The development of the digital economy in Indonesia has driven various innovations in the financial services sector, including online lending services (PINJOL) and digital financial platforms. This phenomenon presents both opportunities and challenges for the national financial supervisory system. The Financial Services Authority (OJK), as the institution authorized to regulate and supervise financial services, is required to adapt its role to these dynamics. This study aims to examine the institutional challenges faced by the OJK in carrying out its supervisory function over online lending services and digital financial services in Indonesia. The methods used in this research are normative juridical, with a statute approach, legal theory and institutional theory (Conceptual approach), case approach, and a comparison of fintech supervisory models with those of other countries (Comparative approach). The results of this study are expected to provide an understanding of the OJK's institutional challenges and serve as evaluation material for formulating future digital financial supervisory policies.

This study aims to evaluate the influence of Green Finance, Profitability, and Capital Structure on Firm Value in the mining sector listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the period 2019 to 2023. The research is motivated by the growing importance of sustainability and financial management strategies in enhancing corporate competitiveness in an increasingly globalized market. A quantitative approach was employed using multiple linear regression analysis, with 22 companies selected through purposive sampling. The findings indicate that, simultaneously, the three independent variables have a significant effect on firm value. Individually, Green Finance and Capital Structure have a positive and significant influence, while Profitability does not show a significant impact. Capital Structure is found to be the most dominant factor affecting firm value, followed by Green Finance. This suggests that companies with sound capital management and strong commitment to sustainability practices are more valued by the market. This research contributes to both theoretical and practical perspectives in financial management, particularly in understanding how financing strategies and sustainability efforts influence market valuation. The findings also recommend that mining companies strengthen their integration of ESG principles and enhance financial efficiency to support long-term value creation and competitiveness

In the context of accelerating global economic volatility, organizations are increasingly required to adopt agile business models that enable them to remain competitive and resilient. Although business agility has been extensively discussed from structural and technological perspectives, the strategic role of Human Resources (HR) in shaping agile organizations and addressing the future of work remains insufficiently explored. This study aims to examine how HR contributes to organizational adaptability and resilience in uncertain environments by aligning human capital practices with agile frameworks. Using a mixed-methods approach, data were collected through surveys and semi-structured interviews with HR leaders and employees in industries most exposed to economic disruption, including finance, technology, and manufacturing. The findings reveal four critical dimensions of HR’s role: workforce flexibility achieved through reskilling initiatives and adaptive work arrangements; agile leadership development to enhance decision-making under uncertainty; prioritization of employee well-being and engagement as foundations of organizational resilience; and digital HR transformation leveraging analytics and artificial intelligence to strengthen efficiency and collaboration. These findings validate and extend the existing literature, demonstrating that HR is not merely a supporting or administrative function but a strategic driver of agility. The study concludes that by embedding HR strategies into organizational agility frameworks, companies can better navigate economic turbulence, enhance workforce adaptability, and secure long-term competitiveness in the global market.

This research explores the impact of stock returns, financial literacy, and risk perception on investment decisions among Generation Z investors who use the Ajaib application in Indonesia. The study is driven by the increasing involvement of young digital investors and the growing importance of financial knowledge, risk awareness, and return expectations in shaping their behavior. A total of 250 respondents were surveyed, and the data were processed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The findings reveal that stock returns (β = 0.436, p < 0.001), financial literacy (β = 0.429, p < 0.001), and risk perception (β = 0.209, p = 0.002) each exert a positive and significant influence on investment decisions. The model explains 68% of the variance in investment decisions (R² = 0.626), confirming the robustness of the proposed framework. These results suggest that Gen Z investors with higher financial literacy, stronger risk awareness, and favorable return expectations are more likely to make confident and deliberate investment choices. The study contributes theoretically to behavioral finance literature and provides practical insights for improving financial literacy programs, enhancing investor education, and designing fintech features that foster trust. The findings can also inform policymakers in creating targeted initiatives to encourage responsible investment behavior among younger generations in Indonesia.

The rapid growth of amateur football clubs in Surabaya presents great opportunities for talent development and social cohesion, but it also comes with managerial challenges such as unclear organizational structure, lack of financial transparency, limited promotion, and the absence of operational standards for matches. This article presents the results of a community service program based on capacity building, designed to strengthen the managerial capacity of amateur football club managers in Surabaya. The activities focused on a one-day face-to-face workshop for representatives from 30 clubs, utilizing interactive lectures, local case studies, targeted discussions, and the distribution of practical handouts including organizational structure templates, code of conduct, one-page financial reports, content calendars, and matchday checklists. The core materials covered five areas: governance & legal, planning & OKR, finance & accountability, marketing & sponsorship, and operations & safeguarding. The program concludes that a brief, capacity-building workshop can trigger the initial professionalization of amateur football clubs through measurable, easy-to-adopt, and replicable minimum viable governance practices. These findings are relevant as a model for strengthening governance and management of amateur clubs in Indonesia, while also supporting a more professional, accountable, and sustainable community sports ecosystem.

The construction industry faces major challenges in managing material inventory, particularly among start-up companies that still rely on paper-based manual records. Such practices often lead to data inconsistencies, delays in decision-making, and project inefficiencies. This study aims to analyze the implementation of a cloud-based and real-time inventory management system utilizing spreadsheets at PT X, a start-up contractor located in Karanganyar, Central Java. The research employs a qualitative case study approach, with data collected through direct observation, semi-structured interviews with finance staff, logistics administration staff, and the project manager, as well as documentation of material inflows and outflows. The findings reveal that the use of cloud-based spreadsheets enhances data transparency, facilitates real-time monitoring between field and office, and accelerates stock opname validation. The system also supports more responsive decision-making regarding material reordering and request postponements. Nevertheless, several obstacles remain, including limited digital literacy among staff, potential input errors, and reliance on internet connectivity. Theoretically, this research contributes to the literature on accounting information systems and inventory management in small-scale construction sectors. Practically, it demonstrates that low-cost cloud solutions can improve operational efficiency and serve as a foundation for developing more integrated systems in the future.

The development of financial technology (fintech) in the digital era has made it easier for young people, particularly students, to access investment services through applications such as Bibit, Ajaib, Pluang, and Bareksa. The increasing number of young investors has not been fully aligned with the quality of investment decision-making, which is still influenced by low financial literacy, social media promotion, and the availability of financial education features on digital platforms. This study aims to analyze the influence of financial education features and social media promotion on student investment behavior, with financial literacy as a moderating variable. The primary theory used is the Theory of Planned Behavior (Ajzen, 1991), supported by Financial Literacy Theory, Uses and Gratification Theory, and the Technology Acceptance Model. The research method uses a quantitative approach with a population of student users of the Bibit application in Bali. The independent variables in this study include financial education features and social media promotion, while the dependent variable is investment behavior, while financial literacy is positioned as a moderating variable. The results of this study are expected to provide theoretical contributions to the development of management studies, digital marketing, and behavioral finance, as well as practical benefits for investment application developers, educational institutions, and students in fostering rational, intelligent, and sustainable investment behavior in the digital era.

The blue economy is widely promoted as a pathway to sustainable development, yet women’s enterprises remain marginalized by structural barriers. This study investigates whether support systems directly influence the sustainability of coastal women’s businesses in Bulukumba South Sulawesi, Indonesia, while applying the Quintuple Bottom Line (QBL) and Theory of Change (Toc) frameworks. A quantitative design using survey data from women-led micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) was analyzed through structural equation modeling (SEM). The model assessed the reliability of constructs and tested the hypothesized effect of support systems including access to finance, social support, and public policy on sustainability outcomes. Findings reveal that although the measurement model demonstrated reliability and validity, support systems showed no significant direct effect on sustainability. This result contrasts with much of the existing literature but aligns with recent studies emphasizing mediation through financial literacy, managerial capacity, and institutional scaffolding. The study thus adds nuance by demonstrating that external interventions, in isolation, are insufficient for sustaining women’s enterprises in coastal contexts. The research contributes theoretically by extending QBL and Toc to gendered coastal entrepreneurship and practically by highlighting the need for integrated, gender-sensitive policies. Future research should examine mediating and moderating mechanisms that translate support into long term sustainability.

Research aims to explore the influence of robo-advisor usage, trust in artificial intelligence (AI), financial literacy, and risk tolerance on investment behavior and its impact on the portfolio performance of retail investors in Indonesia. This study applies a quantitative approach, collecting data from 100 respondents who use investment applications such as Bibit, Ajaib, and Bareksa through the distribution of structured questionnaires with a 5-point Likert scale. Data analysis was carried out using the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) technique. The results indicate that the four independent variables robo-advisor usage, trust in AI, financial literacy, and risk tolerance significantly affect investment behavior, which in turn has a positive effect on portfolio performance. High trust in AI combined with strong financial literacy fosters more disciplined and rational investment behavior. These findings highlight the importance of effective AI technology integration, improving financial literacy, and managing risk preferences to enhance investment decision-making quality and financial well-being. The study contributes to behavioral finance literature and offers practical implications for fintech developers and policymakers in emerging markets.

This study analyzes the mechanism of money creation in Islamic financial institutions by examining its relationship with prudential principles and financial intermediation. The research is motivated by the growth of Indonesia’s Islamic capital market, which reached a capitalization of IDR 5,060 trillion in 2025, yet conceptual challenges remain regarding money creation in line with maqashid al-shariah. The study employs a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) using the PRISMA framework, reviewing 38 relevant academic articles. Findings indicate that money creation in Islamic finance occurs only through real-asset-based activities, differing from the conventional system that relies on credit expansion and interest. Intermediation functions are carried out through partnerships emphasizing fair risk and profit sharing, while the prudential principle ensures controlled monetary expansion. The study concludes that the integration of moral and economic dimensions establishes a fair, stable, and sustainable Islamic monetary paradigm and contributes conceptually to strengthening Islamic financial policy in Indonesia.

The results of the activity showed significant changes, where partners were able to record transactions systematically, document transaction evidence, and separate personal and business finances. The implementation of this bookkeeping became the basis for business decision-making and opened up opportunities for access to capital. Thus, this program contributed to improving small business accountability and is expected to be replicated in other MSMEs.

This study analyzes the implementation of Income Tax Article 21 (PPh 21) before and after changes in the Average Effective Rate (TER) and Progressive Rate based on Government Regulation (PP) No. 58 of 2023 on permanent employees of PT Federal International Finance (FIFGROUP) Lampung Branch. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the conformity of the calculation and reporting of PPh 21 with the latest regulations and to identify the impact of changes in rates on employee tax obligations. The research method used a qualitative descriptive approach with primary data (interviews and observations) and secondary data (financial documents, tax regulations, and internal company reports). Comparative analysis reveals that the use of TER tends to result in higher monthly tax burdens compared to annual progressive calculations, especially in the Non-Taxable Income (PTKP) K/3 and TK/3 categories. This finding indicates the need for adjustments to the payroll system to minimize tax differences and improve the accuracy of deductions. Keywords: Article 21 Income Tax; Calculation of Article 21 Income Tax with TER and Progressive rates; PP No. 58 of 2023.
