Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of environmental uncertainty, company size, and strategic changes on financial performance and company value in manufacturing companies in the food and beverage sub-sector listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) for the 2020-2022 period. With a quantitative approach using SEM-PLS, this study analyzed 111 data from 37 companies based on financial statements and annual reports. The results show that environmental uncertainty does not have a significant influence on financial performance or company value, either directly or through financial performance mediation. In contrast, the size of the company has a significant influence on the company's financial performance and value, reflecting the stability and attractiveness of large companies in the eyes of investors. However, strategic changes do not have a significant effect on financial performance or company value, either directly or through financial performance as a mediator. In addition, the implementation of Good Corporate Governance (GCG) also does not mediate the relationship between financial performance and company value significantly. These findings underscore the importance of company size and financial performance as key determinants of company value in the stock market, while environmental uncertainty and strategic changes require further study to understand their impact.

Abstract

This study evaluates the factors that influence the broad money of five ASEAN countries. Global economic uncertainty due to financial crises, geopolitical conflicts and pandemics has affected the region's economic stability. Central banks have a role in controlling broad money through monetary policy, but its effectiveness is affected by other factors such as GDP, interest rates and inflation. Moreover, the relationship between GDP growth, inflation, and interest rates with broad money is a major concern, as the trend of broad money growth in the 5 ASEAN countries continues to increase every year. The balance between broad money and price stability is crucial to prevent economic stress that could lead to a recession. Therefore, this study focuses on an in-depth analysis of the factors that influence money supply to help the government make decisions. The research sample consists of 100 data with five ASEAN countries, namely Vietnam, Indonesia, Thailand, Philippines and Malaysia with a time series of 2004-2023. This methodology uses a mixed approach, namely quantitative with secondary data from the World Bank & IMF with LSDV analysis. It was found that the adjusted r square value was 97%, which means that GDP, interest rates, and inflation used were able to explain the money supply of 5 ASEAN countries by 97% and 3% was influenced by other factors outside this study. GDP was found to have no significant effect while interest rates have a significant negative effect and inflation has a significant positive effect on the broad money of 5 ASEAN countries. The government is expected to better analyze the policies and actions taken, such as managing monetary policy wisely, especially in maintaining the stability of inflation and interest rates so that the money supply can be well controlled.

Abstract

Public debt policy plays an important role in the Indonesian economy, especially in supporting development financing and maintaining fiscal stability. This study analyzes the long-term impact of public debt on macroeconomic stability, considering indicators such as economic growth, inflation, fiscal balance, exchange rate, and interest rate. This study uses secondary data from Bank Indonesia (BI), Ministry of Finance (MoF), Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS), International Monetary Fund (IMF), and the Indonesian Central Bureau of Statistics (IBPS). Fund (IMF), and the World Bank to identify the relationship between debt policy and national economic stability. The results of the analysis show that although public debt can drive economic growth if used for productive investments such as infrastructure, education, and other strategic sectors, an increase in debt that is not managed properly risks causing fiscal imbalance, inflation, and dependence on foreign financing. The econometric model used in this study shows that Indonesia's economic growth tends to decline when the debt-to-GDP ratio increases significantly. In addition, fluctuations in the rupiah exchange rate and international interest rates also affect the amount of foreign debt payments. This study recommends a more transparent debt management policy that is oriented towards productive investment, diversification of financing sources to reduce exchange rate risk, and fiscal reform to increase state revenues and reduce dependence on debt. With the right strategy, public debt can function as an instrument of sustainable development without sacrificing long-term economic stability.
