The study finds that ICT has significant and positive contribution on female labor force participation rate by Generalized Method of Moment (GMM). Control variables like GDP growth and government expenditure on education have positive and statistically significant role to enhance women empowerment. Findings of the study imply that the ICT has an impact on women empowerment and which helps in fostering the process of achieving SDGs 2030
Do Good Corporate Governance and Financing Risk Management Matter for Islamic Banks’ Performance in Indonesia?
The purpose of this study is to examine and analyze the influence of the implementation of Good Corporate Governance principles and financing risk management on the Islamic banks\u27 performance in Indonesia over the 2010-2019 period. 11 full-pledge Islamic Banks (BUS) was selected as the study sample using the purposive sampling technique and analyzed using the panel multiple regression techniques. The study found that Good Corporate Governance (GCG) and Financing to Deposit Ratio (FDR) positively influence the Islamic banks\u27 performance. In contrast, Non-Performing Financing (NPF) has a negative influence on Islamic banks\u27 performance.

Arrangements of Employer-Labor Conflicts With Game Theory: Implementation of Islamic Ethic Value
Employer-labor conflicts are sometimes eternal and challenging to solve. Game theory is one of the essential ideas in settling these conflicts. Furthermore, employer-labor interactions in conflict situations are strategic. In case the employer-labor relationship is non-cooperative, taking place only once, both parties are involved in a prisoner\u27s dilemma situation. In cooperative game theory, the players work together to win the game. Organizational management needs to consider strategic behavior, built-in cooperative games, effective and efficient collaboration between workers and employers. This study examines employer-labor conflict resolution with game theory. It incorporates Islamic ethical values using qualitative research methods. Cooperative games built on employer-labor relations derive from the brotherhood principles (ukhuwah), justice (\u27adl), and goodness (ihsan) that maximizes cooperation and prevent conflicts.JEL Classification: C70, J01, Z12How to Cite:Najma, S., Ramadhan., & Desky, H.

Risk Appetite and Investment Behavior: A Study on Indonesia Muslim Investors
It has been nine years since the Indonesia Stock Exchange established a Syariah Online Trading System (SOTS), but the number of investors using this system is still relatively small compared to the regular investor. Moreover, the number is much smaller than the potential number of sharia financial markets. This study aims to describe Muslim investors\u27 behavior in Indonesia who use the regular stock account instead of the sharia account. We surveyed by using both offline and online questionnaires, whereby the investors ask to compose the imaginary stock portfolios consisting of stocks and their weights. Using a convenience sampling method, we succeeded in interviewing 85 respondents spread across Indonesia. This study shows that the risk appetite of Indonesian Muslim investors is risk-averse, and they consider sharia aspects in their investment decision. Nonetheless, the compliance to sharia varies among them. Hence, Indonesian Muslim investors cannot be seen and treat as a homogenous group. JEL Classification: G12, G15, G33How to Cite:Firmansyah, E.

Financial Development and Economic Sustainability in ECOWAS Countries: the Role of Institutional Quality
The literature explored the relationship between financial development and economic sustainability, taking into consideration the roles played by institutional quality in the ECOWAS region. Most literature still debates on the roles of institutional quality on economic growth. The study used data from 1996-2017 for 15 emerging economies within the ECOWAS by applying two-step SYS GMM (SGMM) estimators. The study discovered that financial development has no significant and positive alliance on economic sustainability in the ECOWAS region. Besides that, regulatory quality and control of corruption, considered institutional quality variables have conflicting results with control of corruption reducing growth as well as regulatory quality increasing growth. Again, the results came out that capital formation has a positive association with growth and labor force influencing negatively on growth. Finally, due to a lack of proper corruption control systems in the region and poor financial sector development, growth cannot improve.JEL Classification: O11, O43, C23How to Cite:Li, F., Appiah, M., & Korankye, B.
