    According to a Reuters Poll of Forex Strategists, the U.S. dollar, underpinned by a solid domestic economy and elevated Treasury yields, is likely to remain a formidable opponent against most major currencies as the year progresses. Despite experiencing some fluctuations, the dollar has shown remarkable resilience, buoyed in part by concerns over global growth and issues stemming from China, which have dampened the appetite for riskier assets. As a result, the greenback is forecasted to maintain its strength for the remainder of the year, although a modest softening against major currencies is on the horizon for the following year, especially as the Federal Reserve edges closer to reducing interest rates. FX analysts suggest that while the dollar's present strong performance could extend into 2024, a gradual weakening trend is anticipated alongside shifts in the Fed's monetary policy.

    How to get a good USD to IDR exchange rate

    There are several ways to save on exchange rates when converting US dollar to Indonesian rupiah:

    1. Shop around for the best USD/IDR exchange rate: Exchange rates can vary significantly between different currency exchange providers, so it's important to compare rates from different sources before making a conversion.
    2. Timing is important: Keep an eye on the USD/IDR rate on currency markets, as exchange rates can fluctuate frequently. Try to make your transactions when the exchange rate is in your favor. You can do this easily with our BER Smart Rate Tracker.
    3. Use a credit/debit or travel card that doesn't charge foreign transaction fees: Some credit cards charge additional fees for transactions made in a foreign currency, so it's important to check with your card issuer to see if they charge these fees and what their exchange rate is.
    4. Use a multi-currency account: Having a multi-currency account allows you to hold and transfer money in both USD and IDR at close to the interbank rate. It also allows you to make payments or withdrawals in the local currency while avoiding high conversion fees.
    5. Buy currency in advance: If you know that you will need foreign currency in the future, consider buying it in advance when the exchange rate is favorable.

    The key is reducing excessive costs and fees

    Generally speaking, if you are buying Indonesian rupiah with US dollar, then it's better for the USD/IDR exchange rate to be higher.

    However working against you are the fees all foreign exchange providers charge for providing their service. These fees is usually contained within the exchange rate margin (or difference to the mid-rate).

    The transaction margin you end up being charged can be considerably reduced by around a few percent (of total amount being exchanged) for travel money and possibly over 5% to 6% when sending money. The exact potential savings depends on the currencies being exchanged and the amount you are transferring and if you are willing to shop around.

    Our real-time foreign transfer and travel money/cards comparison calculators make shopping around easy and help you calculate how much you can save.

    It's worth noting that while these tips can help you save on exchange rates, it's important to be aware that no single method is guaranteed to provide the best exchange rate in every situation, and it may require some research and comparison-shopping to find the best option for your specific needs.

    Will the US dollar rise against the Indonesian rupiah?

    It is almost impossible to predict what an exchange rate will do in the future, the best approach is to monitor the currency markets and transact when an exchange rate moves in your favour.

    To help with this you can add USD/IDR to your personalised BER Smart Rate Tracker to track and benefit from currency movements.
