Indonesia has signed an agreement with the United States to strengthen infrastructure financing through private sector investment, Indonesia’s Finance Ministry and the US Treasury Department said on Friday. US Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin signed the agreement with Indonesia’s Finance Minister Sri Mulyani Indrawati remotely on Friday, according to a statement posted on the US Treasury Department’s website. Rahayu Puspasari, the spokeswoman for Indonesia’s Finance Ministry, said in a separate statement that the agreement would bolster the development of capital markets and financial instruments to “facilitate and reduce the barriers to private sector investment in infrastructure.” Puspasari added that the agreement would help improve asset recycling capacity, impact assessment for the financing already given, and credit enhancement.
