Abstract

Fraud poses a pervasive and significant threat to organizations globally, with catastrophic consequences ranging from financial losses to reputational damage. This study investigates the roles of auditor professional skepticism and the whistleblowing system in combatting fraud and enhancing detection in investigative audits. Drawing from a comprehensive examination of 56 respondents in the Indonesian Supreme Audit Board, the study evaluates the validity and reliability of key research variables and tests three hypotheses. The findings indicate that, when analyzed individually, auditor professional skepticism does not significantly influence fraud detection. This aligns with prior research, emphasizing potential hindrances such as tight audit schedules and limited understanding of fraud perpetrators’ motives. Conversely, the whistleblowing system is found to have a significant and positive impact on fraud detection, with reliable information sourced from insiders aiding in early fraud identification. Moreover, when auditor professional skepticism and the whistleblowing system are combined, they synergistically enhance fraud detection significantly. These insights provide valuable guidance for organizations seeking to bolster their anti-fraud measures, underlining the importance of both elements in effective fraud prevention and detection efforts.

Abstract

This research examines the use of the Integrated Audit Approach in auditing National Program 6, Sustainable Energy Development, on State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs) by AKN VII of the Audit Board of the Republic of Indonesia. Sustainable energy development, focused on renewable energy and energy efficiency, is a key priority in the 2020–2024 Medium-Term National Development Plan. Given SOEs' significant role in implementing this program, auditing their performance and governance is essential to achieving national strategic goals. The Integrated Audit Approach addresses limitations of traditional audits, such as restricted coverage and less strategic recommendations, by combining financial, compliance, and performance audits. This comprehensive method yields more in-depth and sustainable recommendations. The research uses a qualitative, descriptive-exploratory approach, gathering data through interviews with Audit Board auditors and reviews of internal reports and documents. Findings indicate that the integrated audit approach enhances SOEs' audit quality by delivering more strategic and relevant recommendations, particularly in sustainable energy governance. This study aims to advance audit theory and practice within the Audit Board, contributing to improved governance and performance of SOEs.

Abstract

The prevalence of corruption in Indonesia is increasing every year. This fact has further undermined public confidence to strengthen governance and is a critical barrier to national development. This study aims to empirically examine the individual and combined impact of audit opinions, the implementation of audit recommendations, and findings of state losses by the Indonesian Supreme Audit Board (BPK) on the prevalence of corruption in ministries and institutions in the Republic of Indonesia. Using multiple linear regression analysis, this study used a purposive sampling method and investigated 72 ministries using secondary data from 2014 to 2017 obtained from BPK and the Corruption Eradication Commission of the Republic of Indonesia (KPK). This study indicates that audit opinions and the implementation of audit recommendations do not affect corruption in Indonesian ministries and institutions. In contrast, findings of state losses do have an influence. The combination of audit opinions, implementation of audit recommendations, and findings of simultaneous state losses do not affect corruption cases in Indonesian ministries and institutions. BPK can use the results of this study to formulate approaches and recommendations for auditing government financial reports that have a strong correlation with corruption eradication. Moreover, KPK needs to be more vigorous in its efforts to eradicate corruption, including establishing closer cooperation with BPK because the results of this research show that findings of state losses by BPK are closely related to corruption cases.
