JAKARTA, Aug. 20 (Xinhua) -- Indonesia's central bank has disbursed macroprudential liquidity incentives totaling 384 trillion rupiah (about 23.5 billion U.S. dollars) by the first week of August 2025, Governor Perry Warjiyo said Wednesday.
"Bank Indonesia continues to strengthen the implementation of macroprudential liquidity incentive policies to drive bank lending growth," Warjiyo told a press conference.
The incentives were channeled through state-owned banks, regional development banks, domestic private commercial banks, and foreign bank branches, according to the official.
Support is targeted at priority sectors, including agriculture, real estate, public housing, construction, trade, manufacturing, transportation, warehousing, tourism, the creative economy, as well as small businesses and green enterprises.
Bank Indonesia said the policy will continue to be reinforced to ensure incentives flow into sectors contributing most to economic growth and job creation. ■
