Indonesia’s economy beat forecasts and grew the fastest since 2013 in April-June, helped by robust consumption during the holy month of Ramadan, but headwinds cloud the outlook for lifting growth well above 5 per cent, Reuters reports. ING Groep N.V expects the strong performance of Indonesian households and government spending to bring overall economic growth to an average of 5.2 per cent this year, mildly higher than 2017’s growth of 5.1 per cent and slightly below the consensus forecast of 5.3 per cent. President Joko Widodo’s administration is under pressure to protect the $1 trillion economy from a deepening emerging-market rout and a widening current-account gap. He’s shoring up foreign-exchange reserves to support the rupiah, which weakened more than 6 percent this year, according to Bloomberg.
