Jakarta. The Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) is targeting an Average Daily Transaction Value (ADTV) of Rp 13.5 trillion ($863.16 million) and aiming to add 2 million new investors in 2025, according to Corporate Secretary Kautsar Primadi Nurahmad.

This growth is expected amid a backdrop of declining global inflation, lower interest rates, and stable economic policies under Indonesia’s new government.

Currently, the ADTV has reached Rp 12.94 trillion, reflecting a 20.43 percent increase from the end of 2023, when it stood at Rp 10.75 trillion.

In addition to the ADTV goal, IDX plans to list 407 new securities, including stocks, bonds, and various financial instruments such as Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs), Real Estate Investment Funds (DIRE), Infrastructure Investment Funds (DINFRA), and Asset-Backed Securities (EBA).

"The introduction of new products, including structured warrants, is also expected to attract more participants to the capital market," Kautsar said in a statement on Wednesday.

As of Oct. 18, the total number of investors in the Indonesian capital market has already grown to 14.2 million, an increase of more than 2 million investors from 2023.

"IDX aims to build on this momentum by attracting 2 million more investors in 2025, reflecting the growing potential of the retail investor segment in the country," Kautsar said.

IDX also plans to upgrade its Trading and Impact Systems to provide a faster and more stable platform. These upgrades, alongside routine technological updates every six years, will incorporate low-latency technology.

Financial projections for 2025 suggest a 9.01 percent rise in revenue to Rp 1.78 trillion, with net profit expected to increase by 1.53 percent to Rp 275.02 billion. Despite higher capital expenditure, IDX maintains strong liquidity, with total cash and financial assets projected to exceed Rp 3.1 trillion. The exchange’s assets are forecasted to reach Rp 7 trillion, with equity surpassing IDR 6 trillion.

Throughout 2024, IDX has recorded several milestones. The Jakarta Composite Index (JCI) reached 7,760.06 on Oct. 18, 2024, marking a 6.7 percent increase from the close of 2023. Market capitalization also grew, hitting Rp 12,967 trillion, up 11 percent from the previous year. On Sept. 19, 2024, the JCI hit a record high of 7,905.30, and market capitalization reached Rp 13,475 trillion.

New listings continue to increase, with 36 companies listed as of October 18, 2024, bringing the total number of listed companies to 938. Bond trading through the SPPA saw average daily transactions reach Rp 993 billion, a 44.7 percent increase from the end of 2023.
