Economic Monthly ASEAN & India AKI FUKUCHI, SHOHEI TAKASE ECONOMIC RESEARCH OFFICE TOKYO YUMA TSUCHIYA, MAKIKO STOKES ECONOMIC RESEARCH OFFICE SINGAPORE 1 DECEMBER 1 (ORIGINAL JAPANESE VERSION RELEASED ON DECEMBER 1) MUFG Bank, Ltd. A member of MUFG, a global financial group 1. Indonesia The central bank implemented an additional rate hike Bank Indonesia (BI), the central bank of Indonesia, unexpectedly decided to raise its benchmark 7-day Reverse Repo Rate by basis points (bps) (from.7% to.%) at BI board of governors meeting held on 1-1 November. It is the sixth rate hike since May, bringing a total of 17 bps hike. Since October, rupiah stopped depreciating against the US dollar and appeared to be rebounding. However, it seems that the BI decided on an additional rate hike in order to stabilize financial markets through strengthening fundamentals such as containing current account deficit amid anticipated global policy rate hike including US. Current account deficit widened to -3.% of Nominal GDP in Jul-Sep Current account deficit recorded USD -. billion (-3.% of Nominal GDP) in Jul-Sep, widening from the previous quarter. Although a surplus in secondary income balance widened, goods balance logged a deficit for the first time since Apr-Jun 1 and deficits in services balance and primary income balance widened. Looking at financial account balance, capital inflow by direct investment widened while portfolio investment turned to net outflow. As a result, overall balance logged a deficit for the third consecutive quarter. 7 Chart1:Consumer Price and Policy Rate Former Policy Rate CPI: Transportation, Communication and Finance CPI: Education, Recreation and Sports CPI: Health CPI: Clothing CPI: Housing, Electricity, Gas and Fuel CPI: Food Consumer Price Index Current Policy Rate Chart : Balance of Payments (% of Nominal GDP) Net Error & Omissions Other Investment Portfolio Investment Direct Investment Current Account Balance Overall Balance 3 1 - - -1 1 1 17 1 Source: Indonesia Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS), - 1 1 17 1 Source: Indonesia Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS), 1 Economic Monthly ASEAN & India 1 December 1
