Mungkin di atas 15 persen," ujarnya saat memberikan sambutan dalam rapat kerja BPKH di gedung Kementerian Agama, Jakarta, Rabu. Sementara deposito, kata JK, keuntungannya lebih kecil karena memiliki risiko inflasi dan nilai tukar. Hal itu dapat berdampak pada pengelolaan dana BPKH secara jangka panjang. Berbeda halnya jika berinvestasi di sektor infrastruktur, imbal hasilnya akan lebih tinggi daripada inflasi dan nilai tukar.
