ELUCIDATION OF BANK INDONESIA REGULATION NUMBER 21/6/PBI/2019 ON THE THIRD AMENDMENT TO BANK INDONESIA REGULATION NUMBER 20/5/PBI/2018 ON MONETARY OPERATION I. GENERAL To strengthen Monetary Operation framework, Bank Indonesia has issued Sukuk Bank Indonesia as one of the Monetary Operation instruments under sharia principles. To support implementation of Monetary Operation under sharia principles, it is necessary to expand underlying assets not only by using SBSN but also by incorporating global sukuk owned by Bank Indonesia as the underlying asset of Sukuk Bank Indonesia. In addition, implementation of monetary operation under sharia principles is consistently improved to strengthen the basis for monetary operation transactions, and therefore, improvement is made on the contract for Sharia Deposit Facility of Bank Indonesia (FASBIS), which initially has used wadi’ah contract but now it uses ju’alah according to the opinion of the National Sharia Board – Indonesian Ulema Council (DSN-MUI). In connection therewith, it is necessary to make the third amendment to Bank Indonesia Regulation Number 20/5/PBI/2018 on Monetary Operation.
