To promote sustainable financial sector deepening and inclusion, the authorities could consider a more coordinated, cross-cutting approach by addressing root causes. To promote inclusive economic growth and strengthen financial markets, the authorities pursue a diverse policy mix which includes: expansion of the KUR credit guarantee program with an interest subsidy add-on; a deposit interest rate ceiling; requirements for non-bank financial institutions to hold debt issued by the government and state-owned enterprises; and moral suasion to lower bank lending rates. However, these measures may not prove effective in achieving sustainably higher growth and financial deepening. 2017-09-25T17:41:04Z 2017-09-25T17:41:04Z 2017-06 Report http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/104191505745150824/Indonesia-Financial-Sector-Assessment http://hdl.handle.net/10986/28391 English en_US CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo World Bank World Bank, Washington, DC Economic & Sector Work Economic & Sector Work :: Financial Sector Assessment Program East Asia and Pacific Indonesia
