Intellectual capital (IC) is acknowledged as a source of wealth creation, thereby fostering competitive advantage and sustainability within the business domain. This study aims to conduct an empirical investigation to examine the impact of IC and its components on the sustainable growth of Indonesia Stock Exchange-listed manufacturing companies. This study employs multiple linear regression to examine data pertaining to Indonesia Stock Exchange-listed manufacturing companies from 2020 to 2022. It has been confirmed that intellectual capital promotes sustainable development, according to the findings of the research. Likewise, it has been observed that the elements comprising Structural Capital Efficiency (SCE) and Capital Employed Efficiency (CEE) encourage sustainable growth. However, different results are shown by Human Capital Efficiency (HCE), which indicates that HCE is unable to influence SG. The outcomes of this study offer valuable perspectives on the crucial components that can bolster sustainable growth in developing countries.

In this regard, it is necessary to study the conditions and opportunities for achieving sustainable growth, based on the example of Russian airlines using econometric modeling methods The solution of this problem requires the study of a system of economic and non-economic factors to achieve sustainable growth. It also requires an analysis of the industry specifics of air passenger transportation market to determine the main indicators of economic growth.

One of the ten points of reforms related with the cohesion politics refers to e-cohesion. The article outline the EU and Romania regulations prepared for e-cohesion target that is established for all EU countries in 2016. The paper is presenting the main opportunities and limits in the e-cohesion process for the horizon 2014-2020 using as methodology of study the computing and analysis based on the documentation published by EU, Netherlands and Romanian regulators. The study is also presenting the stage of e-cohesion changes reported by Netherlands and Romania.

In recent years, the legal steps (regulatory) taken at EU level as well as in each Member State, aimed to determine an ascent of sustainable growth, supported by a substantial degree of structural reforms. Obviously, Romania joined on the line, accounting as a responsibility of the state authorities to implement the European standards of the aforementioned nature, and also to develop and implement various (national) laws in an attempt to achieve faster the macro-stabilization and to strengthen the economic and business environment. In other words, lately, a certain enhancement of the intervention of the executive authority/government by legal means in the economic and business environment occurred, a situation determined, as we will show, by the increasing financial difficulties, to which, as we observe, were associated certain circumstances regarding the environment/sustainable development.

Fluctuations in financial markets have greatly influenced real economy around the world over the past two decades. The 2008–09 global crisis is the latest in a long list of economic events shaped by cycles in financial markets. Its severity has instantly made the study of financial cycles a central topic of research confirming that peaks in the financial cycle are closely associated with systemic banking crises. The paper discusses the causes of economic cycles and their impact on economy, but also the distinct characteristics of financial cycles by considering the close connection between the financial cycle and financial crises. Given the multidimensional interactions between financial and economic cycles, a close monitoring of cycles in financial markets should be an integral part of macroeconomic surveillance and policy design.

Preserving the environment is becoming a universal priority. Human activities must be redesigned to best adapt them to available resources and to reduce their deleterious impact on the planet. The Green Nephrology Group of the “Société française de néphrologie, dialyse et transplantation” (SFNDT) has started a reflection on these issues, in particular on dialysis, a vital treatment but with high carbon production, associated with high water consumption. The data available on these points are presented such as, among others, the collection of indicators and action plans, the recycling of waste from water treatment, the reduction of dialysate flow, the reuse and regeneration of spent dialysate as well as calculations of carbon emission by dialysis activity. Architectural experiences are reported as well as the regulatory constraints applying to manufacturers and organizations in the sector. Potential solutions require the mobilization of all stakeholders, ranging from patients to health authorities, including caregivers, pharmacists, technicians, nephrologists and facility managers. They will be formalized very soon in a guide being prepared by the SFNDT Green Nephrology Group.
