Indonesia inflation pegged to hit 3.5-5.5% in 2013-2014

While GDP growth may see an uptick.

According to OCBC, as widely expected, BI kept its policy rate unchanged at 5.75% on Thursday, stating the fact that current rate remains inline with the current inflation trajectory. Inflation is seen to remain orderly in the 3.5-5.5% range for 2013-2014.

"GDP growth is also likely to pick up in 2013 and 2014, and with this, the central bank sees little need to adjust its monetary policy at this juncture. The near-term focus for the BI is set to be maintaining stability in financial markets and monitoring the current account," it further said.

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.
