Korespodensi : Integrated Thinking Within Integrated Reporting: An Implementation of Information System of Regional Investment Potential

Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of this research article is to assess what information should be connected and how its information can be connected based on integrated thinking fit within integrated reporting (IR) into information system of regional investment potential (ISRIP) of regional government. To explores and to develop insight into how it can be implemented over changes of investment climate due to the top down pressures to fulfill sustainable development goals (SDGs).

By taking samples for 100 (one hundred) regional investment units. Measurement used nominal scale with chi-square test for goodness of fit to get the measurement of observation frequency (OF) and compared with the expected frequency (EF). Findings: the measurement results showed observed frequency (OF) with a value of 137.97. Afterwards, for expected frequency (EF), with degrees of freedom (6-1) (7-1) and a significance level of 0.05, within the chi- square showed the value of 43.77. Due to OF > EF, this result indicated for being of corresponding between integrated thinking of regional investment within implementation of information system of regional investment potensial (ISRIP). With has the relationship level of Pearson contingency coefficient that showed value of 0.4057, as moderate relationship. Originality: This research article contributes to the growing debate about the benefits of integrated reporting as a voluntary reporting initiative, and in which some others organization have adopted (IR) as a mandatory initiative for the mode of reporting up to date. More specifically, in the efforts of regional governments to adopt an integrated thinking that is in line with the role of an integrated reporting system, in communicating of regional investment units.

We imply that the six capital (IR) with strategic communication will enhance performance of of ISRIP, through by fundamental way and as regional strategic wisdom. To meet the values of accountable organization within regional investment units's management.
