JAKARTA, investor.id — Investment Minister and Head of the Investment Coordinating Board (BKPM) Rosan Roeslani expressed confidence that the 2025 investment target of Rp 1,905.6 trillion can be achieved. However, the government also acknowledges the pressures from the global economy that are affecting investment.

"God willing, it will be achieved. Indeed, it represents a 15.9% increase from the previous year's investment target. We must admit it is not easy, but we are optimistic given the investment commitments already underway. Some have been completed, some are just beginning, and some are already in progress," said Rosan during a press conference on Q1 2025 Investment Realisation held in hybrid format at the Ministry of Investment and Downstreaming/BKPM on Tuesday (29/4/2025).

According to data from the Ministry of Investment and Downstreaming/BKPM, investment realisation in Q1 2025 reached Rp 465.2 trillion. Domestic direct investment (DDI) amounted to Rp 234.8 trillion, or 50.5% of total investment realisation, whilst foreign direct investment (FDI) reached Rp 230.4 trillion, or 49.3% of total investment realisation.

He stated that the government continues to safeguard existing investment commitments to ensure they can be implemented promptly, as investments can only be recorded once they have been realised.

Downstreaming is expected to bolster investment realisation in 2025. Investment in the downstreaming sector reached Rp 136.3 trillion in Q1 2025. Compared with the previous quarter, this represents growth of 1.04%. When compared with Q1 2024, growth stood at 79.82%, up from Rp 75.8 trillion at that time.

Downstreaming investment contributed 29.3% to total investment realisation in Q1 2025. This figure marks an increase, as over the past three years downstreaming had only contributed 24% to investment realisation. This improvement is attributed to the optimal processing of downstream derivative products.

"We see things are still going well, and downstreaming appears to be increasing — it could potentially reach 30% of total investment, as we are seeing continued growth in downstreaming investment. This is in line with government programmes," said Rosan.
