NUMBER 57 /POJK.04/2020
REGARDING
OFFERING OF SECURITIES THROUGH INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY-BASED CROWDFUNDING SERVICES
I. GENERAL
The development of Information Technology has also influenced the development of the financial services industry. The utilization of Information Technology has been carried out by business actors to obtain funding through the Capital Market through the organization of Crowdfunding Services for the offering of shares based on Information Technology (Equity Crowdfunding). Through these Crowdfunding Services, it is expected to broaden access to financing for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and new business actors (start-up companies) to obtain funding through the Capital Market. In its development, Equity Crowdfunding cannot meet the financing needs of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and new business actors (start-up companies) considering that the legal entity form underlying the establishment of SMEs is not entirely in the form of limited liability companies, so that Financial Services Authority Regulation Number 37/POJK.04/2018 regarding Crowdfunding Services through the Offering of Shares Based on Information Technology (Equity Crowdfunding) has not been utilized to the maximum extent by SMEs as one of the funding sources for SMEs. In relation to this matter, in order to broaden the scope of Issuers in Crowdfunding Services and broaden the scope of Crowdfunding Services so that it can include the offering of other securities besides equity securities in the form of shares, it is necessary to replace Financial Services Authority Regulation Number 37/POJK.04/2018 regarding Crowdfunding Services through the Offering of Shares Based on Information Technology (Equity Crowdfunding). Based on the background above, in order to broaden access to financing for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and new business actors (start-up companies) through fundraising through Crowdfunding Services, it is necessary to issue a Financial Services Authority Regulation regarding the Offering of Securities Through Information Technology-Based Crowdfunding Services. The Offering of Securities Through Information Technology-Based Crowdfunding Services is hereinafter referred to as Securities Crowdfunding.
