The research aims to investigate the potential impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on the digital supply chain in light of extant literature on the Decision-Oriented Information (DOI) theory and the Technology-Oriented Enterprise (TOE) framework. The research further attempts to unpack the strategic implications of AI integration in supply chain management, and its association with operational excellence and business model innovation. The study is exploratory and employs a mixed-methods approach. We develop propositions that examine the decision-making processes within AI-enhanced supply chains based on an analysis of concepts central to the DOI theory. We also employ the TOE framework to develop further propositions regarding the technological infrastructure required for AI implementation. Empirical case studies encompassing AI applications in different industries (e.g. manufacturing, healthcare, and pharmaceuticals) are presented to gain a broad perspective of the impact of AI on the digital supply chain. AI technologies inherently make supply chains more agile, transparent, and responsive. Machine Learning algorithms allow for more accurate forecasting and demand management under conditions of supply chain risk and volatility. Robotics and automation, allow for greater flexibility and efficiency in executing operations and logistics. Additionally, the successful implementation of AI is heavily contingent on the organization’s current level of technological infrastructure and its alignment with its current and future business objectives. Furthermore, the DOI theory and TOE framework may serve as a blueprint for how one could evaluate AI implementation beyond the scope of supply chain management.

The study aimed to measure the effect of using loans and equity in the capital structure on evaluating financial performance, whether in terms of profits or liquidity, in banks in the city of Al-Kharj through the descriptive analytical approach. Data was collected from the study population through a questionnaire, where 200 questionnaires were distributed, of which 187 were collected, and 183 were valid for analysis. Data were analyzed using PLS-SEM software. The validity and reliability of the data were confirmed. The results of hypothesis testing showed a weak positive effect of using equity on the financial performance (profits and liquidity) of banks in Al-Kharj city. It also turned out that there was a strong positive effect of using loans on financial performance (profits) in banks in the city of Al-Kharj, and there was no effect of using loans on financial performance (liquidity). In banks in Al-Kharj city. The researcher recommended conducting more studies on the effect of capital structure on the financial performance of banks in other regions in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to confirm the validity of the current study results.

This study investigates the relationship between Human Resource Management Practices (HRMP) and Financial Performance in the Jordanian Banking Sector, with a particular focus on the moderating effect of Organizational Culture. Employing a quantitative research approach, data was collected through surveys distributed among 353 employees in the Jordanian Banking Sector using a structured questionnaire. Random sampling was adopted as the sampling method. The findings from a partial least square structural path analysis reveal significant positive relationships between HRM practices (Employees Training, Incentives, Recruitment, Decentralization, and Job Security) and Financial Performance. Notably, Decentralization emerges as the strongest positive influencer, while Job Security exhibits a negative association with Financial Performance. Furthermore, the results from moderation analysis indicate significant interaction effects between Organizational Culture and various factors on Financial Performance in particular, the relationship with Employees Training, Incentives and Decentralization is positive toward Financial Performance that concludes a significant organizational culture increases HRM practices effects on financial results. On the other hand, allocation of job security dampens Financial Performance that suggests instead a healthy firm culture may neutralize over and above what is gained from guaranteeing employee job. On the other hand, in nonreciprocal interactions such as Organizational Culture and Recruitment does not substantially influence Firm’s financial performance; this implies that culturally organizational may play an insignificant moderating role between recruitment practices than to firm outcomes. These research findings further elaborate the intricate relation in between HRM practices, Organizational Culture and Financial Performance through Jordanian Banking Sector. This study is vital and important to both researchers for the argument that this paper has advanced above all, as well as managers in practice who should do their best at creating such a positive organizational culture which will enable HRM practices becoming more effective., thereby leading to better financial performance of banking organizations.

This study examines the effect of carbon emission disclosure and the Public Disclosure Program for Environmental Compliance (PROPER) on foreign ownership of manufacturing companies in Indonesia from 2018 to 2022 that publish annual reports or sustainability reports, registered with the Ministry of Environment and Forestry PROPER, and carbon emissions disclosure in the annual report and/or sustainability report. The analysis method uses the ordinary least squared (OLS) approach to study 28 PROPER manufacturing companies used as samples. The control variable used is return on equity (ROE), this is based on the idea that foreign investors are willing to invest in other countries to get a return on the equity or capital channeled to the company. The results show that carbon emissions disclosure has a significant positive effect on foreign ownership. Conversely, PROPER did not have any significant positive effect on foreign ownership. The results show interesting results that foreign investors are proven to consider environmental aspects in making decisions to invest in companies in Indonesia. On the other hand, the Indonesian government needs to ensure that its PROPER ratings can also provide benefits to foreign investors to attract their investment decisions.

This research aims to analyze the relationship between sustainable supply chains on financial performance, Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) financial performance and Sustainable supply chains on Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). This research uses a quantitative survey method, research data was obtained by distributing online questionnaires through media social to 390 respondents belonging to SMEs, and respondents were determined using the simple random sampling method. Data analysis used Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) Partial Least Square (PLS) with data processing tools using SmartPLS 3.0 software. The questionnaire was designed using a Likert scale of 1 to 7. The independent variable in this research is the sustainable supply chain, the mediating variable is Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the dependent variable is financial performance. The stages of data analysis are validity and reliability testing, significance or hypothesis testing, and mediation influence testing. The results of data analysis show that the Sustainable supply chain has a positive and significant relationship to financial performance, Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) have a positive and significant relationship to financial performance and the Sustainable supply chain has a positive and significant relationship to Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). To improve the financial performance of SMEs, they must implement a sustainable supply chain in their supply chain, namely from supplier to customer. To improve the financial performance of SMEs, they must implement Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in their management system. Implementing sustainability in the supply chain is important to increase operational efficiency and reduce negative impacts on the environment and society.
