During her visit, Dame Susan met with senior Indonesian government officials, investors, and business leaders, including representatives from the Financial Services Authority (OJK), Indonesia Investment Authority (INA), and the Indonesian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (KADIN). Discussions focused on mobilising long-term capital, supporting infrastructure financing, strengthening capital markets, and advancing sustainable investment.
A dedicated insurance roundtable also explored opportunities for collaboration between London and Indonesia in disaster risk management, infrastructure insurance, climate resilience, energy security, and sustainable investment.
