Global uncertainty, fueled by the potential for further interest rate hikes by the US Federal Reserve and the depreciation of the Indonesian Rupiah to near Rp 14,000 per US dollar, has sparked investor concerns in the market. This triggered foreign investors to exit the domestic bond and stock markets.

The Directorate General of Financing and Risk Management at the Ministry of Finance recorded a Rp 24.4 trillion decrease in foreign ownership of Government Bonds (SUN) and State Sharia Securities (SBSN) at the end of April 2018, falling to Rp 845.34 trillion from the previous month. Consequently, the portion of foreign ownership in government bonds dropped to 38.44% from 39.31% the previous month.

Throughout April 2018, the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) also experienced selling pressure, with foreign investors recording net sales of Rp 10.38 trillion. As a result, the Jakarta Composite Index (JCI) fell 3.14% to 5,994 during the month. Similarly, the Indonesia Bond Pricing Agency's composite bond index (ICBI) decreased by 0.8% to 242.22.
