Throughout 2016, Bank Indonesia recorded Indonesia's private external debt at US$158.7 billion, or approximately Rp2,101 trillion, a decrease of approximately 5.3 percent from the previous period. The growth of private external debt continued to decline from an average of 17.9 percent throughout 2010-2014 to only 5.6 percent in the fourth quarter of 2016.

Along with the decrease in the nominal debt, the debt-to-service ratio (DSR) also decreased to 22 percent in the third quarter of 2016. Previously, the DSR ratio reached 24 percent in 2014.

Bank Indonesia (BI) claims that private external debt shrank following the issuance of regulations concerning the principle of prudence in managing the external debt of non-bank corporations. In these regulations, BI mandates that non-bank corporations meet minimum hedging ratios, liquidity ratios, and debt ratings.
