BEI Leak: 12 Companies Lining Up for IPO, Majority of Giants Ready to List in 2026

Important information for investors seeking new shares on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (BEI). There are a dozen companies set to offer their initial shares on the BEI in 2026. The BEI has noted that 12 companies are currently in the queue for initial public offerings (IPOs). Of these, the majority are companies with large-scale assets. This indicates the potential vibrancy of Indonesia’s capital markets heading into 2026. Majority of Issuers with Jumbo Assets BEI’s Director of Company Valuation, I Gede Nyoman Yetna, revealed that 11 of the 12 prospective issuers have assets above Rp 250 billion. Meanwhile, only one company falls into the medium-asset category with a value between Rp 50 billion and Rp 250 billion. “There are 11 large-scale asset companies and one medium-scale asset company,” he stated. The 12 prospective issuers come from various industrial sectors, detailed as follows: - 3 companies in the consumer non-cyclicals sector - 2 companies in the healthcare sector - 2 companies in the infrastructure sector - 2 companies in the technology sector - 1 company in the energy sector - 1 company in the financials sector - 1 company in the transportation and logistics sector This composition shows that IPO interest is not limited to one sector but is spread across various business lines. The President Director of Mandiri Sekuritas, Oki Ramadhana, assessed that companies’ interest in entering the capital markets continues to rise. Currently, Mandiri Sekuritas is monitoring around four to five companies that have the potential to list on the exchange in the near future. According to him, this number is still in the early stages and could increase over time. “At least there are four to five companies that we are monitoring and are likely to enter the capital markets,” he said. IPO Pipeline Predicted to Grow Oki is optimistic that the 2026 IPO market will be busier than previous years. This is because the current list of monitored companies comes from just one underwriter. If combined with the pipeline from other securities companies, the number of prospective issuers is estimated to be much larger. This opens opportunities for investors to access more new share options in the capital markets. Conclusion The queue of 12 companies for IPOs at the BEI serves as a positive signal for Indonesia’s capital markets. The dominance of large-asset companies demonstrates high confidence from business players in the economic conditions. With the potential addition of issuers from various underwriters, the 2026 IPO market is predicted to be even busier and more attractive to investors.
