Abstract

The Indonesian government has launched various policies to prevent fraud by strengthening transparency and integrity. However, fraud in Indonesia remains high, including in regions that experience an increase every year. This study examines the mediating effect of transparency and accountability on the relationship between the age of the governor and fraud, as well as the moderating effect of integrity on the relationship between transparency, accountability, and fraud. This research was conducted in the Provincial Governments in Indonesia. Using the purposive sampling method, the research sample consists of 32 provincial governments in Indonesia during the period 2021-2023, resulting in 96 units of analysis. The data analysis of this research uses multiple regression, mediating regression, and moderating regression. The research results show that the age of the governor does not play a role in reducing fraud but directly contributes to fraud, while integrity does not moderate the influence of transparency and accountability on fraud. Conflict of interest between the executive and legislative branches in provincial government triggers political pressure, potentially leading to collusion that can reduce their oversight and honesty, thereby weakening transparency, accountability, and integrity, and increasing the risk of fraud. The separation of the functions of the Governor and legislators in the province must be implemented in best practices and reinforced in regulations.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effect of the Operating Expense Ratio to Operating Income (BOPO) on Return on Equity (ROE) and to examine the role of Independent Commissioners (KOMID) as a moderating variable. The population in this study consists of all companies within the BUMN Holding in Indonesia, which includes parent companies and subsidiaries designated by the Ministry of BUMN. The sample was determined using the purposive sampling method, resulting in 49 BUMN Holding companies that met the predetermined criteria, representing various industrial sectors within the BUMN holding, such as energy, finance, construction, and transportation. The research results reveal that BOPO and KOMID do not have a significant impact on ROE, and KOMID does not act as a moderator in that relationship. Reforms in the governance of state-owned enterprises (BUMN) and the substantial strengthening of the role of independent commissioners, not just quantitatively, are key to driving improvements in financial performance in the future.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the factors that influence the community's interest in taking out Mekaar loans for SMEs in Dagang Kerawan Village. Three factors examined in this study are financial literacy, credit requirements, and credit access. The study employs multiple linear regression analysis to test the impact of these three variables on the community’s interest. The results show that financial literacy (X1) has a significant impact on the public’s interest in accessing Mekaar financing. The higher the community's understanding of financial concepts such as interest, installments, and business management, the greater their interest. The ease, speed, and lack of bureaucracy in credit requirements (X2) also significantly influence, encouraging the public to access financing by fostering a sense of trust. Additionally, credit access (X3), which includes convenient locations, information, and direct approach by Mekaar officers, is a dominant factor in increasing community interest. Overall, these three independent variables were found to have a significant impact on the public's interest in choosing Mekaar financing, with each variable’s significance value being less than 0.05. This study recommends strengthening financial literacy, simplifying credit procedures, and improving accessibility to credit services as strategic steps to enhance community participation in the Mekaar program.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of pressure, opportunity, rationalization, and the use of information technology on academic fraud and to examine the role of religiosity as a moderator. This research was conducted at the Islamic University of North Sumatra with accounting students as respondents. The sample was selected using purposive sampling with the criteria of accounting students who had previously taken an exam, resulting in 162 respondents. The data obtained will be analyzed using Moderated Regression Analysis with an interaction test approach. This research adopts the fraud triangle theory approach into the realm of education at one Islamic University, which has cultural and academic environmental characteristics based on Islam. Additionally, this research adds the variable of information technology usage, which is relevant to current digital developments, and tests religiosity as a moderator, providing a psychological and moral perspective on students' tendency to cheat. The research findings revealed that rationalization and the use of information technology have a positive and significant impact on academic dishonesty, while pressure and opportunity do not. The interesting findings of this study indicate that religiosity acts as a moderator in the relationship between pressure and rationalization toward academic dishonesty. Educational institutions, particularly accounting study programs, need to instill and internalize religious and ethical values in the learning process, thereby building and strengthening an academic culture of integrity and reducing tolerance for various forms of justification that can encourage cheating.
