In the first half of 2026, Jakarta emerged as Indonesia’s leading investment hub, drawing in a substantial Rp 173.6 trillion, equivalent to $9.7 billion, in total investments. This impressive sum includes Rp 106.5 trillion from domestic sources and Rp 67.1 trillion from foreign direct investment (FDI), underscoring the robust confidence investors have in the capital city.
For the second quarter alone, Jakarta secured Rp 94.9 trillion ($5.3 billion) in investments, which accounted for 18.5% of the nation’s total investment realization. The city topped the charts nationally for domestic investments with Rp 58.6 trillion. Meanwhile, its foreign direct investment reached Rp 36.3 trillion, positioning Jakarta as the second-largest destination for FDI in Indonesia.
Officials attribute Jakarta’s strong investment performance to ongoing enhancements in the ease of doing business, improved public services, and a generally favorable investment climate. These efforts have evidently paid off, drawing both local and international investors to the city in significant numbers.
Meanwhile, West Java followed Jakarta as the second most attractive investment destination in the country, garnering Rp 138.1 trillion over the same period. The region’s ability to attract such a high level of investment highlights the growing economic opportunities within Indonesia’s various provinces.
