Danantara Investment Won't Disrupt BUMN Assets, Data to Be Made Public

Chief Operating Officer of Danantara and Head of the BUMN Regulatory Body, Dony Oskaria, has confirmed that investment activities carried out by the Danantara Investment Management Agency will not disrupt the assets of state-owned enterprises (BUMN). He stated that since its inception, Danantara was designed with a risk protection mechanism through the separation of asset management and investment functions. This scheme aims to maintain the health of BUMN while allowing Danantara to carry out its investment role professionally. According to him, this separation ensures that investment risks do not directly impact BUMN assets within Danantara’s portfolio. The funds used for investment also do not come from the core assets of BUMN, but rather from dividends generated by the state-owned companies. With this design, Danantara is expected to drive national economic growth without sacrificing prudential principles in managing state assets. Furthermore, Dony emphasised that Danantara is committed to transparency in reporting its investment achievements to the public. ‘The President stressed the importance of public information disclosure. We have received firm instructions to convey all achievements and investment data transparently to the public,’ he said. Dony noted that the President’s directive is part of the government’s effort to pursue not only the quantity but also the quality of investments entering Indonesia. Previously, President Prabowo had convened a limited meeting with members of the Red and White Cabinet to discuss the high level of global investor interest in Indonesia on Sunday (14/6).
