Indonesia's S&P Rating Affirmed; DBS Flags Weak Risk Uptake

S&P Global Ratings has retained Indonesia's sovereign credit rating and stable outlook, pointing to the country's fiscal discipline and expectations of rationalized flagship government spending.

DBS Group Research economist Radhika Rao observes that while the affirmation is a positive signal, near-term optimism is constrained by weak global risk uptake. The assessment underscores Indonesia's resilience but highlights external headwinds.
