It has always been an interesting issue deliberating the connectedness between corporation and political power. There have been a substantial number of papers in the academic literature empirically studying what so call "corporate political connections" over the last 17 years. Using 81 papers published in 2010-2017 in finance, economics, accounting, management and other journals, in this present paper, I provide a recent literature review on firm political connections particularly with respect to the empirical studies discussing the impact of being politically connected firms. A number of issues related to the effect of political connections on corporate strategy, behaviors and outcomes have been addressed. Few other papers provide different perspective by looking at the antecedents of corporate political connections and the contingency role of such connections. Little is found on the development of new measures of corporate political connections. Finally, it could be suggested that the interaction between political connections and the technological-based business innovation would be an interesting issue to study.

The financial sector has been increasingly digitized over the last few years, and the volume of fraudulent operations has also increased, which can have severe consequences. People's digital lives are growing along with the proliferation of the internet and other digital media, giving rise to increasingly sophisticated forms of fraud as a result of the increasing availability of various financial services, which of course will be detrimental to potential investors who want to develop their businesses due to their very minimal knowledge of finance. This study aims to examine the effect of financial literacy on the ability to detect investment fraud, with the moderating variables of gender, age, and level of education. With a sample of 400 residents living in Greater Solo, this study used simple linear regression analysis and Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA). Based on the results and discussion of the above research, financial literacy has a positive and significant effect on the ability to detect investment fraud. In addition, the factors of gender, age, and education have no significant effect on moderating the effect of financial literacy on the ability to detect investment fraud.
We extend the study of Trinugroho et al. (2015) by focusing on the effect of human development on banking development and the moderating effect of the quality of local government on the link between human development and banking development. We use unique data set by disentangling the type of banks (commercial bank, rural bank, and the total of both) to measure financial development. This research uses panel data at the provincial level for the period of 2010-2014. Generally, it could be concluded that human development has positive effect on banking development. To some extent, the quality of local government is found to strengthen the impact of human development on banking development.

This paper examines the impact of market competition on the stability of Islamic and conventional banks in countries where these banks operate alongside one another. To investigate this issue, we use a sample of 100 Islamic and 390 conventional banks from 19 countries. Our baseline result shows that competition in a dual market erodes banks' stability. The heightened competitive pressure in a dual market encourages banks to engage in excessive risk-taking that can jeopardize their stability. However, the effect of competition is missing for Islamic banks, suggesting their superiority in having religious clients. Although our overall results support the 'competition-fragility' hypothesis, we find that competition can be beneficial for banks, especially at a low to medium competition level. Last, we also find that the adverse impact of competition can be reduced by having high capitalization, especially in the case of a conventional bank. Some policy implications are discussed in the paper.
