PT Bank Tabungan Negara (Persero) Tbk (BTN) is aggressively strengthening its Good Corporate Governance (GCG) framework to ensure long-term business sustainability and bolster stakeholder trust. This strategic commitment was recently underscored during the bank's "SOE Bank Governance Legal Clinic" forum in Jakarta, an initiative meticulously designed to navigate emerging regulatory landscapes and mitigate legal risks across all corporate operations.
The high-profile forum drew key legal and corporate leaders, including Irene Putrie, the Director of Legal Opinion at the Attorney General’s Office (JAMDATUN); Pietra Machreza Paloh, Independent Commissioner of BTN; and Eko Waluyo, BTN’s Director of Human Capital & Compliance. Through this close institutional collaboration with the Indonesian Attorney General’s Office, the lender aims to systematically enhance its management's mastery of dynamic regulatory changes, most notably the implementation of the newly enacted SOE Law No. 16 of 2025. This proactive alignment ensures that all operational policies and business workflows strictly comply with statutory provisions while fostering greater corporate transparency.
Beyond adapting to new legislation, BTN is deeply internalizing the Business Judgement Rules (BJR) as a foundational framework for strategic asset management and executive decision-making. Embracing BJR principles is considered vital to providing clear legal safeguards for corporate leaders, empowering them to make high-stakes, professional business choices. This standard guarantees that every corporate action is executed in absolute good faith, with meticulous prudence, and backed by highly accountable, rational justifications.
This ongoing partnership with the Attorney General's Office forms a core pillar of BTN’s legal protection roadmap and comprehensive risk management strategy. By establishing these robust preemptive measures, BTN not only shields itself from operational deviations amid an increasingly complex financial landscape but also firmly positions itself to secure healthy, compliant, and sustainable growth aligned with the nation's highest standards of corporate governance.
