AUDIT QUALITY ATTRIBUTES AND MARKET VALUE OF LISTED DEPOSIT MONEY BANKS IN NIGERIA
type: item
description: This study examines how key audit-quality attributes—audit fees, audit tenure, and audit report lag—affect the market value of listed deposit money banks in Nigeria, using market price per share (MPS) as the indicator of firm value. The study adopts an ex-post facto research design and utilizes secondary data obtained from the annual reports and NGX fact books of eleven purposively selected banks covering the period 2009–2023. An Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) model was employed to capture both short-run and long-run dynamics after conducting all necessary diagnostic evaluations. The empirical results show that each audit attribute exerts a significant influence on market value only in the long run: audit fees and audit report lag exhibit a positive long-run effect on MPS, while audit tenure demonstrates a negative long-run effect. These findings suggest that sustained audit effort and more thorough reporting processes may strengthen investor confidence over time, whereas extended auditor–client relationships could raise independence concerns that weaken firm valuation. Overall, the study reinforces the relevance of audit-quality indicators in explaining long-term market value and recommends enhanced audit transparency, periodic auditor rotation, and more efficient reporting processes to improve investor perception and support market stability.

THE ROLE OF DEBT-SERVICE GUARANTEE FUNDS IN ENSURING SOVEREIGN FINANCIAL STABILITY: INTERNATIONAL EXPERIENCE AND PRACTICAL INSIGHTS
type: item
description: In an era of rising public debt levels globally, the mechanisms by which nations ensure the timely servicing of their financial obligations have become a critical barometer of economic credibility. This article explores the strategic role of Debt-Service Guarantee Funds (DSGFs) as a pivotal financial mechanism for managing sovereign debt. By analyzing the operational frameworks of eight diverse economies (India, Malaysia, Turkey, Mexico, the United States, Russia, China, and Germany) this study identifies common features and distinct national adaptations. The findings indicate that dedicated guarantee funds enhance economic security by insulating debt repayment from budgetary volatility, strengthen sovereign credit ratings, and bolster investor confidence. The research concludes that while the funding sources vary (ranging from natural resource revenues to prioritized budget allocations), the underlying principle of securing debt service through dedicated mechanisms is a universal factor in maintaining financial stability and trust in international capital markets.

PETROLEUM PROFIT TAX AND ECONOMIC GROWTH OF NIGERIA (2011-2023)
type: item
description: Nigeria is amongst few countries that are endowed with natural resources like crude oil and liquified natural gas. Both resources have brought about high level of oil and gas industrial activities in the country, which have led to huge increase in tax revenue (PPT inclusive). But the poor conditions of public utilities in Nigeria has led to so many questions about the usefulness of taxation in Nigeria. This study therefore investigated the impact of Petroleum Profit Tax on the economic growth of Nigeria, from 2011 – 2023. Petroleum Profit Tax revenues were employed as the independent variable, while Gross Domestic Product (GDP) which was used as a proxy for economic growth served as the dependent variable. Data were sourced from the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) statistical bulletin and Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS) tax and statistics report. The data were analyzed using the regression analysis. The result showed that Petroleum Profit Tax has positive but non-significant effect on Gross Domestic Product (GDP). The study recommended that government should diversify Nigeria's revenue base by strengthening other sectors of the economy in order to reduce dependency on Petroleum Profit Tax, thereby mitigating the risks associated with fluctuating oil prices. The study also recommended that the government should use reasonable portion of funds generated through Petroleum Profit Tax to provide social amenities for the benefit of the citizens.

PROSPECTS FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT OF THE AGRO-ECONOMY SECTOR: CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES
type: item
description: The sustainable development of the agro-economy sector is increasingly recognized as a key determinant of national food security, rural welfare, and adaptation to global climate change. In Uzbekistan and many other developing economies, agriculture remains a dominant sector, yet it faces structural, environmental, and financial challenges that threaten its long-term stability. This article investigates the prospects of sustainable development in the agro-economy, with a specific focus on Uzbekistan’s agricultural transformation between 2018 and 2024. The study applies a mixed methodological framework, combining econometric modeling, statistical analysis, SWOT assessment, and scenario-based forecasting to examine productivity growth, irrigation efficiency, export diversification, and the transition to organic farming. Empirical findings indicate that the adoption of digital agriculture technologies (AgroTech, AI, IoT) and the establishment of agro-clusters have contributed to improvements in yield, market access, and resource management. However, persistent issues such as excessive water consumption, limited renewable energy integration, and insufficient access to green finance continue to slow progress. Comparative analysis with international best practices from the European Union, China, and Turkey highlights both opportunities and gaps in Uzbekistan’s agricultural policies. The paper concludes by recommending strategic policy measures that include the promotion of green financing instruments, expansion of renewable energy in rural areas, strengthening of value chains, and the development of climate-resilient farming practices. These measures are expected to foster a competitive, inclusive, and sustainable agro-economy that is aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

RESEARCHING THE TRANSFORMATIONAL IMPACTS OF HUMAN POTENTIAL ON THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT OF REGIONS
type: item
description: This research explores the transformational impact of human potential on regional economic development within the framework of globalization and Industry 4.0. The study aims to quantify how investments in human capital (HC) drive economic growth both directly and through intermediary channels such as institutional quality, environmental sustainability, and infrastructure development. The study employs a quantitative approach utilizing a Structural Equation Model (SEM). Data were gathered from a survey of 100 respondents using a 5-point Likert scale to evaluate five primary constructs: Human Capital (HC), Governance and Institutional Quality (GIQ), Environmental Quality (EQ), Infrastructure Development (ID), and Regional Economic Development (RED). The model's reliability was validated through Cronbach’s alpha (0.80–0.87) and goodness-of-fit indices, including CFI (0.93) and RMSEA (0.05). The study concludes that strategic investment in human potential is the foundational pillar for economic stability and competitiveness. While infrastructure and environmental factors are necessary (impacts of 0.350 and 0.280 respectively), their effectiveness is contingent upon the quality of human capital available to manage these resources.

HOW FINANCIAL LITERACY INFLUENCES FINTECH USAGE IN RURAL UZBEKISTAN JEL G41
type: item
description: The study looks at how financial literacy affects Fintech use in Uzbekistan. It also identifies key socio-demographic factors. The findings show that financial literacy, education level, employment status, and savings rate boost Fintech usage, especially payment systems like “Click,” “Pay me,” and mobile banking. Moreover, financial literacy helps connect education and employment to Fintech usage. This underscores the need for educational programs and job opportunities to promote financial inclusion through Fintech in Uzbekistan. About 18% of the population's openness to Fintech is explained by these factors. However, financial training does not seem to impact on Fintech usage among people.

OBJECTIVES, TASKS AND PRINCIPLES OF EFFICIENT MANAGEMENT OF ENTERPRISES
type: item
description: Recently, issues related to profit management have become increasingly relevant both theoretically and practically. Profit characterizes the financial results of the organization for a certain period of time and is one of the main indicators that external contractors and owners make decisions about the company. At the same time, it should be remembered that the profit performs the function of an accounting indicator, which is calculated in accordance with the approved accounting standards. One of the fundamental printouts of the account-the application of the method of calculation – leads the managers of the company to the fact that it is necessary to make decisions on determining the main elements of profit (income and expenses), as well as the time of their evaluation.

MICROFINANCE AND SME LENDING: CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES IN UZBEKISTAN
type: item
description: This study examines the current state, challenges, and opportunities of microfinance and small and medium enterprise (SME) lending in Uzbekistan's rapidly evolving financial sector. Using a mixed-methods approach incorporating statistical analysis, literature review, and policy document examination, we analyze data from 2022-2025 covering 218 microfinance institutions and the broader SME financing landscape. Results demonstrate explosive growth: microfinance loan volumes doubled to 21.3 trillion soums in the first nine months of 2025, while total microfinance services reached 66.9 trillion soums (up 1.9-fold). However, critical challenges persist: only 10% of small and 16% of medium enterprises access credit, creating a $6 billion financing gap. Key barriers include insufficient collateral, limited financial literacy, high interest rates (averaging 35.9%), and gender disparities (women-led businesses receive only 14% of SME loans despite owning 33% of enterprises). Opportunities emerge through digital transformation (69% of MFO loans now online), regulatory reforms including collateral-free lending up to 100 million soums, and international support programs targeting 7,000 MSMEs by 2030. This research contributes empirical evidence on Uzbekistan's microfinance evolution and provides actionable recommendations for policymakers, financial institutions, and development organizations to enhance financial inclusion and SME sector growth.

OPTIMIZATION OF BUSINESS PROCESSES, SUPPLY CHAINS AND OPERATIONAL EFFICIENCY THROUGH INTELLIGENT SYSTEMS AND PREDICTIVE ANALYTICS
type: item
description: This research examines the transformative impact of artificial intelligence (AI) and big data analytics on corporate operational efficiency, supply chain resilience, and business process optimization. Based on comprehensive analysis of empirical data from McKinsey Global Surveys (2024-2025), and the UNDP's "Digital Economy of Uzbekistan" (2025) study, and contributions from Uzbek scholars including Zukhurova N.A. (TUIT), Yuldashev A.A. (TSUE), the study demonstrates that organizations effectively integrating AI-driven predictive analytics achieve 20-30% reduction in inventory costs, up to 50% improvement in forecasting accuracy, and 15-25% enhancement in overall operational efficiency. With 88% of global organizations now reporting regular AI use and 65% adopting generative AI, the paradigm has shifted from experimentation to strategic scaling. The study specifically analyzes the context of Uzbekistan, where the Government AI Readiness Index ranking has significantly improved from 87th (2023) to 62nd (2025) place. Through detailed comparative case studies of Siemens, Microsoft, Amazon, DHL, and Alibaba (Cainiao), the research synthesizes global best practices for emerging economies. Incorporating insights from Uzbek scholars including Zukhrova N.A. (TUIT) and Yuldashev A.A. (TSUE), the paper proposes a strategic roadmap for 2026–2030, targeting a $10 billion contribution to Uzbekistan's GDP by 2030.

ACHIEVING SUSTAINABLE AND INCLUSIVE ECONOMIC GROWTH THROUGH EXPORT-IMPORT POTENTIAL
type: item
description: This study develops a holistic and practice-oriented methodology for achieving inclusive economic growth through the long-term enhancement of export-import potential. In many emerging economies, foreign trade is not simply a channel for market expansion; it is a foundational mechanism that introduces new technologies, stimulates competitiveness, and strengthens macroeconomic resilience. Guided by both classical and modern trade theories, this research explores how diversification, industrial upgrading, trade facilitation, and institutional reforms interact to support sustainable development. Drawing on international experience and recent economic reforms undertaken in Uzbekistan, the paper identifies key structural and policy factors that determine the effectiveness of trade-led growth. The findings suggest that only a coordinated approach combining innovation, strong institutions, and evidence-based policy design can transform export-import potential into a stable source of inclusive economic growth.

THE IMPACT OF AUDITING ON PRODUCTION EFFICIENCY IN FRUIT AND VEGETABLE PROCESSING ENTERPRISES
type: item
description: This article discusses the theoretical essence of auditing in fruit and vegetable processing enterprises and the mechanisms of its influence on production efficiency. The specific features of the industry - seasonality, perishable raw materials, cold chain, laboratory quality indicators (BRIX, pH, dry matter), the presence of normal and excessive losses - justify the need to organize the audit methodology in a process-centered and risk-based approach. The study interprets the classical principles of auditing in an adapted way to production processes and reveals the role of audit evidence in ensuring the connection between physical flows and financial results. The article scientifically substantiates the importance of audit results in reducing costs, increasing output coefficients, reducing technological variability, and making management decisions based on evidence.
