Abstract

This study examines how liquidity risk, credit growth, and third-party funding composition influence the profitability of Rural Banks (BPR), with bank size as a moderating factor. Using panel data from 22 conventional BPRs between 2019 and 2023 and applying a fixed-effect regression model, the results show that liquidity management and bank size are closely linked to higher profitability. Credit growth alone, however, is associated with reduced returns, but its interaction with bank size leads to improved performance. This indicates that larger banks are better equipped to handle the risks of rapid credit expansion, while smaller banks may face challenges. The composition of third-party funds shows little direct effect on profitability. The findings carry important practical implications. For bank managers, the results highlight the importance of balancing credit expansion with strong internal controls and prudent risk management, particularly in smaller institutions. Regulators such as OJK are encouraged to consider bank size when designing supervisory frameworks and early warning systems, to ensure sustainable financial performance in the rural banking sector.

Abstract

This study aims to examine and investigate the factors that influence stock returns. The variables analyzed in this study include liquidity, profitability, and solvency. The study population consists of manufacturing companies in the Consumer Non-Cyclical sector listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the 2021-2023 period. This study employs a quantitative approach, utilizing secondary data analysis. Sampling was conducted using a purposive sampling method, resulting in an initial sample of 127 companies with a total of 270 observations. During the data processing process, several outliers were identified, so they were removed, resulting in 123 valid observations. The analytical approach employed was quantitative, used to examine the relationship between variables. The results show that liquidity and solvency have a significant positive effect on stock returns.

Abstract

Rural banks (BPR) in Indonesia face persistent challenges of low profitability, weak capital adequacy, and high credit risk, despite their vital role in financing micro and small enterprises. This study investigates how internal financial indicators—Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR), Non-Performing Loans (NPL), Loan to Deposit Ratio (LDR), Cash Ratio (CR), and Operating Expenses to Operating Income (BOPO)—affect profitability, measured by Return on Assets (ROA), in rural banks under the OJK Jember jurisdiction during 2021–2023. Using purposive sampling, 33 rural banks were selected, and panel data regression with the Random Effects Model was applied following Chow, Hausman, and Breusch-Pagan LM tests. The results indicate that BOPO has a significant negative impact on ROA, highlighting operational efficiency as the primary determinant of profitability. By contrast, CAR, NPL, LDR, and CR exhibit no significant individual effects, although collectively they explain 88.03% of ROA variation. These findings confirm that efficiency drives profitability in small-scale financial institutions, while other financial ratios exert joint but indirect influence. This study contributes to the literature by clarifying the relative importance of efficiency in rural banking. It provides practical implications for managers and regulators to strengthen cost control, prudent lending, and liquidity management, thereby promoting sustainable performance.

Abstract

This study explores the relationship between firm risk-taking and financial performance, with a particular focus on the moderating role of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) practices. Using panel data from 86 firms listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange over the 2018–2023 period, Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) regression with year fixed effects was employed. The results show that risk-taking has a positive and significant effect on firm performance, supporting the risk–return trade-off perspective. However, the interaction term reveals a negative moderation, meaning that ESG weakens the relationship between risk-taking and firm performance. This suggests that firms with stronger ESG commitments adopt more cautious strategies, which may reduce short-term financial gains but reinforce long-term stability and stakeholder trust. The findings contribute to the literature by clarifying the dual role of ESG as both a performance enhancer and a risk-control mechanism in emerging markets. Managers should integrate ESG principles into their strategic risk management frameworks to ensure that risk-taking decisions are aligned with sustainability objectives. Future studies should adopt broader risk-taking measures (R&D investment or leverage), extend the scope to cross-country settings, and integrate qualitative approaches for deeper insights.
