The purpose of this research is to analyze and elaborate determinants of tax compliance in the perspective of the theory of planned behavior and stakeholder theory. This research is conducted on a population consisting of corporate taxpayers registered at the Directorate General of Taxes in the region of South Sulawesi. This research uses proportional random sampling to determine the samples. There are 560 respondents out of 1,000 exemplars of distributed questionnaires who are willing to participate. The analysis is conducted by using Partial Least Square (PLS). The result reveals that the behavior of the taxpayers has a positive and significant effect on the intention to tax compliance. The establishment of tax professional behavior to comply can encourage positive behavior of taxpayers, thus, the welfare of the society can be achieved. Subjective norm has a positive and significant effect on the intention to tax compliance. This research focuses on corporate taxpayers; hence, the researchers add social awareness based on stakeholder theory. This research depicts corporate taxpayers as entity that mingles with the society. Therefore, social awareness and cultural adaptation with the social environment through tax payment is a must.

Digital transformation in village financial management has become a strategic issue in modern governance, but research on digital transformation is still limited and not well systematic. This study aims to analyze the evolution and development of digital transformation research in village financial management through systematic bibliometric analysis from 2015 to 2024. The paper uses bibliometric analysis of 507 documents from journals in the Scopus database processed using RStudio software with the biblioshiny package. The research findings reveal gaps in theoretical development, especially in the integration of local governance frameworks with digital innovation models. The research landscape shows a growing focus on accountability mechanisms (28 articles) and transparency systems (24 articles) but lacks comprehensive studies on implementation challenges and success factors. Although local governance has emerged as a dominant research stream (89 articles), there is still less attention to critical areas such as digital literacy, cybersecurity, and change management in the rural context. The analysis identifies three future research directions: the need for a specific digital transformation framework for village-level financial systems, mechanisms for integrating traditional governance with digital innovation, and evaluation metrics for the success of digital transformation in rural settings. These findings contribute to the development of theoretical understanding and practical implementation of digital transformation in village financial management.

This study examines the impact of corporate governance on the probability of financial statement fraud and evaluates the moderating role of financial distress in this relationship. This issue remains highly relevant given the persistence of fraudulent financial practices despite evolving governance regulations. The analysis is conducted on a sample of 330 non-financial companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange from 2021 to 2022. Using purposive sampling and secondary data, the study measures financial statement fraud with the F-score, corporate governance through institutional ownership, ineffective monitoring, regulatory compliance, and financial distress using the Zmijewski model. The study applies moderated regression analysis across three models. The results from Model 1 show that corporate governance has a significant negative effect on the likelihood of financial statement fraud (β = –0.085; p < 0.05). Model 2 finds that financial distress alone has a significant positive effect (β = 0.315; p < 0.05). Model 3 confirms a significant moderation effect, where financial distress strengthens the relationship between governance and fraud (interaction β = 0.353; p < 0.05). These findings indicate that while effective governance can reduce fraudulent financial reporting, this effect is influenced by a company’s financial state. Therefore, robust governance structures are vital, particularly in times of financial hardship. Future studies should consider external institutional mechanisms to further understand these dynamics.
