Jakarta, 1 September 2025 – PT Indonesia Infrastructure Finance (IIF) President Director / CEO, Rizki Pribadi Hasan, shared his insights on innovative financing solutions for sustainable infrastructure during a virtual session at the Climate Capital, Risk and Impact Conference 2025 held by Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) in Mumbai. He participated as a panelist in the session “How can public policy banks accelerate finance for transition?” alongside leaders from BNDES (Brazil), NABARD (India), AFD (France) and PT SMI (Indonesia).

The panel, chaired by B.S. Venkatesha, Deputy Managing Director of NaBFID, discussed the critical role of development finance institutions (DFIs) in bridging the vast financing gap required for emerging markets to achieve net-zero transitions.

In his remarks, Rizki emphasized IIF’s unique position as the only Indonesian financial institution exclusively focused on private-sector infrastructure financing. Today, renewable energy accounts for around 22% of IIF’s total portfolio, including hydropower, solar, biomass, and geothermal projects.

IIF has also pioneered innovative financing instruments:
• In 2021, it became the first non-bank institution in Indonesia to issue a Global Sustainable Bond.
• In 2024, IIF issued the country’s first publicly listed green perpetual notes, further expanding green financing options.

Innovative Financing Products
Rizki highlighted IIF’s role in complementing banks and capital markets by offering products that enhance project bankability:
• Cash Deficiency Support Facility – a subordinated loan mechanism that stabilizes project cash flows during the ramp-up phase, providing security to senior lenders.
• Credit Enhancement Facility – a guarantee mechanism that upgrades client bond ratings (e.g., from BBB to A/AA), reducing financing costs and widening investor access.

“These tools are critical for ensuring that infrastructure projects in Indonesia not only achieve financial close but also contribute meaningfully to the country’s climate transition,” said Rizki.

Global Collaboration for Net Zero
Alongside fellow panelists, Rizki underscored the importance of partnerships between DFIs, banks, and capital markets. By leveraging blended finance, adopting ESG standards, and developing frontier instruments such as guarantees and local-currency financing, public policy banks can play a decisive role in mobilizing the trillions of dollars required for emerging markets to meet their net-zero goals.

IIF’s participation in this international forum further reinforces its commitment to becoming a key catalyst in promoting the green transition in Indonesia. By prioritizing innovative financing and strengthening global collaboration, IIF not only provides solutions for infrastructure funding gaps but also makes a tangible contribution to accelerating the achievement of sustainable development goals and net-zero emissions.
