JAKARTA - PT Bank Syariah Indonesia Tbk is targeted to enter the top 10 list of Islamic banks in the global arena. This target is supported by the number of assets owned, which is IDR 277 trillion as of June 2022. Meanwhile, the company's equity reached IDR 26 trillion in the same period.

Still, in the same period, BSI recorded a net profit of IDR 2.13 trillion. This profit was up 41.31 percent compared to the same period the previous year.

Secretary of the Ministry of SOEs, Susyanto, said that currently BSI is the largest Islamic bank in the country. For this achievement, Susyanto claims that BSI is the largest Islamic bank in Indonesia.

He said, by becoming the largest sharia-based bank, BSI has an important role in the domestic sharia economy. BSI is a combination of three Islamic banks owned by state-owned enterprises (BUMN). The state-owned banks in question are BRI Syariah, Mandiri Syariah Bank, and BNI Syariah.

"This is the largest Islamic bank in Indonesia. By becoming the largest bank in Indonesia, BSI will have an important role in the development of the Islamic economy in Indonesia", he said at the Commission VI Working Meeting of the Indonesian House of Representatives with the Ministry of SOEs, Tuesday, September 20.

Not only that, according to Susyanto, with the capital owned, it can encourage BSI to enter the list of the top 10 Islamic banks in the world. He said this is a target that will be pursued in the next few years.

"With BSI's vision of becoming the world's 10 largest banks, in the next few years, where there is an Indonesian name in BSI, of course, there is a great responsibility in increasing Indonesia's existence in the global Islamic market", he said.
