Why Business Confidence matters for IDR
Business investment drives productivity and potential output. Confidence surveys lead actual capital spending by several months, giving an early read on whether the Indonesia economy is likely to accelerate or slow.
How to interpret this series
Above-consensus business confidence is idr-supportive as it implies planned investment and hiring that will sustain growth. Deteriorating confidence raises the prospect of a capex and hiring pullback, which is dovish.
