The Indonesian real estate market has shown promising development in recent years, attracting investors seeking lucrative opportunities. This research aims to increase the success rate of real estate investments in Indonesia by examining the connection between macroeconomic factors and consumer behavior. This study employs vector autoregression (VAR) models to investigate the influence of macroeconomic data on the Indonesian house price index (HPI). We intend to determine the primary determinants of the HPI by analyzing various macroeconomic indicators, including GDP growth, CPI, crude oil, interest rates, and the unemployment rate. In addition, the research investigates the role of consumer behavior in Indonesian real estate searches. Real estate developers and investors can gain valuable insight into the effect of consumer preferences, motivations, and decision-making processes on demand functions by understanding consumer preferences, incentives, and decision-making processes. A comprehensive analysis of historical data and econometric modeling techniques are employed to accomplish research objectives. The research is conducted using pertinent macroeconomic indicators, real estate market data, and consumer surveys.

This article analyzes the impact of macroeconomic and bank-specific factors affecting the profitability of Vietnam banks, which is an emerging economy with the banking industry considered to be young but plays a very important role for the development of the economy. The study data was collected during the period of 2013-2018. The Generalized Method of Moment (GMM) is used to estimate the study model to ensure that the results obtained are of high confidence. The study results show that the bank profitability was positively affected by macroeconomic (such as economic growth and inflation) and bank-specific factors (such as bank capital, bank size, and liquidity risk), which is an interesting finding in Vietnam. The results of this study are important for bank managers and researchers.
