Slower Money Supply and Loan Growth Indonesia’s money supply (M2) growth edged down to 7.1% y-o-y in April, from +7.4% in March and +7.2% in February. The moderation was due to a slowdown in domestic operation. This was partly mitigated by a rebound in net foreign operation, which mainly came from the issuance of government external debt during the month. Economist:  Rizki Fajar| +6221 29707065
