Jakarta, February 7th, 2022 – Technology is one of the fast-growing industries in most countries across the globe, including Indonesia. The digital adoption trend has affected how technological innovation is implemented in different platforms. In response to this, PT Bank Central Asia Tbk. (BCA) and investment management firm PT Batavia Prosperindo Aset Manajemen (BPAM) have launched Batavia Technology Sharia Equity USD (BTSEU), providing a sharia-compliant mutual fund service amidst the rise of the technology sector in the global market.

After the launch, BTSEU will be made available in BCA, providing people with an alternative financial instrument for investment. 

"The fast-paced development of technology has certainly affected people's lives. These days, people of different social classes have been using technology, and it has become an integral part of and cannot be separated from our lives. Technology poses a huge development potential; it is one of the attractive sectors to invest in. Moreover, Indonesia maintains a positive investment climate, and people are more motivated to invest. With the increasing number of choices for investment, we believe it is important to diversify our customer investment portfolio. So, to welcome the enthusiasm, BCA now offers BTSEU, allowing customers to diversify their investment instruments, driven by the technology trend worldwide," said BCA Deputy President Director Suwignyo Budiman. 

BPAM's Chief Executive Officer Lilis Setiadi said, "We are pleased with the launch of the BTSEU Mutual Fund. We believe this mutual fund can serve the needs of investors who wish to put their money into world-class, megatrend tech companies. In partnership with Franklin Templeton (one of the world's leading investment management firms) as our technical advisor, we believe BTSEU is the right instrument for our customers to benefit from the massive growth in the technology sector.”

Investing in the technology sector can yield attractive returns as digital transformation spending is estimated to reach trillions of dollars. The US and global tech stocks have also seen a lucrative prospect, with big and small enterprises recording promising growth.
