Financing Breakthrough! IIF And Innovative Strategy Amid Global Challenges

JAKARTA - In the midst of global economic uncertainty and national financing challenges, PT Indonesia Infrastructure Finance (IIF) managed to record various breakthroughs that confirmed its position as the main catalyst for financing sustainable infrastructure in Indonesia.

In the first semester of 2025, IIF posted a net profit growth of 27 percent, driven by an increase in 32.3 percent of net interest income to Rp255.1 billion, and success in reducing interest costs to a decrease of 8.3 percent to Rp371.1 billion. This achievement also strengthens IIF's net profit margin to 13.0 percent.

"Infrastructure is an important component for a country in building prosperity and economic growth. So, opportunities for infrastructure development are always open," said Rizki Pribadi Hasan, President Director of IIF, quoted Wednesday, August 27.

Regarding IIF's main advantages, Rizki explained, the role of IIF is not to be a competitor in the financial industry in Indonesia, but instead to become a partner.

"We are the only Non-Bank Financial Institutions (LKNB) that focus on infrastructure. Although infrastructure financing can be done by banks, our LKNB is the only one. Second, since we were founded 15 years ago, we have implemented social and environmental principles in infrastructure projects," he explained.

As a trusted institution that puts forward good sustainability and governance principles, IIF provides various consulting schemes and services to support the feasibility and sustainability of sustainable infrastructure projects, including:

1. Fund-Based and Non-Fund-Based financing for public and private infrastructure projects. 2. Consulting/Advisory Services: technical and financial assistance to ensure the project runs effectively, efficiently and according to ESG standards (Environmental, Social, and Governance).

The focus of IIF covers various important sectors, such as electricity, telecommunications, toll roads, water and waste, gas infrastructure, airports, ports, social infrastructure, tourism infrastructure, trains and public transportation.

One of IIF's major breakthroughs is its success in issuing long-term bonds worth IDR 1 trillion with a tenor of 10 years, becoming the only bond issued by non-bank agencies in 2024. The bonds even oversubscription up to 2.2 times, reflecting investor high confidence.

IIF's commitment to providing innovative financing bears international recognition. In 2025, IIF won seven international awards, including The Asset Triple A Sustainable Infrastructure Awards (5 awards) and ABF Corporate & Investment Banking Awards (2 awards).
