Danantara Eyes Strategic Partnership with Australia’s Future Fund to Boost Global Investment Access

Jakarta, Xweb.biz.id – Indonesia’s sovereign wealth fund, Danantara, is in talks to establish a strategic partnership with Australia’s Future Fund, in a major move to attract international institutional capital and drive long-term economic growth.

This prospective collaboration follows a bilateral meeting between President Prabowo Subianto and Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese during the Indonesia-Australia Annual Leaders’ Meeting held at Merdeka Palace last Thursday.

Future Fund’s Global Clout

Established in 2006, Future Fund Australia is one of the largest institutional investors globally, managing over AUD 307 billion (approx. US$204 billion) as of Q1 2025.

Danantara CEO Rosan Roeslani confirmed the Australian fund had shown strong interest in Danantara’s vision and performance, particularly as a key driver of Indonesia’s economic transformation.

“Joining the IFSWF [International Forum of Sovereign Wealth Funds] opens the door to strategic alliances like this, positioning Danantara as a trusted global investment partner,” Rosan stated in a press release on Monday.

Unlocking Capital for National Projects

The collaboration is expected to help unlock new funding streams for Indonesia’s national strategic projects, especially those aligned with industrialization and sustainable development goals.

As an independent agency under the President, Danantara is tasked with managing and optimizing state and SOE assets to support the realization of Asta Cita and other national programs.

“Danantara is committed to being a catalyst for inclusive and sustainable growth. We will continue engaging global institutions like the Future Fund to realize that vision,” Rosan added.

Danantara Hits $1 Trillion in Assets

Earlier this month, President Prabowo announced that Danantara has surpassed US$1 trillion in total assets under management—marking a symbolic milestone for the young sovereign wealth fund. This leap was made possible by the inclusion of two key national assets: the Gelora Bung Karno (GBK) Sports Complex, valued at $30 billion, and the Kemayoran area in Central Jakarta.
