This paper analyzes if the Financial Fair Play (FFP) regulations set by UEFA have influenced the auditing fees charged to the football clubs. In addition, it explores the determinants of audit fees. We use a two-sample t test with equal variances to determine whether differences are present. After this, we carry out a panel data regression with clubs fix effect to estimate the determinants of audit fees in football clubs. Our findings reveal an increase of audit fees after the implementation of FFP regulations. On top of that, audit fees are explained by the presence of foreign investors if the audit firm is one of the Big4 and if the auditor is a woman. The regulation change has an impact on the audit fees charged by auditors for their services. However, this increase can be compensated across future years given the improving financial situation of clubs; therefore, the auditors’ risk diminishes and subsequent audit fees may be reduced. UEFA should monitor audit fees as well as the quality of the audit reports, which have become crucial to obtaining the license to participate in UEFA competitions.

The regulation change has had an impact on the audit fees charged by auditors for their services. However, this increase may be compensated over future years given the improving financial situation of clubs; therefore, the auditors’ risk diminishes and subsequent audit fees may be reduced. UEFA should monitor audit fees as well as the quality of the audit reports, which have become crucial to obtaining the license to participate in UEFA competitions.

Derasnya aliran dana asing yang masuk ke pasar modal Indonesia membuat meningkatnya nilai kapitalisasi di pasar modal. Transaksi asing terhadap suatu saham juga akan menjadi sinyal positif bagi investor dalam menilai kualitas fundamental suatu saham.

Sampel yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini sebanyak 10 perusahaan yang diambil dari daftar kelompok saham-saham yang masuk dalam Jakarta Islamic Index (JII). Data yang digunakan berupa data transaksi posisi asing dan harga penutupan saham pada periode harian selama bulan Oktober–Desember 2020. Dengan menggunakan teknik regresi data panel diperoleh kesimpulan bahwa posisi jual-beli asing memberikan pengaruh yang positif dan signifikan dalam perubahan harga saham perusahaan. Pembelian asing akan mampu memberikan efek kenaikan harga saham, demikian pula sebaliknya.   Swift flow of foreign funds into the capital market has increased the capitalization of transactionin the stock market.

This study reviews the impact of the Spanish Transparency Law (TL) 19/2013 and the Union of European Football Associations’ (UEFA) Financial Fair Play (FFP) regulations, on the transparency and accountability of Spanish professional football clubs, and examines the influence of financial performance on the transparency of Spanish football clubs. The study uses a Panel Data methodology (FGLS) to compare the international transparency index for football clubs (INFUT) with the criteria of UEFA’s FFP as a measure of the social and financial performance, respectively, on a sample of 28 Spanish professional teams of first and second division during the periods of 2015, 2016, and 2019. The study reveals that the implementation of TL 19/2013 and UEFA’s FFP has improved the transparency and accountability of clubs. On the one hand, the TL has facilitated access to financial information, and, on the other, the FFP regulations have contributed to improving the balance and financial viability of the clubs. The study also reveals that financial performance directly influences the transparency of clubs.

Foreign investment is very important for developing countries in economic development because of the low domestic investment capacity. Democracy is considered as one of the aspects that has an impact on investment, although there is still debate as to whether the impact is positive, negative, or neutral. Many other factors influence the inflow of foreign investment into a country, including the size of the economy, the level of wages, domestic investment, and the quality of human resources. Using a panel data regression analysis of provinces in Indonesia with a random effect model, we try to look at the factors that influence foreign investment inflows to Indonesia. We find that the democracy index in Indonesia's provinces does not affect foreign investment inflows

This paper mainly concentrates on examining the impact of monetary policy on commercial banks’ profit in Vietnam by using panel data regression. In our study, the data is collected from 20 commercial banks which were doing business in Vietnam’s banking market, ranging from 2007 to 2014 in annually frequency. Monetary base (MB), discount rate (DIS) and required reserve ratio (RRR) are used as proxies for monetary policy. Profit before tax (PROFIT) is used to represent commercial banks’ performance. The results show that there is a positive relationship between banks’ profits and monetary policies. Among those chosen variables representing SBV’s monetary policy, only MB has a significant positive impact on bank’s profit at the significance level of 10%. On this premise, the study recommends that MB should be one of the variables in the center of being concerned in the SBV’s policies regarding the banking performance and stability.

The complexity of audit committee experience, including the overseas experience, has an important impact on corporate governance. In this paper, we study the impact of the overseas experiences of the members of audit committee on audit fees. Our empirical analysis and results show that the audit committee overseas experience can significantly increase audit fees. Further, the positive influence of the audit committee overseas experience on audit fees is more pronounced in state-owned enterprises and regions with weak marketization. In addition, we divide the overseas experience into overseas learning experience and overseas working experience. We find that both types of experience present in the audit committee significantly increase the audit fees. Finally, we find that the audit committee overseas experience can significantly improve the quality of accounting information and play a positive role in corporate governance.
