Facing Economic Uncertainty

When the world economy faces uncertainty, domestic consumption is the mainstay. The Indonesian economy can still be exploring at a speed of about 5 percent in facing this uncertainty.

Banking problems in the United States (regional bank) and Switzerland (Credit Suisse), with their influences on many countries, have been solved.

Inflation has slowed down, so the central bank is expected to pause from raising interest rates. Similarly, with Indonesia’s strong banking conditions, inflation has slowed to below 5 percent, the rupiah is appreciated, and Bank Indonesia (BI) not only holds back policy interest rates, but also sees the possibility of lowering them.
