This study provides the first firm-level evidence demonstrating that while tax sparing provisions consistently encourage market entry by OECD multinationals in low-and-middle income countries, the effects of double tax relief methods on investment intensity and entry are heterogeneous and depend significantly on whether firms invest directly or indirectly.
This paper introduces the first comprehensive state-level database of physical therapy scope-of-practice laws and finds that greater regulatory restrictiveness significantly reduces the density of physical therapy establishments across U.S. counties.
This paper introduces a new state-level database and index measuring the regulatory stringency of chiropractic scope of practice across the United States, revealing significant cross-state variation and demonstrating a negative association between regulatory restrictiveness and chiropractic business density.
This paper introduces the concept of "economically compelled green adaptation" to explain how Nigeria's ride-hailing sector transitioned to compressed natural gas (CNG) following fuel subsidy removal, arguing that existing green entrepreneurship and technology adoption theories fail to account for environmentally beneficial outcomes driven solely by economic necessity rather than intentional environmental concern.
This study addresses a gap in health economics literature by introducing a new dataset that documents state-level regulatory variations in the scope of practice for nine key respiratory therapist tasks, aiming to support future research in health policy and cardiopulmonary health.
This systematic literature review of 51 peer-reviewed articles published between 2020 and 2025 identifies key antecedents of financial sustainability in higher education institutions, including governance, digital transformation, and stakeholder engagement, to propose a multidimensional conceptual framework for enhancing financial viability across diverse global contexts.
This paper proposes a reproducible event-fixed evaluation protocol for financial stress detectors that reveals how conventional day-level metrics can misleadingly rank competing models, demonstrating that different detectors excel in distinct performance dimensions (such as precision versus detection speed) and that their relative superiority depends on the specific cost ratio of false positives versus missed events.
This study demonstrates that the Environmental Kuznets Curve hypothesis is valid for SAARC economies only when employing heterogeneous panel estimators like CS-ARDL and accounting for structural breaks, revealing that energy consumption is the primary driver of emissions and advocating for differentiated environmental policies based on income thresholds.
This paper demonstrates that a clean-sheet 18-seat hybrid-electric seaplane can achieve direct operating cost parity with a conventional turboprop on Mediterranean routes, but its overall financial viability hinges critically on achieving a ticket yield threshold of approximately €1.55 per passenger-nautical mile, making its business case highly sensitive to policy incentives and cost-learning rather than technology alone.
This study demonstrates that applying mathematical optimisation to daily stock data from five Indian companies reveals a trade-off where unconstrained return maximisation leads to excessive concentration and high volatility, whereas diversified strategies like minimum-risk or equally weighted portfolios offer more stable returns and better risk-adjusted performance for enterprise finance.
