President Director of the Indonesian Central Securities Depository (KSEI) Samsul Hidayat said KSEI targets the number of capital market investors to increase by 2 million next year.

"If the target, of course, KSEI has an internal target, it's just that we are always guided by the 2023-2027 OJK roadmap, support for the achievement of the roadmap, of course, from the investor side, we are targeted to be at 2 million again, an additional 2 million in 2025," he said at the KSEI 27th Anniversary celebration event in Jakarta on Monday, December 23.
