"The majority of the new financing value of 58.3 percent comes from the refinancing of four-wheeled vehicles which are indeed the core business of the Company," he said in a written statement, Wednesday, October 25.

He continued, this value growth contributed to an increase in the total value of net financing from IDR 17.5 trillion to IDR 20.5 trillion, an increase of 16.9 percent yoy, which overall contributed to an increase in asset value from IDR 20.0 trillion to IDR 24.2 trillion, an increase of 20.8 percent compared to the previous year.

"We are quite agile in dealing with the dynamics of the development of external conditions and also of course internal companies. With operational disruption at the end of the first semester yesterday, we tightened the distribution of new and well-behaved financing in all lines, for example maintaining the quality of financing to reach the optimal level and improve digital security infrastructure," explained Sudjono.
