The Hajj Financial Management Agency (BPKH) in Indonesia is working to optimize its Rp185.73 trillion fund through strategic investment and portfolio diversification. During the 8th International Hajj Fund Forum in Jakarta, officials discussed enhancing the agency’s role to ensure long-term sustainability.

Minister of Hajj and Umrah Mochamad Irfan Yusuf has advocated for Hajj funds to function as a restricted fund used exclusively for pilgrimage purposes. This push for institutional strengthening occurs alongside legislative discussions in the DPR RI to revise the Hajj Financial Management Law. 

Additionally, BPKH aims to transition from a service user to a strategic investment partner in Saudi Arabia. The agency is targeting sectors such as catering, logistics, and accommodation in Makkah and Madinah to align with Saudi Vision 2030.
