Deputy Investment Minister Introduces 'Fictive Positive' System for Business Licensing
Deputy Minister of Investment and Downstreaming/Deputy Head of the Investment Coordinating Board (BKPM) Todotua Pasaribu has introduced the Fictive Positive (FikPos) system within the Risk-Based Online Single Submission (OSS) business licensing framework.
The policy has been in effect since early June 2025 and was presented during the Second Wave Regional Leadership Orientation for regional heads and deputy heads at IPDN Jatinangor, Sumedang Regency, on Wednesday (25/6).
Fictive Positive is a mechanism stipulating that if a licensing application meeting all requirements receives no response within the period specified by the Service Level Agreement (SLA), the application is automatically deemed approved and legally valid.
The innovation has been introduced to drive bureaucratic reform, particularly in improving the efficiency and transparency of licensing services.
In his presentation, Todotua emphasised the important role of regional governments in accelerating investment to support economic growth. He noted that successful investment management depends heavily on synergy between central and regional governments, particularly through the Regional Investment and One-Stop Integrated Services Office (DPMPTSP).
"This forum is a moment we have been looking forward to, as it provides an opportunity to meet directly with regional heads who play a crucial role in investment," said Deputy Minister Todotua.
Todotua also opened a consultation channel for regions facing challenges in attracting investment.
