JAKARTA - Governor of Bank Indonesia (BI) Perry Warjiyo admitted that the current global economic situation is still shrouded in continuing uncertainty. The threat of a global economic slowdown and world inflation rates which tend to be at high levels have created pressure in their own right after the pandemic situation several years ago.
Therefore, in facing future economic uncertainty, Perry emphasized that there are three main challenges that need to be paid attention to.
"First, increasing economic and geopolitical fragmentation stemming not only from the Russia-Ukraine conflict, but also geopolitical tensions between China and the United States," he said in a written statement, quoted Monday, September 18.
According to him, this condition then pushed the source of world economic growth to shift. Furthermore, Perry revealed the second point was the rapid development of digitalization which targets various economic and financial sectors, one of which is the payment system.
