Introduction

The field of entrepreneurship development has got significant attention in literature. Widespread work is available, covering the theme of new business ideas & plans with success factors in the market place. The value feature and effectiveness of entrepreneurship education demonstrate that emerging business venture get better market share and more success rate if they got significant attention in educational institutions (Nambisan & Baron, 2013; Zahra et al., 2000). For the creation of wealth and job provision, entrepreneurship is known under the title of critical development factor in the world economy. Theories of knowledge and innovation indicates the fact that role of entrepreneurship in the economic development leads towards the creation of employment and wealth, specifically for those who are innovative (Acs & Szerb, 2009; Carlsson et al., 2009; Decker et al., 2014; Schumpeter, 1912). In both developed and emerging economies, entrepreneurship is very well recognized due to its significance in the economy and business firms. For instance, in the region of Malaysia, it is observed as the integral part of economic growth, providing enough help for the management of the country to attain their goal of middle income status and alleviation of poverty from 49 percent to 16.5 percent, during the time span of 1970 to 1990 (Al-Dhaafri et al., 2016; Yusoff et al., 2014). Major development organization in the world like United Nations, World Bank and International Labour Organization have recognized the significance of entrepreneurship, its development and related education. Besides, World Economic Forum is consistently focusing on the entrepreneurship development through various policies and procedures in different regions because of its contribution in the economic and financial growth of the countries (Nyadu-Addo & Mensah, 2017). Over the last two decades, a dramatic change is observed in United Kingdom regarding entrepreneurship development and education as it is emerged as among the key strategic objectives to be achieved through higher education under the title of higher education institutions or HEIs (Agency, 2012; Kitagawa & Lightowler, 2013).

In recent years, financial management and relevant expertise has drawn enough attention in the field of finance by the policy makers and researchers. The idea of financial education leads to the all type of knowledge and expertise in high school, college and universities which can reflect financial skills and know how in the students. Social welfare is significantly associated with the increasing level of financial literacy, enhancing the learning attitude towards finance (Blackburn & Ram, 2006; Huhmann & McQuitty, 2009; Mouna & Jarboui, 2015; Halder & Chandra, 2012; Dumbu, 2014; Pan, 2014; Esia-Donkoh et al., 2015; Vahdany & Gerivani, 2016; Wijayanto & Sumarwan, 2016; Vahdany & Gerivani, 2016; Jayakumar, 2016; Verma et al., 2018). It is assumed that financial management improves and motivate the financial behavior, financial wellbeing and overall development of new business ideas (Ali & Haseeb, 2019; Haseeb et al., 2018:2019; Suryanto et al., 2018).

Besides, various business ideas and entrepreneurs are failed due to lack of/poor financial management expertise. Two major reasons have been identified in existing literature, covering the title of failure of entrepreneurs due to poor FM and its control. These are under the title of lack of financial cushion, and poor management of cash flows (Solver, 2018). Some earlier business firms like small and medium enterprises have been failed due to poor financial planning along financial experiences. As per the findings of (Moyak, 2017), it is observed that 71 percent of entrepreneurs are failed due to poor financial planning and related body of knowledge.

In the region of Kuwait, entrepreneurial trend is not created over short time, but it is working with the steady growth in the economy. In recent years, country is seeking to attract more than 400 KD million in various sectors including education and technology. With the help of vision 2035, Kuwaiti administration is expected to promote entrepreneurship trends in the country while enabling the small and medium size enterprises for the economic development. Significant fund is generated for the promotion of SMEs in the region. An organization under the title of Entrepreneur’s Organization (EO) is working in Kuwait which is also dealing in the global context with the network of more than 13000 business owners in 57 regions. EO is established in 1987 and enables leading entrepreneurs while inculcating them to grow and lead through significant success in the world (Entrepreneur’s Organization, 2018). Figure 1 indicates the overall members of EO in Kuwait, sales revenue during 2018, and overall employees till date.

Rest of the paper is as follows. Section two deals with the review of literature in the field of entrepreneurship and financial management. Section three explains the key variables & methodology. Section four clarifies the descriptive and empirical facts with the help of discussions. Last section covers the conclusion, limitations and future implications of the study.

Literature Review

Entrepreneurship deals with the concept of entrepreneurial competencies, providing the students with core ideas to study the market in more depth for analyzing the business opportunities (Malach & Malach, 2014; Shava & Ndebele, 2014; Kweka & Ndibalema, 2018; Owagbemi, 2018; Masciantonio & Berger, 2018; Al-Fadley et al., 2018; Ghanney, 2018). Significantly, the notion of entrepreneurial education defines those social and economic activities which are available in the marketplace, but there is need of the attention for them (Alberti et al., 2004; Young & Sexton, 1997). It is known as a structural process which provides the individuals in the society with core abilities to recognize and understand the commercial prospects, based on the self-esteem with the usage of knowledge and skills for the better success (Jones & English, 2004). In the study of Shepherd & Douglas (1997), it is observed that essence for the entrepreneurial related education is the core ability to work for the starting of new business venture in the market. Authors like Shepherd & Douglas (1997) indicate the fact that factor of declaration explains a significant difference between the enterprise education and entrepreneurial education. As per the suggestion of quality assurance agency for the higher education in United Kingdom, entrepreneurial education deals with the enhancement of student capabilities regarding original business ideas. While the core focus is also to work for the betterment of existing business ideas or to work purely for the new concept which provide long run benefit from the market. Based on the presented literature, it is expressed that entrepreneurial education covers the point of skills and knowledge for the idea generation and its implication. However, enterprise skills and expertise can be generic in nature and have significant influence on the student’s employability (Spinelli & Neck, 2007). To work for the objective of preparing the student community as entrepreneurs, there is a great need for to equip them with skill, expertise, management capabilities, and reasonable business values. As per the suggestions of (Barringer & Ireland, 2008; Mitchelmore & Rowley, 2013), entrepreneurial competencies are very much required to behave in a professional way.

In addition, present literature has done reasonable debate about financial education and financial literacy along with financial expertise. (Lusardi & Mitchell, 2014) developed a model under the title of “life-saving” which considers the key role of financial literacy. While under the title of “traditional utility framework”, it is expressed that several factors like risk, stock market return, earnings, health of the stocks and borrowing options with constrains have their significant influence on the decision-making process. Meanwhile, this model implies that factor of financial literacy can be predicted as the endogenous. Huhmann (2014) states that financial literacy can be explained through three components like basic cognitive ability, present body of financial knowledge and finally the skills for the usage of financial knowledge to get the desired findings or results. In this regard, financial education can be considered as the key tool to develop financial literacy along with core expertise. Some other studies specify a list of financial management and intellectual capabilities. For instance, (Carcello et al., 2006) explains the financial expertise can be reflected in the form of earning management and its integration with the factor of risk. McDaniel et al. (2002) examined the relationship between financial expertise and financial literacy. Some other studies have considered the role of financial management and its integration with entrepreneurship. Notables are (Certo et al., 2009; Julien, 2018; Karadag, 2015; Lee et al., 2018; Murphy et al., 2018; Narli & Oner, 2018; Scarborough, 2016; Tsang & Blevins, 2015; Zahra, 1993:1995).

Variables and Methods

ED develops a room for the employment in the country and provides the chances of success for the business in the market. Various factors are under the title of ED as core skills and capabilities. These include innovativeness which leads the individual to work for something new in the market which in return provides the competitive advantage over the rivals (Hirschman, 1980; Aned & Alya, 2013; Dumbu, 2014; Kamaruddin & Samsudin, 2014; Madar & Hamid, 2014; Hyytinen et al., 2015; Adewale, 2016; Ametorwo, 2016; Obi & Okekeokosisi, 2018; Chang’ach, 2018; Udanoh & Zouria, 2018). Another factor to explains the idea of entrepreneurship development is high achievement which indicates that better financial and non-financial results while utilizing the available resource and business ideas. For the better ED, high commitment is another factor which can reflects its significant contribution in the field of business enterprise. While ED also reflected in the form of high team spirit as explained by (Ribeiro-Soriano & Kraus, 2018) is added in the present study as among the core indicators.

Financial Management Expertise (FME)

Financial management expertise and qualities covers those management capabilities which provides the individual with a comprehensive skill required to run a successful business venture. Various expertises have been identified in the present literature which helps the entrepreneurial to get the success from their ideas.

However, rest of the indicators of entrepreneurship development are insignificant associated with new earning sources. For risk management it is found that ED factors are significantly and positive associated to it. It explains that higher level of financial management expertise in the form of risk taking and controlling leads to better development of entrepreneurship in the students. While factor of cost controlling implies its significant and positive impact on innovativeness as observed for EDFI. For FM6 as reflected through efficient utilization of funds explains that higher achievement in the business is positively associated to it. Meanwhile for team spirit, effect of efficient usage of funds has an impact of 0.589 which suggests its significant but positive influence. While the factor of capital budgeting implies that better and long-term investment decision in the fixed assets are positively affecting higher achievements, high business commitment, and initiative capabilities in the student community of various public-sector universities of Kuwait (Rafinandi & Kondo, 2018).

The factor of cash flow management is assumed to the significant expertise in the field of financial management (Abotsi, 2018). In present study, FM8 indicates its significance for all the proxies of ED. It implies that higher level of cash flow management can leads to the increasing level of innovativeness in the business with the coefficient of 0.0176. While for the higher achievements, it has a negative but insignificant influence. For higher commitment, cash flow management is significantly and positively associated with the standard error of 0.0597. For initiative as reflected under the title of EDF4, significantly positive impact of 0.00574 is observed for the whole sample of study, meanwhile the factor of risk return trade off implies that higher commitment can be achieved if there is reasonable balance between the factor of uncertainties and business earnings over time. The rest of the indicators of ED are insignificantly associated with risk return trade-off. For the better management in the business, capital structure components can affect both short run and long run performance (Atici, 2018). It is found that capital structure management is significantly and positively associated with higher level of commitment. It implies that more commitment as entrepreneurship development indicator can be observed with more level of managing debt and equity mixture in the business over time. While the factors of initiative, and team spirit has a negative coefficient of 0.102 and 0.0913. It means that both initiative and team spirit can be adversely affected by capital structure and its management in the business. While for the time value of the money, both higher achievement and commitment has their significant and positive linkage. The factor of budget and forecasting is also assumed as significant determinant in the field of financial management. For FM12, it is observed that higher level of achievement, initiative and team spirit as associated to it. The coefficients for all these factors are found to be 0.168, 0.191 and 0.167 respectively. For the factor of working capital management, it is observed that higher innovativeness, achievement and higher commitment can be possible through cash and short-term asset’s management proficiencies. The 2^nd last factor of financial management is considered for the management of liquidity in the business, where respondents have been observed through their valid responses. It is found that only the factor of team spirit is positively associated with the liquidity management with the coefficient of 0.104. The last factor indicates overall expertise of financial management which is examined for the five dimensions of entrepreneurship development. It is examined that factors under the title of EDF1 or innovativeness, higher achievement or EDF2 and initiative are significantly and positively associated to it. Under each of the applied model for ED and FM relationship, highest explanatory power is observed for EDF3 which indicates an overall change of 69.1 percent in higher commitment due to all proxies of financial management expertise. While for the team spirit it has explained an overall variation of 52.3%, for higher achievements is 0.601 as well. All the stated models are observed with the sample of 305 respondents which are considered through structural format of questionnaire.

Conclusion

Throughout the life span of the business, financial capabilities can play their vital role either someone is working with the running business or going to start a new venture. As per the detailed review of existing literature, the field of financial management is significantly associated with the success or failure of the business. Various items can reflect as core financial management expertise and positively link towards the development of new business ideas. However, successful and growing business venture considers the proactive approach towards the financial management and its association with the strategic planning. The focus of present study is to explore the relationship between financial management capabilities and its link with the entrepreneurship development indictors in the region of Kuwait. To address this objective, a structural questionnaire is developed and presented to various students in the field of business and financial management in public sector universities. Overall sample of 305 respondents is finally observed and both descriptive and empirical findings are calculated through SPSS-22 version. Under descriptive findings, financial management qualities are presented to the students are their acceptance level is reviewed through five-point likert scale. It is found that factors like knowledge for the commercial and legal aspects of the business, risk taking abilities, need for the power are of the core interest for the students who are dealing with the financial management studies. Meanwhile factors like cash and time management are observed as under little attention of the students.

Besides, some influential factors/barriers are also reviewed from respondent’s point of view. It is found that capital convenience is found to be very much influencing with the percentage acceptance of 15.1 under full sample. The outcome for the bad experience of other implies that it has 16.1 percent somewhat influence on the mindset of the students as key influential factor/barrier while personal bad experience implies 16.4 percent of very much influence on the students. Some other factors like caste, corruption, educational background, government policies and fear of failure are also added in the questionnaire. In addition, as the focus of study is on the student’s attitude towards entrepreneurship development, some topics are presented under the title of business plans, ideas, case studies, finance, HR and marketing to check their level of influence. It is found that business plans in the development of entrepreneurship is highly focused by the students, leading by business ideas, case studies and finance studies. Finally, empirical facts are presented for the five factors of entrepreneurship development and fifteen items of financial management expertise. Finding indicates that producing accurate financial information put significant and positive influence on all five indicators of ED. While for the risk management, factor like team spirit is significantly but negatively associated. Fund management in the business also plays their significant role and similar positive influence is observed for ED except for the innovativeness. Meanwhile, for the better development of new business venture, financial management expertise like capital structure, and risk return trade off should also be under management observation.

Based on the stated findings, present study has done enough contribution in the literature from the context of financial management and entrepreneurship in the region of Kuwait. For the development of better approaches in the form of entrepreneurship, reasonable attention is required towards its link with the financial management expertise. Various experts in the field of financial management and entrepreneurship can get the benefits from these findings as presented in this study. Beside, these findings have their practical implication for the financial professionals for the improvement of educational background while focusing on both FM and ED. These findings indicate that financial education is very much effective in raising the confidence towards the financial knowledge, developing positive financial behaviors and finally successful business units. As the student community is directly associated with both FM and ED, administration in the universities can lead towards strategic decision making. For more success in the market, significant attention is required for the development of entrepreneurial attitude in the mindset of the students. However, this study is based on the various limitations as well. At first, some public-sector universities have been selected while ignoring the private sector institutes dealing with the financial management courses and enterprise development. These institutes can also be considered for the future research. At second, sample size is not enough as per the overall population of student community in Kuwait. Increasing sample portion in coming time can provide more significant findings. At third, role of entrepreneurship enhancement cell or EEC is also ignored in the present which is emerging concept in developed economies. Various universities in Europe has developed a separate field under EEC. Future research can be conducted while adding the significance or presence of EEC in various public and private sector universities in Kuwait.
