This study studies the influence of omnichannel service benefits in customer product purchasing decisions and investigates the omnichannel adoption behavior of customers in fashion apparel retail in Bali. Data collection is completed twice in stages I and II, covering fifteen to thirty days (15-30). The population in this study is a group of Balinese customers with high adaptation to technology. The maximum sample in this study is 210 respondents. The study findings reveal that their path coefficient values supported some hypotheses while some others were not supported. The research findings indicate that the variables of service integration and perceived effectiveness cannot be proposed to expand the UTAUT 2 model. The technology familiarity variable can be the variable proposed to expand the UTAUT 2 model. This study’s findings confirm the inconsistent relationship between the effect of intention to purchase apparel products on product purchase behavior that could be overcome by studying behavioral intention to use behavior using a longitudinal method. Implications of research through the data collection method involves two stages of research by collecting the same sample group, which is declared to be able to observe changes in customer behavior.

The aim of this paper is to explore the potential correlation among operational risk and the profitability of Islamic banks in the MENA region. Different measures for profitability were relied upon in previous studies, however, in this article depend on return on assets and return on equity to measure profitability, and efficiency ratio calculated by operating expenses to total assets to measure operational risk. To achieve this objective, the sample comprises 20 Islamic banks from 12 MENA countries, creating panel data for a period of ten years from 2011 to 2020. The analysis was conducted using fixed effect models. The study will analyze and interpret the findings from two financial performance measures, namely, ROA and ROE to get insights into the banks' overall financial situation and their ability to generate profits from their assets and equity. Using one type of operational risk measured by (efficiency ratio) as an independent variable, along with profitability measures by (ROA and ROE) as dependent variables. These measures had a significant negative impact by the operational risk measured by (efficiency ratio). This means when the operational risk increases, this indicates that the management is not controlling the operations of the bank in the best way and inability or failure of the bank's management to effectively utilize the available resources and assets to generate satisfactory profits. This leads to an increase in the operating expenses and hence a decrease in profitability measures.
