A Wall Street Journal survey of nine economists found six expect Bank Indonesia
to raise the 7-day reverse repo rate by 25bp to 6.0% on Wednesday; three expect
the rate to be left unchanged. HSBC economists said Bank Indonesia has
implemented a series of rate hikes and liquidity measures to support the
economy; while those actions have attracted some capital inflows, the rupiah
remains under pressure amid rising oil prices, providing rationale for another
hike.
