CIMB Group Holdings Bhd. says it sees a “good time” to invest in Indonesia and is looking for merger and acquisition opportunities in the country. The comments come as investor confidence in Southeast Asia’s largest economy is weakened, reflecting broader market caution around Indonesia’s outlook. CIMB, Malaysia’s second-biggest bank, is positioning its strategy toward deals in Indonesia rather than pulling back due to the current sentiment. Both reports describe the same core message: CIMB is actively exploring potential transactions in Indonesia, even as the environment is marked by a slump in regional investor confidence. The bank’s approach is framed as taking advantage of conditions that may make targets more accessible or valuations more attractive. The sources do not specify particular targets, deal sizes, or timelines, and they do not provide additional details on the drivers of Indonesia’s investor-confidence decline. Overall, the reporting focuses on CIMB’s intent to pursue Indonesia-linked M&A as part of its regional growth efforts.
