With the help of DEA-Malmquist index method, this paper evaluated the efficiency of the agricultural industrialization＇s financial supports, made a deep study of its influencing factors, which have an extremely important influence on the perfect agricultural industrialization＇s development.展开更多

It is not difficult to find that the scope and scale of RMB settlement for cross-border trade are gradually expanding under the impetus of financial development and other important factors. Therefore, this paper sorts out the relevant theoretical basis and analyzes the research status quo. On this basis, the paper selects the relevant data from 2016 to 2021 to measure the financial development from three aspects of scale, structure and efficiency. Under the condition of controlling the inflation rate, trade scale and RMB exchange rate, the paper conducts quantitative regression analysis on RMB settlement of cross-border trade, which proves that the financial development has a significant positive effect on RMB settlement of cross-border trade, and puts forward relevant policy recommendations.展开更多

This study aims to assess the framework’s impact on clinical outcomes, financial oversight, staff well-being, and risk management. A mixed-methods approach was employed, combining quantitative data—including paired t-tests, regression analysis, and Chi-square tests—with qualitative insights from semi-structured interviews and focus groups. Quantitative data were collected across 10 EAPs, evaluating 100 clients using the PHQ-9 and GAD-7 scales for depression and anxiety, respectively, and 50 staff members using the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI). Financial data included budget allocation efficiency and cost-effectiveness metrics. Risk management was assessed through safeguarding incidents and incident reporting time. Results revealed significant improvements across all key domains: client mental health outcomes (PHQ-9 and GAD-7 scores significantly reduced, p [1] offers a comprehensive, evidence-based tool for improving service quality, financial efficiency, and clinician support in psychological services.展开更多

Our main finding is that, although local financial development and FDI each individually tended to improve the efficiency of local capital allocation during the sample period, they tended to compete and crowd out each other＇s effect, so that one impaired the individual function of the other. In particular, there exists a threshold value for local financial development, above which an increase in FDI reduces the efficiency of local capital allocation, rather than improve it. On the other hand, there exists a threshold value for FDI, above which further development in the local financial system lowers the efficiency of local capital allocation, rather than increase it. Our estimations suggest that the levels of FDI and local financial development in some relatively more developed Chinese regions have already surpassed such threshold values. We provide some interpretations of our findings and we discuss potential policy implications.展开更多
