Overview
Global trade and geopolitical risks intensified as the United States escalated its sanctions regime, raising concerns over spillover effects on global supply chains and emerging markets. Indonesia entered 2026 with mixed domestic signals, where seasonal consumption lifted retail activity but consumer confidence remained fragile. Large-scale energy and infrastructure projects continue to anchor state-led growth efforts, even as fiscal space tightens and efficiency pressures mount. The government is increasingly leaning on strategic assets and institutions, including Bank Indonesia and state-owned enterprises, to manage budget constraints. Industrial competitiveness remains a central concern, particularly as wage growth, productivity, and import protection policies intersect. Food security continues to dominate the policy agenda, reflected in rice distribution programs and import quota controls. Regulatory oversight is expanding in response to rising digital transactions and consumer complaints. Politically, President Prabowo is consolidating authority while signaling firm expectations toward SOE leadership. Overall, Indonesia’s policy direction reflects a balance between economic stabilization, structural reform, and political consolidation amid rising global uncertainty.
