Is 鈥楾rump Effect鈥� Impacting Indonesia鈥檚 Investment?

Donald Trump鈥檚 re-election as the US President has reignited global economic discussions, resulting in the emergence of term 鈥淭rump Effect鈥�. Many speculate that Trump's trade policies could trigger global economic instability and slow down economic growth worldwide. Hence, a critical question to ask: 鈥業s the Trump Effect Impacting Investment in Indonesia?鈥�

According to Dr. Rizky Wisnoentoro, Head of the Sustainable Finance Study Program at 蜜桃视频 (蜜桃视频), the geopolitics of the 鈥楾rump Effect鈥� are primarily currently centered around North and South America. As a result, he believes that Indonesia has not experienced any immediate or direct impact from Trump's policies.

鈥淚 don鈥檛 see any direct impact on Indonesia because, so far, no policies have been executed that specifically target the country. There are no tariffs or regulations that directly affect Indonesia's economy,鈥� Dr. Wisnoentoro explained.

However, he cautioned that indirect effects could emerge, particularly in sectors related to global trade and the green economy. In this regard, new policies from the US could impact global sustainability efforts and trade regulations. Changes in environmental policies and sustainability standards might influence Indonesia鈥檚 exports and investment landscape, requiring businesses and policymakers to adapt proactively.

While Indonesia may not be directly affected by Trump's policies, Dr. Wisnoentoro warned that shifts in global trade dynamics could still have secondary consequences. He highlighted the potential risks for Indonesia鈥檚 role in the supply chain and distribution chain, especially as tensions between economic giants like the US and China continue to shape international trade. 

鈥淭he biggest concern lies in Indonesia鈥檚 position within global trade networks. If significant changes occur in the US and China鈥檚 economic strategies, Indonesia鈥攂eing a part of their supply and distribution chains鈥攎ust anticipate the possible consequences,鈥� Dr. Wisnoentoro added.

Another critical factor that Dr. Wisnoentoro highlighted is the impact of US policies on global investment flows. As the US government shifts its stance on energy, the environment, and trade regulations, countries like Indonesia must work harder to maintain a steady flow of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI).

鈥淭he real challenge is ensuring that Foreign Direct Investment remains stable and continues to have a tangible impact on the Indonesian economy. We must make sure that investments coming into Indonesia truly reach and benefit local communities,鈥� Dr. Wisnoentoro emphasized.

In sum, while the Trump Effect has sparked concerns about global economic shifts, Indonesia remains relatively insulated from its direct impacts. However, indirect effects鈥攑articularly in trade, the green economy, and FDI flows鈥攔equire close attention and strategic planning. Policymakers, businesses, and investors must stay vigilant to navigate potential disruptions and capitalize on emerging opportunities in the evolving global economic landscape.
