Investment was one of the main factors driving Indonesia’s economic growth in the first quarter of 2026.
The government reported that the investment sector contributed approximately 32 percent to national economic growth, which rose by 5.61 percent year-on-year.
This figure is considered higher than the contribution of investment in previous years, which generally ranged from 28 to 29 percent.
Minister of Investment and Downstreaming, Rosan Roeslani, stated that the increase in investment is a positive signal that Indonesia’s economic conditions remain quite strong amid global uncertainty.
Of the total national economic growth, the investment sector reportedly contributed approximately 1.8 percentage points to economic growth.
Meanwhile, the Central Statistics Agency reported that domestic economic activity remains the primary driver of national growth.
Indonesia’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP) in the first quarter of 2026 was also recorded at thousands of trillion rupiah, reflecting continuously rising economic activity.
The government continues to promote a conducive investment climate to ensure economic growth is maintained in the coming quarters.
Additionally, strengthening the downstream sector and national strategic investments are key priorities for enhancing Indonesia’s economic competitiveness in the future.
