Turnover Hits Rp 7.02 Trillion in 2025, BI Continues to Accelerate MSME Development
The Head of the Communication Department of Bank Indonesia (BI), Ramdan Denny Prakoso, stated that alongside efforts to maintain stability, Bank Indonesia is also driving sustainable economic growth within the national economy.
He noted that MSMEs (Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises) serve as one of the pillars of national economic growth and employment absorption. Consequently, BI continues to strengthen MSME development to enhance their competitiveness.
“In 2025, the turnover of Bank Indonesia’s mentored MSMEs reached Rp 7.02 trillion, representing a growth of 23.1 per cent (yoy), with the highest growth seen in Export MSMEs (21 per cent) and Digital MSMEs (25 per cent),” Ramdan said in a statement on Wednesday, 8 July 2026.
He expects this achievement to continue growing alongside the implementation of the Integrated MSME Entrepreneurship Transformation Programme. This year, the programme targets the creation of 400 internationally certified baristas, 50 new textile innovations, 200 pesantren-based bottled water producers, and 10 pesantren managing integrated agriculture.
Ramdan emphasised that these various programmes are directed towards strengthening the national entrepreneurship ecosystem, increasing the added value and competitiveness of MSMEs, expanding job opportunities, and reinforcing the contribution of MSMEs to inclusive and sustainable economic growth.
Furthermore, BI is accelerating credit distribution by involving the government, relevant authorities, the banking sector, and business actors. These efforts are supported by the Macroprudential Liquidity Incentive Policy (KLM), which helps strengthen the banking intermediation function and financing for the business world.
Ramdan explained that this is reflected in the fact that bank credit was able to grow by 11.51 per cent (yoy) in May 2026, an increase compared to 9.69 per cent (yoy) at the end of 2025.
“The increase in financing for the productive sector will further strengthen economic activity and growth,” said Ramdan.
“Bank Indonesia will continue to optimise its policy mix and strengthen synergy with the Government and various stakeholders to maintain stability, strengthen sustainable economic growth, and support job creation,” he added.
