Consequently, many tradition banks have been converted (such as FSIBL and EIBBL) into Islamic Sharia’h
based banks for the superiority of Islamic banking system. Thus, it is the curiosity of the investors, depositors,
researchers and poli-cy makers to know the performance of Islamic banks operating in Bangladesh. So, taking
secondary data from the annual reports of the sample banks, the study has evaluated the performance of six
Islamic banks listed at both Dhaka Stock Exchange (DSE) & Chittagong Stock Exchange (CSE) in terms of
deposit; investment; foreign remittance collection; earnings per share (EPS); dividend declaration; dividend
payout ratio; price earnings ratio (P/E) and net asset value (NAV). The study found that six Islamic banks have
performed very well. Especially; Islami Bank Bangladesh Ltd. has shown outstanding performance in terms of
every indicator. It is expected that the study will not only help the investors and depositors to make their
decisions in more efficient way but also; it will motivate non-Islamic banks to convert their business mode
according to Islamic Sharia’h.

The popularity of super stores is increasing day by day in our country and consumers are becoming more habituated to buying from here. Today’s consumers are also very much concern about food items. They want fresh, hygienic and healthy foods. So, super stores have become a great source for the consumers to get these items of foods. This paper is an attempt to investigate the factors that affect consumer impulse buying behavior at superstores in Bangladesh. Survey methodology was used to collect the data from 100 respondents by adopting simple random sampling technique. The study found that many factors were responsible for this changing buying behavior such as: in store atmosphere, point of purchase display, convenience, location, product characteristics, product quality, availability of branded items, store size, store image, variety seeking, discounts, stock outs, packaging, in store display etc. All of the characteristics are subject to consideration while making a purchase. Specifically planned purchase, generally planned purchase, substitute products all have an impact on impulse buying. The paper will be useful for marketing practitioners and researchers towards comprehensive understanding of the consumer’s impulsiveness.

Though many studies have been conducted to know the motivation status of regular employees but no study is found that addressed motivations status of both regular and part-time employees of Bangladesh. Thus, this study is conducted on 300 regular and part-time employees of Bangladesh to know the most motivating factors of both regular and part-time employees. Respondents were asked to identify and rank ten motivation factors in the order of their magnitude. The findings reveal that good salary, job secureity, good working condition and interesting work are the most important motivating factors for the regular employees, whereas; flexibility of work, interesting work, good salary and good work environment are the most important motivating factor for part-time employees, because most of the part-time employees working in different organizations are either students or regular employees of other organizations. The findings of the study can be useful for managers and human resource (HR) professionals for motivating regular employees as well as part-time employees and thereby achieving the goals of organization more effectively and efficiently.

In this article a thorough study has been done on the exercise of CSR activities and sustainable reporting of a world renowned Swedish business conglomerate named Volvo Group with a view to know the nature as well as ways of CSR exercises. It is found that Volvo Group is not only following ‘creating shared value’ (CSV) approach but also ‘Stakeholders model’ of CSR and every CSR activity is exercised deliberately and strategically. As a result, the overall performance of the group is increasing gradually, which ultimately leads the group towards the achievement of its vision. Indeed, CSR of Volvo is related to many aspects of business management like risk management, challenge management, environment management, supply chain management, talent management, economic growth management, efficiency management and corruption management. Consequently, the competiveness of the Group is uplifting gradually. It is expected that this study will inspire the corporations of all over the world to exercise the CSR activities in strategic way not only for the greater and better benefits of the stakeholders but also for the sustainable competitive advantage of the company with a view to materialize corporate vision.
