World Bank: The Launch of Indonesia Economic Prospects

On the 16th of December, EuroCham was invited by the World Bank for the launch of the Indonesia Economic Prospects (IEP), December 2024 Edition. The IEP, a bi-annual flagship report, provides an objective and comprehensive analysis of Indonesia’s macroeconomic developments, policies, and outlook, alongside key thematic challenges facing the nation's economy.

The event began with opening remarks from Carrie Turk (Country Director for the World Bank Indonesia and Timor-Leste) followed by a welcome address by Tim Stapleton (Minister Counsellor at the Australian Embassy in Indonesia). A keynote address was delivered by Thomas A. M. Djiwandono (Vice Minister of Finance).

The highlight of the event was the presentation of the report by senior World Bank economists, Wael Mansour and Rong Qian, which was followed by an engaging panel discussion featuring representatives from DDTC, the University of Indonesia, and the Indonesia Business Council. The discussion was expertly moderated by Lars Christian Moller (Manager for the East Asia and Pacific Region at the World Bank).

We extend our heartfelt congratulations to the World Bank on the successful launch of this insightful report and express our gratitude for inviting EuroCham to this impactful event.
