BNI to Distribute IDR 13 Trillion in Dividend
PT Bank Negara Indonesia (Persero) Tbk, or BNI, will distribute a cash dividend of IDR 13.03 trillion. The decision resulted from the bank’s Annual General Meeting of Shareholders (AGMS) for the 2025 financial year. The dividend represents 65 percent of consolidated net profit attributed to the parent entity of IDR 20.04 trillion.
BNI Corporate Secretary Okki Rushartomo stated that the decision reflects the company’s commitment to providing optimal value to shareholders whilst safeguarding the company’s fundamentals through strengthening capital structure. “The strategic decisions agreed upon in this AGMS are part of efforts to maintain sustainable performance,” Okki said on Monday, 9 March 2026.
At the meeting, shareholders also approved the allocation of 35 percent of net profit, approximately IDR 7.01 trillion, as retained earnings. These funds will be used to support business expansion and strengthen Bank Negara Indonesia’s capital capacity amid evolving banking industry dynamics.
In addition to dividend distribution, the AGMS approved a share buyback plan with a maximum transaction value of IDR 905.48 billion, including transaction costs. Okki explained that the buyback is one of the company’s instruments to maintain stock price stability whilst providing flexibility in company capital management.
“This buyback decision demonstrates management’s confidence in the company’s long-term prospects whilst providing flexibility in strengthening capital,” Okki said.
The repurchased shares will be held as treasury stock, which can be transferred through resale on the Indonesia Stock Exchange or off-exchange. The shares can also be utilised for implementation of an Employee and/or Officer Share Ownership Programme.
In the same AGMS, shareholders approved changes to the company’s Articles of Association concerning the reclassification of BP BUMN’s Series B shares into Series A Dwiwarna shares. The reclassification involved 223,783,877 shares as part of adjustments to Law Number 16 of 2025 on the Fourth Amendment to Law Number 19 of 2003 concerning State-Owned Enterprises.
Okki stated that the adjustment represents the company’s compliance with the latest regulations. “Whilst ensuring optimal corporate governance,” he said.
The same AGMS also approved other agenda items, including the determination of remuneration for the Board of Directors and Board of Commissioners for the 2026 financial year, and received a report on the realisation of the use of funds from the offering of Sustainability Bond Phase I in 2025.
