Abstract

This study reveals the fascinating story behind North Sumatra's iconic commodities and how the financial services sector can act as a hidden hero to strengthen their development. Through multiple regression analysis on rubber, arabica coffee, and palm oil production data as well as the 2010-2023 agricultural sector GRDP obtained from the North Sumatra Central Bureau of Statistics, it was found that arabica coffee and rubber significantly boosted regional economic growth, while the potential of palm oil has not been maximized. Like a masked hero, the financial services sector, which includes banks, micro institutions, and fintech, has the ability to provide “superpowers” for North Sumatra's leading commodities. By providing effective access to finance, they can help improve the productivity, quality, and competitiveness of these iconic products. This research proposes smart policy recommendations to strengthen the synergy between the financial services sector and commodity development, bringing North Sumatra towards more inclusive and sustainable economic growth.

Abstract

This study analyzes the effect of interest rates (BI rate) and money supply (M1) on inflation in North Sumatra Province by looking at the role of Bank Indonesia as the monetary authority. Quantitative methodology with multiple regression analysis is used in data processing in this study and uses annual data (2005-2020) obtained from the Central Bureau of Statistics of North Sumatra, Bank Indonesia and the Indonesian national website which is also a source of analysis. The results show a positive and significant impact of interest rates on inflation, while money supply (M1) has a positive but insignificant impact. With a coefficient of determination of 67.36%, most of the variation in inflation is explained by interest rates (BI rate) and money supply (M1). The results have important implications for economic policy formulation and effective decision making in maintaining price stability at the regional level by Bank Indonesia
