Nearly Rp 2,000 Trillion in Investment Opportunities Unrealised in 2024, Says Deputy Investment Minister
Jakarta, CNBC Indonesia — Deputy Minister of Investment and Downstreaming/Deputy Head of the Investment Coordinating Board (BKPM) Todotua Pasaribu estimated that in 2024, nearly Rp 2,000 trillion in investment opportunities failed to materialise.
Pasaribu made the remarks at a Public Consultation on the Draft Regulation of the Minister of Investment and Downstreaming on Thursday (3 July 2025).
According to Pasaribu, the shortfall was caused by complicated licensing processes, an unconducive investment climate, and various overlapping policies. These factors resulted in recorded investment plans failing to materialise, constituting unrealised investment.
The Ministry of Investment and Downstreaming has since conducted evaluations and implemented bureaucratic reforms to improve a number of regulations aimed at facilitating and accelerating investment realisation.
For the record, Indonesia's investment realisation in 2024 reached Rp 1,700 trillion, exceeding the target of Rp 1,650 trillion.
