“…It is evident that past studies did examine MSMEs’ intention to insure their businesses (Mazahir et al , 2017; Jahan and Nairoos, 2021). Based on the findings, TPB factors of attitude, subjective norm and PBC also stimulated takaful involvement, results which concur with prior studies such as Martin et al (2010), Zainol et al (2011), Rifas et al (2020) and Baharuddin and Ab Rahman (2021). Of three components among adopted variables, knowledge is the most significant variable, meaning that business entrepreneurs have enough knowledge about takaful concepts, providing a strong base for takaful companies and practitioners in Sri Lanka.…”

Purpose This study aims to investigate the factors affecting micro, small and medium entrepreneurs’ (MSMEs) behavioural intention to participate in takaful schemes in Sri Lanka. Design/methodology/approach This research adopted a quantitative approach using primary data from a questionnaire. Out of 470 questionnaires, 432 were collected (91.91%) from MSMEs in Kalmunai business region in Sri Lanka. The data obtained were analysed using partial least square-structural equation modelling. Findings This study revealed that the extension model of the theory of planned behaviour (TPB) can be effectively applied to behavioural intentions towards a takaful scheme by MSMEs. Out of eight hypotheses, seven were significant, including: attitude towards behavioural intention; subjective norm; perceived behavioural control; knowledge; religiosity; income; trust in takaful as a significant influence. However, awareness of intention was not found to be significant. Practical implications This study suggests advantages for takaful providers in Sri Lanka, especially marketing departments, for enhancing sale of products, refurbishing marketing strategies and understanding the purchasing motivation of business entrepreneurs. This study guides takaful companies as to where they should concentrate to enhance market penetration. Originality/value Previous studies have concentrated on only three factors which comprise TPB. This paper’s main contribution is on the uniqueness of the Muslim minority context in a pluralistic context, providing a marketing model for takaful operators based on the different relevant dimensions.

“…The theory of planned behaviour (TPB) was used to describe the behaviour of an entrepreneur as a purposeful intention or desire to execute certain investment decisions using accounting information (Bidin et al, 2012;Rahmiyanti et al, 2020). These behaviours identify three dimensions: personal desire, social perception and behavioural control, towards entrepreneurial accounting and education (Passoni & Glavan, 2018;Widjaja & Dermawan, 2020).…”

Purpose: This paper conducted a systematic review of entrepreneurial accounting (EA) articles published over the last ten years (2012 – 2022). Using the Systematic Qualitative Assessment Techniques (SQAT) to review 79 EA journal articles to provide an understanding of the antecedent and importance of the concept on business venture survival or otherwise. Methodology: This paper analysed the time distribution, geographic distribution, theory used, article type, data collection methodologies and themes of the EA article reviewed. Findings: The key findings show that EA interest has increased in Asia and Africa over the last decade, while Oceania (Australasia) were least represented. The most striking theme out of the five identified is the impact of EA as the heart of business ventures’ sustainability, while the resource-based theory was most used to provide a clear understanding of the concept of the need for inherent management and cost accounting skills. Implications: Findings from the review confirm the importance of entrepreneurial accounting (EA) in SMEs as scholarly work has increased in recent times in the most developing economies, especially in Asia and Africa. This study recommended that EA skills should form part of the funding requirements for start-ups in accessing finance. Keywords: entrepreneurial accounting, systematic review, sustainability, financial literacy.

However many graduates do not turn out to be entrepreneurs after their graduation, especially Malays, despite the government's call.…”

In Malaysia, a worrisome trend is emerging as an increasing number of individuals find themselves trapped within the poverty bracket and the Base of the Pyramid (BoP) socioeconomic groups. To address the economic and social challenges faced by these marginalized communities and to contribute significantly to poverty reduction and overall well-being, inclusive entrepreneurship has emerged as a pivotal strategy. This study delves into the critical imperative of inclusive entrepreneurship, which often eludes existing quantitative measurements of societal well-being. These measurements frequently overlook the fundamental dimensions of social and psychological well-being inherent to inclusive entrepreneurship. Drawing from the Islamic framework of Maqasid al-Shariah, which elucidates the objectives of Islamic law, we introduce a unique concept—Qalb-based Entrepreneurial Traits. These traits are rooted in moral values and ethics, forming a bridge between Islamic principles and entrepreneurial intentions. Using a quantitative approach, we explore the determinacy of these Qalb-based entrepreneurial traits in conjunction with three key antecedents derived from the theory of planned behavior. Our study specifically focuses on assessing the entrepreneurial intentions of Muslim students enrolled in Malaysian institutions of higher learning (IHLs). Our survey encompassed 287 respondents, and we conducted a rigorous multiple regression analysis using PLS-SEM to scrutinize the relationships between these variables. Our findings leave no room for doubt—Qalb-based behavioral traits exert a significant influence on inclusive entrepreneurial intentions (IEI) among Muslim youth in Malaysia. Furthermore, we uncover that gender plays a moderating role in the relationships between Darurriyyat and Tahsiniyyat Qalb behavioral traits and inclusive entrepreneurial intentions, shedding light on the nuanced dynamics of these determinants. In essence, this study offers valuable insights into the pivotal role of Islamic ethical principles in shaping inclusive entrepreneurship. Beyond theoretical contributions, it provides practical implications for policymakers and stakeholders dedicated to addressing the pressing challenges of poverty and social well-being within the Muslim community in Malaysia.
