Foreword

I welcome the publication of Financial Stability Review No. 14 March 2010. The publication of the Review is critical
as it communicates to a large audience developments and prospects of financial system stability.
This issue of the Review comes to us at a time in which the world economy has started to show signs of recovery
even though the global crisis has not completely dissipated. In fact, we have actually recently witnessed the emergence of
new international issues such as the fiscal crisis in Greece. We view that recovery on a global level is very important as the
increasingly integrated global financial system potentially allows shocks from the international economy to immediately
impact Indonesia. It is therefore essential for us to maintain vigilant towards our financial system.
The Indonesian economy and financial sector has fared much better compared to that of on a global level. Such is
the result of various policies taken by the Government and Bank Indonesia in 2008 and 2009 aimed at taming impacts of
the crisis which peaked in November 2008. The successful policies allowed the economy to grow at a relatively high level
while inflation is kept relatively low and exchange rate adequately managed. With this background, the BI rate has been
maintained at a low and stable level of 6.5% since August 2009.
Riding on the back of such a conducive economy, the banking industry continues to showcase good performance.
At the end of December 2009 the Capital Adequacy Ratio was recorded as exceeding 17% with well-controlled earning
asset quality as reflected by gross and net NPLs of 3.3% and 0.3% respectively. With such well-managed asset quality,
banks were able to produce relatively high levels of profit with ROAs at approximately 2.6% while keeping liquidity wellcontrolled.
Meanwhile the stock market and non bank financial market performance shows encouraging signs and thus breeding optimism about better conditions in the financial system ahead. Such optimism appears to be appropriately called for
as the sovereign rating and rating of several of Indonesia»s big banks are increasing and nearing investment grade.
Such developments are encouraging, however, they should not distract us from the challenges which potentially
can become sources of instability. One of the challenges faced is the low credit growth level which in 2009 only reached
10% (year-on-year). The slow credit growth deserves our serious attention. If the credit slump continuous, the growth of
the economy as a whole will be at stake. Such credit slump also potentially impedes financing of the corporate and
household sector which, in turn, can cause problem loans in the banking sector to increase.

vi

Another important challenge we must face is the increase in short term capital inflows. Such inflows potentially
increase as the economy improves and will put the financial system to be more vulnerable to sudden reversals. As such, it
is very important to maintain investors» trust by continuously promoting effective market discipline supported by improvements in financial sector governance. The Financial Sector Assessment Program (FSAP) which was conducted from the
end of 2009 to early 2010 is expected to become an important reference for efforts in improving the financial sectorƒ
with the banking industry as no exception.
By knowing the opportunities and challenges faced by the financial sector as mentioned above, the financial sector
is expected to continue its advancement and be spared from excess risks. As such, improvements in surveillance must
continue. This can be achieved by, among others, renewing and perfecting the tools and methodologies used for early
detection. In closing, it is my hope that the Review is able to serve its mission to communicate to the public surveillance
results of financial system stability developments and its prospects ahead.

Overview

Financial sector resilience during semester-II 2009 was adequately
maintained, supported by conducive macroeconomic conditions including,
among others, low inflation and interest rates, as well as controlled
exchange rate volatility. The banking industry, the dominant industry in
the financial sector, remained sound; reflected by sufficiently high CAR
and profitability, high-quality earning assets and relatively well-managed
liquidity. The stock market and bonds market both indicated improvements
compared to the previous semester. However, a number of sources of
instability remained, including among others, the enduring global crisis,
slow credit allocation and a surge in short-term capital inflows. Looking
forward, risk mitigation measures require further strengthening to ensure
financial system stability and a favorable outlook.

Macroeconomic Conditions and
the Real Sector

Macroeconomic stability in Indonesia was well maintained during semester
II of 2009 on the back of strong domestic demand, a stable banking
industry and increasingly optimistic expectations of a global economic
recovery. In addition, an accommodative fiscal and monetary policy stance
buoyed the Indonesian economy in the midst of widespread pressures
stemming from the global crisis. Against this propitious backdrop,
domestic economic growth in Indonesia outpaced that of various other
countries. Looking ahead, the Indonesian economy has the potential to
continue improving in accordance with the growing momentum of the
global economic recovery. Notwithstanding, several risk factors, external
and internal, require continued attention, for example potential hikes in
the global oil price as well as domestic micro-structural challenges, which
include weak industrial sector competitiveness and stagnant infrastructural
development.
