Jakarta — The Indonesian Stock Exchange (BEI) reports that the national capital market is starting to move, with seven companies entering the pipeline to conduct initial public offerings (IPOs). Of these, the majority are well-known corporations with large-scale assets, signaling potential strengthening of Indonesia’s stock market capitalization in the coming period.

Based on asset classification, the exchange’s authority notes six companies fall into the large-scale category, while one company is in the medium-scale category. This classification refers to the stringent regulations set by the Financial Services Authority (OJK) regarding the risk profile and financial capacity of issuers before they go public.

“Hingga saat ini, terdapat tujuh perusahaan dalam pipeline pencatatan saham BEI,” said BEI Corporate Valuation Director I Gede Nyoman Yetna, in a statement received in Jakarta on Saturday (7/3/2026).

Nyoman explained that the determination of a company’s scale is based on OJK Regulation POJK No. 53/POJK.04/2017. Under that regulation, companies with large-scale assets are required to have asset values above Rp250 billion, while medium-scale ranges from Rp50 billion to Rp250 billion.

From a sectoral perspective, this IPO queue shows a dynamic industry diversity. The financial sector dominates with three companies, followed by one company each from the transportation and logistics sector, primary consumer goods, energy, and health.

Although the pipeline is filling, BEI reported that from the start of the year until 6 March 2026, not a single company had officially undertaken a first public listing. Accordingly, the number of listed issuers on Indonesia’s capital market remains at 956 companies, the same as at the end of 2025.

In addition to equity instruments, fundraising activity in the capital market has also been lively through the issuance of Debt Securities and Sukuk (EBUS). Up to the same period, BEI had recorded 37 issues from 26 EBUS issuers with a total fundraising of a phenomenal Rp41.41 trillion.

“There are 20 issues from 13 EBUS issuers that are in the pipeline to issue EBUS,” Nyoman said regarding the funding prospects through debt instruments this year.

Not only IPOs and EBUS, corporate actions in the form of rights issues are starting to roll, with three companies having successfully executed such actions with a total value of Rp3.75 trillion.

In the upcoming queue, there is one company from the property sector scheduled to follow with a capital increase through a rights issue.

The readiness of a number of large companies to list on the exchange is expected to provide positive sentiment for Indonesia’s investment climate.

BEI is optimistic that the entry of these fundamentally strong companies will boost confidence among domestic and global investors, while strengthening Indonesia’s capital market position as a promising investment destination in the regional region.
