First Quarter 2025 Investment Realisation Reaches 24.4 Per Cent of Annual Target
JAKARTA — Investment realisation for the first quarter of 2025 has reached 24.4 per cent of the full-year target. According to Minister of Downstreaming and Investment/Head of the Investment Coordinating Board (BKPM) Rosan P Roeslani, first quarter investment realisation stood at Rp 465.2 trillion, against a total 2025 target of Rp 1,905.6 trillion.
"Investment in the first quarter has been on target. Investment that has come in and been realised amounts to Rp 465.2 trillion, or approximately 24.4 per cent of the total," said Rosan at a press conference on first quarter investment realisation at the Ministry of Investment office in Jakarta on Tuesday (29/4/2025).
Compared with the same period last year, first quarter 2025 investment realisation recorded a 15.9 per cent increase, up from Rp 401.5 trillion in the previous year.
The Rp 465.2 trillion in realised investment absorbed 594,104 workers, an increase of 8.5 per cent from the previous year.
"This is also a very good and positive indicator amid the current heightening geopolitical and geoeconomic conditions," said Rosan.
Rosan disclosed that first quarter investment realisation comprised foreign direct investment of Rp 230.4 trillion (49.5 per cent) and domestic investment of Rp 234.8 trillion (50.5 per cent).
In terms of geographic distribution, investment outside Java was greater than on Java. "That is Rp 235.9 trillion [outside Java] and Rp 229.3 trillion on Java," said Rosan.
The largest investing countries were Singapore (US$4.6 billion), followed by Hong Kong (US$2.2 billion), China (US$1.8 billion), Malaysia (US$1 billion), and Japan (US$1 billion).
The sectors attracting the largest investment were basic metals, metal goods, non-machinery equipment including smelters (14.5 per cent), transportation, warehousing and communications (14.3 per cent), mining (10.4 per cent), other services (8.8 per cent), and industrial estates and offices (8.1 per cent).
Rosan added that his ministry remains confident investment growth over the remaining three quarters will continue positively, though he acknowledged this would not be easy to achieve given the global tariff war situation.
