JAKARTA - The Financial Services Authority (OJK) and the Ministry of Environment and Forestry (KLHK) have agreed to expand cooperation and coordinate the implementation of tasks and functions of both parties in the field of sustainable finance regarding the implementation of Carbon Economic Values.
Chairman of the OJK Board of Commissioners Mahendra Siregar said the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) became the basis for law on exchange and the use of carbon trading data through SRN-PPI (National Registry System for Climate Change Control) so that it can be carried out in accordance with applicable standards and procedures.
"This is an important step to be more prepared to welcome the existence of the Indonesian carbon exchange (market)," he said in a written statement today, Wednesday, July 19.
Menurut Mahendra, otoritas bersama pemerintah akan memiliki ruang yang semakin besar untuk melakukan eksekusi di lapangan.
"OJK synergizes with the government in the fields of human resources, exchanging information, promotion, socialization or roadshows to various places in the country, as well as abroad so that people can be further educated," he said.
On the same occasion, Minister of Environment and Forestry Siti Nurbaya Bakar welcomed the cooperation.
"This is clearly a very noble goal and function. But of course in its implementation there are very big challenges. I welcome this collaboration well and happily. May God bless our steps," said Siti.
