No. 28/57/DKom
Indonesia's official reserve assets position at the end of February 2026 remained high at USD151.9 billion, despite retreating from USD154.6 billion at the end of January 2026. Such development was attributable to tax and services revenues as well as the government's foreign loan withdrawal, amidst the government's external debt repayments and Bank Indonesia's Rupiah stabilization policy in response to persistently high global financial market uncertainty. The reserve assets position at the end of February 2026 was equivalent to 6.1 months of imports, or 5.9 months of imports and servicing the government external debt, which is well above the international adequacy standard of around three months of imports. Bank Indonesia considers the current level of reserve assets is sufficient to bolster external sector resilience and to preserve macroeconomic and financial system stability.
Going forward, Bank Indonesia views that external sector resilience will remain maintained, supported by an adequate level of official reserve assets and continued foreign capital inflows, in line with positive investor perceptions of Indonesia's economic outlook and attractive investment returns. Bank Indonesia will also continue strengthening synergy with the Government towards bolstering external resilience, thereby safeguarding economic stability to support sustainable economic growth.
