Abstract

This paper aims at investigating the behavior of foreign direct investment (FDI) and domestic direct investment (DDI) in Indonesia, which is expected to be explained by several explanatory variables including the setting of regional minimum wage, inflation, as well as regional domestic product. More specifically, the investigation is focused on the effect of annual increase in the minimum regional wage, provided that it is a sensitive issue for investors. Using 33 provincial level data in a period from 2004 to 2012, this paper uses a dynamic panel data which allows us to see the behavior of direct investment in the short run as well as in the long run. The result shows that an increase in the regional minimum wage setting reduces both DDI and FDI in the short run. However, in the long run, an increase in the regional minimum wage is likely to increase both DDI and FDI. This is likely indicating that in the long run an increase in wage is expected to be accompanied by higher productivity, eventhough in the short run higher wage increases cost of production which will undermine investment.

Abstract

Despite increasing awareness of the importance of countercyclical policies to overcome financial system instability, the potential leak of such policies comes to attention due to economic agents' risk-taking behavior. This paper aims to investigate the potential leaks of the policy. Using the Estimator General Method of Moments-difference (GMM-diff), we found evidence that macroprudential policies are less functional in controlling non-financial firms' credit growth than household credit growth. The result amplifies hesitation about the effectiveness of macroprudential policy caused by potential leaks coming from non-financial firms' risk-taking behavior. We also found that macroprudential policy in developing countries is less effective than in developed countries. Hence, the financial stability goal cannot rely solely on macroprudential policy. Instead, it needs support from other mutual policies, such as the capital control policy and transparent regulatory boundaries, to prevent partial risk shift from regulated financial institutions to unregulated, prevalent in the less developed financial system.JEL Classification: E42, E44, E52, E58

Abstract

This study investigates overall ERPT in four ITF-adopting Asian Economies, emphasizing the trilemma between ERPT, economic openness, and the inflation target. Based on quarterly data observations from 1999 to the fourth quarter of 2022 with an application of combined distributed lag and adaptive expectation models that allows a fair assessment concerning ERPT throughout the time dimension, we reveal evidence that exchange rate changes will be transmitted immediately to increasing domestic prices in the short run. Similarly, increased interest policy, GDP, and trade openness will push consumer prices up in the short term through adaptive expectation mechanisms. However, the pass-through effect tends to decrease in the long run due to a credible ITF implementation. Meanwhile, the pass-through effect concerning trade openness varies across countries in the short run, while openness tends to increase pressures on consumer prices in the long run. This condition allows further investigation to examine the pass-through effect and its transmission to various prices, including prices, imports, export prices, economic structure, and the effect of fear of floating in the ITF.JEL Classification: E31, E52, E58, F31, F41How to Cite:Kurnia, A.

Abstract

Research Originality: The introduction of CBDC by the Central Bank of Indonesia has increased the intensity of news about CBDC. Besides aiming to introduce the future direction of the payment system, the news potentially causes uncertainty and speculation in the market, which may impact the rupiah exchange rate.Research Objectives: This research analyzes the impact of CBDC news on the rupiah exchange rate, synthesizing a sticky price version of the monetary approach to the exchange rate. Research Methods: A CBDC News Index is constructed based on a compilation of news data from major online media between 2018 and 2023. The structural VAR (SVAR) method is thenemployed to investigate the impact of CBDC news on the exchange rate dynamic.Empirical Results: The results suggest a trend consistent with the hypothesis, indicating that news about CBDC may lead to pressure on the domestic currency, resulting in depreciation. However, the impact is not statistically convincing as the coefficient is not statistically different from zero. The monetary approach synthesis findings suggest that raising the policy rate is likely efficacious in counteracting the pressure of domestic currency depreciation. Meanwhile, other monetary approach variables exhibit anomalies related to exchange rate dynamics.Implications: As the central bank plans to implement a Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC), it must carefully control the dissemination of information about what the CBDC will entail and how it will be rolled out. CBDC blueprint and official disclosure help reduce uncertainty and speculation about implementing CBDC.JEL Classification: D80, E58, F31How to Cite:Kurnia, A. S. & Assidiq, M. A. (2024).

Abstract

ABSTRACTLike other major cities, Semarang as the capitol city of the Central Java Province has problems in transportation. The problems emerge as a consequence of an increase in people mobility. At the same time, the quality of public transportation in Semarang has been a crucial issue as its development does not progress equally with the increase in people mobility.Using ordinary least square and binary logistic regression, this paper aims to analyse the preferences of public transportation users to use the Trans Semarang Bus Rapid Transit (BRT). Several variables namely the level of income, the private motorbike or car owning, and the BRT performance indicators are expected to explain the preferences of BRT. The probability of the BRT users to switch from BRT to other means of transportation when price is increased is expected to be explained using binary logistic regression.             The result shows that the major users of the BRT are low level income households. Within this circumstance, the OLS estimation shows that price is sensitive to the BRT user preferences. An increase in the BRT price will result in higher probability of the BRT users to switch from BRT to other means of transportation. The level of income and the BRT performance have positive impact on the BRT user preferences. Private motorbike ownership has a negative effect against the BRT user preferences which means that motorbike is a close substitution to the BRT. However as the major users of BRT are low income households, we can not show any evidences that car ownership does matter for the BRT users.

Abstract

Human development has become a national development priority in the vision of Indonesia Emas 2045, but the HDI score shows district-level inequality in increasing local government expenditure. This study aims to identify the effect of local government expenditure realization on HDI. The data used is 508 districts of Indonesia in 2017-2022, and it was analyzed using a panel data regression fixed-effect model. The novelty of this study lies in the local government at the district level and local government expenditure according to function and type classification. The study shows that education expenditure, health expenditure, economic expenditure, employee expenditure, and goods and services expenditure have a significant positive effect on HDI, but capital expenditure has a significant negative effect on HDI. Local governments are expected to understand the dominant role of health expenditure in increasing HDI, increase the budget allocation for economic and capital expenditure, reduce the budget allocation for employee and goods and services, and measure the performance of local government expenditure.

Abstract

This study attempts to analyze the role of financial inclusion in reducing poverty by using a production theory approach. This study used the production function as a function or equation that shows the relationship between the use of input combinations to produce the desired level of output in order to analyze the role of financial inclusion in reducing poverty. The results show that access to financial service products, especially loans, is used as capital input in community production activities. The community uses loans obtained from formal and informal financial institutions to increase their productivity through increased capital. Increased capital will increase output, so income will also increase.

Abstract

This study examines the impact of non-cash payment innovations on Indonesia’s financial system stability from 2009 to 2019. As technological advancements reshape payment systems, they present both opportunities and risks to financial stability. By utilizing the Structural Vector Auto Regression (SVAR) method, the study finds that the shift towards cashless payments reduces M1, indicating a decrease in the money supply. Additionally, innovations in the payment system increase the velocity of money circulation, which tends to drive inflationary pressures. However, the inflationary effect of non-cash payment transactions diminishes over time. This research highlights the dual nature of non-cash payment instruments in influencing both financial stability and inflation dynamics.

Abstract

Farmer groups play a strategic role in maintaining food security and the sustainability of the rural economy. One such group is the Nira Sari Murni Farmer Group, where most of its members rely on farming and coconut sap production for their income. However, the main challenge they face is suboptimal family financial management, which can impact household economic stability. The lack of expense recording, budget planning, and understanding of emergency fund management are common problems. Through this training, farmer group members are equipped with basic knowledge and skills in practical and applicable family financial management. The training covers techniques for preparing a household budget, recording daily cash flow, managing debt, and planning for short- and medium-term needs. This activity is expected to improve financial literacy and the economic resilience of farming families.
