This 2018 Indonesia Banking Booklet constitutes a publication media presenting brief information concerning Indonesian banking industry. This booklet is expected to enable the readers to obtain brief information concerning direction of the banking policies in 2018 as well as policies and regulations in the banking sector issued by Indonesia Financial Services Authority (OJK) in 2017.

In contrast to the previous edition, this edition is divided into four chapters, as follows:

• Chapter I, which contains (i) OJK's vision, missions, functions and tasks and (ii) definitions, prohibition and business activities of the banking industry;
• Chapter II, which contains the authorities and policies of OJK in the banking sector;
• Chapter III, which contains the direction of OJK's policies in 2018 and the development of OJK's policies in 2017; and
• Chapter IV, which contains banking regulations that are still in force, including OJK's Regulations issued in 2017.

We realize that there are yet shortcomings in the presentation of this 2018 Indonesia Banking Booklet in terms of contents and formats, however, we still hope that the information presented can yet provide optimal benefits to the readers.
