##印尼央行维持基准利率不变，印尼盾持续升值
雅加达8月21日电 (记者 李志全)印度尼西亚中央银行今日宣布，将基准利率维持在6.25%不变，这是印尼央行连续第四个月维持该利率不变，符合市场预期。同时，存款利率维持在5.5%，贷款利率维持在7%。
印尼央行理事会在8月20日至21日举行的会议上做出上述决定。今年4月，印尼央行曾将基准利率提高25个基点至6.25%，旨在加强印尼盾汇率的稳定性。当时，印尼盾汇率持续走低，一度逼近1美元兑换16300印尼盾的新低点，跌至四年来最低水平。
然而，自4月以来，印尼盾汇率已开始回升。截至8月20日，印尼盾汇率已升至15430印尼盾/美元，较2024年7月底升值5.34%。与泰铢、日元、菲律宾比索和韩元等其他地区货币的升值相比，印尼盾的升值更为显著。
印尼央行行长佩里·瓦吉约表示，维持基准利率在6.25%不变的决定符合印尼央行的稳定承诺，旨在进一步稳定印尼盾，并确保2024年和2025年的通胀率受控。他指出，在资本流入的背景下，印尼盾已开始升值，升值幅度超过了区域内新兴市场其他货币。展望未来，印尼盾有望走强。
分析人士认为，印尼央行维持基准利率不变的决定表明，印尼经济基本面稳固，通胀压力可控。印尼盾的持续升值也反映了投资者对印尼经济的信心。
然而，一些专家也提醒，全球经济前景仍存在不确定性，美联储加息等因素可能对印尼盾汇率造成一定影响。印尼央行需要密切关注全球经济形势，并采取必要的措施维护印尼盾的稳定。

JAKARTA, Aug. 21 (Xinhua) — Bank Indonesia (BI) on Tuesday held its benchmark interest rate steady at 6.25%, marking the fourth consecutive month of unchanged rates and aligning with market expectations. The decision comes as the Indonesian rupiah continues to strengthen.
The centralbank’s board of governors decided to keep the rate unchanged during its meeting on Aug. 20-21. In April, BI had raised the benchmark rate by 25 basis points to 6.25% tobolster the rupiah’s stability. At the time, the rupiah was weakening, hitting a four-year low near 16,300 rupiah per U.S. dollar.
However, the rupiah has since rebounded.As of Aug. 20, it had strengthened to 15,430 rupiah per dollar, up 5.34% from the end of July 2024. The rupiah’s appreciation has been more significant compared to other regional currencies like the Thai baht, Japanese yen, Philippinepeso, and South Korean won.
BI Governor Perry Warjiyo said the decision to maintain the benchmark rate at 6.25% is in line with the central bank’s commitment to stability, aiming to further stabilize the rupiah and ensure controlled inflation in 2024 and 2025. He noted that the rupiah has started to appreciate amid capital inflows, exceeding the appreciation of other emerging market currencies in the region. Looking ahead, the rupiah is expected to strengthen further.
Analysts believe the decision to keep the benchmark rate unchanged indicates a solid Indonesian economic foundation and manageable inflation pressures. The rupiah’s continuedappreciation reflects investor confidence in the Indonesian economy.
However, some experts caution that global economic prospects remain uncertain, and factors like U.S. Federal Reserve rate hikes could potentially impact the rupiah’s exchange rate. BI needs to closely monitor the global economic situation and take necessary measures to maintain the rupiah’s stability.
