This study aims to examine the effects of different factors influencing on financial distress. The population of this study includes industrial companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. Samples were processed by choosing 69 companies for three years of information which leaves us to have 150 observations. The sampling technique uses purposive random sampling and data is analyzed using PLS. The results show that firm size and liquidity negatively affect the financial distress while leverage positively affects the financial distress. In addition, institutional ownership moderates liquidity towards financial distress, firm size negatively affects liquidity, and liquidity does not mediate the effect of firm size on financial distress. The conclusion of this research is that management teams can avoid financial distress if they are able to manage liquidity ratios and leverage well, both ratios must be maintained so that they would not exceed firms’ financial abilities. Companies with big amount of total assets have an advantage in competition since it is not overshadowed by the condition of financial distress and they can easily gain stakeholders’ confidence. Institutional ownership in this study seems to encourage management to take risks related to company liquidity to generate profits by utilizing long-term debt in financing its operations.

This paper examines the impact of economic and financial factors on tax revenue of Bahrain and Oman from 1990 to 2010. For this purpose, panel regression analysis is performed by considering economic and financial factors including growth domestic product (GDP), Deposit Interest Rate, Lending Interest Rate, Interest Rate Spread, Real Interest Rate, Bank Capital to Asset Ratio, Bank nonperforming loans to total gross loans, Risk premium on lending, Foreign direct investment net inflow and Cash surplus deficit. A conceptual model is developed for this purpose and the key findings are explained. The outcomes of the study explain that there was a significant relationship between Tax revenue and both economic and financial factors i.e. GDP growth, Bank capital to asset ratio, the Risk premium on lending, Foreign direct investment net inflow and Cash surplus/deficit over the period of study. The findings of the study are very much useful for the policymakers to consider which factors are affecting the tax revenues and in which direction. However, the findings of the study can be more meaningful with the addition of more economic and financial factors as well. Besides, the consideration of other Asian states will provide more evidence for the generalization of the findings. Meanwhile, this study will be a policy note on on-going tax reforms in selected Middle East countries and will be helpful for policymakers and researchers in conceptualizing the tax revenue model for them.
