The behavior of the Taylor rule in the presence of sovereign Sukuks based on the growth rate of the economy: An analysis by DSGE modelling
Investment Management and Financial Innovations Volume 20, 2023 Issue #1 pp. 304-316
Views: 520 Downloads: 219 TO CITE АНОТАЦІЯThe aim of this paper is to study the behavior of the Taylor rule in the presence of Sukuks. The New Keynesian model of Gali (2008)/Chapter 3 is used, due to its simplicity and small size. Nevertheless, such a model is suitable for examining the implications of monetary policy in the presence of sovereign Sukuks. The growth rate is used as the rate of return on sovereign Sukuks, which is closest to the profit and loss sharing approach, and is compared to the Gali’s baseline model. The results show that the introduction of sovereign Sukuks mitigates inflation and output gap shocks, but also limits the scope of the Taylor rule. Thus, an increase in the interest rate is offset by a flight of capital from sovereign Sukuks to treasury bonds, while a decrease in the interest rate leads to a flight from treasury bonds to sovereign Sukuks. In the extreme, if the preference for Sukuks is largely dominant, the Taylor rule tends to be obsolete, and vice versa.

Demand trade-off between PLSs and markups in the presence of a conventional banking relationship: The case of Moroccan companies
Banks and Bank Systems Volume 18, 2023 Issue #2 pp. 189-201
Views: 395 Downloads: 175 TO CITE АНОТАЦІЯTheoretical explanations based on information asymmetry constitute the dominant paradigm of the near disappearance of PLSs (profit and loss sharing). This assumption implicitly implies a hypothesis on the power of contractual choice exclusively monopolized by Islamic banks. The theoretical positioning in this study to explain the arbitrage between PLSs and markups is based on a lack of demand. In this sense, this paper attempts to verify the demand trade-off of Moroccan companies between PLSs and markups. A logistic regression was used to establish several findings. The evidence suggests that past banking relationships with conventional banks and debt maturity both favor the commercialization of markups. On the other hand, financial quality of firms has no direct impact on the choice between PLSs and markups. This assertion implies that it is incorrect to assume that sole entrepreneurs undertaking high-risk projects choose to be funded by PLSs. Combining that with the fact that companies that agree to be funded by PLSs agree to share profits, private information and decision-making power, it can be said that PLSs can have a good chance of thriving in Morocco if Islamic banks provide a favorable climate for their marketing.

Toward greener supply chains: Analysis of the determining factors
Anass Touil , Khalid Ayad , Nabil El Hamidi , Aziz Babounia doi: http://dx.doi.org/10.21511/ee.14(2).2023.09Environmental Economics Volume 14, 2023 Issue #2 pp. 114-126
Views: 206 Downloads: 55 TO CITE АНОТАЦІЯThe green supply chain (GSC) has become essential for companies seeking to improve their environmental performance and meet the requirements of sustainable development. This concept is particularly relevant in an era of globalization and growing environmental awareness. The study used a Probit regression method to analyze data collected from Moroccan SMEs. It aimed to examine the impact of different factors, such as economic and energy efficiency, government incentives, stakeholder pressure, managerial age, company size, and profitability, on the adoption of GSC practices. The results showed that economic and energy efficiency, as well as stakeholder pressure, are significant factors positively influencing the adoption of GSCs. When combined with stakeholder pressure, government incentives also have a positive impact. The age of the executive has a negative influence on the adoption of GSC, indicating that younger executives are more likely to adopt these practices. Company size showed no significant impact, while profitability had a positive impact with the adoption of a GSC.

Does behavioral biases matter in SMEs' borrowing decisions? Insights from Morocco
Khalid Ayad , Anass Touil , Nabil El Hamidi , Khaoula Dobli Bennani doi: http://dx.doi.org/10.21511/bbs.19(1).2024.15Banks and Bank Systems Volume 19, 2024 Issue #1 pp. 170-182
Views: 296 Downloads: 101 TO CITE АНОТАЦІЯBank financing decisions by small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are crucial to their growth and survival, particularly in emerging economies such as Morocco. This study aims to assess the impact of behavioral biases on these decisions, an area little explored in the existing financial literature. The main objective is to analyze how behavioral biases such as overconfidence, risk aversion, confirmation bias, anchoring, and managerial myopia biases influence bank financing decisions of Moroccan SMEs. The approach adopted is quantitative and uses robust least squares regression to analyze data collected from 167 Moroccan SMEs. The results reveal that overconfidence and anchoring have a significant positive impact on the propensity to take out bank loans, while risk aversion and confirmation bias have a negative effect. Managerial myopia had no significant influence. Control variables such as past financial performance, the length of the banking relationship, and lower risk also positively influence the financing decision.

How does adopting sustainable supply chain quality management improve corporate financial performance? A transaction cost perspective
Investment Management and Financial Innovations Volume 21, 2024 Issue #3 pp. 170-186
Views: 191 Downloads: 48 TO CITE АНОТАЦІЯThis article examines the impact of adopting SSCQM on the financial performance of companies, based on transaction theory. The main objective of this study is to assess how reducing transactional costs through SSCQM, or within its framework, can improve the financial performance of Moroccan companies. The methodology is based on quantitative analysis, using an econometric model (GLM-Gamma) to test the association between SSCQM adoption and financial performance. The results of the study show that various SSCQM-related practices positively affect companies’ financial performance. Managing sourcing costs significantly improves profit margins. Contracts focusing on quality and sustainability, and minimizing the risk of non-compliance, also boost financial performance. However, the ability to adapt and respond to regulatory changes shows no significant impact. Optimizing production processes and investing in green technologies are proving to be profitable strategies, with significant improvements in financial performance. Customer engagement and transparency and traceability of operations also have a positive impact. These results suggest that SSCQM practices, such as the adoption of green technologies and transparency policies, are beneficial for companies’ financial performance. The originality of the study lies in its approach, which links transaction theory to sustainable supply chain management, an angle little explored in existing literature. The study confirms that SSCQM is an effective strategy for improving corporate financial health by minimizing transactional costs. It recommends integrating SSCQM into companies’ management strategies to boost their competitiveness, financial performance and sustainability.
