Does ESG Performance Affect Financial Performance? Evidence from Indonesia

2023-02-09T11:57:36+07:00

Economic, social, and environmental issues are currently becoming major worldwide issues. Geopolitical, social, and economic power streams have focused on ESG goals, encouraging companies, investors, and governments to apply them to every aspect of business. The current constraint is that Indonesian business stakeholders are still typically focused on short-term profits, which are intended to transform towards long-term sustainability. This study examines the effect of ESG performance on corporate financial performance. The primary analysis tool in this study uses panel data regression analysis with the Random Effect Regression Model. The sample was selected from 23 companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange, with an observation period of 2018–2020. The results of this study indicate that the performance of ESG and its sub-dimensions has a positive effect on the financial performance of accounting-based companies as measured using ROA. However, on a market-based proxy with Tobin's Q, ESG performance and its sub-dimensions have not been able to influence the corporate financial performance. Some important reasons companies are involved in environmental, social, and governance activities are to create competitive advantage, reduce company risk, improve market performance, and enhance the company's sustainable development capabilities.

Indonesia's Economic Impact of the Carbon Tax

2023-02-10T09:34:17+07:00

What is the impact of the adoption of the carbon tax on climate change, carbon dioxide emissions, and other impacts on the Indonesian economy? is the research question raised in this paper. This study is crucial because although the Indonesian economy hasn't fully recovered, the government has announced plans to impose additional taxes that will burden businesses and industries and may lead to an increase in unemployment as a result of layoffs. This study was inspired by a number of studies on climate change and carbon dioxide emissions that show that, by 2050, the world will become hotter and more people would die from breathing poor air as a result of rising carbon dioxide emissions. The author tries to determine what effect a carbon price might have on Indonesia's economy. Data on the adoption of carbon taxes in 15 countries that have already done so was gathered by the authors between 1990 and 2019. This study adopted a descriptive qualitative methodology. The implementation of carbon taxes in several countries such as Finland and Sweden has proven successful in reducing carbon emissions and does not have a negative impact on their country's economy.

A Study of the Impact of PSAK 71 Implementation on Financial Performance and Capital Adequacy Ratio

2023-02-13T09:59:08+07:00

This study intends to compare bank financial performance in terms of net income before and after applying PSAK 71 to CKPN in terms of bank credit, capital, and financial performance. This research employs quantitative data in the form of published bank financial statements and the bank's financial ratios to analyze the impact of the new PSAK 71. The results of this study show that PSAK 71 adoption has a favorable effect and that it can provide useful data for financial report users to estimate total, period, and future cash flow uncertainty. However, there are some adverse effects, such as a rise in CKPN and a decrease in KPPM (or Capital Adequacy Ratio). The CKPN will rise by up to 50%, while the KPPM will fall by 5%. Because the decrease of CKPN could have an impact on the Bank performance and there will be more risk to be managed by the Bank, it is crucial for the Bank to make solid preparations from the strategic viewpoint, technical, and operational side.
