The purpose of this research is to test and analyze the relationship between Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) and financial performance. The variables used in this research are Environmental, Social, and Governance as independent variables with the dependent variable being financial performance, which is proxied by ROA, ROE, and ROCE. The sampling technique used was non-probability sampling, purposive sampling so that there were 21 companies registered on Kompas 100 as samples observed from 2017 to 2022. The data analysis method in this research used Spearman correlation. The results of the Spearman correlation test inform that environmental is related to financial performance, which is proxied by ROE, ROA, and ROCE. Social and ROE have a relationship and have no relationship with ROA and ROCE. Governance and ROA are related but not ROE and ROCE. Based on these results, companies must continue to pay attention to and strive to implement ESG so that in the long term they can improve their financial performance.

This study presents a bibliometric analysis of the dynamic relationship between Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), political connections, and sustainability. CSR has evolved from philanthropy to an important business strategy, driven by consumer demands and government regulations. Political connections influence the implementation of CSR, either facilitating or hindering it, depending on a country's governance system. Sustainability, measured by ESG pillars, is essential for competitiveness and long-term performance. Using the PRISMA and VOSviewer methodologies, 87 documents from Scopus were analyzed, revealing a significant increase in publications since 2019, with China and Indonesia as the main contributors. These findings identify 23 topic clusters, highlighting government interventions, green innovation, and sustainability reporting in enhancing CSR performance and corporate sustainability. This research provides significant theoretical and practical contributions to the CSR literature.

As global attention to sustainability increases, the implementation of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles has become increasingly important in the business world. However, the social aspect of ESG is often overlooked compared to environmental and governance aspects. This study aims to identify and analyze the challenges faced by companies in implementing the social aspect of ESG through a literature review of various academic sources. The findings indicate that companies encounter challenges such as limited understanding, resource constraints, organizational cultural barriers, regulatory uncertainty, and stakeholder pressure. This research provides insights into the obstacles and potential strategies that companies can adopt to address them. However, the study is limited by its reliance on literature alone, highlighting the need for future research using primary quantitative or qualitative data to strengthen these findings.

This study aims to understand how sustainable accounting practices can improve the transparency of reports related to environmental, social, and governance (ESG) aspects. This study uses a literature review method by examining 20 relevant previous studies. The discussion results indicate that sustainability accounting helps companies record and report financial and non-financial information transparently, thereby strengthening stakeholder trust and supporting decision-making. Additionally, digital technology enhances the effectiveness of ESG reporting, making it more accessible and accurate. Sustainability accounting is proven to be important not only for transparency but also for long-term business sustainability.

Firm value represents the long-term goal of a company, reflecting the prosperity of its stakeholders. One factor indicated to influence firm value is corporate responsibility performance in managing business operational risks, particularly through the implementation and disclosure of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) performance. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the Indonesian government allocated State Capital Participation (PMN) to affected state-owned enterprises (SOEs), which was expected to contribute to the revitalization of national economic recovery. This study aims to analyze the effect of ESG performance on firm value in both SOEs and non-SOEs listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the 2020–2023 period. Stakeholder theory and signaling theory are used as the theoretical frameworks for analyzing and interpreting the research findings. The sample consisted of 28 observations for SOEs and 152 for non-SOEs, selected using purposive sampling. Firm value was measured using the Tobin’s Q ratio, while ESG performance was assessed based on Refinitiv scores. The data were analyzed using independent sample t-tests and multiple linear regression analysis with SPSS version 29. The results show significant mean differences in environmental and social performance between SOEs and non-SOEs, while governance performance did not differ significantly. Social and governance performance had a significant positive effect on firm value in both SOEs and non-SOEs. However, environmental performance had a significantly positive effect only in non-SOEs and a significantly negative effect in SOEs. Thus, the environmental performance strategies implemented by non-SOEs could serve as valuable lessons for SOEs.

Corporate Governance and Cross-listing are considered crucial factors in promoting corporate transparency and accountability, particularly in sustainability reporting based on Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) standards. A strong governance structure is believed to enhance the quality of ESG disclosure, while Cross-listing serves as an external pressure that reinforces a company's commitment to global reporting standards. This study aims to examine the influence of board size, board independence, institutional ownership, audit committee size, and Cross-listing status on the quality of ESG disclosure. The research focuses on companies in the energy and basic materials sectors listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2019–2023 period, using ESG data sourced from Bloomberg. The sample consists of 18 companies with a total of 73 observations selected through purposive sampling. Hypotheses were tested using multiple linear regression analysis. The results show that board size, board independence, institutional ownership, and Cross-listing have a positive and significant effect on the quality of ESG disclosure. Conversely, audit committee size has a negative and significant effect. These findings indicate that both internal pressure through governance mechanisms and external pressure through Cross-listing on foreign exchanges play an important role in driving the quality of corporate ESG disclosure.

This article discusses the impact of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) integration on the general insurance underwriting model. This study used a Narrative Literature Review (NLR) to review relevant literature. The NLR review was conducted on scientific publications, industry reports, regulatory documents related to ESG, and general insurance underwriting from 2019 to 2025. The reviewed literature shows that adopting ESG factors in the underwriting process changes risk assessment and creates more sustainable practices in the insurance industry. The analysis results show that companies with higher ESG scores have better underwriting performance and attract more investment while increasing stakeholder trust, including an increasing trend of ESG factor integration into the underwriting process, especially in risk assessment and premium determination. Regulatory changes encourage insurance companies to adopt underwriting practices that consider more environmental and social aspects. This study also identifies challenges in implementation, including the limited standardized ESG data and the need to increase human resource capacity. The implications of this study provide insights for regulators and industry players in developing underwriting policies and strategies that are more responsive to ESG issues, as well as highlighting opportunities for ESG-based insurance product innovation in the future.

The purpose of this research is to analyze Indonesian retail investors' perceptions of ESG implementation post the latest regulations, their experiences in detecting greenwashing, and the factors influencing these aspects. The research employed a qualitative approach using online data such as sustainability reports, news, surveys, and forums. The results indicate that retail investors' understanding of ESG varies, with a relatively low level of trust in corporate claims due to concerns about greenwashing. They rely on diverse information sources and use subjective ESG assessment criteria. Investors' experiences in identifying potential greenwashing are marked by the discovery of inconsistent information and suspicion towards specific indicators; however, actions taken vary and are often hindered by limitations. These perceptions and experiences are influenced by investor characteristics, the quality of information sources, regulatory effectiveness, corporate communication practices, and social and media influence. This research concludes the necessity for enhanced ESG literacy, reporting standardization, stricter oversight, and transparent communication to build trust and promote sustainable investment in Indonesia.

This study examines the effect of ESG disclosure on firm value and the moderating role of competitive advantage in energy sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during 2020–2023. Using a quantitative approach with purposive sampling and multiple linear regression analysis, the results show that ESG disclosure has a positive and significant effect on firm value. However, when competitive advantage is introduced as a moderating variable, the direct effect of ESG becomes insignificant, while the interaction between ESG disclosure and competitive advantage shows a positive and significant impact on firm value. These findings imply that ESG practices alone may not be sufficient to enhance firm value unless accompanied by a strong competitive position. The study highlights the importance of integrating ESG strategies with the company’s core competencies to maximize value creation, particularly in highly competitive industries like energy.

This study investigates the impact of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) and Environmental Management Accounting (EMA) on firm value, with Green Innovation (GI) as a moderating variable. The research is based on secondary data from manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) from 2021 to 2023, analyzed using path analysis with a moderated regression approach in SPSS. The findings reveal that ESG has a significant but negative impact on firm value, suggesting that ESG investments may be perceived as cost burdens in the short term. Meanwhile, EMA does not have a significant effect on firm value, indicating that its role in firm valuation remains unclear. The moderating role of GI does not significantly strengthen the relationship between ESG and firm value, while the interaction between EMA and GI negatively affects firm value,implying that green innovation strategies may introduce additional financial burdens. These findings highlight the complexity of sustainability investments and emphasize the need for a balanced approach to ESG and EMA implementation to optimize long-term firm value. The study contributes to legitimacy and stakeholder theories by demonstrating how sustainability strategies can influence financial outcomes. It provides practical insights for businesses to develop more effective ESG disclosure and EMA implementation strategies that align with investor expectations and long-term firm sustainability

The data is analyzed to identify the relationship between ESG scores and portfolio returns, as well as portfolio risk. Regression analysis and t-test are employed to test the research hypotheses. The findings reveal a positive and significant relationship between ESG integration and the investment portfolio's return of PT Unilever Indonesia Tbk. The regression coefficient of 0.154 indicates that each one-point increase in the ESG score will result in an average increase of 0.154% in the investment portfolio return.

This qualitative literature review examines the influence of index fund ownership on share recall behavior and proxy voting outcomes. Index funds, as passive investors with substantial ownership stakes, have significant power in corporate governance, especially through their voting decisions. Although typically less involved in shareholder activism, their voting behavior can shape corporate outcomes, providing stability in governance. However, the review also highlights concerns about the lack of active scrutiny over management decisions, potentially leading to suboptimal outcomes in companies with weak governance structures. The review compares findings from various studies, emphasizing the evolving role of index funds in corporate governance and their impact on shareholder value. It also discusses the limitations of existing literature and calls for future research to explore the behavior of different types of index funds, as well as the potential influence of ESG factors on corporate decision-making.

Drawing insights from recent studies, the review identifies key governance elements—such as board independence, ethical leadership, and audit committees—that enhance CSR outcomes by fostering accountability and stakeholder alignment. Additionally, emerging governance trends, including digital tools and ESG integration, are examined to understand their impact on CSR performance. Comparative analysis highlights the contextual differences across industries and regions, emphasizing the role of cultural, regulatory, and institutional factors in shaping governance-CSR dynamics. The findings underscore the importance of robust and context-specific governance strategies to optimize CSR initiatives and achieve sustainable development. This review also discusses its limitations and suggests directions for future research, including the integration of emerging technologies and sector-specific analyses.

Mergers and acquisitions (M&A) are widely recognized as strategic instruments for corporate growth, restructuring, and competitive advantage. This semantic review synthesizes recent Scopus‑indexed literature to examine the strategic implications and performance outcomes of M&A. The study highlights that strategic alignment between acquiring and target firms is fundamental to synergy realization, operational efficiency, and innovation. Managerial expertise emerges as a decisive factor, with effective leadership ensuring smooth integration and long‑term value creation. Market dynamics, including economic volatility, regulatory changes, and geopolitical tensions, significantly influence M&A strategies and outcomes, while technological integration accelerates digital transformation and enhances competitive positioning. Cultural fit is identified as a critical determinant of organizational cohesion, with misalignment often leading to employee resistance and reduced productivity. Financial outcomes vary, ranging from profitability improvements through economies of scale to underperformance caused by overestimated synergies or poor integration. Furthermore, environmental, social, and governance (ESG) considerations are increasingly shaping M&A strategies, reinforcing stakeholder trust and sustainable value creation. By adopting a holistic approach that integrates strategic foresight, managerial acumen, market awareness, technological innovation, and sustainability, firms can optimize M&A as a tool for growth and resilience in dynamic global markets.

This study aims to empirically test the effect of Good Corporate Governance (GCG), which is proxied by the audit committee and managerial ownership, and Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG), which is proxied by environmental, social, and governance performance, on company value represented by Price to Book Value (PBV). The data for this study were obtained from the financial statements of 324 companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the period 2020-2023. Data analysis was carried out using descriptive statistical methods, classical assumption tests, and normality tests with the help of SPSS software. The results of the study indicate that the ESG variable as a whole does not have a significant effect on company value. In contrast, the GCG variable was found to have a significant effect on company value. This finding indicates that the implementation of good governance through the existence of an audit committee and effective managerial ownership can increase company value. However, environmental, social, and governance performance as measured in the ESG framework has not shown a significant role in influencing company value. This research contributes to the development of literature on the relationship between GCG, ESG, and corporate value, and serves as a reference for corporate management and investors in making strategic decisions based on good governance.

Technology companies face the dynamic challenge of improving financial performance while meeting sustainability expectations. This research aims to analyze the contribution of ESG (Environmental, social, and governance) disclosure, corporate governance, operational efficiency, and the use of AI to the financial performance of technology companies. The research method uses a quantitative approach with multiple linear regression analysis, using secondary data from annual reports of technology companies listed on the IDX during 2018–2023. The research results show that ESG disclosure positively influences a company's reputation and access to capital. Good governance increases transparency and accountability, while operational efficiency and the application of AI have proven significant in optimizing productivity and innovation. In conclusion, these four factors support each other in creating added value and competitiveness for technology companies in the global market. These findings imply the importance of an integrated strategy in managing sustainability, operational and technological aspects to achieve sustainable financial performance.

E The integration of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles into e-procurement systems offers a pathway to achieving sustainable public procurement in Indonesia. This study explores relevant ESG criteria and formulates strategies to enhance the capacity of procurement personnel in implementing these principles. The findings highlight the importance of incorporating environmental criteria such as energy efficiency, eco-friendly materials, and waste management; social criteria like labor standards compliance, local MSME empowerment, and gender equality; and governance criteria including transparency, anti-corruption, and tax compliance. While e-procurement provides a digital platform to improve efficiency and transparency, challenges such as limited awareness, capacity gaps, and the absence of specific ESG guidelines hinder effective implementation. To address these issues, the study proposes strategic measures, including the development of ESG-based evaluation systems, comprehensive training programs for procurement personnel, and robust monitoring frameworks. These initiatives aim to align procurement practices with the principles of Sustainable Public Procurement (SPP), ensuring that procurement contributes to environmental sustainability, social equity, and better governance. By overcoming existing barriers and fostering collaboration among stakeholders, Indonesia can position itself as a leader in sustainable procurement practices. This research provides practical recommendations to integrate ESG into procurement systems, paving the way for a more accountable, equitable, and sustainable procurement framework.

In the modern era, companies are assessed not only based on financial performance but also on how they manage environmental, social, and governance (ESG) impacts. ESG disclosure has become a key consideration for investors in evaluating corporate sustainability, particularly in the food and beverage sector in Indonesia. This study aims to analyze the effect of ESG disclosure on the profitability of food and beverage companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX). The research employs a quantitative method with a multiple linear regression approach to analyze panel data. Data were obtained from annual reports and sustainability reports of companies for the 2021-2023 period. The research sample was selected using a purposive sampling method based on ESG disclosure criteria and the availability of profitability data. The analysis includes descriptive statistics, classical assumption tests (normality, multicollinearity, heteroscedasticity, and autocorrelation), as well as hypothesis testing using t-tests and F-tests. The findings reveal that, partially, the environmental, social, and governance disclosure variables do not have a significant effect on profitability (measured by Return on Assets/ROA). Simultaneously, these three variables also show no significant relationship with company profitability. The low coefficient of determination (R² = 0.018) indicates that profitability variance is predominantly influenced by factors outside of ESG disclosure.

The human resources and management system department is one of the departments in the company that has an important role in managing the company. One thing that must be considered is the suitability of work between employees and the abilities possessed by each employee. When employees get jobs that match their abilities, the work can be completed more efficiently. The purpose of this study is to divide work to employees so that 1 job will be done by 1 employee using the application of Hall's Theorem. If each subset of the set  satisfies the conditions of Hall's Theorem, then the theorem guarantees complete matching. Based on the application of Hall's Theorem, it was found that there was complete matching of the bipartite graph in this problem so that 1 job can be assigned to only 1 employee, namely SMS assigned to employee A, AR assigned to employee B, PSB assigned to employee C, ESGS assigned to employee D, PG assigned to employee E, PR by employee F, MK by employee G, and JSAP by employee H.
