Blended Finance Driving Capital To Emerging Markets
Developing nations, including Indonesia, contribute half of global gross domestic product, yet only attract a fraction of the US$220 trillion of global capital. Blended finance then offers a template for how emerging economies can attract investment without compromising on growth or sustainability.
Blended finance is like a symphony, where diverse instruments – public funds, philanthropic contributions and private investment – create harmony and impact. This in turn attracts additional players, drawn to transformative projects that may not otherwise meet their risk-return appetite.
Our CFO, Eddy Porwanto shared how blended finance can be an innovative approach to funding development projects. Read more about it here: https://www.businesstimes.com.sg/opinion-features/blended-finance-driving-capital-emerging-markets
Investment and Partnership for Infrastructure Optimization
Our Deputy CEO, Arief Budiman, discusses how investment and partnership can comprehensively optimize infrastructure and the way it is developed. He lays out how investment in infrastructure development has an important role to play in maintaining and increasing economic growth, creating jobs, and supporting equal distribution of social welfare.
Infrastructure development stands as the cornerstone of progress in Indonesia and both the Government and SOEs have vital roles to play in infrastructure development.
However, participation from the non-government sector is crucial to complement these efforts, both to increase the productivity of existing assets, and to grow user-demand for new infrastructure that meets the ever-growing needs of society and consumers.
