Danantara Emphasizes DSI Carries Out Tasks Professionally and Responsibly
The Indonesian Danantara Investment Management Agency emphasizes its commitment to ensuring that PT Indonesia Sumber Daya (DSI) carries out the task of strengthening the governance of strategic natural resource commodity exports in a measurable, professional, and responsible manner.
Danantara recognizes that the successful implementation of DSI's tasks will depend on business certainty: signed contracts can still be executed as long as there is no under-invoicing.
In an official statement released in Jakarta on Friday (June 5), Danantara management said: "Maintaining the trust of international trading partners and investors is a priority, and all DSI measures are aimed at strengthening this trust."
The government has set a transition period starting June 1, 2026, and will conduct regular evaluations in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
Danantara stated that at this stage, DSI's main focus is to strengthen reporting and monitoring systems through digital means.
Currently, DSI is building a digital platform to analyze export transaction data of strategic natural resource commodities, enabling objective and data-based identification of under-invoicing indications.
Management said: "This approach enables DSI to focus on transactions that need review, while the majority of compliant transactions can proceed smoothly."
DSI is fully committed to maintaining the confidentiality of all business information and contract terms it obtains. Signed contracts can continue to be executed as long as there is no under-invoicing.
Thus, operators who have practiced good export standards will not face obstacles in their business operations, thereby creating legal certainty and a favorable business environment.
After the transition period, DSI will prioritize its role as an intermediary, namely facilitating and supervising export flows so that business relationships between producers and their trading partners can be sustained.
DSI believes that starting the task from this role is crucial to ensure that the export process of strategic natural resource commodities is not disrupted while achieving the main objectives—fair, transparent trade without under-invoicing.
Management said: "The implementation of this role will be evaluated regularly and measurably, taking into account the readiness of the ecosystem and the achievement of the above objectives."
The prices of strategic natural resource commodities will be determined reasonably, referring to a methodology that is fair, transparent, and accountable for all commodities, aimed at preventing under-invoicing and ensuring that recorded export values reflect actual transactions.
This methodology will consider reasonable adjustments due to differences in quality, specifications, logistics costs, and contract structures, thus assessing price reasonableness in a complete context, closing loopholes for manipulation while avoiding a 'one-size-fits-all' approach to transactions that are genuinely different commercially.
Danantara and DSI guarantee that they will continue to engage in dialogue with all stakeholders to ensure that DSI's tasks are carried out consistently without disrupting the export process. In carrying out its tasks, DSI always upholds the principles of good governance, transparency, accountability, and integrity—through reasonable and measurable business mechanisms.
