Jakarta | The Indonesian Credit Guarantee Public Corporation (Perum Jamkrindo) and PT Bank Pembangunan Bengkulu have signed a Cooperation Agreement (PKS) on Bank Guarantee and Multipurpose Credit Guarantee. This strategic partnership aims to expand financial access and services, particularly in the multipurpose credit sector for the public and bank guarantees for corporations and private entities.
"This partnership is highly strategic and aims to enhance the performance of each stakeholder, including increasing the realization of Credit/Financing by Bank BRI Agroniaga while also boosting the Guarantee Volume by Perum Jamkrindo," said Perum Jamkrindo’s Director of Business Guarantee, Bakti Prasetyo, during the PKS signing event on the 1st floor of the Jamkrindo Building in Jakarta on Tuesday (15/01/2016).
The signing was conducted by Perum Jamkrindo's Director of Business Guarantee, Bakti Prasetyo, and Bank Bengkulu's President Director, Wimran Ismaun. The event was witnessed by Perum Jamkrindo’s Director of Finance, Investment, and Risk Management, I Rusdonobanu, and Director of Business Guarantee, R Sophia Alizsa.
Regarding the cooperation with Bank Bengkulu, Bakti Prasetyo hopes that the benefits can be directly felt by the public, particularly in utilizing Credit/Financing products in the multipurpose sector and bank guarantees. The maximum credit limit that Bank Bengkulu can provide to guaranteed borrowers (debtors) under this agreement is Rp500 million for multipurpose credit.
As a guarantee company, Perum Jamkrindo provides guarantees to Bank Bengkulu. Both institutions share the same vision of offering opportunities to people who have previously struggled to access capital sources, particularly for consumer credit.
Another goal of this collaboration is to enhance synergy between the two financial institutions and support the smooth operation of both companies’ business activities.
Perum Jamkrindo also provides guarantees to Bank Jatim, with both institutions sharing the same vision of providing opportunities for individuals and corporations that have previously been unable to access funding sources.
In 2015, Perum Jamkrindo was in a strategic growth position, in line with the company’s increasing equity and assets. By the end of December 2015, Perum Jamkrindo recorded a pre-tax profit of Rp780.179 billion.
