The general view among bankers in recent weeks has been that investors are primarily interested in big, liquid names, so it is encouraging to see that some do have an appetite for small deals in less actively traded stocks as well. Of course, it doesn’t hurt when the company in question is based in Indonesia and exposed to domestic consumption — two themes that investors have remained relatively enthusiastic about this year while the European headwinds have stifled the more export-oriented sectors and countries in Asia.
