JAKARTA - Bank Indonesia (BI) noted that new credit distribution by banks in October 2023 indicated growth, reflected in the weighted net balance (WBT) of 82.1 percent.

Executive Director of the BI Communications Department, Erwin Haryono, said that the main factors influencing new credit distribution include demand for financing from customers, the level of business competition from other banks, as well as the prospects for future monetary and economic conditions.

"Corporate financing in October 2023 is indicated to grow compared to the previous month. This is reflected in the Weighted Net Balance (WBT) of corporate financing of 15.7 percent," he explained in his official statement, Monday, November 20.

The sources of corporate financing mainly come from own funds, followed by financing from domestic banks and the use of withdrawal allowance facilities.
