Abstract

Performance integrity of correctional officers in Indonesia has received increasing attention amid growing demands for professionalism and transparency, as well as various reports of procedural violations. This situation underscores the need to examine internal factors influencing integrity, particularly work competence, work discipline, and the role of transformational leadership. This study aims to investigate the relationships between work competence and work discipline on the performance integrity of correctional officers in Indonesia, assess the moderating effect of transformational leadership, and identify which factors most significantly impact integrity within correctional institutions. A quantitative approach was employed through a survey of 351 active correctional officers from various institutions across Indonesia, with data analyzed using PLS-SEM version 4.0.9.9. The findings indicate that work competence has a strong and significant effect on performance integrity, whereas work discipline and transformational leadership do not have significant effects, either directly or as moderators. These results emphasize that enhancing technical and functional competencies is key to improving integrity. This study is limited to quantitative analysis and does not encompass qualitative aspects, such as organizational culture, moral values, or interpersonal dynamics. Practically and theoretically, this research contributes to human resource management in correctional institutions by providing evidence-based insights and serving as a policy reference for implementing competency-focused strategies to strengthen officer integrity. The novelty of this study lies in its emphasis on individual capability as a more influential factor on integrity than structural mechanisms such as discipline or leadership style, challenging the common assumption that administrative discipline or leadership alone can foster integrity.

Abstract

The development of financial technology (fintech) in Indonesia has increased significantly over the past two decades, expanding access to digital financial services, including payments, financing, and investment. Amid this trend, Islamic fintech has emerged as an alternative that operates in accordance with Sharia principles, such as the prohibition of riba (interest), gharar (uncertainty), and maisir (gambling). However, its implementation continues to face challenges in regulatory, operational, technological, financial, and human resource aspects. This study aims to identify the main problems facing Islamic fintech in Indonesia and to formulate development strategies from regulatory, operational, technological, financial, and human resource perspectives. This research adopts a qualitative approach with a case study design. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with informants, including industry practitioners, regulators, and academics, focus group discussions (FGDs), document analysis, and field observations. Semi-structured interviews were conducted to obtain in-depth insights. Data analysis employed thematic analysis and content analysis, with triangulation used to ensure the credibility of the findings. The results reveal several key issues, including the absence of optimal and specific regulations for Islamic fintech, low levels of digital Islamic financial literacy, limited technology-based supervision, and challenges in integrating technology with the existing Islamic financial ecosystem. Financial challenges are also prominent, particularly the risk of default in Sharia-compliant peer-to-peer (P2P) lending services and limited funding sources. The implications of this study highlight the importance of strengthening regulatory frameworks, enhancing Islamic financial literacy, utilizing big data and artificial intelligence for Sharia-compliant credit scoring, and developing integrated human resources to strengthen the inclusion and competitiveness of Islamic fintech in Indonesia.
