Abstract

Background: Managerial performance in local government organizations remains a persistent governance challenge, as formal administrative reforms and participatory budgeting mechanisms have demonstrated limited and inconsistent capacity to produce effective organizational outcomes. Existing literature has predominantly conceptualized budget participation and information asymmetry as isolated technical variables, leaving the relational governance mechanisms connecting these constructs to managerial effectiveness substantially underexplored. Method: This study employs a quantitative explanatory design using cross-sectional survey data collected from 178 officials within Local Government Organizations (Organisasi Perangkat Daerah/OPD) in Bantul Regency, Indonesia. Data were analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) via SmartPLS 4, with Leader–Member Exchange (LMX) positioned as a relational governance mediator. Results: Budget participation positively affects managerial performance (β = 0.210) and LMX quality (β = 0.675), while information asymmetry exerts significant negative effects on both managerial performance (β = −0.179) and LMX (β = −0.536). LMX strongly influences managerial performance (β = 0.650) and significantly mediates both relationships, confirming its role as a primary relational governance mechanism. Conclusion: Governance effectiveness in local government is fundamentally relational rather than procedural. The findings resonate with Islamic governance principles of shura, amanah, and adalah, suggesting that participatory, transparent, and trust-based governance practices are essential for sustained managerial effectiveness in public sector institutions.

Abstract

This study presents a systematic literature review of public sector accounting fraud to identify the geographical distribution of publications, the most influential journals, trending research topics, and future research agendas. The review followed the PRISMA 2020 methodology, initially identifying 742 records from databases, which were screened based on publication years (2021–2025) and subject area relevance, resulting in 54 studies included in the final analysis. The findings reveal that Asia, particularly Indonesia (37 articles), dominates global publication volume, with developing countries collectively contributing 58% of total output, surpassing developed countries (32%). The most influential journals in the last five years include COGENT BUSINESS AND MANAGEMENT and the JOURNAL OF FORENSIC ACCOUNTING RESEARCH. Trending topics include fraud detection, fraud prevention, forensic accounting, whistleblowing, and integrating the fraud triangle with internal control and audit quality. Future research agendas should focus on strengthening the link between whistleblowing and forensic accounting, incorporating organizational studies into fraud prevention models, and developing cross-country comparative studies. This study acknowledges limitations in database coverage, citation-based impact metrics, and geographical bias stemming from Indonesia dominance.
