Domestic Update
• The government issued SBSN of IDR 13.85 trillion in an auction on Tuesday (10/01/23). The emission value was slightly lower than the indicative target of IDR14 trillion, with a total incoming bid of IDR17.45 trillions. MNCS Comment: Albeit the auctions at the beginning of the year tended to be quiet, we foresee that portfolio rebalancing to fixed income assets, especially SBN, can be a positive catalyst for subsequent SBN auctions, in line with foreign inflows into SBN and a downward trend in yields in response to the disinflationary phenomenon.
