INDONESIA - ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

Indonesia, the largest economy in Southeast Asia, has seen a slowdown in growth since 2012, mostly due to the end of the commodities export boom. During the global financial crisis, Indonesia outperformed its regional neighbors and joined China and India as the only G20 members posting growth. Indonesia’s annual budget deficit is capped at 3% of GDP, and the Government of Indonesia lowered its debt-to-GDP ratio from a peak of 100% shortly after the Asian financial crisis in 1999 to less than 27 percent today. While Fitch and Moody's Investors upgraded Indonesia's credit rating to investment grade in December 2011, Standard & Poor’s has yet to raise Indonesia’s rating to this status amid several constraints to foreign direct investment in the country, such as a high level of protectionism.

Indonesia still struggles with poverty and unemployment, inadequate infrastructure, corruption, a complex regulatory environment, and unequal resource distribution among its regions. President Joko WIDODO - elected in July 2014 – seeks to develop Indonesia’s maritime resources and pursue other infrastructure development, including significantly increasing its electrical power generation capacity. Fuel subsidies were significantly reduced in early 2015, a move which has helped the government redirect its spending to development priorities. Indonesia, with the nine other ASEAN members, will continue to move towards participation in the ASEAN Economic Community, though full implementation of economic integration has not yet materialized.

In performing its activities in Indonesia, the Bank is principally governed by Law of the Republic of Indonesia No. 7/1992 regarding Banking as amended by Law of the Republic of Indonesia No. 10/1998. The Bank's operational activities are conducted through the Jakarta branch and its nine sub-branches in Jakarta and other cities in Indonesia and also one cash office in Jakarta.

The economy in 2017 is projected to post higher growth; national level this is expected to result from infrastructure projects, while rebound of commodity prices will drive improvement at the global level. Government policies will further boost the economy in next year. The Banking industry will still be operating in a highly competitive environment especially with the emergence of new players, the start-up financial technology companies that offer ease of service compared to conventional banking services. To compete, banks today need to improve, upgrade their technology system and be innovative in order to ensure they are able provide similarly convenient services. Internet banking, mobile banking, SMS banking and IT-based services have become banks’ standard features, as customers demand greater ease, speed, and transaction security. The Bank responds to these challenges by providing services tailored to the customers’ needs. The Bank has widened its network by opening new branch offices in several locations to improve access, refined its products and services, and enhanced the skills of its human resource.
