Rosan explained that the discussions in the meeting covered various important aspects that must be prepared thoroughly, from regulations to incentives. “(Discussing) the location, and what things need to be done, both in terms of regulations, laws, incentives, and others. That’s roughly the discussion, what homework we must follow up, including from the OJK side,” he clarified. Regarding the form of incentives to be provided, Rosan said the government is still in the exploration stage and will compare with various global financial centres. “That’s why we just talked about it earlier. This is our first meeting. Later, we will also look at comparisons with financial centres in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Singapore, and others,” he said. He also assured that the management of the Financial Centre will not directly be under Danantara, but a special authority will be formed. “Later, there will be its own authority body. In this case, we will be the initiators of the Financial Centre development itself,” he concluded.
