JAKARTA - PT Mekar Investama Teknologi (MEKAR), a financial technology (fintech) company from Indonesia that focuses on productive financing and sustainable finance, has again achieved international achievements by winning three prestigious awards at the FinanceAsia Awards 2026 and WRISE Volare Awards 2026. This achievement further strengthens MEKAR's position as one of the Indonesian fintech companies that have a real impact on the productive sector and the real economy.
"This award reflects MEKAR's commitment to redefine productive financing through the creation of real impact for society," said Pandu Aditya Kristy, Chief Executive Officer of PT Mekar Investama Teknologi, in a statement, Friday, June 26.
At the FinanceAsia Awards 2026, MEKAR won the Winner - Best Strategic Initiative - Nonbank Financial Institutions (Indonesia) award and received the title of Highly Commended - Biggest Sustainable Impact - Nonbank Financial Institutions (Indonesia). On the same day, MEKAR was also named the Best Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) Ecosystem Platform at the WRISE Volare Awards 2026, as a form of recognition for the company's innovative approach in building a sustainable financial ecosystem.
The award is proof of MEKAR's transformation from a digital financing company into an integrated ecosystem that connects financing with productive sectors, thereby creating measurable economic, social, and environmental impacts.
Unlike conventional financing models, MEKAR develops the MEKAR Ecosystem, which integrates various business lines in the fields of financing, agriculture, renewable energy, and the food sector to support Indonesia's sustainable real economic growth. Through this approach, financing is no longer just an access to capital, but also a catalyst for productivity improvement, business resilience, and sustainable development.
One of the main pillars of the ecosystem is Multi Micro Agriculture Financing (MMAF), an integrated financing model that combines productive financing with agronomic assistance, satellite-based land monitoring, market access, and partnerships in the agricultural value chain. By connecting capital directly to production activities, MMAF improves the quality of financing while helping farmers increase productivity, optimize land use, and strengthen the sustainability of their income.
Through productive financing, MEKAR continues to support the growth of various strategic sectors, including agriculture, MSMEs, and waste-to-energy initiatives, while expanding access to inclusive financing. More than 80 percent of the recipients of financing are MSMEs run by women, reflecting MEKAR's commitment to promoting financial inclusion and economic empowerment of the community. Through the waste-to-energy initiative, MEKAR also contributes to the development of a circular economy by processing agricultural waste and wood waste into renewable energy with added value.
"We believe that the future of the financial sector does not stop at financing. By connecting capital to the agricultural sector, waste-to-energy, and various other productive sectors through the MEKAR Ecosystem, we want to create a real impact for the community while supporting sustainable economic growth. This award is motivation for us to continue to expand the ecosystem and bring greater benefits to Indonesia," added Pandu Aditya Kristy.
In the future, MEKAR will continue to expand the implementation of MMAF, strengthen strategic partnerships, and utilize technology to accelerate the development of sustainable finance in Indonesia. Armed with an integrated ecosystem approach, MEKAR is optimistic that it can continue to be a growth partner for the community, business actors, and investors in encouraging a more inclusive and sustainable Indonesian economy.
