Indonesia's OJK Forms Task Force to Regulate Future Mineral and Strategic Commodities Exchange
Indonesia's Financial Services Authority (OJK) has created a dedicated task force, Satgas BMKS (Satuan Tugas Persiapan Pengaturan dan Pengawasan Bursa Mineral dan Komoditas Strategis), to design the regulatory and supervisory framework for a new mineral and strategic‑commodities exchange. The task force will draft rules, allocate budgets, develop IT systems, train staff and set up the organisational structure needed for the exchange, which is slated to begin operations on 1 January 2027.
The initiative follows the amendment of Law No. 4/2026 (UU P2SK), which expands OJK’s authority to oversee such a market. The formation was announced by OJK Board of Commissioners member Friderica Widyasari Dewi at a press conference, emphasizing that the task force will ensure all necessary infrastructure and regulations are in place before the exchange becomes operational.
