Indonesia's Danantara Attracts Foreign Investor Interest, Meets with Tony Blair

Indonesia's Investment Management Body, known as Danantara, is emerging as a key destination for foreign investors looking to expand their operations in the country. The agency has reported a growing number of international investors eager to form strategic partnerships for various investment projects.

Rosan P. Roeslani, CEO of Danantara Indonesia, shared these insights following a meeting with former British Prime Minister Tony Blair in Jakarta on July 7, 2026. Roeslani stated that foreign investor interest in Danantara continues to rise, driven by the substantial portfolio of assets and projects managed by the institution. "Danantara is becoming the strategic partner sought by many foreign investors. We have a very attractive portfolio and projects for foreign capital," Roeslani commented.

During their discussion, Tony Blair reportedly offered his perspective on the significant investment opportunities available in Indonesia through Danantara. According to Roeslani, Blair views Danantara's current position as highly appealing to global investors aiming to develop businesses in Indonesia. Roeslani sees this as a positive signal, reflecting increased international investor confidence in Indonesia's investment climate. He expressed hope that this interest will accelerate the inflow of new investments into the nation's strategic sectors.

Tony Blair's visit to Indonesia included a meeting with Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto. They discussed global strategic developments and opportunities to strengthen cooperation in investment, digital transformation, and economic development. Blair remains active through the Tony Blair Institute for Global Change, which provides policy advisory services to various nations, focusing on government reform, public service digitalization, and improving investment climates.

Danantara was established by the Indonesian government as a national investment management body. Its mandate is to consolidate assets from state-owned enterprises, optimize the value of state assets, and attract long-term investment. The goal is to support the financing of national priority projects and stimulate Indonesia's economic growth.
