Singapore Leads Foreign Capital Inflows to Indonesia Through First Half of 2025
Jakarta: The Ministry of Investment and Downstreaming/Investment Coordinating Board (BKPM) recorded that Singapore continued to lead investment realisation in Indonesia through the first half of 2025. Singapore's investment was recorded at USD8.8 billion, or 32.4 per cent of total investment.
"Cumulatively, Singapore has dominated for quite some time, especially as relations between ASEAN nations continue to improve and strengthen," said Minister of Investment and Downstreaming/Head of BKPM Rosan Perkasa Roeslani at a press conference on Tuesday, 29 July 2025.
Hong Kong ranked second with USD4.6 billion or 17.0 per cent, followed by China at USD3.6 billion or 13.2 per cent, Malaysia at USD1.7 billion or 6.4 per cent, and Japan at USD1.6 billion or 6.0 per cent of total investment.
"Amid high regional tensions, they need to further increase regional investment and trade. This is also what has been agreed, and these investment figures will grow, particularly from the region," he said.
In the second quarter of 2025, Singapore also ranked first with USD4.2 billion or 33.3 per cent, Hong Kong at USD2.3 billion or 18.6 per cent, China at USD1.8 billion or 14.4 per cent, the United States at USD0.8 billion or 6.0 per cent, and Malaysia at USD0.7 billion or 5.6 per cent.
"If we look at the changes, there is not much difference, especially among the top three. Singapore has held the top ranking for FDI into Indonesia for more than 10 years," he said.
The Ministry of Investment and Downstreaming/BKPM recorded that investment realisation reached Rp942.9 trillion through the first half of 2025. Investment realisation grew 13.6 per cent and had reached 49.5 per cent of this year's target of Rp1,905.6 trillion.
"Investment realisation in Indonesia in the first half of 2025 broke through Rp942.9 trillion, increasing 13.6 per cent year-on-year. Against this year's target, it reached approximately 49.48 per cent," said Rosan.
Rosan noted that investment realisation comprised foreign direct investment (FDI) of Rp432.6 trillion or 45.9 per cent of the total, whilst domestic direct investment (DDI) accounted for Rp510.3 trillion or 54.1 per cent of total realisation in the first half of 2025.
By regional contribution, investment realisation on the island of Java was recorded at Rp466.9 trillion or 49.5 per cent of the overall total in the first half of 2025, whilst investment outside Java reached Rp476.0 trillion or 50.5 per cent of total investment realisation.
