Abstract

This qualitative study investigates the psychological determinants influencing risk preferences and investment decisions. Grounded in phenomenology and interpretivism, the research aims to explore subjective experiences related to financial behavior. Employing purposive sampling, participants were selected based on diverse criteria. Data collection involved semi-structured interviews, participant observation, and document analysis. Thematic analysis revealed intricate interplays between personal experiences, cognitive biases, emotions, social influences, and financial literacy, shaping individuals' risk perceptions and decision-making processes. Findings underscore the multifaceted nature of financial behavior, highlighting the significance of personality traits, cognitive styles, and decision-making biases. Risk-averse individuals prioritized capital preservation, while sensation seekers pursued high-risk, high-reward investments. Moreover, individuals' self-efficacy influenced their investment strategies. Cognitive biases, such as overconfidence and loss aversion, further impacted investment decisions. The study emphasizes the importance of considering psychological factors in designing personalized financial interventions and educational programs. Future research directions include longitudinal studies, cross-cultural comparisons, and interdisciplinary approaches integrating insights from psychology, economics, and finance. This research contributes to the advancement of knowledge in behavioral finance and informs practical implications for financial advisors and policymakers, aiming to enhance individuals' financial well-being and decision-making competence.

Abstract

Accounting information in financial statements is very important for users of financial statements when deciding. Management tries to make these financial statements perform well. Opportunistically, managers can manipulate financial statements to make them look good, which encourages companies to commit fraud on financial statements. This study uses the Fraud Hexagon component to examine the factors that influence financial statement fraud. Fraud hexagon theory is the latest six-dimensional fraud component developed by Vousinas by adding aspects of collusion. Sample selection is based on the purposive sampling method. The analysis method used in this research is panel data logistic regression analysis through the Eviews 10 application. The results showed that opportunity, rationalization, and capability did not affect financial statement fraud. The other three components of the fraud hexagon, namely pressure, arrogance, and conspiracy, significantly affect financial statement fraud.

Abstract

This study aims to assess the impact of financial risk and a viable business scale on the volume of capital funding for SMEs at PT PNM Mekaar Takalar. The research provides valuable insights and knowledge for readers to better understand financial risks, business scale, feasibility, and capital funding. Specifically, the objective is to examine the relationship between financial risk, business scale, and financial feasibility on the volume of capital funding for SME customers at PT PNM (Persero) Mekaar Takalar Unit. The research poses a key question: Does the risk of a viable business scale have a significant positive impact on the volume of capital funding for SMEs at PT PNM Mekaar Takalar? This study employs an associative quantitative approach, which examines the relationship between two or more variables, as defined by Sugiyono (2013). The research explores three main variables: financial risk (X1), business scale (X2), and financial feasibility (X3), and their influence on the capital funding volume of PT PNM Mekaar Takalar's SME customers. The study was conducted at the PNM Mekaar office in the Takalar Area over a two-month period. The population consisted of all 50 employees of PT PNM Mekaar Takalar, and the research employed a saturated sampling method, where the sample size equaled the population, resulting in a total sample of 50 employees. The findings revealed that financial risk had no significant impact on the volume of business capital funding, likely due to insufficient risk identification and categorization in lending processes. In contrast, business scale had a significant effect on capital funding, as respondents prioritized sales volume. However, financial feasibility did not significantly influence the capital funding volume, as respondents tended to prioritize income over other factors.

Abstract

This qualitative research delves into cognitive biases and decision-making in investment practices to comprehend the intricate dynamics shaping human behavior in financial markets. The study aims to explore the influence of cognitive biases, emotional factors, and socio-cultural influences on investment decisions. Adopting thematic analysis, relevant literature on cognitive biases and decision-making in investment practices is systematically reviewed. The data analysis process involves iterative coding to identify recurring themes and patterns. Findings reveal the pervasive impact of cognitive biases such as overconfidence and confirmation bias on investment behavior, leading to suboptimal decision-making outcomes. Emotional factors like fear of missing out (FOMO) drive speculative behavior among investors, contributing to market inefficiencies. Moreover, socio-cultural factors influence risk perception and decision-making norms, shaping investment strategies across different cultural contexts. The study underscores the importance of recognizing and addressing cognitive biases in investment practices to improve decision outcomes and enhance long-term financial well-being. Behavioral interventions and technological advancements offer promising avenues for mitigating cognitive biases and enhancing decision-making efficiency. The implications for future research include deeper exploration of underlying mechanisms driving biases and cross-cultural comparisons to inform culturally sensitive interventions. This study contributes to advancing knowledge in behavioral finance and informs evidence-based practices in investment management.

Abstract

This qualitative study delves into the intricate dynamics of capital structure, firm value, and dividend policies within the realm of corporate finance. The research aims to explore the factors influencing financial decision-making processes and their implications for firm performance and shareholder wealth maximization. Adopting a systematic literature review approach, the study synthesizes existing theoretical frameworks, empirical evidence, and alternative perspectives to provide a comprehensive analysis of the chosen topic. The research methodology involves data collection through academic databases and scholarly sources, followed by thematic analysis to identify recurring themes and patterns in the literature.

Moreover, empirical evidence suggests nonlinear relationships between capital structure, firm value, and dividend policies, indicating the influence of contextual factors such as industry dynamics, regulatory environments, and market conditions. The implications drawn from this study extend to both academia and practical applications, emphasizing the need for a nuanced understanding of corporate finance dynamics to inform theory, practice, and policy in the field. By embracing interdisciplinary perspectives, methodological pluralism, and a forward-looking orientation, researchers and practitioners can contribute to the continued evolution of corporate finance theory and practice, ultimately driving innovation, efficiency, and sustainability in the corporate sector.
