Abstract

This study analyzes the factors influencing Indonesia's budget deficit during 1996-2023. The method used in this study is Ordinary Least Square (OLS) regression. The dependent variable in this study is the budget deficit, while the independent variables include Gross Domestic Product (GDP), foreign exchange reserves, exchange rates, inflation, and Indonesia's state debt. The study results indicate that gross domestic product (GDP), inflation, and government debt do not significantly affect the budget deficit in Indonesia. In contrast, the foreign exchange reserves and exchange rate variables have a positive and significant effect on foreign exchange reserves, meaning that an increase in these variables tends to increase the budget deficit. By understanding the factors that influence the budget deficit, it is hoped that the government can take more effective steps in maintaining the country's fiscal and economic stability.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of agricultural GRDP, agricultural labor, and farmer exchange rate on poverty on the island of Sumatra using a dynamic panel approach with the Generalized Method of Moments (GMM) method. The data type used is panel data covering 10 provinces on the island of Sumatra from 2017-2023. The method used is dynamic panel data regression analysis with the Generalised Method of Moments (GMM) method. The results showed that agricultural GRDP had a negative and insignificant effect on poverty, agricultural labor had a positive and significant impact on poverty and the farmer exchange rate (NTP) had a positive and insignificant impact on poverty. The government can encourage the growth of the agricultural sector by prioritizing export-oriented commodities and improving workers' ability through better skills training. In addition, assistance to farmers, especially in regulating selling prices at the farm level, diversifying agricultural products, improving the quality of agricultural products, and downstream agrarian products to encourage the agricultural sector, increasing technological intensity, and choosing the right method or cropping pattern.

Abstract

This paper examines how natural disasters affect exports of the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) economies including how institutional quality (government effectiveness) plays a role in the export flows after natural disasters hit the economies. While various literatures have identified these issues separately, this research would like to fill this gap by exploring the linkages between exports, natural disasters, and institutional quality. The analysis in this paper is based on the gravity model theory which used exports, natural disasters, and the government effectiveness index data from 2003-2022. Overall, the results show that natural disasters have a negative association with the export flows from APEC both at the time when natural disasters hit and in the following year. Having the government effectiveness index above the APEC's average has positively counteracted the negative effect caused by natural disasters, particularly when devastating catastrophes hit the economies. The findings in this paper are relevant for APEC economies that are prone to experience natural disasters, but they need economic growth, particularly from exports. Some policy implications can be drawn from these results such as in the area of export strategies, improving government effectiveness, and disaster preparedness. The key message here is to encourage the APEC economies which are vulnerable to face natural disasters, to keep maintaining a positive export performance through improving the government effectiveness.

Abstract

Makassar City, one of Indonesia's big cities, still faces poverty. The poverty data published by the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) shows that over the last decade (2010-2023), the average percentage of poverty decreased very small, only around 0.06%, and the number decreased by only about 124 people. This research aims to find out how the strengthening of MSMEs is carried out by the Makassar City government, as well as how it impacts poverty alleviation. The respondents in this study were 102 MSME actors registered with the Cooperatives and SMEs Office. The analysis method uses a quantitative descriptive and explanatory approach with a binary logistic regression model. The results of the descriptive analysis show that MSME actors who have per capita expenditure above the poverty line are more than those who have per capita expenditure below the poverty line. Efforts to strengthen MSMEs are carried out through collaboration between local governments and state-owned banks, startups, and marketplaces through several trainings, including marketing and digital financial management. The variables of training and Labor have a significant effect on poverty alleviation, while the variables of business credit do not affect poverty alleviation. MSME actors who participated in more than one training 17 times had a per capita income above the poverty line compared to MSME actors who did not participate in training. MSME actors who use Labor 9 times have a per capita income above the poverty line compared to MSME actors who do not use Labor.

Abstract

This study examines the bibliometric analysis of monetary policy in a dual banking system, encompassing Islamic and conventional banks. Monetary policy is a central bank instrument for managing economic stability through interest rate control, inflation regulation, and liquidity management. The study aims to identify publications related to monetary policy in the context of Islamic and conventional banks and to understand research trends in this field. The bibliometric analysis method was employed using VOSviewer software, with data sourced from the Dimensions database spanning 2015-2024. The findings indicate that the United States and Indonesia are the leading countries in terms of publication volume and total link strength. Additionally, the Journal of Islamic Accounting and Business is identified as the most influential journal in this area. Keywords such as Monetary Policy, Dual Banking System, and Islamic Banks frequently appear as dominant research themes. The most influential article is Aysan (2017), which analyzes interest rate sensitivity in Turkey's dual banking system. The study concludes that monetary policy plays a crucial role in both banking systems, with distinct transmission mechanisms. Future research is recommended to utilize broader datasets and integrate bibliometric analysis with qualitative or quantitative approaches to deepen the interpretation of interrelated research topics.

Abstract

This study, titled “Causality Analysis of Inflation and Interest Rates in Indonesia Post-COVID-19 (2020.1-2024.9),” aims to examine the long-term equilibrium between inflation and interest rate variables and to explore their causal relationship during the post-pandemic period. The research utilizes secondary data in the form of monthly time series from January 2020 to September 2024, sourced from Bank Indonesia publications. The cointegration test results indicate no long-term equilibrium between inflation and interest rates. However, the Granger causality test reveals a bidirectional relationship between the two variables, meaning that inflation influences interest rates, and interest rates, in turn, affect inflation. Specifically, high inflation tends to drive up interest rates, while an increase in interest rates can suppress inflation. Therefore, Bank Indonesia must carefully consider this dynamic. Any changes in interest rates should not only be assessed based on their impact on inflation but also on how inflation itself may influence future interest rate decisions. This creates a complex cycle of interdependence between the two variables, particularly in the context of a volatile economic environment. This study provides insights into the interaction of these key economic indicators within the framework of Indonesia’s post-pandemic economic recovery.

Abstract

The global economy faces multiple crises that undermine stability and hinder growth, with developing countries being particularly vulnerable. For policymakers in these nations, achieving sustainable development is a top priority to foster long-term progress. The research attempts to establish the primary factors influencing economic growth across 11 developing countries, analyzing data spanning from 2013 to 2022. Using a fixed-effects approach in the panel data regression model, we employ GDP as a proxy for economic growth and include key variables such as public debt, trade openness, gross fixed capital formation, inflation, and population growth. The results indicate that public debt, trade openness, and gross fixed capital formation positively and significantly impact economic growth. These findings emphasize the role of capital accumulation and an open trade policy in fostering development. Conversely, inflation and population growth have significant negative effects on growth, highlighting the need for price stabilization and effective population management to avoid resource strain and inflationary pressures. Based on these results, the study recommends structural reforms and regulatory frameworks to enhance positive growth factors while addressing negative influences. Policies that encourage capital investment, maintain balanced public debt levels, and support trade openness, combined with efforts to control inflation and manage population growth, can provide a foundation for sustainable economic stability. The study ultimately underscores the importance of proactive strategies for sustaining growth and enhancing the resilience of developing countries amid global economic challenges.

Abstract

This study conducts research related to the impact of implementing trade policies in the form of anti-dumping measures, which influence changes in import patterns from targeted countries. Analysis results using the difference-in-difference (DID) method, which compares the volume of imports from targeted and non-targeted countries in the period before and after the implementation of anti-dumping measures, show that the extension of anti-dumping measures has a significant effect on reducing imports from countries targeted by such measures. This research will provide new insight into the impact analysis of the implementation of anti-dumping measures for steel products in Indonesia, with observations that have experienced an extension of the measures.

Abstract

Food security is one of the main keys to realizing the welfare of the people in Indonesia. Currently, Indonesia is still experiencing serious food security problems, especially rice availability. Based on the Central Bureau of Statistics 2024, the highest level of insecurity across Indonesia is in East Nusa Tenggara Province, with a value of 14.68%. Meanwhile, the population in East Nusa Tenggara Province is quite large, with more than 5 million people. If the level of vulnerability is at the highest rank, it can be said that East Nusa Tenggara Province has very low food security. This study aims to analyze the effect of rice harvest area, rice productivity, and population density on food security in 21 districts and 1 city of East Nusa Tenggara Province from 2018 to 2023. This study uses secondary data in the form of panel data. The sample used in this study is data from 22 districts and cities in East Nusa Tenggara Province for 6 periods, with details, namely 22 x 6 = 132. This study found that simultaneously, the variables of rice harvest area, rice productivity, and population density in East Nusa Tenggara Province had a significant effect on food security. While partially obtaining results, namely the variable area of rice harvest and rice productivity, there is a significant effect on food security. The total population variable has no significant effect on food security.
