The Special Floating with Floor
The Floating with Floor system means floating with the minimum limit, and this system is closely related to BI7DRR. In simple terms, the value of a coupon will increase according to the BI7DRRR interest rate but will not drop past the predetermined minimum limit and will be reviewed every three months. Floating with Floor is commonly known by Retail Bond Investor. It refers to the coupon or the amount of interest they’ll receive depending on the BI7DRR, also known as the BI-7 Day Reverse Repo Rate. As interest rates increases, so do the amount of coupons they’ll receive!
FIX Rate
If compared with Floating with Floor, that's always affected by the interest rate, Fixed rate coupons generate a stagnant value with its original interest rate and will not change until maturity.
ST009 Investment for the Nation, with a Floating with Floor Coupon

The increase in Government Bonds was influenced by intervention from BI to strengthen the stabilization of the rupiah so that it remains at a reasonable market value as an effort to control inflation, mainly imported inflation, through intervention in the foreign exchange market, both spot transactions, domestic non-deliverable forwards (DNDF), as well as purchases/ sale of Government Securities (SBN) in the secondary market.
