JAKARTA, Feb 16 (Reuters) - Indonesia's central bank
held its key interest rate unchanged on Thursday, emphasising
that the current level should be sufficient to guide inflation
back to within its target range later this year.
Bank Indonesia (BI) kept the benchmark 7-day reverse
repurchase at 5.75%, as expected by the majority of
economists in a Reuters poll.
Its two other main policy rates, the deposit facility and lending facility , were also left
steady at 5.00% and 6.50%, respectively.
