Department of Business Administration; 04. Faculty of Economics, Administrative and Social Sciences; 01. MEF UniversityThe digital age, with decreasing barriers to entry, paving the way for low-cost competition, saw an influx of new financial products and services globally. Soon the increasingly technology-driven financial landscape transformed itself with the democratization of finance diffusing to all levels of society. The standing rules and regulations of financial markets were confronted with an epitome of complexities marked by higher transparency, increased efficiencies, a wide range of substitutes, abundant information, a huge number of stakeholders and a bulk of aspiring entrepreneurs. However, a new game necessitates new rules, and a considerable disruption in old ways of doing is sure to witness unorthodox problems that need to be dealt with, and preferably foreseen, through a different lens. Sooner or later, these new digitally enhanced financial markets are destined to break down, dragging down everyone who once had faith in them, if not supported by proper compliance and corporate social performance and reporting standards. This chapter explores newly emerging trends in compliance and reporting standards for financial institutions.Book Part Corporate Social Responsibility in the Food Industry From a Marketing Perspective.(Livre de Lyon, 2020) Tosun, Petek; Selçuk Köylüoğlu; 04.03. Department of Business Administration; 04. Faculty of Economics, Administrative and Social Sciences; 01. MEF UniversityRapid developments in technology, the increase in the world population, environmental degradation, pandemics, and various social problems have led to a different perception and understanding of marketing. Marketing has been increasingly expected to embrace and even contribute to the remedy of issues such as obesity and been discussed from a social responsibility perspective. Although several studies have investigated the impact of CSR in the food sector, the market shares of sustainable products are generally low, so there is a need to comprehend better the effect of CSR on food marketing in different contexts. To compile previous research and present findings in an integrated way, this study focuses on CSR in the food industry from a marketing perspective.Book Part Crm in Retail Banking From Salespeople’s Perspective in the Covid-19 Outbreak(İKSAD, 2020) Tosun, Petek; 04.03.

Besides wars, pandemics have been the most dangerous and fearful threats to human life throughout history. As of August 2020, the pandemic has cost more than 777,000 lives worldwide with approximately 22 million cases and it was still ongoing. Besides its devastating impact on the health systems, the pandemic has led to an unpredictable change in the economic and social environment and the business and social life.Book Part Digital occupational health and safety(Routledge, 2022) Karadağ, Hande; 04.03.

Department of Business Administration; 04. Faculty of Economics, Administrative and Social Sciences; 01. MEF UniversityThe financial services industry is one of the most critical pillars of economic growth and sustainable development in any country. As such, the findings of the 2016 Edelman Trust Barometer, that measures trust in institutions with more than 33,000 respondents in 28 countries over the last 15 years, are highly alarming. Accordingly, the financial services industry is ranked among the lowest with a mere 51 % on a global basis. Despite this darkened outlook, areas exist that seem to be promising: Sustainability management, responsible innovation and the organized and systemic efforts to increase transparency, comparability, accountability and reliability. Although the recent crises in financial markets have led regulators to come to a general agreement that a mutual effort is needed to develop procedures for increased compliance standards, and increase the pace of harmonization in accounting and financial reporting standards, the industry is faced with an imminent challenge: The low levels of trust in financial services. In this chapter, the author discusses how to re-build trust and reputation of the industry.Book Part Exploring Elderly Customer-Employee Rapport in Services: Managerial and Social Implications(IGI Global, 2021) Tosun, Petek; 04.03.

Department of Business Administration; 04. Faculty of Economics, Administrative and Social Sciences; 01. MEF UniversityWith the start of the new millenium, marked by the disruptive power of Internet technologies, it is almost commonly acknowledged that innovative firms grow faster and perform financially better than those who fail to rapidly mobilize their social and financial capital resources to discover newer, more efficient, and ingenious ways of doing business and creating alternative sales venues. Thus, if the term innovation has come to refer to “the process of turning ideas into reality, exploiting windows of opportunities, and capturing value from them” in essence, innovation, then, can be regarded as a beneficial and intrinsically “good” phenom- enon. This is true especially for the technology and telecomunications industries according to the Thomson Reuters’ 2015 State of Innovation Report, which were ranked the most innovative industries with 30 % and 13 % of patent filings in 2014, respectively (http://www.businessinsider.com/most-innovative-industries-2015-5). Evidently though, innovation is not a win-win game for all stakeholders as laid out back in the 1930s by the Schumpeterian “creative destruction” concept portraying a “quasi-Darwinian” and rather pessimistic view of a process that serves mainly capitalistic motivations in the forms of securing monopoly profits and eventually eradicating a wide range of industries. Looking back at the past couple of decades, financial innovation has become one of the most far-reaching types of innovations, in terms of both, scope and its prolonged repurcussions. This chapter discusses the concept of financial innovation as a strategically competitive tool.Book Part Social Media Marketing of Brands in the Covid-19 Pandemic: Exploring the Crisis-Related Content(IGI Global, 2022) Tosun, Petek; 04.03. Department of Business Administration; 04. Faculty of Economics, Administrative and Social Sciences; 01. MEF UniversityThis chapter explores the social media marketing communication of brands in the first days of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak within the theoretical framework provided by signaling theory. The social media content of six Turkish brands was examined by content analysis. The findings have shown that brands shared posts in four themes: brand promotion, brand's COVID-19 messages, product promotion, and special day posts. Brands integrated the COVID-19 agenda in their social media communication in two ways. First, they designed and shared posts that focused solely on the pandemic. These COVID-19-related posts constituted a separate category that did not include any direct relevance to the brands' promotion activities. Second, they added COVID-19-related points in their social media posts. This study provides valuable findings for marketing practitioners and academicians regarding social media communication in a global health crisis.Book Part Strategic Capital Structure Management in Small and Medium Sized Businesses(Emerald Group Publishing Ltd., 2015) Karadağ, Hande; 04.03.

Department of Business Administration; 04. Faculty of Economics, Administrative and Social Sciences; 01. MEF UniversitySocial media channels are increasing day by day and the time spent on social media channels has become a significant part of the day. Social media, which is one of the facts that cannot be ignored, affects food choices to a great extent, as it does in every field. Being aware of the power of social media, food companies, and groceries also develop strategies for this medium and heavily use social media as a communication tool. In line with these developments and facts, this study aims to highlight the influence of social media on food. A bibliometric study has been conducted to enlighten the literature development on social media and food subjects. The results are expected to be helpful for both literature and practice as well as social media managers and food brand managers. © 2023 by IGI Global.

Department of Business Administration; 04. Faculty of Economics, Administrative and Social Sciences; 01. MEF UniversityThis study focuses on how to tokenize educational assets and discusses how tokenization and non-fungible tokens (NFTs) can be operationalized and adopted to the higher education landscape to provide funds for students during their higher education studies. To that end, it builds upon the income-contingent loans and higher education funding literature to propose a system that captures the value of the student’s potential future income streams as a token to be offered to higher education stakeholders willing to invest in a young person’s future, make an impact toward the Sustainable Development Goals, or simply, to diversify their portfolios and hedge against market downturns. The Future Income Token “FIT” is conceptually devised through a literature review and builds on previous findings by the author. This interdisciplinary study fits into the blockchain, crowdfunding, and higher education finance literature. Given the increasing difficulty of mobilizing funds for higher education and, the almost universal, growing student loan default problem, it asks the question: What aspects of higher education tokenomics may give higher education stakeholders the incentive to contribute to a student’s education, that other forms of financing do not? Policy makers, practitioners, as well as theoreticians can benefit from the ideas and the findings of the study. © 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
