The US Central Bank Interest Tribe is predicted to rise. What about Rupiah's fate?

The governor of the Indonesian Bank (BI) Destry Damayanti predicts the Central Bank rate of the United States (US) or The Federal Reserve will rise October. But the rise is estimated to be minimal.

This was delivered to President Prabowo Subianto in a limited meeting at the Royal Palace, Jakarta Center, Monday (19 / 10 / 2026).

"Fed Funds Rate is expected to rise, but probability in October will be smaller at this time, so that will certainly be one of our rupiah challenges," said Dedrry after the meeting.

He also exposed Rupiah's currency will still be volatile because the global situation is still erratic. The high interest situation of the US central bank is prolonged alias higher for longer also concern, let alone the value of inflation that is still far above the target.

Dedry claims in two days that Rupiah is still well guarded. And even though there was a release, it was in line with the trend of developing countries.

"But so far these two days we can maintain the stability, so it did slow down a bit of a delay and it also corresponds to some of the countries in the emerging market," light Destrry.

Destrry adding an BI will always keep intervening in the market. He claims to have asked President Prabowo Subianto to intervene at the market spot, Domestic Non-Deliverable Forward, and Non- Deliverable Forward.

"To date it can produce both inflow in the effect spot or in the shape of DNDF worth about US $8-9 billion," obviously.
