Abstract
Intellectual Capital (IC) stimulates corporate competitive advantages that can enhance firm performance and sustainable growth (SG). This study investigates IC’s affinity with and impact on accounting and market performance and SG of listed nonfinancial companies in Bangladesh. Data were collected from 69 nonfinancial companies for five years during 2017–2021, forming 345 observations. Modified Value Added Intellectual Coefficient (MVAIC) and steady-state models consecutively measured IC efficiency and Sustainable Growth Rate (SGR). The Robust fixed effect model was applied to confirm the highest reliable results. Results of MVAIC, Intellectual Capital Efficiency (ICE), and Human Capital Efficiency (HCE) showed a positive affinity with and impact on firm performance and SGR. Structural Capital Efficiency (SCE) showed an insignificant association with and impact on explained variables, whereas Relational Capital Efficiency (RCE) showed a significant negative relationship with and impact on the same. Tangible capital employed efficiency (CEE) enhanced firm performance but failed to confirm sustainable growth. The findings help business executives, government, and policymakers formulate strategic plans for sustainable resource utilization and can create value, competitive edges, and survival for firms. The study recommends that corporate entities should strive to enhance their efficiency in internal structural resources and relational activities to achieve better firm performance and sustainable growth.
