According to data from Bank Indonesia (BI), Indonesia's foreign exchange reserves have continued to decline since the beginning of this year.

It was recorded that in January 2026, Indonesia's foreign exchange reserves reached US$154.6 billion. In February 2026, they fell to US$151.9 billion.

The latest data in March 2026 further dropped to US$148.2 billion.

BI stated that the foreign exchange reserves position was influenced by the issuance of government global bonds, tax and service receipts amid the repayment of the government's foreign debt, and the policy of stabilizing the rupiah exchange rate.

"This stabilization policy is a response by Bank Indonesia to the increasing uncertainty in global financial markets," BI wrote on April 8, 2026.

Accordingly, the financing capacity ratio also declined. In January, the value of foreign exchange reserves was equivalent to 6.1 months of import payments and the government's foreign debt (LN).

The figure fell to 5.9 months in February 2026 and 5.8 months in March 2026.

Nevertheless, BI assessed that the foreign exchange reserves in March 2026 were still able to support the resilience of the external sector and maintain macroeconomic and financial system stability.

"Going forward, Bank Indonesia believes that the resilience of the external sector remains good, supported by adequate foreign exchange reserves and foreign capital inflows in line with investors' positive perceptions of the national economic outlook and still attractive investment returns," BI wrote.
