Abstract

Banking institutions primarily serve as intermediaries, collecting funds from the public through deposits (including savings, deposits, and current accounts) and redirecting these funds to the public in the form of credit. The execution of credit transactions necessitates a formal credit agreement to ensure legal certainty. These agreements typically follow a standardized pattern, with the bank drafting the terms and customers, often in a position of economic dependency, obliged to sign. Within the credit agreement, a crucial component is the banker clause, designed to mitigate credit risks. In the event of unforeseen circumstances, such as the customer's demise, this clause ensures that an insurance company settles the remaining debt. However, the effectiveness of this clause is contingent on the comprehensiveness of the insurance coverage. One noteworthy issue arises from the lack of transparency during the signing of credit agreements. Customers, represented solely by the bank during this process, may not be fully informed about the intricacies of the banker clause. Consequently, customers have found themselves in situations where they are obligated to fulfill outstanding credit obligations despite insurance claim rejections due to undisclosed specifics of certain diseases. To address this concern, it is imperative to establish explicit regulations governing disclosing information related to the banker clause during the signing of the credit agreement. This necessitates a collaborative effort involving the customer, bank, and insurance institution, ensuring that all relevant parties convene to discuss and clarify the terms of the credit agreement, particularly those related to the banker clause.

Abstract

Discretion is used by state administrators (executives) to resolve complex government situations while still paying attention to the public interest. The practice of discretion still causes problems and debates. This research seeks to examine issues in discretionary authority and its testing. This research is normative juridical research using primary and secondary legal materials. The research approach was carried out using a statutory and conceptual approach. An analysis of the regulations and practices of discretionary testing at SAC was also added to complete the arguments that will be compared between Indonesia and the Netherlands. The findings of this research show that regulations in Indonesia contain provisions governing the limits and scope of discretion as a reference for the government in issuing discretion, as well as instructions for testing discretion at the State Administrative Court. The authority to use discretion, which has encountered problems that have arisen, includes aspects of the meaning of discretion, which also include factual actions, aspects of the regulation of discretion which are carried out in detail in the law, procedural aspects in the use of discretion which require prior permission, and aspects of the possibility of rejection of discretion by superior officials. Regarding the comparison of discretionary tests in the SAC, in Indonesia, the discretionary test is not substantially regarding discretion but instead is on the abuse of authority in exercising discretion concerning the terms and objectives of the discretion and conformity with the AUPB. Meanwhile, the SAC carries out a 'reasonableness test'—limited to whether administrative powers have been exercised fairly. Therefore, the conditions for restricting the use of discretion must be carried out strictly and need to be based on the AUPB so that discretion is issued that is not arbitrary in the public interest because discretionary authority cannot be tested in the SAC.

Abstract

Article 74 of Law Number 40 of 2007 concerning Limited Liability Companies establishes social and environmental responsibilities for companies operating in or related to natural resources. Companies based on information and technology must also be accompanied by changes in legal norms, especially in the field of implementing environmental social responsibility. According to Law Number 40 of 2007 concerning Limited Liability Companies, only companies whose business activities are related to natural resources or businesses that impact the environment are subject to environmental social responsibility, while IT startups and digital businesses do not disturb natural resources and do not affect the environment. Changes in society are indeed followed by changes in legal norms. The older a law gets, the more weaknesses and shortcomings it will have. Changes in norms governing environmental social responsibility must be adjusted to the current business climate. Environmental Social Responsibility should also be mandated for companies operating in the digital business sector. To maximize environmental social responsibility for large companies operating in the digital business sector, it must be supported by adequate legal norms.

Abstract

The Principle of Recognizing Service Users (Prinsip Mengenali Pengguna Jasa, PMPJ), as outlined in Article 3 of Government Regulation No. 61 of 2021 concerning Amendments to Government Regulation No. 43 of 2015 on Whistleblowers in the Prevention and Eradication of Money Laundering Crimes, underscores the role of advocates as mandatory whistleblowers. This creates legal challenges regarding its implementation, resulting in a dialectical tension with the central argument that while PMPJ obligations are firmly grounded in normative legal frameworks, advocates—who are explicitly required to uphold these provisions—find no compelling legal basis for such duties in Law No. 18 of 2003 on Advocates (the Advocate Law). The principle of Lex Superior Derogat Legi Inferior further complicates this issue, as it suggests that the Advocate Law, being of a higher legal order, supersedes the obligations imposed by PMPJ. The primary objective of this study is to critically analyze the implementation of PMPJ, specifically focusing on the supporting and inhibiting factors in the context of preventing and combating money laundering crimes. The findings highlight that the failure to optimally implement PMPJ within the advocate profession is largely due to the unresolved legal dialectic surrounding the obligations of advocates. This issue has not been addressed in prior studies, representing a novel contribution of this research. Consequently, this study proposes the need for a reformulation of the Advocate Law, emphasizing the explicit inclusion of advocates' obligations regarding the implementation of PMPJ principles.

Abstract

The rapid growth of online lending platforms in Indonesia has introduced significant challenges, particularly regarding predatory lending practices, lack of consumer awareness, and insufficient regulatory oversight. These challenges have raised concerns about consumer protection, the exploitation of borrowers, and the need for stronger legal frameworks to ensure fair and transparent lending practices. This paper explores the key legal and regulatory actions necessary to address these pressing issues. It examines the role of Indonesia's Financial Services Authority (OJK) in regulating online lenders and proposes potential improvements in licensing, supervision, and enforcement. The paper also suggests the introduction of clearer lending standards, such as interest rate caps and transparent fee structures, alongside stronger consumer protection laws to prevent harassment and over-indebtedness. Data privacy and security concerns are addressed, with a call for more robust protections around borrower data. Additionally, the paper advocates for financial literacy programs to empower borrowers with the knowledge to make informed decisions. The research contributes to the existing body of knowledge by providing an in-depth analysis of the legal gaps within Indonesia’s online lending market, offering comparative insights from other countries like India and the Philippines, and proposing actionable legal solutions. It also emphasizes the importance of integrating technology into the regulatory process to enhance oversight and consumer protection. Ultimately, this study aims to inform policymakers, regulators, and stakeholders in Indonesia’s fintech industry about the necessary legal reforms to create a more transparent, equitable, and secure online lending environment.
