About Us

Since its formation in 1995, the Research Division of Danareksa has built itself into an effective research and monitoring institution, providing valuable insight and intelligence analyses to Danareksa’s management on economic trends and development. One of its key accomplishments was tracking the Asian financial crisis, forecasting various scenarios based on potential parameters as the crisis was unfolding, thereby enabling Danareksa to take informed decisions and actions throughout the crisis.

As a result of these penetrating research and insights, Danareksa navigated successfully through the financial crisis, firmly establishing itself as Indonesia’s premier investment bank. Today, we are pleased to share these insights with the broader business, academic and government communities.
