JAKARTA - The Financial Transaction Reports and Analysis Center (PPATK) has again stopped the flow of funds from investors to various parties suspected of selling illegal investment products.
"Today PPATK has again temporarily suspended transactions and blocked transactions reaching a value of Rp. 105.4 billion and this amount came from 8 accounts obtained from 1 financial service provider (PJK)," said PPATK Head Ivan Yustiviadana in a written statement, Monday, March 7.
PPATK had previously suspended and blocked Rp202 billion from 100 accounts at 55 financial service providers.
Ivan said this number will continue to grow in accordance with the analysis process carried out by PPATK according to its duties and authorities.
PPATK has the authority to temporarily suspend transactions for 20 working days and then coordinate and report to law enforcement on suspicious transactions in large amounts related to investments that are suspected to be illegal.
"The PPATK's considerations in taking this step were among others due to suspicious financial transaction reports from financial service providers as well as a number of profiling irregularities," said Ivan.
