Indonesia’s foreign exchange reserves rose modestly in August 2026, reaching $146.50 billion, up from $145.30 billion in July, according to data updated on 7 September 2026.
The $1.2 billion increase suggests a further strengthening of Indonesia’s external buffers, with the August figure marking a continuation of the upward trend seen in mid-2026. While no additional details were provided on the drivers of the rise, the higher reserve level typically supports currency stability and enhances the country’s resilience against external shocks.
The latest reading for August 2026, coming on the heels of July’s $145.30 billion, will be closely watched by investors and analysts assessing Indonesia’s capacity to manage potential volatility in global financial markets and trade flows.
