Meanwhile, financial development (FDV) and corruption have been considered a determinant of FDI. Therefore, this study aims to assess the effect of FDV and corruption on FDI in developing countries. In addition, this study explores the combined impact of FDV and corruption on FDI. Furthermore, the data for 108 developing countries were collected from the World Development Indicators (WDI) of the World Bank from 1993 to 2017. The results showed that FDV has a positive and significant effect on FDI, while corruption does not have a statistically significant impact. This demonstrates that FDV has contributed to the growth of foreign investment and the important sources of financing for developing countries. However, the interaction between FDV and corruption has a negative effect on FDI. This implies that FDV followed by an increase in corruption tends to reduce FDI inflows. These results encourage policymakers to address issues regarding the joint impact of FDV and corruption on FDI in developing countries.

Saida Zainurossalamia ZA , Dwi Martiyanti , Gusti Noorlitaria Achmad , Dadang Lesmana , Rizky Yudaruddin doi: http://dx.doi.org/10.21511/im.18(4).2022.02After restrictions on community activities caused by the COVID-19 pandemic were lifted, numerous businesses, including restaurants and cafes, have already resumed normal operations. Competition is also unavoidable. Thus, companies should motivate their managers to develop various operational strategies to increase customer satisfaction. This study aims to analyze the relationship between customer satisfaction and operational management activities, including layout, decoration, location, and cleanliness. In addition, it examines human resource management, food quality, and atmosphere as mediating variables. Data were obtained using an online questionnaire conducted between June and December 2021. A total of 1,068 clients of cafes and restaurants were selected as the participants using purposive random sampling. Data were evaluated using variance-based structural equation modeling. The results showed that operational management activities promote cafes and restaurants (p-value = 0.000). Furthermore, this study indicates the role of infrastructure elements, specifically human resource management, atmosphere, and food quality, as moderating variables on customer satisfaction (p-value = 0.000). Overall, the findings of this empirical study provide a theoretical contribution by emphasizing cafe and restaurant operational strategies that enhance customer satisfaction.

Surahman , Dadang Lesmana , Dewi Naprida , Bagus Rai Wibowo , Rizky Yudaruddin doi: http://dx.doi.org/10.21511/im.19(4).2023.18Innovative Marketing Volume 19, 2023 Issue #4 pp. 220-233
Views: 593 Downloads: 167 TO CITE АНОТАЦІЯThe study aims to analyze how factors such as environmental attitude, subjective norms, perceived behavioral control, and environmental knowledge impact the willingness of Generation Z tourists in Indonesia to make green or environmentally friendly purchases. It also explores the moderating role of environmental knowledge in the relationship between environmental attitude and green purchase intentions. The analysis focuses on Generation Z respondents, totaling 543 individuals. The paper employs the structural equation modeling (SEM) method. The results show that when considered individually, consumer behavior, encompassing environmental attitude, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control, exerts a significantly positive impact on green purchase intentions. These results suggest that tourists’ attitudes toward the environment, influence from family or friends, and the ability to control their actions are pivotal in fostering green purchase intentions while traveling. Furthermore, the study demonstrates a substantial positive correlation between environmental knowledge and tourists’ green purchase intentions. Additionally, environmental knowledge moderates environmental attitude, amplifying its positive effect on tourists’ green purchase intentions. This highlights the vital role of environmental knowledge, which not only stimulates green purchase intentions but also motivates tourists to adopt pro-environmental behavior by opting for eco-friendly products.
