Investment has been growing at a lackluster pace so far in 2026 compared to what the country achieved in recent years but is still on track to reach the government’s target.Investment and Downstream Minister Rosan Perkasa Roeslani revealed in a press conference on Thursday that realized investment in the second quarter increased 7.1 percent year-on-year (yoy).
“Amid geopolitical and geoeconomic challenges in the world, praise be to God, I can convey here that investors’ commitment to invest directly in Indonesia, or foreign direct investment [FDI], is still in line with the target set,” said Rosan.
Nominally, second-quarter investment clocked in at Rp 511.8 trillion (US$28.5 billion), or about a quarter of the full year-target set at Rp 2.04 quadrillion, while the first-half figure meets about half the 2026 target.
