This study examines the effect of foreign boards on corporate social responsibility, exploring the issues of two-tier board systems (boards of directors and boards of commissioners). Using data for manufacturing firms listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange over the sample period of 2017–2019, the results suggest that a foreign board engages more in corporate social responsibility activities. Our key finding remains robust with respect to all foreign board measures (foreign ownership, foreign board members, foreign directors, foreign commissioners, foreign CEO, and foreign chairperson) and to alternative estimation methods, and pass a series of endogeneity checks. We established the causal effect from foreign boards to CSR, supporting institutional theory and contesting agency theory.

This is the first study examining the market power of Islamic banks in Indonesia which using quarterly data. Specifically, this paper attempts to answer a question whether, in the high-religiosity country as Indonesia, Islamic banks have greatermarket power compared to its conventional counterparts. We construct Lerner's index to measure banks market power by using data from 2009 to 2013. We found that even in a biggest Muslim country in the world, Islamic banks have lowest market power. The result suggests that central banks of Indonesia should consider an alternative methods to promote Islamic banks market power since the balance between those two types of banks may enhance country financial stability. PENDAHULUANPerkembangan bank syariah di dunia saat ini telah menarik perhatian banyak kalangan, diantaranya adalah para praktisi dan akademisi. Berpusat di wilayah Timur Tengah, Afrika Utara, dan Negara-negara Muslim lainnya, bank syariah tumbuh sebesar 15% -50% per tahun lebih tinggi dari bank konvensional (Ernst & Young, 2014). Dengan jumlah sekitar 38 juta nasabah di seluruh dunia, total asset dari industri perbankan syariah di seluruh dunia telah mencapai US$ 1,7 milyar di tahun 2013. Meskipun pangsa pasar bank syariah di dunia masih kurang dari 2% (Beck et al., 2013), dengan kinerjanya yang positif dan per-tumbuhannya yang menjanjikan dapat menjadi indikasi kemampuan bank syariah untuk dapat bersaing dengan bank konvensional di industri perbankan dunia, terutama di negara-negara yang mayoritas penduduknya adalah Muslim.Dalam rangka menyoroti perkembangan perbankan syariah, artikel ini akan menelaah lebih lanjut mengenai daya saing (market power) atau tingkat kompetitif (competitiveness) bank syariah. Weill (2011) mendefinisikan daya saing sebagai kemampuan perbankan dalam mempengaruhi harga produk dan jasa perbankan yang dibebankan kepada nasabah. Daya saing bank syariah dapat dikaitkan dengan kompetisi di dalam industri perbankan. Semakin tinggi daya saing bank secara rata-rata
This study examines the effect of corporate social responsibility (CSR) on firm performance in Indonesia. Most Indonesian companies are family-owned; therefore, it is important to consider the family ownership’s role in the relationship between CSR and firm performance. The study sample consists of 285 Indonesian listed firms for the period 2015–2019. Our results show that CSR positively affects performance. Companies that conduct more CSR activities perform better, indicating their importance. Further, the interaction between family ownership and CSR negatively affects firm performance. Therefore, family ownership weakens the positive effects of CSR. Family owners have significant disincentives for the CSR’s positive effect in improving firm performance.
