Abstract

This study examines the moderating effect of sustainable competitive advantage on the relationship between sustainable finance and bank profitability of Indonesian conventional commercial banks from 2019 to 2022. The study has found that sustainable finance has a positive impact on bank profitability (ROA and ROE). However, the impact of sustainable competitive advantage on bank profitability was only positive with ROA, suggesting that ROA is a more effective indicator of bank profitability for this study. Furthermore, the study indicates that the impact of sustainable finance on bank profitability (both ROA and ROE) is diminished by the delay in the implementation of sustainability reporting during the COVID-19 reporting period. The results of this study are likely to encourage banks to increase their sustainable finance and focus on improving the quality of sustainability reporting in order to gain a competitive advantage in the current banking industry landscape in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study uses profitability (ROA) as a moderating variable to examine how Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) affects the firm value of Indonesian banking firms. Secondary data were obtained from 121 observations of banks listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during 2018–2023, covering the pre, during, and post COVID-19 periods. ESG performance was measured using the Bumi Global Karbon (BGK) Foundation score, while Tobin's Q ratio was used to calculate firm value. Panel data regression with a Fixed Effect Model under the Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA) approach was employed. The results show that ESG has a negative effect on firm value, while the ESG ROA interaction has a significantly positive effect, indicating that profitability strengthens ESG’s contribution to firm value. Control variables, leverage, and firm size were found insignificant. The findings highlight the need for financial readiness before intensive ESG adoption and the importance of regulatory incentives to promote ESG implementation without reducing profitability.
