Machine learning (ML) is a novel method that has applications in asset pricing and that fits well within the problem of measurement in economics. Unlike econometrics, ML models are not designed for parameter estimation and inference, but similar to econometrics, they address, and may be better...

The use of machine learning (ML) methods has been widely discussed for over a decade. The search for the optimal model is still a challenge that researchers seek to address. Despite advances in current work that surpass the limitations of previous ones, research still faces new challenges in...

Artificial intelligence (AI) is regarded as the science and technology for producing an intelligent machine, particularly, an intelligent computer program. Machine learning is an approach to realizing AI comprising a collection of statistical algorithms, of which deep learning is one such...

Market liquidity has an immediate impact on the execution of transactions in financial markets. Informed counterparty risk is often priced into market liquidity. This study investigates whether microblogging data, as a non-financial information tool, is priced along with market liquidity...

Research analysis of small enterprises are still rare, due to lack of individual level data. Small enterprise failures are connected not only with their financial situation abut also with non-financial factors. In recent research we tend to apply more and more complex models. However, it is not...

Recent literature shows that adopting an accounting information system (AIS) can lead to better decision-making, planning, efficiency and on-time management control, and organisational functionality. However, the impact of AIS implementation on role creation in the organisation is unclear. With...

Airtime lending default rates are typically lower than those experienced by banks and microfinance institutions (MFIs) but are likely to grow as the service is offered more widely. In this paper, credit scoring techniques are reviewed, and that knowledge is built upon to create an appropriate...

Despite the fact that a comprehensive analysis of digitalization processes in the EU member states has been carried out, the impact of a country's digitalization level on the risks of poverty and social exclusion requires further investigation. The purpose of the paper is to verify a hypothesis...

The research field related to finance has made great progress in recent years due to the development of information processing technology and the availability of large-scale data. This special issue is a collection of 16 articles on empirical finance and one book review. The content is six...

The main topic of this paper is to estimate the possibility and inclination of Croatian companies towards technology and innovation as well as to analyze advantages, limitations and risks involved with this significant technological leap. We analyzed 7147 Croatian business entities operating in...
