Signature Investigation Continues

VIVAnews – Following the questioning of Director of PT Signature Capital Indonesia, the Capital Market and Financial Institution Supervisory Agency (Bapepam-LK) said it will continue its investigation of the company's management next week.

"I don’t want to comment yet. Truthfully, the examination has not been completed. There’s still more to come,” said Director of Signature Capital Indonesia, Imrizal Ismail, after being examined by Bapepam-LK in Jakarta, Thursday evening, Dec. 11.

Imrizal also did not explain the subject of the examination, nor the data submitted to Bapepam-LK. Imrizal said that the investigation is only in its early stages and will be continued next week. “It will be continued. Next week [I will be] examined again,” he said.

Head of Bapepam-LK’s Investigation Bureau, Sarjito, said the Signature Capital problem is almost revealed modus-wise. “We will conduct an investigation and ask for additional data,” he said.

According to him, the entire problem centers in PT Bank Century Tbk. "We will still ask for audit data from Century and the question more people," said Sarjito.

Aside from Director of Signature Capital Indonesia, Imrizal Ismail, yesterday Bapepam-LK also questioned the head of Century’s Senayan branch, and Century’s marketing staff. “We are examining Imrizal, marketing (staff) and head of Century branch,” said Sarijto, Thursday, Dec. 11.

The questioning is believed to be related to suspected case of misuse of Century Bank’s and Signature Capital’s customers’ funds. Century client funds were invested in products resembling mutual funds, issued by PT Antaboga Deltasekuritas Indonesia.

Last week, 5 December, Director of Signature Capital, Otto Eduard Sitorus, was arrested for alleged embezzlement of customers’ funds in this case, after hours of being questioned at Bapepam-LK.  Someone from Antaboga management has also been caught but his name was not revealed.

Meanwhile, a ban on traveling has also been put on Signature’s management, in addition to Antaboga’s management. “We have been coordinating with Bareskrim (the Criminal Investigation Department) and they have been banned from traveling. Both Antaboga and Signature (management),” said Sarjito, Dec. 9. However, Sarjito did not mention in detail as to who have actually been banned from traveling. “For more information, just ask Bareskrim. Anyone who’s involved would be banned from traveling,” he said.
