..Danantara and private investors will play a major role as drivers of economic growth.Jakarta (ANTARA) - Finance Minister Purbaya Yudhi Sadewa plans to steadily increase the investment contribution of the Investment Management Institution Daya Anagata Nusantara (Danantara) through 2029.
During a working meeting with Commission XI of the House of Representatives on Wednesday, Purbaya emphasized the need to accelerate investment to drive stronger economic growth.
He noted that this goal will be achieved by strengthening the role of the private sector and Danantara as a sovereign wealth fund, so that investment acceleration does not rely solely on the State Budget (APBN).
“Going forward, we expect Danantara’s investment contribution to continue increasing through 2029, in line with the rising role of private sector investment,” he said.
According to him, Danantara’s strategic investments will be directed toward supporting productive sectors with high added value, creating more jobs, and improving public welfare.

The government will also contribute through the APBN as a catalyst to stimulate private sector involvement.
Therefore, he expressed hope that both Danantara and private investors will play a major role as drivers of economic growth.
In parallel, the APBN will continue to provide support for sustainable infrastructure development.
This support will focus on priority projects with significant impact on growth, including housing, infrastructure for food and energy security, as well as educational and healthcare facilities.
In his presentation, he said that gross domestic product (GDP) growth in the draft 2026 State Budget (RAPBN) is targeted at 5.4 percent, higher than the 5.2 percent set in the 2025 State Budget.
From the GDP components, investment growth is projected to slow from 5.5 percent this year to 5.2 percent next year.
Conversely, household consumption is expected to rise from 5.0 percent this year to 5.2 percent in 2026. Exports are also projected to increase from 5.4 percent to 6.7 percent.
By sector, agriculture is expected to grow by 4.1 percent, manufacturing by 5.2 percent, and information and communications by 8.0 percent next year.
