He said that the allocation of allotment of shares in the IPO will be fixed through OJK regulation, so far the regulation is not regulated. The plan, the allocation for the public is greater so as to encourage trade activity.

Currently, he added, the portions of allotment fixes of IPO shares are majority owned by institutional investors who are only liquid in the early days. That's because long-term investment-oriented characteristics.

"Later, the pooling allocation is big, now there is no regulation.In some countries pooling allotment is big enough about 5 percent to 10 percent of the total shares to be released," he told media crew.
