The SP7 also covered areas of improvements through operations optimisation, advancing digital SME, ‘One Maybank go to Market’ initiative and Shariah Wealth offerings, aiming to differentiate and grow through expansion of select key levers.

The implemented strategy has started to deliver results as reflected in the first quarter of 2024 report whereby Global Banking loans grew 18.2% to Rp46.42 trillion from Rp39.29 trillion backed by LLC loans, which grew 5.3% to Rp9.82 trillion from Rp9.33 trillion and Financial Institution Group (FIG) loans grew 86.8% to Rp16.50 trillion from Rp8.83 trillion.

The retail and non-retail loans managed under Community Financial Services (CFS) also grew 11.7% to Rp75.86 trillion from Rp67.93 trillion in the same period last year.

Small Medium Enterprises customer loans portfolio expanded followed by an increase in number of borrowers across the regions in Indonesia. The CFS Non-retail loans grew 14.6% to Rp31.90 trillion from Rp27.83 trillion, supported by the commercial loan segment of Business Banking which grew 19.8% to Rp12.03 trillion from Rp10.04 trillion, followed by growth in the Bank's RSME which grew 12.9% to Rp14.37 trillion from Rp12.72 trillion and SME+ loans segment which grew 8.9% to Rp5.49 trillion from Rp5.05 trillion.

CFS Retail loans booked an increase of 9.6%, owing to continued growth in Mortgage loan by 1.4%, followed by credit cards and personal loans, which grew 20.5%. Pursuant to the Bank’s effort in driving ‘super growth’ in the retail auto loans, the Subsidiaries’ auto loans grew 14.6% to Rp23.54 trillion from Rp20.54 trillion (two-wheeled financing up by 13.7% and four wheeled financing up by 14.9%).

The growth in total loans also contributed to an increase in the Bank’s total consolidated assets of 10.0% to Rp177.65 trillion from Rp161.54 trillion in the same period last year.

Meanwhile, total deposits were at Rp117.22 trillion in March 2024, increased by 13.1% from Rp103.61 trillion in the same period last year. CASA increased by 8.3% with Current Accounts and Savings Accounts grew by 5.9% and 11.9% respectively. Time Deposits (TD) also rose 18.4% following the trend from the previous quarter. The Bank’s CASA Ratio remained healthy at 49.7% as of March 2024.

The Bank’s asset quality remained sound. Non-Performing Loan (NPL) ratio improved to 2.7% (gross) and 1.7% (net) in March 2024 from 3.4% (gross) and 2.3% (net) in March 2023. The NPL ratio in March 2024 also improved from 2.9% (gross) and 1.9% (net) December 2023.

Fee-based income was registered lower at Rp370 billion in the first quarter of 2024 from Rp574 billion due to weakening Rupiah, impacted by changing trends and projection in global interest rates movement and geopolitical influence as well as lower asset recovery.

On overhead expenses, the Bank continued to make significant investment to enhance IT capability and capacity, including several strategic areas in line with M25+ initiatives in the first quarter of 2024 to drive digitalisation and technology modernisation. As a result, the Bank overhead cost grew 4.2% Y-o-Y.

The Bank recorded a Pre-provisioning Operating Profit (PPOP) of Rp609 billion. However, the Bank took a proactive approach to set aside provision expenses at Rp873 billion for specific corporate accounts which may potentially face asset quality deterioration.

The Shariah Business Unit’s financing growth contributed 29.3% to the Bank’s standalone financing.

The awards serve as testament of Maybank Indonesia’s continuous efforts in delivering hyper-personalised digital banking experience.

 

Acting President Director Maybank Indonesia, Steffano Ridwan said that in the first quarter of 2024, the Bank’s profitability was impacted by high provisioning as a result of being proactive for specific corporate accounts. This move is proactive and isolated in nature.

“On the positive front we were able to book loan growth of 14.0% across all segments in the first quarter 2024, and the momentum is positive.”

“The implementation of our ‘super growth’ strategy has demonstrated promising results, we will fortify our efforts along with the M25+ strategy ensuring sustainable growth moving forward.
