INDONESIA: Country Wrap: All Eyes on the BI.
INDONESIA
- The Central Bank of Indonesia (the BI) holds its meeting later with consensus for no change from economists with 14 of 35 opting for a cut. The BI has one eye on the currency, which in a positive day for its regional peers, sees the rupiah weaker leading into the meeting. The rupiah has fallen 3% over the last 3 months, yet the BI pointed to the 1% fall in January as signs it was stabilizing. (source: MNI – Market News)
- Indonesia’s Jakarta Composite is down -0.40% ahead of the BI, reversing some of the near 3% gain in the first part of the week.
- IDR: weaker by -0.507% at 16,361.
- Bonds: a very quiet day ahead of the BI decision with the INGODG 10YR 6.767%.
