La regulación del coeficiente de recursos propios en las Cajas de Ahorros españolas ¿Convergencia o efectividad?
2000
Victor.E.Barrios@uv.es En las dos últimas décadas se ha producido un intenso proceso de capitalización de las cajas de ahorros españolas que ha coincidido, desde 1985, con un endurecimiento de la legislación bancaria de control de recursos propios. En este marco de referencia cabe preguntarse si esta regulación indujo a estas entidades a incrementar sus cocientes de capital, hasta el punto de que éstos alcanzasen niveles superiores a los que habrían mantenido en caso de no haber existido la misma. Con ese objetivo, en este trabajo se analiza la efectividad de la regulación de capital proponiendo, para ello, diversos métodos empíricos basados en el estudio del proceso de convergencia de los …
Structure and determinants of production in Textile-Clothing-Leather-Skins (TCLS) craft industry in Benin: a study based on investigations of the val…
2014
Lieu et date de la conférence modifiées. Prétoria 31Juillet au 2 Août 2014 (Au lieu de Kigali -Rwanda); International audience; Sustainable economic growth in Benin requires a better understand of the informalsector, which contributes to two-thirds of GDP. Particularly, craft industry and TCLSsubsector is one of informal activity sector to be handled. The objectives of this work wereto identify the structure and factors that determine the production in TCLS craft industry.This study was based on a survey carried out in February 2011 on value creationdata in craft industry of TCLS in Benin. Lack of data induced by informal activities wascircumvented using an imputation method. A Multiple Cor…
Vernacular budgeting and accounting routines – a longitudinal constructive case study
2022
PurposeThis case study aims to report a longitudinal analysis of the development and use of local “vernacular” accounting practice and a digital rolling-forecast system known as TeamBudget in a public sector organization.Design/methodology/approachThe study employs the constructive research approach which utilizes participative observation in the development of TeamBudget over the 15 years since 2004. The empirical data utilized includes eight interviews and documentary data for the system created.FindingsThe study demonstrates how the actions of employees responsible for developing a locally relevant financial planning system, TeamBudget, facilitated the emergence of new accounting routine…
Ecosystem Architecture Management in the Public Sector : From Problems to Solutions
2019
Based on our research concerning enterprise architecture (EA) in the Finnish public sector, we discuss how EA concept and tool need to be developed to support government business ecosystem and organization design. Our research context indicates, beyond a federal government or a state one, that even a single municipality, like a city concern, can be perceived as an ecosystem of its sectoral domains, subsidiaries and such. We outline a vision of an overall ontology-based, shared EA repository for the-whole-of-government current state descriptions and specify the central design principles and functional requirements for such a system, illustrating some potential use cases of it. Based on inter…
Determinantes de la divulgación de información sobre sostenibilidad en los gobiernos locales de Latinoamérica
2022
This paper analyses the socioeconomic factors that influence the disclosure of sustainability information on 99 local government websites in 2018 in countries that make up the Pacific Alliance (PA) in Latin America, associated with internal and external demands that public entities have for accountability in social and environmental issues. We use as methodology a content analysis of the sustainability information disclosed by local entities on their websites and a regression of Ordinary Least Squares (OLS). This article shows empirical evidence that the size, budget capacity and the economic level of the municipality are factors associated with the sustainability disclosure on websites due…
The 9-item Bergen Burnout Inventory: Factorial Validity Across Organizations and Measurements of Longitudinal Data
2013
The present study tested the factorial validity of the 9-item Bergen Burnout Inventory (BBI-9) 1) . The BBI-9 is comprised of three core dimensions: (1) exhaustion at work; (2) cynicism toward the meaning of work; and (3) sense of inadequacy at work. The study further investigated whether the three-factor structure of the BBI-9 remains the same across different organizations (group invariance) and measurement time points (time invariance). The factorial group invariance was tested using a cross-sectional design with data pertaining to managers (n=742), and employees working in a bank (n=162), an engineering office (n=236), a public sector organization divided into three service areas: admin…
Life Cycle Assessment of organic apple supply chain in the North of Italy.
2015
The goal of the study is the assessment of the energy and environmental impacts of 1 ton of organic apples cultivated in the North of Italy, by applying the Life Cycle Assessment methodology. The authors examined the supply chain of apples, by including the supply of raw materials and energy sources, and the farming step. In addition, an assessment of apple distribution to the final users was made. The results show that a relevant share of the total impacts is caused by the transport to the final users, assuming that the product is distributed on local, national and international markets. A detailed analysis of the farming step shows that a significant share in the overall energy and enviro…
La multifuncionalidad del mundo rural
2002
En este artículo se describen las bases conceptuales de la multifuncionalidad de la agricultura, y se analiza hasta qué punto pueden servir para justificar la intervención pública en apoyo del sector. A continuación, se destacan algunos aspectos concretos que tienen que ver con la multifuncionalidad en las áreas relacionadas con la biodiversidad, el desarrollo rural y la seguridad alimentaria para, finalmente, contemplar las posibilidades que ofrecen las actuales normas de la Organización Mundial del Comercio (OMC) a la hora de tener en cuenta las denominadas «preocupaciones no comerciales» (non-trade concerns) y, entre ellas, las relacionadas con la multifuncionalidad. ereig@uv.es
La economia social en la Comunitat Valenciana: regulación y políticas públicas
2019
El reconocimiento y fomento de la economía social es una tarea de interés general que deben desarrollar los poderes públicos, como ordena la Ley 5/2011 de Economía Social, lo que impele también a la Generalitat Valenciana. El libro que el lector tiene en sus manos se compone de tres partes. En la primera se analiza la experiencia de otras Comunidades Autónomas que han realizado en los últimos años avances en la materia, tanto en la regulación de la economía social como en la activación de políticas de apoyo a la economía social. Estas experiencias constituyen un referente para la realidad de la Comunitat Valenciana, Comunidad que, si bien en 2006 modi- có su Estatuto de Autonomía para asumi…
NEUTRINO SPECTRUM IN NONSUPERSYMMETRIC SO(10)
1996
We present a predictive scheme for fermion masses and mixings inspired by nonsupersymmetric SO(10) in which the hierarchy problem is resolved without fine tuning the Yukawa couplings. This calls for a nonminimal Higgs sector which we exploit in deriving the expressions for the mass matrices. To keep the predictivity of the model under control we limit the structure of the mass matrices by imposing U(1) symmetries. A very predictive neutrino spectrum is then obtained.
