More and more investors are making environmental and social impact a primary criterion for receiving funds, prompting investment management institutions like Indonesia Investment Authority (INA) and Yayasan Kehati to focus on Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) aspects. Yayasan Kehati, through the establishment of the SRI-Kehati index in collaboration with the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) since 2009, aims to increase awareness and implementation of ESG among issuers to attract sustainable investment flows. "So what we are looking at is not only the sector or size, but also the impact," said the Chief Risk Officer of the Indonesia Investment Authority (INA). As a sovereign wealth fund, INA collaborates with major investors to inject capital into various sectors, including green energy and transformation, toll road and port infrastructure, as well as digital and healthcare infrastructure. Two key considerations in investments are measurable impact and return on investment.

Indonesia Investment Authority (INA), the country's sovereign wealth fund, is looking to tap overseas investors as it seeks to deepen its focus on green investments, a top INA officer told reporters on Thursday. INA chief risk officer Thomas Sugiarto Oentoro said the wealth fund was reviewing several opportunities in green investments. INA has previously invested in Indonesian geothermal firm PT Pertamina Geothermal Tbk. INA along with Abu Dhabi renewable energy firm Masdar acquired a 20% stake in Pertamina Geothermal in February last year for USD 480 million. Besides geothermal energy, INA is also reviewing solar power and nature-based solutions such as mangrove restoration. INA will directly invest in sustainable or green projects alongside external foreign investors from regions like the US, Europe, and the Middle East.

A prime example is the Indonesia Sovereign Fund or INA (Indonesia Investment Authority), which incorporates ESG considerations into its investment decisions. Impact investing is a strategy aimed at generating financial returns alongside measurable social or environmental benefits. Investors allocate their capital to companies, organizations, and projects addressing pressing issues such as climate change, poverty, and inequality.
