Related questions:
Q: Is Pluang's gold regulated by OJK or by Bappebti?
By Bappebti, through PT Pluang Emas Sejahtera. Bappebti governs digital physical gold trading in Indonesia, and PT PES holds its Digital Physical Gold Trader licence. Other Pluang products, such as crypto, US stocks and Indonesian stocks, are supervised by OJK through their own licensed companies.
Q: What does ICH do in my gold transaction?
Indonesia Clearing House clears each recorded gold transaction, so the trade settles as recorded rather than depending on Pluang alone. With ICDX recording every transaction, this keeps an independent record of what you own. ICH also appoints and licenses the gold depository together with PT ICDX Logistik Berikat (ILB).
Q: Is my gold recorded on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX)?
No. Gold is a commodity, so it is recorded at ICDX, the commodity and derivatives exchange, and cleared by ICH. The Indonesia Stock Exchange handles listed shares and has no role in Pluang Gold, which is a balance of physical gold held for you in grams.
Q: Does PT Pluang Emas Sejahtera store my gold itself?
No. PT PES facilitates the product, but the physical gold is stored in a depository owned by Brink's, which ICH and ILB appoint and license. All the gold is fully insured and stored by Brink's.
