This study aims to examine the effect of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) disclosure and energy price volatility on stock returns of energy sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2022–2024 period. A quantitative approach was employed using multiple linear regression as the analytical method. The sample consisted of 10 energy companies selected through purposive sampling, based on the availability of sustainability reports, stock price data, and research completeness. The results indicate that ESG disclosure has a positive and significant effect on stock returns, suggesting that companies with higher sustainability transparency tend to gain stronger investor confidence. Energy price volatility also shows a positive and significant effect on stock returns, reflecting the sector’s sensitivity to global energy price dynamics. Simultaneously, both variables significantly influence stock returns, although the relatively low coefficient of determination implies that other factors should also be considered. This study highlights the importance of integrating internal factors (ESG) and external factors (energy price volatility) for investors when making investment decisions in the energy sector.

The purpose of this study is to identify the variables that affect profit growth.  Profit growth is the study's dependent variable, and premium income, claim payments, risk-based capital, and investment returns are its independent variables.  Information was gathered from insurance firms that were listed between 2019 and 2023 on the Indonesia Stock Exchange.  Ten businesses that satisfied specific requirements made up the study's sample.  To get a complete picture of the link between one variable and another, multiple linear regression analysis was employed as the study approach, with a 5% confidence level.  The factors Premium Income, Claim Payments, Risk-Based Capital, and Investment Returns all had a somewhat significant impact on Profit Growth, according to the partial test results. The factors Premium Income, Claim Payments, Risk-Based Capital, and Investment Returns all had a substantial impact on Profit Growth at the same time, according to the results of the simultaneous test.  It is anticipated that other businesses listed on the BEI will use the study's findings as a guide to focus more on financial ratios in order to boost their profits.
