Reuters Jakarta, October 22 - Indonesia's sovereign wealth fund, Danantara Indonesia, has been buying stocks it considers attractive, the fund's Chief Investment Officer said on Thursday, noting that several companies, including state-owned enterprises, still have solid fundamentals.
Pandu Sjahrir made these remarks at a press conference that followed a large-scale sell-off in the stock market last Friday, after MSCI warned it might downgrade Indonesia’s stock market to “standalone” market status.
