        "summary": "The Jakarta Composite Index (IHSG) has strengthened recently, signalling growing investor confidence in Indonesia's capital market reforms amid global uncertainties. OJK has introduced policies such as increasing the minimum free float to 15 per cent and enhancing shareholder data transparency to address market concerns. Analysts note that FTSE Russell's continued classification of Indonesia as a secondary emerging market underscores global trust, potentially paving the way for improved market status and sustained investment interest.",
        "content": "<p>The strengthening of the Composite Stock Price Index (IHSG) in recent\ndays is viewed as a positive signal of increasing investor confidence in\nthe direction of Indonesia\u2019s capital market reforms. Amid global\nuncertainties, this trend reflects a progressively constructive market\nresponse to various policies rolled out by the regulator. On Tuesday\u2019s\ntrading session (14\/4\/2026), the IHSG rose 1.91 per cent to 7,642 in the\nmorning session. With this achievement, the strengthening trend of the\nbenchmark index of the Indonesia Stock Exchange (BEI) continues over the\npast few days. Moreover, domestic stock movements are deemed to be\nheading towards higher transparency levels and increasingly aligned with\nglobal standards. OJK Commissioner Chairman Friderica Widyasari Dewi\nstated that several new policies have been designed to address market\nplayers\u2019 concerns, including those from global index providers. These\nsteps include raising the minimum free float limit from 7.5 per cent to\n15 per cent, disclosing shareholder data for holdings above 1 per cent,\nand the obligation to report Ultimate Beneficial Owners (UBO). Senior\nMarket Chartist Nafan Aji Gusta views the positive market response as\ninseparable from the consistency of reforms implemented by the\nregulator. He cited FTSE Russell\u2019s decision to maintain Indonesia in the\nsecondary emerging market category as an indicator of global confidence.\n\u201cFTSE Russell itself continues to place Indonesia in the secondary\nemerging market. This is a strategic step showing global investor\nconfidence in our capital market,\u201d Nafan said in his statement on\nTuesday (14\/4\/2026). If the designed policies can be implemented\nsustainably, market transparency will increase further and ultimately\nstrengthen global investor interest. He also emphasised that this\nsituation is crucial to maintaining Indonesia\u2019s position at the emerging\nmarket level, even opening opportunities for status upgrades in the\nfuture. \u201cOur IHSG has begun to experience strengthening amid global\nuncertainties. This shows that the market is responding positively to\nthe existing policy direction,\u201d he added.<\/p>",
