Jakarta (B2B) - Nilai tukar rupiah terhadap dolar Amerika Serikat (AS) pada pekan ini diperkirakan masih tertekan karena gejolak ekonomi di Siprus.
Menurut analis pasar uang, kondisi ini mendorong para pelaku pasar mengumpulkan dolar AS yang dianggap sebagai safe haven sehingga mata uang negara lain, termasuk rupiah melemah.
Berdasarkan kurs tengah Bank Indonesia pada Jumat, rupiah rata-rata diperdagangkan di level Rp 9.743 per dolar AS atau melemah dibanding sehari sebelumnya Rp 9.726 per dolar AS.
Selama pekan lalu, rupiah ditransaksikan melemah di kisaran Rp 9.719 per dolar AS–Rp 9.743 per dolar AS.
Jakarta (B2B) - Rupiah exchange rate against US dollar this week is estimated to still be depressed due to Cyprus’ economic bailout.
Money market analysts assess the condition drives market participants to collect US dollar, which is considered as safe haven. The collection causes other currencies, including rupiah, to be depressed.
Based on Bank Indonesia’s Friday’s middle rate, rupiah was traded at Rp 9,743 per US dollar on average, weaker than the previous day’s Rp 9,726 per US dollar.
Last week, rupiah weakened at Rp 9,719 to Rp 9,743 per US dollar.
