Legal Protection of Investor in the Indonesian Capital Market

This study analyzes the legal protection of investors in Indonesia’s capital market by examining types of violations, sanctions, and the supervisory role of the Financial Services Authority (OJK). The research employs a normative juridical method with a statute approach. Data were obtained from primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials through library research. The findings reveal that investor protection is comprehensively regulated under Law No. 8 of 1995 on the Capital Market and various OJK regulations. Violations such as insider trading, market manipulation, and false information dissemination are subject to administrative, civil, and criminal sanctions. OJK plays a strategic role in ensuring compliance, transparency, and market integrity.
