02-Feb-2026

Indonesia in January reported its quickest pace of inflation in nearly three years, its statistics bureau said on Monday, as it also released surprisingly strong export and import growth in December. The inflation rate accelerated to 3.55% in January from 2.92% a month prior, below the 3.78% that was expected by analysts polled by Reuters. The January reading was slightly above the central bank's target range of 1.5% to 3.5% and marked the fastest pace since May 2023, LSEG Refinitiv data showed.
