Sandiaga Salahuddin Uno, also knowns as Sandi Uno (born in Rumbai, Pekanbaru on June 28, 1969) is one of Indonesia's richest men with estimated net worth of $795 million.[1]

Career

Sandi Uno graduated summa cum laude from Wichita State University, United States. He began his career with Bank Summa in 1990. A year later he obtained the scholarship to continue his education at George Washington University, USA and graduated with GPA of 4.00.[2]

In 1994, he joined MP Group Holding Limited as an investment manager. In 1995, he moved to NTI Resources Ltd in Canada and worked as Executive Vice President in the company. Unfortunately, the monetary crisis in 1997 hit NTI Resources Ltd hard and caused it to go into administration and left Sandi unemployed.

This prompted Sandi to return to Indonesia. Seeing no real future as an employee, he decided to set up and run his own business. In 1997, he co-founded PT Recapital Advisors with his high school friend, Rosan Perkasa Roeslani and in 1998, he co-founded Saratoga Capital with Edwin Soeryadjaya. Twelve years later, Saratoga Capital is one of Indonesia's largest investment firms employing more than 20,000 people.

In 2009, Sandi Uno is listed as 29th richest man in Indonesia according to Forbes magazine.[2]

On May 2011, he bought 51 percent shares of Mandala Airlines.[3]
