Rosan Soal Alasan Penghapus Tantiem Komisaris BUMN: Banyak Laporan Keuangan Dipoles

JAKARTA - CEO of the Anagata Nusantara Resources Investment Management Agency (BPI Danantara) Rosan Roeslani opened his voice regarding the removal of bonuses for the board of commissioners of State-Owned Enterprises (BUMN).

Rosan said that one of the considerations was the practice of beautifying company financial reports supported by commissioners.

"What we saw before, the commissioners helped to encourage high profit but in what way? In terms of beautifying books. Beautifying books, in other words, the financial statements are distinguished so that they are more beautiful, sometimes they dare to do fraud," he said in the event of Berdikari Bersama Danantara Indonesia: Transformation of the Economy Towards a Golden Indonesia at Kempinski Grand Ballroom, Jakarta, Monday, October 20.

Rosan said that his party would not tolerate this practice in the future. He also admitted that he did not hesitate to take firm action if there were commissioners or directors who manipulated financial reports.

"I said, under Danantara, under my leadership, there are no more SOEs that do things to beautify books or look big profits, but dividends must borrow money first," he said.

On the other hand, Rosan said the removal of tantiem also reflects on the rules in several countries. He said that in other countries, commissioners or non-executive directors only receive basic salaries because their function is limited to supervision.

"Because if we look at it, in other worlds, normally, in other countries, there is no commissioner or the term non-executive director gets a bonus, it doesn't exist. Because why? Because they get a fixed SALary that is good. Because the function is supervision, "he explained.

Previously, the Anagata Nusantara Power Investment Management Agency (BPI Danantara) banned the board of commissioners of State-Owned Enterprises (BUMN) and its subsidiaries from obtaining bonuses from the company's performance. In addition, it is also not allowed to receive incentives.

The instruction was contained in an official letter numbered S-063/DI-BP/VII/2025 concerning the Provision of Tantiem, Incentives, and/or Income in Other Forms to the Board of Directors and Board of Commissioners of SOEs and BUMN Subsidiaries.

The letter was signed by Danantara Indonesia Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Rosan Roeslani dated July 30, 2025.

"Members of the BUMN board of commissioners and BUMN subsidiaries are not allowed to get bonuses, incentives in terms of performance incentives, special incentives, and/or long-term incentives and/or income in other forms associated with the Company's performance," reads the letter received by VOI, Friday, August 1.

In addition to regulating the provision of bonuses and incentives for the board of commissioners, Danantara also provides the latest rules for the board of directors of SOEs. Based on the letter, members of the SOE directors and their subsidiaries can still receive bonuses and incentives from the company's performance.

However, the provision of bonuses and incentives in the form of performance incentives, special incentives, and/or long-term incentives must be based on financial reports that are actually the result of the company's operations and reflect on sustainable business activities.

This incentive should not be calculated from non-operational activities. Such as asset revaluation gains, asset sales, or transactions for another time that are not repeated.

This instruction is carried out in order to implement good corporate governance standards that apply at the national and international levels to maintain the interests of SOEs and all stakeholders.
