The Deputy Governor of Bank Indonesia (BI), Filianingsih Hendarta,\nstated that G20 nations recognise the importance of economic stability\nfoundations and policy certainty to drive investment, expand employment\nopportunities, and strengthen business growth amidst global\nuncertainty.<\/p>\n
She conveyed this during the G20 Finance Ministers and Central Bank\nGovernors Meeting (G20 FMCBG) held from 31 August to 1 September 2026 in\nthe United States. The meeting was also attended by other Indonesian\nrepresentatives, including Deputy Finance Minister Juda Agung, with the\nIndonesian delegation led directly by Filianingsih Hendarta.<\/p>\n
\u201cEconomic stability and policy certainty are essential foundations\nfor driving investment, expanding job opportunities, and strengthening\nbusiness growth amidst global uncertainty,\u201d said Filiantingih, as\nreported on Thursday (3\/9\/2026).<\/p>\n
Bank Indonesia emphasised three critical aspects in the\nimplementation of monetary policy amidst global uncertainty. First,\nmaintaining anchored inflation expectations through comprehensive and\nforward-looking assessments. Second, ensuring that the monetary policy\nframework continues to adapt to increasing global financial integration\nand rapid digitalisation.<\/p>\n
\u201cThese conditions further reinforce the importance of a policy mix\nthrough the synergy of monetary policy, exchange rate stabilisation,\nmacroprudential measures, and payment systems,\u201d she explained.<\/p>\n
Third, strengthening clear, consistent, and credible policy\ncommunication to manage the expectations of economic actors and increase\nthe effectiveness of monetary policy transmission.<\/p>\n
The G20 views the global economy as remaining resilient, supported by\npolicies that maintain macroeconomic stability and encourage growth.\nHowever, several risks still require vigilance, particularly\ngeopolitical tensions, trade and energy supply uncertainties,\ninflationary pressures, high debt levels, and financial market\nvolatility.<\/p>\n
The G20 also encourages calibrated synergy between monetary and\nfiscal policies, structural reforms, increased investment and\ninnovation, as well as the strengthening and diversification of supply\nchains to drive potential growth. Investment in Artificial Intelligence\n(AI) is also a focus for the G20 due to its potential to increase\nproductivity and create new sources of growth.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe use of AI needs to be supported by strengthening financial\nsystem resilience and cybersecurity,\u201d she noted.<\/p>\n
Furthermore, G20 nations are encouraging enhanced cooperation in\nseveral strategic areas, including global imbalances, financial\nliteracy, addressing financial transaction fraud and scams, debt issues,\nand collaboration with the private sector to support stronger and more\nsustainable global growth. The meeting resulted in the G20 Chair\u2019s\nStatement, which summarises the discussions of the G20 Finance Ministers\nand Central Bank Governors regarding various Finance Track priorities\nunder the US G20 Presidency.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/before-g20-nations-indonesia-urges-global-focus-on-three-key-areas-1788400502", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
