Abstract

Limited company as a legal entity (rechtspersoon / legal person) is a Limited Liability Company whose setting is subject to the realm of private law (Law No. 40 Year 2007 on Limited Liability Companies, but its capital from the separated state wealth is subject to the legal sphere of public law - Law Number 17 Year 2003 on State Finance). Main objective of the State-owned Enterprise as Limited Company is doing business with the profit as final target. Business carries the risk of loss, meaning it does not always generate benefit. Problems arise when the business decisions taken by the board of directors turn out to bring loss. The problems can be in the forms of the laws to regulate the State-owned Enterprise, the concept of the separation of state assets, and, the accountability setting of the Board of Directors. One of the central government's objectives is to increase the common wealth. In order to fulfill that objective, the government needs to create economic growth through government capital at State-owned Enterprise. Government equity participation to State-owned Enterprise can be performed by using government budget which is separated from national wealth on the basis of provision mechanism applied at corporate regulations. The separated national wealth will be converted as State-owned Enterprise capital when the fund has been deposited. In this case, the government is the share holder in which the shares are the national wealth. The defence of State-owned Enterprise Board of Directors when the company losses is applying good faith, duty of care, and duty of loyalty which is regulated through Law of Limited Company 95 No. 5.
