Makarim & Taira S. participates in a private FGD organized by Bank Indonesia

Makarim & Taira S. recently had the pleasure of participating in a private focus group discussion organized by Bank Indonesia on investment opportunities and challenges in the downstream natural resources sector.
 
Our Partner, Vincent Ariesta Lie, Senior Associate, Yohanes Kevin and Associate, Flaviana Meydi H. were invited to share their insights on this important topic. Held on 28 March 2023, this event brought together experts and professionals from Bank Indonesia and our firm to identify policies and programs necessary for growth and development within both the natural and non-natural resource sectors, with a focus on promoting downstream activities.
 
Throughout the discussion, participants shared their ideas and experiences to discuss the best ways forward to promote this vital sector of the Indonesian economy. We are hopeful that our contributions may be taken into consideration for policy support on financing and investment, which could further encourage downstream growth.
 
The discussion was highly productive, with valuable insights and recommendations being shared among Bank Indonesia as a policymaker and our firm as practicing professionals in downstream projects. We are confident that the attendees left the event with a deeper understanding of the challenges and opportunities in the downstream sector, and concrete ideas to advance its development.
 
We eagerly look forward to upcoming regulations to facilitate downstream activities and remain committed to supporting the growth and development of this sector.
