ASEAN is one of the regions with great potential of the world economic power. Countries included in the association of Southeast Asian countries are predicted to show strong economic growth. There are many factors for the development of the ASEAN region such as insurance industry. The Southeast Asian insurance industry, with a stable and long-term financial asset commitment, could play a bigger role in supporting the region's overall economic growth.

The result revealed that premium volume of life insurance and non-life insurance, respectively, maintained positive and significant effects on the econom-ic growth. Life insurance penetration and density also give significant effects on economic growth while non-life insurance penetration and density are not statistically significant for the economic growth.

Due to market changes in the digital era, we argue that innovation based on dynamic capability is accelerated when aligned with market orientation. Digital leadership will significantly enable sensing market changes, seizing opportunities, and reconfiguring organizations. Previous studies on digital leadership, dynamic capability, and innovation management focus mainly on constructs, benefits, and implications. However, a study on the role of digital leadership based on dynamic capability in fostering innovation and the impact of market orientation have not been thoroughly explored, which is the aim of this study, taking market orientation as a moderating variable. Employing a quantitative methodology, data were collected through online questionnaires, distributed through email and messaging applications to a purposive sample of 88 senior managers of Indonesian telecommunication firms. The results reveal that digital leadership based on dynamic capability impacts directly and indirectly on developing innovation. Market orientation also plays an important role in accelerating innovation. Due to limitations in terms of research model, sample size, and time, further research using larger samples in other industries and countries should be undertaken.

The stock exchange in Indonesia acts as a means of financial resources of business and investment for the community. Any investor needs some profit from his/her investment. However, in determining a policy for decision making, many investors do not always think, rationally. Moreover, stock trading in the stock exchange/money market faces with high uncertainty, which may create some ir-rational acts and leads to irrational investment decisions. This study aims to test the biased inves-tor’s behavior, such as overconfidence, disposition effect, and risk tolerance on investor’s trading activities in the Indonesian Stock Exchange.

Meanwhile, some investors appointed to be the subject in this research were the customers of some Securities. The survey distributed 170 questionnaires and collected 141 properly filled ones used in this research. The testing result employing simultaneous multi-nominal logistic regression show that the overall model used was quite significant. The testing conducted partially also shows that only overconfident investors were affected by trading activities. Meanwhile, the opportunity of the overconfident investor to do trading was considered to be moderate as much as 0.177 multiplied from the “infrequent” category.
