Foreign direct investment (FDI) into Indonesia, excluding investments in the financial and oil & gas sectors, dropped by 6.95% year-on-year to a six-quarter low of IDR 202.2 trillion (USD 12.3 billion) in the second quarter of 2025, sharply reversing a 12.7% rise in the previous quarter. This marked the first decline in foreign direct investment since Q3 2021 and the steepest fall in five years, amid uncertainty surrounding US tariff policy and weakening domestic purchasing power. Some of the largest recipients of FDI in the April–June period were the base metal, mining, services, transportation, warehousing, and telecommunication industries. Singapore remained the largest source of FDI (USD 4.2 billion), followed by Hong Kong (USD 2.3 billion) and China (USD 1.8 billion). Meanwhile, total direct investment, including domestic sources, reached IDR 477.7 trillion, up 11.5% year-on-year, creating more than 665,764 jobs. source: Investment Coordinating Board of the Republic of Indonesia (BKPM)

Foreign direct investment (FDI) into Indonesia, excluding investment in the financial and oil & gas sectors, grew by 12.7% year-on-year to IDR 230.4 trillion ($13.67 billion) in the first quarter of 2025, easing sharply from a 33.3% surge in the previous three-month period.

Singapore remained the biggest source of FDI ($ 4.6 billion), followed by Hong Kong ($2.2 billion) and China ($ 1.8 billion).
