Environmental innovation and green low-carbon transitions: The moderating role of green regulatory pressure
Tingqian Pu
Environmental innovation is widely recognized as a key driver of sustainability, reducing greenhouse gas emissions and enhancing resource efficiency. However, the mechanisms through which it contributes to green low-carbon transitions remain underexplored, particularly in the context of varying regulatory environments. This study examines the relationship between environmental innovation and green low-carbon transitions, focusing on the moderating role of green regulátory pressure. Using panel…DOI (& full text): doi.org/10.15240/tul/001/2025-5-021

Changing times, changing drives: Entrepreneurial motivation across generations
Dominik Salat, Jarmila Duhacek Sebestova
Entrepreneurs from generation to generation play a significant role in the business environment. Understanding this issue, especially by policymakers, is crucial for development. Misunderstanding or lack of interest often leads to inaction or incorrect decisions, creating barriers for current and potential entrepreneurs. Each generation evolves in its own era, and over time, each will fade and be replaced by a new, undefined generation. Policymakers would be interested in understanding these…DOI (& full text): doi.org/10.15240/tul/001/2025-5-025

Explainable credit risk modeling with hybrid tabular deep learning and adaptive feature routing
R. John Martin, Ahmad Khawaji, S. Sujatha
Well defined and transparent credit risk evaluation continues to be a fundamental issue in financial decision-making, particularly when dealing with intricate borrower profiles in the forms of organized tabular data. While traditional machine learning models often lack interpretability for predictive accuracy, recent deep learning approaches struggle to generalize across such data formats. We propose an innovative hybrid Tabular Deep Learning system that combines feature tokenizer transformer …DOI (& full text): doi.org/10.15240/tul/001/2026-5-005

Strategic intangibles in small family firms: The mediating role of innovativeness in resource-constrained environments
Syed Amjad Hussain, Salman Iqbal, Vladimir Bures, Abdul Waheed, Alzbeta Docekalova, Marek Zanker
This study addresses a critical gap in the literature by examining how family-based brand identity and entrepreneurial orientation (specifically, proactiveness and risk taking) influence the performance of small family firms operating in emerging markets. Grounded in the resource-based view (RBV), these constructs are conceptualized as strategic intangible resources that underpin competitive advantage. A cross-sectional survey of 460 privately held small family firms in Pakistan was conducted,…DOI (& full text): doi.org/10.15240/tul/001/2026-2-009

Forecasting major currency exchange rates using long short-term memory networks: Evidence from multi-currency time series analysis
Shahryar Ghorbani, Figen Yildirim, Ali Altug Bicer, Reza Rostamzadeh, Jonas Saparauskas
Exchange-rate dynamics are non-linear and volatile, which challenges conventional forecasting approaches. This study evaluates a reproducible long short-term memory (LSTM) framework for daily EUR/USD, GBP/USD, USD/TRY, and USD/JPY over 1 January 2010 to 31 December 2021. The contribution is twofold: (i) a fully specified and deployment-oriented LSTM protocol (architecture, preprocessing, and leakage-safe validation) suitable for applied forecasting; and (ii) a time-series-appropriate evaluation…DOI (& full text): doi.org/10.15240/tul/001/2026-2-014

Do investors really care about sustainability? Evidence from European companies on the relationship between ESG performance and stock liquidity
Sebnem Yasar, Hakan Ozkaya
This study examines the impact of corporate environmental, social and governance (ESG) performance on capital market efficiency, namely stock liquidity. Drawing on a dataset of 1,693 publicly traded firms across 23 European stock exchanges between 2002 and 2022, we investigate whether companies with stronger ESG credentials benefit from more liquid equity markets. Our results provide strong evidence that ESG performance has a significant positive effect on stock liquidity. This suggests that a…DOI (& full text): doi.org/10.15240/tul/001/2026-2-012

Explaining cross-country differences in firms’ innovation outcomes: The role of corruption, labor regulation, productivity and gender in the EU-27
Nikola Soukupova, Anna Nemcova
Innovation outcomes are shaped by both institutional conditions and firms’ internal capabilities, yet prior research often examines these dimensions separately and rarely distinguishes between different types of innovation. This limits understanding of how external barriers and organizational resources jointly influence incremental versus market-novel innovation. To address this gap, the aim of this paper is to examine how institutional constraints, specifically perceived corruption and…DOI (& full text): doi.org/10.15240/tul/001/2026-2-010

Green innovation and firm performance in China: Empirical insights from A-share listed manufacturers
Ganglong Wu, Syed Ahmed Salman, Baoting Huang, Tengkun Wang
As environmental challenges intensify globally, green innovation has become a strategic imperative for firms seeking to balance ecological responsibility with sustained competitiveness. We examine whether green innovation improves firm performance in China’s manufacturing sector. Using panel data on 1,033 A-share manufacturers (2014–2023; 10,330 firm-years), we estimate two-way fixed-effects models (firm and year fixed effects (FE)) with cluster-robust standard errors (SE). Green innovation is…DOI (& full text): doi.org/10.15240/tul/001/2026-2-008

Exploring the relationship between spatial factors and poverty in Indonesia based on macroeconomics: A look at Java Island
Thomas Ola Langoday
Poverty is not only a problem within a region but also a problem that affects multiple regions. The current efforts to alleviate poverty have primarily focused on the household and community level, often neglecting the crucial role that spatial dimensions play in understanding poverty dynamics. The theory of the vicious circle of poverty still needs attention from the whole community and the government, because Indonesia is committed to alleviating poverty. This study examines the significance…DOI (& full text): doi.org/10.15240/tul/001/2026-2-003
