This study aims to analyze the health performance factor of North Sumatra districts/cities using a Geographically Weighted Panel Regression (GWPR) model analysis in 33 districts/cities with a time series of 2012-2019. The analysis results showed that the determinants of health performance differed between districts/cities grouped into 15 groups based on influencing factors and four clusters based on the area of the development areas. The income variable has a significant positive effect on all 33 districts, the education variable has a positive effect on 19 districts, the human health resources variable has a positive effect on 12 districts, the immunization variable has a positive effect on 11 districts, the proper sanitation variable has positive on nine districts, the government spending in health sector variable has positive on five districts, and the medical facility variable has positive on one district namely Karo. Determinants in the Nias Island Area: income, government spending in the health sector, and human resources. West Coast area: income, education, and proper sanitation. East Coast Area: income, education, health, human resources, and immunization. The determinant Highland area differs between regencies/cities. To improve the performance of health development in the province, it is necessary to carry out a spatial approach based on cluster equations and influencing factors. Increased income, education, and human health resources must be prioritized in almost all district areas.","PeriodicalId":34150,"journal":{"name":"Jurnal Ekonomi Studi Pembangunan","volume":"113 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74872472","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This research also aims to demonstrate if the Environmental Kuznet Curve (EKC) hypothesis is applicable in Indonesia. This research utilized secondary data collected from 33 provinces in Indonesia between 2012 and 2021. This research used panel regression with Fixed Effect Model (FEM) as the research method. The research results indicated that the provincial minimum wages and poverty positively and significantly affected the EQI. The results also demonstrated that the EKC hypothesis holds true in Indonesia, as illustrated by the significance of the GRDP per capita and GRDP per capita squared. Meanwhile, this research showed that unemployment and income inequality did not significantly impact the environmental quality index. This study offered a new analysis on the impact of provincial minimum wage on EQI in Indonesia. Therefore, this study has contributed to the additional information to the body of knowledge. The government needs to strive for an increase in the development and use of environmentally friendly products, as well as optimization of environmental protection programs. In addition, government needs to increase the provincial minimum wage according to limits set to improve environmental quality. The limited variables and research methods used are expected that further research can complement this study.","PeriodicalId":34150,"journal":{"name":"Jurnal Ekonomi Studi Pembangunan","volume":"40 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86942913","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

JKN was predicted to be the most extensive UHC program in the world. Under JKN, the poor get free health services through the cashless method through a sub-program called Contribution Assistance Recipients (Penerima Bantuan Iuran - PBI). Unfortunately, JKN faced several failures to cover the program's expenditures within years. Within the current dynamics, was PBI, as part of JKN still effectively helping the poor? We examined the effectiveness of the PBI program by measuring differences in out-of-pocket health expenditures for the poor with similar socio-economic characteristics who used PBI and those who did not. We incorporated secondary data from National Socio-economic Survey (SUSENAS). The dataset was executed by using Propensity Score Matching (PSM) methodology. We used health expenditures and socio-economic parameters such as income, education, and gender from the 2017 and 2018 SUSENAS data. We found that in 2017, the total health expenditures of the PBI beneficiaries were lower than the non-beneficiaries. Nevertheless, by merging all two years' data, similar to 2018, we found general pattern that PBI participants' total health out-of-pocket payments were bigger than the non-participants. Health expenditures such as medicine, traditional practitioners, and others, were expenditure classifications in which PBI beneficiaries had lower expenses than non-beneficiaries in 2017. Therefore, Therefore, the UHC subsidy program for the poor in Indonesia has not only been ineffective through the years of implementation but also has not been effectively implemented for all variations of health expenditure types.","PeriodicalId":34150,"journal":{"name":"Jurnal Ekonomi Studi Pembangunan","volume":"14 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81812031","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our result confirms that appropriate capital regulations for reducing bank risk-taking are heterogeneous. Traditional capital ratios decrease bank risk-taking. However, the risk-based capital ratio shows an unexpected affirmative effect.

The data for the period 2010-2020 is used, which was obtained from the Indonesian Financial Services Authority (OJK). The results show that efficient companies emerged from the category of industry possessing comparatively higher and lower market shares. Furthermore, the panel Granger-causality test indicates a one-way direction of causality, where only the market share has an impact on the technical efficiency score. The panel regression using the Feasible Generalized Least Square (FGLS) model shows that market share has a negative impact on technical efficiency scores. Other variables, such as the age of the industry, merger, and acquisition are listed in the stock exchange and do not have a significant effect on the efficiency score. Based on the aforementioned findings, it can be inferred that the quiet-life hypothesis is applicable within the Indonesian general insurance sector.

Foreign direct investment (FDI) is expected to be an important factor contributing to mitigating that situation. However, the results of previous empirical studies on the impact of FDI on income inequality have not reached a consistent conclusion. Therefore, this study evaluated the impact of foreign direct investment on income inequality in developing economies. The study has provided evidence that the relationship is nonlinear through data from a sample of 36 developing countries between 2008 and 2020 and the Monte-Carlo algorithm according to the Bayesian approach. We document a U-shaped effect of FDI on income inequality. Besides, other factors, including trade openness and migration, obviously impact income inequality. Different results were found when FDI interacted with trade or migration, representing important channels through which inequality is affected. With these results, we suggest that policymakers in developing countries should develop appropriate policies on FDI attraction encourage trade openness and migration to reduce income inequality.","PeriodicalId":34150,"journal":{"name":"Jurnal Ekonomi Studi Pembangunan","volume":"44 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77261569","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, this study aims to analyze the determinants and impacts of exchange rate shocks. Inflation (INF), Money Supply (LJUB), Open Market Operations (OPT), Foreign Exchange Reserves (LCD), Expected Inflation (LEHU) and Interest Rates (SB) were used to analyze the determinants of Exchange Rate (NT) through Auto Regressive Distributed Lag (ARDL). The impact of NT shocks was analyzed using Vector Auto Regressive (VAR) by LEHU, Residential Property Price Index (PIHPR), Stock Transactions (LTRANS), and Banking Credit Volume (VK). The Expected Inflation variable and incorporation of ARDL-VAR are novelties in this study. In the secondary time series data for 2014M1 – 2022M9 period, the ARDL results showed that INF and LJUB had positive effect on NT in both long and short run, while OPT, LCD and SB had negative effect. LEHU had negative effect in the short run, but positive in the long run. The speed of adjustment in the model was 49.86% per month. Shock of NT had impacted VK until 15 months, PIHPR at 7 months, LTRANS at 10 months, and LEHU at 14 months. Based on these results, it can be implied that the monetary authority must maintain stability of NT, especially by INF and LJUB transmission. Next, shock's impact must also be overcome, especially on VK.

This research necessitates the development of the Seemingly Unrelated Regression model, specifically the Panel Seemingly Unrelated Regression (Panel SUR) model with a dummy variable as the slope component, due to the dynamic nature of the data and the fact that the same set of predictor variables explains the five response variables. The Panel, the Seemingly Unrelated Regression model with dummy variables, can accommodate research objectives where the SUR model can explain the influence between variables, differences in characteristics between countries can be explained by fixed effect models, and differences in the effect of population density, inflation, and unemployment rates on the human development index, GNP, exports imports and urbanization in the categories of developed and developing countries can be explained by slope dummy variables. The results showed that 98.46% of the diversity of response variables (human development index, GNP, exports, imports, and urbanization) could be explained by predictor variables (population density, inflation, and unemployment rate), while the other 1.54% was explained by other factors not included in the fixed effect SUR model. In addition, the results show that population density has a significant positive relationship with GNP, imports, and exports. However, there is a significant negative relationship between unemployment and GNP. There are large differences in the relationship between the unemployment rate and GNP in developed and developing countries, whereas in developed countries, there is a larger and negative relationship compared to developing countries.","PeriodicalId":34150,"journal":{"name":"Jurnal Ekonomi Studi Pembangunan","volume":"85 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79040429","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This empirical research intends to explore the dynamic connection between GDP, trade openness, corruption, and deforestation within the EKC framework by considering controls over agriculture and population. This article uses panel data from nine countries from 1996 to 2018. Pooled Mean Group (PMG) procedure and Dumitrescu-Hurlin (DH) causality tests were applied to examine the variables’ long-term relationships and the direction of the causality. This article also features the unit root and cointegration tests. The estimation supports the EKC hypothesis that the nexus between economic growth and deforestation forms an inverted-U curve. The turning point of the per capita GDP is USD 26785, i.e., the advanced stage of development. Other findings are that trade openness is a driver of deforestation, while control of corruption is an effective instrument to reduce the deforestation rate in the long run. Deforestation will still occur in Southeast Asia because only Brunei Darussalam has passed the turning point. However, implementing development programs while reducing the deforestation rate can be done because the bidirectional causality between GDP and deforestation is not confirmed.
