"This year's good achievement is a positive catalyst for the performance of the capital market in the next year and contributes to the revival of the Indonesian economy. Let us build optimism that after passing this test, we will be stronger and more resilient in facing the challenges ahead" he said, in the closing trading of shares of the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) virtually, Wednesday, December 30.

Wimboh said, the confidence of investors and capital market players in Indonesia's economic fundamentals and prospects as well as the integrity of the Indonesian capital market is very important for the development of the national capital market industry.
"We also want to appreciate all parties, including the government, Bank Indonesia, LPS, SRO and all players in the capital market industry for their good cooperation so far, because without good cooperation and coordination, these achievements cannot be realized," he said. .
