DBS Bank (SGX:D05) in partnership with ‘edge’, a business ecosystem connecting Indonesia, Hong Kong, and other cities in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, has hosted the Gateway to Indonesia: Navigating Uncertainties to Capture Boundless Growth conference in Hong Kong.
The timely event brought together senior executives, investors, and professionals to examine the evolving regional economic landscape.
It also sought to explore how businesses can navigate uncertainty while unlocking the growth potential across Indonesia and the broader Asia region.
As the economic environment continues to evolve amid global trade realignments, the conference served as a strategic platform to gain data-backed insights, share experiences, and develop market entry strategies into one of Southeast Asia’s most dynamic and rapidly growing economies – Indonesia.
Headquartered and listed in Singapore, DBS has a strong regional network and extensive crossborder service experience, giving it an advantage in opening doors for businesses into Indonesia. The Singaporean bank also provides advisory on market entry strategies to help clients navigate the complexities of doing business in Indonesia.
DBS Hong Kong offers financing solutions to help businesses tap into growth opportunities in Indonesia, simplifying and optimising crossborder operations. Through advanced cash management services, the bank enables companies to efficiently manage liquidity across multiple markets, ensuring seamless capital flows.
DBS and the Australian Trade and Investment Commission (Austrade) will jointly organise an investor roundtable in Sydney in 3Q 2025 to engage businesses and showcase regional investment opportunities.
As revealed by Mining.com.au, DBS and Austrade have signed a memorandum of understanding to create opportunities for Australian businesses and investors to expand into DBS’ markets in Southeast Asia including Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, and Vietnam.
The MoU is in conjunction with the 10th anniversary of DBS’ Sydney branch. DBS set up its Australia branch in 2015 to facilitate business growth in the country, as well as to connect Australian clients with Asia and vice versa.
