Interest rate policy changes, technological developments, and geopolitical dynamics will continue to shape the direction of global financial markets.

Jakarta (ANTARA) – The Chief Executive Officer of Sinarmas Asset Management, Alex Setyawan WK, estimates that 2026 will become an important transition period for the global economy.

“Interest rate policy changes, technological developments, and geopolitical dynamics will continue to shape the direction of global financial markets,” he said during the Market Outlook – The Art of Harmony 2026: “Economic Fengshui & Strategic Allocation in a New Global Cycle” event, according to official statements in Jakarta on Wednesday.

In increasingly complex market conditions, he continued, investors need to find balance or harmony in their investment strategies. This includes disciplined risk management, global diversification, and the selection of investment instruments with strong and sustainable fundamentals.

He noted that the investment management industry in Indonesia continues to demonstrate positive development alongside increased financial literacy and investor participation in the capital market.

As of January 2026, the total assets under management of Indonesia’s investment management industry reached more than Rp1.058 trillion with a total of 2,385 products and more than 20 million clients.

This growth is considered to reflect increased investor confidence in professionally managed investment instruments, whilst also demonstrating the strategic role of the investment management industry in supporting the development of the national financial market.

Amid these industry developments, Alex said, Sinarmas Asset Management continues to strengthen its position as one of Indonesia’s investment managers.

Currently, Sinarmas Asset Management manages assets under management (AUM) of approximately Rp65 trillion with company performance growth driven by disciplined investment management strategies, product innovation, and strengthening of an extensive distribution network through various strategic partners.

Additionally, the company is said to be developing various investment solutions that provide Indonesian investors with access to global investment opportunities.

As part of this commitment, at the 2026 Market Outlook event, the company introduced a new product: a Global Mutual Fund based on the S&P 500 ESG Shariah Index.

This product is designed to provide Indonesian investors with access to investing in diversified global companies whilst adhering to Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles and Islamic finance principles.

“We hope that through this product, investors can gain exposure to global companies with strong governance standards and sustainability practices, whilst participating in global economic growth,” said Chief Investment Officer of Sinarmas Asset Management, Genta Wira Anjalu.
