“…Human resources follow these requirements, and the corporation can then look after and preserve resources with such assets to enhance organizational efficiency [4,31,65,66]. Previous researchers found mixed relationships between human capital and firm performance [1,20,24,52,57,59,61,66,67]. Yarovaya et al [1], Schultz [52], Hsu et al [57], Andersén [59], Jamal and Saif [66], Mincer [67], and Nguyen [20] argued that intellectual capital improves the firm efficiency, but Khan [24], Ukenna et al [61],…”

“…Thus, we consider four constructs to proxy human capital investment. They are the investment in training of employee (TR), education level of the employee (ED), knowledge level of employee (KN), and skills of employees (SK) (following the previous research [1,20,29,30]). Further, to measure the bank performance, we consider the effectiveness and efficiency of banks so as to previous research [28,29,[31][32][33].…”

The objective of this study is to examine the aspects of investment in human capital like training of employees, education level of employees, knowledge level of employees, and skills of employees that influence the performance of a bank and to provide some comments to improve the banking sectors. This research included a conceptual model along with hypotheses. This empirical study is based on primary data. The data were obtained by the convenient sampling procedure with a questionnaire using the seven-point Likert scale. The hypothesized model has been validated using data from 261 participants, and an analysis was conducted using the system of structural equation modelling. The results revealed that investment in training, knowledge level and skills of the employee were positively connected to bank performance at less than 1% and a 5% level of significance. But the employee’s educational level does not substantially affect bank output in this analysis. The focus field is the study of the human capital investments of the Human Resources Division at Janata Bank Limited. It investigates different aspects of the Janata Bank’s facilities as well as the problems and prospects. Thus, this study can be a policy dialogue for the managers, owners, decision-makers, and academicians.

The contribution of intellectual capital (IC) on financial performance have been found in previous studies but whether IC can also be utilised to improve non‐financial performance has been understudied; let alone the contributions in different economic conditions (normal and crisis periods). This study aims to provide empirical findings to answer these issues by defining non‐financial performance in terms of the environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance and COVID‐19 pandemic to represent the crisis. Non‐financial companies listed on stock exchanges in the Southeast Asia countries that are member of ASEAN (Association of Southeast Asian Nations) were selected as the samples for the research period of 2016–2020. The results show that the IC has a positive association with financial performance but a negative relationship with ESG performance. With the COVID‐19 pandemic as the moderating variable, the results show that the pandemic period is not found to moderate the effect of the IC on financial performance and ESG performance. These results indicate that under normal conditions prior to the economic crisis caused by COVID‐19, companies in Southeast Asia prioritised the use of IC to improve financial performance. Meanwhile, during the COVID‐19 pandemic, companies in the region have not utilised IC to improve their financial and non‐financial performance. The findings that IC affect ESG performance negatively need a serious attention amid the increasing awareness of sustainability and the expected role of corporate in the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
