Rosan Sets 2027 Investment Target at IDR 2,322 Trillion
Investment Minister and Head of the Investment Coordinating Board (BKPM) Rosan Perkasa Roeslani has set Indonesia’s investment target for 2027 at Rp2,322 trillion. This figure reflects a 13.8% increase compared to this year’s target of Rp2,041 trillion.
During a press conference on the Financial Note and 2027 State Budget Draft in Jakarta on Friday (14/8), Rosan explained that the target is part of the national investment goal for the 2025-2029 period. The total investment target over those five years is projected to reach Rp13,032 trillion, a 43% jump compared to the realisation of the past decade.
The increase in the target is driven by the increasingly dominant contribution of investment to national economic growth. In the second quarter of 2026, investment contributed around 39% to economic growth, surpassing the normal range of 28%-29%. The investment sector also grew by 6.87%, higher than consumption growth of 5.06%.
“Investment grew 6.87%, higher than consumption growth of 5.06%,” said Rosan. He added that investment realisation in the first half of 2026 reached Rp1,010.6 trillion and absorbed 1.4 million direct workers.
The government emphasised that the quality of investment is now a top priority. Rosan stressed that every incoming capital must have a direct impact on public welfare through the creation of quality jobs. “Every rupiah of investment must create good and quality jobs,” he asserted.
The downstreaming sector remains the main driver, with realisation reaching Rp300.1 trillion in the first half of 2026. Although it is currently still dominated by the mineral sector at Rp206.5 trillion, the government is beginning to shift its focus to strengthening downstreaming in the plantation, forestry, and oil and gas sectors.
This step is being taken because plantation- and forestry-based sectors are considered to have far greater potential for labour absorption. Although the nominal investment value is still below the mineral sector, its socio-economic impact is considered broader for the public.
