(23/10/2025) - PT Bank Negara Indonesia (Persero) Tbk or BNI together with the Land Bank Agency strengthened strategic synergy in supporting national development and investment through the Landbank Strategic Partnership Forum held at Grha BNI, Jakarta, on Thursday (23/10/2025). This forum brings together the government, business actors, and investors to encourage the optimal and sustainable use of state-owned productive land.
The event was attended by 54 partners of the Land Bank Agency and 32 BNI developer partners from five developer associations: REI, APERSI, APERNAS, HIMPERA, and Indonesian Developers (PI). Also, in attendance were Acting Head of the Land Bank Agency, Hakiki Sudrajat, BNI of Institutional Banking Director Eko Setyo Nugroho, and BNI Network & Sales SEVP Sri Indira, and her staff.
Acting Head of the Land Bank Agency, Hakiki Sudrajat, stated that this forum is an important step in opening up access to collaborative land management that has high economic value and is also oriented towards sustainability.
"We want to ensure that land is not just an asset, but the foundation of the nation's prosperity. Through strategic partnerships like this, every inch of land managed by the state is expected to provide the greatest possible benefits to the Indonesian people," said Hakiki.
He added that the Land Bank Agency is committed to not only managing state assets but also driving investment that adds value to national economic development.
In the meantime, BNI Director of Institutional Banking Eko Setyo Nugroho affirmed BNI's full support for the organization of this forum as a concrete form of synergy between financial institutions and state asset management institutions.
"The Land Bank Agency's mandate aligns with BNI's vision as a state-owned bank that is always present to advance the national economy. Through this forum, we invite investors and developers to collaborate to realize strategic projects on secure and well-managed land assets," said Eko.
BNI, he continued, is ready to be a strategic partner for investors and developers by providing various financial solutions, including project funding, syndicated financing, and integrated cash management and transaction banking services. This collaboration is expected to create a more efficient and sustainable development value chain.
Eko added that the synergy between BNI and the Land Bank Agency is also part of BNI's support for the national housing program for low-income communities (MBR). The availability of legal and well-managed land will accelerate the provision of adequate housing and support equitable development.
"We wish to be part of the national development ecosystem that is not only oriented toward economic growth, but also creates a real social impact for the community," said Eko.
Concrete Support for Regional Land Utilization
In a series of forum activities, a Cooperation Agreement (PKS) was signed between the Land Bank Agency and the Kutuh Village Government for the utilization of 5,000 square meters of land in Bali which will be developed into a tourism support area.
In addition, a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was also signed between the Land Bank Agency and the North Maluku Provincial Government to optimize state land in the development of a sustainable coconut industry ecosystem.
North Maluku Governor Sherly Tonja welcomed the synergy and considered this cross-sector collaboration crucial for unlocking regional investment potential.
"This is a one-stop solution. The Land Bank Agency provides the land, the local government facilitates permits, and BNI is ready to support financing. With this kind of collaboration, idle land can be optimized for regional economic growth," said Sherly.
The synergy between BNI, the Land Bank Agency, and local governments is expected to expand access to investment financing, accelerate the utilization of strategic state assets, and strengthen the foundation of inclusive and sustainable economic development throughout Indonesia.
