Abstract

This study aims to analyze the use of verified WhatsApp accounts by Indonesia's Directorate General of Taxes (DGT) as an official communication channel to build public trust. The research is motivated by the rise of digital fraud impersonating DGT—especially via WhatsApp—which has weakened public confidence in the tax authority. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, the study collected data through literature review, policy documentation, interviews with MSME actors and DGT officials, and observation of verified WhatsApp account usage. The findings indicate that verified WhatsApp accounts function as strategic credibility signals (signaling), enhance communication effectiveness (media richness), reinforce institutional legitimacy and trust (compliance), and facilitate trust transfer from institution to platform (trust transfer). The verified badge allows the public to distinguish official sources from fake ones, boosting both trust and voluntary tax compliance. The study recommends standardizing the use of verified WhatsApp accounts across all Tax Service Offices (KPP) as part of DGT's digital communications strategy.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the influence of tax morale, perceptions of fairness, trust in government, and tax knowledge on the tax compliance level of Generation Z and Millennials in Palu City. A quantitative approach was employed, utilizing primary data collected through questionnaires distributed to 400 respondents. Data analysis was conducted using the Structural Equation Modeling method based on Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS). The results indicate that tax morale and tax knowledge have a positive and significant effect on tax compliance. These findings affirm that higher levels of tax morale and tax knowledge among taxpayers lead to greater compliance with tax obligations. Conversely, perceptions of fairness and trust in government do not significantly affect tax compliance, suggesting that these aspects are not yet strongly perceived by taxpayers as motivating factors for fulfilling tax obligations. Based on these results, the study recommends enhancing tax education for younger generations, strengthening moral values through social programs and tax volunteer initiatives, and improving government transparency and accountability in tax management to build public trust. This research provides valuable insights for developing strategies to increase tax compliance among the younger population, particularly in regional contexts.

Abstract

The growing economic inequality in Indonesia necessitates the adoption of fairer fiscal policies, including the implementation of a wealth tax. This study employs a qualitative case study approach to assess the potential of wealth taxation targeting High Net Worth Individuals (HNWIs). Data were obtained through comparative analysis of international wealth tax policies and interviews with government officials, academics, and tax practitioners. The findings reveal that a wealth tax could function as an effective instrument for economic redistribution, yet its implementation faces challenges such as resistance from affluent groups, risks of capital flight, and asset valuation complexities. Evidence from Switzerland, Japan, and Bolivia highlights that successful implementation depends on sound policy design, including appropriate wealth thresholds, progressive rates, and strong enforcement mechanisms. To ensure effectiveness in Indonesia, strategic measures involving regulatory clarity, administrative capacity building, and international cooperation are essential. A well-structured wealth tax may increase state revenue while reducing economic disparity sustainably.  Keywords: Economic Inequality; High Net-Worth Individuals; Wealth Redistribution; Wealth Tax.

Abstract

Beyond Budgeting has emerged as a promising model in the modern context where adaptive and sustainable fund management is critically needed. This approach empowers organizations to achieve greater flexibility, innovation, and enhanced performance. This study examines the potential implementation of a Beyond Budgeting framework in managing village funds within the Baduy community in Indonesia. The research employed a descriptive-qualitative methodology, conducted in Kanekes, Lebak Regency. A qualitative approach was chosen to gain an in-depth understanding of participants' perspectives and experiences, utilizing semi-structured interviews, direct interactions, and observation. Data were analyzed to identify patterns and key findings relevant to village fund management. The observation analysis included data grouping, comparative analysis of similarities and differences in observed events, and interpretation within the local context. The findings suggest that integrating Beyond Budgeting principles into the Baduy community's village fund management is both feasible and highly relevant. The Baduy tribe exhibits strong local wisdom in resource and environmental management, emphasizing sustainability and communal values. Crucially, the principles of flexibility, transparency, and participation embedded in the Beyond Budgeting model align closely with these traditional values. Therefore, adapting Beyond Budgeting in the Baduy context could significantly enhance fund management practices while simultaneously preserving cultural integrity and promoting sustainable development.

Abstract

This paper explores the macroeconomic determinants shaping the composition of Indonesia’s sovereign debt portfolio, distinguishing between foreign loans, government securities, and sukuk instruments. Using quarterly data from 2010 to 2025 and a Vector Error Correction Model (VECM), the study reveals robust long-run cointegration between key macro variables and debt composition. Exchange rate stability, global interest rate dynamics, and fiscal policy adjustments emerge as dominant drivers. Policy implications underscore the importance of active debt diversification and macroprudential coordination to enhance fiscal resilience. Employing the Vector Error Correction Model (VECM), the analysis examines the impact of the exchange rate (X1), LIBOR (X2), SIBOR (X3), U.S. Prime Rate (X4), Japan Prime Rate (X5), foreign exchange reserves (X6), inflation rate (X7), and GDP growth rate (X8) on the allocation of foreign loans (Y1), government debt securities (Y2), and state sharia securities (Y3) over the period 2010–2025. The findings reveal that the relationships between the dependent variables (Y1, Y2, Y3) and the macroeconomic indicators (X1–X8) are both dynamic and heterogeneous in the short and long term. These results underscore that the effectiveness of economic policy is not solely dependent on direct interventions targeting debt instruments, but also on the government's ability to manage long-term adjustment mechanisms and short-term transmission channels, particularly through key variables such as X5, X3, and X2.

Abstract

Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) constitute the backbone of the national economy but often face constraints in accessing financing. Since 2007, the People’s Business Credit (Kredit Usaha Rakyat, KUR) program has been designed to expand MSME financial inclusion through affordable loan interest rates and a broad distribution network. This study analyzes the impact of KUR on borrowers’ economic performance using a quantitative one-group pretest–posttest design. Primary data were collected to capture conditions before and after financing within a one-year observation window. Paired difference tests (Paired t-test/Wilcoxon) were applied according to data distribution. The results show significant increases in revenue (+17.10%), profit (+16.27%), and employment (+22.22%). These findings confirm the effectiveness of KUR in enhancing business productivity and income dimensions, although its social effects remain limited. Policy measures that promote business mentoring and financial literacy are recommended to extend KUR’s benefits toward transforming MSME business models.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze tax incentive policies that can encourage investment in the development of the Nusantara Capital City (IKN). This study employs a qualitative research method with a descriptive approach, utilizing secondary data gathered from a range of sources, including literature, documents, scientific journals, official government websites, and other reliable sources. The study's results indicate that the government provides various types of tax incentive policies to encourage investment in the development of the IKN. These various tax incentives have a positive impact on increasing investment in the IKN. However, this policy faces challenges due to the existence of global minimum tax provisions, as implemented through Pillar 2 of the Base Erosion and Profit Shifting (BEPS) 2.0 initiative. Additionally, tax incentives are not the primary factor that encourages investment. Therefore, the government can immediately formulate further regulations related to tax incentive policies by adjusting the provisions of Pillar 2 BEPS 2.0. For further researchers, it is advisable to develop more concrete and specific tax incentive policies in the IKN.

Abstract

This paper revisits the four foundational principles of taxation—neutrality, simplicity, certainty, and equity—as the bedrock of a fiscally independent and socially just tax system in Indonesia. Despite commendable progress in post-pandemic fiscal consolidation, Indonesia’s tax-to-GDP ratio has stagnated near 12 percent, far below the Asia-Pacific average of 19 percent. The study combines historical review, comparative analysis, and institutional assessment to argue that reaffirming these principles is essential to attain the country’s Vision 2045 target of high-income status. Drawing on OECD, IMF, and DDTC data (2019–2025) and the most recent academic literature, the paper shows that distortionary incentives, administrative complexity, and uneven enforcement undermine revenue potential. The analysis culminates in a policy framework that aligns neutrality, simplicity, certainty, and equity with digital-era governance and sustainable fiscal independence.

Abstract

Capital structure a crucial role because it directly impacts a company's financial position. Capital structure is a fundamental factor related to a company's funding decisions, both through long-term and short-term debt. This study aims to analyze the effect of sales growth, profitability as measured by Return on Assets (ROA), and asset structure as measured by Tangibility Assets (TA), on capital structure as measured by Debt to Equity Ratio (DER). This study employed a quantitative approach with a purposive sampling technique. The population of the study was 32 companies listed on the IDX80 Index during the 2019–2023 period, resulting in a total of 160 samples. The analysis used panel data regression with Eviews 13 software. The results showed that sales growth, profitability, and asset structure did not affect capital structure in companies listed on the IDX80 index during that period.
