FX.co ★ Indonesia’s Quarterly Growth Slows Sharply as Q3 GDP Expansion Cools to 1.59%

Indonesia’s economic momentum eased in the third quarter of 2026, with quarter‑on‑quarter GDP growth slowing to 1.59%, down from 3.73% in the second quarter of 2026.

According to the latest data updated on 05 November 2026, the current figure reflects a clear deceleration in short‑term growth. On a quarter‑over‑quarter basis, the third‑quarter result (1.59%) is compared with the robust expansion recorded in the previous period (3.73%), which measured growth in the second quarter against the first quarter of 2026.

The data underscore a loss of pace in Indonesia’s near‑term economic expansion, as the strong rebound seen earlier in the year has given way to more moderate quarterly gains. Investors and policymakers will be watching forthcoming releases closely for signs of whether this slowdown marks a temporary cooling or the start of a more prolonged softening in growth.
