11 Bank di Indonesia Terapkan Prinsip Keuangan Berkelanjutan untuk Capai Net Zero pada 2030

"11 Banks in Indonesia Implement Sustainable Financial Principles to Achieve Net Zero by 2030"

Dream - The principle of sustainable finance has become a major concern in various sectors, including the banking industry.

11 Banks in Indonesia Implement Sustainable Finance Principles to Achieve Net Zero by 2030

This is driven by the increasing awareness of the impact of climate change, social responsibility, and good governance, namely Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG). Banks, as institutions that play a major role in the economy, have a responsibility to ensure that their operations and investments support sustainable development.

"For that reason, World Wide Fund (WWF) Indonesia is relaunching the Sustainable Banking Assessment (Susba) 2023 Report. Susba is a banking tool to integrate Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) aspects into their business activities. 'There are 39 banks in ASEAN participating in this assessment, and 10 major banks in Korea and Japan. So, there are 49 banks from eight countries,' said Dewi Lestari Yani Rizki, Chief Conservation Officer of WWF Indonesia during the Media Briefing on Wednesday, June 19, 2024."

Through the Susba 2023 report, it is recorded that 41% of the 11 banks in Indonesia are claimed to have implemented the Three Lines of Defense. Among the 11 banks in Indonesia, there are PT Bank Rakyat Indonesia (Persero) or BBRI, PT Bank Negara Indonesia (Persero), PT Bank Mandiri Tbk, and PT Bank Central Asia Tbk or BCA. Next, there are PT Bank BTPN Tbk, PT Bank Danamon Indonesia Tbk, PT Bank Pan Indonesia Tbk, PT Bank Muamalat Indonesia Tbk, PT Bank Pembangunan Daerah Jawa Barat dan Banten, PT Bank Permata Tbk, PT Bank Syariah Indonesia Tbk, PT Bank BTPN Tbk, and PT Bank Danamon Indonesia Tbk.

"In an effort to implement the concept of sustainable finance, the three lines of defense have important and critical roles."

"When we perform ESG risk management, making important business decisions or decision-making processes, it is the three lines of defense,"
clear Sustainable Finance Program Lead WWF Indonesia, Rizkia Sari Yudawinata, at the same time.

Rizkia said, three lines of defense are those who are in the front line (first liner) such as relation manager, risk assessment, and those who monitor the implementation of policies and implementation, namely internal auditors. In addition, Rizkia also explained the two indications related to the disclosure of 41% of the three lines of defense by 11 Banks in Indonesia.

First,

"Like a journey, the percentage, if compared to early adopter banks whose sustainable finance journey has been around for over 20 years. 'If we look at it from two perspectives, 41% progress for Indonesia is one of the good progress compared to the previous year,' he said."

               

Based on these indications, it can be seen that understanding the implementation of sustainability banking takes time. This raises further indications, namely when compared between implementation and room improvement for banking with ambitious targets of net zero emissions. The banking sector needs to improve its performance from the three lines of defense aspect to make its implementation effective.

"This is just an indication, but it becomes an insight or encouragement from two sides. One is the achievement side of the existing progress with ambitious target achievements. Meanwhile, on the other side, it is the progress that we see increasing,"
clear Rizkia.
