This article aims to address the correlations between public capital investments and economic development in Romania. Firstly, it presents a brief literature review on the subject proposed for analysis, under which it can be assumed that public capital investments have a positive impact on production, employment, private sector and thus contribute to economic development. Also, we found some heterogeneity of results across country, regions and sectors. Secondly, it analysis the evolution of public capital investments and gross domestic product during 2006-2009 and also tests the relationship between this two variables, using a correlation coefficient, based on data from the general consolidated budget provided by The Ministry of Public Finance and also statistical data on GDP from National Institute of Statistics.

The main objective of this paper is to examine the relationship between tax revenue and economic growth in Nepal. The 43 years' annual time series data from 1974/75 to 2016/17 of GDP, tax revenue and nontax revenue have been used to test the causal relationship of the variables. A unit root test, Engle-Granger’s co-integration and Error Correction Model have been applied for the data analysis. The variables have been found stationary after first differencing I(1) when Augmented Dickey-Fuller unit root test is employed. From Engel-Granger test, it has been found that the variables are co-integrated. The short-term coefficients are not significant, however error correction term (ECT) is significant and contains a negative sign in the error correction model (ECM). It validates the ECM model. The ECT has shown that the annual speed of adjustment from disequilibrium to equilibrium is 34.3 percent. So far as the relationship is concerned, there is a long run relationship between tax revenue and economic growth in Nepal controlling the non-tax revenue. The impact of tax revenue on economic growth could be a good impetus for the policy maker and planner to increase the collection of revenue for the country.

The study examined the impact of bank credits on the manufacturing sector in Nigeria from 1980 to 2015. The broad objective of the study is to examine the impact of bank credits on the manufacturing sector in Nigeria between 1980 and 2015. The econometrics methods of ordinary least squares, co-integration, error correction model and granger causality test were used as the main analytical tools. From the estimated error correction model, we found that bank credits to the manufacturing sector had a positive impact on the manufacturing sector output. Government expenditure, gross capital formation and tertiary school enrolment conforms to apriori expectation. A bank credit was found to be necessary for influencing or boosting manufacturing sector output. In addition, the granger causality result reveals that there is causal relationship between bank credits and manufacturing sector output in Nigeria. It is therefore recommended that the cost of borrowing should be reduced, and relevant authorities should maintain a sustained effort aimed at making sure that banks strictly comply with the credit concession granted to the manufacturing sector, and the government should provide social amenities and conducive environment for industrialization.

The study aims to examine the relationship between the unemployment rate and the contribution of the productive sectors to gross domestic product (GDP) in Sudan. It is assumed that there is statistically significant relationship between the unemployment rate and the contribution of the agricultural, industrial and service sectors in the GDP. The variables were subjected to several econometrics tests, such as Augmented Dickey–Fuller test (ADF), Autoregressive Distributed- lagged (ARDL) and the Error Correction Model (ECM) to test the short- and long- term relationship between study variables. The results of the descriptive analysis indicate that the average of unemployment rate is (17.7%) exceeds the average growth rate (4.9%) more than three times. While the results of the econometrics tests, including Augmented Dickey–Fuller, confirmed that the time series of the contribution of the agricultural and the industrial sectors are integrated from the degree one, while the time series of the unemployment rate is stationary at the level. The bounds test for co- integration within the Autoregressive Distributed- lagged methodology results provided evidence of a long- run equilibrium relationship between the unemployment rate and the share of productive sectors in GDP. While the estimation results of the long- run parameters of the ARDL the model showed a negative correlation between the unemployment rate and the share of the industrial sectors in the gross domestic product, with a time lag of (4) time periods. While the results of the error correction model confirmed that the unemployment rate is adjusted to its equilibrium value in each time period by 4.4% of the remaining balance of the period with onetime lag.  According to the results, the study recommended restructuring the productive sectors of the Sudanese economy, increasing the investments directed towards them, developing them, raising their efficiency, absorptive and operational capacity through multiple strategies that seek to increase employment opportunities. In addition to improve the efficiency of Sudanese labor through the development of educational curricula, training programs and professional to improve the efficiency of the supply of labor and increasing the demand for them in a way that absorbs the increasing numbers in the workforce. In addition to adopts strategies that focus on transformational training in line with current and future markets need.

Abstract In this paper, we examined the relationship between the growth of the Gross Domestic Product of the United States, the export value index, and the export of Bangladesh over 37 years between 1980 and 2016. The results of our preliminary tests showed that there was indeed a long-run relationship between these variables. Based on our preliminary analysis, we employed an error-correction model to identify the relationship between the variables. The error-correction term with the expected negative sign was statistically significant, and it confirmed that in the case of disequilibrium, the convergence towards the equilibrium happened in the subsequent periods. Additionally, the econometric estimates exhibited that the two-period lagged values of the growth in export of Bangladesh and the growth of the Gross Domestic Product of the United States were also statistically significant.JEL Classification: C22, C5, F41

The majority of studies that analyze the impact of entrepreneurship education on entrepreneurial attitudes, intentions, and venture activities report positive influences. However, several scholars have recently cast doubts about research methods and the generalizability of entrepreneurship education impact studies. In this study, we conducted a systematic literature review of the methods used in entrepreneurship education impact studies. Our results uncover significant methodological deficiencies and question the overwhelmingly positive impact of entrepreneurship education. Based on this evidence, we propose a series of recommendations to improve the reliability and validity of entrepreneurship education impact studies and we outline promising topics which are currently under-researched.

With the rapid development of information technology, information security has been gaining attention. The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) has issued international standards and technical reports related to information security, which are gradually being adopted by enterprises. This study analyzes the relationship between information security certification (ISO 27001) and corporate financial performance using data from Chinese publicly listed companies. The study focusses on the impact of corporate decisions such as whether to obtain certification, how long to hold certification, and whether to publicize information regarding certification. The results show that there is a positive correlation between ISO 27001 and financial performance. Moreover, the positive impact of ISO 27001 on financial performance gradually increases with time. In addition, choosing not to publicize ISO 27001 certification can negatively affect enterprise performance.
