Jakarta (ANTARA) - The Financial Services Authority (OJK) united the development direction of various sharia financial services sectors under one integrated policy framework through the Blueprint for the Development and Strengthening of Islamic Finance.

“The hope is that this blueprint will become an important milestone and a guide for all of us to make a big leap, not just gradual growth, in the development of national sharia finance,” OJK Board of Commissioners Chair Friderica Widyasari Dewi said in a statement received here on Monday.

The blueprint was launched at the Indonesia Islamic Finance Summit (IIFS) 2026 in Makassar on Monday.

The sharia financial services sectors include banking, capital markets, insurance, guarantees, pension funds, financing institutions, and financial sector technology innovation and digital financial assets.

Dewi stressed the importance of strengthening an integrated Islamic finance ecosystem so industry growth can give wider benefits to the public and the national economy.

She added that this development needs to keep being strengthened through institutional capacity and resilience, product innovation and differentiation, talent development, and policy harmonization and cross-sector coordination.

Dewi also stressed that developing the Islamic finance industry aims not only to widen financial product and service choices but also to make Islamic finance the main choice for Indonesians.

To achieve that, the industry needs to offer innovative, competitive products and services that meet the needs of all layers of society, regardless of religious background.

The blueprint carries a vision of an Islamic finance industry that is competitive, inclusive, professional, and synergistic across sectors, so it becomes Indonesians’ main choice to support the national economy.

To realize the vision, OJK set three strategic directions, which are healthy, competitive, and innovative industry development, a complete, inclusive, and contributive ecosystem, and harmonized regulation, licensing, and supervision across sectors.

The three directions are supported by four main foundations, which are technology and cyber resilience, optimizing the role of holding company ecosystems, talent readiness, and links with social funds for national economic empowerment.

Meanwhile, OJK's Chief Executive of Banking Supervision and Chair of the Islamic Finance Development Committee (KPKS) Dian Ediana Rae explained that the blueprint aims to strengthen links among Islamic financial service industries that have each been developing their own roadmaps.

Through that approach, OJK encourages the banking, insurance, financing, capital market, and other Islamic financial services sectors to complement one another in supporting the national halal economy ecosystem.

Rae stressed that the committee will keep overseeing the blueprint’s implementation so the agreed direction can produce real policies and programs across all financial services sectors.
