Abstract

This study analyses the relationship between inflation, investment, and exchange rates on Indonesia’s rubber exports. The research adopts a quantitative approach, utilising secondary data from 2015 to 2023. The findings reveal a positive correlation between inflation and rubber exports, where rising domestic prices for goods and services lead to the depreciation of the national currency. This depreciation makes rubber exports more competitive in international markets, attracting foreign buyers. Additionally, foreign investment positively impacts rubber exports, with increased investment contributing to improvements in infrastructure, production capacity, and access to the latest technology. Research and development also play a crucial role in fostering product innovation, leading to a broader range of value-added rubber products that expand export opportunities. On the other hand, the study found that the depreciation of the Indonesian rupiah harms exports, implying that when the rupiah depreciates, the volume of exports tends to increase. This is attributed to the lower rubber prices in foreign currencies, enhancing the appeal of Indonesian rubber products in global markets. The study indicates that these economic factors are interrelated and significantly impact Indonesia’s rubber export volumes.
