IDR/KRW

IDRKRW denotes the exchange rate of the Indonesian Rupiah (IDR) quoted against the South Korean Won (KRW), indicating how many won are exchanged for one rupiah. It is a cross-currency quotation used to compare the relative value between Indonesia’s and South Korea’s legal tender.

The Indonesian Rupiah is the official fiat currency of the Republic of Indonesia, used across the archipelago for domestic transactions and pricing. Bank Indonesia, the country’s central bank, issues and manages the rupiah, implementing monetary policy, foreign exchange operations, and financial stability measures.

The South Korean Won serves as the national currency of the Republic of Korea and is regulated by the Bank of Korea. As the country’s legal medium of exchange, the won is central to South Korea’s trade-intensive economy and is subject to policy decisions, reserves management, and macroprudential actions by the central bank.

Movements in the IDRKRW rate are driven by market supply and demand, interest rate differentials, inflation gaps, balance of payments flows and central bank interventions. Geopolitical developments, commodity prices and investor risk sentiment also influence capital flows and short-term volatility between the two currencies.

For market participants, IDRKRW is relevant for exporters, importers and investors seeking to hedge currency risk, engage in speculative positions or gain exposure to conditions in Southeast Asian and East Asian markets.
