Not only that, Agus has maintained good relations with the institutions such as BI, Savings Guaranty Institution, Financial Services Authority (OJK), and international financial institutions, including the World Bank and International Monetary Fund (IMF).
“A good reputation with the World Bank and IMF is needed for policy coordination,” stated Firmanzah.
