Pengaruh Good Corporate Governance terhadap Kinerja Keuangan dengan CSR Sebagai Variabel Intervening

2024-12-30T01:03:26+00:00

This study aims to examine the impact of implementing Good Corporate Governance (GCG) principles on financial performance, with Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) disclosure acting as a mediating variable. The research focuses on mining companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the period 2021–2023. Financial performance is measured using the Return on Assets (ROA) indicator. The audit committee is assessed based on the number of its members, while institutional ownership is evaluated by the percentage of shares owned by institutions relative to the total shares outstanding. CSR disclosure is analysed using the number of items aligned with the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) standards. The study population consists of 63 companies, from which 25 were selected using a purposive sampling method based on specific criteria. Data were sourced from annual reports available on the IDX and analysed using the Partial Least Square (PLS) method, supported by the WarPLS 8.0 software. The findings reveal that both the audit committee and institutional ownership have a significant positive effect on financial performance. However, CSR disclosure has a significant negative impact on financial performance. Furthermore, the audit committee and institutional ownership significantly and positively influence CSR disclosure. Despite this, CSR disclosure does not mediate the relationship between the audit committee and financial performance, nor between institutional ownership and financial performance. The study underscores the importance of effective corporate governance in enhancing financial outcomes, while also highlighting the need for a more strategic approach to CSR disclosure to create tangible benefits for companies.

Keywords: audit committee, institutional ownership, financial performance, corporate social responsibility.

Temuan Audit Dalam Karakteristik Kepala daerah, Karakteristik Daerah, dan Kinerja Keuangan

2024-12-30T01:03:15+00:00

The complexity and diversity of accountability issues in local financial management, as indicated by audit results, often point to violations of the law and weaknesses in the internal control framework. The purpose of this study is to examine the impact of regional head characteristics, regional characteristics, and financial performance on audit findings. Budget realization reports, balance sheets, and audit findings of local governments in Central Sulawesi Province for the period 2018-2023 are the data observed in this study. Data analysis was carried out with the Structural Equation Modeling-Partial Least Squares (SEM PLS) analysis tool with the WarpPLS version 7.0 application. The results of this study indicate that audit findings are significantly influenced by regional characteristics, regional head characteristics, and financial performance. This study suggests that to reduce audit findings, local governments need to create a strong and integrated internal control system. This requires implementing clear financial management practices as well as increasing the capacity of human resources to help understand and apply appropriate control principles.

Achieving Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) Through Government Effectiveness and Control Over Corruption (A Cross-Country Study)

2024-12-30T01:03:04+00:00

This research is driven by the enormous challenges in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), often hampered by weak governance and rampant corruption in many countries. Therefore, this research aims to determine the impact of controlling corruption and the effectiveness of global governance on achieving SDG 16. The method used in this research is purposive sampling using cross-country quantitative data from 2017 to 2021, with the final sample consisting of 145 countries and a total of 725 observations. Data is collected from various international sources such as the World Bank, Transparency International, Sustainable Development Report, and Human Development Report. Hypotheses were formulated and tested using multiple linear regression analysis using the STATA-17 software program. The research results show that government effectiveness and the Corruption Perception Index (CPI) positively affect achieving SDG 16. Countries that score higher in indicators of government effectiveness and control of corruption tend to make better progress in achieving SDG 16, and vice versa. Therefore, strengthening efforts to achieve SDG 16 requires political reform to strengthen state institutions, increase transparency and accountability, and ensure effective control over anti-corruption.

The Influence of Regional Function Budgets on the Re-Election of Incumbents in Indonesia

2024-12-30T01:02:30+00:00

This research analyzes the impact of budgeting realization on regional functions on the probability of re-election of incumbents in Indonesia in 2014-2020 with a final sample size of 3,440 observations. Through a probit regression analysis approach and case studies in several regions in Indonesia, this research explores the relationship between the size of budget realization for certain functions in the region and the chance of the incumbent returning in the general election. The results of the research show that there is a significant positive and negative correlation between the realization of budgeting for the functions of education, public facilities, and regional culture and tourism and the level of incumbent re-election. These findings highlight the role of budget realization in influencing public perceptions of incumbent performance and regional head election strategies in maintaining their position. The implication of these findings is the need for a deeper understanding of the dynamics of budget politics at the local level as well as the need to ensure transparency and accountability in the use of public budgets to minimize the potential for misuse for political interests. Researchers are expected to be able to analyze further the factors that can influence the incumbent's re-election.
