The government and House of Representatives Commission XI, which oversees financial affairs and other policy areas, has approved the basic macroeconomic assumptions for the 2026 state budget. The agreement was reached on Monday in a meeting involving representatives of the government, Bank Indonesia (BI) and the Financial Services Authority (OJK). The assumptions remain unchanged from those set out in the 2026 Macroeconomic Framework and Fiscal Policy Principles (KEM-PPKF). Economic growth is projected to fall between 5.2 and 5.8 percent, with inflation targeted at 1.5 to 3.5 percent. The rupiah exchange rate is expected to remain within the range of Rp 16,500 to Rp 16,900 per United States dollar.The yield on 10-year government bonds (SBN) is set between 6.6 and 7.2 percent, slightly lower than the 2025 outlook of 6.8 to 7.3 percent. The House also endorsed the national development targets, including an open unemployment rate (TPT) of 4.44 to 4.96 percent and a poverty rate of 6.5 to 7.5 percent. The extreme poverty rate is targeted to drop to as low as zero to 0.5 percent, while the Gini ratio is projected at 0.377 to 0.38. Source : https://www.thejakartapost.com/business/2025/07/08/govt-house-commission-agree-on-key-macroeconomic-assumptions.html (ICE GIACARTA)
