A fraudulent financial statement is an issue that continues to be discussed as a form of deviation from corporate governance. Covid-19 pandemic has also demanded management to uphold the company's performance to have a good public image. Thus, the present study sets out to scrutinize the fraud pentagon theory on fraudulent financial statements. Each element is not able to be tested directly. However, there are proxies. The pressure element is proxied as a personal financial need. The opportunity is becoming the nature of industry. Each of the qualities of the external auditors as well as the change of directors propose rationalization and competence. The frequent number of CEO’s appearances in photos is a proxy of arrogance. The testing was carried out on the registered pharmaceutical companies of the Indonesian stock exchange in the span of the 2015-2019 period. The samples were selected by the means of sampling technique which is purposive. Data are scrutinized by the means of panel data regression. The analysis results show that the characteristics of the industry positively affects financial reports which are fraudulent. Changing top management positions such as directors can be an indication of financial reports which are fraudulent. The personal financial need variables, the caliber of external auditors and the quantity of CEO’s appearance in photos pose no effects on the fraudulent financial statements of the Indonesian's pharmaceutical companies.

This research was conducted in connection with the effective enactment of International Financial Accounting Standard IFRS 2020 to improve the concept of hedging accounting as well as basic measurement and classification of financial instruments. IFRS carries the concept of Expected loss backup which begins to acknowledge losses if there is a potential failure to pay even though it has not really happened, allowing the bank to form a larger loan-loss provision. The loan-loss provision is formed based on the number of failed pays in credits indicated by the ratio of Non-Performing Loans (NPLs). Fund distribution can be regulated by the Third-party Fund (TPF). The increasing number of loan-loss provisions and NPLs are feared to affect capital conditions for the bank. Therefore, the study aims to determine the partial and simultaneous influence of the loan-loss provision, Non-Performing Loans (NPLs), and third-party Fund (TPF) against the bank's capital adequacy ratio (CAR). The samples in this study are central government-owned banks, namely Bank Mandiri, Bank Negara Indonesia, Bank Rakyat Indonesia, and Bank Tabungan Negara period from 2011 to 2018. Data taken is a data time series of the quarterly financial statements published by the respective online website of the bank. The analysis used is a multiple linear regression analysis using SPSS Tools version 21 and Microsoft Excel. The results showed that a partial loan-loss provision had no significant effect on the bank's capital adequacy ratio, while the Non-Performing Loans (NPLs) and the Third-party Fund (TPF) were partially influential of the bank's capital adequacy ratio. Simultaneously the three independent variables have a significant effect on the dependent variable capital adequacy ratio (CAR).

This study employs a panel data analysis to identify the factors that significantly affect the capital adequacy ratio (CAR) of Vietnamese commercial banks for the period from 2011 to 2018. During this period, the number of banks had decreased from 41 to 31 due to mergers and acquisitions. The variables that are hypothesized to affect the capital adequacy ratio of commercial banks in Vietnam include bank size (SIZE), deposit (DEP), loan (LOA), loan loss reserves (LLR), liquidity (LIQ), return on assets (ROA), return on capital (ROE), net interest margin (NIM), non-performing loans (NPL) and leverage (LEV). The results indicate that LEV, LLR, ROE had a negative impact, ROA had a positive impact, and SIZE, DEP, LOA, LIQ, NIM, NPL did not significantly influence the CAR of Vietnamese commercial banks.

This study purposes to discover the interactive relationship between credit growth and profitability and to examine factors that affect the credit growth and profitability of people's credit funds (PCFs). After regression analysis on a set of panel data from 2013 to 2018 on 24 selected PCFs, it appeared that deposit growth and loan-to-deposit ratio had positive relationships with credit growth, and capital adequacy ratio and profitability had negative relationships with credit growth of PCFs. The age of PCFs has a positive relationship with profitability, while the credit growth, debt-to-equity ratio, non-performing loan ratio, economic growth and inflation have negative relationships with profitability of PCFs. The study found the credit growth and profitability have relationships with each other in a contrary trend. Based on the findings the study proposes policy measures that could be implemented by the managers to increase PCFs’ credit growth rate and profitability.
