainability of SMEs with all the variables, having 0.005 probability values, respectively. Out of all the variables examined, budgeting and access to finance have the largest absolute values of 0.425 and 0.373, respectively. Thus, it was concluded that workshops, training, and seminars to improve the financial literacy of small and medium enterprises should be organised. This will improve owner’s ability to deploy the accounting and budgeting skills and they will be exposed to meeting loan criteria and conditions from financial institutions. Also, adequate funds should be allocated to cater for the regular training and development of small business owners using the services of financial experts.

ABSTRACT We study the interaction between interbank competition and accounting information quality and their effects on banks' risk-taking behavior. We identify an endogenous false-alarm cost that banks incur when forced to sell assets to meet capital requirements. We find that when the interbank competition is less intense, an improvement in the quality of accounting information encourages banks to take more risk. Keeping the banks' investments in loans constant, the provision of high-quality accounting information reduces the false-alarm cost of assets sales and improves the discriminating efficiency of the capital requirement policy. When considering the banks' endogenous investment decisions, however, this improvement in discriminating efficiency causes excessive risk-taking, because banks respond by competing more aggressively in the deposit market, and the increase in deposit costs motivates banks to take more risk. Our paper shows that improving information quality increases risk-taking with mild competition, but has no effect under fierce competition.

Purpose This paper aims to analyse the implications of globalisation and the adoption of international standards (International Financial Reporting Standards [IFRS]) for accounting information quality. Design/methodology/approach This paper uses a sample of 329 banks across 29 countries leading up to and beyond the implementation of IFRS to test for related hypotheses. Findings First, banks’ financial statements are prepared on the basis of international standards as national economies are integrated when social norms are diffused. Building on these results, the second test suggests that the relatively high-quality earnings among banks in Africa during the period is attributable to the adoption of and interaction of IFRS with globalisation and the strategy of banks to diversify within and across interest and non-interest income. Originality/value The authors investigate how globalisation and the adoption of IFRS affect accounting information quality.

The study investigated the direct effects of financial literacy (knowledge, skills, and attitudes) on financial preparedness for retirement and the moderating effect of age among the small and medium enterprises in Uganda. Primary data was collected from a sample of n = 380 selected from the SME workforce. Descriptive analysis was run on SPSS, while validity and reliability of the measurement items yielded satisfactory composite reliability scores and average variance explained (AVE) scores for all items. Structural equation modelling (SEM) was used to test the hypotheses and multi-group analysis conducted to test for the moderating effect of age on the relationship between financial literacy and retirement preparedness. The results revealed that knowledge and skills were significant predictors of retirement preparedness. However, ‘attitude' was not a significant predictor, and age had no moderating effect on the relationship between the study variables. These findings present practical implications for policymakers and financial educators in a developing country context.
