“…Extant empirical literature indicates mounting studies on human capital-corporate financial performance link (Alipour, 2012; Verduijn, 2013; Zarei et al , 2014; Soheyli et al , 2014; Hejazi et al , 2016; Yudawisastra et al , 2018; Nassar, 2018; Forte et al , 2019; Palazzi et al , 2019; Tran and Vo, 2020). Whereas some of these studies found positive relationship between human capital and corporate performance (Alipour, 2012; Zarei et al , 2014; Soheyli et al , 2014; Hejazi et al , 2016; Yudawisastra et al , 2018; Nassar, 2018; Forte et al , 2019; Palazzi et al , 2019; Tran and Vo, 2020), others showed a negative relationship among these variables (Guo et al , 2011; Ekwe, 2013; Mehri et al , 2013). Further, exiting literature also shows rising studies on structural capital-corporate financial performance association (Alipour, 2012; Zarei et al , 2014; Mohammadi, 2015; Yudawisastra et al , 2018; Nassar, 2018; Forte et al , 2019; Palazzi et al , 2019).…”
