TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - Danantara Investment Management Agency has announced that it will soon allocate investments to the Indonesian stock market.

"As soon as possible, we can start registering," said Chief Investment Officer (CIO) of Danantara Indonesia, Pandu Sjahrir when met after attending the Opening Ceremony and Main Seminar of the Capital Market Summit & Expo (CMSE) 2025 at the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) building in Jakarta on Friday, October 17, 2025, as quoted from Antara.

Pandu explained that currently, Danantara can only start allocating its funds to various investment instruments, both domestically and internationally.

He stated that Danantara Indonesia plans to allocate 80 percent of its funds to domestic investment instruments.

"We are currently starting to make investments, both domestically and internationally. We will invest the majority for this year, 80 percent domestically," said Pandu.

He revealed that currently, Danantara Indonesia has only allocated its investments to the bond market, particularly government bonds (SBN), due to the limited time before the end of 2025.

"This year, even though there are only 10 weeks left, we want to start being active," said Pandu.

Previously, Pandu revealed Danantara's interest in allocating its investments to the Indonesian stock market.

However, according to him, the Indonesian stock market needs to increase its average daily transaction value from around US$1 billion to US$8 billion.

"We want to be in the public market equity. However, equity does need more liquidity, as I mentioned earlier (average daily transaction value). We are only at US$1 billion per day; it needs to be increased, it has to reach US$5 billion or US$8 billion per day," said Pandu.

On this occasion, the Executive Head of the Capital Market Supervisory Agency, Derivatives Financial, and Carbon Exchange of the Financial Services Authority (OJK), Inarno Djajadi, stated that the stock market capitalization value reached Rp 15.23 quadrillion on Thursday, October 16, 2025, or equivalent to 68.78 percent of the national gross domestic product (GDP).

"This (stock market capitalization value) has certainly approached our roadmap target (Indonesian Capital Market Roadmap 2023-2027); we can see our roadmap from 2023-2027 is 70 percent," said Inarno.

Meanwhile, the Indonesia Composite Index (IHSG) was recorded at 8,124 on Thursday (10/16), growing 14.76 year to date (ytd) since the beginning of the year.
