2 Presentation Plan A Brief Note on The Role of Financial Sector Financial Supervisory Regime and the Performance of Indonesian Financial Sector Challenges in Financial Supervisory Regime Indonesia Future Financial Supervisory Regime in Indonesia

3 The Role of Financial Sector A financial sector in general performs some of the following functions: Roles Intermediation Payment System Wealth Management Policy transmission Price discovery Allocation of resources Descriptions Channel funds from surplus to deficit units Carry out payment and fund settlements Venue for leveraging assetsand managing wealth Serving as a conduit for central bank policy in attempting to achieve its monetary policy target Helpdetermine the price of an asset in the marketplace through the interactions of buyers and sellers Help apportion productive assets among different uses due to limited supply and scarcity of resources

4 How to Make the Role of Financial Sector Works?...depends on Financial Supervisory Regime... There are at least 3 aspects need to be considered: Objectives of financial supervisory functions Trade off between Efficiency vs. Stability Support for equitable developments Regulatory regime Prudential vs market conduct regulations Structure of financial supervisory functions Integrated vs. two or three peaks models macro vc micro prudential responsibilities

5 Structure of Indonesian Financial System In Billion IDR (USD = Rp10,000) Source: Bank Indonesia, Bapepam-LK Source: Bank Indonesia, Bapepam-LK A Bank-based economy banks are leading financial institutions Capital market is growing but remain undersized Prevalent deposit to lending model -banks are heavily dependent on short term deposits(around 93% of deposits have maturity of less than 3 months) Banks confront high intermediary costs Thus, banking failure can have significant magnitude of systemic risk

6 A Skeleton of Financial Supervisory Regime in Indonesia Bank-based system Separation between banks, NBFIs, and capital market Each segments has its own Acts and regulations (Banking, Insurance, Multifinance, Capital Market Acts) Coordination through the so-called financial stability forum/committee Currently being proposed in the Financial Safety Net Bill

7 Financial Supervisory Regime in Indonesia Put more emphasis on Banking Stability : Encourage banks to place their excess liquidity into BI certificates (SBI) LOLR for commercials and rural banks (BPR) Deposits protection scheme (up to $ ) Setting a firewall wall between bank and capital market + NBFIs, e.g. Limits on banks exposure toward capital market and underwriting activities Limits on bank lending to NBFIs Administrative control on short term external debt of banks, etc Pursuing an active banking policy to encourage greater access for the poor and unbanked groups Promoting banking consolidation, esp through tier 1 capital requirement Results so far: stable, liquid, well capitalized and profitable banks; yet, less efficient and with a shallow financial market

11 Moderate Risks Facing Banking Industry in Indonesia Traditional banking system deposit to lend business model Leverage in general is not a pervasive problem Market risk exposure is limited, with negligible FX exposures Credit risk is manageable, albeit a slight upward pressures recently Systemic risk is relatively low integrated stress testing reflected that vast majority of banks are quite resilient against growing pressure of risks Trillion IDR Loans, Deposits, and Total Assets 2,500 Pre Crisis Recover 2,000 Deposits 1,500 Total Assets 1,000 Loans % 80% 60% 40% 20% Banking Risk Exposure 100% 98,37% 100% 99,19% 95,12% M Jan- Feb- ar- 09 0% 0,00% 1,63% 0,00% 0,81% 4,88% FX Risk Interest Rate Govn Bond Credit Risk Integrated Risk Risk Risk Number of Bank Under High Risk Exposure Resilient

13 Credit risk is a major challenge for most Indonesian banks. Gross and net NPLs have been steadily trending upward (at 4,5% in April) Yet, banks have ample provisioning (>100%), making them capable of mitigating unexpected losses Bank Indonesia exercises strong vigilant mode over the credit risk exposure Credit Risk Remains Moderately Increasing (%) Gross NPL (lhs) Net NPL (lhs) Non Performing Loan Nominal NPL (rhs) (IDR T) Gross NPL Ratio (%) Dec08 Mar09 Feb09 Apr09 % Gross NPL Ratio by Sector des08 apr09 mar Working Capital Investment Consumption Agriculture Mining Manufacturing Electricity Construction Trade Transport Business Services Social Services Others

15 PresentationPlan Stylized Facts on Indonesian Financial Sector Post Crisis Banking Policy Response: Reasons behind the notable performance Vision of Future Supervisory Regime

16 Banking Policy Direction Post 1997/98 crisis, Indonesian banking policy shifted to a total transformation: after recapitalization cum consolidation programs since , since 2003 Indonesian Banking Architecture(IBA) has been set as the long term policy direction and responses to structural weaknessess in six areas: Sub-optimal banking system structure Weak legal/regulatory and enforcements Feeble banks governance Weak risk managementand culture Sub-optimal infrastructure Absence of proper customer protection

Promotion of Risk Culture and Risk Management 5. GCG implementation 6. Credit Bureau 7. Customer and Deposits protection scheme 8. Financial Stability Surveillance and Crisis Management Protocol 17

18 PresentationPlan Financial Supervisory Challenges in Indonesia

19 Challenges in Supervisory Function(1/2) Challenges 1. Information Gapamong financial supervisors Issues Transparency needs to be improved; Information gap among regulators in Indonesia needs to close 2. RegulatoryArbitrageamong markets Banks have been highly regulated Financial institutions take advantage of regulatory differentials between bank and non-bank as well as highly and less regulated markets 3. Systemic prudential enforcement No legal power Needto strengthen prudential enforcement

20 Challenges in Supervisory Function(2/2) Challenges 4. Stability vs Efficiency: Regulatory Forbearance Issues There is an objective need to pursue active banking policy to provide greater acces for the poor and unbanked groups(financial inclusion); However, burden being put on banking prudentialpolicy without a well designed policy and clear objectives on access for the poor/unbanked people nationally 5. Crisis Management Protocol CMP has been based on MOU (Emergency Law). Clearmandate and accountability is needed, in particular when dealing with systemic/crisis situations

21 PresentationPlan Stylized Facts on Indonesian Financial Sector Supervisory Regime in Indonesia Future Financial Supervisory Regime in Indonesia?

22 Future Global Financial System Post-crisis, financial system may have the following characteristics: Global financial integration goes onwith international financial centers continues to be heavily dependent on open trade Large and complex financial institutions continue to operate in multiple jurisdictions Capital markets will continue to develop as the source of intermediation Butmarket players will tend to focus more on counterparty risks Regulators will focus more on systemic risksand there are needs to have a stronger financial stability standards More banking consolidation

23 Desired Roles of Financial Services in Indonesia Given the complexity and imperfect global financial architecture, there is still the need to pursue stability objective in Indonesian context Yet with a vision to have a more efficient financial system so as to provide low-cost financing for the economy The need to deepen financial system: Greater financial inclusion for poor and unbanked society Widen access of the SME to the financial markets (access to finance for SMEs to support a long-term, stable socio economid development) Provide more financial instruments to wider array of community and investors

24 Future Financial Policy : A pragmatic approach Current Financial System Support for equitable development 1. More emphasis on promoting efficiency i.e. Putting more market competition and financial innovations; 2. It may reduce the scope for regulatory forbearance (intervention) and rely more on market mechanism to allocate resources, esp. to SMEs 3. However, it bears costs. It may increase the risk of instability in the financial system; Future Financial System More Stability More Efficiency
