Jakarta, CNBC Indonesia – The Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) has confirmed that the exchange’s trading hours have not changed.
This was relayed by IDX Director Irvan Susandy. “Trading hours are always the same,” he said on Wednesday (12/28/2022).
This also clarifies the questions circulating about the return of stock exchange hours to the way they were before the pandemic. This issue arose with the issuing of the Decree of the Board of Directors of the Indonesia Stock Exchange on the changes to the trading guidelines dated December 28, 2022.
The letter stated that trading hours would be the same as before the pandemic, i.e. 09.00 to 12.00 for session I. Meanwhile, session II ran from 13.30 to 15:00: 49.
“In the guidelines, it refers to normal hours. However, we still use it to refer to pandemic trading hours,” Irvan explained.
Pandemic trading hours are 09:00 to 11:30 for session I and 13:30 to 15:00 for session II.
Irvan added that the trading hours referring to the hours before the pandemic were more due to adjusting to strict legal language. As for when the schedule change will return to normal, Irvan said it is still in discussions with the relevant authorities.
