SMBC Indonesia Continues to Empower MSMEs to Scale Up through Karya Kreatif Indonesia 2026


Jakarta, 23 August 2026 — PT Bank SMBC Indonesia Tbk. (SMBC Indonesia) has once again demonstrated its commitment to helping micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) sustainably grow and penetrate broader markets.

 

This tangible effort was showcased through SMBC Indonesia’s participation at Karya Kreatif Indonesia 2026, which was organized by Bank Indonesia at the Jakarta Convention Center on August 20-23, 2026.

 

For SMBC Indonesia, supporting MSMEs goes beyond mere financing—it involves acting as a business partner that accompanies entrepreneurs on their journey toward sustainable success and independence.

 

"For SMBC Indonesia, business matching is not just about financing; it is about becoming a business partner to owners so they can achieve sustainable business operations, fostering mutual growth between the bank and the entrepreneurs," said Dini Herdini, Compliance Director of SMBC Indonesia, on the sidelines of the opening day of the event on August 20, 2026.

 

Dini added that the annual KKI event enables the bank to engage directly with MSME players and gain a better understanding of their needs.

 

SMBC Indonesia Director Emilya Tjahjadi also attended the event on the second day to participate in a symbolic financing partnership signing ceremony with the bank's selected customer. This capital injection is expected to help the customer enhance their market competitiveness and create job opportunities.

 

In addition to capital support, SMBC Indonesia offers TOUCHBIZ, a digital solution specifically designed to facilitate business growth for entrepreneurs. In recognition of its contributions and consistent support for local businesses, SMBC Indonesia was presented with an award plaque by Bank Indonesia. This award serves as proof that SMBC Indonesia is a trusted financial partner for the advancement of MSMEs in Indonesia.
