Abstract: L'objectif de cet article est d'identifier les déterminants de l'adoption des bonnes pratiques culturales de la noix de cajou. Les résultats de l'estimation du modèle logit multinomial non ordonné montrent que les variables sociales telles que la localisation et le niveau d'éducation (primaire, lycée et autre formation) favorisent l'adoption des bonnes pratiques de la noix de cajou avant la récolte. Par contre, l'adoption de certaines bonnes pratiques culturales au niveau de la noix de cajou diminue avec l'âge du chef d'exploitant ainsi que la taille du ménage............

| Title | : | Risk Management in Islamic Banking |
| Country | : | Iraq |
| Authors | : | Dr. Ghassan Farouk Ghandour |

: | 10.9790/5933-0803012739 |
Abstract: The risk management system in Islamic institutions need to be able to address the unique characteristics and attributes associated with Islamic financing operations involving financial contracts and instruments which may give rise to other risks besides credit risk. The risk management infrastructure needs to be in place to facilitate the identification, measurement, monitoring and control of all inherent risks present in all the various types of financing so that the specific risks involved may be 'unbundled'. The complexities of the respective risks in the Islamic financial instruments therefore need to be fully explored and quantified to provide for their effective assessment and management.

Abstract: Tourism plays a major role for many countries' economies; however, for countries with developing economies, the challenge is simply establishing a tourism industry. In order to have a prosperous tourism industry, investment, stability, and infrastructure are key. The paradox lies in the fact that financial capital is necessary to grow tourism, and in an economy where funding is scarce, the ability to grow is limited.

Abstract: Treasury management has been and still is a global concern not only in formal corporate world but also in informal financial sector. In Financial institutions, treasury management is about the aspect of risk management by measuring it, controlling it, diversifying it and hedging it. Risk taking is the heart of every financial institution and it is the conscious engagement in risk that constitutes the economic value of financial intermediation. Treasury risk management therefore refers to the process of identifying a suitable trade-off between risks and return in order to maximize the existing opportunities in a society's operational environment...........

Abstract: Globalization means economic globalization of economy of a country and it exert pressure on the government to become more publicly accountable, competitive and responsive to citizens. The UN document defines globalization as "increased and intensified flows between countries". These flows are of goods, services, capital, ideas, information and people, which produce national cross-border integration of a number of economic, social and cultural activities. The primary objective of liberalization is to free from the restrictions on production, expansion and following of rigid rules and regulations. This paper attempts to examine the impact of globalization on the Indian economy and provide a framework for administration to circumvent the overbearing effect of globalization in their efforts towards industrialization, economic growth and development. The study is based on primary as well as on secondary data and it is of descriptive type.

Abstract: All production and many consumption activities involve energy as an essential input. It is a critical source of economic growth, industrialization, and urbanization. For the proper functioning of an economy, energy is necessary and vital. When analysing the existing literature regarding the causal nexus between economic growth and energy consumption, there exist four different hypotheses, such as growth hypothesis, conservation hypothesis, feedback hypothesis, and neutral hypothesis. Finding the relationship between these two variables is essential in order to formulate energy-efficient policies according to the needs of the nation that will ultimately lead to economic growth. The results of the literature prove that in order to help the government to come up with a stable energy policy, causal nexus should analyse and the limitations which are existing in the present studies should be solved.
