The surge in banking stocks coincided with the emergence of rumours regarding a cabinet reshuffle. President Prabowo Subianto is reported to be inaugurating several ministers and deputy ministers at the State Palace, Central Jakarta, on Monday evening (14/09/2026).

According to monitoring by CNBC Indonesia, several ministers and deputy ministers had already gathered at the State Palace, including the Coordinating Minister for Human Development and Cultural Affairs, Pratikno, and Deputy Finance Minister Suahasil Nazara.

President Prabowo Subianto inaugurated Suahasil Nazara as Finance Minister. Suahasil replaces Purbaya Yudhi Sadewa, who held the position for one year.

The inauguration took place at the State Palace on Monday (14/09/2026), with several ministers, deputy ministers, and other state officials in attendance.

Suahasil arrived at approximately 15:00 WIB, dressed in a black suit and accompanied by his wife.

Suahasil is not a new figure within the Ministry of Finance. He previously served as Deputy Finance Minister since the era of President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) and has continued to hold trust within the current administration.
