Indonesia's central government debt reached Rp 3,549.17 trillion by January 2017. This figure represents a 2.37 percent increase compared to the previous month and a 10.19 percent increase compared to the same period the previous year. Currently, government debt comprises State Bonds (SBN) totaling Rp 2,815.71 trillion and loans totaling Rp 733.46 trillion.
Throughout January 2017, government debt increased by Rp 82.21 trillion. At the end of 2016, government debt was recorded at Rp 3,466.96 trillion. This increase stemmed from an Rp 81.88 trillion rise in SBN and an Rp 0.33 trillion increase in loans.
To date, the majority of government debt is denominated in Indonesian Rupiah, accounting for 58 percent. The remainder is in US dollars (30 percent), Japanese yen (7 percent), euros (4 percent), and Singapore dollars and other currencies (1 percent). This means that the exchange rate risk, as reflected in the ratio of foreign currency denominated debt to total debt, remains unchanged compared to last year.
