# OJK Chief Urges Calm as MSCI Semi-Annual Index Review Tests Indonesia's Capital Market Governance Reforms

On 11–12 May 2026, OJK Chairwoman Friderica Widyasari Dewi publicly framed the MSCI Semi-Annual Index Review rebalancing as a direct test of Indonesia's board-level governance and ownership-transparency reforms, including expanded beneficial-owner disclosure and free-float thresholds. The episode is a live case study in how regulators and boards must make consequential decisions under index-reclassification uncertainty, with June 2026 as the next hard deadline. For SEA mid-market CEOs and boards, it underscores how governance credibility — not just financial performance — now drives access to global capital and index inclusion.
