JAKARTA - The Indonesian Stock Exchange (BEI) noted that until November 2023 there were 11.9 million single investor identities (SID).

BEI Main Director, Iman Rachman said, this number is the result of educational activities that are intensively carried out from time to time.

"With easier access to the latest information, it will further increase trust in the capital market. It is hoped that this information can increase capital market liquidity and the number of investors," he said in his speech at the Opening of the 2023 Live Public Expose.

To increase investor confidence, he said, IDX is also holding a Public Expose Live 2023 which will be attended by 46 listed companies. He believes this public expose can be the right forum for listed companies to interact directly with each other and share information on the IDX. In this way, investor confidence in the Indonesian capital market, especially in listed companies participating in Pubex, can increase.

Present on the same occasion, Head of the Capital Market Licensing Department of the Financial Services Authority (OJK) Luthfy Zain Fuady said that throughout 2023 there would be an increase in the number of new issuers listed on the IDX compared to 2022.

In 2022 the number of new issuers will be recorded at 65 issuers, while in 2023, until November 2023 there will be 70 new issuers

"In terms of quantity, there is an increase compared to 2022. But in terms of emission value, there is an increase," he said.

He detailed that the share issuance value in 2022 was recorded at IDR 33.01 trillion, while in 2023, as of November, it had reached IDR 52.78 trillion.

"Similarly, with the issuance of securities in the form of debt and sukuk, additional capital is provided for the right to issue securities first. However, in total, in 2023 there will likely be a slight decrease from 2022, where as of today the total new issuance value is IDR 226 trillion compared to last year's IDR 267 trillion," he said.

He hopes that in the last month of 2023, there will be an increase so that it can exceed the 2022 achievement.
