Background


Since 1975, Bank Indonesia has managed credit information to support task implementation as the banking and monetary authority as well as to service the needs of the financial industry, particularly in terms of underpinning the smooth provision of funds and buttressing risk management. The provision of credit information by Bank Indonesia remains limited to standard product information, with the scope of data dominated by banks and several non-bank financial institutions.

During its development, the financial industry requires more comprehensive credit information with a wider data scope that also incorporates data external to the financial industry. According to international best practices, in general, more comprehensive credit product information is provided and managed by private credit bureaus.

To this end, Bank Indonesia acknowledged the requirement to open a private credit bureau, which has subsequently become known as the Credit Bureau (Lembaga Pengelola Informasi Perkreditan or LPIP). Through LPIP, the demand from the financial industry for more comprehensive credit information will be met, which will enhance the intermediation function of financial institutions and ultimately promote financial system stability.
