11 Domestic Economic Adjustment Continues 10 Economic growth in Q keeps moderating to 5.12% (yoy), lower than 5.22% (yoy) from previous quarter, mainly as a result of weaker export performance of natural resource based commodities. In domestic demand, the economic slowdown is primarily attributable to a contraction in government spending due to the postponement of social assistance disbursements, coupled with sluggish non-construction investment activity. Notwithstanding, dogged household consumption in Q bolstered economic growth due to activities associated with the presidential election as well as maintained public purchasing power in line with lower inflation. The domestic economy is expected to expand in line with the previous BI projection of % in 2014, with a bias towards the lower end of the range.

Rising JCI & Net Foreign Buy/Sell Slightly Weakening Government Bond Yield The rupiah depreciated in August 2014, but volatility remained well maintained. The depreciation is influenced by external factors stemmed from geopolitical dynamics and domestic factors related to the wait-and-see attitude of investors concerning government future policies Less Volatile Rupiah Exchange Rate Comfortable International Reserves Relatively stable exchange rate, accompanied by strong inflows, reflected in the increasing trend of FX reserves.

Headline inflation in August 2014 was 0.47% (mtm) or 3.99% (yoy) vs. 0.93% (mtm) or 4.53% (yoy) July The downward trend was a result of correction in food prices, especially rice and miscellaneous horticultural commodities in line with abundant domestic supply linked to the harvest season and continuous efforts from the Government to manage food distribution. With easing pressure from subsidized fuel price adjustment, inflationary pressure are coming from expenditure side due to holiday season.

18 MACROECONOMIC AND MONETARY POLICY DIRECTION

19 Global Risks 18 Global Growth Spill-Over and Spill-Back China s Slower Economic Growth Uncertainty of Fed s Policy Normalization Challenges Global downside scenario (covering uneven pace of AE economic growth recovery, Slower economic growth in EMs, & financial turmoil) exposed Indonesia to the risk of a slower economic growth >3,75% against WEO IMF baseline. Spill over from advance market to emerging market may occur at least through 4 path, as follow: trade, commodity prices, global financial system, and neighborhood effect. Growth in China s property sector is still weak, potentially affecting efforts to rebalance the economy. Risks stemming from the property sector may affect the financial system (shadow banking) in addition to growth (investment). Other risks may also arise from economic growth disparity among region in China. Although structural problems remain as highlighted by Yellen in 16 July 2014, there is a possibility FFR will increase earlier if the recovery in the employment sector occured sooner than expected. This is reinforced by Yellen statement in FOMC July which is slightly hawkish, and the indication of the end of tapering in Oct 2014 according to FOMC minutes in June (released 9 July) Emerging Markets Vulnerability Indonesian economic condition improves supported by lower inflationary pressure, improving international reserves, and worsening condition of other EMs. Nonetheless, the potential of an economic growth slow down in other EM countries may increase Indonesian s vulnerability to global risk aversion. Higher Inflationary Pressure Up side risk in the 2 nd half-2014 potentially arise from an increase in the upper tariff for air transportation. In addition, risk may also arise from food price related to the possibility of lack of supply of raskin at the end of the year and the increase of El Nino intensity to strong level. The continued reduction in the supply of subsidized fuel to the gas station to keep the quota in 2014.

20 Domestic Global Medium Term Challenges and Fiscal Policies 19 The Government of Indonesia is well aware of the global and domestic challenges, these concerns are addressed in the future policy Challenges Main Issues Future Policy Global Growth Uncertainties Global Liquidity Volatility in Commodity Prices ASEAN Economic Community Productivity & Competitiveness Infrastructure development Industry revitalization Human capital, Technology and Innovation Improvement Growth acceleration through Productivity, Capacity and Business Competitiveness improvements Manage economic stability and sustainability Price Stabilization Food &Energy Sustainability Domestic economy as a part of global value chain Inequality and Welfare Improvement Improve people welfare and reduce inequality Financial Market Stability External Balance Inclusive growth Social Security Provide sustainable Fiscal (Budget) Condition Growth Acceleration Poverty and Inequality Fiscal Sustainability Sustainability Food and energy sustainability Exchange Rate Fiscal Sustainability Economic Growth of 5.5% - 6.0% Unemployment Rate 5.5%-5.7% Poverty Rate 9%-10%

21 Monetary Policy Stance 20 On Sept 11, 2014, BI decided to hold the BI Rate at 7.50%, with Lending Facility rate and Deposit Facility rate each kept at 7.50% and 5.75%, respectively. The policy is consistent with ongoing efforts to guide inflation back towards its target corridor of 4.5±1% in 2014 and 4.0±1% in 2015, as well as reduce the current account deficit to a more sustainable level. Bank Indonesia will continue to strengthen the monetary and macroprudential policy mix as well as implement structural policies to boost domestic economy while also managing the external debt, in particular corporate external debt. BI will also increase coordination efforts with the Government in terms of inflation control and the current account deficit order to shore up the economic rebalancing process.

22 Macroeconomic Projections: More Balanced Growth Prospect in Although global economy is still projected to have down side risks, Indonesia economic stability in 2014 would be maintained, supported by moderate economic growth, well anchored inflation within its target, as well as a healthier current account deficit Projection World GDP Advanced Countries United States Euro Zone Japan Emerging and Developing Economies China India Other Emerging Market Countries
