The Financial Services Authority (OJK) plans to issue a regulation on currency hedging, the intention of which is to extend protection to investors in the stock market against any decline of the Rupiah. Chairman of the OJK Board of Commissioners Wimboh Santoso said they plan to repeal the 10% margin obligation for hedging transactions. The plan is one of a number of policies to be launched by OJK in an effort to support infrastructure sector financing this year.
