Relcy Ashari, Muh. Ashary Anshar, Maryam Nurdin — Fri, 08 Aug 2025 00:00:00 +0000

This research aims to empirically test and analyze the effectiveness of the Cash Management System (CMS) and the Government Credit Card (KKP) on fraud indications, while also assessing the role of internal control systems (ICS) as a mediating variable. The research was conducted across work units of the Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS) in South Sulawesi Province using a quantitative explanatory approach. Data were collected through questionnaires administered to 96 financial management officials, including Budget User Authorities, Commitment Making Officials, Payment Order Signatories, and Expenditure Treasurers. The data were analyzed using the Partial Least Squares - Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) method.

The results indicate that the effectiveness of CMS and KKP significantly influences internal control systems. However, internal control systems do not have a significant effect on fraud indications and do not serve as a mediating variable. This means that the influence of CMS and KKP on fraud is direct, and not mediated through internal control systems. These findings suggest that the implementation of non-cash transactions such as CMS and KKP plays a direct role in reducing fraud risks, even though the current internal control systems are not yet sufficiently effective as an intervention mechanism. Therefore, strengthening and restructuring internal controls is necessary to enhance their role in fraud prevention. This study provides practical implications for government institutions in promoting financial transparency through digital payment systems and in reinforcing control over the use of public funds.

This study aims to examine and analyze the role of short video marketing, electronic word of mouth, and perceived risk in building consumer trust and purchase intention in online travel agents. This study involved 252 respondents who had seen Tiket.com service promotions on social media and were domiciled in Jakarta. The analytical methods used were validity and reliability testing using SPSS software, model feasibility testing, and hypothesis testing using AMOS 29 software. The analysis technique used was Structural Equation Modeling. These findings indicate that short video marketing and eWOM increase consumer trust, but only eWOM significantly drives purchase intention. Short video marketing does not directly influence purchases, while perceived risk does not reduce consumer trust but instead drives purchase intention because consumers are more cautious. Consumer trust itself is not significant for purchase intention, so other factors such as price and promotions remain important in purchasing decisions.

Regional Business Entities (BUMD) are business entities whose capital is wholly or largely owned by the regional government. They consist of regional public companies and regional limited liability companies. Bogor Regency has several regional business entities (BUMD) operating in various sectors, including strategic sectors requiring government regulation and commercial sectors not explicitly regulated. Microfinance Institutions (LKM) are financial institutions that provide business development and community empowerment services through loans or financing micro-scale businesses to members and the community. PT Microfinance Institution (PT LKM) Bogor is a company originating from the Bogor District Credit Union (PD. PK), by applicable regulations, and its legal form has become PT LKM Bogor. PT LKM Bogor is at Jalan KSR Dadi Kusmayadi No. 6B Ruko Citra Nusa, Cibinong, Bogor Regency. This research aims to know the development of PT LKM's performance and its problems. The method for evaluating the performance of BUMD PT LKM Bogor was carried out based on assessing the health aspects of the DIR Decree Number 30/SK/KEP/DIR dated 30 April 1997 concerning Procedures for Assessing the Health Level of Rural Banks. It was guided by the Decree of the Minister of Finance of the Republic of Indonesia No. 826/KMK.013/1992. The aspects assessed in determining the level of company health include capital, productive asset quality, management, profitability, and liquidity. Based on the results and discussion above, the conclusions of this research are as follows: PT LKM's performance from 2018-2022 shows UNHEALTHY conditions. One of the reasons why PT LKM's health value is so small is that the quality of its productive assets, which have the most significant weight in determining the company's health level, has very little value.

The high employee turnover in the manufacturing sector, especially at PT IHI Power Service Indonesia (15% per year), is a strategic challenge for organizational effectiveness and efficiency. This study aims to analyze the effect of Reward and Recognition on Intention to Stay, by considering the mediating role of Employee Engagement and Job Satisfaction. A quantitative approach was used with a survey method on 182 permanent employees. The research instrument was a Likert-scale closed questionnaire, which was analyzed using PLS-SEM. The results showed that Reward and Recognition positively and significantly affect Intention to Stay directly and indirectly through Employee Engagement and Job Satisfaction. The chain mediation model shows that reward and recognition increase employee engagement, increase job satisfaction, and strengthen the intention to stay. The practical implication is that companies must implement a fair and relevant reward system and integrate it with strategies to increase engagement and job satisfaction and reduce employee turnover intention. Theoretically, this study enriches the HRM literature through a dual mediation model based on Social Exchange Theory in the context of the manufacturing industry in Indonesia.

Elma Abnaina, Analisa Analisa , Desi Sawaluna — Fri, 08 Aug 2025 00:00:00 +0000

Performance of a banking company can be seen from its profitability level. Banking companies strive to maximize profits in carrying out their business activities. The greater the profitability, the greater the profit. Conversely, if profitability is low, the profit will also be low. The goal points referred to as the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are indicators of the implementation of sustainable business, one of which is in the economic sector. The implementation and disclosure of green banking practices and the calculation of the BOPO ratio in a company can be considered economically efficient if it can save production costs to achieve maximum profit using the panel data method (Random Effect Model/REM). The results of this study indicate that green banking has a positive and significant negative effect on profitability at banks in Indonesia.
