  • Exploring the effects of financial liberalisation on foreign direct investment: moderating role of corruption and political instability   Order a copy of this article
    by Ferdos Jamal, Yan Zhijun 
    Abstract: This study investigates the relationship between financial liberalization (FL) and foreign direct investment (FDI) in Pakistan between 1996 and 2022, focusing on the moderating effects of political instability and corruption. To address the complicated factors that play a role in FDI decisions, this study considers FL impact while also considering the potential impact of corruption and political instability. This empirical study is based on a comprehensive dataset that contains information on the FL index, FDI inflow, corruption, and political instability. The findings indicate a substantial association between FL and FDI, with higher levels of FL having a tendency to attract more FDI than lower ones. In addition, significant interaction effects between corruption and political instability were found in the relationship between FL and FDI. The results help in understanding of increasing FDI inflows by integrating efforts to combat corruption and ensuring political stability with projects involving FDI.
    Keywords: financial liberalisation; FDI; foreign direct investment; corruption; political instability; Pakistan.

  • How CEO turnover and disclosures on social media influence investors’ behaviours?   Order a copy of this article
    by Yan Zhou, Shihui Fan 
    Abstract: This study examines whether: 1) the frequency of CEO turnover announced on social media; and 2) reposts of CEO turnover news on social media impacted investors’ investment decisions. We provide two results. First, the frequency of CEO turnover negatively impacts the investors willingness to invest. Second, the reposts of CEO termination news do not significantly impact investors investment decisions. Our study fills the gap between CEO turnover and social media disclosures by investigating the impact of reposts and posts of CEO turnover news on social media instead of traditional media on investors’ perceptions of firm performance and their investment decisions. Our study also complements and extends the CEO turnover literature by looking at a new angle of CEO turnover.
    Keywords: CEO turnover; social media; investment decisions.
