Indonesia Enhances Commodity Trading Ecosystem with Blockchain Integration

Standardized Storage and Warehouse Receipts

PT Kliring Perdagangan Berjangka Indonesia (PT KPBI), a subsidiary of PT Kliring Berjangka Indonesia (PT KBI), has received approval from BAPPEBTI to operate as a warehouse manager in the Warehouse Receipt System (SRG). This development enables PT KPBI to provide standardized storage facilities that support the issuance of warehouse receipts for producers and businesses. The approval, stipulated in the Decree of the Head of BAPPEBTI Number 41/BAPPEBTI/Kep-SRG/PG/11/2025, reflects PT KPBI's readiness to play a central role in the commodity storage ecosystem.

Blockchain Technology Implementation

To carry out its new function, PT KPBI will utilize the Is-Ware application, a blockchain-based SRG platform developed by PT KBI. The implementation of this technology is expected to improve stock recording reliability, accelerate the registration process of warehouse receipts, and expand access to financing based on warehouse receipts for commodity producers. The use of blockchain ensures transparency and security in the commodity storage and trading process.

Strategic Commodities Focus

In the initial stage, PT KPBI will operate warehouses for rice and coffee, two strategic commodities that significantly contribute to the national supply chain. By focusing on these commodities, PT KPBI aims to offer integrated services that support the needs of producers and businesses, positioning itself as a one-stop service provider in the commodity trading ecosystem.

Future Prospects

The development of the national commodity trading ecosystem through the integration of blockchain technology is expected to have a positive impact on the overall commodity market in Indonesia. By enhancing the efficiency and transparency of commodity storage and trading, this initiative is likely to attract more participants to the market, potentially increasing liquidity and supporting the growth of the agricultural sector.
