JAKARTA — The Daya Anagata Nusantara Investment Management Agency (Danantara) is optimistic it can generate up to Rp13 trillion in revenue over the next five years.
This projection is based on the management of over Rp9,100 trillion in investments that have flowed into Indonesia over the past decade.
Danantara CEO Rosan Roeslani stated that the forecast aligns with the national economic growth target set by the government through the Ministry of National Development Planning (Bappenas).
“So over the next five years, we expect growth to jump very significantly in order to achieve the 8% growth target,” said Rosan.
As the sovereign wealth fund manager, Danantara currently oversees more than 888 state-owned enterprises (SOEs), with total assets exceeding Rp15,000 trillion. Rosan explained that Danantara’s managed funds come from SOE dividends, which are then reinvested to generate optimal returns.
“We now have the opportunity to manage these funds and generate returns. In Indonesia, ideally you would want at least a 10% return,” Rosan added.
He also noted that Danantara plans to allocate around 20% of its investment portfolio abroad. Through this strategy, an estimated US$185 billion could be utilized every five years for productive investments, both domestically and internationally.
“Again, to create more jobs. Investment is crucial—it’s one of the main pillars for economic growth, job creation, and much more,” he emphasized.
Meanwhile, Deputy Minister of State-Owned Enterprises and Danantara’s Chief Operating Officer (COO), Dony Oskaria, added that Danantara also welcomes collaboration with academia.
“Danantara is open to partnerships with universities. We want to contribute to the development of Indonesia’s human capital,” said Dony.
He emphasized that Danantara is not only a space for job seekers but also a platform for student and academic institution development.
