Currently, global economic issues that also occur in Indonesia include global inflationary pressures, rising interest rates, global recession, weakening economies, geopolitical occurrences, and economic risks. He said that currently the safest way to save is to save yellow gold, black gold, and forex. Yellow gold is the safest way to save gold because of its liquidity, so it can be withdrawn at any time. He also said that retirement funds must be calculated early on, based on the amount of annual expenses. In addition, saving can also be done by investing in stocks, bonds and mutual funds. Bonds are the lowest risk investment. Mutual funds are a type of investment that is very suitable for beginner investors because they are handled by investment managers. Indonesia’s efforts to become a developed country must increase the number of domestic investors because currently investment in Indonesia is dominated by foreign investors.
