Indonesia's sovereign wealth fund PT Danantara Investment Management (Persero) is about to launch its investment operations. According to Reuters, its Chief Investment Officer stated that during the three-month operational period starting in October 2025, Danantara plans to invest approximately $10 billion (around IDR 165.83 trillion). About 80% of the funds will go to domestic projects, with the remainder allocated overseas.
Domestically, initial projects include building a Hajj village in Saudi Arabia, upstream energy projects in collaboration with state oil company PT Pertamina, and waste-to-energy projects, some of which are expected to commence operations by the end of 2025. The waste-to-energy projects plan to roll out 33 facilities across Indonesian regencies and cities, with 8 set to launch by the end of October 2025. Each project site, capable of processing 1,000 tons per day and equipped with supporting infrastructure, is estimated to require IDR 2-3 trillion in investment, bringing the total investment need to approximately IDR 66-99 trillion.
This financing is not limited to Danantara; private and state-owned enterprises are also welcome to participate, and partners will be selected through public tenders. Overseas projects, such as the Hajj village construction in Saudi Arabia, are also under planning. Additionally, Danantara is committed to improving stock market liquidity. The Indonesia Stock Exchange (BEI) welcomes its role as a liquidity provider, but current regulations only allow exchange members to serve in that capacity. However, BEI encourages subsidiaries of state-owned enterprises to participate, supporting stocks including those provided as liquidity.
