LICAH Investment Academy Launches AI-Driven Dual-Track Curriculum to Close Southeast Asia's Financial Literacy Gap
LICAH Investment Academy has rolled out an upgraded Dual-Track curriculum aimed at the skills gap facing new and intermediate retail investors across Southeast Asia. Indonesia's 2024 National Survey by OJK reported a financial literacy index of 65.43%, yet advanced risk management and market analysis remain weak spots for many retail participants. With more people trading through apps, structured education is becoming a must-have-not a nice-to-have.
The program pairs institutional-grade investment practice with mindset development, building a foundation that helps investors move past ad-hoc trades and short-term bias. The goal: help individuals think and operate more like professionals, even with smaller portfolios.
What's Inside the Dual-Track Program
- Mindset & Psychology Construction: Correct common behavioral biases, build rules, and create discipline that lasts through cycles.
- AI-Powered Market Analysis: Use proprietary tools for data analysis, trend spotting, and smarter security selection.
- Institutional Risk Management: Translate asset allocation and risk controls used by pros into individual portfolios.
"Investment is not a gamble of probabilities; it is an elevation of awareness. In the long run, your cognitive awareness determines your wealth ceiling," said Budi Sutrisno, Founder of LICAH Investment Academy. "We are seeing a surge in retail investors who have access to tools but lack the foundational mindset. Our mission is to bridge this gap by combining institutional-grade strategies with the latest AI technology."
Why This Matters for Finance Professionals
- Fewer avoidable errors: Bias-aware training reduces overtrading, performance-chasing, and poor sizing.
- Better portfolio resilience: Risk budgeting, drawdown controls, and scenario thinking help normalize decision quality under stress.
- Faster research cycles: AI-driven screening and data triage shorten the path from hypothesis to shortlist.
- Clear client education: Mindset modules give advisors a structure to coach retail clients beyond tips and tickers.
Adoption and Reach
Founded in 2019 by practitioners with Wall Street and private banking backgrounds, LICAH prioritizes practice over theory. The academy now trains 3,000+ learners annually and reports a 96% satisfaction rate. Alumni span Indonesia, Malaysia, Vietnam, and other markets, building a cross-border network of more disciplined investors.
