Foreign direct investment (FDI) into Indonesia, excluding the financial and oil & gas sectors, rose 4.3% yoy to a record IDR 256.3 trillion in Q4 2025, reversing an 8.9% decline in Q3 and marking the first increase in three quarters. The rebound came despite persistent global economic uncertainty and recent anti-government protests across several cities from late August to early September. For the full year, FDI edged up 0.1% to IDR 900.9 trillion, compared with a 21% surge in 2024. The base metals industry attracted the largest share of inflows for the year, with USD 14.6 billion, followed by the mining sector with USD 4.7 billion. Singapore, Hong Kong, and China remained the top sources of investment. In the past few years, FDI has strengthened, particularly in mining and metal refining, supported by Indonesia’s ban on nickel ore exports in 2020 and other mineral exports in 2023. This year, the government is banking on the sovereign wealth fund Danantara to drive new investment. source: Investment Coordinating Board of the Republic of Indonesia (BKPM)
