Foreign investors lead most Mergers & Acquisitions (M&A) deals in Indonesia. It is important to note that foreign investments in Indonesia are to be conducted in the form of a PT Penanaman Modal Asing ( commonly known as a PT PMA) – the equivalent of a Limited Liability Company in Indonesia.
Foreign companies or investors should be aware of the recent changes in Indonesia’s Positive Investment List. This list determines the business lines that are open to foreign investments and, more importantly, the maximum percentage of foreign shareholding.

In general, the procedures of Mergers and Acquisitions in Indonesia are summarised as follows:
The process of investigating the financial history and problems in the business is necessary for the company that will be acquired. A thorough investigation needs to be done by a potential investor, so it will not make a wrong move. Due diligence is also helpful for measuring the risk of the business that will be acquired.
A merger or an acquisition takes at least 30 days to be successfully completed from a regulatory perspective. However, it may take longer due to negotiations and diligence processes.
