CEO Danantara Indonesia, Rosan Roeslani, has stated that global\ninvestor confidence in Indonesia remains robust and high. Rosan said\nthis signal is reflected in the high international investor interest in\nDanantara Indonesia\u2019s inaugural US dollar-denominated global bond\nissuance, which was oversubscribed by more than three times.<\/p>\n
\u201cI convey that market confidence, the outside world\u2019s confidence in\nIndonesia, is very good. This is reflected in their willingness to buy\nDanantara global bonds with tenors of five years and 10 years, and they\neven told me they are very open if Danantara wants to issue bonds with a\ntenor of up to 30 years,\u201d Rosan said in a written statement in Jakarta\non Tuesday (16\/6\/2026).<\/p>\n
Rosan stated that Danantara initially targeted raising USD 1 billion\nthrough the global bond issuance. However, after conducting a series of\nroadshows to several global financial centres, investor demand reached\nUSD 4.6 billion.<\/p>\n
\u201cFrom the planned USD 1 billion we wanted to achieve, the book\nbuilding that came in was approximately USD 4.6 billion. So, we\neventually increased the issuance to USD 1.5 billion,\u201d Rosan said.<\/p>\n
According to Rosan, the high investor demand is a strong indicator\nthat the international market still places great confidence in\nIndonesia\u2019s economic prospects. This is especially significant as the\nbond issuance took place amid global economic uncertainty, rising\ngeopolitical tensions, and pressures that had previously affected the\ndomestic financial market.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is a very good result and it also proves that investor\nconfidence in Indonesia is high. And this is real,\u201d Rosan claimed.<\/p>\n
Rosan, who also serves as Minister of Investment and Downstream\nIndustry, added that the funds raised from the bond issuance are divided\ninto five-year and 10-year tenors, each valued at USD 750 million.<\/p>\n
Interestingly, Rosan noted, the coupon rates obtained were below\ninitial market expectations. The five-year bond was set with a yield of\n5.35 percent, while the 10-year bond was set at 5.95 percent.<\/p>\n
Rosan explained that several parties had previously estimated\nDanantara would need to offer higher yields to attract investors.\nHowever, the high market interest actually allowed the company to secure\ncompetitive interest rates.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf they didn\u2019t trust us, they would certainly have demanded a very\nhigh yield premium. They didn\u2019t ask for that; in fact, we see the yields\nare very competitive,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Furthermore, Rosan added that investor confidence is also reflected\nin the composition of buyers, which was dominated by investors from the\nUnited States and Europe. For the five-year tenor bonds, 38 percent of\ninvestors came from the United States, 41 percent from Europe and the\nMiddle East, and 21 percent from Asia. Meanwhile, for the 10-year tenor,\nUS investors dominated with a 52 percent share, followed by Europe and\nthe Middle East at 31 percent, and Asia at 17 percent.<\/p>\n
According to Rosan, this condition differs from the historical trend\nof Indonesian bond issuances, which are generally more sought after by\nAsian investors.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe largest interest actually came from the United States. This\nshows that global market confidence in Indonesia is very good,\u201d Rosan\nsaid.<\/p>\n
With demand reaching USD 4.6 billion, competitive yield levels, and\nhigh participation from US and European investors, Danantara\u2019s inaugural\nglobal bond issuance serves as a signal that Indonesia\u2019s access to\ninternational funding remains strong amid global economic challenges\nthat have yet to fully subside.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/danantara-ceo-claims-high-global-investor-confidence-in-indonesia-1781596372", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
