In the first half of 2025, Danantara Indonesia (BPI Danantara) forged three major partnerships with sovereign wealth funds worth a total of US$4 billion. On April 15, it teamed up with Qatar Investment Authority (QIA) to launch a joint fund focused on downstream industry, renewable energy, and healthcare. In mid-May, a collaboration with Australia’s Future Fund—valued at over AUD 300 billion—was announced during the Indonesia‑Australia Annual Leaders’ Meeting, signalling backing for Danantara’s invitation to join the International Forum of Sovereign Wealth Funds. Finally, on May 25, Danantara and China Investment Corporation (CIC) explored creating an ASEAN–China investment platform targeting manufacturing, technology, health, and consumer goods.
Mohamad Al-Arief, Managing Director of Global Relations and Governance, emphasized that these partnerships go beyond financing. They represent strategic moves to enhance transparency, risk management, and long-term value creation by learning from global asset managers and adopting international best practices. This marks a transformative shift in Indonesia’s approach to sovereign asset governance.
