flag Indonesia aims to make Bali a financial hub with tax incentives and reforms, targeting 8% growth by 2029 despite challenges.

flag Indonesia is advancing plans to turn Bali into a regional financial hub, offering tax breaks and streamlined regulations inspired by Singapore, to boost its slowing economy and attract global investment. flag The proposed Indonesia Financial City, backed by President Prabowo and adviser Ray Dalio, aims to link international capital with Indonesia’s real economy and support a growth target of 8% by 2029, requiring significant foreign investment. flag Still in early stages, the plan could be presented to Parliament by year-end, but faces hurdles including Bali’s overcrowding, environmental strain, water scarcity, and competition from neighboring countries developing their own financial centers.
