FRAUD THROUGH ONLINE BUYING AND SALES AS REVIEWED FROM THE CIVIL CODE IN INDONESIA
Innovations in information technology have accelerated the expansion of e-commerce in Indonesia while simultaneously giving rise to legal issues, particularly related to e-commerce fraud in business transactions. With an emphasis on torts and breach of contract, this study aims to investigate fraudulent behavior in online transactions from a civil law perspective. Drawing on legal frameworks including the Indonesian Criminal Code, the Consumer Protection Law, and the Electronic Information and Transactions Law, the analysis uses a normative legal approach and is supported by relevant scholarly sources. The results show that inadequate digital data verification and a lack of mutual consent and trust in online contracts are often the main causes of online fraud. These actions can violate contracts and the law, which can lead to civil liability. Furthermore, effective consumer protection is difficult due to legal differences. This study demonstrates that normative changes are crucial to align conventional civil law criteria with the reality of online transactions, emphasizing the need for improved verification methods and clearer accountability. The study also suggests establishing specific guidelines for verifying digital evidence and increasing public awareness of the law to provide justice and legal assurance in the digital economy era.

THE EFFECT OF FINANCIAL TRANSPARENCY ON POTENTIAL DISPUTES IN BUSINESS PARTNERSHIPS
Financial transparency is one of the main pillars in maintaining the sustainability of healthy and fair business partnerships. This study aims to analyze the influence of the level of financial transparency on the potential for disputes in business partnerships in Indonesia. The research method used is a qualitative approach with literature analysis from various national law and business journals. The results of the study indicate that low transparency and accountability of financial reports are the main factors that cause distrust between business partners, which leads to contractual disputes and litigation ( Az'zahra & Wahyuningsih, 2024 ; Amanda et al., 2024 ). In addition, the application of Good Corporate Governance principles through information disclosure and public accountability has been proven to reduce conflict escalation and increase legal compliance in partnership relationships ( Madina & Apriani, 2024 ; Tarigan, 2024 ). This study also found that business disputes often arise due to information imbalances between major partners and minor partners, especially in the MSME sector and public-private partnerships ( Rahayu et al., 2025 ; Wardana, 2025). Thus, increasing financial transparency not only serves as a form of administrative compliance, but also as a preventive mechanism against potential disputes that could disrupt the stability of long-term business relationships

DU PONT SYSTEM ANALYSIS IN ASSESSING COMPANY FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE FOR THE PERIOD 2019–2023
This study aims to analyze the company's financial performance using the Du Pont System approach for the 2019–2023 period. This method is used because it can provide a comprehensive overview of the relationship between profitability, asset utilization efficiency, and funding structure on Return on Equity (ROE). This study uses a quantitative descriptive approach with secondary data in the form of the company's annual financial report obtained from the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX). The analyzed variables These include Net Profit Margin (NPM), Total Asset Turnover (TATO), Equity Multiplier (EM), and ROE. The results show that the company's financial performance fluctuated throughout the study period. The increase in NPM after 2020 indicates improvements in operational efficiency and cost control, while the relatively stable TATO indicates the company's ability to optimize assets to generate sales. A moderate EM value indicates a balanced funding structure between equity and borrowed funds, thus managing financial risk. Overall, the increase in ROE in 2021–2023 was due to the synergy between operational efficiency, effective asset management, and a sound leverage policy. These results reinforce the findings of previous studies (Zahra & Febrianty, 2022; Ferawati, 2024), which confirmed that the Du Pont System is an effective analytical tool for assessing comprehensive financial performance. Therefore, this approach can be used as a basis for strategic evaluation by management and investors to improve profitability and manage the company's finances sustainably

COMPARATIVE STUDY OF DIGITAL TAX SYSTEMS IN DEVELOPING AND DEVELOPED COUNTRIES
Digital transformation has fundamentally changed the global economic landscape, creating new challenges in traditional tax systems. This study examines the comparative implementation of digital tax systems between developing and developed countries, focusing on the regulatory framework, collection mechanisms, and implementation effectiveness. Using a qualitative comparative approach, the study analyzes digital tax practices in several representative countries from both categories, including Indonesia, India, and Brazil as developing countries, and the United Kingdom, France, and Australia as developed countries. The results show that developed countries tend to have more mature digital infrastructure and integrated tax administration systems, enabling more efficient digital tax implementation. In contrast, developing countries face structural challenges such as the digital divide, limited administrative capacity, and resistance from the still-dominant informal sector. However, some developing countries are demonstrating interesting adaptive innovations, such as the use of mobile payment technology and a phased approach to digitizing tax systems. This study concludes that the success of digital tax implementation depends not only on technology adoption, but also on the readiness of the digital economy ecosystem, institutional capacity, and contextual policy design.

THE IMPACT OF NEURODIVERSITY INCLUSION ON TEAM INNOVATION IN KNOWLEDGE-BASED COMPANIES: A LONGITUDINAL STUDY OF A NEW HR PRACTICE TO ENCOURAGE CREATIVE PROBLEM SOLVING
This longitudinal study explores the impact of neurodiversity inclusion on team innovation within knowledge-based firms, focusing on human resource management (HRM) practices that enhance creative problem-solving. Neurodiversity including autism, ADHD, dyslexia, and developmental coordination disorder represents about 15–20% of the global population and provides distinctive cognitive strengths that drive organizational innovation. Using secondary data from studies and meta-analyses (2020–2024), this research examines trends in inclusion policies, their effects on team dynamics, and quantitative innovation outcomes. Results indicate that neuroinclusive HRM practices such as flexible work arrangements, sensory accommodations, mentorship programs, and bias-free recruitment significantly improve innovation. Neurodiverse teams solve problems 30% faster and generate 28% higher revenue than neurotypical teams, with positive correlations between inclusion and innovation indices (r = 0.47–0.54). The study adopts a biopsychosocial model, showing how biological, psychological, and social factors interact to foster creativity and resilience. Challenges like stigma and underrepresentation are addressed through sustainable HRM strategies based on Self-Determination Theory and Universal Design. Implications highlight the competitive advantage of cognitive diversity in technology and finance sectors. The study recommends longitudinal tracking and inclusive policy reforms to strengthen employee engagement and reduce turnover

THE IMPORTANCE OF ETHICS AND LEGAL COMPLIANCE IN BUILDING TRUST IN DIGITAL BUSINESS
The digital era has brought about a major transformation in global business models, presenting both innovative opportunities and significant ethical challenges. Technological dynamics such as artificial intelligence, big data, and e- commerce platforms are expanding economic horizons, but also pose risks of data leaks, information manipulation, and privacy violations. Amid this complexity, ethics and legal compliance serve as key pillars in building public trust in digital business entities. This paper aims to systematically examine the importance of implementing ethical principles and legal compliance in strengthening trust in digital businesses, by reviewing seven recent literatures (2020–2025). The analysis shows that companies that integrate ethical values and regulatory compliance are able to gain social legitimacy, maintain their reputation, and build long-term relationships with consumers and partners . The study's findings emphasize that trust is not the result of legal compliance alone, but rather a balance between moral values, social responsibility, and transparent digital governance.
