PT Bank Rakyat Indonesia (Persero) Tbk or BRI has agreed to distribute cash dividends at the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders (AGMS) for 2026, held on Friday (10/4/2026) at Menara BRILiaN in Jakarta. This decision is part of the company’s commitment to providing added value to the state and all shareholders.

In the AGMS, the company set the total cash dividend distribution for the 2025 fiscal year at IDR 52.1 trillion or IDR 346.00 per share. This figure includes the interim dividend of IDR 137 per share or IDR 20.6 trillion, which was paid on 15 January 2026.

BRI President Director Hery Gunardi stated that the final dividend distribution decision is a tangible manifestation of the company’s commitment to providing optimal returns to shareholders, supported by solid financial performance and well-managed risk.

“The dividend distribution is based on the company’s consistently positive performance, bolstered by strengthening in the UMKM segment as BRI’s core business, as well as accelerating digital transformation that continues to expand service reach and improve operational efficiency,” said Hery.

The dividend distribution refers to the company’s consolidated net profit for the fiscal year ending 31 December 2025, amounting to IDR 57.132 trillion, with total profit attributable to owners of the parent entity at IDR 56.65 trillion. The determination of this final dividend also considers applicable legal regulations and the company’s articles of association.

Hery added that this dividend distribution not only reflects the company’s solid performance but also demonstrates BRI’s strong and sustainable business fundamentals. “As part of Danantara, this dividend distribution is also a tangible contribution from BRI in supporting national development, in line with the company’s role in strengthening UMKM financing and driving an inclusive finance-based economic transformation,” he said.

The AGMS was attended by BRI Chairman of the Board of Commissioners Kartika Wirjoatmodjo, Vice Chairman of the Board of Commissioners Parman Nataatmadja, President Director Hery Gunardi, Vice President Director Viviana Dyah Ayu Retno Kumalasari, as well as members of the Board of Commissioners and Board of Directors.
