PRESS RELEASE

FOR THE MONTHLY BOARD OF BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS MEETING OF FEBRUARY 2025

FINANCIAL SERVICES SECTOR STABILITY REMAINS SECURE AMID INCREASING ECONOMIC DYNAMICS

Jakarta, 4 March 2025. The Monthly Board of Commissioners Meeting of the Indonesia Financial Services Authority (OJK) on 26 February 2025 assessed that the stability of the Financial Services Sector (Sektor Jasa Keuangan/SJK) remains well-maintained despite global and domestic economic challenges.

Global economic growth remained relatively stagnant, with inflation in several advanced economies beginning to indicate a declining trend. Market volatility remained elevated due to ongoing uncertainty surrounding economic and geopolitical policy developments.

In the U.S., economic growth remained solid, supported by strong domestic consumption. Inflation stood at 3% year-on-year (yoy) in January 2025, while core CPI rose to 3.3% yoy, indicating that price pressures outside the energy and food sectors remain substantial. The labor market remained solid, with the unemployment rate falling to 4%, although Nonfarm Payroll additions were significantly below market expectations. Monetary policy remained neutral, with the Federal Reserve expected to cut the Fed Funds Rate (FFR) only once or twice in 2025.

On the geopolitical front, efforts to resolve the Ukraine-Russia conflict have yet to yield progress. The recent meeting between Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and U.S. President Donald Trump at the White House ended without an agreement. Furthermore, the U.S. administration's plans to impose new tariffs on its trading partners have further heightened economic uncertainty.

In China, economic growth remained subdued, with the CPI recorded at a low 0.5% yoy and the Producer Price Index (PPI) continuing to contract. Meanwhile, the PMI remained in expansionary territory but declined to 50.1, below market expectations. The People's Bank of China (PBoC) maintained its benchmark interest rate, signaling a cautious approach to monetary easing. Furthermore, China tightened regulations on rare earth exports, which could impact the global technology industry.

Domestically, inflation remained under control, with January inflation recorded at 0.76% yoy and core inflation at 2.26% yoy, reflecting stable domestic demand. Several domestic demand indicators warrant close monitoring, however, including continued declines in motorcycle and automobile sales, lower cement sales, slower housing price growth, and declining home sales volume. On the supply side, the Manufacturing PMI rose to 51.9 in January 2025 from 51.2. Meanwhile, Indonesia's external sector remained robust despite the global economic slowdown, as reflected in the sustained trade surplus. In January 2025, the trade surplus increased to USD3.45 billion (Dec-24: USD2.24 billion), representing 71.71% yoy growth.

Developments in the Capital Market, Financial Derivative, and Carbon Exchange Sector (PMDK)

Amid prevailing sentiment regarding global economic conditions, the domestic stock market closed down by 11.80% month-to-date (mtd) at 6,270.60 on 28 February 2025 (year-to-date/ytd: down 11.43%). Market capitalization stood at IDR10,879.86 trillion, marking an 11.68% mtd decline (ytd: down 11.80%). Meanwhile, non-resident investors recorded a net sell of IDR18.19 trillion mtd (ytd: net sell of IDR21.90 trillion).

OJK Policy Directions

To maintain the stability of the SJK and enhance its role in national economic growth, OJK has implemented the following policy measures:

A.   Policies for Maintaining Financial System Stability

1. OJK supports the implementation of government policies, specifically Government Regulation (PP) No. 8 of 2025, which amends PP No. 36 of 2023 regarding Export Proceeds in Foreign Exchange (Devisa Hasil Eskpor/DHE) from the Exploitation, Management, and/or Processing of Natural Resources (Sumber Daya Alam/SDA), to increase the country's foreign exchange reserves. OJK and SJK have conveyed their support for the DHE SDA policy to the banking industry and Indonesia Eximbank (LPEI), particularly in relation to prudential aspects. Additionally, OJK requires banks to ensure the completeness of documents when utilizing DHE SDA. The policy support provided includes:

• DHE SDA funds can be treated as cash collateral as long as they meet the requirements in OJK regulations regarding the asset quality of commercial banks/Sharia banks and Indonesia Eximbank (LPEI) supervision regulations.

• The portion of funding secured by cash collateral in the form of DHE SDA funds that meets certain conditions can be excluded from the calculation of Maximum Lending Limits (Batas Maksimum Pemberian Kredit/BMPK)/Maximum Funding Limits (Batas Maksimum Pemberian Dana/BMPD)/Maximum Financing Limits (Batas Maksimum Pemberian Pembiayaan/BMPP).

• The portion of loans/financing secured by DHE SDA funds that meet the requirements is classified as performing loans.

• The placement of DHE SDA does not affect prudential ratio calculations (LCR, NSFR, Capital Adequacy Ratio (Kewajiban Penyediaan Modal Minimum/KPMM), CEMA, and BMPK/BMPD).

2. In response to recent Developments in Capital Market and to formulate concrete measures to ensure the stability and resilience of Indonesia's capital market while supporting national financial industry growth, OJK and SRO held a Dialogue and Joint Press Conference with Capital Market Stakeholders on 3 March 2025, at the IDX Main Hall, themed "Solidarity and Synergy of Capital Market Stakeholders."

• Considering current market conditions and the need to maintain capital market stability while ensuring investor protection, OJK will continue to monitor market developments. As an initial step, OJK will postpone the implementation of stock short-selling activities. Additionally, other policy options under review include allowing stock buybacks without a General Meeting of Shareholders (RUPS), while taking into account the evolving situation.

• OJK has established open communication between regulators, market players, and other stakeholders as a tangible realization of synergy, commitment, and shared responsibility for Indonesia's capital market industry and economy
  

B. Policies for the Development and Strengthening of the SJK and Market Infrastructure

• OJK has approved bullion business activities for PT Pegadaian and Bank Syariah Indonesia (BSI) following the issuance of OJK Regulation (POJK) No. 17 of 2024 concerning the Organization of Bullion Business Activities (POJK 17/2024). This approval is the starting point for developing an integrated bullion ecosystem in Indonesia, which is expected to benefit both the industry and the wider community.

• ​OJK has issued the following regulations:

1. ​POJK No. 1 of 2025 on Financial Derivatives with Underlying Securities, to facilitate the transition of financial derivative regulations from Bappebti to OJK.

It aims to strengthen a sustainable professional certification ecosystem by regulating competency standards, institutional governance, reporting requirements, and sanction enforcement.

• ​​​OJK is currently drafting:
  

1. Draft of OJK Regulation (RPOJK) concerning Transparency and Publication of Bank Reports. This RPOJK serves as an umbrella regulation for banks regarding the publication of performance information, the role of banks as issuers and public companies, bank compliance with Basel regulations, their role in consumer protection, and other aspects, making it an integrated source of information for the public. The drafting of this POJK is expected to strengthen reporting integrity, enhance market discipline, and increase public trust in the banking sector. Additionally, this POJK aims to improve bank reporting governance by minimizing redundancy and distinguishing between public disclosures and reports submitted to OJK.

2. RPOJK concerning the Financial Health of Insurance and Reinsurance Companies, as well as a Draft OJK Regulation (RPOJK) on the Financial Health of Sharia Insurance and Reinsurance Companies. These draft OJK regulations aim to refine regulations regarding investment limits on related parties for PAYDI sub-funds and non-PAYDI assets based on their respective risk profile, direct investments in non-listed companies, and adjustments to PAYDI sub-fund investment regulations concerning mutual funds.

C. Development and Strengthening of the Islamic Financial Services Sector (Islamic SJK)

In the Islamic financial industry, the Islamic Stock Index (ISSI) declined by 8.74% year-to-date. Meanwhile, the performance of Islamic financial intermediation continued to show positive year-over-year growth, with Islamic finance growing 9.77%, Islamic insurance contributions increasing 1.20%, and Islamic financing receivables rising 9.91%.

In accordance with Article 9 of POJK 11/2023 on the Separation of Islamic Units in Insurance and Reinsurance Companies, 41 insurance/reinsurance companies submitted their Islamic Unit Separation Work Plans (RKPUS) in December 2023, with 29 Islamic business units declaring their intention to spin off. Based on the latest update, in 2025, 18 Islamic business units are planning to conduct a spin-off, while eight Islamic business units will transfer their portfolios to existing insurance companies.

To strengthen collaboration and strategic alliances, efforts to enhance Islamic financial literacy and inclusion continue to be carried out, including:

D.  Strengthening OJK Governance

• OJK continues to strengthen internal risk management through continuous improvements to enhance governance and uphold integrity. One of the initiatives includes the Internal Supervision Work Meeting Forum to reinforce the internalization of combined assurance and the three lines model, as well as the adoption of an international framework referring to the Global Internal Audit Standard (GIAS).

• Realizing its commitment to continuously strengthen governance and integrity in the SJK in order to maintain financial stability and support economic growth—aligned with efforts to achieve Asta Cita, the vision of the President of the Republic of Indonesia, particularly point No. 7 on eradicating corruption and minimizing fraud—OJK continues to enhance collaboration with all stakeholders, including:

1. Governance Insight Forum (In Fo) with the theme "Building an Integrity-Based SJK with OJK" in North Sumatra.

2. Student Integrity Campaign (In Camp) 2025, held at the University of North Sumatra, Medan.

3. Webinar on "The Role of GRC in Enhancing Investor Confidence and Financial Sector Stability," organized by the OJK Institute.

• OJK also continues to enhance the competence and quality of human resources in overseeing SJK through cooperation with the Audit Board of the Republic of Indonesia (BPK RI), which has been in place since 2023, to conduct training on Quality Control and Quality Assurance (QCQA). QCQA training aims to improve the quality control of supervision, allowing OJK to detect potential issues in financial institutions (LJK) at an early stage and minimize audit findings from both internal and external auditors.

• OJK received a visit from the Supervisory Body of the Supreme Court of the Republic of Indonesia to discuss best practices in gratification control. The visit follows recommendations from the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK), which recognized OJK as one of the institutions that consistently implements effective gratification control.
