BI sees little urgency in adjusting monetary policy

BOP surplus is also forecast to inch upwards.

OCBC Treasury Research noted:

BI indicated that BOP surplus is likely to inch upwards to USD 1.5bn in Q4, despite the current account likely still in the deficit. Separately, BI Deputy Governor Sarwono said that there is little urgency to lift the FASBI deposit rate or adjust its monetary policy at this juncture.

Meanwhile, the Indonesian constitutional court has ruled the existence of energy regulator BPMigas as unconstitutional and has transferred the authority to regulate the energy industry straight back to the government, Chief Econ Minister Rajasa said that there will be no uncertainties concerning the oil & gas sector and that everything will run as usual.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
