The Financial Services Authority (OJK) is developing the National Fraud Portal under the Indonesia Anti-Scam Centre (IASC). The platform is being set up as an integrated system to support faster and coordinated handling of fraud cases.

Dicky Kartikoyono, Executive Head of Financial Services Business Conduct, Education, and Consumer Protection at OJK, said the system will facilitate report collection. It will also support information exchange and transaction tracing for suspected fraud cases. The portal is aimed at speeding up identification and follow-up processes, as well as strengthening collaboration to protect the public from losses due to illegal financial activities.

Dicky stated that OJK is currently coordinating with various stakeholders to develop the platform. “This process includes aligning governance aspects, operational readiness, and required data integration to ensure the system operates effectively,” he said on Sunday, 24 May 2026.

Dicky stressed that OJK, through IASC, continues to strengthen synergy and collaboration with relevant industries. The collaboration also includes the telecommunications industry to optimise the handling of public complaints. The majority of complaints came from illegal online loans, with 11,753 reports. Additionally, OJK received 2,379 complaints regarding illegal investments and 100 related to illegal pawnbroking.
