In late July 2026, Bank Rakyat Indonesia (BRI) reported a sharp rise in multi‑purpose loan disbursements—up 44.7% year‑on‑year—and a rapid expansion of its digital‑payment network, with QRIS transaction volume climbing 76% and merchant numbers increasing by more than 300,000. Total assets grew 7.2% to IDR 2,250 trillion, reinforcing the bank’s low‑cost funding base and its role in financial inclusion. A week later, BRI announced the next phase of its BRIvolution Reignite transformation, focusing on funding efficiency, transaction‑banking capabilities, and core‑system upgrades to boost micro‑credit and consumer banking. The bank also launched BRIncubator 2026, an incubation programme aimed at supporting micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in food & beverage, fashion & beauty, and home‑decor sectors, providing mentorship, digitalisation assistance and export‑market preparation. On 4 August 2026, BRI formally inaugurated the BRIncubator 2026 programme, emphasizing intensive mentorship and export‑readiness. The bank endorsed the government’s Saldo Anggaran Lebih (SAL) cash‑management instrument, noting that the added liquidity would help maintain stable intermediation and extend quality credit to productive sectors. BRI reported Q1‑2026 assets of IDR 2.250 trillion and credit of IDR 1.562 trillion. This period also saw recognition of innovation via the SIEXPO 2026 award. By early August, BRI continued expanding MSME support by leveraging the BRIncubator 2026 program through its Rumah BUMN BRI network, focusing on business strategy and financial literacy. The bank also remained a primary distributor of the government's Kredit Usaha Rakyat (KUR) program, providing essential financing to MSMEs facing collateral or credit history limitations. On 9 August 2026, BRI reported further progress in financial inclusion through its BRILink Agent network. As of June 2026, the network comprised 1.13 million agents across more than 60,753 villages, recording over 501 million transactions with a sales volume of Rp841 trillion during the first half of the year.
