“…A study by Manap and Tehrani (2014) noted series of methods co-operative societies use to effect changes in the area of economic development of the country such as; building of market stores, recreation centers, health centers and creation of job opportunities; thus, co-operative societies promote the fullest participation of all people and facilitate equitable distribution of the benefits of globalization. In economies where low levels of domestic savings contribute to the low levels of capitalization of financial institutions (UN-HABITAT 2005), cooperative societies also serve as important housing finance partners.…”

Cooperative societies engage in many activities, one of which is the provision of housing loans for members. This has helped in making the policy of housing for all in Nigeria achievable by the government and low- income earners are having access to house of their own. This study analyses the Contributions of Cooperative Societies to Housing Delivery in Edo State. The main objective was to highlight the contributions of cooperative societies to housing delivery in the state. The study adopted survey design and 433 respondents were used in the study and two instruments - questionnaire and in-depth interview were employed to collect the required information. Data collected were analysed using descriptive and inferential statistical tools. Findings from study show that Cooperative Societies under study have significantly contributed to housing delivery by helping members to procure building materials, getting housing loans from cooperative societies, land allocation to cooperators, getting fund for large scale business by which they raise money for building construction and supply of furniture and fittings. The study recommended that in order for cooperative societies to encourage housing provision, government should direct deposit money banks to grant cooperative societies zero interest rate loan purposely for housing projects as this will engender mass housing delivery in the state.

This paper explored the determinants of performance of mosque cooperatives in Malaysia. Questionnaires were distributed among mosque co-operators in the state of Selangor, Negeri Sembilan, and Kuala Lumpur. Forty-one questionnaires were returned and found fit for further analysis using Partial Least Square (PLS) method. The findings postulated three determinants of mosque cooperatives' performance viz. board members' characteristic, internal supervision and monitoring, and members' support. The antecedents of mosque cooperative performance initial model also met the requirement for convergence validity, discriminant validity, and reliability. The PLS result showed that board members' characteristics, members' support, and internal supervision and monitoring positively determined mosque cooperatives' financial performance, and eventually financial performance influenced non-financial performance. The findings are expected to benefit regulator, national apex cooperative (ANGKASA), and mosque co-operators in illustrating an appropriate mechanism to boost performance in coming years.

Purpose Economic Society 5.0 is the answer to the challenges of the Industrial Revolution 4.0 through the creation of new value from the development of advanced technology that aims to reduce the gap between human and economic problems. Excellent human resources and adequate digital infrastructure are requirements in an Economic Society 5.0. Cooperatives as community economic organizations are players in the Industrial Revolution 4.0. Because of low competitiveness, cooperatives cannot create new and sustainable income streams, particularly digitalization capabilities. This study aims to encourage the competitiveness of cooperatives in the West Java region, Indonesia, in an Economic Society 5.0 by identifying the correlation between digital capabilities, digital orientation, employee resistance, government support, digital innovation and competitiveness. Design/methodology/approach This study uses a quantitative method through surveys as data collection techniques by distributing questionnaires to 386 leaders of cooperatives in West Java. Hypothesis testing uses analysis technique of structural equation modeling with partial least squares tool. Findings There are five hypotheses that are supported in the proposed model in this study. Digital orientation and government support have a positif and significant effect on digital innovation, in contrary; digital capability and employee resistance do not show any effect. Digital orientation, government support and digital capability also have a positive and significant effect on competitiveness. Meanwhile, employee resistance and digital innovation have no significant effect on competitiveness. Digital innovation was also found not to mediate the relationship between digital orientation, government support, digital capability and employee resistance with competitiveness. Originality/value This study provides new insights into the study of cooperatives as community’s economic institutions. This study adds empirical evidence of the factors that influence the competitiveness of cooperative institutions in Indonesia as a driver of the community’s economy. This study also provides practical implications for the development of cooperative competitiveness in developing countries, particularly in Indonesia.
