Indonesian senior ministers question MSCI for not discussing downgrade warning during Bangkok meeting

Reuters Jakarta, October 16 - Indonesia's Chief Economic Minister Airlangga Hartarto stated on Friday that there is "a big question mark" regarding why MSCI did not discuss downgrading the country's rating to "standalone" status at this week's Bangkok meeting.

He made this remark ahead of a high-level meeting of Indonesian officials, which included the finance minister, central bank governor, and other relevant officials. The meeting was convened to discuss MSCI's announcement.
