The Implementation of Holt-Winters Method to Forecast the Loan Interest Rate of Indonesia

Abstract
This study aimed to anticipate the rupiah loan interest rates at commercial banks in Indonesia by employing the Holt-winters method. This study employs data on rupiah loan interest rates from commercial banks in Indonesia. The data comprises a time series element, with monthly intervals spanning from January 2013 to November 2015, which was obtained from the official website of BPS Indonesia. The study demonstrates that the Holt-winters technique yields the most accurate forecasts, as indicated by a Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) of 0.19720630. The parameters alpha, beta, and gamma, set at 0.6, 0.6, and 0.6 respectively, constitute the optimal configuration for this method. These results indicate that the Holt-winters method is an effective tool for capturing seasonality, trends, and patterns in credit interest rate data, making it a reliable choice for future loan interest rate forecasting. The findings of this study are expected to significantly contribute to strategic decision-making in the banking sector, particularly in risk management and loan interest rate strategy determination.
