The profit rise was also generated by the decrease in BCA’s reserves ratio. “As of September 2016, the reserves ratio dropped from 285.4% to 201.0%”, said President Director of BCA Jahja Setiaatmadja on Wednesday (26/10).

However, as of September 2016, total credit allocation of BCA only grew by 5.8% to Rp 386.24 trillion. The increase in credit allocation was mainly generated by consumer credit rise that grew by 8.1% and a 5.7% increase in corporate credit to Rp 133.3 trillion.
