THE RELATIVE VALUE OF CONSISTENCY IN TEAM MANAGEMENT COMPARED TO QUALITY – EVIDENCE FROM IMAN INVEST FINTECH
Dilshod Akhmadkulov

This study analyzes the interrelationship between consistency and quality in team performance and their impact on efficiency. The research is based on empirical data from the “Iman Invest Fintech” company, in which the daily activities of teams, the stability of results, and service quality indicators were examined in depth.

INSTITUTIONAL PRESSURES, RISK GRADIENT, AND VALUE CO-CREATION: A STUDY ON CHINA’S TOURISM INVESTMENT ALLOCATION STRATEGIES FOR THE GLOBAL SOUTH
Zhibo Wei

Driven by geopolitical reconfigurations, tourism investment in the Global South is shifting from volume-based expansion to risk-centric decision-making. This study synthesizes institutional theory, the resource-based view, and the Social License to Operate (SLO) to assess this transition. Leveraging panel data from 18 Belt and Road countries (2019–2024), we construct an assessment system across three dimensions: institutional quality, macroeconomic stability, and developmental maturity. Using the entropy weight method, we identify a distinct risk gradient: Africa exhibits the highest risk intensity, followed by Central Asia and Central and Eastern Europe, with Southeast Asia being the most stable. Exchange rate volatility and political instability emerge as primary systemic drivers, though Southeast Asia shows consistent risk abatement. Finally, we operationalize a "risk-capability-strategy" framework, proposing differentiated regional allocation strategies to navigate the Global South’s evolving investment landscape

The research results demonstrate a stable positive relationship between the studied factors and performance, with modern analytical tools (KPI, factor analysis, and marginal analysis) having the greatest impact. Based on the findings, practical recommendations for improving the management accounting system have been developed, including the implementation of KPI systems, the development of analytical tools, and the integration of digital technologies.
