The purpose of this paper was to model, with the help of neutrosophic fuzzy numbers, the optimal financial asset portfolios, offering additional information to those investing in the capital market. The optimal neutrosophic portfolios are those categories of portfolios consisting of two or more financial assets, modeled using neutrosophic triangular numbers, that allow for the determination of financial performance indicators, respectively the neutrosophic average, the neutrosophic risk, for each financial asset, and the neutrosophic covariance as well as the determination of the portfolio return, respectively of the portfolio risk. There are two essential conditions established by rational investors on the capital market to obtain an optimal financial assets portfolio, respectively by fixing the financial return at the estimated level as well as minimizing the risk of the financial assets neutrosophic portfolio. These conditions allowed us to compute the financial assets’ share in the total value of the neutrosophic portfolios, for which the financial return reaches the level set by investors and the financial risk has the minimum value. In financial terms, the financial assets’ share answers the legitimate question of rational investors in the capital market regarding the amount of money they must invest in compliance with the optimal conditions regarding the neutrosophic return and risk.

Investment is the process of saving money and putting it somewhere in the hope that it will increase in value.  Many people are not familiar with the capital market, and many people who don't know much about it are more likely to invest in it and fall victim to fraud.  In order to reduce fraud and feel safe when investing, the Indonesian people need to learn investment knowledge.  The growth of Islamic banks has helped Islamic law develop as a part of the financial market.  Although Indonesia is currently being hit by the Covid-19 pandemic, it is undeniable that the growth of the Islamic capital market in Indonesia has increased quite significantly.  The Millennial generation is now looking for and trying to start investing. The millennial generation has the highest rate of unemployment of any generation in history. Keywords: investment knowledge, capital market, millennial generation

The investment concept, reflecting the investor's investment purpose and willingness, is a value that embodies the investor's investment personality characteristics, prompts investors to carry out investment analysis, judgment, decision-making, and guides investor behaviors. Due to different maturity of the capital market in China and Western countries, there are many differences in the regulatory level, cultural and behavioral patterns of the supervision and management departments of the capital market between Chinese and Western investment philosophy. This article analyzes the differences in investment ideas between Chinese and Western investors from the culture perspective. This thesis studies on the basis of four cultural differences: "The Golden Mean" and "Interest Maximization"; the face-culture and individualism; rule of man and rule of law; and gambler psychology and adventure spirit. Based on these four aspects of cultural differences, four different investment concepts of Chinese and Western investors are analyzed: long-term investments and short-term speculation; "Herd Effect" and independent decision; grapevines and public information; and leveraged trading and allocation of funds. This thesis adopts several cases to analyze the differences between Chinese and Western investors in financial products such as stocks, gold, and futures, and in investment behavior such as the long-term investment, short-term speculation, leveraged trading, and investment portfolios. With cultural differences between China and the West probed into, the differences between Chinese and Western investors' investment concepts are justified. It is hoped that this effort will help investors deepen the understanding of the capital markets in China and the West, enable Chinese investors to learn the Western mature investment concepts, and facilitate the regulators to manage the capital market effectively.

Basel III, regulating the solvency of banks, is to be fully implemented by 2027 while Solvency III directed at insurers is being prepared. In view of past experience, it will be closely modelled after Basel III. This raises two questions. (i) Will Basel III and Solvency III be more successful than their predecessors? (ii) Is it appropriate to continue regulating the solvency of banks and insurers in the same way? The first question is motivated by an earlier finding that Basel I and II risked inducing more rather than less risk-taking by banks, which also holds for Solvency I and II w.r.t. insurers. The methodology applied was to determine the slope of an endogenous perceived efficiency frontier (EPEF) in (μ^,σ^)-space derived from banks’ and insurers’ optimal adjustment to exogenous changes, in expected returns dμ¯ and volatility dσ¯ on the capital market. Both Basel I and II and Solvency I and II neglected the impact of these developments on banks’ and insurers’ EPEF. This neglect had the effect of steepening the EPEF, causing senior management to opt for an increased rather than reduced value of σ^, and hence a lower solvency level. This issue is resolved by Basel III (Principle 5), which requires banks to take developments in the capital market into account in the formulation of their business strategies designed to ensure solvency. In combination with increased capital requirements, this is shown to result in a reduced slope of their EPEF and hence a reduced risk exposure. However, planned Solvency III may cause the EPEF of highly capitalized insurance companies to become steeper, with a concomitant decrease in their risk-taking and an increase of their solvency level. The second question, concerning the appropriateness of the uniformity of solvency regulation directed at banks and insurers, arises because the parameters determining the slope of the respective EPEF are found to crucially differ. Therefore, the uniformity of Basel and Solvency norms creates the risk of a mistaken regulatory focus.

AbstractThe capital market is an institution that brings together those who need funds, to develop their business, and those who are excess funds, to make investments. Unlike the concept of financing in banks, the capital market uses the concept of buying and selling shares. So that it can be a solution for a company that wants to develop its business without using debt. Investors can also get profits that are higher than the profits from bank deposits. Thus, the capital market is growing in the middle of society. However, there are some activities in the capital market that are contrary to Islamic principles. Therefore, the Islamic capital market emerged. To oversee activities in the Islamic capital market, the role of the Sharia Supervisory Board is needed. The objective of this article is to find out the jurisdiction governing the Sharia Supervisory Board in the Islamic capital market in Indonesia. The methodology used is qualitative research. The data used in this study is library data. This study found that the existence of the Sharia Supervisory Board already has a legal basis based on the Indonesian Financial Services Authority Regulation. However, there are no specific laws governing the Islamic capital market. So it is necessary to make a special law that accommodates all aspects of sharia in the Islamic capital market, specifically with regard to the Sharia Supervisory Board.Keywords: Capital Market, Sharia Capital Market, Sharia Supervisory Board, Jurisdiction, Indonesia. AbstrakPasar modal adalah lembaga yang mempertemukan mereka yang membutuhkan dana, untuk mengembangkan usahanya, dan mereka yang memiliki kelebihan dana, untuk melakukan investasi. Berbeda dengan konsep pembiayaan di bank, pasar modal menggunakan konsep jual beli saham. Sehingga dapat menjadi solusi bagi perusahaan yang ingin mengembangkan usahanya tanpa menggunakan hutang. Investor juga bisa mendapatkan keuntungan yang lebih tinggi dari keuntungan dari deposito bank. Dengan demikian, pasar modal tumbuh di tengah masyarakat. Namun, ada beberapa aktivitas di pasar modal yang bertentangan dengan prinsip syariah. Oleh karena itu, pasar modal syariah muncul. Untuk mengawal aktivitas di pasar modal syariah, diperlukan peran dari Dewan Pengawas Syariah. Artikel ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui yurisdiksi yang mengatur Dewan Pengawas Syariah di pasar modal syariah di Indonesia. Metodologi yang digunakan adalah penelitian kualitatif. Data yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah data perpustakaan. Studi ini menemukan bahwa keberadaan Dewan Pengawas Syariah sudah memiliki dasar hukum berdasarkan Peraturan Otoritas Jasa Keuangan. Namun, tidak ada undang-undang khusus yang mengatur pasar modal syariah. Sehingga perlu dibuat undang-undang khusus yang mengakomodir semua aspek syariah di pasar modal syariah, khususnya yang berkaitan dengan Dewan Pengawas Syariah.Kata Kunci: Pasar Modal, Pasar Modal Syariah, Dewan Pengawas Syariah, Yurisdiksi, Indonesia

A Mutual Fund is a professionally-managed form of collective investments that pools money from many investors and invests it in stocks, bonds, short-term money market instruments, and/or other securities. Mutual Fund is a trust that pools the savings of a number of investors who share a common financial goal. This pool of money is invested in accordance with a stated objective. The joint ownership of the fund is thus “Mutual”, i.e. the fund belongs to all investors. The money thus collected is then invested in capital market instruments such as shares, debentures and other securities. The income earned through these investments and the capital appreciations realized are shared by its unit holders in proportion the number of units owned by them. Thus a Mutual Fund is the most suitable investment for the common man as it offers an opportunity to invest in a diversified, professionally managed basket of securities at a relatively low cost.
