The Bank of Indonesia (BI) Board of Governors Meeting (RDG BI) on Wednesday (20 August), decided to lower the benchmark BI Rate to 5%. Meanwhile, the Deposit Facility rate was lowered to 4.25% and the Lending Facility rate to 5.75%. The policies are consistent with the relatively low inflation projection for 2025 and 2026 in the 2.5±1% range, well maintained Rupiah exchange rate, and the need to boost the national economy in line with the economic capacity.
