YOGYAKARTA Profile of PT Bank Tabungan Negara (Persero) Tbk is already known as one of the pioneers of the banking industry and Indonesian financial services. The forerunner of the State Savings Bank (BTN) even existed before Indonesia's independence.
The history of BTN began in 1897. The forerunner of BTN is a banking company founded by the Dutch East Indies Government called Postspaarbank located in Batavia (Jakarta). The purpose of establishing Postspaarbank is to introduce the public about banking institutions, grow the habit of saving, and as an effort to collect savings in the form of savings.
Postspaarbank is indeed quite successful in carrying out its mission. Unfortunately, the bank had to be frozen along with Japan's arrival in Indonesia. The Japanese government later acquired the 1942 Postspaarbank.
Instead, Japan founded Tyokin Kyoku to shift the role of Postspaarbank. The goal brought by Tyokin Kyoku is similar to Postspaarbank, unfortunately they suffered a failure for Indonesians to feel forced.
Japan's arrival in Indonesia did not last long. In the year of Indonesian Independence, Tyokin Kyoku was taken over by the Government of Indonesia and replaced it with the name of the Post Savings Office (KTP). KTP also has a big role in exchanging Japanese money with Indonesia's first currency Oeang Republik Indonesia (ORI).
Not yet successful, the Post Savings Office affected by Military Aggression II that occurred in 1948. Many jobs have not been completed by the bank. One year later, the Indonesian Government made a name difference from the Post Savings Office to the Bank Savings Post of the Republic of Indonesia.
Not only through a number of name changes, the Indonesian government at that time also appointed Darmosoetanto as Director of the Post Savings Bank. The appointment made Darmosoetanto the first native to be involved in banking.
The name change from the Post Savings Bank to the State Savings Bank (BTN) is carried out in accordance with Government Regulation in Lieu of Law No. 4 of 1963 (State Flow No. 62 of 1963 dated June 22, 1963).
