Background
Indonesia has achieved high and sustainable economic growth rates in recent years. It has a vibrant private sector that produces a variety of goods and services with the involvement of poor people. Although the number of people living in extreme poverty is low, an estimated 7% of the population (based on national statistics), the percentage of people with low income below $3 a day per person and hence vulnerable to poverty and external shocks remains high at 78%. However, these people at the base of the (income) pyramid (BoP) have a huge purchasing power which has not been explored by the private sector. IB are for-profit enterprises that directly engage in innovative ways BoP populations in their value chain as consumers, suppliers, distributors or employees in order to achieve as part of their core business - systemic impact on poverty reduction and social inclusiveness.
other capital market institutions to target such IB companies as they promise high and relatively safe rate of returns of 15-30%. It was suggested to include Indonesia in the proposed Mekong Plus IB Fund and allocate initially $30-$35 million for investments (about 10 deals initially) in Indonesia.
