The Commission for the Supervision of Business Competition (KPPU) has added new requirements for corporate mergers and acquisitions (M&As) via KPPU Regulation No. 2 of 2013 (Regulation), which is an amendment to KPPU Regulation No. 13 of 2010.
Ahmad Djunaidi, Head of Public Relations at KPPU, stated in a press release, Friday (10/5), that the Regulation has been signed by the Head of KPPU Nawur Messi on 5 April 2013.
He explained that the essential difference in the Regulation lies in the two additional document requirements for M&A notifications, namely a business plan for the next three years and data on the target market.
“Without these two documents, KPPU will not conduct assessment on the notification,” Djunaidi said.
In conducting corporate M&As, businesses must submit a notification to KPPU. Failure to submit such notification will result in IDR 1 billion administrative fine for each day of delay, with a maximum of IDR 25 billion.
Djunaidi further explained that the additional documents will also assist KPPU in conducting assessments, thus speeding up the assessment process as a whole.
“Submission of additional documents by businesses will accelerate the assessment process, therefore merger consultations and notifications will be implemented more effectively,” Djunaidi concluded.
