Analisis Teori Keagenan, Peran Tata Kelola, Dan Peran Tata Kelola Bisnis Untuk Mengatasi Konflik Kepentingan
Purpose: The aim of this study is to analyze the application of agency theory and the role of corporate and business governance in addressing conflicts of interest, using a case study of fraud committed by insurance agent Swita Glorite Supit from Sinarmas MSIG Life.
Methodology: This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach. The research focuses on a real-life case involving Sinarmas MSIG Life, specifically examining governance practices and agent misconduct. No software was used, but the study is based on literature review, document analysis, and interpretation of agency theory principles in the context of a fraud case.
Result: The findings reveal that information asymmetry and weak internal control systems are the root causes of agency-related issues. The analysis also highlights the importance of implementing good governance principles including transparency, accountability, and risk management to protect policyholders and uphold the reputation of the insurance industry
Conclusions: The case of Swita Glorite Supit reflects a systemic failure in corporate and agency governance. The misconduct stems not only from individual actions but also from weak oversight, ineffective code of ethics implementation, and the lack of a strong ethical culture to prevent and detect fraud.
Limitations: A limitation of the study is that it focuses on a single case and does not include quantitative data or perspectives from a broader range of agents or companies, which may affect generalizability.
Contribution: This study contributes to the understanding of agency theory application in the financial services sector, particularly in insurance. It is useful for corporate governance practitioners, policymakers, insurance companies, and researchers in the fields of business ethics, governance, and risk management.

SintaAnalysis of work life balance, job satisfaction and its effect on the performance of employees of the General Bureau of the Regional Secretariat of the Riau Islands Province
Purpose: This study analyzes the influence of work-life balance, work environment, and workload on performance through job satisfaction as a mediating variable on employees of the General Bureau of the Regional Secretariat of the Riau Islands Province.
Methodology/approach: A quantitative method was used with SEM-PLS analysis on data collected from 120 employees of the General Bureau, Riau Islands Provincial Secretariat.
Results: Using primary data from 120 employees, this study found that work-life balance and workload have a significant influence on performance through the results of the path coefficient, meaning that the job satisfaction variable can mediate the influence of endogenous variables of work-life balance and workload on the performance variable. This can be explained by the fact that with the mediation of job satisfaction, when there is an increase in work-life balance and workload, employee performance will increase.
Conclusions: Improving job satisfaction enhances performance, especially when managing workload and work-life balance.
Limitations: The study is limited to one public institution and excludes factors such as leadership and compensation.
Contribution: This study highlights the importance of job satisfaction as a mediator to improve employee performance in the public sector.
Analysis of determinants of renewable energy consumption in Indonesia
Purpose: This study aims to examine the determinants of renewable energy consumption in Indonesia, focusing on Gross Domestic Product (GDP), energy subsidies (SUB), urban population (POPs), and carbon dioxide (CO?) emissions over the period 1990–2023.
Research methodology: A quantitative descriptive approach is applied using time series data from 1990 to 2023. The analysis combines the Error Correction Model (ECM) to capture short-term dynamics and long-term equilibrium, and Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) regression for estimating the relationships between variables.
Results: In the short term, GDP and urban population exhibit a positive but insignificant effect on renewable energy consumption, while energy subsidies have a negative and significant effect. CO? emissions show a positive and significant effect. In the long term, GDP and CO? emissions maintain a positive and significant impact, energy subsidies remain negative and significant, and urban population continues to have a positive but insignificant influence. Simultaneous testing confirms that GDP, energy subsidies, urban population, and CO? emissions collectively influence renewable energy consumption in Indonesia.
Conclusions: The findings highlight the importance of economic growth and environmental pressures in driving renewable energy use, while energy subsidies negatively impact its adoption.
Limitations: The study is limited to four independent variables and does not account for technological innovation or policy changes beyond energy subsidies.
Contribution: This research provides empirical evidence for policymakers to design strategies promoting renewable energy consumption, emphasizing economic growth, emission control, and subsidy reform.
Sustainable waste management strategy based on circular economy in Pangkalpinang City
Purpose: This study aimed to formulate a circular economy-based waste management strategy to support the achievement of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in Pangkalpinang City.
Research Methodology: This study employs a descriptive quantitative approach using the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). It involves 15 stakeholders from the Pentahelix sectors (government, business actors, academics, community organizations, and media) to evaluate five criteria—government policy, infrastructure, community participation, recycling technology, and economic impact— and five strategic alternatives: enhancing recycling facilities, environmental education, strengthening regulations, implementing automation technology, and providing economic incentives.
Results: The analysis revealed that strengthening government regulations (weight: 1.469) is the top strategic priority, highlighting the central role of policy and enforcement in sustainable waste management. This is followed by enhancing recycling facilities (0.901) and implementing automation technologies (0.899). Among the criteria, community participation was the most influential factor (27.01%), underscoring the importance of public involvement in sorting, recycling, and reducing waste generation.
Conclusions: An integrated circular economy-based strategy emphasizing regulatory reinforcement and active community participation is essential for sustainable urban waste management in Pangkalpinang.
Limitations: This study is limited to stakeholders within Pangkalpinang City and excludes broader regional perspectives and behavioral aspects of the wider population.
Contribution: This study provides a practical framework for policymakers and stakeholders to design multisectoral waste management strategies that balance environmental, social, and economic dimensions, thereby aligning local practices with SDGs.
