The digital transformation of Islamic finance encourages the evolution of musharakah contracts into a technology-based crowdfunding ecosystem. However, this change also presents a more complex moral hazard risk due to the limitations of direct supervision. This research aims to synthesize the scientific literature for the period 2015-2025 in order to map the digital evolution of musharakah contracts and formulate a moral hazard risk mitigation framework that is adaptive to the characteristics of sharia crowdfunding platforms. The study uses a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) with a descriptive-analytical approach across 15 reputable scientific articles. The findings show that the moral hazard in sharia crowdfunding stems from information asymmetry, weaknesses in digital financial reporting, and limited platform oversight capacity, which collectively weakens the integrity of profit-sharing-based contracts. Effective mitigation requires the integration of four dimensions, namely algorithmic technology such as blockchain and smart contracts, strengthening digital sharia supervisory institutions, updating specific OJK regulations, and increasing the capacity of Islamic financial literacy, which together form the concept of Algorithmic Sharia Governance as a novelty in this study.
The main objective of this study was to examine the effect of blockchain technology on future of external auditing in Nigeria. Decentralized network and consensus mechanism were the proxies for blockchain technology. Thus, two hypotheses were formulated to guide the investigation and the statistical test of parameter estimates was conducted using least squares regression model operated with E-Views.12. Survey design was adopted and data for the study was obtained through the use of e-questionnaire survey sent to the various Staff WhatsApp Group Platform of the selected audit firms in Anambra State Nigeria. The results of the study reveal that the use of decentralized network has positive and significant effect on the future of external auditing in Nigeria at 1% level of significance. Also, the use of consensus mechanism in auditing has positive and significant effect on the future of external auditing in Nigeria at 5% significant level. Based on this, the study concludes that blockchain technology ensure the future of external auditing in Nigeria. In lieu of the findings of the study, the study recommends for the continual use of decentralized network in auditing as the future of external auditing lies on it. Also, the use of consensus mechanism should also be encouraged as it ensures accuracy and reliability in audit reporting.

This study aims to analyze the effect of Blockchain technology adoption and corporate transparency on firm value, with audit quality as a moderating variable, in State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs) listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the 2021–2025 period. The study used a quantitative approach with secondary data obtained from annual reports and company financial statements. The sample was determined using a purposive sampling technique, resulting in 13 SOEs with a total of 65 observations. Data analysis was performed using the Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) method through SmartPLS. The results showed that Blockchain technology adoption had a positive and significant effect on firm value (β = 0.287; t = 2.806; p = 0.006), while corporate transparency had no significant effect on firm value (β = 0.020; t = 0.180; p = 0.857). Audit quality also has a positive and significant effect on firm value (β = 0.490; t = 8.187; p < 0.001). As a moderating variable, audit quality is proven to strengthen the influence of Blockchain technology adoption on firm value (β = 0.195; t = 2.744; p = 0.007), but is unable to moderate the relationship between corporate transparency and firm value (β = -0.068; t = 0.955; p = 0.341). These findings indicate that Blockchain implementation supported by high audit quality can increase investor confidence and firm value, while corporate transparency has not been a major factor in increasing firm value in SOEs.
Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis perkembangan literatur mengenai pemanfaatan teknologi digital dalam meningkatkan kualitas audit melalui pendekatan bibliometrik. Data penelitian diperoleh dari database Scopus dengan menggunakan kata kunci yang berkaitan dengan audit quality, auditing, dan berbagai teknologi digital. Setelah melalui proses penyaringan berdasarkan periode publikasi, bidang ilmu, jenis dokumen, dan bahasa, diperoleh 435 artikel yang diterbitkan pada periode 2011–2025. Analisis dilakukan menggunakan Biblioshiny pada paket Bibliometrix di R Studio untuk memetakan tren publikasi, sumber publikasi utama, penulis paling berpengaruh, jaringan kolaborasi, serta perkembangan tema penelitian. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa jumlah publikasi mengalami pertumbuhan yang signifikan dengan dominasi tema artificial intelligence, blockchain, big data analytics, dan machine learning. Journal of Emerging Technologies in Accounting dan International Journal of Accounting Information Systems menjadi sumber publikasi utama, sedangkan Vasarhelyi M.A. merupakan penulis paling berpengaruh dalam bidang ini. Analisis tematik menunjukkan bahwa audit quality masih berada pada kategori emerging themes, yang mengindikasikan perlunya penelitian lebih lanjut mengenai dampak teknologi digital terhadap kualitas audit. Temuan ini memberikan gambaran komprehensif mengenai evolusi penelitian audit berbasis teknologi dan peluang pengembangan penelitian di masa depan.
