Online shopping satisfaction hinges on two major factors: “fairness and security.” Customers want fair pricing, transparent processes, and respectful treatment—what researchers call distributive, procedural, and interactional “justice.”

This study aims to investigate the impact of monetary policy on firms' carbon emissions. The primary focus is on the effect of interest rates on the carbon footprint of companies. The results show that there is a positive relationship between interest rates and carbon emissions indicating that in the face of increasing interest rates, companies are more likely to choose short-term financial stability above long-term sustainability objectives. This positive relationship is less prevalent following the Paris Agreement suggesting that policymakers should continue to strengthen global climate initiatives as a pressure for companies to invest in green activities.

Additional evidence suggests that the impact of interest rates on carbon emissions is particularly noticeable in situations characterized by elevated levels of economic and policy uncertainty, weak corporate governance quality, and poor investor protection.

The purpose of our study is to examine how the sanctions influence macro talent management. To do so, we review the macro talent management (MTM) framework alongside the literature on sanctions. Using the case of Russia we have collected data from 419 media publications discussing the effects of sanctions and analyzed them using critical discourse analysis. Our findings highlight the predominantly negative nature of the sanctions’ impact on MTM ecosystems, theoretically yielding closer links between the sanctions and the MTM framework, and human capital more specifically.

Financial assets are monetary instruments that can be traded in financial markets, such as stocks, bonds, and mutual funds. They allow investors to generate income or capital appreciation. Unlike physical assets, financial assets derive their value from contractual claims.

A financial market is a marketplace where financial assets like stocks, bonds, and commodities are traded. These markets help businesses and governments raise capital and enable the efficient allocation of financial resources. Financial markets are vital for economic growth.

Fundamental analysis involves assessing a stock’s intrinsic value by reviewing financial statements, industry trends, and economic factors. It helps investors determine whether a stock is undervalued or overvalued, guiding their investment decisions.

Technical analysis involves studying historical price movements and trading volumes to predict future trends in financial assets. It relies on charts and technical indicators and does not consider the intrinsic value of a company.

Risk in investing refers to the chance that actual returns may differ from expected ones, possibly leading to a loss of capital. High-risk investments often offer higher potential returns but are more volatile. Diversification is a key method for managing risk by spreading investments across different asset classes.

An investment is the allocation of resources, typically money, with the goal of generating returns or profit. Investments can take many forms, such as stocks, bonds, or real estate. While they inherently carry risk, smart strategies and diversification can help mitigate potential losses and increase gains.

We disaggregate the notion of ‘politics of internationalization’ through identification of a set of distinct dimensions in which politics affect firm internationalization.

We find that EMNE strategies are becoming more entangled with those of governments, political parties, lobbyists, and other formal and informal institutions. In emerging economies, the state often plays a relatively active role in the economy, and EMNE strategies are more conditioned by politics, policies, and non-market considerations.

We argue that the ability to leverage politics is becoming more important for the competitive advantage of EMNEs, and firms are increasingly engaging in political activities through nonmarket strategies.
