OJK Board Member Candidate Friderica Widyasari Outlines 8 Priorities to Strengthen Financial Services Sector
Jakarta – Friderica Widyasari, a candidate member of the Financial Services Authority (OJK) Board of Commissioners, has unveiled eight priority policies as a strategic framework for strengthening Indonesia’s financial services sector.
The policies were presented by Widyasari, commonly known as “Kiki”, during her fit and proper test conducted by Commission XI of the House of Representatives on Wednesday, 11 March 2026.
“Through these eight policies, we want to ensure that the financial services sector is not only stable, but also trustworthy, inclusive, and contributes to supporting national economic development,” Widyasari said.
The eight policies she outlined are: maintaining financial sector stability, restoring public confidence, promoting a financial services sector that contributes to national economic development, strengthening integrated supervision, accelerating market deepening, protecting consumers and society, reinforcing OJK’s institutional capacity and internal operations, and strengthening coordination with ministries, agencies, and other stakeholders.
“All of this aims to achieve a financial services sector that is stable, trustworthy, inclusive, and contributes to supporting national economic development for Indonesia’s advancement towards the Golden Indonesia 2045,” Widyasari stated.
Whilst the financial services sector demonstrates strong resilience, Widyasari warned of various strategic challenges that must be anticipated going forward, both globally and domestically. The eight policies are expected to address these challenges comprehensively.
She explained that maintaining financial system stability serves as the primary anchor for OJK policy. Stability maintenance is conducted through close coordination with members of the Financial System Stability Committee (KSSK), continually strengthened through data sharing policies, policy coordination, crisis preparedness, and early warning systems.
Additionally, OJK will continue to strengthen the capital structure of financial institutions, improve risk management, and enhance information technology and cybersecurity. “However, we understand that at present, one issue that is prominent and must be addressed immediately is how to restore public confidence. Through integrity, transparency, and firm law enforcement, we will restore public confidence, particularly in the capital market sector,” Widyasari said.
