Gateway to Growth – Legal and M&A Strategies in Thailand and Indonesia

As Hong Kong’s IPO market regains momentum and businesses diversify supply chains across Asia, Southeast Asia has become a magnet for capital from Hong Kong and international investors alike.

Thailand and Indonesia remain among the region’s most attractive investment destinations, supported by fast-growing consumer markets, significant FDI inflows, and a vibrant M&A scene. Meanwhile, international investors must navigate evolving regulations, a shifting landscape of cross-border investment structures, and increasing regulatory scrutiny.

DFDL is pleased to host a half-day seminar designed for lawyers, foreign investors, corporate groups, fund managers, business owners, and partners at international law firms advising clients on market entry, seeking practical insights into investing, expanding, acquiring businesses, or preparing for capital markets transactions involving Southeast Asian components.
