IDXChannel - The Financial Services Authority (OJK) and regional governments continue to encourage the acceleration of equitable access to finance in various regions, including eastern Indonesia, to help improve community welfare.
"Efforts to expand financial access need to continue in all regions," Head of the OJK Literacy, Financial Inclusion, and Communications Department Aman Santosa stated in Jakarta on Saturday.
"(This is) so that economic improvement can be achieved through concrete steps together in bringing all levels of society closer to financial products and services," he affirmed.
OJK's support for accelerating financial access in the region was carried out through the formation and inauguration of the Southwest Papua Regional Financial Access Acceleration Team (TPAKD) that was followed by a TPAKD Coordination Meeting throughout the Papua region in Sorong on Thursday (July 11).
The coordination meeting is expected to identify obstacles and challenges to TPAKD tasks and provide financial access in the Papua region so that effective and efficient policy recommendations can be formulated to improve the economy and community welfare.
