Abstract

Capital markets depend on transparency to ensure fair pricing, investor protection, and market integrity, yet digitalization has expanded disclosure practices to include increasingly granular information that may identify individual investors or beneficial owners. This development creates tension between regulatory objectives of market transparency and the protection of personal data. This study examines how disclosure obligations in Indonesian capital market regulation interact with personal data protection law using a normative legal research approach based on statutory analysis and relevant literature. The findings indicate that the perceived conflict arises from the coexistence of two regulatory regimes pursuing distinct public interests: efficient markets and individual privacy. Existing legal provisions allow reconciliation by treating mandatory disclosure as lawful data processing grounded in statutory authority, provided that such disclosure remains proportionate and limited to information necessary for investor protection. The study concludes that effective governance in data-driven financial markets requires integrating transparency and privacy through calibrated disclosure practices rather than treating them as mutually exclusive objectives.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of local tax revenue on capital expenditure allocation with population size as a moderating variable in Samarinda City. This research is a descriptive quantitative study using secondary data in the form of time series data from 2011 to 2024. The data used includes local tax revenue, capital expenditure realization, and population data of Samarinda City. The analytical methods employed are descriptive statistical analysis, simple linear regression analysis, and moderated regression analysis (MRA). The results show that local taxes have a positive and significant effect on capital expenditure. Furthermore, population size is able to moderate the relationship between local taxes and capital expenditure. These findings indicate that increased local tax revenue increases the regional government's fiscal capacity to allocate capital expenditure, while population growth strengthens the need for infrastructure and public service financing.

Abstract

Access by KAI is the official digital application of PT Kereta Api Indonesia (Persero) that facilitates the public in booking train tickets. However, users have reported several complaints regarding the performance of certain features. This study aims to evaluate user satisfaction of the Access by KAI application using the End User Computing Satisfaction (EUCS) approach analyzed through the Importance Performance Analysis (IPA) method. The five EUCS variables used are: content, accuracy, format, ease of use, and timeliness. This research employed a quantitative method by distributing questionnaires to 239 respondents, supported by qualitative data from interviews with 15 selected respondents and analysis of user comments on the Google Play Store. The findings reveal that there are seven application features located in Quadrant I of IPA, meaning they are considered important but have low performance. These features include: post-payment user purchase data (X2.3), train schedule information (X2.4), font display (X3.4), bank payment (X4.2), ticket rescheduling (X4.7), ticket booking process (X5.2), and digital wallet payment (X5.4). Interview results and Play Store reviews further support these findings. The study recommends that PT KAI prioritize improvements to these features to enhance user satisfaction.

Abstract

This study aims to examine and analyze the influence of Government Governance, Public Information Disclosure, and the Regional Financial Information System (SIKD) on the Performance of Local Government Agencies in Paser Regency, both partially and simultaneously. The background of this research is grounded in the realization of Paser Regency's Own-Source Revenue (PAD) in the 2025 fiscal year, which reached only 79.36% of the established target, as well as the inconsistency of findings in previous studies regarding the variables that affect local government performance. This research is theoretically grounded in stewardship theory, which conceptualizes the government as a steward entrusted with managing public resources in the best interest of the community as the principal. This study employs a quantitative approach through a survey method using questionnaire distribution. The study population consisted of all employees of local government agencies in Paser Regency, with a sample of 151 respondents selected through purposive sampling from the Regional Financial and Asset Management Agency (BKAD) and the Regional Revenue Agency (Bapenda) of Paser Regency. The research instrument employed a four-point Likert scale. Data analysis was conducted using the Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) method via SmartPLS 4. Validity was assessed through convergent validity (outer loadings > 0.7 and AVE > 0.5) and discriminant validity (HTMT < 0.85), while reliability was evaluated using Cronbach's Alpha and composite reliability. The findings indicate that: (1) Government Governance has a positive and significant effect on the Performance of Local Government Agencies in Paser Regency; (2) Public Information Disclosure has a positive and significant effect on the Performance of Local Government Agencies in Paser Regency; (3) the Regional Financial Information System has a positive and significant effect on the Performance of Local Government Agencies in Paser Regency; and (4) Government Governance, Public Information Disclosure, and the Regional Financial Information System simultaneously have a positive and significant effect on the Performance of Local Government Agencies in Paser Regency. These findings imply that improving the performance of local government agencies in Paser Regency requires the simultaneous strengthening of governance accountability, public information transparency, and the quality of the regional financial information system.

Abstract

Fiscal constraints drive local governments to optimize Regional Government Assets (BMD) through lease, borrow-to-use, and utilization cooperation mechanisms to enhance Regional Original Revenue (PAD); however, this practice also potentially increases the risk of non-compliance with the asset management regulatory framework. This article aims to synthesize academic literature and regulatory documents to analyze the effectiveness of these three utilization mechanisms, measure their contribution to PAD, and map compliance risks alongside public sector accounting implications. This study employs a critical narrative review method with a systematic thematic synthesis approach. Reference tracing was conducted through parallel and nested searches across accredited university repositories, primary regulations (Minister of Home Affairs Regulation No. 47 of 2021, Government Regulation No. 27 of 2014 as amended by No. 28 of 2020), accrual-based Government Accounting Standards, and Audit Reports issued by the Supreme Audit Agency (BPK). The synthesis reveals that the lease mechanism provides a stable contribution to PAD with moderate control complexity, borrow-to-use supports public service efficiency without direct fiscal impact, while utilization cooperation offers high economic value potential but entails compliance risks and complex contractual risk allocation. Audit findings consistently identify critical gaps in the absence of written approvals, weak physical-administrative reconciliation, non-market-based tariff settings, and partial audit trail documentation. Key accounting challenges encompass the consistency of accrual-based revenue recognition and the depth of disclosure in the Notes to the Financial Statements (CaLK). Optimizing PAD through BMD requires strict integration between fiscal targets, procedural compliance, and internal controls grounded in audit readiness. This article proposes a four-tier accountable governance model and provides strategic recommendations for local governments, regulators, and external auditors to strengthen transparency, prioritize economic substance over legal form, and ensure the sustainability of regional asset management.

Abstract

This study analyzes the factors that influence the effectiveness of the audit quality control system at the Audit Board of Indonesia (BPK) Representative Office in North Sumatra Province, where the quality control performance target has not been achieved in the past five years. The purpose of this study is to explain the influence of e-audit, tiered review, workload, and time pressure on the effectiveness of the system. The method used is qualitative with in-depth interviews and document analysis. The results indicate that the effectiveness of quality control is not optimal due to limited e-audit utilization, increasing workload and time pressure, and the implementation of reviews that are not substantive. However, the BPK has made improvements through the formation of a Review Support Team, audit quality checklist, cross-team reviews, and TPHP. This study expands the application of contingency theory in public sector audits and provides recommendations for the BPK to strengthen its technology-based quality system. The limitations of this study are its limited scope to one region and its descriptive nature that cannot be generalized.

Abstract

Regional Asset Management (BMD) is a crucial pillar for public accountability, yet its effectiveness is often hampered by recurring audit findings and symbolic compliance practices. This study aims to analyze the interaction between audit findings, audit follow-up actions (TLHP), and human resource (HR) competency in improving the effectiveness of the BMD management system in the Medan City Government. Using a descriptive qualitative approach assisted by NVivo 14 data analysis software , data were collected through in-depth interviews with asset practitioners, Focus Group Discussions (FGDs), and document analysis of the Audit Result Reports (LHP) of the Indonesian Supreme Audit Agency (BPK RI) for the 2020-2024 period. The results show that audit findings function as coercive institutional pressure, but the system's effectiveness substantially depends on the quality of the TLHP, which is strongly moderated by HR competency. These findings reveal a decoupling phenomenon , where low competency and high employee turnover lead to merely administrative asset improvements in pursuit of an Unqualified Opinion (WTP). Conversely, competent and stable HR acts as a transformational bridge that transforms auditor recommendations into tangible and permanent asset governance improvements. This study makes a theoretical contribution to Institutional Theory by emphasizing the role of internal absorptive capacity in determining the success of policy integration in the public sector. The study's limitation lies in its single focus on the Medan City area, so it is recommended for future research to adopt mixed - methods with a broader geographic scope to test the generalizability of the proposed variable interaction model.
