JAKARTA - The Financial Services Authority (OJK) is said to have just issued a new regulation related to the maximum limit on lending by Rural Banks Credit (BPR) and Sharia People's Financing Banks (BPRS). This provision is contained in the Regulation of the Financial Services Authority (POJK) Number 23 of 2022.

OJK Director of Public Relations Darmansyah said this policy aims to maintain stability and encourage increased contributions from BPR and BPRS in economic growth.

"Through POJK 23/2022, BPPR and BPRS can increase the credit portfolio or real sector financing while still prioritizing the principle of prudence and risk management," he said in a written statement on Friday, December 9.

According to Darmansyah, the authorities' new policy has taken into account the principle-based approach, and harmonization with the provisions of the Maximum Limit on Granting Loans (BMPK) and the Maximum Limit on Fund Disbursement (BMPD) which applies to commercial banks.

"OJK also believes that this rule is in accordance with what applies to BPR and BPRS, such as the provisions for assessing the health level issued this year, and reporting online through the OJK Reporting Application (APOLO) by BPR and BPRS," he said.

Darmansyah added that POJK 23/2022 also revoked POJK No. 49/POJK.03/2017 concerning Maximum Limits for Providing Rural Banks and PBI Credit No.13/5/PBI/2011 concerning Maximum Limits on the Distribution of Sharia Banks.

"The improvement in the BMPK BPR and BMPD BPRS provisions is expected to encourage agile, adaptive, contributive, and resilient business continuity in providing access to micro and small business finances (UMK) as well as the community within the scope of the region or region," he stressed.

The following are the points of POJK 23/2022.
