Economic Updates: Indonesia
Manufacturing growth spread across Indonesia’s regions
Indonesia | 20 Aug 2014Growth in Indonesia’s manufacturing sector continues to outstrip the rest of the economy, with gains in most industries well above those of the national average. Some regions away from Java posted even higher rates of expansion, though there are lingering concerns some of this growth is underpinned by a reliance on commodities imports – one that fuels the current account deficit.
Indonesia shows its steel with export ban
Indonesia | 14 Jul 2014Indonesia is eyeing higher export levels in the second half of 2014, despite continuing concerns over the impact of a controversial ban on shipments of a key commodity.
Seeking balance in Indonesian tourism
Indonesia | 4 Jul 2014Concerns that one of Indonesia’s best-known tourism destinations, the tropical island of Bali, is being overrun by foreign holidaymakers and that its very popularity is putting at risk the natural attractions that draw so many visitors have prompted renewed calls to broaden the base of the country’s tourism industry, with greater emphasis put on developing new and sustainable resorts.
Indonesia set for FDI shift
Indonesia | 23 Jun 2014A shift of emphasis is under way in the regime governing Indonesia’s foreign direct investment (FDI), as the country moves to boost capital inflows in some areas of the economy through regulatory changes, while closing other sectors to international players.
Indonesia’s rising IPO tide
Indonesia | 23 Apr 2014The stock market in Indonesia is set for another busy year, with 30 or more companies having already announced plans to undertake an initial public offering (IPO) despite looming elections. The wave of new listings, along with new requirements announced by regulators, is set to sustain improved liquidity and activity on the exchange.
Indonesia’s East Java province attracting growing foreign investment
Indonesia | 18 Apr 2014Strengthened by new deals in the transport, energy and agri-business sectors, foreign direct investment (FDI) in Indonesia’s East Java province has shown promising growth in recent years. Although the majority of FDI in Indonesia is sourced from other Asian nations, European investment has grown steadily since 2010, with East Java now poised to benefit from recently strengthened trade ties with the Netherlands.
Indonesia’s housing market likely to cool
Indonesia | 13 Mar 2014Growth in housing prices in Indonesia is expected to slow in 2014 as stricter mortgage rules take effect, although some segments are still predicted to perform strongly.
