Indonesia's official reserve assets position was recorded at US$148.7 billion at the end of September 2025, lower than the US$150.7 billion position at the end of August 2025. This development was influenced, among other factors, by the government's external debt repayments and the rupiah stabilization policy implemented by Bank Indonesia in response to persistently high global financial market uncertainty. The foreign exchange reserves at the end of September 2025 were equivalent to financing 6.2 months of imports, or 6.0 months of imports and servicing of the government's external debt, which is well above the international reserve adequacy standard of around three months of imports. Bank Indonesia assesses that these foreign exchange reserves remain strong in supporting external sector resilience and maintaining macroeconomic and financial system stability.
Moving forward, Bank Indonesia believes that the external sector will remain resilient due to maintained export prospects and the continued surplus in capital and financial account balance, in line with positive investor perceptions of the domestic economic outlook and attractive investment returns. Bank Indonesia continues to enhance synergy with the Government in strengthening external resilience to maintain economic stability and support sustainable economic growth.
