Sinarmas Asset Management (AM) anticipates that 2026 will be a crucial transition period for the global economy. Changes in interest rate policies, technological developments, and geopolitical dynamics are expected to continue influencing the direction of global financial markets.
Sinarmas AM Chief Executive Officer Alex Setyawan WK emphasised the importance of balance in investment strategy amid market complexity.

According to Money, Indonesia’s investment management industry is showing positive development as financial literacy increases and investor participation in the capital markets grows.
As of January 2026, the total assets under management across Indonesia’s investment management industry exceeded Rp 1.058 trillion, with 2,385 total products and more than 20 million customers. This growth reflects increasing investor confidence in professionally managed investment instruments and demonstrates the strategic role the investment manager industry plays in supporting the development of the national financial market.
Sinarmas Asset Management continues to strengthen its position as one of Indonesia’s leading investment managers. Currently, Sinarmas AM manages approximately Rp 65 trillion in assets under management (AUM). The company’s performance growth is driven by disciplined investment management strategy, product innovation, and strengthening of its extensive distribution network through various strategic partners.
Additionally, the company continues to develop various investment solutions that provide Indonesian investors with access to global investment opportunities.
As part of this commitment, during its 2026 Market Outlook event, Sinarmas Asset Management introduced a new product in the form of a Global Mutual Fund based on the S&P 500 ESG Shariah Index.
