FULL! Ekonom Wijayanto Samirin Bicara Imbal Hasil SRBI Melonjak, BI Kejar Stabilitas Rupiah?

JAKARTA, KOMPAS.TV - Here's a revised and clarified version of the description: For the past eight months, Bank Indonesia's benchmark interest rate has remained at 4.75 percent. However, the yield on Bank Indonesia Rupiah Securities (SRBI) in the domestic market has actually increased, even reaching 6.2 percent at the auction on April 29th. Bank Indonesia stated that this policy aims to increase the attractiveness of foreign investors to enter the Indonesian financial market. Furthermore, this measure is also aimed at maintaining the stability of the rupiah exchange rate amidst global economic dynamics. Since the beginning of 2026, total inflows into SRBI instruments have exceeded IDR 54 trillion. However, Bank Indonesia acknowledges that each policy has its own consequences. Economists assess that the difference between the benchmark interest rate and the SRBI yield is part of the central bank's main strategy to maintain rupiah stability. This topic was also discussed with Paramadina University Economist Wijayanto Samirin. Friends of KompasTV, Starting February 1, 2026, KompasTV will change channels.
