Economic and Political Analysis

Since August 1996 GFA has provided regular detailed political and economic analysis to clients. GFA has on request also provided reports on specific economic, political, social and regional issues of interest to clients. This service continues. Our current focus is the 2004 elections.

All GFA analysis since 1996 is available to clients on this website (Clients Only Reports). Access to this material is available to clients by password. Reporting done specifically for one client is accessible only to that client.

GFA has provided some examples of monthly GFA reporting at Sample Reports. Those interested in accessing this wealth of high quality political, economic, social and regional analysis of Indonesia since the end of the Soeharto era are urged to visit the Reports section to see several examples.

Do you have investments or assets in Indonesia? Is the current uncertainty in the Indonesian market a surprise to you? Can the market revive? What are the prospects for business and investment? Will the Presidential elections and the likely winners make a difference? Do you need to know the likely path of political and economic developments in the coming years and how they could affect you and your business?

If the answers to these questions are "yes", you should be subscribing to GFA&A's analytical services.

Each month GFA&A prepares a monthly update which is sent to clients within a maximum of three days after the end of the month. When events dictate, GFA&A also prepares special analysis for all clients. There are a number of examples of this at the moment in relation to the elections. These interim updates are sent off immediately, so that clients have up-to-date analysis. See Sample Reports for samples of monthly and special GFA&A reports.

The usual fee for all this reporting is AUD1,000 per month, billed monthly. For this price, GFA&A also offers face to face briefings to clients. Clients are also able to telephone for briefings and comment at times like the present when events are moving quickly.
