Indonesia

When it comes to the investment banking league table in Indonesia, there’s Credit Suisse and then there’s daylight. In 2016-2017, it was first in equity capital markets, first in mergers and acquisitions, and first in non-sovereign loans. The only big table it did not top was sovereign loans, where it was sixth behind leaders HSBC and Deutsche Bank among others.

With its 15 million customers, 1,200 branches and more than 17,200 ATMs, Bank Central Asia (BCA) is the largest privately-owned bank in Indonesia, and the third biggest as measured by assets, loans and deposits, after the state-owned duo Bank Mandiri and Bank Rakyat Indonesia (BRI).
