JFX  History

Jakarta  Futures Exchange (JFX)  or PT. Bursa Berjangka Jakarta  is the first commodity exchange in Indonesia established under the  Indonesian law No.32 /1997. PT. Bursa Berjangka Jakarta was established on August 19, 1999 by 4 palm plantations, 7 refineries, 8 coffee exporter, 8 securities companies and 2 general traders. Of the 40 billion capital authorized, capital paid-up was Rp. 11.6 billion. PT  Bursa Berjangka Jakarta or better known now  as Jakarta Futures Exchange (JFX) met all the requirements stipulated in the Law No.32/1997 and received a business license from the Coftra, Bappebti, in the mid of 2000.
Initially JFX traded contracts on olein and robusta coffee, later expanding its scope to gold as well as crude palm oil in 2001. In the 2002 JFX decided to terminated the trade of CPO and robusta coffee contracts due to scarcity of demand. The new contract which is successfully marked is the cocoa contract. JFX has also developed the JFX Syaria which is the first Islamic-based commodity trading in Indonesia. In December 2013 JFX launched new products which consist of Arabica and Robusta coffee Contracts, Rubber Physical Market, and Periodic Rolling Gold contract.
 

JFX Operation

The primary function of JFX is to provide the facilities for members to meet and transact in futures contract market. Prices are determined via an electronic method, through the efficient interaction of demand and supply in a trading system. Bids to buy, and offers to sell, are entered in a computer trading system and are continuously matched by the system. This continuous auction system ensures competitive pricing within a fair and safe marketplace.
It is envisaged that at a later stage, entry into the Exchange Trading System can be done remotely from the members' offices.
 

Market Safeguards

JFX has many safeguards of high standards to protect the integrity of the markets. They are as follows:

 

i) The Clearing House

In protecting the financial integrity of the marketplace, JFX together with its Clearing House, the PT Kliring Berjangka Indonesia(Persero) ("KBI"), adopts a financial and operational safeguard system that is comparable to the best international practices. This system is designed to provide the highest level of safety with very early detection of unsound practices on the part of any Member. Protection against market defaults is imperative and remains the ultimate goal of the clearing system.

 

ii) The Audit, & Surveillance (A&S) Division

The ACS division has the overall responsibility of upholding the integrity of JFX futures markets. The division carries out a wide range of duties through its carefully selected and competent audit staff which include daily and regular monitoring of the market and Members, regular visits to Members' offices for field audits and monitoring of the activities on the trading Floor of the Exchange.

 

iii) Legal and Membership Division

vi) Segregation of Clients' Funds

 
Members are required to maintain a separate bank account for all clients' funds. Clients' funds cannot be withdrawn from the segregated account except for the purposes of payment of deposits and margins, payment of debits due to the member from the client, and monies drawn on client authority.
