The Awareness of the Indonesian Market Toward the Corporate Social Responsibility of a Company

The existence of CSR institutions and associations coherent with several laws and regulations concerning CSR applied in Indonesia indicates that Indonesia gives more attention to the importance of CSR. The increasing number of parties who appreciate CSR performance also motivates companies to commit to implementing CSR. However, the next question is related to whether the public (market) responds to the efforts of the government, companies, and all parties involved in the progress of CSR in Indonesia or not. Specifically, the question lingers around whether the Indonesian market is aware of the importance of CSR or not. Departing from the two questions, the study aims to determine the response of the Indonesian market after the CSR-related information has been identified since market responses will show awareness of the importance of CSR. The data that have been used in the study are the secondary ones and include the stock prices that come from 5 days before and 5 days after the announcement of the Indonesia Sustainability Reporting Award (ISRA) 2017 and 2018. The hypothesis test results show no differences in stock prices between 5 days before and 5 days after the announcement of the ISRA award. On the contrary, the hypothesis test results show that the Indonesian market has not responded to CSR information of a company. The reason is that the Indonesian market does not consider CSR information relevant for investment decision making.

Disclosure on Sustainability Reports, Foreign Board, Foreign Ownership, Indonesia Sustainability Reporting Awards and Firm Value

This study aims to investigate how disclosure on sustainability reports, foreign on boards, and foreign ownership affect firm value.

This study uses 37 firms as a sample with 159 observations and using panel data analysis. Subgroup analysis is used to test the existence or absence of homologizer moderation.

Additional testing is performed by splitting types of companies that have become state-owned enterprises (SOEs) and non-SOE, as well as kinds of services & finance and Manufacturing & others. We found that foreign commissioners in the service and finance sectors category have a positive effect on firm value, and foreign ownership in State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs) has a positive influence on firm value.

This study examines 108 public comphanies that granted ISRA (Indonesia Sustainability Reporting Award) from 2013-2017 for firm’s performance, GCG index, and sustainability index. The result shows that information for capital providers can be used for investment and credit decision. This finding indicates company faces agency conflict, so company’s disclosure dedicates for primary users, namely creditor and shareholder. This finding also indicate that earnings more informative than good corporate governance and sustainability reporting. It may show the concentrated ownership in Indonesia encourages management to behave less aggressive.

A comparative study of anti-corruption practice disclosure among Malaysian and Indonesian Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) best practice companies

Corruption is a serious concern all over the world. Due to the limited amount of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) research on specific issues such as bribery, this paper aims to determine the extent of anti-corruption information disclosure in annual reports that demonstrate organizational commitment towards combatting corruption. The index consists of 40 items developed from an analysis of past literature and several organizations' published reports. The input data was based on observation of several organizations' annual reports, CSR and sustainability reports, past literature and Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) reporting indicators. The sample consists of 24 companies that participated in the ACCA Malaysia Sustainability Reporting Awards (MaSRA) and 34 Indonesian companies that participated in the Indonesia Sustainability Reporting Award (ISRA). The disclosure of anti-corruption practices (ACP) is still in its infancy in both countries. This study shows that the disclosure of anti-corruption codes of conduct and whistle-blowing practices was the most reported item. Interestingly, Indonesian companies disclosed higher amounts of ACP information compared to Malaysian companies. This is possibly because there is a higher level of coercive pressure to disclose ACP information in Indonesia compared to Malaysia. Further, there are several challenges to curbing corruption in Malaysia which potentially contribute to the low disclosure level of ACP information. This research contributes to CSR studies with a focus on anti-corruption practice, particularly in emerging economies. Some implications to improve the level of anti-corruption disclosure are also presented in the paper.
