Indonesia’s merger and acquisition regulatory framework has undergone significant streamlining, creating more efficient pathways for transaction completion while maintaining appropriate oversight. These improvements are particularly beneficial for transactions involving foreign investors and mid-sized enterprises.
Key enhancements include simplified pre-notification requirements, clearer materiality thresholds for mandatory filings, expedited review timelines for non-sensitive sectors, and standardized documentation requirements across regulatory authorities.
Particularly notable is the new Fast Track Review program for transactions in priority investment sectors, which establishes a 30-day maximum review timeline for compliant applications.
“The regulatory improvements have substantially reduced transaction uncertainty and timeline risk,” explains Surya Wijaya, M&A Advisory Director at ProSpace Indonesia. “Companies with proper preparation and structuring can now achieve much more predictable outcomes in Indonesian transactions.”
