Indonesia's economy has grown fairly steadily in the 5% range over the past four years, despite global uncertainties. The national economy experienced a slowdown at the beginning of President Joko Widodo and Vice President Jusuf Kalla's administration, growing only 4.88% in 2015 due to energy subsidy cuts deemed misdirected. However, it returned to growth above 5% the following year.

Macroeconomic conditions have been managed well and cautiously, showing continuous improvement year-on-year. This is reflected in the decrease in the unemployment rate to 5.13% in February 2018 from 5.94% in August 2014. The poverty rate also fell to 9.82% from 10.96%, and income inequality decreased to 0.389 from 0.414 at the end of 2014.
