Abstract

The effect of exchange rate depreciation on the balance-sheet of non-financial firms has been a major issue in international finance. In this paper we test and estimate the balance sheet effects of exchange rate depreciation in non-financial firms in Indonesia. Using a sample of publicly traded non-financial firms in The Jakarta Stock Exchange (JSX) we found that in the investment in current assets, the balance-sheet-effect of the exchange rate depreciation dominates its competitiveness effect. On the other hand, the presence of balance-sheet effect is not significant in the investment in inventories.
