SGX launches SDR linkage mirroring Indonesian blue chips

Singaporean investors can gain easy access to Indonesian-listed securities by using their local brokers.

The Singapore Exchange has launched the Singapore Depository Receipt (SDR) Linkage mirroring renowned Indonesian listed blue chips.

Issued by Phillip Securities, the Indonesia SDRs represent beneficial ownership interests in the underlying IDX-listed companies of Bank Central Asia, Telkom Indonesia and Indofood CBP.

Through this, Singaporean investors can gain easy access to Indonesian-listed securities by using their local brokers during SGX trading hours.

The launch coincides with the Jakarta Composite Index (JCI) trading at an all-time high in September 2025, having delivered an annualised return of over 9% (a 150% total return) over the past decade.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
