The Interplay among Sustainability Reporting, Gross Profit Margin and Corporate Tax Strategies
This paper examines the intricate relationship between sustainability reporting, gross profit margin (GPM), and corporate tax strategies, particularly focusing on the role of corporate tax turnover ratio (CTTOR) as a moderating variable within coal mining corporations listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. The introduction posits that while the primary aim of companies is profit maximisation, this often leads to significant adverse effects on natural resources and the environment, necessitating a shift towards sustainable development practices. The study utilises a quantitative approach, analysing data from 32 coal mining companies over three years (2021-2023) to uncover how sustainability reporting impacts gross profit margins and how CTTOR modifies this relationship. Methodologically, the research employs multiple linear regression implemented through SPSS, alongside classical assumption tests, including normality, multicollinearity, heteroskedasticity, and autocorrelation. The findings affirm a positive correlation between sustainability reporting and GPM, indicating that enhanced sustainability practices lead to better financial performance. Moreover, CTTOR significantly strengthens this relationship, highlighting its role as a crucial factor in corporate tax strategies that can enhance profitability. The conclusion emphasises the importance of sustainability reporting in improving profit margins and compliance with tax regulations, advocating for broader adoption of sustainable initiatives among corporations to balance economic objectives with ecological responsibilities
Macroeconomic Factors and Stock Market Performance Based on New Evidence: A Case Study from Nigeria
The nexus between macroeconomic conditions and stock market performance is multifaceted in nature. One of the considerations of investors before investing in the stock market is to assess the macro-economic environment of the country. There have been divergent views on the relationship between stock market and macro-economic variables in literature and this debate is inconclusive. This study included the variable that measures the overall macroeconomic environment i.e. Country Policy and Institutional Assessment (CPIA), which is imperative and novel because it has been ignored in the past. This study provided empirical evidence on the relationship between selected macro-economic factors and stock market performance in Nigeria from 2003 to 2022. The foundational theory for this study is the Arbitrage Pricing Theory (APT). The study employed the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) cointegration approach to examine relationship between macroeconomic variables and stock market performance in Nigeria. The ARDL results established a short-run linear relationship and non-existence of long run relationship among the variables. The results suggested that stock performance in Nigeria was influenced positively by GDP growth although it was an insignificant influence. However, the study that the found overall macroeconomic environment, inflation, and interest rate spread, having a negative yet insignificant influence over the stock market performance. These findings are important for policy makers because the overall macro-economic environment considers the effectiveness of the policies and actions taken as well as the institutional arrangements a country\u27s government and central bank to regulate and control the economy. This study recommends the need for proper institutional arrangement and policy framework to manage and maintain stable macro-economic environment to promote stock market performance

Impact of Environmental Concern on Green Purchase Intention: A Mediation Model Using Green Trust
This study investigates the impact of environmental concern on green purchase intention, incorporating green trust as a mediator within the framework of the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB). The research aims to bridge the gap in understanding how environmental consciousness, attitude, and trust shape consumers’ intention to purchase eco-friendly products. A total of 500 students from various disciplines at a higher education institution in India participated in the study. Data was collected through an online survey and analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) to test the proposed hypotheses and examine the mediation effects. The results demonstrate that environmental concern positively influences both attitude and green trust, which in turn, enhance green purchase intention. Green trust significantly mediates the relationship between environmental concern and green purchase intention, supporting the importance of fostering consumer trust in promoting sustainable purchasing behavior. The study contributes to TPB by integrating environmental concern as a critical variable, extending the model’s explanatory power. From a marketing perspective, the findings highlight the need for businesses to foster trust and positive attitudes toward green products to encourage eco-friendly purchases. However, the study is limited by its reliance on a sample of students from a single institution, which may limit the generalizability of the findings. Future research could explore a broader demographic, including different age groups and regions, to enhance the understanding of green purchase behavior. Additionally, longitudinal studies could provide deeper insights into how environmental concerns and trust evolve over time
Assessing the Influence of Tax and Non-Tax Revenue on Budget Implementation in Sub-Saharan African countries: A Case Study of Nigeria

The population of the study consisted of sub-Saharan African countries however, only Nigeria was chosen as the sample from the populations. The data was collected from the audited financial report of the federal board of Inland Revenue covering the period of 2012 to 2022. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, and Generalized Least Squares (GLS) estimation techniques are employed to analyze data from 160 observations. From the results of the findings, the study revealed the significant positive effects of tax revenue from indirect taxes, corporate taxes, and non-tax revenue from fees and fines on budget implementation. However, tax revenue from direct taxes unexpectedly exhibits a negative effect in the model analyzing non-tax revenue. These findings underscore the importance of diversifying revenue sources and improving fiscal management practices for effective budget execution and sustainable economic development in Sub-Saharan African countries like Nigeria. The study provides valuable insights for policymakers, practitioners, and researchers in the field of public finance and budgetary management in Nigeria and other Sub-Saharan African countries. The study recommends that the government should prioritize strategies for revenue diversification, strengthening institutional capabilities in revenue mobilization and fiscal management, and conducting further research to explore the underlying factors influencing revenue dynamics and their implications for budget execution. By leveraging these insights, stakeholders can contribute to improving revenue mobilization, enhancing budget execution outcomes, and promoting sustainable development.Top of For

A Review of Sustainable Supply Chain Management Frameworks: Identifying Gaps and Outlining Future Directions
Aims: This study addresses structural inconsistencies, application gaps, and verification issues in existing Sustainable Supply Chain Management (SSCM) frameworks by developing an enhanced model named the Integrated Sustainable Supply Chain Management Framework (ISSCMF).
Study Design: Meta-analytical and design-based research.
Place and Duration of Study: The study is based on a meta-analysis of 40 peer-reviewed SSCM articles published between 2012 and 2024.
Methodology: A systematic review was conducted to examine limitations in the adaptation, validation, and implementation of SSCM frameworks. The analysis identified a lack of technological integration (e.g., IoT, data analytics), minimal use of structured methodologies, and domain-generic designs as critical shortcomings. To address these, the proposed ISSCMF incorporates structured methodologies such as DMAIC and Interpretive Structural Modeling, along with lean management and sustainability strategies, to create a more adaptable and efficient framework.
Results: The findings indicate a significant lack of standardization and digital integration across existing frameworks. Most models performed inadequately in both manufacturing and service sectors due to their generic nature. ISSCMF responds to these issues by offering a technology-driven and structurally guided approach that enhances visibility, operational efficiency, and decision-making in supply chains.
Conclusion: ISSCMF presents a robust, flexible alternative to traditional SSCM models by aligning environmental and technological elements. While the framework addresses key gaps, further empirical validation through case studies and expert feedback is required to confirm its broad applicability and effectiveness across diverse industry settings
