companies are very vulnerable to agency conflicts because shareholders and
management often conflict in achieving their respective welfare. Thus, obtaining
benefits for both parties is highly dependent on the results of the company's
performance. Signaling Theory developed by (Nugrahaningsih, 2021) states that there
are signals of success or failure that occur in companies that need to be conveyed by
management as company managers to shareholders as company owners to reduce
asymmetric information (Munir, Arief, Abdinagoro, & Furinto, 2022).
Performance is a portrait of the company's finances in a certain period to show
good and bad financial performance concerning the collection or distribution of funds
and is measured by financial analysis through financial ratios, so that performance in a
certain period or last year with the following period can be compared, including
comparing financial statements with other companies, especially in the same industry.
Thus, companies can evaluate, plan, and control the company's performance growth.
(Yulianti, Djatmika, & Santoso, 2017) said that efficiency and company
performance are interconnected where the primary goal of a company is to maximize
shareholder profits by carrying out optimal performance productivity through an
efficient system, which can be achieved by managing and evaluating the use of costs
and resources to minimize the occurrence of cost reduction. This is also supported by
Duston et al. (2014) that companies that are efficient in building development and
investment actively use the best assets.
(Viverita, 2019) argues that increasingly fierce competition encourages companies
to try to be more optimal in providing services and efficiency. This is reinforced by the
opinion of (Eling & Schaper, 2017), where the results of their research illustrate that life
insurance companies in Europe from 2002-2013 experienced increased efficiency due to
increasingly competitive business conditions. Thus, environmental changes affect
productivity and efficiency. Then, the hypothesis can be determined as follows:
H1: BPJS's policies positively affect insurance companies' efficiency levels.
(Jang & Ahn, 2021) analyzed Korean outbound shipping companies' financial
performance ratio before and after the 2008 financial crisis. Korean outbound shipping
companies relatively increased their stability, profitability, productivity, development,
and performance before the financial crisis compared to transportation companies and
other industries. However, these parameters tended to decrease after the financial crisis.
(Zhang et al., 2020) in (Jang & Ahn, 2021) based on his research using financial panel
data from 29 medium-sized shipping companies within the ten years from 2009 to 2018
and independent variables derived from financial data regarding strategy. The analysis
results related to the growth strategy show that the components of assets, turnover,
equity, and debt affect performance. The hypotheses can be determined as follows:
H2: There are differences in the performance of insurance companies before and
after implementing the BPJS regulations.
