PT Bank Muamalat Indonesia Tbk seeks to expand its business penetration in Aceh after being appointed as a salary distribution bank for ASN by the Directorate General of Treasury of the Ministry of Finance, considering that the region has great Islamic economic potential.

"As the first bank of pure sharia, we want to contribute to advancing Islamic finance in Aceh starting from exploring business to government agencies," said Bank Muamalat President Director Indra Falatehan in Jakarta, quoted from Antara, Thursday, March 14.

According to him, there is potential for business development in the region for Bank Muamalat as one of the Islamic banks in Indonesia and a partner bank managing the government's virtual account.

He said that his party was coordinating with the Regional Office of the Directorate General of Treasury of Aceh Province to conduct socialization related to Bank Muamalat's role as a salary distribution bank to various government work units in the province.

Some of the benefits offered by Bank Muamalat to ASN who work for an agency that opens a salary distribution account at the bank are free monthly account service fees, no initial deposit is required when opening an account, and no minimum balance.

Customers can also get a multipurpose iB financing ceiling of up to IDR 500 million for a period of 10 years and a housing loan financing tenor (KPR) of up to 25 years.

In addition to offering varied sharia banking products, the three branch offices of Bank Muamalat in Aceh Province, namely in Banda Aceh, Langsa and Lhokseumawe, can also serve registration and payment of Hajj for people who want to worship in the Holy Land.
