Assessing the Effectiveness of Financial Supervision in State-Owned Enterprises
type: item
description: This study examines the effectiveness of financial supervision in state owned enterprises through a systematic literature review approach. State owned enterprises play a strategic role in national economies but face complex governance challenges arising from their dual mandate of public service provision and commercial performance. The review synthesizes empirical evidence on how governance structures, audit oversight, accountability mechanisms, and institutional environments interact to influence transparency, financial discipline, and organizational sustainability. The findings indicate that board independence, professional expertise, and clear ownership functions significantly enhance financial reporting quality and operational efficiency. High audit quality, supported by structured accountability systems and effective audit committees, strengthens monitoring capacity and reduces managerial opportunism. However, supervisory effectiveness is contingent upon strong legal frameworks and independent regulatory enforcement that limit political interference and agency conflicts. The study concludes that integrated governance, rigorous audit mechanisms, and supportive institutional environments collectively determine the sustainability and accountability of state owned enterprises.

Audit Standard Convergence and Its Implications for Multinational Corporations
type: item
description: This article asks how audit standard convergence affects multinational corporations and whether formal alignment with International Standards on Auditing produces comparable audit outcomes across jurisdictions. Using a systematic literature review of peer reviewed empirical studies published from 2020 to 2024, the study synthesizes evidence on ISA adoption and implementation, expanded auditor reporting, and cross border oversight regimes. The results show that convergence improves reporting credibility and comparability mainly when it is reinforced by strong enforcement, inspection capacity, and consistent governance practices, rather than through adoption alone. The discussion integrates findings across institutional, audit production, and disclosure perspectives to explain how convergence reshapes group audit coordination, component auditor reliance, and transparency pressures in practice. Overall, the review finds that convergence can reduce information risk for globally exposed firms, but it may also reallocate compliance effort toward group level orchestration and oversight readiness, often materially. Future research should isolate mechanism specific effects and quantify multinational cost and benefit tradeoffs.

Whistleblowing Mechanisms and Audit Response: The Moderating Role of Audit Committees
type: item
description: Whistleblowing mechanisms are increasingly relied upon to surface misconduct signals that may reshape auditors’ risk assessments, yet the strength of audit response varies across firms. This article asks how whistleblowing system quality translates into observable audit responses and whether audit committees condition that relationship. Using a systematic literature review of peer-reviewed studies published between 2020 and 2024, the study consolidates evidence on reporting-channel design, audit outcomes (fees, effort, reporting, and internal control evaluations), and governance oversight. The synthesis indicates that credible and timely allegations are most consistently associated with risk repricing and targeted assurance expansion, while weak investigative follow-through dilutes report informativeness. The discussion organizes findings into an evidence pathway linking allegation credibility, investigation and remediation documentation, and audit committee information governance. Overall, engaged audit committees strengthen escalation and remediation processes, enabling more precise audit adjustments, whereas limited involvement increases uncertainty and encourages broader, conservative audit responses. Practical implications and research priorities are identified.

The Evolution of Risk-Based Supervision under Digital Financial Transformation
type: item
description: Risk-based supervision is being reshaped by digital financial transformation, raising a central question: how can supervisors preserve credible assurance when controls, decisions, and services are increasingly automated, data- driven, and outsourced? This study synthesizes evidence through a systematic literature review focused on financial supervision and audit implications. The reviewed studies show a reallocation of material risk from mainly balance- sheet vulnerabilities toward operational resilience, cyber governance, data integrity, model risk, and third-party dependencies. Findings also indicate that SupTech can strengthen risk-based supervision by enabling earlier risk sensing and targeted interventions, but only when supervisory analytics are governed with validation, explainability, and auditable decision trails. The article discusses these results through thematic synthesis linking supervisory risk taxonomies, technology-enabled supervisory cycles, and auditability of digital controls, including AI systems. Overall, the review concludes that digitally enabled supervision is constrained less by tool availability than by institutional capacity, data readiness, and assurance arrangements that align supervisors, firms, and auditors.

Transparency in Budgeting as a Key Driver of Public Trust in Financial Governance
type: item
description: Budget transparency serves as a fundamental pillar in fostering accountability and enhancing public trust in government financial management. Within the framework of modern democracy, disclosing information on the allocation, utilization, and reporting of public funds is not merely an administrative requirement but also a strategic tool to reinforce the legitimacy of government institutions. This research seeks to examine how budget transparency functions as a key factor influencing public trust in financial governance. A qualitative method is employed, using a literature review (library research) based on secondary data from books, academic journals, institutional reports, and other relevant sources. The findings reveal that transparency in budgeting strengthens public trust through three primary channels: improving accountability, curbing corruption, and promoting broader citizen participation. Nonetheless, obstacles such as limited public understanding of budget information, unequal access to data across regions, and disparities in institutional capacity present significant challenges to effective implementation. These insights highlight the need for consistent policies, stronger collaboration between government and civil society, and the integration of technology to maximize the positive effects of transparency on public trust.

Accountability, Transparency, and the Quality of Local Government Financial Reports: A Systematic Literature Review
type: item
description: The quality of local government financial reports represents an important measure of good governance. Among the key factors shaping report quality are accountability and transparency, which influence accuracy, timeliness, and compliance with accounting standards. Nonetheless, their effectiveness is often constrained by issues such as abuse of authority, weak internal controls, limited public financial literacy, and insufficient technological infrastructure. This study applies a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) to analyze how accountability and transparency affect the quality of financial reporting and to identify obstacles that hinder their implementation. The review shows consistent findings: accountability, through systematic monitoring and reporting, enhances compliance with accounting standards but is weakened by inadequate internal control mechanisms; transparency, through open disclosure and citizen participation, improves report reliability and fosters public trust, yet is challenged by low financial literacy and technological limitations. To strengthen these factors, governments are advised to improve oversight systems, promote financial literacy education, and invest in better information technology infrastructure. Future studies are encouraged to investigate context-specific strategies that can support more effective implementation of accountability and transparency in local government financial reporting.

The Impact of Global Trade Wars on Export Commodity Price Volatility in Developing Economies
type: item
description: International trade wars have emerged as a major global challenge in recent decades, particularly involving powerful economies such as the United States and China. Trade frictions through tariffs, quotas, and other non-tariff barriers disrupt global trade flows and intensify market uncertainty. For resource-dependent countries like Indonesia, these dynamics directly affect the price stability of key export commodities such as coal, oil, palm oil, nickel, and rubber. This study employs a qualitative method through literature review, relying on secondary data from journals, scholarly publications, and international institutional reports. Findings reveal that the impacts of trade wars are multifaceted and vary across commodities, often amplified by exchange rate depreciation, supply chain instability, and shifting investor sentiment. To mitigate these effects, adaptive strategies are required, including market diversification, industrial down streaming, and improvements in logistics systems. These efforts are essential for strengthening economic resilience and reducing vulnerability to global market turbulence, especially for developing economies heavily reliant on commodity exports.

description: The frequency of external audits plays a significant role in strengthening financial oversight, particularly by ensuring higher compliance with accounting standards and regulatory requirements. This study explores the relationship between external audit frequency and financial compliance, positioning audits as an essential external control mechanism for organizations. Using a qualitative approach, the research relies on secondary data drawn from books, peer-reviewed journals, scholarly articles, and official reports. The findings indicate that increasing the frequency of external audits enhances the timeliness and accuracy of financial reporting, while also fostering stronger accountability and transparency in financial practices. These results are consistent with agency theory, which highlights the importance of independent oversight in reducing conflicts of interest between management and stakeholders. Empirical evidence further supports the positive correlation between frequent audits and compliance, though the degree of effectiveness is influenced by contextual factors such as organizational size, internal control systems, and the balance between benefits and associated audit costs. Consequently, the study emphasizes the need for adaptive, risk-based audit policies to ensure long-term financial integrity and sustainable compliance.

The Interplay of Investment and Inflation in Driving Economic Growth
type: item
description: Investment and inflation are two essential macroeconomic elements influencing the trajectory of economic growth. Investment enhances productive capacity, stimulates business activity, and creates employment, while inflation may limit growth by weakening purchasing power and creating uncertainty. Their effects vary according to the policy environment and overall economic conditions. This study employs a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) based on the PRISMA protocol to examine the relationship among investment, inflation, and growth. The process includes identifying relevant scholarly works, applying quality criteria to select studies, extracting key findings, and conducting thematic analysis to uncover patterns and knowledge gaps. The results emphasize that investment accelerates growth when directed toward productive sectors under a conducive climate. Conversely, high inflation constrains both consumption and investment, whereas moderate inflation can support growth by signaling strong domestic demand. Ensuring positive outcomes requires credible monetary frameworks, effective governance, and policies that promote fair investment distribution to sustain long-term development.

The Impact of Regional Minimum Wage Policies on Formal Workers’ Welfare: A Literature Review
type: item
description: The welfare of formal workers serves as a crucial indicator for evaluating the effectiveness of employment policies in Indonesia. One key policy to safeguard this welfare is the Regional Minimum Wage (Upah Minimum Regional/UMR), designed to ensure that workers receive a living wage aligned with their basic needs. This study seeks to examine comprehensively the influence of UMR determination on formal workers’ welfare using a qualitative literature review approach. The data relied upon are secondary sources, including academic books, peer-reviewed journals, policy reports, and other relevant publications. The findings reveal that UMR has the potential to strengthen purchasing power, minimize wage exploitation, enhance productivity, and promote gender equality in wages. Nonetheless, several challenges remain, such as regional disparities, employer non-compliance, inflationary pressures, and limited parameters in defining Decent Living Needs (Kehidupan Hidup Layak/KHL), all of which hinder the optimal realization of UMR’s benefits. Hence, a reformulation of UMR policy is required, adopting a more holistic and adaptive approach to socio-economic dynamics, so that this policy can effectively serve as an instrument for sustainably improving workers’ welfare.

Tax Incentives and the Formalization of Informal MSMEs in Indonesia
type: item
description: Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) hold a vital role in Indonesia’s economy, contributing over 60% to GDP and employing 97% of the labor force. However, the majority still operate informally with restricted access to financing, legal protection, and market participation. To address this, tax incentives such as the 0.5% final income tax stipulated in Government Regulation (PP) Number 23 of 2018 are introduced to foster formalization and growth of informal MSMEs. This study explores the contribution of tax incentives in promoting formality, enhancing productivity, and uncovering barriers to implementation. Adopting a qualitative design through literature review, secondary data from academic journals, government reports, and official regulations were analyzed using content analysis and triangulation. Findings reveal that tax incentives improve liquidity, competitiveness, and employment capacity of informal MSMEs, while facilitating formalization through simplified administration. Nevertheless, limited tax knowledge, bureaucratic hurdles, and insufficient dissemination weaken policy outcomes. Integrated efforts involving training, mentoring, and infrastructure are required to optimize impact toward inclusive and sustainable economic transformation

Effectiveness of Tax Rate Reduction in Increasing National Private Investment
type: item
description: Tax rate reductions are often linked to the growth of private investment, since in theory they increase net profit after tax and create incentives for businesses to expand. This study examines the effectiveness of Indonesia’s Corporate Income Tax (CIT) reduction policy in stimulating national private investment. A qualitative descriptive approach was applied, relying on a literature review of scholarly sources and official government fiscal policy reports. The results show that while domestic investment experienced growth after the tax rate cut, the effect was not strictly linear. Investment performance was also shaped by structural elements such as legal certainty, political stability, and bureaucratic efficiency. Several studies further emphasize potential negative implications, particularly the risk of an expanding budget deficit that could weaken productive public financing. Therefore, the policy of reducing tax rates can only achieve optimal effectiveness if it is integrated with broad structural reforms aimed at creating a competitive and sustainable investment ecosystem capable of supporting long-term economic development in Indonesia.

Auditor Independence and Its Impact on Financial Reporting Quality
type: item
description: This study investigates the critical role of auditor independence in maintaining high-quality audits and ensuring the reliability of financial reporting. Employing a literature review method, the research identifies key threats to independence, such as the significance of major clients, the provision of non-audit services, extended auditor tenure, and close relationships between audit firms and clients. These factors, if not effectively controlled, can impair auditors’ objectivity, resulting in diminished audit quality and decreased trust in financial statements. The study emphasizes that compromised independence can negatively influence stakeholder confidence, as users of financial information depend on auditors’ impartial judgment and professional integrity. To mitigate these risks, the research recommends establishing independent oversight boards within large audit firms and enforcing mandatory auditor rotation policies. Implementing these strategies is expected to enhance auditor objectivity, preserve audit quality, and strengthen the credibility of financial reporting, thereby ensuring that stakeholders including investors, regulators, and the public can rely on financial statements with confidence.
