In response to the vast growth in technological innovations and the tendency of businesses to integrate in order to create business ecosystems, Bank Indonesia has issued a new Electronic Money Regulation.
It seeks to anticipate the risks associated with the e-money business by implementing risk management and security standards, and increasing supervision over e-money business players. The foreign ownership limits introduced by the Regulation are arguably the most crucial point in the Regulation, and may cause Providers to restructure their e-money businesses.
