Competition & Antitrust

Responding to challenges

With an annual GDP of approximately US$1.8 trillion and a projected working age population of approximately 206 million by 2045, Indonesia is currently the largest economy within the ASEAN Economic Community and consequently a target for a high number of mergers and acquisitions.

The relatively recent enactment of competition and antitrust laws in Indonesia means that missteps in this area can have a tremendous impact on business reputation and growth opportunities. A proper understanding of how the competition law regime affects the way you do business is vital for strategic growth and success.

Depth of experience

Our Competition & Antitrust practice regularly advises Indonesian, international and multinational clients in domestic and cross-border competition matters, and has represented clients in investigations by and proceedings before and against the Indonesian Competition Commission (Komisi Pengawas Persaingan Usaha, KPPU).
