Abstract: The Fiduciary Institution is regulated in Law Number 42 of 1999 on Fiduciary (‘FL’). One of the ways to
give legal certainty and protection in FL is the registration of the fiduciary so as to give the preferred rights
to the fiduciary recipient over the other creditors; besides publishing the fiduciary certificate. Nevertheless,
the Constitutional Court Decision No. 18/PUU-XVII/2019, brought some consequences to the creditors when
they want to execute and sell the object that becomes the fiduciary object. The method used in this research
is normative juridical. Besides, it is library research applying a descriptive analytical method with secondary
data. The research result shows that after the publication of the Constitutional Court Decision, there are some
changes in the mechanism of the execution of the fiduciary object. The execution of the court verdict based
on the assessment of a default must be in line with the agreement between both parties, namely the creditor
and debtor. The Constitutional Court in its decisions implies the importance of the good faith principle of the
creditors and the need of legal protection for the debtors, especially related to the execution of the fiduciary
object.
1 INTRODUCTION
Economic development is an essential thing in a
country. This thing needs to be prioritized so that the
social welfare in leading a good life in a country based
on the Pancasila philosophy and the 1945
Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia can be
fulfilled. At present, there are a lot of institutions
facilitating this in order to make it easy for the society
to meet their financial needs, which is in the form of
borrowing related to financial institutions, both banks
and nonbanks.
In line with the economic and trade development,
financial institutions as well as guarantor agencies
have given facilities about giving loans to the society
for the purpose of simplifying and also reducing the
payment of a thing desired, which is an object that is
agreed on in a credit transaction.

According to Rachmadi Usman, there are some
criteria for a good collateral which suits the purpose
of the guarantee itself; they are 1. to easily help get
the credit for those who need it; 2. not to weaken the
potentiality (strength) of the debtors to do or continue
the business; 3. to give certainty to the creditors,
which means that the collateral can be executed at any
time, if necessary, it can be easily cashed to pay off
the debtors’ loan. (Usman, 2008)
Therefore, this confirms that a guarantee should
consider these two factors, namely: 1. secured,
meaning that the credit guarantee is bound in a
judicial and formal way so that in the event of
defaults, (failure of a party to fulfil its obligations
under a contract), the bank has the judicial power to
do an executional action. 2. marketable, meaning that
if the collateral is to be executed, it can be sold or
cashed fast to pay off the debt that becomes the

debtor’s obligation. This must give assurance to all
the parties in doing the agreement by following the
procedures and knowing the limitations so that
anything harmful for any party can be hindered.
After the guarantee is given by the related
institution, the law should be responsible for
balancing the speed of trade activities, supervising as
well as controlling each action in doing the
transactions that are continuously developing.
The Law of Guarantees is a legal area that is
currently more popular with the term The Economic
Law, which has the function of supporting the
economic progress and development in general.
Hence, the arrangement of the legal area needs to be
prioritized. (Mulyadi,1972).
The guarantee itself in general is regulated in
Article 1131 of the Civil Code, which states that any
property of the debtor, both movable and immovable,
whether it currently exists or will exist in the future,
becomes a collateral for any agreement. As a result,
any property of the debtor automatically will become
a collateral whenever the person makes a loan
agreement despite the fact that it is not explicitly
stated as a guarantee. (Civil Code).
Salim HS formulates the economic law as the
overall legal rules that arrange the relationship
between the guarantee giver and receiver regarding
the imposition of guarantee in order to get the credit
facility. The aspects mentioned in the definition are:
1. The legal rule in the economic law, which can be
distinguished into two types, namely the written
economic law and the unwritten economic law. 2. A
guarantee giver or guarantor and recipient. A
guarantor is a person or institution that gives the
collateral to the guarantee recipient. The guarantor
refers to a person or a legal entity that needs a credit
facility. 3. A collateral, which is a material or
nonmaterial thing. A material collateral is a guarantee
in the form of property rights of movable and
immovable things. A nonmaterial collateral is a
guarantee in the form of nonmaterial things. 4. A
credit facility, which is the collateral imposition done
by the guarantor with the aim of getting the credit
facility from a bank or nonbank financial institution
based on trust.
Moreover, Sri Soedewi Masjchoen Sofwan claims
that the economic law is law that regulates the
juridical construction which makes it possible to give
a credit facility by making the things bought as
collaterals. (Sofwan, 2003). One of the guarantor
agencies which accommodate this is fiduciary.
Fiduciary has been applied in Indonesia since the
Dutch colonialization as a form of guarantee that
originates from jurisprudence. Fiduciary is still
applied because the process of imposition is
considered simple, easy and fast. The rules
concerning fiduciary are regulated in Law Number 42
of 1999 on Fiduciary (hereafter abbreviated as ‘FL’).
Article 1 Section1 of FL gives an understanding that
fiduciary is “a transfer of ownership of an object on
trust with the provision that transferred ownership of
the object remains in the control of the owner”.
The word fiduciary comes from Latin, which is
fides”, meaning trust; hence, fiduciary refers to a
legal relationship between a debtor who gives
fiduciary and a creditor who receives fiduciary. This
relationship is based on trust. The transfer of
ownership which is based on trust in fiduciary is
commonly called a transfer of constitutum
possesorium (a transfer by continuing the authority).
A guarantor agency, more specifically fiduciary,
has the main purpose of enabling the society to meet
the needs which are felt higher and higher day by day.
Nevertheless, there must be some absolute things to
do in fulfilling the fiduciary agreement, one of which
is the fiduciary certificate made in front of a notary
and registered to the fiduciary registration office. All
the parties, both the debtor and creditor, must
understand how the fiduciary agreement is made. The
process of fiduciary attachment must be done
meticulously and elaborately so as not to create a hole
that can be exploited by irresponsible parties.
Besides, this is also done so that, if a default done by
one party takes place, the solution can be executed in
a clear way and it can be obeyed by the two parties
having the agreement. Fiduciary gives a legal
protection as well for both parties and it gives legal
certainty that is written in the approved agreement by
having the fiduciary certificate or grosse akte.
Then the Constitutional Court Decision No.
18/PUU-XVII/2019 was issued, which definitely
influences the characteristic of absoluteness of a
fiduciary certificate, which has so far given the legal
assurance because it contains a specific characteristic.
This certainly has impacts on some interested parties,
both directly and indirectly. Creditors will meet a
quite significant obstacle, considering that the process
of executing and selling the fiduciary object changes,
and it is not as simple as before the Constitutional
Court Decision was issued.
2 METHODS
The research is done using the normative juridical
method, by analysis Law Number 42 of 1999
concerning Fiduciary and also the Constitutional
Court Decision. Next, a careful analysis is done

The research is descriptive analytical and it
describes the legal standing of a fiduciary certificate
after the issuance of the Constitutional Court
Decision No. 18/PUU-XVII/2019 and the role of
good faith in the execution of the fiduciary object and
also the application of the Constitutional Court
Decision. In addition, the research contains an
analysis of the facts in the practice of whether the
Constitutional Court Decision is immediate or it has
to be legislated first.
The data collection technique uses a secondary
data as the main data and the primary data is used in
support of the secondary data.
3 RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
A fiduciary certificate becomes the base of the
execution of the fiduciary object; however, the
issuance of the Constitutional Court Decision No.
18/PUU-XVII/2019 causes some changes in the
execution of the fiduciary object. Therefore, in the
next part there will be a further elaboration of the
execution of the fiduciary object in practice.
3.1 The Legal Standing of the
Fiduciary Certificate after the
Constitutional Court Decision No.
18/PUU-XVII/2019
An authentic deed clearly distinguishes between the
rights and duties, assures the legal certainty, and also
gives the legal protection to all the parties. The
agreement that is contained in an authentic deed is
also expected to be able to avoid a continuous dispute.
An authentic deed is a written proof that is strong
enough to really contribute to the problem solution in
a cheap and fast way. (Akhmad, 2019).
A fiduciary certificate is a proof of an agreement
between two parties, namely the creditor and debtor,
which arranges the transfer of the ownership of an
object based on trust, which is the copy of the
fiduciary list book containing some notes regarding
the agreement made in front of a notary in accordance
with the Act (Vide Act Number 42 of 1999 concerning
Fiduciary). A fiduciary certificate is an evidence tool;
on the other hand, it also has the immediate
characteristic which becomes the base of doing an
execution without having to go to court.
A fiduciary certificate also regulates the transfer
of ownership of an object based on trust; in other
words, a fiduciary certificate is the copy of the
fiduciary list book which contains the things about the
agreement made in front of a notary in accordance
with Law Number 42 of 1999 concerning Fiduciary.
(HS, Salim 2017) A fiduciary certificate has the
characteristic of grosse akte, which is an official
duplicate copy of a deed for a debt declaration with
the head of deed “In the Name of Justice Based on the
Divinity of the One God”. This oath makes a
fiduciary certificate have a strong legal certainty to be
the foundation of being able to do an immediate
execution without having to go to court. The
execution can be done if the debtor does a default.
A fiduciary certificate is a step for making an
agreement done by the two parties as a strong
evidence tool in the ownership evidence; moreover, it
is also used to prevent a conflict with the other party.
A fiduciary certificate must be done in front of a
notary and registered to the fiduciary registration
office. The making of the fiduciary agreement which
becomes the fiduciary deed must be attended by all
the parties. In addition, the redaction of the deed has
to be done in a meticulous way so that there will not
be a hole that can be exploited by irresponsible
parties. This is also done so that when the parties do
a default, the solution can be clear and obeyed by the
two parties having the agreement.
Basically, the fiduciary certificate has the function
of making it easier for creditors to do the execution
because they have the executional power regulated in
Law Number 42 of 1999 concerning Fiduciary. It is
further emphasized that fiduciary is also a parate
execution, which is described by Bachtiar Sibarani
that “a parate execution can do the execution itself
without the help or intervention from the court or
judges” (Sibarani, 2001). R. Subekti explains that a
parate execution means “doing it itself and taking
what becomes the rights (Subekti, 1989) Hence, in
this explanation, it is obvious that a fiduciary
certificate is immediate.
Then the Constitutional Court Decision Number
18/PUU-XVII/2019 was issued. This decision makes
the mechanism that refers to Article 15 Sections (2)
and (3) of the Fiduciary Law obstructed in practice.
This has an impact on the creditor who will
execute the fiduciary object because after the
Constitutional Court Decision, the legal standing of
the fiduciary certificate which has been made by the
parties becomes unclear. Besides, the certificate also
ICE-HUMS 2021 - International Conference on Emerging Issues in Humanity Studies and Social Sciences
344
loses the immediate characteristic of its function as
grosse akte to do the execution immediately. This will
lead to the fact that the legal certainty for the creditor
is reduced. If the debtor does not willingly give the
fiduciary object, an obstruction for the execution of
the fiduciary will occur.
3.2 Mechanism of the Fiduciary Object
Execution after the Constitutional
Court Decision No. 18/
PUU-XVII/2019 based on Good
Faith
The Fiduciary Law guarantees the practical solution
mechanism of the execution of the fiduciary object. If
the debtor is considered to do a default, the creditor
can execute the fiduciary object immediately. The
execution of the fiduciary object is based on the
fiduciary certificate which has the grosse akte
characteristic with the executional power so that the
immediate execution of the fiduciary object can be
done without the help of the court, on condition that
a default occurs.
After the issuance of the Constitutional Court
Decision Number 15/PUU-XVII/2019, in which it is
stated that the creditor cannot execute the fiduciary
object unilaterally just based on the fiduciary
certificate.
The Constitutional Court decides that a creditor
who wants to do the execution must file a request to
the District Court first although it is still possible for
the creditor to be able to do the immediate execution
as long as the debtor admits having done a default and
willingly gives the fiduciary object.
A debtor who willingly gives the fiduciary object
usually has good faith. This good faith originates
from the relationship between human beings of
dignity, which is a relationship that is free but does
not harm each other.
Article 1313 of the Civil Code (hereafter
abbreviated as CC) formulates a contract as follows:
“A contract is an action to which one or more
individuals bind themselves to one another”. From
this definition of Article 1313 of CC, it can be
concluded that a contract referred to in the article is a
contract that causes an agreement (overenkomst).
Therefore, the relationship between an agreement and
a contract is that a contract leads to an agreement. A
contract is one of the sources of an agreement, besides
the law as another source.
A contract is formed because of the agreement
with declaration of intent as stipulated in the first part
of Article 1320 of CC regarding one of the
requirements for the contract to be considered valid,
namely the consent of the individuals who are bound.
In general, an agreement takes place because there
is a declaration from one party to bind himself, and
then the other party makes a declaration to accept the
offer.
Herlien Budiono is of the opinion that at least
there are three main principles covering the law of
contract, which are:
a. “Consensual Principle, in which a contract is
made because of the consensus of the parties.
In principle, a contract can be made freely and
not bound to a certain form and it is not
fulfilled formally, but only based on
consensus.
b. Binding Legal Force Principle (verbindende
kracht der overeenkomst) all the parties must
fulfil what have been agreed on.
c. Freedom of Contract Principle
(contractsvrijheid) all the parties have the
free will to make a contract and each person is
free to attach themselves to whoever they
want. The parties are also free to determine the
content scope as well as the conditions of the
contract, as long as the contract is not in
conflict with the mandatory laws, both in
public order and decency”.
Besides the 3 (three) main principles which base
the law of contract, in the writers’ opinion, there is
one very important and fundamental principle which
develops the law of contract, namely the good faith
principle.
Good faith is a principle in a contract; basically a
contract must be made based on good faith (vide
Article 1338 section (1) CC), while in the context of
Article 1338 section (3) CC, good faith must be based
on rationality and propriety.
The arrangement of Article 1338 (3) CC stipulates
that a contract must be done with good faith
(contractus bonafidei a contract based on good
faith). This means that the contract is done according
to propriety and justice. The understanding of good
faith in law has a wider scope than it is in everyday
use. Hoge Raad in his decision on 9 February 1923
formulates that a contract must be done volgens de
eisen van redelijkheid en bilijkheid”, meaning that
good faith must be done with propriety and decency.
P. L. Werry translates this using the terms virtue and
propriety. Good faith becomes an important principle
in the system of the contract law in Indonesia. Good
faith must be done since the pre-contract stage.

The changes of the mechanism of the fiduciary
object execution due to the Constitutional Court
Decision are divided into:
1. Execution Mechanism of the Fiduciary Object
before the Constitutional Court Decision
No. 18/PUU-XVII/2019
Basically, before the Constitutional Court
Decision, the practice of the fiduciary execution
refers to Article 15 section (1) and section (2) of the
Fiduciary Law. In principle the creditor can
immediately do the execution if there is a default done
by the debtor as long as it meets the condition, namely
having the fiduciary certificate. A creditor can sell the
thing that becomes the fiduciary object due to the
authority of the fiduciary recipient through a public
auction and he can take the repayment of the debt
from the sales results of the execution based on the
parate execution.
Therefore, it should be noticed that in Article 29
section (1) of the Fiduciary Law, this is a conditional
provision, which will be applied if the condition
mentioned is met, namely if the debtor has done a
default. Hence, before the Constitutional Court
Decision, the mechanism process of the execution of
the fiduciary is simpler, faster, and straight to the
point. Besides, the object can be auctioned directly,
which becomes the characteristic of fiduciary, namely
the ease of executing the object, if a default occurs.
This also means that before the constitutional
court decision, the execution mechanism refers to
Tittle Eksekutorial, which does not have to be done
through a court decision, but which can be in the form
of an authentic deed that is made by the parties
concerning the debt agreement that has Tittle
Eksekutorial, which is equal to a court decision.
Furthermore, it also has the oath on the binding head
of the deed which is made by a notary who has high
integrity (Satrio, 1993).
Herlien Budiono further states that in principle,
fiduciary is a material agreement, and not a
consensual one, despite the fact the object is a
movable one. The reason why it has to be in the form
of a notarial deed is because it becomes the absolute
condition of fiduciary. The reason why fiduciary has
to be registered is because it becomes the publicity
principle (Budiono, 2016).
2. Execution Mechanism of the Fiduciary Object
before the Constitutional Court Decision
No. 18/PUU-XVII/2019
After the Constitutional Court Decision, there is a
change of the mechanism of the fiduciary object,
referring to the written verdict which in essence
explains that if a debtor does not willingly give or has
an objection to give the fiduciary object, the
execution must be done based on the court decision,
which then evaluates that the default cannot be judged
by just one party, but there must be an agreement
between the two parties, the creditor and debtor.
Thus, after the Constitutional Court Decision, the
creditor can no longer do the immediate execution,
but there must first be the debtor’s willingness
although the creditor has already got the fiduciary
certificate.
On the one hand, this decision creates a legal
protection to the debtor, but on the other hand, from
the creditor’s side, a creditor should also have equal
legal protection. The mechanism of the fiduciary
object, in which it must obtain an agreement from the
court if a debtor does not willingly give the fiduciary
object, will cause an impact of economic imposition
on the creditor as it will be difficult to execute the
fiduciary object.
3. Application of the Constitutional Court
Decision No. 18/PUU-XVII/2019
A decision is a term used to refer to the end of a
court case in the sense that each decision given by the
judge must be obeyed by both parties. This is in line
with the fact that a case must be ended through the
judge’s final decision (in rachet) so that it is known
which side wins and which side loses in the decision.
This final decision must be accepted and obeyed by
both parties. Soeparmono states that a judge’s
decision is a statement made by a judge as a state
official who is assigned the judicial power and given
the authority for this. This is literally spoken in the
court and has the purpose of ending a case.
(Soeparmono, 2005). However, not infrequently does
a judge’s decision create new cases instead of ending
a case.
The Constitutional Court reviews the Fiduciary
Law towards the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of
Indonesia, which starts with the creditor’s filing a
judicial review to the constitutional court regarding
the execution problem because the debtor is
considered to have done a default of the agreement.
The Constitutional Court, based on Law Number
24 of 2003 concerning the Constitutional Court, has
the authority in doing a review of the law towards the
1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia, on
condition that one of the parties files a judicial
review. The Constitutional Court does a judicial
review on the law and the one filing the judicial
review gives a proposition that Article 15 sections (2)
and (3) contradicts the regulation in the Constitution
so that the Constitutional Court can make a final
decision that can change the mechanism of the
ICE-HUMS 2021 - International Conference on Emerging Issues in Humanity Studies and Social Sciences
346
fiduciary object. The written verdict contains the
followings:
1. the execution of the fiduciary object must be
done through the court when the debtor does
not willingly give the object.
2. the evaluation about the debtor’s default
cannot be done unilaterally, but it must be
based on a mutual agreement between both
parties
The Constitutional Court Decision has explained
the meaning of Article 15 section (2) and section (3)
of the Fiduciary Law and has put a new rule in it so
that a new rule is applied. However, the question is
whether the Constitutional Court has the authority to
insert a new rule into a law in an immediate way or it
is the Fiduciary Law that has to change and this
change has to be legislated. As a result, the
Constitutional Court’s authority and its type of
decision related to this need to be further analysed.
The Constitutional Court’s review of the law
towards the 1945 Constitution as regulated in Article
56 Law No. 24 of 2003 concerning the Constitutional
Court are as follows:
1. stating that the application cannot be accepted
if the applicant does not meet the condition
2. stating that the application is approved a. THE
CONSTITUTIONAL COURT is of the
opinion that the application is reasonable b.
the law does not fulfil the rule of the forming
of the 1945 Constitution
3. stating that the application is rejected because
it is considered that the law does not contradict
the 1945 Constitution.
Regarding the authority of the Constitutional
Court, according to the rules stated in the law about
the Constitutional Court above that it would be better
if the Constitutional Court does not insert a new rule
in the law in an immediate way, but it has to be
legislated first so that it has the binding characteristic.
According to Jimly Asshiddiqie, the legal
standing of the Constitutional Court is as Negative
Legislator, meaning that the Constitutional Court can
only decide that a rule in a law contradicts the
Constitution; it cannot insert, add or change a new
rule that has already been in the law (Asshiddiqie,
2006).
The Constitutional Court Decision can be in the
form of a negative decision (abolishing a law) and a
positive decision (creating a new regulatory state of
law). The Constitutional Court Decision is negative
when a certain law is declared to be contradictory to
the 1945 Constitution, considering that the
Constitutional Court decision is self-executing, final
and binding, the executor of the Constitutional Court
decision is the House of Representatives, as the
embodiment of the principles of checks and balances,
which immediately follows this up so as not to create
the legal vacuum, which will also affect the
implementation rules in the Government, if a law
changes, automatically the implementation rules
change. The Constitutional Court as the Negative
Legislator in the Constitutional Law Enforcement
(Bintari, 2013).
The formation of the Constitutional Court is
intended to have the authority as a Negative
Legislator. This means that the Constitutional Court
can only abolish a law or rule. On the other hand, the
parliament is called a positive legislator because it has
an active authority to make laws. This doctrine then
develops and is continuously used as one of the
supporting theories in the context of power separation
in Indonesia, especially between the Constitutional
Court and House of Representatives. In other words,
it is interpreted that the authority of the Constitutional
Court is limited only to abolishing the laws, and not
making the laws or other rules (Faiz, 2016).
Thus, the Constitutional Court cannot change the
rule in a law in an immediate way, but it has to be
legislated first by following the guidance of good law
making principles in order to prevent any mistakes
and faults in the rule making. After the decision of the
constitutional court, things that happen in practice
have an impact on creditors who have good faith, they
can find it difficult to carry out executions when
dealing with debtors with bad faith. It is necessary for
the decision of the constitutional court to be followed
up by the legislature to complete the applicable rules.
If the legislative body does not act proactively
enough in adopting the decisions of the constitutional
court, there will be obstacles in practice in the
execution of guarantees.
4 CONCLUSIONS
Based on the result of the research done, the legal
standing of the fiduciary certificate after the
Constitutional Court Decision Number 18 PUU-XVII
2019 in practice has an executorial right as explained
in Article 15 section (2) of the Fiduciary Law, which
means that the execution of the fiduciary object can
be done without the court and this is final and binding
so that it must be obeyed by the two parties when the
execution process is going on. After the
Constitutional Court Decision, the process of the
fiduciary execution is not immediate; an immediate
Good Faith Principle and Legal Protection over Parties Related to Fiduciary Certificate in the Constitutional Court Decision in Indonesia
after the Constitutional Court Decision Number 18/PUU-XVII/2019
347
execution can be done as long as the debtor willingly
gives the fiduciary object. If the debtor is not willing
to give the fiduciary object, the execution of the
fiduciary certificate must be done and must be the
same as the execution decided by the court which has
a permanent legal force. The impact caused by the
Constitutional Court Decision is the lack of the legal
certainty of the execution of the fiduciary object if the
debtor does not willingly give the object he owns and
he does not admit the default. However, if the debtor
willingly gives the fiduciary object and admits the
default, the creditor’s executorial right can still be
legally assured.
The Constitutional Court has changed the
mechanism of the fiduciary certificate execution. In
practice, this causes some difficulties for the creditor
so that the legal protection cannot be fulfilled if the
debtor is not willing to give the fiduciary object,
although there is a fiduciary certificate (as the
requirement of the fiduciary object execution).
Consequently, the Constitutional Court Decision
Number 18 PUU-XVII 2019 cannot be immediately
applied because the role of Constitutional Court is as
Negative Legislator. As such, the Constitutional
Court can only abolish a rule in a law which
contradicts the Constitution.
Although the Constitutional Court Decision has a
binding legal force right after it is read out. Yet, not
all Constitutional Court decisions which approve of
the applicant’s applications are executable because
there must be a process of making the new law or the
law amendment. This is needed due to the fact that
the values of legal norms in the society are formed
through the laws and legislation which in general give
the binding effects.
So this decision of the constitutional court needs
to be followed up immediately by making legal rules
that can answer legal certainty for the parties so that
in the end legal protection for both creditors and
debtors with good faith can still be fulfilled.
