Indonesia’s sovereign wealth fund, Badan Pengelola Investasi Daya Anagata Nusantara Indonesia (BPI Danantara), is eyeing potential investments in European food companies as part of its strategy to expand globally. CEO Rosan Roeslani stated that aside from food, the fund is also considering opportunities in the European healthcare sector. The move is aimed at allowing Indonesia to adopt advanced technologies widely used in Europe. Rosan added that a major food company—one of the world’s largest—has also expressed interest in investing in Indonesia, with Danantara potentially becoming one of its partners.
Rosan revealed that 20% of Danantara’s total capital will be allocated for overseas investments, while 80% will remain focused on domestic strategic projects that support Indonesia’s national development priorities. Although details have not been disclosed, Rosan emphasized that the potential investment value in Europe is significant and could soon be officially announced. The cross-investment approach—Danantara investing in a global food company while the company invests back in Indonesia—highlights efforts to strengthen international cooperation, enhance food security, and accelerate innovation transfer into the country.
