Unlike industries with stable workforce deployments, logistics organizations must continuously reconcile fluctuating demand patterns, geographically distributed employees, regulatory compliance requirements, and the real-time coordination demands of fleet operations. Within this context, the HR system functions not merely as an administrative repository but as an active coordination infrastructure linking three foundational stakeholder groups: employees (drivers, warehouse staff, and field personnel), managers (supervisors, department heads, and operations coordinators), and dispatchers (logistics coordinators responsible for route assignment and fleet oversight). This study examines the structural and functional dimensions of HR systems within logistics companies, with a particular focus on the coordination mechanisms among these three role groups. Using a convergent parallel mixed-methods research design, this paper draws on survey data (n = 200) collected across three mid-to-large logistics firms operating in Indonesia, supplemented by semi-structured interviews (n = 18) with purposively selected participants from each role cluster. The survey instrument assessed five dimensions: HR system usability, coordination efficiency, communication clarity, conflict resolution speed, and overall satisfaction. Interview data were analyzed through reflexive thematic analysis to surface experiential patterns that quantitative measures could not capture. Results indicate that integrated digital HR platforms significantly reduce coordination latency, improve scheduling accuracy, and enhance inter-role communication transparency when system integration depth is high. Managers reported the highest satisfaction across all measured dimensions (overall mean: 4.1/5), while employees demonstrated the lowest scores, particularly on conflict resolution speed (3.2/5) and system adoption (3.1/5). Dispatchers, despite holding the highest operational system access, reported moderate satisfaction, with coordination efficiency (4.0/5) constrained by the persistent disconnect between HRMS attendance data and dispatch scheduling tools. Qualitative findings revealed six dominant themes: system fragmentation, communication gaps, training deficits, managerial advantage, integration benefits, and compliance anxiety. The study contributes a three-layer Multi-Stakeholder HR Coordination Framework - comprising an Information Layer, a Workflow Layer, and an Analytics Layer - and offers seven evidence-based recommendations for logistics firms pursuing HR digital transformation. These findings carry practical implications for HR professionals, technology vendors, and logistics executives responsible for aligning system capabilities with the operational demands of a complex, mu Mirzabek Kulmamatovich Jonuzokov, Zukhriddin Uchkun-ogli Choriev, Yoga Perdana Copyright (c) 2026 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 https://nordascend.com/index.php/ejedp/article/view/20 Wed, 08 Apr 2026 00:00:00 +0500 Women entrepreneurs in transition economies: digital barriers and financial inclusion https://nordascend.com/index.php/ejedp/article/view/21 Women’s entrepreneurship is widely acknowledged as a crucial catalyst for equitable economic growth, especially in transition nations experiencing digital revolution. Notwithstanding regulatory reforms and increased access to digital technology, women entrepreneurs persistently encounter socio-cultural, institutional, and financial obstacles. This study examines how women entrepreneurs manoeuvre through these limitations while capitalising on opportunities in the digital economy. The study employs a mixed-method approach that integrates secondary statistical analysis, policy evaluation, and survey-derived evidence. The theoretical foundations encompass Financial Inclusion Theory, Prospect Theory, and the Triple Bottom Line paradigm. The results demonstrate that while digital platforms improve flexibility and market accessibility, structural obstacles - such as restricted financial access, gendered labour market segmentation, and socio-cultural norms - persistently hinder women’s involvement in high-value sectors. The study indicates that focused policy interventions, digital skill enhancement, and inclusive financial frameworks are essential for bolstering women’s entrepreneurship and promoting sustainable economic development.

These shifts were closely tied to the economic and legal reforms that followed the change of government in 2016. Three developments proved most significant: the 2017 currency convertibility reform, the open tender systems introduced in 2019, and the government’s consistent efforts to attract foreign investment. Together, these factors created an investment climate that is rarely seen among former Soviet republics still going through transitional periods. This paper turns attention to one underexplored aspect of that era - how marketing strategies influenced investment outcomes, and for whom those effects mattered most. Three stakeholder groups are examined: international investors, domestic businesses, and urban households. The research was conducted using a sequential mixed-methods approach. Time-series data on investment flows and installed capacity from 2015 to 2025 were studied alongside a systematic analysis of 812 government promotional materials. Surveys were carried out with international investors (n=45), domestic businesses (n=120), and urban households (n=600), and interviews were conducted with 15 experts. Since the period covered by the econometric analysis is relatively short - seven years - the quantitative findings are presented not as definitive conclusions, but as indicative data pointing toward broader trends. The analysis identified three distinct patterns. Marketing aimed at international investors appears to have contributed to growth in foreign direct investment: annual FDI inflows grew from approximately USD 25 million in 2015 to USD 636 million by 2023, already surpassing earlier projections of USD 500 million by 2025. Investor sentiment also improved considerably between 2019 and 2023. Consumer-facing campaigns achieved wide reach - around 68% of urban households reported being aware of them. Yet residential solar adoption has remained below 1%. The household survey highlighted an important finding: knowing the specific steps required to begin an installation (procedural knowledge) had approximately 60% stronger predictive power on adoption intention compared to general awareness alone (OR=1.95 vs. 1.20). Domestic businesses fell somewhere in the middle - their awareness levels were reasonable, but most had yet to take any concrete action. Taken as a whole, these results highlight the importance of tailoring approaches to each stakeholder group within energy transition policy, and offer governments practical guidance on how to distribute promotional resources across investors, businesses, and ordinary households.

The purpose of the study will involve defining the influence of digital innovations, particularly green fintech solutions, on economic efficiency during the process of forming a sustainable financial market. This article adopts a systematic approach, comparative analysis, and statistical evaluation methods. Using the example of the national financial sector of Uzbekistan, the practical importance of fintech tools is analyzed for environmental investment financing, increasing transparency, and decreasing risks. The results testify that digital payment platforms, an electronic audit, and data exchange systems are significant factors in ensuring the financial sustainability of green projects. The proposals being developed justify strengthening public-private partnerships, expanding ecosystem-oriented innovative mechanisms of financing, and integrating green fintech infrastructure into national strategies.

Cryptocurrency allows its users to remain anonymous and charges a nominal transaction fee without using a third party. It immediately gained widespread acceptance in the financial industry and became one of its primary selling factors. Price fluctuations for cryptocurrencies become erratic. For instance, when Bitcoin was first introduced in 2009, its value was only $10, but as of early June 2017, it was worth roughly $3,000 (Bloomberg, July 5, 2017). Many investors, particularly those with a high risk tolerance, are eager to invest in cryptocurrencies. The purpose of this study is to determine how cryptocurrencies affect well-constructed portfolios. We employ stocks, commodities, foreign exchange, and exchange-traded funds. We'll use Litecoin, Ripple, and Bitcoin as our cryptocurrency. We can build an investment portfolio by applying the Modern Portfolio Theory method. The findings demonstrate that adding cryptocurrency to a portfolio does, in fact, boost its efficacy in two ways. The first is to reduce the standard deviation, and the second is to provide investors with additional allocation possibilities. Depending on the investor's risk tolerance, the ideal cryptocurrency allocation ranges from 5% to 20%.
