Abstract

The study investigates the Save Haven properties of Gold, West Texas Intermediate (WTI) Crude Oil and Indonesian Government Bonds with maturities of 5 and 10 years against the Indonesian stock market over the period 2019 – 2024.  The period encompasses episodes of global financial stress, the COVID-19 pandemic, post-pandemic recovery, and heightened geopolitical and macroeconomic uncertainty from 2019 to 2024. Understanding safe-haven assets is crucial for investors in the Indonesian stock market, especially during periods of market turbulence. This study examines the characteristics of these assets, their link with geopolitical factors and economic stability, the influence of foreign exchange rates, and the function of diversification strategies in risk mitigation. We applied quantile regression method processed to evaluate relationship across different points of the return distribution. The results indicate that gold functions as a conditional safe-haven asset in Indonesia. Government bonds 5 years and 10 years demonstrate a maturity-dependent safe-haven attribute. Conversely, WTI crude oil serves as a significant safe haven predominantly in the later segments of the sample, notably in 2023 and 2024, while exhibiting minimal safe-haven characteristics during the initial periods. Overall, the results underscore the inherently dynamic and asset-specific nature of safe-haven effectiveness in emerging markets, demonstrating that no single asset consistently provides protection across all market scenarios in Indonesia

Abstract

This research aims to examine the impact of divestment occurring in the shares of PT. Mora Telematika Tbk on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. This research is categorized as a comparative study, which aims to compare the stock performance of PT Mora Telematika Indonesia Tbk before and after the divestment by PT XL Axiata Tbk. Performance is measured using two key metrics: actual return and trading volume activity. The data used in this study are secondary data, specifically daily closing stock prices (Closed Price) sourced from published financial statements and financial performance summaries of PT Mora Telematika Indonesia Tbk. The observation period covers one month prior to the divestment and one month following the divestment by PT XL Axiata Tbk. The data analysis technique used in this research is comparative analysis, which compares stock performance based on actual return and trading volume activity of PT Mora Telematika Indonesia Tbk before and after the divestment by PT XL Axiata Tbk. The data analysis method utilizes paired sample tests, specifically the Wilcoxon test. Based on the research findings, it is concluded that the divestment had a significant impact on the actual stock returns of PT Mora Telematika Tbk. The actual returns experienced an average decline of 11%, driven by dominant factors such as negative sentiment or rumors surrounding the company’s shares, as well as investor profit-taking. On the other hand, the Trading Volume Activity (TVA) showed no significant change before and after the divestment.

Abstract

This study examines the effect of institutional ownership on IPO oversubscription in the Indonesian capital market, explicitly addressing the role of asymmetric information both as an explanatory factor and as a potential moderator. Drawing on signaling theory and information asymmetry theory, the study contributes to the IPO literature by empirically testing whether institutional investors serve as credible signals under conditions of uneven information distribution. Using a sample of 96 oversubscribed IPO firms listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during 2020–2022, multiple regression and moderated regression analysis are employed. The findings show that institutional ownership and asymmetric information each exert a positive and economically meaningful effect on oversubscription, while asymmetric information does not significantly moderate the institutional ownership–oversubscription relationship. This result fills a gap in the literature where asymmetric information has largely been treated as either a direct determinant or a conceptual argument, rather than a tested moderating mechanism. The findings imply that heightened information frictions may amplify speculative demand rather than dampen investor participation, with important implications for IPO pricing, disclosure quality, and investor protection in emerging markets.

Abstract

This study seeks to investigate the impact of User Generated Content (UGC) and testimonials on brand awareness, with engagement serving as a mediating variable, for the skincare company Glad2Glow on TikTok. This study utilizes a quantitative methodology through the implementation of a survey technique. Data were gathered via questionnaires administered to respondents TikTok users and have encountered Glad2Glow’s digital marketing content. Sampling technique was purposive sampling, with the respondent count established according to predetermined study criteria. The investigation utilized Partial Least Squares–Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The findings demonstrate that testimonials have a significant effect on engagement and brand awareness, with engagement effectively mediating the relationship between testimonials and brand awareness. These findings indicate that genuine, experience-driven testimonials enhance audience engagement and bolster brand awareness. The study reveals that User Generated Content (UGC) does not significantly influence brand awareness, neither directly nor indirectly via engagement as a mediating variable. This suggests that broad or low-credibility user-generated content may inadequately facilitate meaningful connections and is insufficient for establishing robust brand perceptions in consumers' thoughts. The findings offer managerial insights for organizations to develop more effective digital marketing strategies by emphasizing credible testimonial-based material to improve brand awareness on social media platforms.
