Our site strengthens commitments in Indonesia, amplifying financial resources by doubling domestic capital to an equivalent of EUR 600 million (IDR 10 trillion)
In a significant move, a prominent global bank has increased its local capital in Indonesia to IDR 10 trillion (€600 million). This investment marks the third capital increase in the Asia Pacific region for the bank this year, signalling its commitment to growth and expansion in the region.
The bank, which has a 54-year history in Indonesia, a key market in its ASEAN network, offers a diverse range of corporate banking solutions. These include cash management, foreign exchange (FX), custody, trade finance, investment banking services, fixed income, and currencies.
The additional investment is expected to support the bank's growth in Indonesia, enabling it to undertake more activities for its clients. The bank's Chief Country Officer for Indonesia, Siantoro Goeyardi, expressed pride in the strong business built over the past 54 years and saw the additional capital as recognition of the success to date and ongoing potential.
Indonesia's financial and investment environment in 2025 has been favourable, with significant capital inflows into the country. Foreign investors pumped Rp9.24 trillion into Indonesian markets in early August 2025, indicating a buoyant investment climate. Additionally, Indonesia's economy grew by 5.12% year-on-year in Q2-2025, driven by consumption and investment, suggesting positive conditions for banking sector growth.
The bank's CEO for Asia-Pacific, Europe, Middle East & Africa (EMEA) and Germany, Alexander von zur Muehlen, sees long-term opportunity in Indonesia due to its fast-growing economy, well-established strength in resources, focus on emerging industries like technology and electric vehicle (EV) manufacturing, structural reform, and economic transformation.
The bank's Indonesia branch has received numerous industry awards, including Asiamoney's 'Best Corporate Bank', Refinitiv's 'Best FX Market Maker', and The Asset's 'Best Islamic Custodian'. These accolades reflect the bank's commitment to excellence and its strong position in the Indonesian market.
