In carrying out its duties as the central bank, Bank Indonesia was managed by the Monetary Board, Board of Directors and Board od Advisors. The monetary board issued monetary policies, although the government was accountable for it. After it had been amalgamated into a single bank, during the early period of the New Order , the underlying act of Bank Indonesia was amended through Act No 13 of 1968 concerning the Central Bank.
