The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) said PT Taspen (Persero) placed a number of pension funds to securities companies for profit. However, the process is suspected of violating the rules, causing state losses.
"Taspen collects money from retirees. Then the money will, in other words, be turned back into a business so that it will increase in profit and later the profits will also be divided among retirees (as customers, ed)," said KPK Investigation Director Asep Guntur to reporters quoted on Monday, September 23.
Asep agrees that the process carried out by PT Taspen is common in the banking business. "Okay, if the company's (related, red) laws are limited, if the procedure has been followed and so on (if it fails, ed) yes, it becomes a business risk," he said.
"But when the placement of a number of funds is in the context of business but does not follow the existing rules, yes, of course it becomes an unlawful act so that when a loss occurs it becomes a loss to state finances," continued Asep.
As previously reported, the KPK decided to increase the status of handling allegations of corruption at PT Taspen (Persero) from an investigation to an investigation. Antonius NS Kosasih who is the main director is inactive is a suspect in this case.
