Despite the small margin, the rupiah's gain was the highest in Asia today. Analysts said this was due to Bank Indonesia's (BI) signal that they will increase the 7-day reverse repo rate (7DRR) again. Another contributing factor was the MSCI Emerging Markets Currency index that climbed for the first time this week.


On Wednesday, BI governor Perry Warjiyo said the central bank would take preemptive measures to curb the rupiah depreciation.
