You Came to Build a Business—Not to Risk Your Stay in Indonesia

Foreign Investors Mastermind
Many foreigners come to Indonesia with the same goal: invest in an opportunity, establish a company and build something meaningful.

But not every investor intends to play the same role.

Some provide capital and allow other people to manage the company. Others want to lead the team, make decisions and actively manage daily operations. Problems can arise when what an investor actually does does not match their position in the company or their immigration status.

This practical mastermind will help foreign founders and investors understand how their intended involvement should be considered when structuring a PT PMA.

Topics We’ll Cover
1. Passive investor versus active business operator
2. The roles of shareholders, directors and commissioners
3. How your level of involvement affects your company structure
4. The relationship between your corporate role and immigration status
5. Why being an investor does not automatically cover every operational activity
6. Common PT PMA, visa and compliance mistakes
7. Risks of relying completely on third parties without understanding your structure
8. What existing PT PMA owners should review
9. Important questions to answer before investing or becoming operationally active

The session will include guided discussion, practical examples and audience Q&A, facilitated by Aspire’s Client Advisory and Corporate Services teams.

This event is suitable for:
1. Foreigners planning to establish a PT PMA
2. Foreign investors entering the Indonesian market
3. Foreign shareholders who want to manage daily operations

6. Foreign founders concerned about their visa or immigration compliance

4. When your situation requires a private professional assessment
5. Individual structures and immigration situations vary. Case-specific recommendations can be discussed privately with Aspire after the session.
