Abstract

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) has become a critical component of corporate strategy, with growing evidence suggesting its impact on financial performance and cost of capital. In Indonesia, where sustainable business practices are increasingly prioritized, understanding the relationship between CSR and cost of capital is essential for both firms and investors. This study examines the influence of CSR activities on the cost of capital for firms listed on the Indonesian Stock Exchange, focusing on how CSR initiatives affect investor perceptions and risk assessments. The research aims to provide empirical evidence on whether CSR can serve as a strategic tool to reduce the cost of capital and enhance firm value. Using a quantitative approach, this study analyzes financial data and CSR disclosures from 150 firms listed on the Indonesian Stock Exchange over a five-year period. Regression analysis is employed to assess the relationship between CSR performance and cost of capital, measured by weighted average cost of capital (WACC). The findings reveal that firms with higher CSR performance tend to have a lower cost of capital, indicating that CSR initiatives can reduce perceived risk and attract socially responsible investors. The study concludes that CSR activities positively influence the cost of capital, providing firms with a financial incentive to invest in sustainable practices. This research contributes to the discourse on CSR and corporate finance by offering practical insights for firms seeking to enhance their financial performance through responsible business practices.

Abstract

Entrepreneurial resilience plays a critical role in determining the success or failure of startups, especially in highly volatile and competitive environments. While many studies have focused on the factors leading to startup success, less attention has been paid to how entrepreneurs recover from failure and the key traits that contribute to their resilience. Understanding these dynamics is essential for aspiring entrepreneurs and stakeholders in the startup ecosystem. This research aims to explore the concept of entrepreneurial resilience by analyzing case studies of both failed and successful startups. The study seeks to identify the factors that contribute to entrepreneurial resilience and how these factors influence the ability to recover from failure or sustain success. A qualitative case study approach was employed, focusing on 10 startup companies—5 that failed and 5 that succeeded. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with founders and key stakeholders, as well as secondary sources such as company reports and news articles. Thematic analysis was used to identify recurring patterns and key themes. The study found that successful entrepreneurs exhibited high levels of emotional intelligence, adaptability, and a strong support network. In contrast, failed startups often struggled with a lack of strategic foresight, poor decision-making, and inadequate resource management. Resilience factors, including mindset, leadership, and external support, were crucial in navigating both failure and success.

Abstract

Social forestry programs are globally promoted as a key strategy, but their equitable outcomes are critical. Indonesia's ambitious social forestry agenda aims to reallocate millions of hectares, prompting this research to critically analyze benefit-sharing mechanisms across key schemes (Hutan Desa, HKm, Hutan Adat). The objective was to evaluate their effectiveness in promoting social justice and community livelihoods. This study employed a qualitative, multi-site case study approach, utilizing 120 interviews and policy analysis through a social justice framework. The findings reveal a significant gap between policy goals and reality: while land tenure improved, benefits often fail to be equitably distributed, being captured by local elites and marginalizing vulnerable groups. Furthermore, procedural justice remains weak due to limited community participation in decision-making. The novelty lies in this critical, justice-focused evaluation of Indonesia's national program. The implication is that for Indonesia's social forestry to succeed, a fundamental redesign of benefit-sharing mechanisms is required. Policy must explicitly embed distributive, procedural, and recognitional justice principles to ensure meaningful livelihood improvements for the poorest and most marginalized community members.
