Jakarta — Throughout the first quarter of 2025, investment realisation in DKI Jakarta Province reached Rp69.8 trillion, the highest of all provinces in Indonesia. The data was released by the Ministry of Investment and Downstreaming/Investment Coordinating Board (BKPM), confirming Jakarta's strategic position as the primary magnet for investors, both domestic and foreign.

Head of the DKI Jakarta Provincial Investment and One-Stop Integrated Services Agency (DPMPTSP), Benni Aguscandra, stated that this achievement was a tangible result of various provincial government initiatives to continuously provide ease of doing business for investors.

"The investment performance of DKI Jakarta continues to record positive results. This is inseparable from the direction of the Governor of DKI Jakarta for all his staff to consistently provide ease for investors, from simplifying permits to providing adequate infrastructure," said Benni in a statement in Jakarta on Thursday (2 May 2025).

During January to March 2025, the investment realisation was spread across 114,451 investment projects, contributing 15 per cent of the total national investment realisation. This figure increased compared to the same period in 2024, which reached Rp58.4 trillion.

In detail, Domestic Direct Investment (PMDN) in DKI Jakarta reached Rp42.2 trillion, accounting for approximately 18 per cent of the national PMDN total. This figure simultaneously placed Jakarta as the region with the highest PMDN realisation in all of Indonesia.

Meanwhile, Foreign Direct Investment (PMA) realisation in Jakarta was recorded at US$1.7 billion, contributing approximately 11.9 per cent to the national PMA total.

According to Benni, the high investment realisation in DKI Jakarta serves as proof that the various programmes implemented by the DKI Jakarta Provincial DPMPTSP have successfully driven investment growth.

"This is the result of hard work and strong collaboration between the government, business players, and the community. We will continue to ensure Jakarta remains an attractive investment destination," he said.

The DKI Jakarta Provincial Government also reaffirmed its commitment to driving inclusive and sustainable investment growth as part of efforts to strengthen Jakarta's role as a national and international economic centre.

"As a national and global economic centre, Jakarta is expected to attract more investment in the future, which will certainly have a positive impact on the economy and public welfare," said Benni.

Data from the Ministry of Investment and Downstreaming/BKPM recorded that during Q1 2025, three main sectors were the largest contributors to investment realisation in DKI Jakarta. The transportation, warehousing and telecommunications sector led with investment value reaching Rp24.5 trillion, followed by other services at Rp16.6 trillion, and housing, industrial estates and office space at Rp8.6 trillion.
