TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - The Ministry of Investment and Downstream/Investment Coordinating Board (BKPM) recorded a total investment realization of Rp491.4 trillion in the third quarter of 2025. This figure reflects a growing trend, particularly in downstream investment, which now accounts for 30% of the total realization for the quarter.
Minister of Investment and Downstream/Head of BKPM, Rosan Roeslani, noted that the contribution from downstream investment has risen by 5 percentage points, up from its previous level of 25–26%.
"The contribution at this level has increased, proving that the implemented downstream policy is effective," Rosan stated during his presentation in Jakarta on Friday, October 17, 2025.
Rosan highlighted that the mineral sector provided the largest boost to downstream development, with a total investment reaching Rp97.8 trillion.
Nickel was the most dominant commodity, bringing in Rp42 trillion in investment. Copper followed, with an investment value of Rp21.2 trillion.
He further elaborated on the vital role played by commodities from the plantation and forestry sector, which also favorably impacted the investment realization for this third quarter.
The plantation sector, exemplified by palm oil, contributed a value of Rp21 trillion; timber logs added Rp11.7 trillion; and rubber accounted for Rp1.6 trillion. Rosan maintains an optimistic outlook that this robust realization will generate a significant multiplier effect and ultimately strengthen Indonesia's competitiveness in the global industry.
When comparing the figures on a quarterly basis, the investment achievement in the third quarter of 2025 was superior to the preceding first and second quarters of 2025. The two earlier quarters had recorded investment realizations of only Rp465.2 trillion and Rp477.7 trillion, respectively. Consequently, the cumulative investment realization from January to September now totals Rp1,434.3 trillion.
Rosan attributed this marked increase in investment realization in the third quarter to the government's sustained effort in promoting downstream industrial development, a strategy aimed at generating a positive impact on job creation. "And most importantly, it is essential to ensure that the incoming investments are sustainable and continuous, providing a lasting impact," he added.
