ELUCIDATION OF BANK INDONESIA REGULATION NUMBER 9 OF 2025 ON MACROPRUDENTIAL LIQUIDITY INCENTIVE POLICY I. GENERAL To achieve Bank Indonesia’s objective of participating in maintaining financial system stability to support sustainable economic growth, Bank Indonesia determines and implements macroprudential policies, one of which is through efforts to boost balanced, quality, and sustainable intermediation to achieve optimum Credit or Financing target. In this instance, Credit or Financing growth sustainability needs to be maintained considering its role in supporting sustainable economic growth. Currently, financial cycle remains considered below the long-term trend, and therefore, bank’s Credit or Financing growth still requires support from the supply side and the demand side. Accordingly, macroprudential policy which supports Credit or Financing growth needs further strengthening by observing the principle of prudence. Bank Indonesia determines macroprudential policy in the form of KLM regulation to achieve optimum Credit or Financing target. KLM regulation is strengthened by performance-based and forward-looking incentive scheme, namely initial liquidity easing according to the Credit or Financing growth direction. Therefore, the KLM amount, which functions as a reduction to the GWM, is determined based on the Bank’s commitment to extending Credit or Financing and/or other measures that support Credit or Financing growth. With KLM granting, it is expected that the additional liquidity obtained from the reduction in GWM will enhance the Bank’s capacity to extend Credit or Financing, thereby supporting sustainable economic growth. Based on the foregoing, Bank Indonesia needs to re-regulate the provisions for macroprudential liquidity incentive policy.
