In the inaugural event, Prof. Harjum Muharam delivered an inaugural speech entitled “Integrasi Pasar Modal Dunia, Efisiensi Pembiayaan Perusahaan Dan Negara, Serta Kesejahteraan Investor.” He chose the title because the capital market has an important role in economic development and the business cycle in an economy. The Indonesian Capital Market is important for companies, governments, and investors. Although it has been integrated with the global capital market, the level of integration is still weak. At the end of his speech, Prof. Harjum Muharam explained the factors that affect the credibility of the Capital Market in Indonesia. “The credibility of the capital market in Indonesia is influenced by various factors, including the legal and regulatory framework, financial development, property rights protection, market integration, and political stability. Efforts to strengthen these factors are critical to enhance market credibility, attract investment, and drive economic growth. Reforms and continuous improvements to market infrastructure, investor protection, and regulatory enforcement are needed to further enhance the credibility of Indonesia’s capital market”.

M Rifqy Roosdhani became the 340th Doctor of Economics Program graduate at FEB Undip.

June 16, 2023 No Comments

Semarang, June 12th, 2023. The Doctor of Economics Program at the Faculty of Economics and Business, Universitas Diponegoro (PDIE FEB UNDIP) conducted a doctoral promotion examination on behalf of M Rifqy Roosdhani with the theme “Building Marketing Performance with the Quality of Referral Marketing Communication in Social Commerce.” Promovendus, in his dissertation, focuses on developing a new conceptual model that explains how to improve marketing performance using relevant theories, namely, the Service-Dominant Logic theory and communication theory used to explain and solve identified problems. In addressing the research gap, this study proposes a new conceptual model with a mediating variable called Referral Marketing Communication Quality. This conceptual model can explain the influence of Social Commerce Capability on marketing performance. This study involved 240 food and beverage MSME businesses in Surakarta (Solo), Semarang City, Semarang Regency, Kudus Regency, and Jepara Regency using the SPSS program and the AMOS version 24 structural equation model in the data analysis process to test the hypotheses in this study. The results of the hypotheses proposed in this study show the importance of variables such as Social Commerce Capability, Referral Marketing Communication Quality, Market Penetration, and Brand Exposure in driving marketing performance. The Referral Marketing Communication Quality variable proposed in this study is convincingly proven as a mediating variable that plays an important role in filling the research gap by clarifying the relationship between Social Commerce Capability and marketing performance. This research model is based on relevant marketing concepts and can contribute theoretically and managerially.     The Examination Committee consists of Prof. Anis Chariri, S.E., M.Com., Ph.D., Ak, CA, CfrA (Chairman of the Examination), Prof. Dr. Dra. Naili Farida, M.Si. (Secretary of the Examination, Supervisor), Prof. Dr. Suliyanto, SE., M.M. (External Examiner), I Made Sukresna, S.E., M.Si., Ph.D. (Examiner), Dr. Harry Soesanto, M.Kes. (Examiner) and Dr. Farida Indriani, S.E., M.M. (examiner, Co- Supervisor). The examination session lasted for two hours, and in the end, the promovendus passed the examination and was declared entitled to hold a Doctoral degree by the Committee. Hopefully, this research can make a meaningful contribution to improving the quality of marketing in social commerce and encourage business innovation and growth in an increasingly digitally connected era.

May 15, 2023 No Comments

Wednesday, February 22, 2023, the Faculty of Economics and Business, Diponegoro University (FEB Undip), in collaboration with Pipamas Energy, held a seminar titled Pipamas Energy Talk “Managing Fuel Subsidies in Net Importer Countries.” This seminar was held in order to provide information about energy management and answer related facts and myths about energy in Indonesia. The event was hosted by moderator Putri Ayuningtyas and attended by several speakers, namely Tito Rivanto Marsono (Pertamina Sales Area Manager Retail Semarang), Saleh Abdurrahman (Member of the BPH Migas Committee), and Prof. Dr. F.X. Sugiyanto, M.S. (Professor of Economics, FEB UNDIP). “Yesterday’s increase in fuel subsidies was indeed high and became a concern for many people, but if we read the data, it turns out that most rich people are enjoying the subsidies. This makes the theme of the talk show exciting this time, and I hope the knowledge gained will be useful, said Firmansyah, S.E., M.Sc., Ph.D., as Vice Dean for Academic and Student Affairs in a welcoming speech before the main talk show event. The talk show program began with a presentation of material by Saleh Abdurrahman, a member of the BPH Migas Committee. “One of the myths in society is that Indonesia is rich in oil. Indonesia’s oil and gas reserves can only last for the next ten years.” He touched on many myths and facts regarding oil and gas and regulations related to fuel subsidies in Indonesia. The second material was delivered by Tito Rivanto Marsono, who focused on discussing the fuel subsidy program at the operational level and the development of one fuel price for all regions in Indonesia. “There are already many regulations governing subsidized fuel, both for certain fuels, special assignment fuel types. By the mandate in BPH Migas regulation No. 6 of 2013, we (Pertamina) are asked to distribute fuel in a precise, volume, and timely manner, as well as system reform in real-time fuel distribution.” The last speaker, Prof. Dr. F.X. Sugiyanto MS, one of the FEB UNDIP Professors of Economics, revealed that “Subsidy reallocation is much more important, where it is not only a matter of accuracy in distributing fuel subsidies. The government should reduce one type of subsidy and increase another type.” The event continued with a question-and-answer session and games by participants who attended online and offline. The event ended with a group photo session with the speakers, lecturers, and the participants.
