The purpose of this research is to determine if financial fraud can lessen the direct impact of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) on firm value. Proxies of the CSR are fourth-generation of the Initiative Global Reporting, religiosity, Philanthropy, Voluntary Environmental Disclosure Index, and ISO 26000. The company's value proxy is Price Book Value and Profit Margin. At the same time, the proxy of financial fraud is the F-Score model. This researcher researches mining companies engaged in Indonesia and Malaysia's oil and gas sectors. This study uses a fixed effect model based on the Hausman diagnostic test statistics. This research reveals evidence that financial fraud can reduce the impact of CSR on a firm's value.

This study emphasizes on examining the fraud hexagon theory referring to signs of fraud of financial statements, which employs all manufacturing companies listed in the IDX (Indonesia Stock Exchange). However, total selected sample are 153 of the manufacturing industry. The companies are categorized into indicated and not indicated committing fraud in the 2010-2018 period by applying the Beneish M-Score. The findings demonstrated that financial stability, the financial targets, the external pressures, the nature of industry, and CEO duality can be applied to predict fraud of financial statements. Meanwhile, personal financial needs, ineffective monitoring, quality of external auditors, auditor turnover, director turnover, and marginal costs cannot indicate occurrence of the fraud of financial statement. The findings conclude that pressure, ego, and opportunity significantly affect the financial statement fraud. Future research are suggested to consider different proxies for fraudulent financial statements; hence, the accuracy of the proxies can be compared with this study. Moreover, adding other proxies of conspiracy such as bonuses received by managers will be beneficial.

It may sound familiar to use Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) to prevent and identify fraud. However, the use of this well-known strategy in municipal administration is still uncommon. Fraud is a major concern in local government fiscal management. We acquired 151 data points from the Supervisory Apparatus of Local Government Agencies in Indonesia using a questionnaire. To test the hypothesis, this study employs regression analysis. According to the findings, the control environment, risk assessment, control activities, information and communication, and monitoring all have a significant impact on fraud prevention and detection. This work contributes empirically to the use of Enterprises Risk Management to minimize and identify fraud in Indonesian local governments.

Theory of planned behavior and whistleblowing intention

Detection of fraudulent financial stewardship in the cash flow section is an exciting thing and is rarely studied. This research empirically tests the discovery of fraudulent financial statements based on basic cash flow shenanigans. The sample of this study amounted to 470 data mining companies in Indonesia, Malaysia, China, and Japan. The analysis method used is a positive approach. The results show that all ratios used can predict fraudulent financial statements. Three ratios of cash flow shenanigans, namely change in receivable to cash flow operations, days payable outstanding, and change in inventory to cash flow operations, significantly affect the F-Score. Meanwhile, the six cash flow shenanigans ratios, namely cash flow operations to current liability, operating cash flow ratio, free cash flow, cash flow operations to total liability, days payable outstanding, and change in inventory to cash flow operations, have a significant effect on the M-Score.
