Quoted from the IDX website, SSF is a financial derivative product that allows both parties to buy and sell shares but at previously agreed prices and within a certain period of time. The existing agreement is in the form of a contract.

The contracts in SSF transactions are divided into two, namely a sale contract (short) and a purchase contract (long). Investors short will receive profits when the price of the sot drops because previously investors had locked the selling price (matched price) which was higher than the market price (spot price).

Meanwhile, long investment will be able to profit when the spot price has increased because investors have locked the purchase price (matched price) which is lower than the price in the market (spot price) which is high.

As explained, SSF prepares derivative products whose value depends on the performance of other assets or the value of the underlying assets (underlying). Meanwhile, SSF is the basis of the shares.

SSF products have generally been around for a long time. Even on stock exchanges outside other countries, SSFs have existed since the 1980s. Even SSF is quite popular in trading on many exchanges such as in Hong Kong, India, South Korea, Russia, Thailand, and much more.

There are several benefits of SSF, for example, in terms of ease of trading mechanisms. In addition, other benefits are a means of protecting value, increasing liquidity and efficiency of the underlying market, to becoming a means of good management profit during bullish and bearish market conditions.

Head of the IDX's 1 Business Development Division, Firza Rizqi Putra, explained that the way to register as an SSF investor is very easy, not even much different from how to register as a stock investor. However, prospective SSF investors are required to open an account on exchange (AB) members who have received a derivative license.

"So if AB there will be SID, RDN, sub-rekening effects and derivative securities. All of them use the same ecosystem on the Indonesia Stock Exchange, KSP and also KSEI," he explained when giving an explanation to reporters, Friday, April 15.

The conclusion is that there is no difference in opening accounts or completing derivative products. However, in registration it is mandatory through stock exchange members who have a license for derivative exchange members.
