Bank Compliance Factors in Implementing Regulation Provisions on Bank Performance in Indonesia

This study aims to examine the effect of legal compliance on the health of commercial banks and Islamic banks in Indonesia, to the extent that compliance with the provisions and standards set by Bank Indonesia has an impact on improving bank performance. This study uses micro banking data listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) for the period 2015- 2019. The data used is panel data that is tested in the relationship between measures of bank health legal compliance with indicators of capital, asset quality, management, earnings, and market risk sensitivity (CAMELS). The results of this study indicate that compliance with earnings and compliance with market risk sensitivity has a negative effect on bank performance, while compliance with liquidity has no effect on bank performance. Furthermore, three control variables used in this study, namely capital, asset quality, and corporate governance, were able to produce results as predicted.

Legal compliance, risk and crisis management

In the current environment, it is more important than ever for event professionals to recognise and understand their legal obligations and be able to ensure compliance. While many of the associated issues are complex, a sound understanding of their implications is an essential part of the event manager’s toolkit. In fact, issues associated with legal compliance represent one of the most significant areas of risk for practitioners in the events industry.

PERTIMBANGAN HAKIM TERHADAP DISPENSASI NIKAH DI BAWAH UMUR (STUDI KASUS PENGADILAN AGAMA PARIGI)

This study examines the judge's considerations in resolving marriage dispensation cases at the Parigi Religious Court. This research includes field research with qualitative methods. Data was collected through documentation studies, interviews, and observations. Data analysis techniques used are data reduction, data presentation, data interpretation, and drawing conclusions. The background of this research is Law No. 16 of 2019 Article 7 paragraph 1 regarding the minimum age of marriage, which is 19 years for men and women, as well as paragraphs 2 & 3 regarding the granting of marriage dispensation with very urgent reasons. The description in this journal departs from the factors that form the background of the application for a marriage dispensation and how judges consider in resolving a marriage dispensation case at the Parigi Religious Court. The results showed that the background of the application for marriage dispensation at the Parigi Religious Court was due to pregnancy outside of marriage, arranged marriages, and reasons to avoid adultery. The considerations made by the judge are through the principle of expediency, the necessity to refuse harm, the interests of the child and baby in the womb, and the legal compliance of the family. From the conclusions obtained, it is recommended that the government and community organizations intensively conduct speeches and counseling about the dangers of early marriage in the community, as well as increase parental and family supervision of the association and development of children.

Company Ownership Structure, Legal Compliance and the Probability of Winning an Employment Lawsuit in China

This paper investigates empirically whether firm ownership structures contribute to varying levels of legal compliance, which ultimately influence the likelihood of winning a lawsuit. I hypothesize that private companies are more likely to lose employment lawsuits because the rule of law within the company is rarely established. Using collected 2756 employment judgments decided by district courts in Beijing between 2014 and 2018, I test this hypothesis against three other types of ownership structures in China: state-owned enterprises, wholly foreign-funded companies, and partly foreign-funded companies. The statistical result confirms that private companies are more likely to lose cases, thus supporting the proposed hypothesis. In addition, the company’s scale and the company’s life span also have a significant influence on the employment lawsuit result.

Framework for the Promotion of Accountability in the Social Economy: The Specific Case of Private Social Solidarity Institutions

Given the extreme importance of improving the accountability of Private Social Solidarity Institutions (IPSS), both for reasons of legal compliance (hard law) and for reasons of improving legitimacy and notoriety among their stakeholders (soft law), this paper aims to present a framework designed under a more comprehensive research project, for the assessment of IPSS accountability and, consequently, its improvement. This study also present results of the indicators conceived, identifying the main trends of the framework dimensions and sub-dimensions from a pilot test for the years 2018, 2019 and 2020 in Portugal. Given the results, we believe that the framework designed answers the research question: How to promote accountability (social, financial and economic) in the social economy sector, in particular: the case of the IPSS?, however, as this is an exploratory article, it incorporates the limitation that this is a pilot test with only 7 entities.

How is the State Perceived as Fair? A Literature Review of Social Identity-Based Procedural Justice in the National Context

Justice is relevant in various domains of life, including the state. The social identity-based procedural justice theories (Group Value Model and Group Engagement Model) emphasize the importance of procedural justice from the authority in signaling the group’s inclusion and respect, thus increasing individuals’ cooperation and compliance. This article aims to critically review published literature using the two models in a national context, of which there were inconsistent findings regarding the role of group identification. Three issues are underlying this inconsistency. First, both models could be applied when national identity was salient, such as legal compliance (to taxation and traffic law). Second, perceived police legitimacy is a better mediator when the national identity was not salient (e. g. cooperation in counter-terrorism and crowd policing). Third, the effect of procedural justice depends on the motivation to secure identity (which is generally higher among minority/marginalized groups). As both models are strongly bound by context, the author suggests controlling police-national identity prototypicality on studies about police procedural justice, attitude toward outgroup and relational identification with the police on studies involving intergroup conflict, and uncertainty about membership status on studies toward minority groups. Hopefully, this article could contribute references and encourage related studies in Indonesia.

Comparison of LC-ESI, DART, and ASAP for the analysis of oligomers migration from biopolymer food packaging materials in food (simulants)

Biopolymers based on polylactic acid (PLA) and starch have numerous advantages, such as coming from renewable sources or being compostable, though they can have deficiencies in mechanical properties, and for this reason, polyester resins are occasionally added to them in order to improve their properties. In this work, migration from a PLA sample and from another starch-based biopolymer to three different food simulants was studied. Attention was focused on the determination of oligomers. The analysis was first performed by ultraperformance liquid chromatography quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-Q-TOF–MS), which allowed the identification of the oligomers present in migration. Then, the samples were analyzed by two ambient desorption/ionization techniques directly coupled to mass spectrometry (ADI), direct analysis in real-time coupled to standardized voltage and pressure (DART-MS) and atmospheric pressure solids analysis probe (ASAP-MS). These methodologies were able to detect simultaneously the main oligomers migrants and their adducts in a very rapid and effective way. Nineteen different polyester oligomers, fourteen linear and five cyclic, composed of different combinations of adipic acid [AA], propylene glycol [PG], dipropylene glycol [DPG], 2,2-dibutyl-1,3-propanediol [DBPG], or isobutanol [i-BuOH] were detected in migration samples from PLA. In migration samples from starch-based biopolymer, fourteen oligomers from poly(butylene adipate co-terephthalate) polyester (PBAT) were identified, twelve cyclic and two linear. The results from ADI techniques showed that they are a very promising alternative tool to assess the safety and legal compliance of food packaging materials. Graphical abstract
