  • XL Axiata Green-Lighted for Merger Plan with Axis
    XL Axiata Green-Lighted For Merger Plan With Axis Indonesia’s antimonopoly commission has approved a planned merger by XL Axiata and Axis Telekom Indonesia, the latest of such approvals after other regulators made gave their go-ahead. “XL Axiata has secured approval from KPPU on March 6,” Murni Nurdini, XL’s corporate secretary said, referring to the antimonopoly commission by its Indonesian name in a statement on Monday. The KPPU has reason to be wary of monopolies in the industry, after finding six telecommunications companies guilty of collusion to fix SMS prices in 2008, dishing out fines worth $10 million. The approval should help boost confidence among XL Axiata’s management that the merger may be concluded by the end of this month. The approval is the latest after it obtained approval from the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology in February last month. The Financial Services Authority (OJK) has also okayed the merger plan. The OJK supervises listed companies, including XL Axiata. Shareholders have also given their nod to the plan. “We are grateful for the KPPU’s support to the merger and acquisition plan. It is a crucial milestone for consolidation of the national telecommunications industry,” said Hasnul Suhaimi, president director of XL Axiata. “By obtaining the approval from KPPU, we have complied with all the regulatory requirements in the conditional sale and purchase agreement. An XL – AXIS merger will provide substantial benefits for customers, as well as creating a healthier ecosystem in the telecommunications industry,” Hasnul said. He said the merger will not trigger any monopolistic practices.

During the second half of the year, however, the global economy lost some momentum, mainly on account of the increased trade frictions between the US and China, and the tightening of financial conditions. International Monetary Fund (IMF) expects growth to decelerate to 3.3% in 2019 and its projections suggest that all three major engines of the global economy, viz. US, China and Euro area are likely to decelerate in 2019. On the positive side, however, IMF expects world economic output to recover and grow at 3.6% in 2020. Of late, there have been a few growth-supportive factors such as the announcement of economic stimulus in China and halt to the process of monetary policy tightening in developed countries. But the business sentiment has become somewhat clouded with challenges arising from the apparent setback to the US-China trade talks, the spread Macroeconomic of trade frictions to technology sectors and the increased stability indicators intermingling of economic policies.
