The study found that institutional ownership increases profitability (ROE) and firm value (PBV) at 5% and 10% significance levels, respectively. Profitability also increases company value at a 1% significance level. Profitability also mediates the effect of institutional ownership on firm value at the 10% significance level, indicating that institutional ownership can increase firm value through increased profitability. This study helps explain how institutional ownership boosts business value through profitability. This research has implications for regulators (OJK & IDX) and policymakers regarding corporate governance. Managers need to strengthen governance and transparency to maximize profitability and enhance company value. To better understand how institutional ownership affects business value, future research should expand variables, incorporate data from various industries, and conduct cross-country studies.]]>
