Creditinfo supports PEFINDO Biro Kredit to become the largest Credit Bureau in Indonesia
Having obtained a principal license last August, the Indonesian biggest and oldest credit rating agency, PT Pemeringkat Efek Indonesia (PEFINDO), recently announced their expectation to obtain an operating permit for its subsidiary, PT PEFINDO Biro Kredit (PEFINDO Credit Bureau), to operate as a Credit Information Management Bureau (LPIP). The issuing government authority, Financial Services Authority (OJK), will hopefully issue the licence in the second half of 2015.
After an extensive selection process, PEFINDO Biro Kredit has signed an exclusive long term partnership contract with Creditinfo earlier this month to provide a credit bureau solution and support of their Credit Bureau operations. Creditinfo will provide PEFINDO Biro Kredit with its modular credit bureau solution, CBS5. PEFINDO’s President Director, Ronald T Andi Kasim explained, “The company (PEFINDO Credit Bureau) will provide more comprehensive credit-risk profiles of debtors and credit-rating information about individuals to banks and other financing bodies, utilising the credit-rating information system provided and practiced by Creditinfo. We are currently preparing the company’s IT system and human resources, which are expected to be completed in the first quarter of next year. Afterwards, we expect to obtain the permit in the second quarter of next year, so that operations can be started in the third quarter.” Continue reading »
