Abstract

The prime goal of this research is to find out the determinants of mutual fund’s success in Pakistan. This study exploits the convenient sampling techniques and the data gathered from fund manager reports, annual reports, and from CDCPL. The sample size of this study relaxed to six Assets Management Companies (AMC)’s from 2013 to 2017. We applied a unit root test for finding the nature of data and check the variation of variable’s mutual performance by Hausman Technique. Moreover, we depicted the association between dependent and independent variables with the help of Constant Coefficient Model. It was concluded that risk-adjusted return, management structure, and expense ratio have a significant impact on the size of fund of selected AMC’S of Pakistan. However, the net asset value found to be negatively related with the size of the fund. This research will help investors, AMC’s and regulatory bodies to understand the dynamics of mutual funds in Pakistan.DOI: 10.15408/ess.v8i2.7431

Abstract

Village fund corruption remains a critical issue within Indonesia’s decentralized governance system. Although Law No. 6 of 2014 on Villages and Law No. 23 of 2014 on Regional Government establish frameworks for transparency and accountability, their implementation has not effectively curbed corrupt practices. This study analyzes the effectiveness of these regulations in preventing village fund corruption and proposes legal strategies to enhance oversight. Using a normative juridical approach supported by empirical data from Indonesia Corruption Watch (ICW), the research finds that weak vertical supervision by the Regional Inspectorate, limited community participation, and inadequate administrative capacity among village officials undermine regulatory effectiveness. To address these challenges, the study recommends strengthening participatory audits, adopting context-appropriate digital transparency tools, reforming the institutional role of the Village Consultative Body (BPD), and enforcing stricter legal sanctions. A comprehensive and participatory legal approach is essential to reduce corruption and promote sustainable rural governance.
