What happened

Well supportedReported by 5 independent outlets

Indonesian stocks fell to a six-year low following a severe market collapse, which was the worst since 1998. The Jakarta Composite Index dropped sharply, with the two-day rout making Indonesia the worst-performing market globally. This turmoil followed a warning from MSCI that it may shift Indonesia to “standalone” status, removing it from the “emerging markets” category.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

MSCI formally assesses and classifies the Indonesian equity market. The potential removal from emerging markets indexes puts pressure on Indonesia to address MSCI's concerns regarding market transparency, corporate governance, and ownership structures.

MSCI had previously reviewed investability criteria for Indonesian markets.
