To welcome Gatra’s 26th anniversary, Gatra Media Group invited Bank Sahabat Sampoerna (Bank Sampoerna) to become a speaker at the Gatra Anniversary Charity Workshop which was held virtually on December 10, 2012, entitled Resilient MSMEs in the Pandemic Period.
Bank Sampoerna, represented by Mr Rudy Mahasin as Director of Micro Business of Bank Sampoerna, took the theme of Capital for the development of MSMEs. Other resource persons at the event were Mr Nasrun as Assistant for Entrepreneurship Development at the Ministry of Cooperatives and UKM RI and Mr Edward Sutanto as at UMKM. Also, no less than 50 MSME players attended the event.
In his presentation, Mr Rudy Mahasin said that even with the limited number of branches, Bank Sampoerna could still reach MSME players throughout Indonesia. The way is by establishing a partnership with Savings and Loan Cooperative (KSP) Sahabat Mitra Sejati, which has 97 branches and 30 thousand members throughout Indonesia.
Besides, Pak Rudy continued, Bank Sampoerna also has a digital-based business model in financing MSMEs. Through the PDaja.com service, MSME players can apply for financing online anywhere and anytime.
“During this pandemic, we are optimistic and committed to continuing to channel loans to business people in Indonesia,” said Mr Rudy closing his presentation.
