Building a Competitive and Responsible Investment Environment in Indonesia to Support a Resilient COVID-19 Recovery

Indonesia has made remarkable economic, political and social progress over the past two decades, as the government has embarked on ambitious reforms to modernise the country. Sustained and steady growth, sound macroeconomic policies, an increasingly accountable political system and progress in the social protection system have allowed the country to increase living standards and reduce poverty in both rural and urban areas. The COVID-19 pandemic has halted this progress and plunged Indonesia into a major crisis.

Private investment, both foreign and domestic, can make an important contribution to a sustainable and inclusive recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic and resulting social and economic crisis. Reforms are needed to improve the investment climate in Indonesia and ensure investment contributions are maximised.
