Financial distress has become a critical issue for companies operating in highly competitive and capital-intensive industries, making effective corporate governance and the efficient utilization of intangible resources increasingly important for ensuring long-term financial sustainability. This study aims to examine the effect of Good Corporate Governance on Financial Distress and to investigate the mediating role of Intellectual Capital in this relationship. The research employs a quantitative explanatory approach using panel data from 23 energy and mining companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the 2021–2024 period, resulting in 92 firm-year observations. Secondary data obtained from annual reports and financial statements were analyzed using descriptive statistics, classical assumption tests, panel regression analysis, and mediation analysis. The findings indicate that Good Corporate Governance has a significant negative effect on Financial Distress, suggesting that stronger governance practices improve financial stability and reduce the likelihood of financial difficulties. Intellectual Capital also demonstrates a significant negative effect on Financial Distress and partially mediates the relationship between Good Corporate Governance and Financial Distress. These findings imply that effective governance combined with the strategic management of intellectual resources enhances organizational resilience and supports sustainable corporate performance. The study contributes to the literature by integrating governance quality and intellectual capital into a single framework for explaining financial distress and provides practical insights for managers, investors, and policymakers in strengthening corporate sustainability.

The development of the digital economy has led to increasing complexity in tax management for technology-based companies. Various digital business activities, such as cross-border transactions, the utilization of intangible assets, and evolving tax regulations, require companies to adopt appropriate tax strategies. This study aims to analyze the strategic role of tax consultants in supporting business decision-making within technology-based firms. The research employs a qualitative approach using a literature review method, examining various scientific journals, books, tax regulations, and relevant professional publications. The findings indicate that tax consultants no longer function solely as compliance supporters but have evolved into strategic partners for companies in tax planning, the utilization of fiscal incentives, tax risk mitigation, digital transaction management, and investment and business expansion decision-making. This role contributes to improved financial efficiency and reduced tax-related legal risks. This study emphasizes that the involvement of tax consultants from the business planning stage can enhance the quality of managerial decision-making in technology-based companies.

This study investigates the relationship between green practices and corporate tax avoidance, focusing on green accounting, environmental performance, and corporate social responsibility (CSR) among 19 Indonesian publicly listed companies from 2021 to 2024. The research aims to examine whether environmentally responsible strategies influence firms’ tax behavior and how sustainability practices mediate this relationship. A quantitative approach was employed, collecting data from corporate financial statements, ESG reports, and sustainability disclosures. The analysis included descriptive statistics, correlation tests, and pooled ordinary least squares regression to explore the effects of green accounting, environmental performance, and CSR on the effective tax rate (ETR) as a proxy for tax avoidance. Results indicate that green accounting is positively associated with higher ETR, suggesting reduced tax avoidance, while CSR negatively impacts ETR, implying that sustainability initiatives can be strategically used to mask aggressive tax planning. Environmental performance alone does not significantly affect tax behavior. These findings highlight the importance of transparency through green accounting to promote ethical tax practices, while cautioning that CSR may serve as a reputational tool rather than a mechanism for reducing tax avoidance. The study contributes to theoretical understanding in sustainability and corporate governance and offers practical insights for policymakers and corporate managers to align environmental and fiscal responsibilities.

The increasing emphasis on sustainable business practices has encouraged companies to integrate environmental and social responsibilities into their strategic and financial decision-making processes. This study investigates the influence of Green Accounting on Firm Value and examines the moderating role of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) within the Triple Bottom Line framework. A quantitative research design was employed using panel data from 23 energy, mining, and infrastructure companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the 2022–2024 period, resulting in 69 firm-year observations. Secondary data were collected from annual reports and sustainability reports and analyzed using descriptive statistics, classical assumption tests, and Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA). The findings indicate that Green Accounting does not have a significant direct effect on Firm Value, while CSR also shows no significant direct influence. Furthermore, CSR is unable to significantly moderate the relationship between Green Accounting and Firm Value. These results suggest that sustainability initiatives implemented by Indonesian companies have not yet generated measurable short-term financial benefits, although they may contribute to long-term corporate legitimacy, stakeholder trust, and sustainable competitiveness. The study provides practical implications for corporate managers, investors, and policymakers by emphasizing the importance of strengthening sustainability reporting quality and integrating environmental and social strategies into long-term corporate value creation.

Earnings management remains a major concern in the banking industry because it may reduce the credibility and reliability of financial reporting. At the same time, Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) has increasingly been recognized as an important governance mechanism that enhances corporate transparency, accountability, and stakeholder trust. However, previous studies have reported inconsistent findings regarding the role of firm size in the relationship between CSR and earnings management. Therefore, this study aims to examine the effect of CSR on earnings management and investigate whether firm size acts as a mediating variable in Indonesian banking companies. This research employed a quantitative explanatory approach using panel data from 22 banking companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the 2022–2024 period, resulting in 66 observations. Data were analyzed using panel data regression with the Fixed Effect Model and mediation analysis through the Sobel test using EViews 12. The findings indicate that CSR has a significant negative effect on earnings management and a significant positive effect on firm size. Furthermore, firm size partially mediates the relationship between CSR and earnings management, indicating that CSR reduces earnings management both directly and indirectly through organizational scale. These findings provide theoretical support for stakeholder and legitimacy theories and offer practical insights for managers and regulators in strengthening CSR implementation to improve financial reporting quality and corporate transparency.

This study aims to examine the implementation of Interpretation of Financial Accounting Standards (ISAK) 335 in the financial management of non-profit foundations in Tanah Datar Regency, particularly in Rambatan and Sungai Tarab Districts. The study employed a qualitative case study approach using semi-structured interviews with financial managers from four foundations: Yayasan SLB Az-Zahra, Yayasan Darul Ulum/Darul Hafazah, Yayasan Daarut Tahfidz Al-Sulaiman, and Yayasan Jabal Rahmah. Data were analyzed using thematic analysis to identify the level of ISAK 335 implementation and the factors affecting its adoption. The findings reveal that none of the foundations have implemented ISAK 335 in preparing their financial statements. The main obstacles include the limited availability of personnel with accounting expertise, simple bookkeeping practices focused only on cash inflows and outflows, inadequate understanding of accounting standards for non-profit entities, and dependence on a single source of operational funding. Consequently, the financial statements do not comply with applicable accounting standards, resulting in low levels of transparency, accountability, and financial information quality. This study recommends enhancing the capacity of financial managers through training, gradually adopting ISAK 335, utilizing digital bookkeeping systems, and diversifying funding sources to strengthen accountable financial governance and ensure organizational sustainability.

This study investigates the role of Baitul Maal wa Tamwil (BMT) in empowering Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) through the integration of Maqashid Sharia principles and financial inclusion strategies. Despite the strategic importance of MSMEs in economic growth and poverty reduction, many face challenges in accessing formal financial services. BMT, with its dual function of social (maal) and commercial (tamwil) activities, offers a unique platform to bridge this gap. Using a qualitative systematic literature review guided by PRISMA, this study analyzes 30 relevant articles to examine BMT operational models, implementation of Maqashid Sharia objectives, financial inclusion practices, and their impact on MSME performance. Findings indicate that BMT effectively supports MSMEs in capital access, income generation, and business resilience, but inconsistencies in balancing social and commercial objectives limit. holistic empowerment. Integrating Maqashid Sharia principles enhances ethical and sustainable outcomes, while financial inclusion expands outreach to underserved entrepreneurs. Optimization strategies, including strengthening institutional capacity, combining financial and non-financial support, and context-specific interventions, are essential for maximizing BMT effectiveness. This study contributes a comprehensive framework linking ethical, financial, and empowerment dimensions, offering practical guidance for policymakers and BMT managers in promoting inclusive and sustainable MSME development.

This study examines human resource competence in improving financial management at the Public Service Agency of Gorontalo State University, a public higher education institution that operates under a flexible financial management model while remaining accountable for public funds. The main problem addressed is how financial management personnel translate regulatory knowledge, technical skills, and professional attitudes into efficient, effective, and accountable financial governance. This study aims to analyze the competence of financial management personnel and explain its contribution to strengthening institutional financial management. A qualitative descriptive approach was employed through interviews, observation, and document analysis involving bureau leaders, financial work team officials, treasurers, and financial managers across relevant work units. The findings show that knowledge competence is reflected in personnel understanding of regulations, policies, financial systems, budgeting procedures, reporting requirements, and the linkage between budget and institutional performance. Skills competence is demonstrated through financial administration, transaction recording, document verification, use of financial information systems, reconciliation, reporting, and preparation of accountability documents. Attitudinal competence appears in professionalism, compliance, integrity, prudence, responsibility, and openness to evaluation and audit. Financial management has been directed toward performance-based planning, expenditure control, budget realization monitoring, reporting, supervision, and audit follow-up. However, challenges remain in regulatory adaptation, system integration, data quality, document timeliness, account-code accuracy, inter-unit coordination, and consistency of audit follow-up. The study concludes that strengthening human resource competence is essential for improving financial management that is efficient, effective, accountable, and performance-oriented in public university financial governance.

Student cooperatives in Islamic boarding schools are no longer merely understood as business units providing daily necessities, but have developed into socio-economic spaces that shape independence, trust, and Islamic entrepreneurship education among students. This study is motivated by the limited number of studies examining pesantren cooperatives as socio-religious processes that cultivate values of trustworthiness, responsibility, transparency, and cooperation in students’ daily lives. The study aims to explain the empirical practices of student involvement in cooperative management, the social relations formed through economic activities in pesantren, and their implications for Islamic entrepreneurship education and the strengthening of pesantren economic independence. This research employed a qualitative approach with a field study method conducted at Pondok Pesantren Modern Elfira 2 Purwokerto. Data were collected through observation, interviews with cooperative administrators and student managers, and documentation of financial reports and cooperative operational activities. The findings reveal that students are directly involved in managing goods inventory, customer service, digital financial recording, and the distribution of daily necessities within the pesantren environment. These practices foster values of trustworthiness, transparency, responsibility, and cooperation through supervision systems, work shift arrangements, and daily evaluations. In addition to strengthening the pesantren’s economy, the cooperative also functions as a medium for experiential Islamic entrepreneurship learning. This article contributes to the sociology of Islamic education by demonstrating that student cooperatives function as socio-economic laboratories that shape students’ independence, social trust, and Islamic entrepreneurial ethics within the everyday life of pesantren communities.

This study conducts a systematic review of literature concerning the role of Management Information Systems (MIS) in managing Umrah pilgrim data across Indonesia. Employing a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) guided by the PRISMA protocol, the study examined and synthesized 24 peer-reviewed articles published between 2019 and 2026, drawn from Google Scholar, SINTA, and nationally accredited journal portals. Findings indicate that MIS adoption has yielded notable improvements in operational efficiency, data reliability, service transparency, and the overall quality of managerial decision-making within Umrah travel organizations. Web-based MIS remains the predominant technological approach, offering integrated modules for pilgrim registration, document handling, financial tracking, and departure scheduling. At the national level, government-initiated platforms such as SISKOHAT and SISKOPATUH have demonstrated tangible contributions to the administration of Hajj and Umrah services. Nevertheless, persistent obstacles continue to hinder full-scale adoption, including inadequate digital infrastructure in certain regions, inconsistent internet connectivity, and gaps in human resource competencies for operating digital systems. The study argues that embracing MIS is no longer optional for Umrah travel operators; rather, it constitutes a strategic necessity. Future research is encouraged to investigate long-term implementation outcomes, cross-system comparisons, and data security considerations within the broader digital landscape of pilgrimage service management.

This study aims to examine the effect of working capital efficiency and leverage on profitability and its implications for firm value in manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2020–2025 period. The post-COVID-19 pandemic condition has increased operational risks for manufacturing companies due to fluctuations in interest rates, exchange rates, cash management, inventories, and receivables. Therefore, companies are required to implement more effective financial strategies to maintain competitiveness. Profitability is positioned as an intervening variable because previous studies showed inconsistent results regarding the relationship between working capital efficiency, leverage, profitability, and firm value. This research uses a quantitative approach with path analysis to examine direct and indirect relationships among variables. The population consists of all manufacturing companies listed on the IDX, while the sample includes 45 companies selected from 270 firms using purposive sampling based on specific criteria, such as consistent listing and financial performance. The results indicate that working capital efficiency has a significant positive effect on profitability, leverage has a significant negative effect on profitability, profitability significantly increases firm value, and profitability fully mediates the effect of working capital efficiency and leverage on firm value. These findings provide theoretical and practical implications for managers and investors in financial decision-making.

Financial information systems in higher education institutions manage highly sensitive assets, including tuition payments, scholarships, payroll, vendor transactions, budgeting, and institutional financial reporting. Although ISO/IEC 27001:2022 provides a risk-based foundation for establishing an Information Security Management System, its implementation in universities is frequently constrained by fragmented governance, limited resources, complex asset environments, inconsistent managerial commitment, cultural resistance, and limited real-time monitoring capability. This study aims to develop an integrated security evaluation model for campus financial information systems by combining ISO/IEC 27001:2022, Zero Trust Architecture, AI-driven threat detection, security maturity assessment, and human-factor analysis. The study adopts a mixed-method sequential explanatory design integrated with Design Science Research. Quantitative stages include asset identification, risk scoring, ISO 27001 control gap analysis, maturity assessment, Zero Trust readiness assessment, and AI-driven detection readiness assessment. Qualitative stages include document analysis, semi-structured interviews, observation, expert judgment, and thematic analysis to examine organizational, cultural, and behavioral factors influencing security control effectiveness. The proposed outcome is the HEFIS-ISMS Model, an integrated framework consisting of seven layers: ISO 27001 control compliance, risk-based asset protection, security maturity, human and organizational factors, Zero Trust readiness, AI-driven detection readiness, and improvement roadmap. The model is expected to address the static and compliance-oriented limitations of conventional ISO 27001 assessments by introducing adaptive access control, continuous monitoring, anomaly detection readiness, and phased implementation guidance. The study contributes theoretically to cybersecurity governance in higher education and practically to risk-prioritized security improvement for resource-constrained universities.

The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of Good Corporate Governance (GCG), financial performance, and Earning Per Share (EPS) on firm value. The object of this research consists of state-owned enterprises (SOEs) listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the period of 2021–2024. This study employs a quantitative approach using secondary data in the form of annual financial statements as the primary source. The sample was selected using purposive sampling based on predetermined criteria, ensuring that only companies with complete data and consistent reporting were included in the analysis. The independent variables analyzed include the audit committee, independent commissioners, institutional ownership, Return on Assets (ROA), and Earning Per Share (EPS). Multiple linear regression analysis was used to process the data in this study, allowing the researchers to examine the simultaneous and partial effects of the variables on firm value. The findings indicate that firm value is significantly influenced by financial performance, particularly ROA, highlighting the importance of operational efficiency and profitability in enhancing shareholder wealth. While certain GCG variables such as institutional ownership showed positive influence, other elements like audit committees and independent commissioners produced mixed results, suggesting that governance mechanisms may have varying effects depending on organizational context. Meanwhile, EPS demonstrated inconsistent results in relation to firm value, implying that market perceptions of earnings may not fully capture the impact on overall firm valuation. This study provides insights for policymakers, investors, and corporate managers on the relative importance of governance and financial indicators in value creation for state-owned enterprises.

Corporate Income Tax payable is an important component of state revenue which is influenced by the company's financial performance and capital structure. The debt-equity ratio has direct implications for taxable profits through the recognition of interest expense as a fiscal deduction. An analysis of financial ratios that reflect the capital structure is necessary to assess its effect on the amount of tax payable. This study examines the Debt to Asset Ratio (DAR), Debt to Equity Ratio (DER), Long Term Debt to Asset Ratio (LDAR), and Long Term Debt to Equity Ratio (LDER) using secondary data from financial statements of consumer goods industry companies on the IDX for the 2020–2024 period. The quantitative approach was applied through multiple linear regression with the help of SPSS and purposive sampling techniques. The results of the partial test show that DAR and LDER have no effect on the Income Tax of the Payable Entity. On the other hand, DER and LDAR have been proven to have a significant effect on the Income Tax of the debtable Entity. Simultaneous testing showed that all variables together had a significant effect on taxes payable. These findings provide practical implications for management in optimizing capital structure policies to improve tax efficiency measurably. Theoretically, the results of this study strengthen the agency theory through the role of debt as a managerial discipline mechanism and support the signal theory that the capital structure is an indicator of information for external parties regarding the company's financial condition.

This study explores the relationship between service quality dimensions and customer loyalty in high-contact service industries, including healthcare, hospitality, and financial services, particularly in emerging markets. Using the SERVQUAL model, which identifies five key dimensions tangibles, reliability, responsiveness, assurance, and empathy the research examines how these dimensions influence customer loyalty. A quantitative research design is employed, with data collected through a cross-sectional survey of 400 respondents using a structured questionnaire. The study analyzes service quality, customer satisfaction, and loyalty using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM), regression analysis, and Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA). Findings reveal that reliability and empathy are the most influential factors in fostering loyalty, with customer satisfaction acting as a mediator. Additionally, the research highlights the role of perceived value and customer experience in moderating these effects, particularly in sectors like healthcare and hospitality. The study extends the SERVQUAL model by integrating new dimensions such as customer experience and perceived value, offering a more comprehensive framework for understanding service quality in high-contact industries. These insights provide actionable recommendations for service managers to enhance customer loyalty by addressing both functional and emotional aspects of service quality

This article discusses innovations in cash waqf management through the integration of digital technology with the SatuWakaf.id platform developed by the Indonesian Waqf Board (BWI). The urgency of this research is driven by the need for a transformation in waqf governance to optimize the potential of the Sharia economy in the era of disruption. This study employs a literature review method with a qualitative approach to examine the role of digitalization in enhancing efficiency, transparency, and public participation in waqf. The findings indicate that digital waqf provides ease of access, transaction flexibility, and transparency through a real-time reporting system that is accountably accessible to donors (wakif). Furthermore, the integration of technologies such as QRIS, e-wallets, and internet-based systems effectively addresses various constraints of conventional waqf management, including limited reach and complex administration. However, significant challenges remain, such as low public literacy, limited technological competence among waqf managers (nazir), and cyber security risks surrounding digital transactions. Consequently, the optimization of digital waqf requires strong synergy between human resource development, adaptive regulatory strengthening, and the development of inclusive technological infrastructure to ensure that national waqf potential is fully utilized for the welfare of the community.

The highly competitive healthcare industry in Cirebon poses a significant challenge for Klinik Utama X, especially as a non-BPJS facility. This condition requires a paradigm shift from a provider-centric marketing mix to a patient-centric approach to retain patient loyalty. This study aims to evaluate and formulate the marketing strategy of Klinik Utama X using a comparative 4P (Product, Price, Place, Promotion) and 4C (Customer Solution, Customer Cost, Convenience, Communication) approach based on SWOT analysis. This research used a qualitative descriptive design with purposive sampling, gathering primary and secondary data through in-depth interviews, observations, and document studies. The data were systematically evaluated using Internal Factor Evaluation (IFE) and External Factor Evaluation (EFE) matrices. The findings reveal that the clinic is strategically positioned in Quadrant I, with an IFAS score of 2.53 and an EFAS score of 2.60, indicating strong internal capabilities to seize external opportunities. The recommended aggressive growth strategy involves integrating psychiatric and aesthetic services, penetrating the Business-to-Business (B2B) market through corporate medical check-ups, accelerating digitalization via telemedicine and online queuing, and preparing for BPJS accreditation. The managerial implications suggest that the clinic must prioritize resolving internal human resources and strengthening financial record-keeping systems before investing heavily in medical assets, while actively expanding digital convenience and corporate partnerships to secure short-term financial stability.

Indonesia's increasing economic growth has intensified competition in the business world, particularly in the Indonesian banking sector, from conventional to sharia-compliant. Furthermore, the entry of foreign banks has made business activities in Indonesia increasingly complex. The stock market is a crucial source of funding for companies. Publicly listed companies can increase their funding sources by selling ownership in the capital market. Dividends are the distribution of company earnings to shareholders in the form of cash, assets, or other forms. Dividend policy is a policy for sharing company profits with shareholders, which is announced in the form of dividends and retained earnings for the benefit of company growth. The proportion of dividends distributed to shareholders depends on the company's profitability and dividend policy. The percentage of profits distributed to shareholders in the form of dividends is called the Dividend Payout Ratio.Differences in calculations in determining financial ratios in banking companies are an interesting focus in this study. The study results show quite significant results between financial ratios and managers' decisions in making dividend policy decisions. In the future, the results of this study are expected to be a consideration and reference for investors who want to enter the world of investment, especially in the banking sector.
