How Does ROGIC Affect Financial Performance through Intellectual Capital of Modern Sharia Banking registered with the OJK?
Purpose: This study examines the effect of the Intellectual Capital Growth Rate (ROGIC) on the financial performance of Islamic banks in Indonesia, with Intellectual Capital (IC) as a mediating variable.
Design/Methodology/Approach: Using a quantitative approach and path analysis, data from seven Islamic banks registered with the OJK for the 2018–2023 period were analyzed to measure the direct and indirect effects of ROGIC on Return on Assets (ROA).
Findings: The results showed that ROGIC did not significantly affect ICs in most banks, and its immediate impact was limited. However, in banks such as KB Bukopin Syariah and BTPN Syariah, ROGIC has a significant indirect effect on financial performance through IC. These findings emphasize the importance of effective IC management in improving financial performance.
Research limitations/implications: The limitations of the study include a limited sample, so further research with a larger sample and additional variables is recommended.
Practical implications: The practical implication is the need for IC optimization by Islamic bank management. This research contributes to the understanding of the relationship between intellectual capital growth and financial performance in the context of Islamic banking.

The Impact of CSR and Profitability on Firm Value: Evidence From IDX-Listed Mining Companies (2020-2023)
Purpose: This study aims to analyze the effect of CSR and profitability on firm value in the mining sub-sector listed on the IDX for the period 2020-2023.
Design/methodology/approach: The research method used a quantitative approach with multiple linear regression analysis on a sample of 25 companies. Firm value as the dependent variable was measured using PBV, while the independent variables included CSR, which was measured using the CSR Disclosure Index in accordance with the 2021 GRI Standards, and profitability, which was measured using ROA.
Findings: The findings explain that CSR does not have a significant impact on company value, profitability has a negative and significant impact on company value, and company size as a control variable also has a negative impact on company value.
Research limitations/implications: The limitations of this study are that it only covers companies operating in the mining sector listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) and only uses two independent variables and one control variable, namely CSR, profitability, and company size.
Practical implications: This study shows that these two factors do not always have a positive impact. These results highlight the importance of market perceptions of sustainability and corporate governance in promoting sustainable economic development
Originality/value: This study confirms that economic growth and development in Indonesia's mining sector is not only determined by corporate profits and size, but also by market perceptions of sustainability and corporate governance. Therefore, concrete incentives are needed for companies to implement CSR, investment assessments that consider sustainability aspects, and policies that promote efficiency and corporate governance in large companies.

Purpose: Entrepreneurial leadership is important in fostering innovation and long-term success. This study explores the challenges South African Small, Medium, and Micro Enterprises (SMME) face in adopting entrepreneurial leadership styles; these challenges are particularly pronounced in the South African context due to economic volatility, limited access to capital, and a lack of formal business education among entrepreneurs.

Determinants of Green Financing Implementation
Purpose : The severity of climate change and environmental degradation continuing to worsen, the implementation of sustainable development principles in a variety of industries, including Islamic banking, is becoming increasingly important. Islamic banks, which have values that support sustainability, have a strategic role to play in supporting green finance, which refers to the financing of projects that have a positive impact on the environment, such as renewable energy and waste management. Green finance is something that Islamic banks have a strategic role to play in supporting sustainable practices. To be more specific, the purpose of this study is to investigate the influence that green policies, green customers, green operations, and green products have on green financing in Islamic financial institutions. There are a number of factors that fall under this category, including banking products that support sustainability, green operational management, the preferences of customers who are becoming increasingly environmentally conscious, and the policies and regulations that are implemented by banks.
Design/methodology/approach : The application of quantitative methods is the primary focus of this study, which is primarily concerned with the analysis of the customers of the Bank Jatim Syariah Kediri Branch. A sample size of seventy-five individuals was utilised for the purpose of data collection. This was accomplished through the utilisation of research instruments and primary data that was obtained directly from the source. Among the methods that are associated with data analysis is the technique known as multiple linear regression analysis.
Finding : The green products, green operations, and green policies significantly support green financing, whereas, green customers have no significant effect on green financing. Therefore, banks are advised to continue developing green products, optimising green operations through digital technology, strengthening green policies with clear targets, and engaging customers through education and sustainable products.

Maintaining Liquidity to Improve the Performance of Small Businesses
Purpose: Aimed at supporting SMME growth, informing policymakers about regulatory improvements, and stimulating economic growth to benefit the population living below the poverty line in South Africa, this research involved participants from SMMEs in the Mangaung region.
Design/methodology/approach: An exploratory qualitative study was conducted, utilizing interviews and thematic analysis methods.
Findings: The research findings indicated that a majority of participants lacked effective financial management practices, primarily due to an inadequate understanding of the benefits associated with financial management in the context of SMMEs.
Research limitations/implications: everal obstacles were identified, including an unstable income cycle influenced by external factors affecting the organization, which leads to substantial deviations from planned financial strategies. Furthermore, time constraints arising from operational demands also hinder the effective management of financial resources. The improper application of financial management principles resulted in a general lack of estimating costs, profits, and financial planning.
Practical implications: However, SMMEs that properly implemented these principles experienced prolonged existence due to higher revenue, which has led to growth and sustainability, confirming the benefits of financial management in micro-enterprises.
