Jakarta – Investment realisation in DKI Jakarta Province continued to surge in 2025. According to data from the Ministry of Investment and Downstreaming/Investment Coordinating Board (BKPM), Jakarta's investment realisation in the first quarter of 2025 (January to March) was the highest in Indonesia, reaching Rp69.8 trillion across a total of 114,451 investment projects, contributing 15 per cent of total national investment realisation. The figure represented a sharp increase compared to Rp58.4 trillion recorded during the same period in 2024.

Head of the DKI Jakarta Provincial Investment and One-Stop Integrated Services Agency (DPMPTSP), Benni Aguscandra, stated that at the start of 2025, Jakarta's Domestic Direct Investment (PMDN) realisation also remained the highest compared to other regions in Indonesia, reaching Rp42.2 trillion or 18 per cent of total national PMDN realisation. Meanwhile, Foreign Direct Investment (PMA) realisation in DKI Jakarta reached USD 1.7 billion, contributing 11.9 per cent of total national PMA realisation.

"Jakarta's investment performance continues to record positive achievements. Cumulatively, PMDN and PMA investment realisation in DKI Jakarta in Q1 2025 reached Rp69.8 trillion. This is inseparable from the direction of the Governor of DKI Jakarta, who has instructed all ranks to consistently provide ease for investors, from simplifying permits to providing adequate infrastructure," said Benni at the DKI Jakarta Provincial Public Service Mall on Wednesday (30 April 2025).

Benni noted that the high investment realisation in DKI Jakarta Province proved that the various programmes undertaken by DPMPTSP had successfully driven investment growth. "This is the result of hard work and strong collaboration between the government, business actors, and the community. We will continue to ensure Jakarta remains an attractive investment destination," he added.

The DKI Jakarta Provincial Government also committed to continuing to drive inclusive and sustainable investment growth, strengthening Jakarta's position as a national and global economic centre. "As a national and global economic centre, Jakarta is expected to attract more investment in the future, which will positively impact the economy and public welfare," Benni affirmed.

**Leading Sectors: Jakarta's Investment Favourites**

Minister of Investment and Downstreaming/Head of BKPM, Rosan Roeslani, revealed that in Q1 2025, at least three sectors made the largest contributions to investment realisation in DKI Jakarta Province. These were Transport, Warehousing and Telecommunications at Rp24.5 trillion; Other Services at Rp16.6 trillion; and Housing, Industrial Estates and Office Buildings at Rp8.6 trillion.

"The Transport, Warehousing and Telecommunications sector is one of the reasons why investment in Jakarta has increased, followed by Other Services, then Housing, Industrial Estates and Office Buildings," said Rosan.

Rosan explained that overall investment realisation flowing into Indonesia in Q1 2025 reached Rp465.2 trillion, rising 15.9 per cent year-on-year. He said the high achievement was inseparable from collaboration between central and regional governments, particularly DPMPTSP agencies that have continued to improve service systems and simplify permits.

"Stability is the main measure for their investment decisions. We continue to improve the investment climate, providing greater certainty in terms of timing, permits, and most importantly what we are now continuously refining — cross-ministry and cross-agency permit coordination that will provide greater certainty on timeframes," said Rosan.

Rosan expressed optimism that the national investment target for 2025 of Rp1,905.6 trillion could be achieved. He stated that various ongoing investment commitments and those yet to be realised showed a positive trajectory. "God willing, we can achieve this target by the end of 2025. Hopefully we can exceed it, but again this depends on the investment realisation they have committed in Indonesia," Rosan concluded.

**Investment Realisation Throughout 2024**

DKI Jakarta Province also recorded outstanding investment achievements throughout January to December 2024. According to BKPM data, cumulative PMDN and PMA investment realisation in DKI Jakarta throughout 2024 reached a total of Rp241.9 trillion, a sharp increase compared to Rp166.7 trillion throughout 2023.

Jakarta successfully achieved PMDN realisation of Rp128.4 trillion or 15.8 per cent of total national PMDN realisation, placing it first nationally. Meanwhile, PMA realisation in DKI Jakarta Province throughout 2024 also recorded a positive achievement of USD 7.6 billion or approximately Rp113.5 trillion, contributing 12.6 per cent of total national PMA realisation.
