Indonesia central bank seen cutting key rate again

Indonesia's central bank, which kept its benchmark reference rate unchanged for nearly all of 2015, is expected to make its second cut this year on Thursday as it tries to bolster the country's sluggish growth.

South-East Asia's largest economy grew 4.8% in 2015, the fifth straight year of slowing and the weakest pace since 2009. But growth picked up in the final quarter, showing some signs of recovery.

Bank Indonesia (BI) trimmed its key rate by 25 basis points last month. Thirteen of 19 economists in a Reuters poll predict a same-size cut on Thursday, reducing the rate to 7%.
