First, rupiah stability is the price stability of goods and services, as reflected by inflation. The second dimension relates to rupiah exchange rate stability against other currencies. Indonesia implements a free-floating exchange rate regime and exchange rate stability is necessary to achieve and maintain price and financial system stability. |
