Abstract

This study seeks to contribute to the emerging debate regarding the effects of financial inclusion and openness on banking stability. Panel data from 217 developing and developed countries from 2004 to 2017 showed that financial inclusion did not affect banking stability. However, financial openness significantly affected banking stability in all countries worldwide. Furthermore, the interaction of financial inclusion and openness had a significant positive effect on banking stability in developing and all countries worldwide. This finding indicates that the more funds obtained by banks from the implementation of financial inclusion policy and financial openness policy, the greater the potential for banks to maintain their stability. Therefore, to maintain bank stability, each country needs to synchronize its policies on financial inclusion and financial openness. This finding also contributes to the literature on understanding the essential financial inclusion policies and financial openness to improve bank stability.

Abstract

Money (inflation) has played a vital role in economic growth. However, the nexus between them has always drawn mesmerizing debates. From the thoughts of Classical and Keynes which argued the existence of money neutrality, to the level of empirical studies which find either positive or negative correlation between inflation and economic growth. Recent studies concerning the debatable relationship have evolved it into a hypothesis whether the relation is nonlinear with a threshold or a point where the link switches. This study aims to re-examine the causality between inflation and economic growth in ASEAN-5 countries period 2000Q1–2016Q4. The results based on Threshold Vector Autoregression model indicate the presence of a nonlinear relationship between the two variables.

Abstract

The study examines saving behavior in ASEAN 5+3 namely Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, Philippines, Japan, China, and Korea during 1991-2007 and its implication toward global imbalances. By using fixed effect panel data regression, this research shows that government spending, interest rate and inflation, financial development through private domestic credit and stock market capitalization along with the 1997 Asian crisis significantly affect the saving behavior. As a result, a macroeconomic stability through interest rate and inflation, the reinforcement of financial development and crisis anticipation policy are required to support global re-balancing through global saving redistribution.

Abstract

Current account balance has an important role of measuring the direction and the amount of international loan. This study analyzes Indonesian external balance due to its solvency condition of external debt and sustainability of current account balance during 1970-2007 by intertemporal-model approach of current account. The results of cointegration test and bivariate autoregressive (VAR) indicate that solvency condition holds, but not for the sustainability condition of current account balance. It means that Indonesia has capability to payback its external debt.

Abstract

Penelitian ini menguji dua hipotesis dalam persaingan perbankan, yaitu competition stability dan competition-fragility di lima negara Asia Tenggara pada periode Masyarakat Ekonomi Asia dan dampak pandemi COVID-19 pada periode 2011–2022. Industri perbankan di Asia Tenggara telah mengalami pertumbuhan pesat konsolidasi bank, merger, dan akuisisi. Untuk tujuan investigasi ini, penulis menggunakan metode Merton distance to default dan Z-score sebagai pengukuran stabilitas keuangan dan menggunakan kompetisi Lerner index untuk pasar loan bank dan pasar deposit untuk mengevaluasi persaingan di industri perbankan. Penulis menemukan bahwa kedua hipotesis terjadi di industri perbankan Asia Tenggara, market power dapat mendorong stabilitas perbankan sementara tidak stabil dalam volatilitas pendapatan bank dan persaingan perbankan dapat membuat pendapatan dari operasi perbankan stabil untuk pasar loan, tetapi rentan terhadap risiko default.

Abstract

This study aims to develop a model to measure financial inclusion by incorporating the evolution of digital finance and identifying its relationship with GDP growth in emerging nations. Data used are from 51 developing countries in 2014 and 2017. Principal component analysis (PCA) was used to create the Digital Financial Inclusion Index. The fixed effects model (FEM) is used to estimate the association between the inclusion of digital finances and economic growth. According to the study, metrics of digital financial inclusion in emerging nations are in the middle. Compared to other research, the financial inclusion indicator in this study strengthens it. The study discovered that the inclusion of digital finance enhances GDP growth in developing nations after testing the influence of digital financial inclusion on GDP growth in developing countries.

Abstract

Indonesia’s fiscal policy is characterized by a persistent budget deficit, whereby government spending structurally exceeds revenues. To finance this gap, the government issues short-term government securities (GS). However, GS issuance generates interest expenses and may lead to idle cash accumulation in subsequent periods, raising concerns for GS management. Accordingly, this study investigated the extent to which government cash balances influence short-term GS issuance in Indonesia. Using quarterly data from 2015 to 2023, the autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) model was employed, supported by descriptive analysis, unit root testing, and robustness checks. Results indicate a linear relationship between GS issuance and cash balance. Particularly, an increase in cash balance will also increase GS issuance. Therefore, debt and cash managers must coordinate to increase the effectiveness of budget deficit financing through GS issuance and state cash management. The study contributes to the literature by highlighting the role of cash stability in shaping debt issuance behavior. Policy implications emphasize the need for stronger coordination between debt and cash managers to improve financing efficiency, minimize idle balances, and ensure sustainable fiscal discipline in government securities management.
