AIMS Enters Indonesia After Securing BAPPEBTI License, Opens Jakarta Office
AIMS has entered Indonesia after securing regulatory
approval, marking a key step in its expansion across Southeast Asia. The broker
opened its Jakarta office positioning itself to tap into one of the region’s
largest and fastest-growing retail trading markets.
License Enables Market Entry
According to the official announcement, the firm received a license
from Indonesia’s Commodity Futures Trading Regulatory Agency (BAPPEBTI),
allowing it to operate legally and offer trading services to local clients. The
approval places AIMS among regulated brokers in the country and enables it to
build its presence under local compliance standards.

AIMS sees Indonesia as a key market due to its population of
more than 270 million and rising interest in online trading. Increased
smartphone uses and access to digital platforms continue to drive participation
in financial markets.
Over the years Indonesia has attracted a growing number of global CFD and multi-asset brokers, with Plus500 among them. The broker entered the market by acquiring locally regulated Global Intra Berjangka, a firm that halted new client onboarding in early 2023.
Following the deal, Plus500 is now supervised by Bappebti and offers its usual contracts for differences and other standard instruments via a locally registered Indonesian domain, adding another regulated foothold to its broader international expansion.
Doo Financial Futures is the latest, having obtained key approval from BAPPEBTI to operate in the local market. The Indonesian arm of Doo Group can now offer securities, futures, CFDs and OTC products
Indonesia Anchors Regional Strategy
But AIMS has also been eying other regions besides Southeast Asia. It transitioned into a prime brokerage business
after securing a new Market Maker license from the Australian Securities and
Investments Commission (ASIC) on 19 September 2024, a move that followed
several months of preparation and led to the cancellation of its previous ASIC authorization
in August 2025.
Besides acquiring licenses in global jurisdictions, the
brand also entered into a partnership with the Lamborghini brand and its
winery, bringing together Italian luxury and online trading in a single
cross-industry collaboration.
The deal links Lamborghini’s long-standing heritage in both
supercars and fine wine with AIMS’ trading services across Asia-Pacific and
beyond, with both sides presenting it as a move that goes beyond standard
marketing.
