T Bank Negara Indonesia (Persero) Tbk or BNI is committed to transformation to support sustainable economic performance. The company is always open to coordination with various agencies and institutions to tap into economic opportunities more optimally.
For its proactive efforts, BNI was granted three awards from the Indonesia Deposit Insurance Corporation (LPS), which were accepted by BNI human capital and compliance head Mucharom in Jakarta on Tuesday.
BNI was granted awards in three categories: the best bank in delivering LPS insurance programs with the most active role in education, the most active bank in green banking practices and the most active bank in corporate social responsibility (CSR) programs.
Mucharom expressed his appreciation for the awards that BNI had received. The accolades, he said, belonged to the entirety of BNI, from stakeholders and employees to customers and partners, all of whom had played an active part in helping BNI achieve greater heights in sustainable economy.
“These awards will be our motivation to pursue more transformations, especially in optimizing our potential in sustainable economy by joining hands with more stakeholders,” he said.
Throughout the pandemic, he continued, the disruption of the stability of the national financial system had caused customers to voice concerns over the safety of their deposits at banks.
BNI was present and proactive in ensuring customers that LPS had its own programs, function and role in securing their savings, helping to create a conducive environment for the national economy.
The company has also aligned its strategies with the government’s target to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2060. BNI is committed to playing an active role in the energy transition to make room for the optimal utilization of New and Renewable Energy (NRE).
“Moreover, as one of Indonesia’s pioneers in green banking, we support the government in establishing a green economy. This step is taken by maintaining the economic growth trend that is currently recovering,” Mucharom added.
As part of BNI’s service to the wider community, the company fully assists the government through the company’s CSR programs to relieve the negative effects of COVID-19, as well as other disasters occurring across the country.
“As a state-owned bank, BNI bears a bigger responsibility to maintain economic stability through humanitarian initiatives. The programs aren’t just aimed at mitigating the effects of the pandemic and disasters, but also at strengthening the economy with various public assistance programs,” he said.
