Jakarta - Coordinating Minister for Economic Affairs Airlangga Hartarto assessed that Indonesia's economic fundamentals remain solid even though it is facing increasing global uncertainty.
According to him, this is reflected in various key indicators such as stable economic growth in the range of 5 percent, inflation in March 2025 which was controlled at 1.03 percent (yoy), and the banking capital adequacy ratio (CAR) reaching 27 percent.
"Earlier I said that our DPK (Third Party Funds) is above 5 percent and credit distribution is above 10.42 percent. Then banking liquidity is maintained, the loan to deficit ratio is also at a good figure of 88.92 percent and we also see the capital adequacy ratio is 27 percent. So actually our banking is solid in the current period," said Airlangga at the Economic Discussion event with the President of the Republic of Indonesia in Jakarta, Tuesday.
In his presentation, Airlangga highlighted external pressures originating from increasing global geopolitical tensions, US trade protectionism, and tightening of monetary policies by a number of developed countries.
The reciprocal tariff policy imposed by the US is an additional trigger that could disrupt the stability of world trade.
