Abstract

This research explores the influence of credit risk, specifically non-performing loans (NPL), on the profitability of Indonesian state-owned commercial banks, using operational efficiency as an intervening variable. State-owned banks in Indonesia play a significant role in supporting the national economy through credit distribution, particularly to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). However, rising NPL ratios present a critical challenge, impacting financial stability and profitability. The study investigates how NPLs, as a proxy for credit risk, affect profitability, with operational efficiency—measured by the operating expenses to operating income (OEOI) ratio—acting as a mediator. Using data from four state-owned banks over the period 2015–2024, the research applies path analysis and mediation tests to examine direct and indirect relationships. The findings reveal that NPL positively affects operating efficiency, which in turn negatively affects profitability (return on assets—ROA). Furthermore, operational efficiency significantly mediates the correlation between NPL and profitability. These outcomes suggest that improving operational efficiency can help diminish the negative influences of high credit risk. By integrating risk control mechanisms with operational efficiency, state-owned banks can ensure long-term profitability. This study provides practical insights for bank management in strengthening sustainable banking operations in an emerging economy.

Abstract

This study examines the effect of ESG disclosure, firm size, and financial performance on firm value in energy sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during 2021–2024. Using a quantitative approach, panel data regression was conducted in EViews on 19 companies selected through purposive sampling. The findings show that ESG disclosure has a negative and insignificant effect on firm value, while firm size has a positive but insignificant effect. Meanwhile, financial performance has a positive and significant effect on firm value, indicating that profitability remains the main factor considered by investors in valuing energy sector companies.
