Jakarta, CNBC Indonesia – The Investment Alert Task Force (SWF) is one of the illegal investment modalities that are usually carried out by institutions that are known to the public in a massive way, but that have not been regulated by the regulator so that they take advantage of this condition to commit infractions and cause great public losses.
SWF President Tongam L. Tobing said that this was recently done by PT Jouska Finansial Indonesia, aka Jouska, who has a license to operate as a financial planner. Public attention to Jouska was misused until finally this company and its affiliates carried out capital market activities without permission, also known as illegal.
“Then there are the investment advisory activities without permits. This is very prevalent today. So this financial planner is booming because there is no regulation. They say that there is an association that regulates or supervises its members. We will show that there is a name called Jouska, ”Tongam said at the Capital Market Summit & Expo 2020 event that took place virtually on Thursday (10/22/2020).
He explained that Jouska not only carried out financial planning activities, but together with two affiliated companies PT Mahesa Strategis Indonesia and PT Amarta Investa Indonesia carried out investment management activities without permission.
“This is very dangerous. So Jouska is taking advantage of his big name, there are a lot of followers on IG, there are a lot of millennials there, but Jouska’s misuse of his beliefs is that Jouska’s activities are certainly illegal activities,” he said.
Tongam assessed that Jouska’s move was not only illegal without a license, but also an act that violated the law. Although the activities developed by Jouska were originally part of digital financial innovation.
For this reason, he continued, financial planning activities, especially those that are carried out digitally, must be regulated and registered with the Financial Services Authority (OJK) because these activities are closely related to investment activities carried out in the market. of capitals.
“It is necessary to regulate and monitor the activities of this financial planner so that it does not harm the community,” he concluded.
