A proud achievement has been attained by students of STIE YKPN Business School. Team Phoenix from the Accounting Student Association (HMJA) secured Second Place at the KIMBAP Paper Competition, organized by Sanata Dharma University, Yogyakarta.
The national scientific paper competition served as a platform for students from various universities across Indonesia to present critical ideas and innovative solutions to contemporary issues in economics and business.
In this competition, Team Phoenix presented a scientific paper entitled “FOMO-FILTER: A Digital Investment Decision-Making Framework for University Students in the Social Media Era.” The paper proposes a decision-making framework designed to help students invest intelligently, rationally, and systematically amid the overwhelming flow of digital information.
Through this approach, students are encouraged to avoid investment decisions driven by the phenomenon of Fear of Missing Out (FOMO), which is often fueled by trends and information circulating on social media. The relevance of the topic, the depth of analysis, and the practical contribution of the proposed framework distinguished the paper and earned high appreciation from the panel of judges.
This achievement resulted from the hard work and collaboration of three accounting students: Chantika Rayhanike Ane Afanti, Amelia Dike Nabila Putri, and Amelia Romanita. Their success demonstrates the ability of STIE YKPN students to produce high-quality academic work that responds to current developments while offering meaningful solutions to challenges faced by the younger generation.
During the preparation of the paper and throughout the competition process, Team Phoenix received guidance and mentorship from Dr. Frasto Biyanto, S.E., M.Si., Ak., CA., CSRS., CSRA., Head of the Undergraduate Accounting Study Program at STIE YKPN. His supervision and valuable insights contributed significantly to enhancing the quality of the research and strengthening the substance of the ideas presented by the team in this national-level competition.
The accomplishment of Team Phoenix is not only a source of pride for STIE YKPN but also reflects the institution’s commitment to fostering a strong academic culture, critical thinking, and innovation that addresses societal needs. It is hoped that this achievement will inspire other students to continue developing their academic potential, producing impactful work, and excelling in competitions at both the national and international levels.
