“…For instance, Khandker (2005) in a study using panel data from Bangladesh found that access to microfinance helped to alleviate poverty in rural communities in Bangladesh. Similar studies by Lashley (2004) in the Carribean, Akanji (2006) in Nigeria, Imai et al (2010) in India, Nawaz (2010) in Bangladesh, Montgomery and Weiss (2011) in Pakistan and Okibo and Makanga (2014) in Kenya all came to the same conclusion that microfinance is a veritable tool to alleviate poverty by empowering the poor and supporting incomegenerating activities of households especially those in the rural areas.…”

Microcredit is a financial service whose importance is often understated. When lack of access to microcredit is exacerbated by a public health emergency such as the COVID-19 pandemic, its real significance as an essential service in poverty alleviation becomes more apparent. The outbreak and spread of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) has led to dramatic transformations of every sector of the Nigerian society including microcredit delivery system, where formal and informal actors co-exist often in an uneasy relationship. Unfortunately, strategies for inclusive microcredit delivery before and during the COVID-19 pandemic are lacking in Nigeria, fuelling the further exclusion of informal sector in microcredit governance and policy process in Nigeria. The paper reviews the state of the COVID-19 pandemic in Nigeria and identifies policy gaps in microcredit delivery and governance mechanism. The study also highlights the linkages between COVID-19 and microcredit in poverty alleviation with a view to catalysing increased and inclusive access to microcredit and sustainability policy in Nigeria. It is argued that acknowledging the role of microcredit in informal economy and poverty alleviation is the critical first step towards framing a sustainable microcredit policy in which primary stakeholders are involved.

“…But of course, in a fair way, bank credit or macro debt will also have a negative impact, for example, it will put pressure on the tax sector that is increasingly large and massive to balance the debt position, and is feared to have an effect on fiscal, monetary, and state strategic policies. Wisely and ideally to overcome the adverse effects of the high debt burden in the form of credit banks in Indonesia, the government regulation policy is sought and maximized so that the debt function becomes effective as suggested in the study (Roşoiu, 2015;Sangha et al, 2019;Lukman et al, 2018).…”

“…However, for the energy sector and energy policy, government spending in this sector has a significant role in terms of economic growth (Fizaine & Court, 2016), as well as government policy (Roşoiu, 2015), public welfare (Sangha et al, 2019) and level of national income (Lukman et al, 2018).…”

“…However, several aspects of the study state that government spending has a significant role in economic growth (Fizaine & Court, 2016;Dahliah et al, 2020;Dinh, 2020;Luong et al, 2020), so is the causality between economic growth and employment, which must be bridged with government policy (Roşoiu, 2015), thereby increasing the level of community welfare (Sangha et al, 2019) and the level of acceptance of a country (Lukman et al, 2018). The correlation between bank credit growth and economic growth is in line with several research results including thereby increasing the level of community welfare (Bordo et al, 2016;Chi & Li, 2017;Ketteni & Kottaridi, 2019), which concluded that the intermediary role of banking institutions is very influential in a country's economic growth.…”

The purpose of this study is to provide benefits and ethically-rooted managerial implications based on theoretical underpinnings through an empirical study using correlation between wages, bank credit, government expenditure on economic growth, and employment via a case study in Indonesia. Besides that, managerial implications strive to provide benefits to the government regarding the importance of establishing effective and pro-development regulations to realize economic growth and employment through the efficient role of wages, bank credit, and government spending. This study uses secondary macroeconomic data from the period 2010-2019 with analysis using the correlation test with the Pearson correlation method. Out of eight hypotheses tested, two hypotheses do not have a significant correlation. The details of the statistical results obtained the following correlations: the correlation between bank credit and wages has a significant, but indirect (negative) correlation. However, the correlation between bank credit and economic growth has a direct and significant (positive) correlation. Government expenditure correlates positively with wages, but correlates negatively with bank credit. Wages are positively correlated with economic growth, but have no significant effect on employment. Finally, economic growth has a positive correlation with government expenditure, but does not have a significant correlation with employment.

Cumulative grade point average (CGPA) is a system for calculation of GPA scores and is one way to determine a student's academic performance in a university setting. In Nigeria, an employer evaluates a student's academic performance using their CGPA score. For this study, data were collected from a student database of a private school in the south-west geopolitical zone in Nigeria. Regression analysis, correlation analysis, and analysis of variance (F-test) were employed to determine the study year that students perform better based on CGPA. According to the results, it was observed that students perform much better in year three (300 Level) and year four (400 Level) compared to other levels. In conclusion, we strongly recommend the private university to introduce program that will improve the academic performance of students from year one (100 level).
