Rapid adoption of cashless payments has reshaped everyday spending, especially among young consumers. While e-wallets deliver speed and convenience, constant exposure to discounts, cashbacks, and one-click checkouts may also foster more frequent discretionary purchases. This study examines the relationship between e-wallet usage intensity and consumptive lifestyle, focusing on how convenience and promotional stimuli relate to spending tendencies. Using a cross-sectional online survey of students and early-career workers, we collected self-reports on payment habits and consumption patterns with validated Likert-type instruments. Data were screened and analyzed with correlation and linear regression after basic assumption checks. The results indicate a positive and statistically meaningful association between e-wallet usage and consumptive lifestyle; respondents who transact more often via e-wallets tend to report stronger preferences for instant gratification, hedonic purchases, and impulse buying. Convenience features (e.g., stored cards, fast checkout) and promotional exposure (e.g., limited-time deals) emerged as salient correlates of the relationship. The findings add contextual evidence from Indonesia’s digital economy and suggest practical implications for users, platforms, and educators. Financial-wellbeing interventions such as digital budgeting tips, in-app nudges, spend limits, or post-purchase reflections may help align seamless payments with healthier consumption decisions. Future work can test causal mechanisms and evaluate design features that encourage prudent, goal-consistent spending without diminishing user experience.

This community service program aims to develop an empowerment model for Etawa goat milk micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in Kepuh Klagen Village, Wringinanom District, Gresik Regency through an Islamic Social Entrepreneurship (ISE) approach. Kepuh Klagen Village has significant economic potential in Etawa goat farming; however, MSME actors face several challenges, including limited halal-thayyib-based production capacity, low literacy in Islamic business management and finance, weak branding and marketing strategies, and the absence of sustainable collaboration among farmers. This program employed a participatory approach through mentoring, training, and capacity building activities. The implementation stages included identifying potentials and problems, providing training on Islamic Social Entrepreneurship values and Islamic business ethics, improving production quality based on halal-thayyib standards, strengthening Islamic financial management practices, and developing digital marketing capabilities. The results indicate an increase in MSME actors’ understanding of Islamic social entrepreneurship, improvements in production hygiene and product quality, and the emergence of collaborative awareness among Etawa goat milk entrepreneurs. The ISE approach proved effective not only in enhancing economic value but also in strengthening social responsibility, spiritual values, and business sustainability. This empowerment model is expected to be replicable for other local commodity-based MSMEs in rural areas.

This research offers an in-depth examination of three primary Sharia monetary tools—Sukuk, the Sharia Interbank Money Market (PUAS), and Sharia Repo—aimed at enhancing the resilience of Islamic financial systems in Indonesia. Through a descriptive review of existing literature, the paper details Sukuk as asset-supported securities for medium- to long-term funding, PUAS operations grounded in mudharabah and wakalah agreements for brief interbank dealings, and Sharia Repo via SBSN sell-and-buyback arrangements to streamline Sharia bank liquidity. Results indicate these tools work in tandem to handle surplus funds, curb inflation, and bolster Bank Indonesia's monetary framework absent any speculative practices. Policy recommendations emphasize advancing education efforts, regulatory innovations, and infrastructural upgrades to promote equitable expansion within Sharia finance.

This study aims to analyze in-depth the interest of the Setro Village community in choosing PNM Mekaar Syariah financing as a source of capital for micro and small enterprises (MSMEs). This phenomenon is interesting because it shows how economic, social, and spiritual factors contribute to the financial decisions of rural communities. This research was conducted using a qualitative exploratory approach, using case studies and in-depth interviews with key informants. To explain the relationship between attitudes, subjective norms, and behavioral control on community intentions to choose Islamic financing, data analysis was conducted thematically. The Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) framework was also used. The study shows that positive community perceptions of ease of access, economic benefits, and compliance with Islamic principles are the main factors shaping community interest in PNM Mekaar Syariah. Fast, easy, and uncomplicated financing increases consumer trust and enhances perceived behavioral control. Conversely, increased business capital and family income enhance the sustainability of micro-enterprises. The institution is given moral legitimacy and spiritual conviction by the implemented Islamic values, such as the yield system and the freedom from usury. Community participation decisions are also driven by social factors such as group support, advice from group leaders, and the quality of service provided by field officers. Theoretically, this study adds local religiosity and socio-cultural aspects to enrich the application of the Theory of Planned Behavior in the context of rural Islamic finance.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is currently a rapidly developing technology in all fields, particularly in finance and the military. This study aims to examine the application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology to support financial report analysis and internal control within Indonesian Navy (TNI AL) work units. Along with the development of information technology, AI has the potential to provide innovative solutions to improve efficiency, accuracy, and transparency in state financial management, particularly in a military environment that demands high accountability. The research method used was descriptive qualitative with a case study approach in several work units within the Indonesian Navy. Data were obtained through interviews, observations, and a review of relevant documents and literature. The results indicate that the use of AI, such as machine learning and data analytics, can identify unusual financial transaction patterns, predict potential irregularities, and improve the effectiveness of internal oversight. However, the implementation of this technology still faces challenges, such as limited digital infrastructure, the need for human resource training, and the need for policies that support sustainable digital transformation. This study recommends the gradual and strategic integration of AI as part of the reform of the Indonesian Navy's financial management system.

The rapid advancement of digital technology has significantly transformed the economic landscape, particularly in payment systems that are shifting from conventional cash transactions to the use of Electronic Money (E-Money). E-Money has become increasingly popular due to the convenience it offers, allowing users to conduct transactions anytime and anywhere without the need to carry physical cash. As this payment innovation continues to expand, it is essential to examine whether its mechanisms comply with Islamic principles, given that the use of E-Money is closely related to the values of muamalah in Islam. This study aims to identify the underlying contractual structure (akad) governing Mandiri E-Money transactions and to assess its conformity with sharia principles. It further analyzes the potential presence of gharar, riba, or maisir within the top-up and transaction processes, as well as the sharia mitigation mechanisms that may be applied. The research employs a normative approach based on classical and contemporary Islamic legal theory, supported by observational analysis of Mandiri E-Money practices. Data were analyzed qualitatively using a descriptive method and maqashid al-shariah reasoning. The findings indicate that the use of Mandiri E-Money does not involve elements of riba, gharar, or maisir, and therefore does not deviate from sharia principles. These potential risks were examined through fiqh legal maxims and DSN-MUI fatwas to ensure comprehensive sharia compliance.

Fraudulent investment is a phenomenon that has become widespread among Indonesian society. The PKK mothers in Rt 5 Rw 2, Gayamsari sub-district, have not yet gained any knowledge or understanding about the dangers of fraudulent investments and their characteristics, nor have they received any knowledge or understanding related to financial literacy that could protect their families from the dangers of fraudulent investments. The PKK of Gayamsari sub-district urgently needs socialization on strategies to prevent being affected by fraudulent investments and to recognize the signs of such investments. In addition to fraudulent investments, they also feel the need to receive socialization about financial literacy and the characteristics of legal and safe investments, so that they can prevent becoming victims of fraudulent investments. Based on the problems that occur, solutions are needed to address them. The purpose of this community service activity is to provide understanding and knowledge about financial literacy so as not to fall into fraudulent investments. Partners are also given an understanding of safe and legal investments to avoid the dangers of fraudulent investments. The expected outcome of this service activity for the mothers of the PKK in Gayamsari sub-district is to understand the importance of financial literacy and the dangers of fraudulent investments along with their characteristics. It is hoped that the PKK mothers in Gayamsari sub-district will be wise in managing family finances by choosing safe investments for the future of their household and family, as well as being able to prevent becoming victims of fraudulent investment scams.

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a global agenda that emphasizes the importance of balancing economic growth, social justice, and environmental sustainability. In Indonesia, the primary challenge in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) lies in the limited financing of sustainable development projects. Sukuk, particularly green sukuk, is a sharia-compliant financial instrument with the potential to provide an alternative solution to support funding for environmentally friendly projects and green infrastructure. This study aims to analyze the role of sukuk in financing sustainable development, identify its potential and implementation challenges, and compare it with other national financial instruments. This study employed a library research method through a literature review of books, scientific journals, articles, and empirical data related to sukuk development. The results show that demand for sukuk is increasing compared to conventional bonds and provides a competitive financing alternative based on sharia principles. However, its implementation still faces obstacles such as financial literacy, regulatory readiness, market liquidity, and limited institutional coordination. Strengthening regulations and stakeholder collaboration are necessary for sukuk to effectively support the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

The management of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) in the banking sector holds strategic importance in strengthening public trust, supporting sustainable development, and ensuring that the distribution of CSR funds aligns with principles of good governance. However, CSR implementation among Indonesian banks continues to face fundamental issues, including limited transparency, inconsistent reporting standards, and weak supervisory mechanisms. This study aims to analyze the synergy between the Financial Services Authority (OJK) and the banking industry in establishing transparent and accountable CSR fund management. Using a normative legal approach combined with institutional analysis, the findings reveal that although OJK has issued sustainable finance regulations such as POJK No. 51/POJK.03/2017, these regulations have not fully ensured the integrity and accountability of CSR distribution. Strengthening reporting standards, ensuring independent audits, and integrating a digital CSR reporting system are essential to enhance oversight. This study proposes a regulatory–institutional synergy model between OJK and the banking sector to build CSR governance that is transparent, participatory, and impact-oriented.  

This study aims to analyze the effect of financial literacy and financial inclusion on the financial management of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in Makale District. Sound financial management is an important factor for the sustainability and growth of MSMEs; therefore, an empirical examination of the factors influencing it is necessary. This study employs a quantitative approach using a survey method. Data analysis is conducted through multiple linear regression with the assistance of SPSS statistical software version 26. The research population includes all MSME actors in Makale District, with a sample of 88 respondents selected using a random sampling technique to ensure equal participation opportunities. The independent variables in this study are financial literacy and financial inclusion, while the dependent variable is MSME financial management. The results indicate that financial literacy has a positive and significant partial effect on MSME financial management. This finding suggests that the better MSME actors understand financial concepts and practices, the better their ability to manage business finances. In contrast, financial inclusion does not have a significant partial effect on financial management. However, financial literacy and financial inclusion simultaneously have a significant effect on financial management. The coefficient of determination of 69.3% indicates that most of the variation in MSME financial management can be explained by these two variables. This study concludes that improving financial literacy is a key factor in enhancing MSME financial management.

Financial management and administration have an important role in maintaining the sustainability and quality of educational institutions. Effective financial management is one of the indicators of good institutional governance and has a direct effect on the quality of educational services. This study aims to analyze the implementation of financial management and administration in MTs Muhammadiyah 3 Al-Furqon Banjarmasin. The research method used is descriptive qualitative with data collection techniques through in-depth interviews, direct observations, and documentation studies. The results of the study show that the financial management of madrasah has been carried out systematically and transparently with a clear division of duties between the head of the madrasah, the treasurer, and the school committee. The use of the Madrasah Activity Plan and Budget (RKAM) digital application has been proven to increase efficiency, accuracy, and administrative order in financial reporting. However, there are still several obstacles, such as delays in the disbursement of School Operational Assistance (BOS) funds and limited internet networks. Good cooperation between madrassas and foundations also plays a role in maintaining the sustainability of educational programs. Overall, the madrasah financial system reflects the principles of transparency, accountability, and professionalism in the management of education finances.

This study aims to analyze the implementation of the Economic Entity Principle in the micro, small, and medium enterprise (MSME) Kedai Kita, which still relies on a simple financial recording system. The principle emphasizes the importance of separating personal and business finances to ensure that financial statements accurately and objectively reflect the entity's economic condition. The research employs a qualitative method with a descriptive approach through direct interviews with the business owner to gain an in-depth understanding of the financial management practices implemented. The findings indicate that the application of the Economic Entity Principle at Kedai Kita has not been fully realized, as evidenced by the ongoing mixing of personal and business funds, the absence of a formal bookkeeping system, and inconsistent recording of cash flows and expenditures. The main factors hindering the implementation of this principle include limited accounting literacy, lack of time for bookkeeping, and the absence of a structured accounting system. Nevertheless, the business owner has begun to recognize the importance of separating finances as a foundation for more accountable business management. These findings imply the need for the adoption of simple recording applications, the provision of basic accounting training, and increased understanding among MSME actors regarding the benefits of structured financial statements. This study provides practical contributions for other MSMEs by demonstrating that the implementation of the Economic Entity Principle is a fundamental step in enhancing financial transparency and accountability, as well as strengthening opportunities for access to formal financing.

The mentoring program was implemented to address issues related to the low practice of financial recordkeeping and the suboptimal utilization of digital marketing among Aisyah Laundry MSMEs in Dusun Gatak. The objective of this activity was to implement a simple financial recording system, build a basic understanding of the separation between personal and business finances, and introduce digital marketing strategies aimed at enhancing business management effectiveness. The methods employed included a participatory approach through initial condition observation, socialization of the benefits of recordkeeping, training in the use of simple bookkeeping formats, digital content training, and outcome evaluation. The results demonstrated a significant improvement in the regularity of daily transaction recording, administrative skills, and the establishment of a more systematic financial management pattern. In the marketing aspect, activation of the business’s Instagram account contributed to expanded service information outreach, increased customer interest, and a shift in the business owner's perspective regarding the importance of digital media. These findings affirm that hands-on mentoring is effective in improving financial and digital literacy among MSMEs and in encouraging sustainable changes in business behavior.

This study examines the relationship between market efficiency and digital financial innovation in the context of global financial transformation over the past decade, when fintech, cryptocurrency, and Decentralized Finance (DeFi) have significantly altered price formation and information dissemination mechanisms. The main issue raised is whether the Efficient Market Hypothesis (EMH) theory remains relevant in the face of digital market dynamics characterized by high volatility, speculative behavior, and regulatory uncertainty. The objective of this study is to assess the impact of digital innovation on information efficiency, price transparency, and the stability of modern financial markets. The study used the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method, examining 15 scientific articles published between 2015 and 2025 from various academic databases. The findings indicate that digital technology increases access and speed of information distribution, but does not always result in consistently efficient markets. Crypto and DeFi markets have been shown to exhibit fluctuating efficiency due to price anomalies, information asymmetry, and weak regulation. Overall, the literature synthesis confirms that market efficiency in the digital era is dynamic and influenced by the interaction between technology, investor behavior, and governance quality. This study concludes that the EMH remains relevant as a basic framework, but needs reinterpretation to suit the complex and rapidly changing characteristics of digital markets.

This study aims to assess the quality of financial reporting at the Arda Jaya Diesel car repair shop on Jalan Dg Hayo Antang 3. The data used are numerical data or quantitative methods. The study was conducted by collecting data from the repair shop's financial reports, such as revenue, expenses, debt, inventory, and fixed assets. The assessment was carried out by examining whether the repair shop has followed accounting principles, how to record transactions, and whether the profit and loss statements and balance sheets are accurate and reliable. The method used is a case study supported by interviews and direct observations at the repair shop. The results show that many repair shops still record their finances simply and do not follow proper accounting standards. Therefore, financial reports need to be improved to assist business decision-making and meet the reporting needs of external parties such as creditors and investors.

Law enforcement in the context of recovering state finances does not solely focus on corruption offenses, but also on administrative errors that may potentially cause losses to the state. The State Attorney (Jaksa Pengacara Negara/JPN) holds strategic authority through legal audits to identify, assess, and provide recommendations regarding potential state financial losses arising from administrative actions inconsistent with applicable regulations. This research formulates two main issues: first, how the legal authority of JPN is applied in conducting legal audits on administrative errors potentially causing state financial losses; second, what legal mechanisms are employed by JPN in conducting legal audits on such administrative errors. The findings of this study indicate that the implementation of legal authority by JPN through legal audits aims to ensure that every aspect of authority, procedure, and substance in governmental decision-making, as well as in the procurement of goods and services, complies with legal provisions, starting from the needs identification stage up to the final handover of work results. This is essential for JPN to accurately determine administrative errors that may potentially cause state financial losses and to formulate them in a legal audit report. The mechanism for resolving legal audit findings is carried out through coordination between JPN and the Government Internal Supervisory Apparatus (APIP) to determine the amount of potential losses. Subsequently, JPN provides recommendations to the applicant to return the potential losses to the state or regional treasury.

This study investigates the impact of green accounting practices on corporate environmental performance, with a focus on manufacturing firms in Indonesia. Green accounting, which involves the identification, measurement, and reporting of environmental costs, is increasingly recognized as a strategic tool for enhancing corporate accountability and sustainability. However, in developing countries, its implementation remains limited and fragmented. Using a qualitative approach, this research explores how green accounting mechanisms are integrated into corporate decision-making processes and how they influence key environmental performance indicators such as energy efficiency and waste reduction. Data were collected through semi structured interviews with environmental and finance managers from five companies actively participating in the PROPER environmental rating program. Thematic analysis revealed that firms with advanced environmental accounting practices achieved higher energy savings and waste reduction outcomes, as well as superior PROPER ratings. These improvements are directly linked to the strategic use of environmental data in operational planning and investment decisions. Nonetheless, challenges such as the lack of technical guidelines, insufficient human resources, and the absence of standardized frameworks remain significant barriers to broader adoption. The study contributes to the growing literature on sustainability accounting in emerging economies and offers practical implications for policymakers and corporate practitioners seeking to institutionalize green accounting as part of sustainable business governance.
