Abstract

This study investigates whether the effect of corruption, financial deepening, and inflation on economic growth exists employing panel regression of 10 provinces on the island of Sumatra over the period 2012-2020. Using the fixed effect model as the best model, the results confirm that between corruption, financial deepening, inflation and economic growth, a simultan relationship exists. Moreover, the FEM panel regression estimations indicate that corruption does not significantly affect economic growth, whereas financial deepening and inflation positively affect economic growth. The policy implication is that, for every province in Sumatra Island, boosting financial deepening and inflation can help promote economic growth. The policy effects are related to the prosperity of different regions.

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic triggered economic shocks that adversely affected the global economy. Economic growth contracted significantly. Restrictions on economic activity trigger people's shopping behavior to switch to non-cash and online systems. E-commerce, as one part of digital economic transformation, has experienced a significant increase which impacts the flow of dissemination of ideas, innovations, and information, thus encouraging economic growth. This study analyzes the Impact of e-commerce on economic growth in Indonesia during the COVID-19 pandemic using intermediation models and fixed effect analysis. The results show that e-commerce negatively and significantly impacts economic growth during 2019 and 2021. Because e-commerce stimulates economic growth in a country but needs to be supported by quality infrastructure, quality broadband internet, online security (cyber security), and digital payment systems (e-payment). The variables of online financing, efficiency of government spending, length of schooling, and number of tourists have a positive and significant effect. Meanwhile, the poverty rate and human development index have a negative and significant effect. In maximizing e-commerce activities in Indonesia, strong support and collaboration from the government, financial institutions, and the Ministry of Communication and information technology are needed.
