Percepatan Pelayanan Perizinan Berusaha Dalam Rangka Potensi Peningkatan Investasi Sektor Sumber Daya Alam: Pertanian, Farid Anfasa

"Dharmasisya” Jurnal Program Magister Hukum FHUI

This research discusses about licensing is a policy instrument of the government to control negative externalities that may be caused by social or economic activities. License is also an instrument for legal protection for the ownership or operation of activities. The Acceleration of Business Licensing Services in Indonesia is still far from ideal as expected by business people. Seeing this fact, there is a need to change the service paradigm, especially investment licensing services, so that investment licensing procedures can be created that can be categorized as cheap, fast and clear in accordance with predetermined public service standards. Therefore the …

Through the OSS system, licensing for undertaking and investing is simplified. The bureaucracy and lengthy licensing requirements that have been …

"Dharmasisya” Jurnal Program Magister Hukum FHUI

Capital market is one of the national development tools that nowdays has growed rapidly and its existence has become one of the financing alternatives in national development.

One of the enticing violations in the capital market was a fraud case committed by Larasati (one …

Implication Of Regional Tax Regulation For The Investment Climate And Its Relation With Omnibus Bill On Taxation, Debora Kristina Doloksaribu

"Dharmasisya” Jurnal Program Magister Hukum FHUI

The granting of autonomy to the regions is intended to provide democratic space and public participation. Legal certainty in the administration of regional government specifically related to taxes is very crucial, specifically for economic development, as it affects the investment climate. Any discrepancy between regional and central policies is seen as an obstacle in optimizing investment performance in the regions. The Government has proposed a Bill on General Provisions and Tax Facilities for Strengthening the Economy or also known as the Omnibus Bill on Taxation which regulates, among other things, regional tax and regional levy. One of principal arrangements in …

As a natural resource that can be renewed and is an unlimited energy, water has an important role in meeting the daily needs of humans and other living things, without water there would be no life.

Securitization Of Student Loans: A Proposal To Reform Federal Accounting, Reduce Government Risk, And Introduce Market Mechanisms As Indicators Of Quality Education, Robert Proudfoot

University of Massachusetts Law Review

This Article outlines looming budgetary and accounting issues with federal student loans and proposes securitization as an innovative mechanism to reform federal accounting, reduce federal balance sheet risk, and provide a new education quality indicator. The current federal loan program is unsustainable because it overestimates the repayment rates and underestimates the cost of certain loan programs. Securitization will reduce that federal risk. Additionally, by forcing academic institutions to bear some of the risk, securitization will create a neutral pricing mechanism outside the direct control of federal regulators to show whether academic institutions provide a quality education. While complicated, this proposal …

Federalism And Fiduciaries: A New Framework For Protecting State Benefit Funds, Richard E. Mendales

Richard E. Mendales

The financial crisis has underlined difficulties faced by states and their subdivisions in paying benefits to their employees. The most spectacular example is Detroit's bankruptcy, but state and local employers across the country face sharp cuts in benefits as their employers fight for solvency. A federal solution such as ERISA is precluded by considerations of federalism and the impracticability of getting major legislation through Congress. This Article proposes an alternative solution: a uniform state code, following other uniform state laws such as the Uniform Commercial Code, that states could adopt to govern both state and local plans. It would finance …

The Unjustified Subsidy: Sovereign Wealth Funds The Foreign Sovereign Tax Exemption, Jennifer Bird-Pollan

Fordham Journal of Corporate & Financial Law

The taxation of Sovereign Wealth Funds in the United States is outmoded and due for reconsideration. Offering a tax exemption to the billion dollar investment funds owned by foreign governments is both unfair and ineffective. Founded in the principles of sovereign immunity, the foreign sovereign tax exemption, codified in I.R.C. § 892, fails to satisfy the Congressional goals that motivated its creation. This Article explains the current taxation of foreign sovereigns and, by extension, Sovereign Wealth Funds. It then illustrates that the current exemption is simultaneously too broad, providing a tax exemption for activities that are clearly nongovernmental activities, and …

Policies To Expand Minority Entrepreneurship: Closing Comments, Michael S. Barr

Book Chapters

This essay is based on comments delivered at the Conference on on Entrepreneurship in Low- and Moderate-Income Communities, November 3-4, 2005. This has been a productive conversation. In my closing comments, I want to shift our focus somewhat, from entrepreneurship in low-income communities to minority entrepreneurship generally. I want to do so because many minority entrepreneurs are connected to or hire from low-income communities, and because minority entrepreneurs face critical barriers even when they attempt to create and grow firms outside of distressed communities. In this comment, I want to highlight key barriers and suggest five steps for Congress, the …

Regulation Of Imports And Foregn Investment In The United States On National Security Grounds, David Scott Nance, Jessica Wasserman

Michigan Journal of International Law

Traditionally, concerns over the effects of trade and investment on national security have centered upon the transfer of products and technologies with potential military uses. However, national security concerns also arise with respect to the economic and military impact of imports and of foreign acquisition of domestic assets. The United States has a longstanding statute, section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962, that allows the President to restrict imports of goods on national security grounds. More recently, another statute, popularly referred to as the Exon-Florio Act, provides the President with authority to bar the acquisition of United States …

The Impact Of Industrial Legislation On The Behavior Of Multinational Enterprises And Labor In The Industrializing Countries Of East And Southeast Asia, Kojo Yelpaala

Michigan Journal of International Law

The phenomenon of industrial legislation is not new in the world. Several industrialized, non-industrialized, capitalist, and socialist countries all have at different stages in their development used industrial legislation for the achievement of industrial goals, development targets and national welfare objectives. This legislation has generally addressed labor relations, taxes, plant location, exchange controls, and capital controls. What is perhaps new is its focus on the behavior of Multinational Enterprises (MNE). The emergence of the MNE on the world economic scene has introduced an elusive but important element in the industrial policy calculus of nations.

Toward A Uniform Approach To Multilevel Distributorships, Donald Daniels

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

The phenomenal growth and eventual collapse of the enterprises of Glenn Wesley Turner and William Penn Patrick during the 1960's should have surprised no one. They were only a recent example of an old and recurrent merchandising scheme, a variant of the chain letter device. Such operations, commonly called pyramid sales schemes, can temporarily succeed where a credulous public, willing to believe that it can get rich quickly for a small monetary investment and little or no expenditure of effort, exists in a legal system lacking a coordinated program for the prevention of such machinations. Pyramid sales schemes have been …

An Analysis Of Recent Proposals For Reform Of Federal Securities Legislation, William H. Painter

Michigan Law Review

Today the securities industry is in the midst of rapid change. Indeed it has been for at least the past decade, but in recent years the pace of change has increased, and its emphasis has shifted. Legislative and administrative reforms that could not have been anticipated a decade ago are likely in the near future, and it is still impossible to predict accurately the shape of the markets of tomorrow or the rules by which they will be governed. It is the purpose of this Article to focus on these recent developments, to summarize and evaluate various proposals for reform, …

Domestic Corporate Tangible And Intangible Invested Capital, Frederick M. Thulin

Michigan Law Review

With a tax law on the statute books that fixes a moderate flat rate of taxation on business income, no question of invested capital need be considered. The income tax laws of 1913 and 1916 and the flat rate or normal tax section of the 1917 law and the proposed 1918 law bear out this statement.
