Mandiri partners with Indian bank for remittance operations

Tie-up between Mandiri and SBI Indonesian unit aimed to capitalise on numerous Indians working overseas.

Thomas Arifin, PT Bank Mandiri's director said Wednesday the bank was expanding its international remittance business by forming a partnership with the local subsidiary of State Bank of India.

He said there was enormous potential given the huge number of Indians working abroad in Asia.

"Through the partnership, remittances through Mandiri in rupee and US-dollar denominations are expected to reach $3 billion," Arifin said in a report in the Jakarta Globe.

Trade between Indonesia and India over the last three years grew 35 percent annually and is expected to reach $15 billion this year.

What is Lorem Ipsum?

What is Lorem Ipsum? Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
