Faktor-Faktor yang Memengaruhi Financial Distress pada Perusahaan yang Terafiliasi Israel

This study examines the factors that influence financial distress in companies affiliated with Israel, focusing on the roles of profitability, liquidity, leverage, sales growth, and firm size. The research is driven by the phenomenon of boycotts caused by geopolitical conflicts involving Israel, which have impacted the financial performance of several companies, particularly in Indonesia. The study uses a quantitative approach, analyzing a sample of companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) that are affiliated with Israel during the 2023-2024 period. The data consists of quarterly financial statements, which are analyzed using the Altman Z-Score bankruptcy prediction model. The findings show that profitability and liquidity have a significant effect on financial distress, while leverage and sales growth have a smaller impact. Firm size is also found to reduce the risk of financial distress. These results suggest that companies linked to Israel are more vulnerable to financial risks due to boycotts triggered by international political tensions.
