Corporate Social Responsibility

Environmental Responsibility

Indonesia Eximbank’s responsibility towards the environment and its conservation is manifested in the form of our environmental CSR activities. Our CSR programs are long-term and have multiplier effects on local communities, and are aimed towards the prosperity and independence of their respective regions.

As another form of responsibility towards the environment, Indonesia Eximbank implements a variety of green office programs in our working environment. Effectivity and efficiency of energy utilization are the main objectives of the program, and we hope to achieve an environmentally friendly working environment through constitent support from employees and stakeholders alike.

Sengon Seeds Cultivation Program

In 2015, Indonesia Eximbank provided the Gabungan Kelompok Tani Desa Semagar of the Wonogiri Regency, Central Java with 20.000 sengon tree seeds as part of our sustainable environmental CSR programs. The event was overseen by the Finance Minister of Indonesia, and is one of Indonesia Eximbank’s contribution to environmental conservation.

Sengon tree seeds were chosen after careful deliberation by taking Wonogiri’s relatively dry land conditions into account. Sengon trees can be harvested in a relatively short time and do not require intensive treatment prior to its harvest, making it a suitable choice for a land in dire need of reforestation.

The Sengon Seeds Cultivation Program has been continuously conducted by Indonesia Eximbank since 2014. Its installation was founded on the signing of the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between Indonesia Eximbank, PT Bhakti Usaha Menanam Nusantara Hijau Lestari I, and PT Nagabhuana Aneka Piranti.

Green Office Program

In 2012, Indonesia Eximbank began implementing a variety of green office programs, which are a set of guidelines detailing energy utilization in the institution’s working environment. Every employee is required to adhere to these guidelines, as they are part of the Executive Director Regulation No. 0024/PDE/04/2012 regarding The Management of Indonesia Eximbank Facilities and Infrastructure.

  • Minimizing paper usage and using recycled paper

    Indonesia Eximbank provides all employees with internal communications media, which ensure continuity of working process all the while minimizing paper usage. When paper documents are required, employees are obliged to use recycled paper while still keeping the document’s functions, confidentiality, and efficiency in mind.

    • Turning off lights in unused rooms;
    • Ensuring that water faucets are properly turned off if unused.

The green office program is regularly communicated through e-mail to all personnel to raise awareness of environmental conservation.

Social and Community Development

Indonesia Eximbank's commitment towards social and community development is manifested through a series of programs directed at local communities.

Farmers of Wonogiri, Central Java

Indonesia Eximbank actively participates in community development programs in an effort to boost home industry-based economy. One recent example of this is the Sengon Seed Cultivation Program, where Indonesia Eximbank provided residents of Semagar Village, Wonogiri, Central Java with 20.000 sengon tree seeds to be grown and harvested in the area. The sengon wood from these trees will then be sold to PT Nagabhuna Aneka Piranti as one of Indonesia Eximbank’s debtors. The earnings from this sale are expected to add value to the village’s resources, improving Semagar Village community welfare in the process.

Indonesia Eximbank also offers consultation services to farmers in the program concerning the production of organic fertilizers, which are used in the sengon tree cultivation process and other crops grown within the region.

Goyor Woven Sarong Weavers

Indonesia Eximbank provided the sarong weaver community of Wangandewa Village, Tegal, Central Java, with Non-Mechanical Weaving Equipments, in an effort to expand the production capacity of goyor woven sarongs in the region. The village’s sarong weavers community is a supplier to one of Indonesia Eximbank’s debtors.

Cocoa Farmers of Jembrana, Bali

Indonesia Eximbank, through advisory services in collaboration with the Kalimajari Foundation, provided support and conducted programs to improve the quality of cocoa produced by farmers of Jembrana, Bali. One of these programs was the Lestari Cocoa Program, which consisted of workshops, training programs, and direct assistance in infrastructural affairs. Through this incentive, Indonesia Eximbank was able to facilitate 1,588 Jembrana farmers in 2012.

The program prompted Koperasi Kerta Semaya Samaniya, under the Kalimajari Foundation, to obtain UTZ Certification, which enabled Bali cocoa farmers to increase their bargaining power through the production of certified cocoa commodity.

Indonesia Eximbank through Koperasi Kerta Semaya Samaniya offered consultation and training for Jembrana cocoa farmers concerning the development and quality improvement of Jembrana cacao production, both pre- and post-harvest.

Life Jacket Program

Indonesia Eximbank views the park as a valuable asset of Indonesian tourism, a major sector expected to significantly increase foreign exchange.
