Currently, the benchmark interest rate of the United States Federal Reserve (The Fed) stands at 0.25%, its lowest level since March 2020.

However, in the near future, The Fed is expected to raise its benchmark interest rate to control the rising US inflation.

Meanwhile, Bank Indonesia's benchmark interest rate, or the BI 7-Days Reserve Repo Rate, is currently at 3.5%, resulting in a net interest rate differential of 3.25 percentage points compared to The Fed's rate.

Given the significant net interest rate differential between BI and The Fed, investments in the Indonesian Rupiah remain quite attractive due to their better returns compared to the US dollar.

Several other developed countries are also still implementing low benchmark interest rates, in line with low inflation in their respective countries, and to stimulate economic growth.

The European Central Bank (ECB)'s benchmark interest rate is recorded at 0%. The Bank of Japan (BoJ) and the Swiss National Bank (SNB) even apply negative benchmark interest rates of -0.1% and -1.75%, respectively.

However, some countries have set their benchmark interest rates at the highest levels. For example, the benchmark interest rate of the Argentine central bank is 38%, Yemen's is 27%, and Venezuela's reaches 52.7%.
