Indonesia’s central bank has taken an unprecedented step to ease market liquidity by permitting shares to trade at fractions as low as a tenth of a US cent, a move aimed at reviving stalled trading activity. The policy shift reflects growing concerns over thin trading volumes and stagnant market participation, as investors grapple with economic uncertainty. By lowering the minimum price threshold, authorities hope to attract more buyers and sellers, though critics warn it could distort valuations. The decision marks a rare intervention in Southeast Asia’s largest economy, signaling deeper challenges in maintaining market stability.
