The collection of BNI’s third-party funds was followed by a decrease in cost of funds from 3 percent in December 2017 to 2.8 percent in December 2018. This came from an increase in the ratio of cheap funds from current account savings accounts (CASA), from 63.1 percent in December 2017 to 64.8 percent in December 2018. The improvement of this cheap-fund ratio was due to the growth of giro accounts at 18.2 percent yoy and savings at 13 percent yoy, which was higher than BNI’s deposit increase, which was recorded at 6.7 percent yoy.

 

The success of the collection of third-party funds was due to strategic steps made by BNI throughout 2018, by improving ties with state-owned enterprises (SOE) and the government, providing competitive products and services and developing digital banking services. The success in these efforts could be seen with the addition of 11.2 million accounts, from 32.8 million accounts in December 2017 to 44 million in December 2018.
