JAKARTA - PT Bursa Efek Indonesia (IDX) reported that the number of Indonesian capital market investors had reached more than 15 million single investor identification (SID) by the end of January 2025.

This achievement cannot be separated from the support of the Financial Services Authority (OJK), self-regulatory organization (SRO) and its subsidiaries, as well as the synergy and collaboration of stakeholders in implementing capital market education programs.

"The capital market can play an active role in achieving Indonesia's economic growth," said IDX President Director Iman Rachman as quoted by ANTARA, Monday, February 10.

Iman said that this potential can be realized if all stakeholders, such as the government, regulators, corporations, and investors, work together to advance a more inclusive, transparent, and global competitive capital market.

"Together, we can realize big ideals for a stronger and more sustainable Indonesian economy," said Iman.

As of January 30, 2025, PT Kustodian Sentral Efek Indonesia (KSEI) recorded that the number of Indonesian capital market investors reached 15,161,166 SID, or grew by 289,527 SID compared to the previous month.

Iman said the growth reflected optimism for the Indonesian capital market, along with increasing financial literacy and public participation in investment.

"This shows the public's growing interest in share ownership as a long-term investment instrument," said Iman.

Starting 2025, the IDX has organized 411 educational activities in various regions, such as the implementation of capital market schools, investor forums, public education and visits to the IDX, to the creation of educational content on social media.

"This effort shows the IDX's commitment to reaching the wider community and encourages an increase in the number of sustainable investors," said Iman.

IDX Development Director Jeffrey Hendrik said when compared to the total population of Indonesia that exceeds 280 million people, the current achievement of the number of capital market investors shows that the growth potential is still very large.

Therefore, he continued, the IDX will continue to expand the reach of education to all levels of society, and increase capital market inclusion through strategic collaboration with various parties.

"As well as optimizing innovative educational programs, so that more people can invest safely and sustainably," said Jeffrey.

One of the IDX's focuses is to increase the financial literacy and inclusion of all Indonesian people and encourage the younger generation to actively participate in the Indonesian capital market.

The IDX really appreciates the role of all supporters, including strategic partners, who have worked together in an effort to increase financial literacy and inclusion throughout Indonesia.

"Through the achievements at the beginning of this year as well as the synergy and support provided by the parties, it is hoped that the Indonesian capital market can always be the foundation for a strong and sustainable Indonesian economy," said Jeffrey.
