T

he Financial Service Authority (OJK) is preparing a smooth transition to welcome newly elected members of its board of commissioners.

Outgoing OJK chairman Muliaman Darmansyah Hadad said the new commissioners have already visited the superbody’s office to discuss what had already been done, what was ongoing and future activities.

The new team will assume its position on July 21.

"The transition will not be gradual, but simultaneous. After that, the new commissioners will hold their first meeting to discuss their responsibilities and positions [in the OJK]," Muliaman said during an open house event at his official residence in South Jakarta on Monday.

OJK has nine commissioners, comprising a chairman, deputy chairman and two commissioners, which are assigned by the Finance Ministry and Bank Indonesia (BI) as their representatives.

The other five commissioners handle different sectors, namely banking, non-banking, capital market, education and consumer protection, and audit.

The new OJK lineup will consist of Wimboh Santoso, now Bank Mandiri president commissioner; Riswinandi, PT Pegadaian president director; and Nurhaida, OJK capital market commissioner.

It will also have the presence of Heru Kristiyana, OJK deputy banking commissioner; Hoesen, former Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) director; Tirta Segara, BI spokesperson; Ahmad Hidayat, BI Internal Financial Department director; Mirza Adityaswara, BI senior deputy governor; and Mardiasmo, deputy finance minister.

Wimboh was seen among the guests at Muliaman’s open house event, but Muliaman said they did not speak at length about the former’s new job.

"I know Wimboh well; we both worked at BI," he said. (tas)
