Finance in Sustainable Infrastructure

In Indonesia, British International Investment (BII)  and UK Export Finance (UKEF) operate in a complementary way to boost green infrastructure, trade, and economic development.

BII focuses on impact investments for sustainable development, while UKEF provides financing and insurance for exports involving British goods and services. Both agencies work with Indonesian public and private partners to support the country’s economic and energy transition.

British International Investment (BII)

British International Investment is the UK’s development finance institution and impact investor. The organisation invests in businesses in developing countries to improve people’s lives and help protect the planet. BII’s work targets the underlying causes of poverty and the climate crisis, helping countries break free from aid dependency for good.

Between 2022-2026, at least 30 per cent of BII’s total new commitments by value will be in climate finance. BII is also a founding member of the 2X Challenge which has raised over $33.6 billion to empower women’s economic development. The company has investments in over 1,600 businesses across 66 countries and total net assets of £9.87 billion.
