JAKARTA - DKI Jakarta Provincial Government has a financial inclusion program in urban areas. One of the programs is One Account One Student (KEJAR). BUMD Bank DKI noted, until now there have been 1.2 million student savings that are included in the program.

"Until November 2021, Bank DKI has 1.2 million Number of Student Saving Accounts consisting of 1.09 million KJP holders, 114,658 Simple Savings account holders, as well as 5,400 non-Simple Savings and non-KJP savings accounts. " said Bank DKI Corporate Secretary Herry Djufraini in his statement, Friday, December 17.

From this achievement, the DKI Provincial Government won the 2021 Regional Financial Access Acceleration Team (TPKAD) Award as the best province in innovation to develop financial inclusion in urban areas.

The award was handed over by the Chairman of the Board of Commissioners of the Financial Services Authority (OJK) Wimboh Santoso to the Governor of DKI Jakarta, Anies Baswedan.

Herry continued, as part of financial inclusion that has an impact on empowering MSMEs, the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government together contributes by providing access to capital for business actors who are members of the Jakpreneur program.

This access to capital, known as the e-Form micro loan, said Herry, provides convenience in submitting an application for Bank DKI microcredit for micro-enterprises online via a computer or smartphone.

"Through this program, MSME activists will gain access to improve skills and independence in developing business potential, in collaborative ways between the Provincial Government, the world of education, the business world, the community, institutions, or other parties," said Herry.

Furthermore, Bank DKI is also collaborating with the DKI Jakarta Province Goods and Services Procurement Service Agency (BPPBJ) to encourage the marketing of MSMEs in DKI Jakarta through the e-Order marketplace platform that can be accessed by the DKI Jakarta Regional Apparatus Work Unit and BUMD.

"We hope that a number of these services can provide benefits for all of us, especially for MSME players, as well as citizens who have easier access to capital and digital banking services to support Jakarta as a Collaborating City," he explained.
