Jakarta, 12 December 2023. PT Bank JTrust Indonesia Tbk (J Trust Bank) received an award at the 2023 IDX Channel CSR Award ceremony held on December 12, 2023, at the Indonesia Stock Exchange (BEI) Building in Jakarta. The Corporate Secretary Division Head of J Trust Bank, Ridyawan Amnar, received the award on behalf of the bank.
J Trust Bank won the Social Development Initiative category in an event. The bank won because of its community empowerment program, specifically women home-based housing businesses. The program was implemented in collaboration with the Manpower, Transmigration, and Energy Department of the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government.
The program was selected because it can support the community's economy at the grassroots level, and also encourages the use of unused materials. This is in line with the spirit of urban waste processing. The materials used by the program are mostly used fabric that would otherwise go to waste. This means that, apart from being economically beneficial, the program also helps reduce fabric waste that accumulates from production.
Winning this award is a great encouragement for J Trust Bank to continue developing various initiatives that can maximize its contribution to Indonesian society.
