Rosan Roeslani Targets RI Investment To Reach IDR 13 Trillion In 5 Years

Minister of Investment and Downstream/Investment Coordinating Board Rosan Roeslani is targeting an increase in investment value within five years to achieve economic growth of 8 percent. "We hope that our contribution will be more than IDR 13 (thousand) trillion in the next 5 years," said Rosan in an online discussion session broadcast via Kabar Bursa YouTube, Friday, June 13, 2025. 

Rosan said that in the last 10 years, the amount of Indonesian investment from both domestic and international investors has reached IDR 9,100 trillion. 

The former Deputy Minister of SOEs said that investment is a crucial element in economic growth. Rosan also touched on Indonesia's economic growth in the first quarter of 2025. 

He said that the investment sector contributed the second largest after household consumption, namely 53 percent to economic growth with a share of around 29 percent. "If we look at the current situation, where can our economic growth be driven from? The most likely is from investment, at this moment." 

Therefore, he hopes that the investment value in Indonesia can skyrocket to boost the economic growth target of 8 percent in 2029. "Next year, growth is expected to jump very significantly, in order for us to achieve 8 percent growth," he said. 

The World Bank has lowered its prediction of Indonesia's economic growth to 4.7 percent for the 2025 period, from the previous 5 percent. In addition, the Indonesian economy is estimated to only grow at an average of 4.8 percent until 2027. 

In the April 2025 edition of the Macro Poverty Outlook report, the World Bank said that poverty and unemployment in Indonesia have decreased, but the creation of middle-class jobs is lagging behind. 

Therefore, structural reforms are needed to accelerate growth, as well as caution in determining fiscal and monetary policies. "Global and domestic policy uncertainty has triggered portfolio outflows that have put pressure on the rupiah. Economic growth is projected to average 4.8 percent through 2027, but uncertainty in trade policy could affect investment and growth," the World Bank wrote in a report released on Thursday, April 10, 2025. 

In addition to the World Bank, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) has also previously cut its projection for Indonesia's economic growth. In its Economic Outlook report, the OECD predicted that Indonesia's economy would only grow 4.7 percent in 2025, down from its projection in March 2025 of 4.9 percent. The France-based organization views Indonesia's weakening economic growth as related to domestic policy uncertainty, as well as weakening external demand due to rising global trade tensions. 

Although low inflation and loose financial conditions are expected to boost private consumption and investment, the OECD warns that uncertainty over the direction of domestic fiscal policy could dampen the positive impact. "Export growth is also expected to slow amid global trade tensions," the OECD wrote in its report released on June 3, 2025.
