INDUSTRY.co.id - Jakarta - Multinational insurance company, Allianz, invested USD 35 million or approximately Rp 481.63 billion in the last funding round of Go-Jek. Allianz channeled funding through its digital investment business unit, Allianz X.

CEO of Allianz X Nazim Cetin stated that the investment of Go-Jek is the first investment made by Allianz X in Southeast Asia.

Allianz's strategic investment in Go-Jek is our commitment to develop the growth of digital business, especially in emerging markets, he said in a press release on Thursday (12/4/2018).

According to him, Go-Jek has successfully proven his track record as a company that provides transportation, logistics, and payment services. And we want to support the sustainability of their growth, he said.

Allianz Life Indonesia President Director Joos Louwerier says Go-Jek has been transformed into a huge on-demand service provider. Go-Jek, which started as a ride-hailing app, also expanded its service to the logistics, payment, and mobile-based food delivery business.

Allianz X's decision to invest in GO-JEK is one proof of Allianz Group's strategic move to grow the digital business, says Joos Louwerier.

Go-Jek is a digital unicorn in Indonesia, through this investment, Allianz and Go-Jek will further strengthen collaboration. Together we can offer unique financial products and services to the broader Go-Jek community. "

Go-Jek now has over one million registered driver partners in the app. In addition, there are more than 150,000 food sales partners integrated with Go-Food services. All services available within the Go-Jek app are available in more than 50 cities in Indonesia.
