Indonesia’s principal equity venue, led by banking, telecoms and natural-resources issuers. Foreign-ownership ceilings in regulated sectors such as banking and mining bear directly on what can be pledged and how the structure is shaped.
On IDX a block is placed through the Negotiated Market, where Exchange Members report a price agreed by direct negotiation rather than one struck against the Regular Market’s auto-rejection band, and settlement runs trade-by-trade through KSEI without netting. The large IHSG, LQ45 and IDX30 names absorb size against real daily turnover; thinner Development and Acceleration Board lines are worked with more care. Where the transfer crosses 5% or shifts a substantial holding, OJK reporting follows, and in regulated sectors the foreign-ownership ceiling is confirmed before the line changes hands.
What qualifies on IDX.
IDX is an established but selective venue; we weigh eligibility against the stock’s liquidity, free float, and how concentrated the holding is.
For any given IDX position, our review looks at: free float and daily traded volume against the size of the transaction; your status (controlling shareholder, director, substantial shareholder) and the disclosure that follows; the issuer’s sector and listing segment; and what the transaction must do (LTV, tenor, currency, recourse, custody).
Framework cited on IDX.
The principal regulatory reference on IDX is OJK Regulation No. 60/POJK.04/2015. How it applies to any single transaction — reporting levels, step thresholds — turns on the underlying rules and national-law overlays, which we map against your contemplated transaction at the structuring stage alongside the counsel you appoint.

What Is a Block Trade, and How Does One Work?
A block trade is the off-market sale of a large line of listed shares at a negotiated price, executed bilaterally and printed under exchange rules to avoid moving the open market.
Read → Block TradesHow Do You Sell a Large Block of Shares Without Moving the Price?
A large block is sold without moving the price by taking it off the open order book — negotiating off-market at an agreed price, often with a liquidity provider taking the risk, and printing under exchange block rules.
Read → DisclosureDo Block Trades Have to Be Disclosed?
Often yes. Once a significant shareholder crosses a market’s substantial-holding threshold, a block sale is generally notifiable to the regulator within a set window, with thresholds varying by jurisdiction.
