Grand Launching Bankaltimtara, Step Together Harmony

Carrying the tagline "Joint Harmony Steps", grand launching changes in legal entity, Bankaltim name and logo into PT Bankaltimtara lively. The event took place at The Westin Hotel, Jl. Rasuna Said, Jakarta, Wednesday (15/11/2017). President Director of Bankaltimtara Zainuddin Fanani looks sumringah when visiting hundreds of guests who come.

The size of the ballroom room of The Westin Hotel does not make it sit still and it actually surrounds dozens of tables, where guests are sitting relaxed. "Thank you for coming," he said, greeting some people to the back of the table. How not happy, since the first time standing, 52 years ago in 1965, recorded 4 times Bankaltim replace the logo. The change this time is slightly different, because it is also done to change the business law. This was explained Abdul Haris Salihin, Chairman of Bankaltimtara Secretariat when met at Bankaltim Branch Office in Jakarta, Wednesday (15/11).

"Among the 115 commercial banks in Indonesia today, which are still in the form of local companies per October yesterday, only Bankaltim.As among 27 BPDs in Indonesia, which still form local companies are still we.So alhamdulillah, we are now able to carry out regulations the government becomes a legal entity of a limited liability company, "he said.

The reason for having to change to become a PT is that it is in accordance with government regulations. Law Number 23/2014, regulating BUMDs must be legal entities. The form of legal entity there are two, can Perusda or PT. "Perusda only belongs to one local government, but if the BUMD is owned by more than one local government, it must be a company, and is subject to the Law of PT Currently, Bankaltim, will not only have one local government but already owned by one local government, and also 14 districts / cities, if not changed, our name is against the law, "he said.

Related names, which now also take Kaltara as part of Bankaltim, also can not be separated from the shares owned both the Provincial Government of Kaltara and also districts / cities in Kaltara. So far, BPD is identical with the region. Territory occurred. One province is two provinces, but there is no new BPD bank. Why? Due to the new bank, it will cost big. For example now, to establish a new bank at least have cash Rp 3 trillion. There are some areas that bloom, now the focus of infrastructure. But they want his name also involved as a form of pride. Before split, Kaltara and Regency / town also include shareholders in Bankaltimtara.

The symbol of this logo change described by Fanani has not changed much. Only changes to the editing of the writing to Bankaltimtara, as well as the location of yellow blue symbols now posted on the posts.
