Disclosure Requirements
:
Shareholdings in this market may be required to be disclosed by the beneficial owner, particularly when such shareholdings reach or exceed prescribed disclosure limits. Investors must ensure that they comply in full by reporting such holdings to the appropriate organizations, within the specified time-frame. If you have any questions regarding this issue we encourage you to consult your legal counsel.

Failure to comply with the reporting requirements in this market may lead to penalties and / or other sanctions.

Ownership of a registered holding which reaches or exceeds 5% of the listed capital of a company, must be reported to BAPEPAM-LK within 10 days of the transaction. If 25% or more of the share capital is intended to be purchased, then the purchaser may be required to tender for the remaining equity or receive a waiver from BAPEPAM-LK. For a banking sector stock, prior approval from Bank Indonesia is required before obtaining 25% interests or more.

Buy-Ins
There is no buy-in procedure for physical equities as they can only be traded off the exchange, whereby the settlement of securities and cash is conducted directly between the buying and selling broker.

Under the scripless market environment, KPEI imposes a penalty system called "Alternate Cash Settlement (ACS)" whereby the selling party who fails to deliver stocks on SD is obliged to compensate the buying party with cash on the same day. The ACS amount is 125% of the highest market value of the shares from T+0 toT+3. Failing to meet the above obligation will result in immediate trading suspension by the JSX. KPEI will in turn use the guarantee funds to cover the ‘short’ cash position and substitute the relevant buying broker.

Brokers, who are aware that they will have insufficient stock holdings to meet their obligations on T+3, have the option to try buying the stocks from the cash market in the morning of settlement date (with settlement on T+0). KPEI will net off the broker’s position as of SD from the two markets (regular and cash).

Buying brokers with insufficient cash to meet their obligations on T+3 will be suspended. KPEI will use the guarantee funds (or use credit facilities from bank, as appropriate) to cover the obligations. Before suspending the broker, KPEI will check whether the broker has other collateral including offline collateral, such as time deposits, bank guarantees etc, which are pledges to KPEI. In the event that a broker is continuously unable to settle its obligations, all their assets including offline and online (cash and securities) collaterals will be sold out, and the proceeds will be used to replenish the guarantee funds.

Charges:
For dematerialized shares, the PT KPEI levies a penalty of 125% of the highest market valuation between T and T+3 on the failing broker. Failure to pay this fine results in suspension. KPEI will in turn use the guarantee funds to cover the "short" cash position and substitute the relevant buying broker.

Compensation Fund
PT KPEI provides the Guarantee Fund for scripless equity trades. The Clearing Fund and Guarantee Fund are used to compensate the selling broker in cases where obligations cannot be met by the buying broker.
