About
A Debt Equity Swap (DES) is a sophisticated corporate action where a company’s debt is converted into shares. This is common for PT PMAs that have received significant “Shareholder Loans” from their HQ. We manage the legal resolutions, the valuation requirements, and the amendment of the Notarial Deed to reflect the new capital structure.
Why Choose Our DES Service?
In 2026, the Indonesian Tax Office (DJP) closely monitors Debt-to-Equity Ratios (DER). A DES is a powerful tool to bring your company into compliance. We ensure the process follows the Company Law requirements for “Capital Increase without Cash” (Pre-emptive rights).
Benefits of Our Service
Improved Credit Rating: A better balance sheet for local bank loans.
Regulatory Compliance: Meets BKPM’s requirements for realized investment.
Interest Savings: Stops the accrual of interest on intercompany debt.
