Banten economic and financial development initiatives

Overview

Regional authorities in Banten, Indonesia, are implementing various programs to bolster the local economy, food security, and financial inclusion.

In Lebak Regency, a multi-party collaboration has expanded rice processing capacity to 40 tons per day to improve grain absorption and target regional food self-sufficiency by 2027. Additionally, the Banten Provincial Government has proposed a draft regulation to inject Rp161.6 billion into PT Jamkrida Banten to increase financing access for Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs).

By March 2026, Banten reported approximately 1.2 million capital market investors, ranking fifth nationally. To further support local commerce, the ‘Serang Preneur’ program was introduced in Serang, providing MSME capital assistance through a partnership between the provincial government and the Banten National Zakat Agency (Baznas).
