The Indonesian Life Insurance Association or AAJI considers that 2021 still has big challenges for the protection business. Industry players also need to carefully look for gaps in business development and maintain service quality, including unit-linked as the main product.

Chairman of the Management Board of the Indonesian Life Insurance Association (AAJI) Budi Tampubolon explained that uncertainty is still quite high in the business climate this year. This is because the spread of Covid-19 continues to occur and a number of countries are struggling to face the second wave of the pandemic, along with the mutation of the delta virus variant. According to him, 2021 is still a year full of challenges for the life insurance business. Nevertheless, there is still potential for growth for the life insurance industry, including investment-linked (PAYDI) or unit-linked insurance products which are the industry's main portfolio. "This year the room for growth is open, but we can't run a business or look for marketing gaps like the previous year," said Budi. He considered that unit-linked products had a significant impact on industry performance, because these products accounted for nearly three-quarters of the industry's portfolio. In depressed capital market conditions such as at the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic, some policy holders withdraw funds or terminate their policies, although a few others add investment components.

Senior Faculty of the Indonesian Banking Development Institute (LPPI) Trioksa Siahaan assessed that the increase in mini-bank share prices was still influenced by high expectations of mini-banks' plans to switch to digital banks. "There is a phenomenon of high expectations for small banks' corporate actions that will switch to digital banking. If it is not supported by strong fundamentals, then this is only euphoria," he said. Apart from the plan to transform to a digital bank, he said, there has been no other strong sentiment to boost bank share prices. Moreover, the increase in the number of Covid-19 cases, which continues to record new records, has raised concerns about the disruption of a faster economic recovery.

The capitalization of the Indonesia Stock Exchange rose 1.22 percent to Rp. 8,463 trillion from Rp. 8. .360 trillion in the previous week. In last week's trading, the strengthening of issuer stocks in the commodity sector was the driving force. The strengthening of commodity stocks was also inseparable from the increase in the prices of several commodity products. The price of crude palm oil (CPO) continues to rise. Other commodities, such as coal, which weakened in the middle of last week, rose again at the weekend to above 210 US dollars per tonne. If you pay attention to commodity index charts, such as the Commodity Research Bureau (CRB) Index chart, the increase has actually been seen since 2020. CRB is an indicator of commodity prices in global markets.

In a conversation in the Senayan area, a business source close to the Selection Committee (Pansel) of the Financial Services Authority (OJK) Board of Commissioners said that the figure who entered the radar for this position was in Sri Mulyani's pocket.

This is because the chances of the strongest candidate who is expected to occupy the OJK Board of Commissioners, namely the Chairman of the Supreme Audit Agency (BPK) Agung Firman Sampurna, is shrinking. A Bisnis source explained that at first, Agung's name was enough to get full support from the internal government, including the Pansel, to serve as a member of the OJK Board of Commissioners. Unfortunately, the dynamics of politics in Senayan disrupted this scenario. The root of the problem lies in Agung's unwillingness to support Nyoman Adhi Suryadnyana in the BPK Member eligibility test for the period 2021-2026 which will be held at Commission XI of the Indonesian House of Representatives (DPR), at the end of 2021. Nyoman is a State Civil Apparatus (ASN) at the Ministry of Finance, to be precise in The Directorate General of Customs and Excise until before being sworn in as a member of the BPK. The problem is, apart from being an insider at the Ministry of Finance, a Bisnis source also mentioned that Nyoman has close ties to the Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDI). Meanwhile, Agung is the son of Kahar Muzakir, a senior politician from the Golkar Party. The refusal of Agung's support was a severe blow for policymakers who had received information that the man also intended to run as a candidate for the OJK Board of Commissioners.

Chairman of the Board of Commissioners of the Financial Services Authority (OJK) Wimboh Santoso revealed that disputes between customers and financial service providers are common in this industry.

However, the disputes that surfaced did not reflect the picture of the problems in the financial services sector as a whole. That's usually because there is a dispute between the customer and financial services, which is normal. But we manage it well, we sit together so that there is a solution," said Wimboh at a press conference at the 2022 Financial Services Industry Annual Meeting. If the mediation does not reach a common ground, settlement through the Financial Services Sector Alternative Dispute Resolution Institution (LAPS SJK) can be the next option. When mediation efforts through LAPS do not reach an agreement, he continued, disputed cases can be brought to court. However, he stressed that the complaints voiced by a number of people did not necessarily reflect that the whole industry was bad. Recently, there have been complaints from a group of customers who claim to feel disadvantaged by the practice of misselling unit link insurance products from three insurance companies, namely PT Prudential Life Assurance (Prudential Indonesia), PT AXA Mandiri Financial Services (AXA Mandiri), and PT AIA Financial (AIA).

At the Financial Services Industry Annual Meeting, President Joko Widodo reaffirmed his commitment to making the micro, small and medium enterprise (MSME) sector a motor of recovery and an economic driver.

Financing to MSMEs, said the President, cannot rely on the natural growth model. "Credit for MSMEs is still in the range of 20%. The 2024 target is to reach 30% of the portion of MSMEs and cannot rely on natural growth. This must be carried out with a breakthrough from now on and seriously," said the Head of State. The President also emphasized that financial institutions, including banks, need to open up easy access to credit for MSMEs. Chairman of the Board of Commissioners of the Financial Services Authority (OJK) Wimboh Santo said there are five policies that strengthen financial support and support national economic recovery. One of them is through the expansion of financial access to the MSME community. OJK together with relevant authorities support efforts to achieve financing to the MSME sector of up to 30% by 2024 by making breakthroughs and providing guidance and optimization of land or markets that have not been exploited. This year, said Wimboh, OJK projects bank credit growth to be in the range of 6.5%-8.5%, with an estimated growth of third party funds (DPK) in the range of 9%-111%. Efforts to open up financing space for the MSME sector were achieved by Bank Indonesia. At the BI Board of Governors Meeting yesterday, the central bank made a breakthrough to boost MSME financing. The central bank provides incentives in the form of relaxation of daily reserve requirements of up to 100 basis points (bps) for banks that channel credit to priority sectors, inclusive financing, and banks that meet the Macroprudential Inclusive Financing Ratio (RPIM) target starting March 1, 2022.

The new limited supply of single-price cooking oil in modern retail raises a number of problems. Traditional market traders and stalls with old stock are unable to compete.

Therefore, the mechanism for providing cooking oil at one price, Rp. 14,000 per liter, which can reach all lines, needs to be finalized. Chairman of the Indonesian Market Traders Association (Ikappi) Abdullah Mansuri assessed that the one-price policy is actually good because people can get packaged cooking oil at affordable prices. However, the government is less communicative in implementing the policy. Market traders associations are not involved and have not received socialization. In fact, the policy will also be applied in traditional markets. Currently, single-price packaged cooking oil is only available in modern retail. "It is impossible for them (market traders) to sell bulk cooking oil and old stock packaging or currently available for Rp. 14,000 per liter because the price they get from distributors is higher than that," he said in Jakarta, Thursday (20/1/2022). ). Currently, market traders sell cooking oil, both bulk and simple packaging, for Rp 18,000-Rp 20,000 per liter. Ikappi asked that the mechanism for providing packaged cooking oil at one price in traditional markets be finalized. The mechanism mainly includes who is the supplier and bearer of the distribution costs and how to calculate the profit for traders when they have to sell cooking oil of Rp. 14,000 per liter.

The Business Competition Supervisory Commission (KPPU) revealed a number of obstacles in the cooking oil industry. KPPU's Director of Economics, Mulyawan Renanggala, said that these obstacles made it difficult for new players to enter the cooking oil industry.

According to him, the new players in the cooking oil industry are failing due to the obligation to supply raw materials to national standards. In fact, more new players are needed in the cooking oil industry so that the price stability of basic commodities can be maintained and the dominance of large companies can be reduced. "We see that government regulations have not encouraged the cooking oil industry because there are still many regulations that hinder the arrival of new players in the cooking oil industry," Mulyawan said at an online press conference in Jakarta, Thursday. One of the difficult rules, Mulyawan continued, is the Regulation of the Minister of Agriculture (Permentan) Number 21 of 2017 concerning the Second Amendment to the Regulation of the Minister of Agriculture Number 98 of 2013 concerning Guidelines for Plantation Business Licensing.

Data from the Poverty Profile of the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) as of September 2021 noted that there were 26.5 million poor people in Indonesia, or covering 9.71 percent of the total population.

This number decreased by 1.05 million people compared to the position in September 2020 of 27.55 million people or 10.19 percent of the total population. There are 16 provinces with the highest percentage of poor people reaching double digits, namely Papua (27.38 percent), West Papua (21.82 percent), East Nusa Tenggara (20.44 percent), Maluku (16.3 percent), Aceh (15.53 percent), and Gorontalo (15.41 percent). When juxtaposed with data from the National Labor Force Survey (Sakernas) as of August 2021, most of these regions actually have low unemployment rates. According to the Employment Researcher at the Center for Population Research, the National Research and Innovation Agency, Triyono, ideally, areas with low unemployment rates also have low poverty rates. However, in fact, simply having a job does not guarantee a person can escape the trap of poverty. "Speaking of unemployment and poverty, the problem is not only the capacity of the regions in creating job opportunities and how many people are absorbed. But also how to increase access to decent work, whether people get social security and decent wages at work," he said when contacted , Tuesday (18/1/2021). The solution that can be taken is from the supply and demand side of the labor market, namely increasing the availability of decent formal employment opportunities and increasing the capacity and skills of the people in the related areas so that they can access decent work.
