Are There USD (US Dollar) Mutual Funds on Pluang?
Yes, USD mutual funds are available on Pluang. As of September 2026, the mutual fund range on Pluang includes several USD-denominated (US dollar) mutual funds alongside rupiah funds. Examples include Batavia Global ESG Sharia Equity USD, Bahana US Opportunity Sharia Equity USD, Eastspring Syariah Equity Islamic Asia Pacific USD Kelas A and Eastspring Syariah Greater China Equity USD Kelas A, all four of them sharia equity funds by name. A USD mutual fund's units are denominated in US dollars, so measured in rupiah, its value moves with both its investments and the US dollar to rupiah exchange rate. The main difference on Pluang is switching: USD mutual funds cannot be switched yet, so to move out of one you sell it rather than switch it into another fund. Like every mutual fund on Pluang, a USD fund requires Indonesian Asset Verification, and its returns are not guaranteed. The line-up can change, so check the Pluang app for the current list, and read each fund's Prospectus before you buy.

- Switching: Not available for any USD mutual fund yet. To move to another fund, sell the USD fund and buy the new fund as two separate transactions.
- Before you buy: Complete Indonesian Asset Verification (Account → Identity Verification → Indonesian Asset Verification). Then use the search in the Pluang app to find the fund on the Mutual Fund page, open its asset page, which shows its Product Type, Risk Level and AUM, and read its Prospectus and Fund Fact Sheet at the bottom of the page.
- App only: Mutual funds, including USD funds, can be bought and sold only in the Pluang app, not on Web Trading or through Agentic Trading.

Q: How does the exchange rate affect a USD mutual fund?
Because the fund's units are denominated in US dollars, their value in rupiah depends on the US dollar to rupiah rate as well as on the fund's own performance. A stronger US dollar raises the rupiah value of your units, and a weaker one lowers it, even if the fund's NAB per unit has not changed. This exchange-rate risk comes on top of the market risk of the fund's investments.
