Jakarta, 27 July 2018
 
PT Bank Maybank Indonesia Tbk (Maybank Indonesia or the Bank) today reported that its profit after tax and minority Interest (PATAMI) reached Rp932.7 billion for the six months ended 30 June 2018 compared with Rp998.5 billion in the previous corresponding period. The slight reduction in PATAMI was due primarily to lower fee based income and a slight compression in NIM.  Business was impacted by subdued economic conditions in the first semester of 2018.
 
The solid growth of Sharia business, better asset quality and significant improvement in subsidiaries have been the highlights of the Bank’s first six months performance. The Bank also managed its overhead costs effectively which saw a 3.2% reduction from Rp3.1 trillion to Rp 3.0 trillion for the first half of 2018 as a result of sustained strategic cost management across business lines and supports units. 
 
Sharia Banking continued to record strong performance in the first six months of 2018 with total assets increasing by 31.4% to Rp29.2 trillion, making up 17.0% of the Bank’s total assets.  Total Shariah financing rose 42.2% from Rp16.2 trillion as of June 2017 to Rp23.0 trillion as of June 2018, while its total deposits grew 38.8% from Rp13.5 trillion to Rp18.8 trillion.

CFS Retail loans increased by 1.6% to Rp43.2 trillion as of June 2018.
 
Asset quality improved significantly as reflected by lower NPL levels of 2.8% (gross) and 1.6% (net) as at 30 June 2018 compared with 3.6% (gross) and 2.4% (net) in the previous year. This reaffirms that the Bank’s continuous effort in managing asset quality through selective and responsible growth has shown a positive result.
 
The Bank’s current accounts grew strongly at 18.8% YoY due to the Bank’s focus on its transactional banking and cash management services. This has led to an improvement in the Bank’s CASA ratio to 41.9%.  However, total Customer deposits reduced to Rp113.7 trillion as of June 2018 compared to Rp119.8 trillion a year earlier in line with the Bank’s strategy in managing its cost of funding by reducing its dependence on high cost time deposits.

Net Interest Income (NII) registered a 2.5% growth to Rp3.9 trillion in June 2018 compared with Rp3.8 trillion in the previous corresponding period. Continued disciplined pricing in assets and liabilities enabled the Bank to mitigate pressures on net interest margin (NIM) which was marginally lower at 5.1% in June 2018 from 5.3% a year earlier. On a quarterly basis, NIM improved 28 basis points from 4.8% in the first quarter 2018.
 
The Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR) improved to 18.8% as of 30 June 2018 from 16.9% in the previous corresponding period with total capital reaching Rp24.7 trillion.
