The survey shows that the community's ability to utilize Islamic financial products is still low. This fact contradicts the potential development of a halal lifestyle and the increasing number of middle-class Muslims, and the fact that 87.2% of Indonesians are Muslim. It turns out that not many people know and take advantage of Islamic financial products, including Islamic investment. The purpose of the study was to determine the factors behind investment behaviour in sharia instruments as a form of implementing the halal lifestyle of people in Indonesia. The research subjects are Muslims who have or are currently investing in sharia securities, with 100 respondents. Data were collected by distributing online questionnaires. The data analysis technique uses Partial Least Square. The results show that attitudes and perceived behavioural control affect intention in investing in sharia securities, while subjective norms do not affect. Investment intention in sharia securities affects investment decisions. This study proves that investors' assessments and perceptions of factors that can support their investment activities, such as knowledge and skills, can influence their interest in investing in the Islamic capital market. Thus, it is essential to conduct training for novice investors to provide exposure to the Islamic capital market.

We analyse the investment behaviour of the defined contribution (DC) pension fund sector in equity markets during and after the 2008–2009 financial crisis until the years 2014–2016 and here for Chile, Mexico, Poland, and Italy. We employ quarterly data on equity purchases and sales and on cash flow at the level of the whole pension sector. Applied are the following methods: analysis of average quarterly transactions; scatter plot analysis of the relation between average quarterly net purchases and quarterly changes in asset value, a correlation analysis of average quarterly transactions in the equity market and its index values, regression analysis of average quarterly transactions in the equity market and its index values. The results indicate that in Poland and Italy, pension funds behaved counter-cyclically, whereas in Chile there are some signs, although less statistically significant, of pro-cyclical behaviour. In the case of Mexico no conclusions could be drawn. The investment behaviour of pension funds might be influenced not only by their strategic decisions but also by other factors that are related to the institutional framework they operate within (e.g. a strategic asset allocation benchmark may induce pro-cyclicality).

This article describes the key trends in the development of endowments as institutional investors using the example of US educational endowments in 1990-2020. The paper also gives an overview of the world structure of endowments assets by regions and sectors. Although much research has been done on investment behaviour and return of endowments, there are not so many works analysing the long-term trends in the development of endowments. The study uses methods of systemic and comparative analysis and statistical methods. The article demonstrates an intensive growth of endowment assets during 1990-2000 and the following maturing market. Special attention is given to identifying and analysing changes in the structure and concentration levels of the endowment's market. The author suggests that the earlier model of many different-sized funds has changed to the model where significant funds dominate and concentrate most assets. The paper also explains the changes in the investment behaviour of endowments, including how the size of endowment influences the asset structure of funds' investment portfolios and return. The paper shows the growing role of state universities endowments, an increase in the regulatory burden. Also, it presents some forecast of key trends in the development of endowments in the long run.

Purpose This paper aims to investigate German bank-affiliated venture capitalists’ investment practices and the emergence of their investment logics. Most studies focus on the investment behaviour of independent venture capitalists and little is known about dependent venture capitalists’ investment behaviour. The present study contributes to filling this gap in entrepreneurial finance literature. Design/methodology/approach The paper uses an exploratory qualitative research approach based on 27 semi-structured interviews with the top management of German bank-affiliated venture capitalists and industry experts to develop a conceptual model that explains the investment logics of bank-affiliated venture capitalists. A large amount of archival data has also been collected and used for the analysis. Findings The results indicate that bank-affiliated venture capitalists either follow an autonomous, contingent or hybrid investment logic. A bank-affiliated venture capitalist’s isomorphic focus – whether they feel isomorphic to the external venture capital environment or the internal parent bank’s environment – explains the emergence of multiple investment logics. Practical implications The paper encourages banks to get a better understanding of how the venture capital industry works and what they need to do to compete again independent venture capitalists. Banks and their affiliated venture capital units can improve their deal flows by recognising that they need to get accepted as an on-par investor in the venture capital environment. Originality/value The current study is the first of its kind investigating multiple investment logics by focussing on the link between different isomorphic habits and the specific context of bank-affiliated venture capitalists.
