Abstract

With a governance shift in Indonesia, a heavy burden has been placed on local governments to act in their citizens’ best interests. This study generated evidence of economic structure, economic growth, and local government policies in the new autonomous city of Banjar Municipality, West Java Province, Indonesia. This study used location quotient, shift-share, and ordinary least squares regression analyses. Results reveal that from 2017 to 2019, agriculture, accommodations, business and trade, public services, and other sectors dominated the economic structure of Banjar Municipality. Notably, the Banjar city government's sustainability policy, aimed at developing local road infrastructure and protecting traditional markets, plays an essential role in maintaining the city’s economic growth. Policies oriented toward sustainability emphasize control, orderliness, and acceleration of economic activity; however, local authorities are at times faced with challenges when a transition of regional leadership occurs. This study provides critical insights that complement the theorization and evaluation of new autonomous cities' attempts to achieve community welfare.

Abstract

Chief executive officers (CEOs) of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) firms are known to take lesser pay and engage themselves in corporate social responsibility activities to achieve the dual objective of the enhancement of firm’s performance as well as benefit for stakeholders in the long run. This study examines the role of ESG transparency in strengthening the impact of firm performance on total CEO pay in ESG firms. A panel of 67 firms for the period of 2014–2019 has been analyzed using the two-step system GMM model, with NSE Nifty 100 ESG Index as the data sample and ESG scores from Bloomberg database as a proxy for transparency. Findings reveal that environmental and governance disclosure scores have the potential to intensify the negative relationship between firm performance and CEO compensation, while social disclosure scores do not. In addition, various firm-specific, board-specific, and CEO-specific attributes have also been considered controls affecting remuneration. This paper contributes to the literature by exploring the effect of exhibiting ESG transparency and its nexus with CEO pay as well as firm performance.

Abstract

This study investigates the cointegration and causality among environmental quality (CO2 emissions), international trade, economic growth, and tourism of five Central Asian Republic States (CARS-5), namely Azerbaijan, Tajikistan, Kazakhstan, the Kyrgyz Republic, and Uzbekistan, for 1992–2018. To this end, we employed the Johansen cointegration approach, modified Wald tests, and the Toda & Yamamoto (1995) approach. The empirical results showed that the variables were cointegrated in the long run, and the Granger causality test results revealed the existence of causality in the series. Furthermore, the empirical results validated both the export-led and the tourism-led growth hypotheses for Tajikistan and Kazakhstan. These findings suggest that the CARS-5 should develop appropriate and prudent public policies to stimulate sustainable economic development.

Abstract

This study aims to describe tax avoidance or tax aggressiveness committed by a public company in Indonesia. To maintain company sustainability, taxation strategy must always be supported by a non-financial system. In Indonesia, sustainability report disclosure is voluntary, but the Indonesian government handles the issue by requiring the inclusion of social and environmental activities in the report as taxable operational costs. The research sample of this study comprises public companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange, which have submitted sustainability reports separately. A total of 68 companies were involved, from which 132 datasets were obtained for further analysis via regression test. This research introduces a new way to measure tax aggressiveness (fiscal effective tax rate) to supplement the results generated by the existing measure (GAAP effective tax rate). The development of research shows that sustainability reporting has a significant effect on tax aggressiveness committed by public companies in Indonesia.

Abstract

This research aims to explore the commitment of Indonesian mining companies to environmental sustainability and ensure that they operate following ethical rules without damaging the nature. A content analysis investigates information related to the environment. Research sources include 33 environmental items seen from 7 sustainability reports of Indonesian mining companies. The text’s substance is also examined by identifying various specific characteristics of a message objectively, systematically, and in general. Research results showed that out of 45 mining companies in Indonesia, only 7 had disclosed sustainability reporting. All companies had an environmental commitment but with different stressing. Some companies reveal more about biodiversity; some are more focused on managing both renewable and nonrenewable energy, while others concentrate on effluents and waste. Since mining companies use numerous natural resources as their raw material, these companies should be more committed and concerned about the sustainability of nature and the environmental damage it causes. This study only examined seven sustainability reports from Indonesian mining companies. For future research, the researcher suggested observing annual reports of mining companies that do not disclose sustainability reporting and expressed concerns about the environment, both in Indonesia and Asia as a whole.

Abstract

This paper aims to investigate whether firms that comply with corporate social responsibility (CSR) expenditure and undertake voluntary sustainability reporting will have lower systematic risk and higher stock returns—the proxies for measuring firm performance—in mandatory CSR regimes in India. The instrumental approach of stakeholder theory asserts that firms considering stakeholders’ interests, including societal interest, are likely to show better firm performance compared to others. Therefore, on the basis of such a theory, this study attempts to link sustainability reporting and CSR compliance with firm performance. One-way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and post-hoc tests were used to examine the proposed hypotheses and analyze the results for firms meeting the criteria of CSR provisions and are listed in the National Stock Exchange (NSE) of India. The period of study covers four financial years from 2015–16 to 2018–19, after India mandated CSR expenditure on April 1, 2014. Results reveal that markets value those firms that meet the mandatory CSR expenditure requirement but do not undertake voluntary sustainability reporting. The findings offer important implications for firms, investors, and policymakers of countries, including those that are planning for CSR legislation.

Abstract

The challenges posed by environmental degradation and abandoning of social rights to secure business interests have highlighted the importance of focusing on sustainable development within the global financial system, especially among citizens and policymakers. The timely declaration of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by the United Nations is appropriate in addressing environmental degradation. In fact, the SDGs have become part of the fundamental agenda and essential requirements of every business, including Islamic financial institutions. In particular, the concept of sustainable development is parallel with Islamic teachings, which promote welfare, security, and rights for the sake of the current and future generations. Furthermore, Islamic finance and the SDGs are closely associated, as the former is capable of serving a meaningful function in sustainable development to achieve the goals of implementing fair and equitable tools, promoting resource mobilization, and enabling social benefit tools. Therefore, this study highlights an important case for Islamic financial institutions by expounding on the best indicators for sustainable Islamic finance.

Abstract

The hotel industry provides numerous jobs and has a significant contribution to local and global economies. Given that the hotel industry is an industry with a significant global impact, it is required to take social and environmental responsibilities earnestly. This study aims to describe the corporate social responsibility (CSR) strategies of five-star hotels in Denpasar City to examine the perceptions of surrounding communities toward these programs and to develop the appropriate CSR strategies for these hotels. This research is a qualitative study employing an exploratory sequential mixed method. The sample of hotel management staff who were interviewed and other respondents who filled out the research questionnaire were selected via purposive sampling. Results prove that CSR in five-star hotels in Denpasar City does not have its own autonomous field and budget authority. In fact, just one five-star hotel in the city has a CSR department. CSR activities in the hotels are in the form of maintenance and donations, and most of them (59%) are perceived as low by the surrounding community. Based on these findings, this work is able to develop a CSR management strategy for five-star hotels in Denpasar City.

Abstract

The social dimension of sustainability in supply chain management is significant but less prominent. This study investigates the role of a manager’s social commitment in achieving an organization’s social performance. A model with four constructs was developed to study the impact of the manager’s social commitment on social outcomes. Research was carried out on Pakistani firms through a survey-based questionnaire. From a total of 360 respondents (managers of Pakistani organizations) identified initially, 158 sent their responses after repeated follow-ups. Structural Equation Modeling was used for data analysis. The results show that socially committed managers play a significant role in achieving organization’s social performance. Furthermore, implementing social sustainable supply chain practices mediates the relationship between manager’s social commitment and organization’s social performance. This study shows that an organization’s culture promotes the implementation of social practices and helps managers adopt social responsive activities and achieve social outcomes. Additionally, this study along with theoretical support to understand the manager’s role in changing the business environment to resolve emerging social issues and improve the firm’s reputation, also provides empirical evidence from a developing country’s perspective, supported by the significant results.

Abstract

Obtaining information about a company’s financial statements has become increasingly important. Thus, highly skilled and expert public accountants are required who can execute their tasks following ethical standards. This study investigates the effects of audit professional skepticism and auditor expertise and integrity on audit quality in the accounting profession, with auditor ethics as the moderating variable. The study sample consisted of 65 auditors working in 14 public accounting firms in Surabaya, Indonesia. Data were collected through questionnaires and then analyzed using the SmartPLS approach. Results indicated that audit professional skepticism and auditor expertise and integrity positively influence audit quality. On one hand, auditor expertise, which is moderated by auditor ethics, positively influences audit quality. On the other hand, audit professional skepticism and integrity, which are moderated by auditor ethics, do not influence audit quality. The findings suggest that auditors must further improve their compliance with ethical standards to strengthen their integrity, which in turn, enables them to produce good audit quality. Furthermore, auditors must always strive to increase their professional skepticism and expertise.
