Overview
Indonesia enters end-March 2026 amid intensifying global uncertainty driven by escalating geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, particularly around the Strait of Hormuz. Energy markets remain under pressure, with oil prices trending higher and raising concerns over inflation spillovers and fiscal burden. The situation has increased risks to global supply chains, particularly for energy and shipping, which could translate into higher imported inflation. At the same time, financial markets are turning more volatile as investors closely monitor ceasefire negotiations between the US, Israel, and Iran. Domestically, Indonesia maintains a relatively stable macro footing, supported by proactive fiscal measures and resilient domestic demand. The government continues to deploy liquidity into the banking system to sustain credit growth ahead of Lebaran, reinforcing short-term economic momentum. However, early signs of cost-push pressure are emerging, particularly in sectors exposed to fuel costs such as aviation. Meanwhile, equity markets are showing cautious behavior, with weaker breadth and increased sensitivity to global developments. Overall, while domestic fundamentals remain intact, rising external risks related to energy, geopolitics, and trade are increasingly shaping Indonesia’s near-term outlook.
