        "content": "<p>PT Bank Rakyat Indonesia (Persero) Tbk (BBRI) has announced plans for\na second-stage share buyback worth up to Rp1 trillion. The buyback is\nscheduled to run from 22 October 2026 to 21 January 2027.<\/p>\n<p>BRI Corporate Secretary Dhanny said the corporate action forms part\nof BBRI\u2019s strategy to optimise shareholder value while taking account of\nits financial condition and applicable regulations.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis share buyback reflects BRI\u2019s confidence in its business\nfundamentals and long-term growth prospects. The company continues to\nprioritise capital adequacy, prudential principles and sound corporate\ngovernance in accordance with applicable regulations,\u201d Dhanny said in an\nofficial statement, quoted on Wednesday (28 October 2026).<\/p>\n<p>Dhanny added that the decision also takes into consideration global\nmarket dynamics, including economic uncertainty, geopolitical tensions,\ncommodity price movements and capital flows that affect volatility in\nIndonesia\u2019s financial markets.<\/p>\n<p>At its annual general meeting on 24 March 2025, shareholders approved\na share buyback of up to Rp3 trillion, which could be conducted on or\noff the stock exchange, in stages or in a single transaction, in\naccordance with applicable regulations.<\/p>\n<p>In 2026, BRI resumed the programme amid significant market\nfluctuations. According to a disclosure dated 12 June 2026, the bank\nallocated up to Rp500 billion for the first-stage buyback, which ran\nfrom 12 June to 11 September 2026.<\/p>\n<p>For the second quarter of 2026, BRI recorded net profit of Rp31.2\ntrillion. Total assets grew 11.7% year on year to Rp2,352 trillion,\nthird-party funds rose 6.7% to Rp1,581 trillion, and loans and financing\nincreased 16.2% to Rp1,646 trillion.<\/p>\n<p>The performance was also supported by strong capital and liquidity\npositions. BRI\u2019s Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR) stood at 21.5%, while its\nLoan to Deposit Ratio (LDR) was 90.8%. These positions provide\nsufficient headroom for the bank to continue its intermediation role and\nmaintain healthy, sustainable business growth.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith strong fundamentals and capital, we are confident BRI has room\nto continue growing and deliver optimal returns to shareholders over the\nlong term,\u201d Dhanny said.<\/p>",
