Purpose : Covid19 epidemic has culminated in societal and worldwide disparities and impaled benefits in ESG investment. The key objective of this study is to analyze the cointegration and risk spillovers pre and during Covid19 between SRI, Islamic, and Conventional stocks. Design/ Methodology/approach : We include the dataset of nine variables of SRI, Islamic, and conventional indices and find the cointegration and spill-over effects with the help of DCC for the time duration of 2018 to 2022. Findings : The outcomes show the existence of cointegration among SRI, Islamic, and conventional indices in Pre Covid19 and absence during Covid19, and having co-movements with common connections. Before the pandemic, DCC was inclined to spear, but during the pandemic, a diverse form appears at the same time, and extra variability is found in conditional covariance. The outcomes show that SRI gives a higher return with lower risk as compared to Islamic and conventional indices.

Banking industry is the backbone of any economy. No economy can work properly without sound banking system. Accessibility of funds is an important dimension that holds the key to success i.e. whether the funds are easily available to the bottom of pyramid in an economy or not. Most of the rural beneficiaries face difficulties in accessing the finance in formal sector (Banking sector) and thus fall prey to exorbitant interest rates of informal sector (Moneylenders), depriving them from the benefits of various schemes and initiatives of the government. Various parameters related to access of funds such as time taken at bank, number of times a bank is approached, delay in sanctioning, pre visits, post visits, nature of staff, waiting time, sufficiency of loan, level of satisfaction were evaluatedin this research paper by taking a sample of Priority Sector Lending beneficiaries. It was found that different categories of beneficiaries had different set of needs related to accessibility which needs to be catered accordingly.

The purpose of this research is to investigate whether there is a significant relationship between proactive workplace behaviors and transformational leadership behavior among private sector employees. If there is a meaningful relationship, the study aims to determine the direction and level of the impact of perceived transformational leadership behavior on proactive workplace behaviors. To achieve this objective, data was collected through face-to-face surveys from employees working in the workshops of Toyota, Nissan, and Peugeot companies operating in the automotive sector in Turkey. Structural equation modeling was employed to test the proposed hypotheses. Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM), a variance-based structural equation modeling method, was used to analyze the relationship between the factors included in the research model. The results of the analysis revealed a high and significant relationship between transformational leadership behavior and proactive workplace behaviors. Furthermore, it was found that transformational leadership behavior significantly and positively influenced the sub-dimensions of proactive workplace behaviors, including voice, taking charge, problem prevention, and individual innovation factors.

The incorporation of digital technologies into all aspects of life is a prominent subject of scientific discussion. Many researchers consider digitalization as a crucial factor in socio-economic advancement, although there is still much to be explored on this topic. The unequal progress of spatial development has a detrimental effect on the digitalization levels of different countries, including Ukraine, which highlights the need for the country to establish strategies for implementing digital innovations to promote its economic growth. Given the significance of this research topic, the objective of this study is to determine the essence and potential impact of digitization and digitalization on Ukraine's economic development. To achieve this goal, it is imperative to define the concept of digitalization in the economy, assess statistical data on innovation development and prospects in Ukraine, identify priority areas for incorporating digital tools into the Ukrainian economy, and outline possibilities for further economic development in light of digitalization trends. Analytical, synthetic, systematic, and generalization methods were utilized to achieve this goal. By conducting this research, we have gained a comprehensive understanding of the intricacies of digitalization. Additionally, we have critically analyzed the existing state of digital development within the Ukrainian economy, while also pinpointing potential avenues for future growth. These opportunities arise from the deliberate incorporation of digital tools within Ukraine's economic and industrial sectors.

The present study examines the interdependence among selected sustainable and conventional indices of the Indian economy. Econometric toolshave been utilised to explore the connection between sustainability and conventional indices of India.Findings from the analysis show a correlation between sustainable indices and traditional indices in the Indian economy. Still, the two stock market indices have not been integrated over the extended period, and both operate autonomously. In addition, no causality exists, so the current trend of one index can't be predicted by the past trend of another stock market price series. Based on findings, this study suggests that investment managers use sustainability indices for portfolio diversification, which are also helpful for regulators and policymakers.

Over the past two decades, the global market for electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) has experienced enormous expansion, and it is predicted that this growth will continue in the years to come. The fact that these products are winding up in landfills and recycling facilities presents lawmakers with a new hazard. To identify e-waste (Electronic waste) management strategies, this paper will conduct a systematic review of literature. The study uses the SALSA (Search, Appraisal, Synthesis, and Analysis) and PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses)framework for the systematic review of literature along with VOS viewer software which helps in creating a map based on text and bibliographic data and NVivo for creating a word cloud. Under the SALSA framework, SLR (Systematic Literature Review)is carried out in 4 steps.While in PRISMAstudies are evaluated at four levels.The research paper concludes that rules and regulations, take-back programs, EPR (Extended Producer Responsibility), reuse, repair, recycle, reducing, green computing, and registered e-waste collectors as the efficient strategies for the management of e-waste, and the same is represented through a model. This paper is used for future research.
