# Gubernur BI Ungkap Sebab Rupiah Kalah dari Dolar AS

> Indonesia's central bank governor said rupiah weakness reflects global dollar strength driven by rising US bond yields and expectations of three Fed rate hikes this year, along with US-China trade tensions. Bank Indonesia has intervened heavily in FX and government bond markets to stabilize the currency, and the rupiah is down 2.35% year to date.

## Why it matters

Persistent rupiah depreciation raises the local-currency cost of imported feed ingredients for Indonesian buyers. Central bank intervention may limit the pace of decline but not the underlying dollar strength.
