AJ Bell sees limited UK investor impact from potential MSCI removal of Indonesia

• AJ Bell’s October 16, 2026, analysis examines Indonesia’s potential removal from the MSCI Emerging Markets Index to standalone status.
• The proposal triggered a one-day decline exceeding 11% in the Jakarta Stock Exchange Composite Index, taking its year-to-date loss to 36%.
• Opaque ownership raised concerns about market functioning; MSCI had already imposed a freeze on Indonesia at the end of January.
• Indonesia exposure in funds tracking MSCI emerging market indices fell from 1% to less than 0.5% this year.
• A removal decision is expected next June; the potential reclassification is unlikely to materially affect UK investors.
