Heaptalk, Jakarta – In light of the recent announcement by U.S. President Donald Trump to impose new trade tariffs ranging from 10% to 46% on most countries, global financial markets, including Indonesia, are experiencing significant volatility.
Amid declining performance across various investment instruments, gold is emerging as a strong option for portfolio diversification. Often referred to as a “safe haven” asset, gold has historically shown resilience against inflation and global crises.
Edy Setiawan, CEO of LAKUEMAS, stated, “We are currently witnessing a surge in public interest toward gold investment. The recent upward trend in gold prices, despite a brief correction, is a strong indicator that gold continues to be a favorite choice for asset protection.”
Long queues at gold outlets and large crowds at gold exhibitions reflect the sustained public interest in physical gold. In response to this demand, LAKUEMAS — a trusted digital gold investment platform in Indonesia — is providing an easy, fast, and secure way to buy, sell, and store gold digitally.
With the lowest price spread among similar platforms, LAKUEMAS offers greater value for both novice and seasoned investors. No more long lines or storage worries — LAKUEMAS enables anyone to invest in gold starting from small amounts, anytime and anywhere. Digital gold is not just a trend; it is an inclusive and efficient long-term investment solution.
As an omni-channel platform, LAKUEMAS is highly flexible in facilitating both digital and physical gold transactions. The company operates physical outlets known as Butik LAKUEMAS, serving offline buying, selling, and pawning services. It also offers a user-friendly app for seamless online transactions and is part of the Central Mega Kencana (CMK) Group ecosystem — which includes renowned jewelry brands like Mondial, Frank & Co, and The Palace — making it the largest jewelry retail group in Southeast Asia.
Officially registered with Indonesia’s Commodity Futures Trading Regulatory Agency (BAPPEBTI) since February 8, 2022, LAKUEMAS is backed by a fully integrated gold and diamond ecosystem supported by robust infrastructure. These credentials solidify the CMK Group’s reputation as a trusted and experienced leader in the precious metals and jewelry industry.
