Authors: BERTA SILVA-PALAVECINOS , DAVID CADEMARTORI-ROSSO , HANNS DE LA FUENTE-MELLA , RICARDO CAMPOS-ESPINOZA

Abstract: In the literature, it is possible to discern two types of information asymmetry in the capital market: a horizontal type – between controlling and minority shareholders – and a vertical type– between the company and investors. Studying them is very useful because information transparency improves the parity conditions of investors, mitigates conflicts of interest, diminishes the risks of privileged information, and reduces capital costs. In this investigation, the different types of minority shareholders are studied and horizontal asymmetry is further investigated to characterize these investors and to identify the causal relations between these characteristics and the asymmetry evaluated through the spread (bid-ask). In Chile, the characterization of minority shareholders is interesting due to the property concentration, the legal framework that protects minority investors, and the accounting rules applied to companies that issue public securities. Thus, this study is descriptive and

2. URBAN SPRAWL AND PUBLIC KNOWLEDGE IN PLANNING PROCESS (CASE STUDY: LAND USE CONTROL IN URBAN AREAS OF MALANG CITY)

Authors: AGUS DWI WICAKSONO , DIMAS WISNU ADRIANTO , DWI MAULIDATUZ ZAKIYAH , ISMU RINI DWI ARI , LAILY RIZKY AMALIA

Abstract: Urban sprawl is an emerging issue underpinning several dynamic changes in the peri-urban of Malang. While the environmental impacts (e.g. Land use changes, resource degradation) are inevitable, socioeconomic changes (e.g. social cohesion, economic transformation) is also tangible. Being neglected beforehand, planning had delivered considerable efforts to regulate land uses and controlling growth within the peri-urban. However, urban planning and management instruments such as zoning and urban expansion zones, have become increasingly consistent in leading cities toward an uncertain and chaotic future. Land use maps derived from Landsat imagery between 2010 and 2015 show a process of accelerated urban sprawl whereby built-up lands have more than doubled and scattered centers have merged into megacities. Urban areas in Malang City is spread on farmlands and it’s driven by profit-oriented development strategy and ineffective land use planning. Our finding demonstrate how spatial analys

3. MICROFINANCE INTERVENTIONS IN RENEWABLE ENERGY: ENHANCING THE LIVING STANDARD OF RURAL HOUSEHOLDS

Authors: TAHSINA KHAN

Abstract: This paper reviews the glimpses of microfinance interventions in renewable energy technologies to promote rural electrification through Solar Home Systems. In this regard, the present study highlights the strategic issues, implementation and dissemination of renewable energy technology in Bangladesh to enhance the living standard of rural households. By critically reviewing the research concentrations and findings of pertinent studies, this paper attempts to fill the gap of present literature on sustainability of solar energy dissemination programs by addressing the practice of micro-finance in a developing country like Bangladesh. The study attempts to add value to the existing literature in two ways: first, it reviews the rationale of microfinance for providing access to renewable energy. By doing that the paper makes an appraisal on the resulting living standard improvement and captures the prevailing constraints in the sustainability of the program. The study concludes with an emph

4. SOCIAL CAPITAL ON WATER RESOURCE MANAGEMENT (CASE STUDY: COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT ON RURAL WELLSPRING HANDLING IN SUMBERAWAN HAMLET OF MALANG REGENCY, INDONESIA)

Authors: DWI MAULIDATUZ ZAKIYAH , ISMU RINI DWI ARI , RINDANG ALFIAH , SEPTIANA HARIYANI

Abstract: The good economic growth of Indonesia has not yet been accompanied by a parallel development of infrastructure and institutional capacity on water resource management. A large number of the population still lacks access to safe water and most of the population in villages and remote areas still rely on potentially contaminated water sources. Out of 72.944 villages, only 7.474 villages have been intervened and supported to establish community based organization to manage local water supply services. Water resource management is the activity of planning, developing, distributing and managing the optimum use of water resources. Much efforts in water resource management is directed at optimizing the use of water and in minimizing the environmental impact on the natural environment. Sumberawan is one of plateau villages in Malang regency which has a water management based on community participation. From this research, we investigate the extent to which different forms of community particip

These pollution is threatening for local resident people, indirectly total city and a major river. This study was based on an investigation of “Hazaribagh Tannery Area and Relations with - Economic, Environmental and Relocation Issues”. For this study, primary data were collected from different group related and non-related with tannery business of the area. The survey was conducted on Hazaribagh to identify the total environmental condition, tannery worker, owner and economic growth and relocations of this industry as well sufferings of general resident. From the survey results on tannery worker and local people most of the respondents said that both solid and liquid waste came out from tannery,
