Finding

The company states that PT Straits Futures Indonesia is licensed and regulated by BAPPEBTI, is a futures broker member of the Jakarta Futures Exchange and a broker clearing member of the Indonesian futures clearing house, and that a second Indonesian entity operates through a licensed local partner. We did not open the Indonesian register ourselves, so we record this as the company's own disclosure rather than as confirmed. Anyone dealing with the Indonesian arm should search the BAPPEBTI licensed futures broker list for the exact entity name before depositing. Client protection: Moderate within Indonesia. Client funds are required to sit in segregated accounts at the Indonesian clearing house, but recourse is local and considerably weaker than Singapore or the United States..

BAPPEBTI is classed as an offshore regime. An offshore registration can be entirely legitimate, but it typically means lower capital requirements, no compensation scheme, and a complaint route that is harder to use from abroad.
