The categories are foreign and joint venture bank, national private commercial bank, sharia bank and regional development bank as well as commercial bank or state-owned bank.
The conclusion was resulted from Banking Efficiency Award 2011 (BEA 2011) held by Bisnis Indonesia Intelligence Unit (BIIU).
“The 13 banks are of two state-owned banks, four commercial national foreign exchange banks, one people’s credit bank, two joint venture banks, three foreign banks and one commercial national foreign exchange sharia bank,” said BIIU researcher Anton Hermansyah during ‘Banking Efficiency Award 2011’ event at Nikko Hotel, Jakarta, today.
In the BEA 2011, there is an increase in the number of banks categorized as efficient. In the previous BEA, such banks only numbered seven.
In addition, BEA deemed that the efficient-categorized banks are now more distributed. This indicates the increase of efficiency in banking operation in almost all bank categories.
