JAKARTA - The government recorded new debt withdrawals of IDR 127.3 trillion until January 2026 or equivalent to 15.3 percent of the total debt financing target in the 2026 State Budget which was pegged at IDR 832.2 trillion.
Deputy Minister of Finance Juda Agung explained that the debt financing step was carried out by prioritizing the principles of prudence, flexibility, and fiscal discipline to ensure that the debt position remained within safe limits.
"The realization of debt financing was recorded at Rp. 127.3 trillion or 15.3 percent of the 2026 state budget target. This figure is lower than last year, namely 23.7 percent of the state budget target," he said in a KITA state budget press conference, quoted Tuesday, February 24.
Meanwhile, non-debt financing at the beginning of the year was recorded at minus Rp22.2 trillion or 15.6 percent of the state budget target of minus Rp145.1 trillion.
Meanwhile, this non-debt financing scheme does not add to the country's debt burden, but is allocated for investment in certain sectors.
With this development, the total realization of financing as of January 31, 2026 reached IDR 105.6 trillion or around 15.2 percent of the financing outlook of IDR 689.15 trillion.
"Overall, the realization of financing in 2026 to the end of January reached Rp. 105.06 trillion or 15.2 percent of the target, lower than the 2025 realization of 29.6 percent," he said.
He added that this achievement reflects a more measured financing strategy and is tailored to the government's cash needs, while taking into account the conditions and dynamics of the financial market.
