Abstract

Palm oil is a strategic commodity and a major non-oil and gas export contributor for Indonesia, which is the world's leading exporter. This study aims to analyze the influence of macroeconomic variables on Indonesia's palm oil export performance and assess its competitiveness in five key Asian and African markets: China, India, Egypt, Pakistan, and Singapore, over the period 2005–2024. A quantitative approach was employed, utilizing panel data regression (Fixed Effect Model) to test macroeconomic factors and the Revealed Comparative Advantage (RCA), Export Product Dynamics (EPD), and Trade Specialization Index (TSI) for competitiveness analysis. The results show that the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and Inflation in importing countries have a positive and significant effect on palm oil exports, consistent with increasing aggregate purchasing power and inelastic demand for this essential commodity. Conversely, the Real Exchange Rate (RER) was found to be statistically insignificant. Competitiveness analysis confirmed Indonesia's strong market position. The RCA index indicated a strong comparative advantage across all markets, with the product categorized as a 'Rising Star' via the EPD in China, India, Egypt, and Pakistan. The consistently high TSI values (0.98 to 1.00) further affirm Indonesia's strong and persistent role as a net exporter. These findings underscore the need for adaptive and sustainable export policies to maintain Indonesia’s competitive advantage in the volatile global trade landscape.

Abstract

The primary objective of this study is to examine the impact of women on boards of directors (WOB), boards of directors (BOD), boards of commissioners (BOC), and independent boards of commissioners (BOCI) on company performance. The company's performance encompasses financial performance, assessed by return on assets (ROA), and market performance, evaluated by Tobin's Q. The population in this study consists of companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange, with a sample of 20 companies selected using purposive sampling technique. The observation period is six years (2019-2024). Hypothesis testing with panel data regression. Following the execution of the Chow test, the Hausman test, and the LM test, the optimal model is identified as panel data regression using the Random Effect Model (Tobin's Q) and the Fixed Effect Model (ROA). The research findings indicate that Women on Board, the Board of Directors, the Board of Commissioners, and independent Commissioners do not affect company performance, whether measured by Tobin's Q or ROA. However, for Tobin's Q, the coefficient is negative, and for ROA, only the BOD and Boci have negative coefficients. The research contributes scientifically and can be utilized by subsequent researchers focusing on the issue of women on boards of directors and board of directors' structure.
