JAKARTA (March 11): Indonesia's parliamentary financial commission will on Wednesday assess candidates for top jobs at the Financial Services Authority after an equity market rout in January triggered a spate of resignations. Parliament is considering 10 candidates for a total of five vacancies at the agency, known by its Indonesian abbreviation OJK. They include the current interim chair Friderica Widyasari Dewi and interim capital market supervisor Hasan Fawzi. Most of the other candidates are officials with OJK, the central bank, the finance ministry and the state deposit insurer. Finance Minister Purbaya Yudhi Sadewasaid on Tuesday that the appointments were being fast-tracked because of concerns about financial market volatility due to the conflict in the Middle East.
