"IoT technology can be used for real-time banking transaction services through ATM smarts and payment terminals," Hasan said in a webinar entitled "Utilization of the Internet of Things (IoT) in the Financial Services Industry", in Jakarta, Thursday.
Hasan said that IoT technology in the financial services industry is also useful for remote monitoring and maintenance, as well as improving product personalization and financial services according to consumer needs.
The risk management strategy, said Hasan, can also be improved through the use of the IoT ecosystem to identify potential fraud or illegal actions.
"The use of IoT in Indonesia contributes to increasing digital transactions and payments," Hasan said.
Based on data from Bank Indonesia, Hasan said, the value of digital banking transactions in July 2023 reached IDR 5,035.37 trillion. This figure grew 15.5 percent compared to July 2022 which received a transaction value of IDR 4,359.7 trillion.
