One Stop Integrated Services - Capital Investment Sector

The Government has issued Presidential Regulation No. 27 of 2009 to facilitate the implementation of the provisions of article 26(3) of the Capital Investment Law, Law No. 25 of 2007. It is expected that the regulation will play an integral role in reducing the amount of licensing fees and non-licensing fees that investors are currently required to pay in order to make capital investments in Indonesia. The regulation has also been drafted with a view to improving the levels of legal certainty, accountability, openness, equal treatment of investors, and overall efficiency of the process.

The provisions are designed to smoothen and ease the negotiation of the capital investment process for investors. This is expected to be done by providing better investor services, the provision of fiscal incentives, and greater levels of information to investors. Whether the capital investment process has indeed become better for investors requires measurements of the integrated services to be taken. These measurements are to focus on the following: speed, accuracy, simplicity, transparency, and certainty. Each of these is further enumerated in the regulation.
