Title A name given to the resource Venture capital as innovative source of financing equity capital after the financial crisis in Spain Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Fauna Atta Frimpong, Ellis Kofi Akwaa-Sekyi, Frank Gyimah Sackey, Ramon Saladrigues Solé Description An account of the resource The global financial crisis affected the supply of funds to finance equity capital, thus calling for innovative risk capital financing methods. The paper explores the sources of venture capital (VC henceforth) fundraising and determines the relationship between VC fundraising, stock market returns, and market capitalization in Spain. The study uses time-series data of VC fundraising and stock market variables from 1989 to 2020 in a vector error correction model analysis after performing cointegration. The paper reports short-run and long-run causal relations between VC fundraising, stock market returns, and market capitalization when VC fundraising and stock market returns are used as dependent variables. However, such relations do not exist when the model is dependent on market capitalization. Our results show that the VC market raises funds from diversified (geographical and institutional) sources.

Title A name given to the resource Viscoelastic properties and pasting characteristics of fermented maize: influence of the addition of malted cereals Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Emmanuel Ohene Afoakwa, Randy Adjonu, Justice Asomaning Description An account of the resource Investigations were conducted on the viscoelastic properties and pasting characteristics of fermented maize with malted cereals and their suitability for infant feeding. A 3 × 3 × 2 factorial experimental design with malting time, cereal malt concentration and cereal type was used. Maize, millet, and sorghum malts were added to fermented maize to reducing its bulk density. Samples were analysed for their viscoelastic properties and pasting characteristics using Brabender Viscoamylograph. Sorghum malt in comparison to millet and maize malts was not effective in terms of lowering the hot and cold paste viscosities of the fermented maize. Maize and millet malts liquefied the dough considerably during both the hot and cold paste viscosities. The effect of 4-day malted millet was most pronounced whilst the highest activity of maize malt was observed with the 3-day malted flours.

Title A name given to the resource Viscoelastic properties and physico-functional characterization of six high yielding cassava mosaic disease-resistant cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) genotypes Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Emmanuel Ohene Afoakwa, A Budu, S Asiedu, C Chiwona-Karltun, DB Nyirenda Description An account of the resource Investigations were conducted to characterize six high yielding cassava mosaic disease (CMD) resistant cassava varieties (Ampong, Broni bankye, Sika, Otuhia, Amakuma and Bankye fitaa) that have been developed by the Crop Research Institute of Ghana in collaboration with the International Institute for Tropical Agriculture for their differences and similarities in viscoelastic properties and physico-functional characteristics. The viscoelastic properties (pasting temperature, peak viscosity, final viscosity, breakdown viscosity and setback viscosity), and physico-functional characteristics (swelling power, solubility and water binding capacity) were determined using standard analytical methods. The results showed wide variations in viscoelastic properties with values ranging from 270.67-380.67 BU for peak viscosity, 37.17-260 BU for final viscosity, 199.83-282.33 BU for breakdown viscosity, 21.83-98.66 BU for setback viscosity and 2.48-10.51 min time to pasting temperature. Similarly, variations in swelling power, solubility and water binding capacity were noted with values ranging between 14.34-17.04%, 73.04-79.98% and 234.53-276.63% respectively for all the different cassava genotypes. Statistical analysis showed significant differences (P< 0.05) amongst the studied cassava genotypes with Sika (improved variety) having exceptionally high viscoelastic characteristics. The differences noted in the viscoelastic properties and physico-functional characteristics of the six CMD resistant cassava genotypes could be used in their selection for specific food and industrial processing applications.

Title A name given to the resource Vocabulary knowledge of collocation in business texts: a case of ESL tertiary students Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Ivy Jones-Mensah, Michael Owusu Tabiri, Daniel Arkoh Fenyi, Angel Edward Kongo, Dickson Amexo Description An account of the resource The objective of this paper is to examine and discover the vocabulary knowledge of collocation issues in business students’ academic writing. To achieve the aim, a corpus-based investigation was conducted on essays of 40 tertiary business students to ascertain the extent to which they are exposed to certain key vocabulary of the field and how such words collocate with other words appropriately. Using the British Academic Written English (BAWE) McIsaac version (2019) and concordance (Vocabulary level Text and vocabulary level software, lextutor. ca) as analytic tools to determine the key vocabulary levels of the field, the study qualitatively streamlines the overuse and the underuse of the most common collocations by students who speak English as a Second Language (ESL) in a business tertiary institution, the University of Professional Studies, Accra. The findings show that there are lexical collocation errors such as word choice, business jargon, and contextual errors. The study further reveals that some collocations are overused in student corpora, including increased lexical repetitions and redundancy. We recommend that business tertiary students gain mastery over the vocabulary of their field since it gives them a greater ability to produce high-quality written texts, which aid in text comprehension.

Title A name given to the resource Volatility and Variability Rewards of Mutual Funds in Ghana Using Jensen Alpha Index Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Michael Owusu Akomeah, Yusheng Kong, Wilfred Kwaku Drah, Basil Kusi3 Stephen Owusu Afriyie Description An account of the resource Investors are finding it difficult to determine the fund that may produce the optimal risk-reward combination. This study was engaged through the application of the Jensen Alpha Index to ascertain the performance of 10 mutual funds listed on the Ghana Stock exchange for a period of 5 years (2010-2014). The results acquired from the analyses indicated that all the 10 listed mutual funds were statistically significant and further elucidate that 90 percent of the fund managers generated excess returns for their investors, while 10 percent being unable to generate excess returns based on their stock selection skills. The overall level of diversification by the fund managers using the adjusted R grounded that, 59.88% on the average of the 10 listed mutual funds on GSE were highly diversified to some extent.

Title A name given to the resource Wage price floors and sectoral employment outcomes in Ghana Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Richard Kofi Asravor, Frank Gyimah Sackey Description An account of the resource This paper investigates the effect of daily minimum wage regulation and other covariates variables on sectoral employment generation in Ghana. The Cobb–Douglas and constant elasticity of substitution production functions were employed as the theoretical foundation for this study. Secondary Data sourced from World Development Indicators (2018) from 1991 to 2018 was used while the autoregressive distributed lag was used as the estimation. The finding confirms the insider outsider and the Phillips curve argument and also shows that sectoral employment in Ghana is supported by economic growth and foreign direct investment. Daily minimum wage negatively affects the sectoral employment, with the agricultural employment being the worst affected. Interest rate decreases total employment, whereas population growth decreases employment in the agricultural sector.
