JAKARTA - Ahead of Eid al-Fitr, PT Bank Central Asia Tbk (BBCA) ensures the availability of cash amounting to IDR 69.48 trillion to meet the needs of the community.
This number is up 10 percent from the nominal prepared at the moment of the holy month and Eid last year.
President Director of PT Bank Central Asia Tbk Jahja Setiaatmadja said that mobility restrictions this year have become looser, so that economic activities and public consumption ahead of Eid al-Fitr are expected to be greater than last year.
"In line with this, BCA anticipates an increase in transactions by preparing a number of services that can make it easier for customers," he told the media, Tuesday, April 4.
In addition to the availability of cash, he continued, BCA also ensures that customer needs to exchange money are met.
