Business ownership constitutes a vital part of the economy. While many of the determinants of entrepreneurship have been intensively studied, the link between language proficiency and entrepreneurship has not. Using the Migrant Dynamics Monitoring Survey, this paper studies the importance of language skills for migrant entrepreneurship. We find that migrants who can understand and fluently speak the local dialect are more likely to become entrepreneurs. The effect of language on entrepreneurship is more pronounced in the urban fringe, towns, and rural areas, and especially where individuals migrate across different dialectal regions. Gaining local dialect skills influences positively the decision to become either a necessity- or an opportunity-driven entrepreneur.

Your IT department's actions are crucial to meeting the new demands of the Sarbanes‐Oxley Act (SOA). But IT people often don't recognize their critical role in implementing financial controls, warn the authors. To make matters worse, you may have additional problems: incorrect or missing systems documentation, not including IT in SOA discussions, and IT attitudes or knowledge gaps that hinder your SOA compliance. So how can you overcome these worrying difficulties? © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. 相似文献

Outsourcing has been a favorite way for many companies to cut costs. But the recently passed Sarbanes-Oxley Act may mean problems. Management must maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting. And this responsibility cannot be transferred to external entities. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. 相似文献
