Research

Despite its importance to economic growth and equity, Indonesian financial development is currently far from optimal. A combination of depth, access, and efficiency are fundamental aspects necessary to create a more robust and competitive financial sector.

Performance of governance are crucial to boost Indonesia's competitiveness and unleash the country’s economic potential. Therefore, IBC is looking into different options of institutional reform to produce a sound policy recommendation that will promote institutional transformation.

One of Indonesia’s greatest potential strengths lays in its human capital through its diverse population of 277.5 million people. Without transforming and upskilling Indonesian labor, however, one of the nation’s strongest advantages remains untapped.

The Indonesian government’s ambitious targets can only be accomplished by reshaping Indonesia’s paradigms and norms. Forward-thinking mechanisms such as carbon credits are capable of great results such as cutting emissions by 50% at no additional costs, but they will require close participation and understanding between both local and global players.

The Future of Energy

Commitment to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and to achieve Net-Zero Emissions (NZE) requires policy intervention which is not only applicable, but also take into consideration the different dynamics of the energy sector to enable an energy transition scenario.

Private Sector Initiative

Some of the most impactful social initiatives come from private sectors. Replicating, expanding, and ensuring sustainability of these initiatives can be a tool to achieve sustainable development in the areas where public authority are lacking. But first, areas of priority needs to be defined.

Indonesia Carbon Market

Carbon credit trading has the potential to reduce emissions by 50% at no additional cost, assuming there are active participation of private sectors and other carbon creditors in the market. Indonesia needs to ensure a carbon market mechanism that will attract both local and global players.
