VANESSA OKTANIA, S.H., LL.M.
Managing Partner
As one of the founding partners of OWP, Vanessa brings over 15 years of legal experience to the table. Prior to establishing her own practice, she had an extensive career with Ginting & Reksodiputro (in association with Allen & Overy LLP) — where she helped developed its banking and finance practice.
She graduated with a Bachelor Degree in Law by the University of Indonesia in 2005, and continued her academic pursuit by earning LL.M. Degree in International Finance Law at King’s College London in 2009.
She has also advised and represented various international banks and financial institutions in carrying out major transactions in Indonesia.
With her deep knowledge of the complexities of Indonesia’s corporate environment, she is well-versed in advising clients on a variety of actions, such as acquisition, private placement, debt restructuring, loan transfers, and general commercial matters.
She has also successfully advised a number of major Indonesian state-owned enterprises, international private equity firms, listed companies and financial institutions in various sectors — such as chemical industry, fertiliser industry, mining, palm-oil plantation in Indonesia and Malaysia, and healthcare services — which proves her exceptional ability to guide clients through a wide range of investment environment.
Vanessa is a registered member of Indonesian Bar Association (PERADI).
BRAMASTA NOVIANTARA GIRINDRA WARDHANA, S.H.
Partner
Bramasta graduated from the University of Indonesia’s Faculty of Law in 2007, where he focused on business and corporate law. Having kickstarted his law career with one of the most prominent law firms in Indonesia, Aji Wijaya & Co, over the years Bramasta had acquired an intimate knowledge of various fields of law — leading to his appointment as Partner in 2014, and culminating in his decision to co-found OWP in 2021.
Cognisant of Indonesia’s growing economic clout and the increasing complexity of relationships in the era of globalisation, over the past five years, Bramasta has expanded his scope of practice to include litigation — particularly in-court debt restructuring process (PKPU). Since then, he has successfully guided no less than 10 companies through the process.
With his deep interest in capital markets, merger and acquisitions and corporate restructuring, throughout his career Bramasta has shown an exceptional ability to navigate a wide array of cases. His attention to detail means clients can rest easy knowing that OWP will be able to guide them through any transaction, from cross-border asset reorganisation, to investments in plants and plantations.
