- Perry Warjiyo unexpectedly stepped down as governor of Indonesia's central bank, described by multiple outlets as a surprise resignation.
- Indonesia's rupiah softened following the announcement, according to Reuters, while Bloomberg framed the exit as another blow to investor trust in the country.
Why it matters: A surprise exit at a central bank rattles investors who had priced in policy continuity, and the rupiah's immediate softening reflects that loss of confidence in Indonesian monetary policy stability.
