Indonesia's official reserve assets stood at $152.6 billion at the end of June 2025, slightly up from $152.5 billion recorded in May, according to the latest statement by Bank Indonesia (BI) on Monday. The increase was mainly driven by tax and service receipts, as well as proceeds from the government's global bond issuance, despite the central bank's continued efforts to stabilise the rupiah amid ongoing global financial market uncertainty. The current reserve level is equivalent to 6.4 months of imports, or 6.2 months of imports and servicing of the government's external debt — well above the international adequacy benchmark of three months of imports. Bank Indonesia also reiterated its commitment to strengthening policy coordination with the government to safeguard external resilience and maintain economic stability in support of sustainable growth.
