Indonesia ranks second as the world’s largest fishery-producing country. However, this potential contrasts with the relatively small and stagnant contribution of fishery exports to the GDP each year when compared to other export commodities in the agricultural sector. This study aims to determine the export competitiveness of fisheries and the effect of Indonesia’s GDP, the GDP of destination countries, Indonesia’s population growth rate, the population growth rate of destination countries, and economic distance simultaneously and partially on the value of Indonesia’s fishery exports to 20 destination countries. This research uses panel data, consisting of cross-section and time series data for the period 2018–2022. The data analysis technique employs panel data regression with the assistance of the Eviews-12 analysis tool. The results show that Indonesia’s GDP, the GDP of destination countries, Indonesia’s population growth rate, the population growth rate of destination countries, and economic distance simultaneously have an effect on Indonesia’s fishery exports. The population growth rate of destination countries has no effect on fishery exports, while economic distance has a significant negative effect on Indonesia’s fishery exports.

Consumptive behavior refers to the tendency of individuals to purchase goods or services excessively, driven not by need but by the desire for personal satisfaction. University students are particularly vulnerable to such behavior, especially given the ease of access to e-commerce platforms and limitations in personal financial management. Pocket money received and students’ level of financial literacy are key factors shaping their consumption patterns. This study analyzes the effects of e-commerce, pocket money, and financial literacy on the consumptive behavior of undergraduate students in the Development Economics Study Program at Udayana University. A quantitative approach was employed, using a survey of 90 respondents selected through stratified random sampling. Data were analyzed using multiple linear regression. The results show that, jointly, e-commerce, pocket money, and financial literacy significantly affect students’ consumptive behavior. Partially, e-commerce and pocket money have positive effects, whereas financial literacy has a negative effect. This indicates that higher financial literacy reduces the tendency toward consumptive behavior.

Firm value reflects investors’ perception of a company’s success, which is generally measured through its stock price. To enhance firm value, companies are required to manage their operations with integrity, efficiency, and professionalism, while safeguarding stakeholders’ interests through the implementation of Good Corporate Governance (GCG). GCG establishes a framework governing the relationships among shareholders, management, creditors, and the government in relation to their respective rights and responsibilities. In addition to GCG, environmental performance also plays an important role in influencing firm value. Effective corporate management should therefore align with the three dimensions of the Triple Bottom Line framework: profit, people, and planet. This study aims to obtain empirical evidence on the effect of Good Corporate Governance implementation and environmental performance on firm value. The research was conducted on manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2021–2024 period. A total of 41 companies were selected as samples using the purposive sampling method. Data were collected from the official IDX website (www.idx.id) and the respective companies’ official websites. The data were analyzed using multiple linear regression analysis. The results indicate that the independent board of commissioners, board of directors, and environmental performance have a positive and significant effect on firm value. However, the audit committee does not have a significant effect on firm value.

This study aims to analyze the influence of digital marketing on customer loyalty at the Uban Muslim Clothing Store MSME in Cianjur in the context of e-commerce development. The increasingly rapid digital transformation requires MSMEs to adapt to technology-based marketing strategies to be able to compete and retain consumers. This study uses a quantitative approach with a survey technique on 20 adult respondents, both men and women, who have interacted with the store. The research instrument in the form of a questionnaire distributed through Google Forms, measuring two main variables: digital marketing (as an independent variable) and customer loyalty (as a dependent variable). The analysis technique used is simple linear regression. The results of the analysis show that there is a positive influence of digital marketing on customer loyalty, as indicated in the regression equation Y = 3.5226 + 0.582XY = 3.5226 + 0.582XY = 3.5226 + 0.582X.

This study investigates the influence of discount programs, digital marketing strategies, and service quality on prospective students’ decisions to enroll at STIE Surakarta. The increasingly competitive landscape of private higher education in Indonesia requires institutions to formulate effective marketing strategies that can address the expectations and behavioral tendencies of Generation Z. A quantitative approach was employed using survey data from 36 new students selected through purposive sampling based on their participation in discount-based admission programs. The research instruments were validated through correlation tests and demonstrated reliable internal consistency. Data were analyzed using multiple linear regression to identify both partial and simultaneous effects among the variables. The findings reveal that discount offers are the only variable that significantly affects enrollment decisions, indicating that financial incentives remain a dominant consideration for prospective students evaluating private tertiary education options. Meanwhile, digital marketing and service quality, although yielding positive regression coefficients, do not show significant partial effects. However, the three variables collectively have a significant simultaneous effect, suggesting that enrollment decisions are shaped by a combination of economic, promotional, and perceptual factors. The model explains 45.7% of the variance in enrollment decisions.
