Since officially joining the UOBAM Group in late 2019, UOBAMI has steadily expanded its capabilities and product offerings.

Growing momentum for responsible investment

In recent years, the investment landscape has seen a meaningful shift. Investors increasingly look for investments that delivers financial returns while generating a positive impact on society and the environment. Many ask themselves: "How can my investments make a positive impact?"

These strategies are aligned not only with Indonesia's sustainability goals but also reflect UOBAMI's long-term commitment to responsible investing and supporting the transition to a sustainable economy.

Widrawan Hindrawan, CEO of PT UOB Asset Management Indonesia, said: "This reflects not only the trust our clients have placed in us, but also our continued commitment to delivering responsible and forward-looking investment solutions. As sustainable investing becomes a defining force in the future of finance, we believe that asset managers have a crucial role to play in driving long-term value creation for both investors and society."
