Meanwhile, PT Pegadaian Director Damar Latri Setiawan emphasised that the achievements over this past year serve as a foundation for broader gold service development in the future. He stated that Pegadaian will continue to fulfil its government mandate in optimising the nation’s gold potential through development of comprehensive gold banking service products.
“Pegadaian is committed to continuing to fulfil the government mandate in optimising Indonesia’s gold potential. Currently, Pegadaian has a fairly comprehensive range of gold banking service products that we will continue to develop to provide wider benefits to society,” he explained.
On the same occasion, the Regional Leader of PT Pegadaian’s Regional Office XI Semarang, M Aries Aviani Nugroho, stated that the one-year milestone of the bullion ecosystem serves as a foundation for Pegadaian to continue introducing innovative gold investment services.
