Abstract

Purpose

This paper studies the role of inter-firm supply chain social capital and intra-firm social capital in enabling Corporate Entrepreneurship (CE), and also investigates the moderating and mediating effect of absorptive capacity.

Design/methodology/approach

A correlational descriptive survey research is employed for 200 firms; adopting a 13-item Likert scale obtained from Wang and Li (2016) for measuring inter-firm social capital, and an eight item Likert scale for measuring absorptive capacity. This is in addition to a nine item Likert scale obtained from De Clercq et al. (2013) to measure the intra-firm social capital, and a nine item semantic differential scale developed by Covin and Slevin (1989) for measuring the level of corporate entrepreneurship. Statistical analysis packages SPSS V.24 and AMOS V.24 were used.

Findings

Results provide evidence that structural supply chain social capital has an effect on corporate entrepreneurship; mediated by potential absorptive capacity. Additionally, the effect of relational supply chain social capital on corporate entrepreneurship is fully mediated by potential absorptive capacity. Furthermore, the effect of cognitive supply chain social capital on corporate entrepreneurship is fully mediated by potential absorptive capacity. On the other hand, results show that both intra-firm social capital and realized absorptive capacity moderate the relationship between potential absorptive capacity and corporate entrepreneurship.

Research limitations/implications

The convenience sampling technique increases the probability of selection bias. In addition, the research focused on two aspects of intra-firm social capital, namely relational and cognitive dimensions, and overlooked the structural dimension of social capital.

Practical implications

Providing managers with insights about the critical role of developing social capital among supply chain partners to facilitate the transfer and exchange of crucial knowledge necessary for product development and innovation. This is in addition to the need to capitalize on intra-collaborations and cross-functional routines to facilitate CE.

Originality/value

This study provides a required extension to the previous literature, which has not empirically modeled the role of potential absorptive capacity as means by which supply chain social capital dimensions enable CE. Also, the research identifies contingency factors that enable the effect of potential absorptive capacity on CE; namely intra-firm social capital and realized absorptive capacity.

Abstract

Purpose

Islamic law, as the fundamental framework for Islamic bank operations, emphasizes the transparency of bank performance information to the ummah (stakeholders). This study aims to prove the effect of performance disclosure (shariah compliance, social, environmental and economic performance) on profitability, customer loyalty and cost of debt.

Design/methodology/approach

This study uses 23 Islamic banks in Indonesia and Malaysia observed for 15 years (2009–2023) and analyzed using panel data regression.

Findings

We report that disclosure performance negatively impacts the cost of debt. However, by testing each performance disclosure indicator, we find that disclosure of Shariah and environmental compliance performance positively impacts customer loyalty. In addition, environmental performance disclosure negatively impacts the cost of debt. In the long term, we report that customer loyalty increases in line with the expansion of shariah, social, environmental and economic compliance performance disclosures. In addition, environmental performance disclosure has a positive effect on return on assets (ROE).

Research limitations/implications

This study is limited to Islamic banks in Indonesia and Malaysia, which are predominantly Muslim. Muslims are the primary market for Islamic banks and a major factor in determining Islamic bank legitimacy.

Practical implications

We recommend that regulators encourage banks to expand bank performance disclosure by issuing regulations and laws, such as creating rankings for Islamic banks’ disclosure performance or rewarding banks that provide broader disclosures. Thus, it will help stakeholders to access bank performance information.

Originality/value

The contribution of this study is to develop the concept of business sustainability through comprehensive performance disclosure, including Shariah compliance and social, environmental and economic performance.
