<![CDATA[This study examines the role of the state in ensuring sustainable investment through the integration of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles within the Indonesian legal framework. The research aims to analyze how national regulations accommodate the balance between investment protection and the responsibility of the state to safeguard environmental and social interests. Using a normative juridical method with a statutory and conceptual approach, this article explores primary sources of law such as the Investment Law, the Omnibus Law on Job Creation, and international investment agreements, supported by secondary sources including scholarly articles and institutional reports. The findings show that while Indonesia has introduced several regulatory instruments related to sustainability, the implementation of ESG principlesremains fragmented and lacks strong enforcement mechanisms. Comparative analysis with other jurisdictions highlights the urgency for Indonesia to harmonize its legal system with global ESG standards to enhance investment attractiveness while maintaining social justice and environmental protection. The study concludes that strengthening ESG-based regulations and monitoring mechanisms is crucial for the state’s responsibility in guaranteeing sustainable investment.]]>
