Bank Indonesia ensures that the direction of monetary policy will not change even though Perry Warjiyo resigned as BI Governor. The central bank emphasized that the stability of the rupiah exchange rate remained a priority amid leadership changes.

Acting Governor of BI Destry Damayanti said all policy instruments that had been decided in the Board of Governors Meeting (RDG) would continue to be implemented.

"Our policy stance has not changed. Exchange rate stability will remain the key to our current policy," Destry said at the Presidential Palace Complex, Jakarta, Monday, July 27.

According to Destry, BI will remain in the market through interventions in the spot market, Domestic Non Deliverable Forward (DNDF), and Non Deliverable Forward (NDF) to maintain rupiah stability.

In addition, macroprudential policies aimed at encouraging economic growth will also continue.

Destry said BI also maintained incentives for foreign capital flows by lowering hedging costs to maintain the inflow of funds into the domestic market.

The policy is part of the results of the BI RDG in July 2026 and remains valid even if there is a change of leadership.

According to Destry, the leadership of BI is carried out collectively so that all members of the Board of Governors continue to work to carry out the central bank's mandate.

"The five of us together with other members of the Board of Governors will continue to carry out our duties in accordance with the mandate given to Bank Indonesia," he said.
