Abstract Saving is one of the most important variables in the macro-economic theory. Different studies revealed that there is a significant relationship between income, saving, and investment, though they can determine the economic level of nations. This study was designed to capture the constituents of saving under different categories in Southern nations, nationalities, and peoples region with special reference to South west Ethiopia, Kaffa Zone. Three different models were adopted from a number of econometric and regression models adopted by different scholars depending on the country’s and regional economic and socio-cultural behavior. The panel approach (panel data) and cross-sectional data was adopted to measure the determinants of saving. The data utilized for this study was collected from both primary and secondary sources. The average monthly net deposit (AMND) was ‘the dependent variable and the independent variables can be taken in two forms. The first category includes the macro-economic variables as (per capita income, employment, rate of inflation, interest rate …etc) and the second category addresses the demographic variables as (age, gender, education, occupation…etc) which can be entertained at micro level. The reason behind using both panel approach and cross- sectional data is to make the study focus more on individual level variables those are not addressed by most of the studies conducted at macro-level. In addition to this cross-sectional data can support the panel data and helps for comparison of individual level variables with the variables at macro- level. According to the results obtained from the analysis income of the individuals is the most significant variable with cv (). Gender and age are another significant variables affecting saving behavior of individuals with cv (). Consumption pattern and preferences of the individuals are the most significant variable determining the level of saving with significant level of 0.672.

The article examines the impact of various socio-economic and financial indicators on the resilience of Russian regions. For each region, the integral index of resilience is calculated, and its correlation dependence with the selected indicators is revealed. The study confirms the relationship between fiscal resilience and socio-economic resilience of the regions. The analysis of panel data for 75 regions from 2007 to 2016 shows that there are significant differences in the dynamics of indicators in different periods. In particular, the degree of exposure to the negative effects of the crises of 2008—2009 and 2014—2015 in non-resilient regions is higher than in resilient ones.

Financial development could exert various effects on income distribution of a country. By employing Generalized Method of Moment, this paper aims at examining the impacts of credit market depth, one of most used financial development barometers, on income inequality in Vietnam. The empirical findings show that expanding credit market in the country could lead to higher income inequality. We have not found evidence that supports the hypothesis of an inverted U-shaped relation ever introduced by Greenwood and Jovanovich, although this hypothesis may still hold in a sense that Vietnam has not reached to the inflection point to generate such a curve alike.

This study examines whether board diversity affects firm performance. We investigate this study using panel data of a sample of S&P 500 firms during a 12 year period. After controlling for industry, firm size, and other board composition variables, we find that all three board diversity variables of interest – gender, ethnicity, and age have a significant influence on firm performance. While ethnicity and age have a positive influence on firm performance, it was found that gender has a negative influence. Implications for future research are discussed.
