Strengthening Economy: Pegadaian Celebrates One Year of Indonesia Bullion Ecosystem
Jakarta—The Coordinating Ministry for Economic Affairs held a commemoration of the one-year milestone for Pegadaian’s bullion business unit alongside the launch of the Indonesia Bullion Ecosystem Roadmap. The event, themed “Consolidating the First Year, Strengthening the Next Phase,” marked a momentum for strengthening gold’s position as a liquid financial instrument in Indonesia.
As a key stakeholder, PT Pegadaian successfully integrated its Gold Savings and Gold Instalment services into the Bullion Bank infrastructure (Gold Banking Service), which is safer, more modern, and nationally integrated.
Coordinating Minister for Economic Affairs Airlangga Hartarto extended special appreciation to PT Pegadaian and other bullion business operators for their success in establishing an integrated gold investment ecosystem. He noted that Pegadaian’s strategic steps have made tangible contributions to national economic stability.
“Pegadaian’s moves over the past year have demonstrated positive impacts on strengthening our economic structure. With mature infrastructure and accurate strategy, Pegadaian has managed to make gold a pillar of financial strength for the community,” Airlangga said in a written statement on Monday, 9 March 2026.
Meanwhile, PT Pegadaian Director Damar Latri Setiawan emphasised that this one-year achievement serves as a foundation for larger expansion.
“Pegadaian is committed to continuing to execute the government’s mandate in optimising Indonesia’s gold potential. Currently, Pegadaian has the most comprehensive Gold Banking Service products, and we will continue to strive for refinement and development that is hoped to have positive impacts for the community,” said Damar.
Airlangga also presented the Bullion Business Unit roadmap for the coming year. This roadmap is designed to integrate the entire gold economy supply chain in Indonesia, from upstream to downstream, to create maximum added value for the nation.
Damar explained that with government support, PT Pegadaian is optimistic that Indonesia’s bullion business will soon advance to the next level. This integration is expected not only to strengthen the national financial sector but also to serve as a pillar in supporting the creative economy and broader financial inclusion.
“Through stakeholder synergy, this bullion ecosystem is projected to become a new standard in managing the nation’s strategic assets, ensuring Indonesia has strong competitiveness in the global gold market,” he concluded.
