Indonesia’s Danantara plans to invest as much as US$14 billion this year, up from $8 billion in 2025, Pandu Patria Sjahrir, chief investment officer of the sovereign wealth fund, says in an interview with Reuters.
The capital will mainly be from dividends paid by businesses owned by the wealth fund, he says in the interview published on January 26.
Sjahrir also listed renewable energy, energy transition, digital infrastructure, healthcare and food security among Danantara’s priorities over the next 24 months.
He says the wealth fund plans to allocate capital across both public and private markets over the next two years.
The investments will largely be domestic though Danantara is also evaluating opportunities in China, India, Japan, South Korea and Europe, he says.
Spokespersons for Danantara did not immediately respond to questions from Asia Asset Management.
