Jakarta, 27 Juli 2017 – The hard work, policies, good governance, commitment and the compliance of PT Bank Central Asia Tbk (BCA) to the regulation has resulted in a proud recognition on the national and international stage. This time, The Asian Banker is awarding the Bank BCA with 3 predicates all in the Asian Banker Indonesia Country Awards 2017, namely the Best Private Wealth bank in Indonesia, Best Mortgage and Home Loans Product of The Year, and Best Smart Branch Project in Indonesia.
The three awards were submitted to Executive Vice President (EVP) Wealth Management of BCA Eva Sumampouw, EVP Consumer Credit Business of BCA Felicia Mathilda Simon and Senior Vice President Operation Strategy & Development of BCA Jayaprawirya Diah in Jakarta (27/7). “The current conditions are marked by various challenges, and become a test of the resilience for BCA’s business model. Throughout the year, BCA focuses on exploring and optimizing business opportunities while maintaining prudent principles. Having a proven business model has enabled BCA to produce a solid financial performance,” said Eva.
The Bank BCA takes a proactive yet cautious stance in stimulating credit growth. “Amidst weak loan demand, BCA is gradually lowering interest rates on both consumer and business loans. Thus, BCA managed to record a positive loan portfolio growth in all credit segments. BCA continues to focus on a quality customer base, which has established longstanding relationships and has a good business track record,” Felicia added.
As a result, BCA saw outstanding loans totaled Rp 433 trillion at the end of June 2017 for a 11.9% YoY increase led by corporate and consumer lending. Consumer lending recorded 18.4% YoY growth to Rp 124.5 trillion. Within consumer lending, housing loans grew 21.9% YoY to 75.3 trillion, owing to a competitive interest rate product offered from February to April 2017.
In addition to the three awards, BCA is also included in the ranks of 2000 largest companies in the world in the 2017 Forbes Global 2000 Awards. BCA is successfully ranked in 564 in 2017, from the previous ranking of 620 in 2016. “Every achievement made by BCA has definitely become our source of motivation to maintain the solid business growth and innovation in keeping with the latest technological development to cater the needs of our customer,” Jayaprawirya concluded.
