The Indonesian government opened its second retail cash Waqf-linked Sukuk (CWLS) series SWR002 on the 9th April 2021, raising IDR24.14 billion (US$1.59 million) in funds. The issuance is the Indonesian government’s first online offering for the CWLS series. The two-year facility based on the Wakalah structure with a fixed rate of 5.57% per annum and monthly coupon payments closed on the 3rd June 2021.
The Sukuk offering follows the first issuance under the retail CWLS series which opened for bidding from the 9th October to the 12th November 2020 and raised IDR14.91 billion (US$980,441) in funds. The second Sukuk offering attracted 91.03% new contributors and saw participation from 588 individual contributors and three institutional contributors.

The cash Waqf facility uses government assets and projects as underlying assets. The government appointed six Islamic banks as distribution partners including Bank Syariah Indonesia, Bank Muamalat Indonesia, Bank CIMB Niaga Syariah, Bank Pertama Syariah, Bank Mega Syariah and Bank Syariah Bukopin.
The banks are also appointed as administrators by Lembaga Keuangan Syariah-Penerima Wakaf Uang, the body regulating Islamic financial institutions which receive cash Waqf, and approved by Badan Wakaf Indonesia, the Indonesian Waqf board.
