title: Destry Damayanti nominated as Indonesia Central Bank Governor
description: Minister of State Secretariat, Prasetyo Hadi, announced that President Prabowo Subianto has nominated Destry Damayanti as the sole candidate to lead Indonesia’s central bank, Bank Indonesia. Having been appointed last week acting governor, and only a few weeks after her reappointment as deputy governor, Damayanti is set to replace Perry Warjiyo, who recently stepped down for personal reasons, marking a historic first resignation of a governor from the central bank. During a press conference held at the Presidential Palace, Minister Prasetyo confirmed that the President had submitted a presidential letter about Damayanti's nomination to the House of Representatives (DPR). As per the process, members of the DPR will conduct a fit-and-proper test to evaluate her candidacy. "So, there is only one name, namely Ms. Destry Damayanti," Prasetyo stated. The DPR is expected to formally announce the government’s proposal regarding Damayanti’s nomination on Tuesday, August 11, 2026. As of the latest updates, the House had yet to comment on the nomination but is scheduled to announce it publicly. Destry Damayanti is an accomplished economist, having served as the Senior Deputy Governor of Bank Indonesia since 2019. With a background in various financial institutions and her role in the Indonesia Deposit Insurance Corporation, she is well-prepared for this pivotal position within the country’s monetary system. You can see her profile on the Bank Indonesia website.

Does Competition Always Lower Prices?
type: Article
title: Does Competition Always Lower Prices?
description: Different types of competition affect prices differently Not all competition is created equal. Perfect competition, which features prices that drop to the point where firms are barely covering their costs, is the ideal of economic efficiency. It’s easy to see this in action in certain industries — petrol stations and grocery stores come to mind. Petrol (or gas) stations typically post their prices on large, easy-to-read signs. If you drive around town long enough, you’ll notice that the price of fuel at these stations tends to move in tandem. When one price falls, so do the others, and vice versa. Gas is a commodity — a good with little differentiation — so consumers tend to seek the lowest price, and firms have little ability to price it above their costs. This means that inefficient firms (i.e.: with high costs) are forced out of business as the most efficient firms (i.e.: low costs) set their prices near their low costs. Customers flock to the efficient firms, the inefficient firms shut down, and prices stay low. Budget-friendly grocers like the German chains Lidl and Aldi and the US chain Walmart are comparable. At these types of grocers, food prices tend to be quite low. And, it’s not uncommon to see promises of price matching among their aisles. You can even witness competition lowering prices yourself in some grocery stores. In the UK, Sainsbury’s is a grocery chain with a price match guarantee for Aldi. If a customer finds a good at Aldi that’s cheaper than it is at Sainsbury’s, the grocer will lower the price to match Aldi’s. This is a clear example of how perfect competition works — rather than lose a customer, a firm will lower its prices to match its rival’s. This perfect competition ideal is common, and it does genuinely lower prices, but it’s far from the only way that markets operate in the real world. Economists have identified several other types of competition where prices are set differently. Imperfect competition Many of the markets in today’s ec…
disambiguating description: Competition is one of the foundational concepts in economics. We’re taught in intro courses that competition lowers prices, because it allows markets to allocate resources efficiently. This is an example of Adam Smith’s “invisible hand” in action, a cornerstone of economic theory. But does competition always lower prices? The answer is, yes, sort of — it just depends on the degree of competition. Since that answer probably doesn’t satisfy anybody, let’s dig deeper.
