The Commodity Futures Trading Regulatory Agency (Bappebti) has released its periodic rankings of 67 active futures brokerage firms in Indonesia for the January–March 2_026 period. This independent indicator serves as a crucial reference for the public to assess compliance levels, financial stability, internal processes, and customer protection for each brokerage firm.

In the latest assessment, PT Finex Berjangka (Finex) successfully maintained its highest distinction with an A+++ rating. Achieving this maximum score marks the company’s success in holding the top position for eight consecutive periods.

Finex CEO, Agung Wisnuaji, asserted that the metrics released by the regulator are tangible evidence of the company’s long-term commitment to implementing accountable and transparent business governance within the national trading industry.

“This rating is not merely a corporate achievement. It reflects our consistent work in maintaining governance, compliance, and service quality. For us, trader confidence must be built through a transparent and sustainable process,” Agung stated in a written release on Tuesday (23/06/2026).

In addition to maintaining solid regulatory compliance, Agung revealed that the company’s business growth is directly proportional to market transaction activity. According to internal data, Finex has recorded the highest trading volume on the Jakarta Futures Exchange (JFX) in recent months.

He noted that this volume achievement is driven by a shift in the perspective of retail investors, who are now far more selective in choosing platforms for fund placement. Modern traders are deemed to prioritise legality and operational security over being enticed by instant bonuses or promotions.

“Our focus is not only to provide trading access but also to provide services, education, and transparency that help traders make more responsible decisions—in line with the mission of regulators such as Bappebti, OJK, and Bank Indonesia in strengthening consumer protection,” Agung continued.

Entering its 13th year of operation in Indonesia, Finex encourages the national futures trading industry to become more mature in educating the public. Choosing a brokerage firm should be based on a track record of legal compliance, rather than visual features or promises of risk-free profits.

Agung emphasised that fulfilling all regulatory aspects does not automatically eliminate the inherent risks of the trading instruments themselves. However, strict standardisation from Bappeblar is considered capable of creating a healthy and fair market ecosystem.

According to Agung, the primary goal of the industry today is to ensure that market participants or retail investors truly understand market movement mechanisms and the risks they face before opening transaction positions.

“It is a slower way to grow. But perhaps, it is the only way to grow sustainably,” he concluded.
