Jakarta –
President Director of PT Bank Central Asia Tbk (BBCA) Jahja Setiaatmadja said the extension of the Emergency PPKM resulted in correction of business activities, one of which was requests for credit from KKB (Motorized Vehicle Loans) and KPR (House Ownership Credit).
“I support that there is an Emergency PPKM, which is when we saw an increase in the number of COVID-19 sufferers, we can understand that. We cannot also say that it does not interfere with business, there is a deep correction. There are several examples that can be conveyed, from In terms of credit demand, it immediately declined,” Jahja said in a virtual press conference, Thursday (22/7/2021).
He said that before the emergency PPKM was implemented, credit applications developed quite positively. For example, KKB in the first to second quarters had a significant increase, reaching Rp 2 trillion.
“But at the time of emergency PPKM, we also have to admit that the Rp. 2 trillion figure will dramatically decrease. We estimate that in July this will be around Rp. 1 trillion to Rp. 1.2 trillion from the KKB,” he said.
Similar to mortgage applications, Jahja said, at the beginning of the year his party received 9,847 application submissions with a total credit platform of Rp 14.8 trillion. However, at the beginning of July, it fell drastically to 1,540 applications with a value of Rp 2.2 trillion.
This figure was obtained from the presale program held by BCA. In the last 20 days, the decline in mortgage applications has only collected 654 applications with a value of around IDR 1 trillion.
“So if we look at what last month we managed to reach Rp 14-15 trillion, at the most this month around Rp 3.5-4 trillion applications that come in. And this is a correction regarding situations like this, it makes it difficult for us to carry out a business campaign, ” he added.
“This is one concrete example. That this third quarter depends on the masses where we can control COVID-19 before a situation like this, maybe after September-October we hope to recover,” he said.
