Jakarta · Institutional financing against IDX-listed equity

Borrow against your IDX-listed shares.

An Indonesia stock loan turns a concentrated holding into liquidity — without selling, without surrendering ownership, and without leaving the register.

01 · The instrument
Pledge, not sale

What an Indonesia stock loan actually is.

A stock loan is a financing secured by a pledge of your IDX-listed shares. You draw cash against the value of the holding while the shares remain yours — and you recover them in full when the loan is repaid.

The mechanics are simple to state. You pledge listed shares as collateral, capital is advanced against an agreed loan-to-value, and the position is held under documented custody for the term. Throughout, you keep beneficial ownership of the shares, the full economic upside of the position, and — depending on how the structure is built — your dividend entitlement and your vote.

When the loan matures and is repaid, the pledge is released and the shares return to you, unchanged. The transaction leaves no permanent mark on your holding.

A sale ends your relationship with the company. A stock loan simply borrows against it for a while.

Sale vs. pledge

The contrast with an outright disposal is the whole point. Selling realises cash but permanently removes you from the position — forfeiting the upside, potentially triggering tax, disclosure, and control consequences, and signalling to the market. A stock loan extracts only the capital you need and preserves everything else. To weigh it against a sale, brokerage margin, and a repo side by side, see liquidity options compared.

03 · Key terms
Structured per transaction

The terms that shape an Indonesian stock loan.

No two listed positions are alike, so terms are structured around the specific ticker rather than quoted from a rate card. The framework below is indicative.

ALoan-to-value

Indicative LTV

Varies with the liquidity, volatility, free float, and concentration of the underlying share. A figure is issued only after review of the specific holding. Try the illustrative LTV calculator.

BTenor

12–36 months

Typical terms run from one to three years, with renewal and early-repayment mechanics agreed in the documentation.

CInterest

Fixed or floating

Interest may be fixed or floating, and either serviced periodically or rolled into the structure for the life of the loan.

DRecourse

Recourse profile

Non-recourse, limited-recourse, or full-recourse, depending on the structure and the collateral. See recourse profiles in Indonesia.

EEligible collateral

IDX Main & Dev Board

Shares listed on the Main Board and selected Development Board counters, including holdings in sectors subject to foreign-ownership limits.

FMinimum size

From IDR 15B

Transactions are typically structured for positions valued from IDR 15 billion upward, with no defined upper bound.

04 · Mechanics
Custodian-held collateral · custody · corporate actions

How the pledge works in Indonesia.

An IDX position is not generic collateral. Scripless settlement, KSEI custody, and corporate-action handling all sit at the centre of how a stock loan is built.

  • 01
    Custodian-held collateral. The borrower opens an account with the designated custodian, over which the lender takes security; the collateral shares are held in that account, in scripless, book-entry form, with beneficial ownership preserved.
  • 02
    Custody fits the structure. Custody arrangements are matched to the agreed structure and recourse profile, with the collateral held in a manner appropriate to both.
  • 03
    Margin & top-up, documented up front. Any margin maintenance and top-up mechanics are defined at the outset, so the rules of the term are clear before funding.
  • 04
    Corporate actions & dividends. Treatment of dividends, rights, and other corporate actions is set out in the documentation and aligned to how the position is structured.
05 · How it works
From enquiry to funding

From first conversation to capital in hand.

Five clear stages, a senior principal at every one of them, and your ownership of the position left undisturbed throughout.

1Stage one

Confidential enquiry

You share the high-level details — the ticker, the approximate size, and your objective. An NDA is available on request before anything is disclosed.

2Stage two

Indicative terms

A principal reviews the position and returns a preliminary structure and indicative LTV, typically within 2–3 business days.

3Stage three

Documentation

Loan, pledge, and custody agreements, with KYC and source-of-funds checks, reviewed by your Indonesian counsel.

4Stage four

Pledge & custody

The borrower opens an account with the designated custodian, over which the lender takes security; the collateral shares are held in that account, with beneficial ownership preserved.

5Stage five

Funding & stewardship

Capital is released on agreed timelines, with one principal as your point of contact for the life of the loan.

Indicative terms typically follow within 2–3 business days; full execution usually completes in 2–4 weeks, with your counsel engaged in parallel throughout.

06 · Disclosure
Your counsel, engaged in parallel

Disclosure is a matter for your own counsel.

We arrange and introduce — your own counsel handles disclosure and regulation.

Any disclosure or regulatory obligations are a matter for your own Indonesian legal counsel, engaged in parallel; we act as arranger and introducer and do not provide legal or regulatory advice.

We are happy to coordinate with the advisers you appoint so that the financing and your own compliance workstream move in step, but the assessment of what applies to your position — and any filing — remains theirs.

Nothing on this page is legal or regulatory advice. Specific obligations are confirmed with your Indonesian counsel as part of each transaction.

07 · FAQ
Common questions

Stock loans in Indonesia, answered.

01What is an Indonesia stock loan?
An Indonesia stock loan is financing secured by a pledge of shares listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX / Bursa Efek Indonesia). You pledge listed shares as collateral to draw cash, while keeping beneficial ownership, the full economic upside, and — subject to structuring — your dividends and your vote. On repayment, the pledge is released and the shares return to you in full. Unlike an outright sale, the position is never given up.
02Who is a stock loan for?
Typical borrowers are founders and controlling shareholders of IDX-listed companies, major individual shareholders, family holding companies, listed corporates with treasury or strategic equity, and pre-IPO or lock-up holders who need interim liquidity before they are free to sell. The common thread is a meaningful, long-term Indonesian-listed position the holder would rather keep than unwind.
03What LTV, tenor, and interest apply?
Indicative LTV varies with the liquidity, volatility, free float, and concentration of the specific share, and is issued only after review of the actual holding. Tenors are typically 12 to 36 months. Interest may be fixed or floating, and either serviced periodically or rolled into the structure. Recourse can be non-recourse, limited, or full, depending on the structure and collateral.
04Which Indonesian shares are eligible as collateral?
Eligibility is assessed case by case across IDX Main Board and selected Development Board equities. Relevant factors include free float, average daily trading value, market capitalisation, sector, and shareholder concentration, as well as any foreign-ownership limit applying to the counter. Transactions are typically structured from IDR 15 billion upward.
05How is the pledge held and what about dividends?
The borrower opens an account with the designated custodian, over which the lender takes security; the collateral shares are held in that account, with beneficial ownership preserved. You remain the beneficial owner throughout the term — the security comes from the lender's rights over the account, not from transferring the shares away. Margin and top-up mechanics, the treatment of corporate actions, and dividend handling are all documented before funding, so the terms of the position are clear for the life of the loan.
06Does pledging my shares trigger disclosure to OJK?
Any disclosure or regulatory obligations are a matter for your own Indonesian legal counsel, engaged in parallel; we act as arranger and introducer and do not provide legal or regulatory advice.
