We are very grateful to God Almighty for his grace that the 10th Indonesian Finance Association (IFA) International Conference was held successfully on October 9-10, 2024. The 10th IFA International Conference was held virtually, supported by our generous host, the Indonesian Stock Exchange (IDX).
The theme of this conference is “Sustainable Finance and It’s Roles in Shaping Emerging Capital Markets”. Sustainable finance has become a vital catalyst in transforming emerging capital markets by integrating environmental, social, and governance (ESG) considerations into financial systems. As these markets evolve, sustainable finance plays a crucial role in enhancing transparency, attracting responsible investment, and promoting long-term economic resilience. This conference explores how sustainable finance frameworks, policies, and innovations are shaping the future of emerging capital markets and supporting global sustainability goals. We hope our conference can uncover some recent issue and challenges in sustainable finance and capital markets. Nevertheless, most importantly, we will also foresee what the future holds for financial markets.
This event will not be a success without the close collaboration between the Indonesian Finance Association and the Self-Regulatory Organization of Indonesia’s Capital Market as the main sponsor.
Finally, we would like to thank all participants and presenters who have been supporting the Indonesian Finance Association conference. We have a total of 74 submitted papers from 9 countries: Australia, Cyprus, Egypt, Indonesia, India, Macau, Thailand, Taiwan, and United Kingdom. After a process of double-blind review, we hand-picked 65 high-quality articles to be presented at the conference. From these 65 articles, there were 17 articles, from four countries, have agreed to include their full paper in the proceedings.
We sincerely hope that these proceedings will benefit all the participants and readers. We welcome any suggestions and constructive feedback to improve the next IFA conference and proceedings, and we look forward to seeing you again.
