Equity and Controller

The acquisition will lead to a change in the controlling shareholder of the company. As control shifts to the new shareholder who has acquired the company, changes in management and operations are likely to follow. These adjustments may be implemented to align with the strategic vision and objectives of the new controller, potentially influencing the company’s leadership and day-to-day business activities.

Legal Compliance and Documentation

The acquisition must comply with Indonesian regulations, ensuring that all legal requirements are met throughout the process. In the case of an insurance brokerage company, the acquisition must secure approval from Otoritas Jasa Keuangan. Additionally, the entire transaction must be properly documented in legal documents, such as a notarial deed, to formalize the acquisition and ensure compliance with applicable laws.
