Bank Jabar sees robust market in Jakarta

Bank Jabar launched four new branch offices in Jakarta, and will soon be opening five offices in other cities.

BJB president director Bien Subiantoro said the bank aimed to open more branches outside its home base in West Java and Banten, given the fact that the bank’s branches in those provinces “have become too crowded”.

“That’s why we need to expand outside our regional home base and we see Jakarta as the market with the best potential, not only for its status as capital or its proximity to our headquarters in Bandung but also for its contribution to our assets,” said Bien.

The four new offices will be added to its five existing branches in Jakarta. The new branches are on Jl. HR Rasuna Said and Jl. Dr. Saharjo in South Jakarta, and on Jl. Let. Jend. S Parman and Jl. Daan Mogot in West Jakarta.

He said the Jakarta branches comprised the second-largest contributor to the bank after its home base. Jakarta branches contributed Rp 9.7 trillion, or 25 percent, of the bank’s total third-party deposits of Rp 47.5trillion last year, while West Java and Banten contributed Rp 28.6 trillion or 60.21 percent of the total.

The bank has aims to have 200 service points in Jakarta by the end of this year.

Besides Jakarta, Bien said the bank would be launching branch offices in Singaparna regency and Jatinangor,Sumedang regency, both in West Java.

He added that the bank would soon be establishing further branch offices in Yogyakarta; Malang, East Java; and Purwokerto, Central Java, and it expected to have 600 micro-credit outlets operating by the end of this year, compared to its current 207 outlets.

BJB currently has 62 branches and 299 subbranches nationwide.

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.
