Purpose: This research aims to forecast JII returns by employing various Holt-Winters models. The models used in this research are Holt-Winters seasonality, Holt-Winters damped method, and Holt-Winters with maximum likelihood approach. Holt-Winters model is capable of recognizing and modeling trends and seasonality. Therefore, it is suitable for forecasting purposes.Methodology: Three models are employed in this research. The first one is Holt-Winters seasonality, also known as triple exponential smoothing. This model analyzes the level, trend, and seasonality components in the return series. The second model is the Holt-Winters damped method that uses smoothing parameters to lower the overstatement effect that usually occurs within Holt-Winters seasonality. The third model is Holt-Winters with Maximum Likelihood. Holt-Winters seasonality estimates parameters by choosing the least-squares. At the same time, Holt-Winters with Maximum Likelihood uses maximum likelihood to fit in the series with certain distributions and generate forecasts by determining distributions with the most likelihood.Findings: The result showed that Holt-Winters seasonality forecasts better than the other methods. The model could recognize the seasonal pattern and trend of the JII returns. It has the lowest Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE) as the parameter for forecast accuracy. Holt-Winters damped method has accuracy right below Holt-Winters seasonality. It can also map the pattern and trend of the returns. Holt-Winters with Maximum likelihood predicts less accurately. However, it can recognize the random walk inclination of the return, although it failed to generate the seasonal pattern and trend of the JII returns.Originality: This research attempted to apply Holt-Winters models to predict JII returns. Most research concerning the Islamic stock index focuses on volatility and forecast based on the level of volatility. Therefore, this research can fill in the gaps in the literature in which forecast of Islamic stock index can be conducted by modeling the seasonality and trend using Holt-Winters models.Practical implications: Investors always try to find the best generating investment return. Investors concerned with the shariah rules will always find lawful investment tools such as Islamic stocks or the Islamic stock index. Returns of the Islamic stock index can be forecast by using the Holt-Winters model. Therefore, investors might know the pattern of returns generated by investing in Islamic stocks.

Purpose: This study aims to analyze the efficiency level of Indonesian sharia insurance and Malaysian takaful with a parametric stochastic frontier approach where the input is total assets and expenses, and the output of this research is claims and premiums.Methodology: This study uses quantitative methods with secondary data in the form of shariah insurance Malaysia and Indonesia annual reports 2016-2020. The data analysis uses a regression test with the help of stochastic frontier approach (SFA)Findings: Based on the results of processing using stochastic frontier analysis (SFA), Indonesian Sharia insurance's overall production efficiency level is known to be 0.6306 or 63.06%, Malaysian takaful on average is known to be 0.6160 or 61.60 %. Partially, Indonesian sharia insurance total assets, insurance expenses, and claims positively and significantly affect the number of premiums. Takaful Malaysia's total assets of Malaysian takaful partially have an insignificant negative effect on the premium amount. Malaysia's takaful expenses and claims partially have an insignificant positive effect on the premium amount.Originality: This study analyzes the efficiency and looks at the effect of the variables of Indonesian sharia insurance and Malaysian takaful with a parametric stochastic frontier approach.Practical implications: This research shows that the management of Indonesian sharia insurance and Malaysia's takaful is still inefficient, so each government needs to regulate the operations in this industry.

Purpose: The global halal industry has been making ground over the past decade in every sector of the worldwide economy. Indonesia is not left out in progress, considering its vast potential to develop the halal industry. This empirical study narrows down to the influence of halal labeling in the cosmetic industry as an export driver towards the economy of Indonesia.Methodology: This study undertakes a mixed-method approach drawing on quantitative and qualitative data. An in-depth face-to-face interview (with social distancing) was held using an interview guide, coupled with a survey questionnaire targeting regulators and manufacturers.Findings: The findings proved that halal certification, cosmetic quality, and brand image simultaneously affect buying decisions of cosmetics. Meanwhile, the Majelis Ulama Indonesia (MUI) recommends that cosmetics from Indonesia have a great opportunity to export. However, based on the results of interviews with cosmetic companies, they do not understand the concept of Maqashid al Syariah financing, which can integrate with the concept of halal products. Lastly, the cost of halal certification sometimes still burdens small-scale cosmetic companies, so support from the government is needed to encourage them to join the halal certification program.Originality: The research findings are helpful for the industry and regulators to address the export capabilities of Indonesian cosmetics. It provides an insight into the challenges and practical hindrances within the industry.

Objectives: This study aims to determine the effect of the size of the board of commissioners, the proportion of independent commissioners, family ownership, and audit quality on the level of voluntary disclosure of the company. Design/methodology/approach: An empirical study of 50 companies listed in the Indonesia Sharia Stock Index (ISSI) is conducted using the 2015-2016 annual report. The type of data used is secondary data. The analytical method used in this study is multiple linear regression analysis with SPSS 21. Findings: The results of statistical tests indicate that the size of the board of commissioners and audit quality have a positive and significant effect on the level of voluntary disclosure, while the proportion of independent commissioners and family ownership has no significant effect on the level of voluntary disclosure. Implications: The main implications of the results of this study are the size of the board of commissioners and the audit quality. The size of the board of commissioners has a strong relationship to the level of voluntary disclosure. There is a relationship between the number of the board of commissioners and the national laws that have an impact on monitoring the transparency process and the effectiveness of communication within the company. For audit quality, companies that use Big Four audit firms have an effect on the level of voluntary disclosure since their financial reporting will result in better audit quality with a high level of independence. The results of this study also support that agency theory is able to partially explain the phenomenon of the relationship between corporate governance practices and the level of voluntary disclosure in companies listed in ISSI. Originality/Value: This research is one of the studies that draw a relationship between the size of the board of commissioners and audit quality on the level of voluntary disclosure of companies in Indonesia. This finding provides confidence that the size of the board of commissioners and audit quality complement each other to improve the quality of voluntary disclosure.

Purpose: This research examines the effect of Perceived Ease of Use (PEOU), Perceived Usefulness (PU), religiosity, and company image on intention to use Sharia fintech for donation among Indonesian young consumers. Methodology: This study used a quantitative method with data collection techniques using an online questionnaire. Respondents filled out the questionnaire based on the Likert scale from 1 (strongly disagree) to 4 (strongly agree). The questionnaire was distributed and collected in less than one week, from 26th March 2021 to 29th March 2021. The ideal sample is five times higher than the number of indicators. The number of indicators is 20, so the ideal sample is 100 or more. This study has successfully collected 206 respondents. However, 13 respondents filled the same scale for all questions, so 193 is chosen as data analysis. The valid data were analyzed through Structural Equation Modeling Partial Least Square (SEM-PLS). Findings: This research shows the intention to use Sharia fintech to pay donations influenced by perceived usefulness (PU) and religiosity. In contrast, perceived ease of use (PEOU) and image are not positively related to the intention of using Sharia fintech for donation. Practical Implication: Religiosity and PU positively influence the interest in using Sharia fintech to pay donation. So, it is expected for fintech to comply with Sharia compliance and still comply with regulations from the OJK and DSN related to legality aspects. Furthermore, fintech startups and developers can build a more user-friendly application. Originality: This research is a replication-based model and is adapted from published research. The originality in this research is in the respondent who young generation. Intention to pay donation using fintech Sharia is the main focus to be researched. This primary focus has not been being researched beforehand.

Purpose: This paper investigates the competitiveness of the food and beverages (F&B) industry in Malaysia and examines the Small and Medium Enterprises' (SMEs) demand and key perceptions towards challenges in halal logistics. Methodology: This paper adopted SWOT analysis to understand the internal (strengths, weaknesses) and external (opportunities and threats) competitiveness of the industry. Interview sessions were conducted with 10 SMEs’ owners in the food industry from December 2020 until February 2021. Findings: The SWOT analysis identified several strengths (e.g. workforce diversity, well-established equipment, and facilities), weaknesses (e.g. a limited number of skilled workforce, lack of industrial collaboration, lack of distribution channel), opportunities (e.g. increasing food demand, advanced technology, supportive government initiatives, favorable business environment) and threats (e.g. high cost, new and changing regulation). The SMEs’ perception towards key challenges in halal logistics was also identified.

Methodology: This paper adopted SWOT analysis to understand the internal (strengths, weaknesses) and external (opportunities and threats) competitiveness of the industry. Interview sessions were conducted with 10 SMEs’ owners in the food industry from December 2020 until February 2021. Findings: The SWOT analysis identified several strengths (e.g. workforce diversity, well-established equipment, and facilities), weaknesses (e.g. a limited number of skilled workforce, lack of industrial collaboration, lack of distribution channel), opportunities (e.g. increasing food demand, advanced technology, supportive government initiatives, favorable business environment) and threats (e.g. high cost, new and changing regulation). The SMEs’ perception towards key challenges in halal logistics was also identified.

Purpose: This study aims to analyze the antecedents and consequences of the attitudes of Muslim women towards purchase intention of halal cosmetics. Methodology: This sample was taken by using the purposive sampling technique. In total, 232 Muslim women respondents are aware of halal-labeled cosmetics. Data is processed using Partial Least Square-Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) method with SmartPLS. Findings: The results of this study indicate that religiosity has a positive and significant influence on attitudes towards halal cosmetics, knowledge has a positive and significant influence on attitudes towards halal cosmetics, subjective norms have a positive and significant influence on attitudes towards halal cosmetics, and attitudes towards halal cosmetics has a positive and significant influence on purchase intention of halal cosmetics. Originality: Due to the inconsistent findings from past studies, the results of this study are expected to contribute to the literature in evaluating the behavioral intentions of Muslim women in Indonesia towards halal cosmetics. Cosmetics brand manufacturers can also use the results of this study for the halal labeling process of their products.
