Danatama is ideally positioned to take the advantage of this new business environment by consistently responding in a flexible and innovative manner. The bank’s reputation for innovative financial restructuring and solutions places itself strategically among the leading domestic investment banks. For instance, in the past few years, during the bank loan assets disposal programs of the Indonesian Bank Restructuring Agency (“IBRA”), Danatama ranked second among the twenty largest institutional investors that participated in the credit disposal program.

Danatama deals closely with numerous financial institutions, including investment banks and insurance companies, helping them tailor their investment agenda according to their specific requirements and matching their funds to the needs of several hundred listed companies. In fact, Danatama has been instrumental in helping companies and institutions in Indonesia raise more than US$15 billion of capital through the placement of equities, bonds and convertible bonds. It also raises finances through private placements, structured finance, and strategic and financial advisory services. Danatama provides both a wealth of acquired knowledge and a far-flung network among local and international investors to make capital raising both an uncomplicated and rewarding experience for its clients.

Danatama also provides portfolio investment management services to both institutional and individual clients. Each of its client’s portfolios is managed in line with their particular investment objectives and constraints, creating unique – customized investment plans, fitting the client’s risk of return profile. In the current environment, where companies are struggling, it is inevitable that opportunities for M&A activity will grow and continue to expand. Consolidation is called for where competition is stiff, especially in the telecommunications and banking sectors, as well as in the natural resources sector, led by coal mining. Danatama, through its private equity and venture capital divisions, also takes minority stakes in companies, with a holding period of one to two years. It advises both the selling and buying parties and has a large balance sheet to provide for a pre-IPO bridge financing.

Danatama has attained its present reputable position in the investment banking industry by nurturing a long-term relationship with customers and its continuous dedication to providing personalized services for almost three decades. More than anything else, it understands that its own success depends on the success of its clients; both parties share a common goal. As an ambitious investment bank striving to continue to expand its market share, Danatama works hard to provide its customers with the most optimal and trusted services.
