This acceleration is also ICDX's effort to support the government in fixing the PBK industry, which at the beginning of this year faced several issues that had an impact on the PBK industry players.

In line with ICDX's commitment to increase multilateral transactions, Plt. Head of BAPPEBTI, Ministry of Trade, Didid Noordiatmoko on the same occasion explained, "As a PBK regulator, we will implement PBK based on Good Governance, where BAPPEBTI will protect the public, make the Commodity Futures Exchange as a reference for world prices, make the Alternative Trading System (SPA) ) a fair trade, and encourage PBK business actors to maintain integrity.”
