LQ45 Companies ABSTRACT This research aims to determine the effect of firm value and institutional investors on herding behavior. The newnes of this research to add an indicator that have never been used for herding measurement to firm value. The existence of previous research result on herding that have not been conclusive raise empirical gaps and population gaps that are worthy of re-study. The measurement of firm value is carried out using the Book to Market Ratio and Firm Size. The size of institutional investors uses the companyAos institutional ownership, and the measurement of herding behavior uses the Cross-Sectional Absolute Deviation (CSAD) method. The sample in this study are LQ45. The data analysis method used in this study was carried out with multiple regression The study results show that there is indication of the occurrence of Herding Behavior in LQ45 companies in sample. Firm Value and institutional investors do not influence Herding Behavior. p-ISSN:1411-6510 e-ISSN :2541-6111 JURNAL Riset Akuntansi dan Keuangan Indonesia INTRODUCTION The rapid development of the Indonesian capital market shows that investment in Indonesia is growing and in demand. According to the Decree of the Minister of Finance of the Republic of Indonesia Number 1548/kmk/1990 concerning Capital Market Regulations, which is meant by: AuAn organized financial system, including commercial banks and all financial intermediaries, as well as all securities in circulation. Ay The capital market can be an alternative investment. According to data from the Indonesian Central Securities Depository, the number of investors in Indonesia in 2019-2020 615 million registered investors. This number is an increase of 45. 51 percent compared to the end of 2019. There are 2. 484 million investors. In this case, it can be seen that there is an increase in capital market interest in investing. In determining his decision in investing can beinfluenced by several factors. Changes in the actions of investorsAo decisions can be influenced by psychological factors that can change the decisions taken by investors that can be called financial behavior. The tendency of investor behavior to follow the actions of other investors can be called a herding . Factors causing the occurrence of herding The existence of Firm Value in . Institutional investors also have a role in the occurrence of herding behavior shown in . The herding behavior generated by rational investors because the processing of information can be based on fundamental and non-fundamental factors Based on the basic information or value of the same company assessed by the investor, investors make homogeneous trading decisions according to the fundamentals of the company. measured by the ratio of Book to Market and Firm size. Firm value is an important aspect in the occurrence of Herding Behavior. The value of the company as an investorAos view of a company with certain conditions of the results achieved by the company in a process of cell activityama several years . Theherding p erilaku caused by rational investors due to information processing can be based on fundamental and nonfundamental factors . Based on the same basic information or Firm Value assessed by investors, investors make Vol. 7 No. 3 Desember 2022 homogeneous trading decisions in accordance with the fundamentals of the company. Previous research stated that the Firm Value indicator affects herding In this study, the value of the company was measured by the ratio of Book to Market and Firm size. In addition to the Firm Value, the role of institutional investors can also trigger inappropriate This becomes even more important because large investors . nstitutional investor. are dominating the market. The performance of institutional investors is measured by looking at the performance of other institutional investors and they also base their investment decisions on the trading decisions of professional market participants . US. Hong Kong. Japan. South Korea, and Taiwan. This study focuses on the value of companies and institutional investors to detect herding behavior dueto empirical gaps and population gaps in previous studies, this study wants to prove the Firm Value and institutional investor values on herding behavior. LITERATURE REVIEW AND HYPOTHESIS DEVELOPMENT Literature Review Prospect Theory Prospect theory defines the theory when a person will look for sources of information and will then make some decision concepts indecision making . Prospect theory suggests that a different reaction occurs in each individual between potential losses and gains. If a person is in a profit position, the character has a tendency to stay away from risks, while in a loss position, the character has a tendency to dare to take risks. The relevance between prospect theory and this research is that in this study the prospect theory is able to explain the risk preferences of the value of companies and institutional investors that can influence investment decisions that can affect herding behavior when they believe that herding behavior can help them to obtain useful and reliable information. Herding Behavior Herding Behavior steered a group of investors in the same direction of yang in the same period . Herding Behavior as a psychological condition Fenny Marietza. Salsabila Tifani Ayuningsih Vol. 7 No. 3 Desember 2022 JURNAL Riset Akuntansi dan Keuangan Indonesia when investors ignore their personal beliefs and assumeitAos beliefs of the other . There are several ways to measure Herding behavior. However, for the approach in looking at herding behavior, the researcher uses measurements from . US. Hong Kong. Japan. South Korea, and Taiwan, as the inventors of the Cross Sectional Absolute Deviation (CSAD) method to detect herding, there is a relationship between Cross Sectional Absolute Deviation (CSAD) and the market variable squared. (RM. Firm Value Firm Value is defined as a special condition that has been achieved by a company as an illustration of public trust in the company after running a process of activity for several years from the beginning of the companyAos establishment to the present. ThecompanyAos value in this study was measured by the ratio of BTM and Firm Size. The Book to Market ratio compares the book value per share and the market value of the stock . Book to market ratio is a ratio that is often used in analyzing the amount of profit from stocks. Firm Size is a ratio that can reflect the levelof success of a company . Firm Size can be measured Firm Size can be measured by the companyAos total assets or significant assets by using the calculation of the logarithmic value of the total assets. The large Firm Size reflects that the company is experiencing and the growth of yang is good for increasing the value of the company. Institutional investors Institutional investors are people who have institutional ownership. institutional ownership isa percentage of shares owned by institutions . Institutional share ownership can be owned by mutual funds, corporations, securities companies, pension funds, insurance companies, institutions. Institutional investors are measured by the percentage proportion of shares that institutions own at the end of the year.

This study measures the value of the company with Firm Size and book to market ratio. Several studies have shown a relationship between these variables and herding behavior. In . show that past measures and returns correlate positively with herding behavior, but the ratio of book to market and market beta is negatively related. In . showed that herding behavior is positively correlated with market capitalization. BTM, stock returns, and company liquidity. Volatility of size trading volume has a positive effect on herding behavior, and returns negatively affect herding behavior . Size has no effect on herding behavior. However, for eps variables. BTM. Volatility has a positive effect on herding behavior . herding behavior correlates positively with company size,sales herding is positively influenced by a larger Book to Market Ratio . From the results of the previous research above, the hypothesis of this study is as follows: H2. a: Book to Market Ratio positively affects Herding behavior H2. b: Firm Size has a positive effect on Herding Behavior Several previous studies have examined the influence of institutional investors on herding Hanafi . says that there is herding behavior among institutional investors.

Vol. 7 No. 3 Desember 2022 behavior, what is measured is the relationship of Cross-Sectional Absolute Deviation (CSAD) with the variable squared market return (RM. If there is an indication of herding behavior, then the relationship between the squared market return (RM. and the dispersion value (CSAD) is non-linear and significantly negative (_2 < . The variables used in this study refer to the Crosectional Absolute Deviation (CSAD) method of . US. Hong Kong. Japan. South Korea, and Taiwan, namely an independent variable (Variable X) consisting of absolute market return (| Rm,. ) and the squared market return (RM. , and the bound variable . ariable Y) in this study is the dispersion value of the stock return or cross-sectional value Absolute market return (| Rm, . ) is the absolute value of the difference between the prices listed in the composite stock price index at theend of the period and the beginning of the period. Absolute market return (|Rm, . ) can be measured using the following measurements: Market Return Square (RM. is the squared value for the difference between the prices listed in the composite stock price index at the end of the period and the beginning of the period. (RM. can be measured using the following measurements: Dispersion Value (CSAD) is a value for measuring how far the return difference of an individual asset is when compared to the average market return. Thus, to find the value of stock return dispersion (CSAD) it is necessary to return individual stocks and market returns that can be measured by the following measurements: Operational Definitions and Variable Definitions. Herding Behavior The bound variable in this study is herding Fenny Marietza. Salsabila Tifani Ayuningsih Vol. 7 No. 3 Desember 2022 After obtaining individual stock returns and market returns, the dispersion value of stock returns (CSAD) can be measured by the following Firm Values In this study.

This is in accordance with the test criteria that the results of the multicholinearity test do not have a correlation coefficient value between variables (R. which is more than 0. it can be concluded that the data have no multicholinearity problems in the regression model in this study. Autocorrelation Test Autocorrelation testing on non-time series data, both cross section data and panel data, will only be useless . This is because, especially in the data panel, although there is time series data, it is not a pure time series . Therefore, the autocorrelation test was not carried out in this so, in this study it is assumed that for certain free variables no autocorrelation occurs. Heteroskedasticity Test The Heteroskedasticity test aims to determine whether in a regression model there are differences in variancefrom oneresidual difference to another . In this study, for models 1 and 2, there is no need to test heteroskedasticity because this model is a REM (Random Effect Mode. The REM model uses the Generalized Least Squares (GLS) estimation method. The GLS approach is useful for treating symptoms of heteroskedasticity. So, the REM model is free from the symptoms of Based on Table 4 on models 1 and 2, it can be seen that this F test produces F values of 137. 29658 with significance values of 0. 00000, the Sig value < 0. 05 then it can be concluded that model 1 and fit so that all variables simultaneously affect the dependent variables.
