“AI and sustainability - cure or curse?”
While AI can help resolve data issues in sustainable investing, it can create problems such as information breaches and inherent bias in data.
Global | Publication | July 2016
The Indonesian Government has issued Presidential Regulation No. 44 of 2016 on the List of Business Fields Closed or Conditionally Open to Investment (New Negative List).
Every few years the Government updates the ‘negative list’ for investment, essentially a list of lines of business that are (a) closed to investment, (b) open to investment, or (c) open to investment with certain conditions.
This year, the changes under the New Negative List focus on protecting micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) and cooperatives, and on simplifying the lines of business that are conditionally open to investment. Overall, 45 business lines, previously closed to foreign investment or requiring a special permit, have been liberalised, and permitted foreign ownership has increased in 44 other business lines. Below we highlight some of the changes by industry sector.
Long-anticipated by investors, the New Negative List implements the 10th Economic Package announced by President Jokowi earlier this year, and is generally consistent with that announcement. It sends a generally positive signal from the Government that Indonesia is becoming more open to investment, both domestic and foreign.
