The first report in a special series about
environmental, social, and governance (ESG) risks in ASEAN,
Association of Southeast Asian Nations
RepRisk, the leading provider of dynamic business intelligence
on ESG risks, is pleased to publish its Special Report on
Indonesia, the first in its series on ASEAN, an economic and
political organization of 10 countries.
The creation of the ASEAN Economic Community on November 22,
2015 has opened up exciting new opportunities for companies wishing
to invest in, and trade with, this dynamic region in Asia. Its
strategic location, abundance of natural resources, growing
population, and expanding middle classes offers diverse investment
opportunities for globally active companies. The creation of a
unified market will enhance these opportunities and enable ASEAN to
compete effectively in world markets.
With opportunities, however, come challenges as well. These
include helping to ensure that all societies, including indigenous
communities, will benefit from the economic expansion. Care must
also be taken to preserve the region’s resources and fragile
ecosystems.
In this first report, RepRisk has identified and assessed the
ESG risks facing Indonesia, the largest economy in the ASEAN bloc.
It is the fourth most populous country in the world and is ranked
as the world’s tenth largest economy.
