The role of foreign direct investment (FDI) in economic development and its contribution to the performance of domestic firms has motivated researchers to initiate studies for analyzing the impact of FDI on economic performance. The literature on the role of FDI mainly focuses on the production, employment, economic growth, balance of payments, knowledge spillovers and general welfare of the recipient country. However, economic growth is triggered by firms that are able to transform these positive impacts of FDI into improved firm performance. Nevertheless, the impact of FDI on firm performance has not been investigated at firm level widely. The aim of this paper is to examine whether FDI and investment incentives can be justified on the basis of academic research regarding their firm performance effect. A panel data of non-financial firms listed at Istanbul Stock Exchange (ISE) for the period 1998-2007 is used to model firm performance in terms of return on assets and sales as a dynamic process. This paper contributes to the existing literature by providing firm level empirical evidence on the impact of investment incentives and foreign ownership together with size on firm performance. Our results suggest that large and foreign ISE listed firms perform better than domestic firms. Moreover, investment incentives, as both determinants of FDI decisions and as their stand alone positive impact on firm performance, can create the economic environment in which FDI inflows can be transformed into positive returns both for recipients and investors.

Background: The current study reveals the effectiveness of gender diversity in the boardroom and considers its impact on a firm’s corporate social responsibility, financial performance and reputation, which leads towards business sustainability. The study is based on stakeholder theory assumptions which state that female directors play a vital role in board diversification. Methodology: 100 index firms listed on the Pakistan Stock Exchange were chosen as a sample size. The firm’s financial performance was measured by using three proxies in order to get robust results. Panel data of 6 years from 2010 to 2015 was applied for data analysis. The data was analyzed by applying the Fixed-Random OLS regression, which revealed that gender diversity in the boardroom has no significant relationship with corporate social responsibility (CSR), financial performance, and the reputation of a firm. Results: Study results revealed that HODI mitigates corporate social responsibility activity. According to the Fixed-Random Regression results, PW has no significant impact on shareholder return. Sales and ROA have a significant positive relationship with SHR. Conclusions: There is a negative relationship between boardroom gender diversity and a firm’s financial performance. Females in boardrooms either cause negative effects or have no impact on the firm’s financial performance. Similarly, there is no significant relationship between the presence of women in boardrooms and a firm’s reputation.

Wstęp: Obecne badania ujawniają efektywność dla firmy wynikającą ze zróżnicowania płciowego członków zarządu oraz na społeczną odpowiedzialność tej firmy, jak również jej wyniki finansowe i reputację, co prowadzi do zrównoważonego rozwoju biznesowego firmy. W pracy poddano analizie wpływ udziału żeńskich członków zarządu na dywersyfikację działań firmy. Metody: Jako próbę losową wybrano 100 firm umieszczonych na liście giełdy pakistańskiej. Wyniki finansowe były mierzone przy pomocy trzech wskaźników w celu uzyskania bardziej dokładnych wyników. Dane do analizy pobrano za okres od roku 2010 do 2015. Uzyskane dane zostały poddane analizie regresji Fixed-Random OLS, która wykazała brak wpływu zróżnicowania płci członków zarządu na społeczną odpowiedzialność (CSR), wyniki finansowe oraz reputację firmy. Wyniki: Uzyskane wyniki pokazują, że HODI łagodzi aktywność związaną ze społeczną odpowiedzialność. Zgodnie z wynikami przeprowadzonej analizy regresji, PW nie ma istotnego wpływu na zyski finansowe udziałowców. Sprzedaż oraz ROA wykazały pozytywną korelację z SHR. Wnioski: Uzyskano negatywną korelację pomiędzy zróżnicowaniem płciowym członków zarządu a wynikami finansowymi firmy. Obecność kobiet w zarządzie albo miała negatywny wpływ albo nie miała wpływu na wyniki finansowe firmy. Podobnie, nie zaobserwowano istotnej zależności pomiędzy obecnością kobiet w zarządzenie a firmą.
