Usaha Mikro, Kecil, dan Menengah (UMKM) merupakan sektor penting dalam perekonomian Kabupaten Sidoarjo dengan jumlah mencapai 171.264 unit usaha pada tahun 2023. Sebagian besar pelaku UMKM masih menghadapi kendala berupa keterbatasan akses pembiayaan formal, rendahnya literasi keuangan, serta minimnya pendampingan usaha. Pemerintah Kabupaten Sidoarjo menginisiasi Program KURDA SAYANG melalui Peraturan Bupati Nomor 8 Tahun 2025 yang dilaksanakan bersama BPR Delta Artha. Penelitian ini bertujuan mendeskripsikan dan menganalisis implementasi Program KURDA SAYANG menggunakan teori implementasi kebijakan Charles O. Jones yang meliputi aspek organisasi, interpretasi, dan aplikasi. Metode kualitatif deskriptif digunakan dengan teknik pengumpulan data melalui wawancara, observasi, dan dokumentasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa aspek organisasi didukung struktur kelembagaan yang cukup jelas, meskipun koordinasi dan sinkronisasi data UMKM belum optimal. Dari aspek interpretasi, regulasi program berkembang dari Perbup No. 95/2020, No. 52/2023, hingga No. 8/2025, namun masih terdapat perbedaan pemahaman kriteria penerima dan sosialisasi yang belum merata. Pada aspek aplikasi, program memberikan dampak positif terhadap kapasitas usaha, perluasan pasar, dan pertumbuhan omzet UMKM, dengan kendala kredit macet, minimnya pendampingan pascapencairan, dan monitoring berbasis dampak yang belum optimal.

This study investigates the decoupling phenomenon between ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) sustainability reporting and communal Tri Hita Karana (THK) sustainability practices in a Rural Bank in Bali. Through Ethnographic Content Analysis (ECA) of official documents from BPR Luhur Damai covering 2023–2025, this study identifies that the Sustainability Report (SR), prepared strictly according to Financial Services Authority Regulation (POJK) 51/2017, does not incorporate substantial THK practices, namely banten (ceremonial offerings) Rp131.6 million, dana punia (religious donations) Rp8.5 million, and monthly banjar (communal community unit) contributions, producing a Hindu religious expenditure to formal Social and Environmental Responsibility (SER) ratio of 10:1. Drawing on the Institutional Logics perspective, this study identifies four decoupling mechanisms: (1) cognitive, namely THK as taken-for-granted, not perceived as “sustainability”; (2) administrative, namely departmental silos between Compliance and General Affairs; (3) template, namely POJK 51/2017 provides no space for local wisdom; and (4) capacity, namely limited Human Resources (HR) and institutional capacity. These findings lead to the concept of “invisible sustainability,” that is, real sustainability contributions that are invisible to conventional reporting frameworks, and “cultural accounting gap,” that is, the absence of accounting categories for local cultural-religious contributions. The theoretical contribution is demonstrating that decoupling in Global South contexts is not merely symbolic compliance but results from structural misalignment between transnational and communal logics that renders local sustainability contributions institutionally invisible.

An abstranct is a brief summary of a research article, The development of Islamic banking in Indonesia has shown significant growth, particularly through the implementation of murabahah contracts in financing at Sharia Rural Banks (BPRS). Murabahah is one of the most widely used financing products due to its relatively simple mechanism and ease of understanding by the public. This study aims to analyze the implementation of murabahah contracts in financing at BPRS Alwadiah Tasikmalaya, including the stages of implementation, compliance with sharia principles, and the challenges encountered. The research method used is a qualitative approach with a descriptive method. Data collection techniques include observation, interviews, and documentation involving relevant parties at BPRS Alwadiah Tasikmalaya. The results indicate that the implementation of murabahah financing has been carried out systematically, starting from the financing application process, feasibility analysis, purchase of goods by the bank, execution of the contract, and installment payments. In general, the implementation is in accordance with sharia principles, such as price transparency and the absence of riba elements. However, several challenges remain, including the limited understanding of customers, the risk of delayed payments, and the use of wakalah contracts which require proper supervision to ensure compliance with sharia regulations. Overall, the implementation of murabahah financing at BPRS Alwadiah Tasikmalaya has been effectively carried out and is in accordance with sharia principles, although improvements are still needed in customer education and contract supervision.

Corruption cases in Indonesia often involve the recovery of state assets, including properties encumbered by mortgages (hak tanggungan). This research conducts a normative legal analysis on how current law treats such pledged assets when they become objects of state confiscation in corruption crimes. We examine Indonesian legislation (especially the Tipikor Act, TPPU Act, and Mortgage Act), judicial practice, and principles of justice and legal certainty. The Bank Perumda BPR Purworejo case is used as an illustrative case study: here fictitious loans and misused collateral led to state losses of hundreds of millions of rupiah, and investigators seized assets (including four mortgaged properties) as evidence. The analysis finds that existing rules inadequately protect good-faith creditors: courts have noted that a corruption verdict does not automatically erase a prior mortgage lien, and that a certified mortgage confers a preferential right equal to a judgment. In practice, however, law enforcement often seizes all assets of the convict without first verifying third-party rights, creating legal uncertainty and perceived injustice. We argue that fair outcomes require stricter safeguards for creditors (e.g. mandatory review of collateral status before seizure) and consideration of equitable principles. In conclusion, we recommend legal reforms or guidelines to balance the state’s recovery goals with protection of bona fide mortgagees, so as to uphold substantive justice while maintaining legal certainty.

Bank Perekonomian Rakyat Syariah (BPRS) is a financial institution that operates according to sharia principles, focusing on providing financial services to the community, especially micro and medium-sized businesses. The main problem in this thesis is that out of  a total of 1.200 mcro-enterprneurs, only 485 have received financing from BPRS Taeh Baruah. This is because they do not yet have a business licence, so mcro-enterpreneurs prefer to borrow from non-formal financing institutions such as the PNM Mekaar program or farmer groups. This study aims to analyze the role of Bank Perekonomian Rakyat Syariah (BPRS) Taeh Baruah in micro-enterprise development. The research method used is a qualitative method with a descriptive approach. Data collection techniques used are through interviews and literature studies. Informants in this study consisted of 11 BPRS financing staff and 49 micro-enterprise customers at BPRS Taeh Baruah. The research results show that BPRS Taeh Baruah plays a significant role in supporting the development of micro-enterprises through sharia-based financing, particularly by using the murabahah contract, which is the most widely used by customers. Furthermore, BPRS Taeh Baruah also plays a role in increasing sharia financial inclusion by providing savings and financing services, conducting regular literacy and education related to sharia finance, and implementing flexible service strategies such as savings and financing pickup services, the use of mobile banking service. The Taeh Baruah BPRS also play a role in improving community welfare through financing programs provided to micro-enterpreneurs for working capital, enabling their business to grow. The additional capital provided by the BPRS ensures the availability of materials and eqipment for their businesses, thus contibuting to economic stability.

In the era of globalization and digital transformation, organizations strive to maintain competitiveness through optimizing internal factors such as work culture, business process engineering (BPR), and decision support systems (DSS). This qualitative research based on a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) analyzes the relationship between these three using the Denison Organizational Culture Model, Hammer & Champy BPR, and the Resource-Based View (RBV). It finds that work culture mediates the implementation of BPR and DSS to increase efficiency by 30-50%, employee productivity, and sustainable competitive advantage. Case studies such as the Toyota Production System (TPS) confirm this synergy, resulting in reduced costs, cycle times, and improved service quality. This research also emphasizes the importance of a strong work culture in supporting the implementation of new technologies and methodologies, which in turn strengthens the company's market position. Thus, organizations that are able to integrate these three elements will be better prepared to face the challenges of globalization and dynamic changes in their industry, creating a sustainable advantage and being able to survive in a highly competitive market.

Penelitian ini dilatarbelakangi oleh munculnya persoalan yuridis dalam pelaksanaan mekanisme Agunan yang Diambil Alih (AYDA) oleh perbankan, terutama terkait validasi Pajak Penghasilan atas Pengalihan Hak atas Tanah dan/atau Bangunan (PPh TB). Kasus BPR RAY memperlihatkan kebuntuan administratif akibat penolakan validasi pajak oleh DJP, yang menimbulkan ketidakpastian hukum dalam penyelamatan kredit bermasalah. Rumusan masalah mencakup: (1) bentuk pertentangan norma antara POJK 33/2018 dan PMK 261/2016; (2) penyebab disharmonisasi norma; dan (3) akibat hukumnya terhadap pelaksanaan AYDA. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengidentifikasi bentuk, penyebab, dan akibat hukum dari disharmonisasi tersebut. Metode yang digunakan ialah yuridis normatif dengan spesifikasi deskriptif-analitis melalui studi pustaka dan wawancara. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bentuk pertentangan antara PMK 261/2016 yang mengedepankan pendekatan formal kepemilikan dan POJK 33/2018 yang menekankan substansi penguasaan aset. Disharmonisasi ini disebabkan oleh pengambilalihan AYDA secara sukarela, penafsiran subjek pajak penghasilan, serta ketiadaan regulasi penghubung antarregulator. Akibat hukum disharmonisasi ini terjadi di sektor perbankan, perpajakan dan pertanahan. Hasil penelitian kemudian dianalisis menggunakan teori sistem hukum, teori hukum responsif dan teori keadilan distributif. Dari hasil penelitian ini dapat disimpulkan disharmonisasi norma menimbulkan hambatan dalam praktik AYDA dan menimbulkan akibat hukum di berbagai sektor. Di akhir, peneliti memberikan saran akademik mendorong penelitian AYDA yang multi kasus dengan teori hukum yang lebih variative. Untuk saran praktis penelitian ini menegaskan pentingnya harmonisasi antar regulator sehingga pengaturan AYDA tidak saling bertentangan. Beban pajak sebaiknya disesuaikan dengan prinsip keadilan dan kemampuan membayar. BPR maupun masyarakat dapat menempuh judicial review ke Mahkamah Agung untuk menjamin kepastian hukum dan keseragaman tafsir regulasi

It is hoped that these research findings will help BPR Agung Sejahtera's management better manage its human resources to achieve the company's goals.

Optimizing human resource (HR) performance through a business process reengineering (BPR) approach is a crucial strategy in a competitive and dynamic industrial environment. This study qualitatively examines through a literature review how BPRs radically redesign business processes to improve productivity, quality, time efficiency, and reduce operational costs, with a focus on HR aspects such as recruitment, training, performance appraisal, and career development. The BPR theory by Michael Hammer and James Champy emphasizes the principles of results-based workflow reorganization, the integration of information technology such as ERP and AI, and the empowerment of HR to eliminate task redundancy. In the Indonesian industrial context, the integration of BPR with digital transformation supports Industry 4.0, where HR acts as a catalyst for innovation through adaptive skills and cross-functional collaboration. The study results show that BPR implementation strategies including as-is process analysis, to-be design, change management, and continuous evaluation increase employee motivation, retention, and sustainable competitive advantage. Case studies such as PT Telkom Indonesia and PT Cahaya Mega Group demonstrate efficiency increases of up to 100%. This approach not only streamlines operations but also builds an organization resilient to market and technological disruption.

The high level of Turnover Intention in regional banking industries indicates the importance of supervisor support in retaining employees. This study aims to analyze the effect of Perceived Supervisor Support on Turnover Intention with Work Engagement as a mediating variable. The research was conducted at PT BPR Bali Dananiaga involving 54 respondents selected using the purposive sampling method. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using Path Analysis, Classical Assumption Tests, and the Sobel Test. The results show that Perceived Supervisor Support has a significant negative effect on Turnover Intention, Perceived Supervisor Support has a significant positive effect on Work Engagement, Work Engagement has a significant negative effect on Turnover Intention, and Work Engagement significantly mediates the effect of Perceived Supervisor Support on Turnover Intention. These findings strengthen Social Exchange Theory, stating that reciprocal relationships between supervisors and employees increase work engagement and reduce the intention to leave the organization.

This study aims to analyze the influence of work motivation on the performance of employees at PT BPR Sentral Arta Asia (SAA) in Lumajang City, East Java. In the context of an increasingly competitive banking industry, companies require human resources who are not only competent but also possess strong internal and external drive to achieve organizational goals. This research employed a quantitative approach with a sample of 45 employees selected randomly. Data were collected through observation and questionnaires, then analyzed using validity tests, reliability tests, and simple linear regression. The findings reveal that work motivation has a significant positive effect on employee performance. This demonstrates that enhancing both intrinsic and extrinsic motivation can improve productivity and service quality, thereby supporting the company's long-term objectives. The determination coefficient (R²) of 45.2% indicates that motivation contributes significantly to performance, while the remaining 54.8% is influenced by other factors not examined in this study.

The purpose of this study is to examine and explain the influence of workload on job satisfaction with job stress as a mediating variable at PT. BPR Karya Artha Sejahtera Indonesia. This research employs a quantitative causality approach with a sample of 86 respondents selected using a saturated sampling technique. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using inferential analysis with the SEM-PLS (Structural Equation Modeling – Partial Least Squares) method through the SmartPLS version 4.0 software. The results indicate that workload has a positive effect on job stress and a negative effect on job satisfaction. Job stress has a negative effect on job satisfaction and is proven to mediate the relationship between workload and job satisfaction. These findings support the two-factor theory and emphasize that poorly distributed workload can cause employees to experience stress at work. Job stress can reduce employees’ satisfaction with their jobs. This study is expected to provide practical contributions to the research site in improving job satisfaction by considering workload and job stress.

Murabaha financing is one of the leading products at PT. BPRS Mitra Mentari Sejahtera Ponorogo, especially for consumptive and productive financing.

The results of this study indicate that risk management has been implemented at PT. BPRS Mitra Mentari Sejahtera Ponorogo, emphasizing the stages of identifying and measuring risk through 5C+1S analysis (character, capacity, capital, condition of economy, collateral, and sharia), although it only focuses on the aspects of capacity and collateral as well as BI checking. The risk mitigation process is also carried out through insurance and the use of collateral, especially gold pawn. Although it has a positive impact, its implementation is not yet optimal, as indicated by the high level of problematic financing and an increase in NPF.

The reliability of financial reporting information is an important aspect in maintaining the credibility of financial institutions, especially Rural Banks (BPR) that operate based on public trust. This study aims to analyze the influence of organizational commitment, individual integrity, ethical orientation, and external pressure on the reliability of financial reporting information at BPRs in Bali Province. This study used a quantitative approach with a purposive sampling technique, involving 75 respondents from 10 BPRs who met the criteria of length of service and involvement in the financial reporting process. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using multiple linear regression analysis with the help of SPSS. The results showed that organizational commitment, individual integrity, and ethical orientation had a significant positive effect, while external pressure had a negative but insignificant effect on the reliability of financial reporting information. These findings emphasize the importance of strengthening ethical values ​​and employee integrity in strengthening the reliability of financial reporting, while also supporting the application of Agency Theory which emphasizes the importance of controlling agent behavior to align with the interests of the principal. This study provides practical implications for BPR management to strengthen organizational culture and ethical oversight as part of the internal control system.
