Dividend Hunters Gather! BNI Cum Date Today
Jakarta — The dividend distribution phase for PT Bank Negara Indonesia (Persero) Tbk (BNI) will enter the cum dividend period this week before the Nyepi and Lebaran 2026 holidays. For the regular market and negotiation market, cum dividend is scheduled for today, Tuesday (17 March 2026).
The cum dividend in the cash market will run on 26 March 2026, which also serves as the recording date, determining which parties are entitled to receive dividends. This schedule is an important marker for investors wishing to ensure their names are registered as dividend recipients for the 2025 financial year.
Accordingly, shareholders recorded on the recording date will begin receiving dividend payments on 7 April 2026. This momentum feels like a bonus (“THR”) for investors, ahead of the extended Nyepi and Lebaran holiday periods.
BNI Corporate Secretary Okki Rushartomo stated that the dividend distribution decision represents the company’s commitment to continuously providing optimal returns to shareholders whilst maintaining the company’s financial health through strengthened capital structure.
“This decision is part of the company’s efforts to add value for shareholders, whilst ensuring the company’s performance can continue to grow sustainably,” said Okki in a written statement.
The dividend distribution was previously approved during the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders for the 2025 Financial Year held on Monday, 9 March 2026. This forum serves as an important annual agenda for the company to determine various strategic decisions.
In the meeting, BNI set the cash dividend distribution at Rp13.03 trillion, equivalent to 65% of consolidated net profit that can be distributed to the parent entity’s owners of Rp20.04 trillion.
From the total dividend, each shareholder will receive Rp349.41 per share, reflecting the company’s commitment to delivering attractive returns to investors.
In addition to dividend distribution, shareholders also approved the use of 35% of net profit, or approximately Rp7.01 trillion, as retained earnings. This policy forms part of the company’s strategy to maintain healthy expansion capacity.
The retained earnings will be utilised to support business development and strengthen BNI’s capital capacity amid the evolving dynamics of the banking industry. This step is expected to maintain the company’s solid performance whilst opening opportunities for sustainable growth in the future.
“Going forward, BNI will continue to strengthen performance sustainably whilst maintaining a solid capital structure to be able to create more optimal value for shareholders,” concluded Okki.
