JAKARTA - Ustaz Yusuf Mansur admitted that he had not received an official 'summons' from the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX). The call was planned by the IDX because of the rise of influencers and public figures who often recommend shares on social media.
"There has been no call yet," Yusuf said when contacted by VOI, Thursday, January 7.
Yusuf Mansur often shows off his investment in stock instruments through his personal Instagram account. It is known that he was quick to expose the shares of PT Kimia Farma Tbk (KAEF), PT Waskita Karya Tbk (WSKT), PT Perusahaan Gas Negara Tbk (PGAS), and most recently PT Vale Indonesia (Tbk).
The IDX Corporate Secretary Yulianto Aji Sadono, when confirmed by VOI, Thursday, January 7, said that currently his party is still collecting data on who the influencers will be called to come to discuss.
"Currently, the IDX is collecting data on influencers who will be invited to the discussion later. So no one will confirm their attendance. We have yet to determine the timing itself," said Aji.
Aji said the IDX meeting with influencers was in the context of education. This, said Aji, is a routine activity to increase capital market literacy and inclusion through social media.
Previously, IDX Director of Trade and Member Assessment Laksono Widodo when confirmed by VOI, Tuesday, January 5, said that his party would invite Raffi and Ari Lasso to discuss their actions in recommending shares of one of the issuers.
He actually welcomed Raffi and Ari's initiative to invite people to invest. However, he reminded the two public figures that they have a big moral responsibility as influencers.
"But it also needs to remind them of their moral responsibility for their followers and the potential for potential lawsuits from their followers if anyone can be disappointed," said Laksono.
Meanwhile, when asked about other public figures, in this case Kaesang Pangarep, Laksono said, the same was true for President Jokowi's youngest son. According to him, Kaesang will also be invited to discuss the recommendations of Sangmology, which has become his jargon on Twitter.
"Invitation to discussion applies to all influencers," said Laksono.
