Rosan Reveals Investment Interest in Indonesia Remains High

Investment Minister/Investment Coordinating Board (BKPM) Rosan Roeslani has revealed that investment interest in Indonesia remains quite high amid the current global geopolitical and geo-economic conditions.

According to BKPM records, the total number of Business Identification Numbers (NIBs) in Indonesia from the period 2021-2026 has already reached 15.8 million.

In a meeting with Commission XII of the Indonesian House of Representatives (DPR RI), Rosan stated that this upward trend occurred following the implementation of Government Regulation number 28 of 2025 on the Implementation of Risk-Based Business Licensing.

“NIBs since 2021-2026 have already reached 15.8 million recorded with us. I want to convey that since the implementation of PP 28, before the programme, we had 13 million, now 15.8 million,” said Rosan.

“So investment interest is high. Our figures are real, we capture all the data. Complete with company names, addresses, business fields, and others. This shows that investments are running and enthusiastic, and in fact, in the last five months, there has been an increase,” Rosan added.

According to him, up to the first quarter of 2026, investment realisation in Indonesia has reached Rp497 trillion from a target of Rp465 trillion, or growing 7% annually.

“Job absorption has reached 627,036 people or up around 5.5%,” he said.

Meanwhile, this year’s total investment target for Indonesia is Rp2,041.3 trillion, up from the previous year’s Rp1,905.6 trillion.

Countries dominating investments include Singapore, China, Japan, South Korea, and the United States.

“We have implemented several priority programmes covering various policies. If we look at downstream industrialisation, it still contributes the largest, around 30% of all investments entering Indonesia,” he said.
