PT Bank Rakyat Indonesia (Persero) Tbk (BBRI) encourages MSME players to improve their business branding through the activity of providing business identification numbers (NIB) for Micro and Small Business Actors (UMK) with the Ministry of Investment/Investment Coordinating Board (BKPM). SOE Minister Erick Thohir said, MSMEs need assistance and support to be able to advance to class. MSME and ultra-micro actors are said to have a strong multiplier effect. "As the President said, the basis of Indonesia's economic growth is the people's economy.
MSMEs must be ensured that they can go global. We make MSMEs a sustainable supply chain," he said in a written statement, Tuesday (12/7/2022). It is known that the NIB award ceremony was held in Solo (6/7), and was attended by SOE Minister Erick Thohir, Investment Minister Bahlil Lahadalia, BRI Wholesale & Institutional Business Director Agus Noorsanto, and Central Java Governor Ganjar Pranowo. A total of 125 BRI customers took part in the NIB award ceremony which was also a socialization of business license registration through the Online Single Submission (OSS) System.
NIB applies as legality, Indonesian National Standard (SNI), and Halal Product Guarantee Certificate (SJPH) for business actors whose products or services are required to be SNI and halal. The OSS is an electronically integrated business licensing system that is managed and organized by the Ministry of Investment/BKPM. The implementation of Risk-Based Business Licensing through the OSS System is the implementation of Law Number 11 of 2020 concerning Job Creation. BRI's Wholesale & Institutional Business Director Agus Noorsanto said BRI will continue to be present to assist MSME players to advance to class.
"The company is open to collaborating with various parties to support MSMEs in developing and increasing their business capacity," he said. For information, there are currently more than 50,000 SMEs registered with the NIB. NIB outreach activities have also been carried out in two cities, namely Bandung and Surabaya. Participants who attended the two cities reached as many as 2,000 business people.
