Royke Tumilaar, CEO of PT Bank Negara Indonesia (Persero) Tbk (BNI), was honored with the prestigious CEO of the Year 2024 award at the Infobank Top 100 CEO event held at Ritz Carlton, Jakarta, on November 29. The award highlights Tumilaar’s exceptional leadership in steering BNI toward becoming a stronger and more competitive force in Indonesia’s dynamic financial sector.

“This recognition reflects the dedication, hard work, and outstanding contributions of the entire BNI team. It inspires us to further innovate and achieve our vision for a sustainable, technology-driven future,” Tumilaar remarked during his acceptance speech.

BNI’s success at the event extended beyond Tumilaar, with Director of Technology and Operations, Toto Prasetio, receiving the “Bankers of the Year 2024” accolade for his pivotal role in driving digital transformation. Innovations such as wondr by BNI for retail clients and BNIdirect for corporate services have positioned BNI as a leader in integrated digital solutions.

The event also spotlighted rising stars in the industry with the The 200 Future Leaders 2024 awards. Four key figures from BNI—Hussein Paolo Kartadjoemena, Novita Widya Anggraini, Bun Hendra, and Rian Eriana Kaslan—were recognized for their potential to shape the future of banking in Indonesia.

Under the theme “Advancing a Competitive and Innovative Future for Indonesian Banking,” the Infobank Top 100 CEO event emphasized the need for collaboration, sustainability, and adaptability in the rapidly evolving financial landscape.

Looking ahead, BNI is committed to furthering its digital transformation, enhancing customer experiences, and expanding financial inclusion across Indonesia. As part of its role as a global bank under Indonesia’s Ministry of State-Owned Enterprises (BUMN), BNI aims to strengthen international networks, support diaspora communities, and foster global economic ties.

“The Infobank awards celebrate CEOs and bankers who have demonstrated unwavering dedication to driving their institutions forward and contributing to national economic growth,” said Eko B. Supriyanto, Chairman of Infobank Media Group.

BNI’s achievements at the 2024 Infobank Top 100 CEO Awards reaffirm its position as a trailblazer in the Indonesian banking sector, combining innovation, leadership, and a vision for sustainable growth.
