Jakarta: The latest Supply and Demand Financing Survey conducted by Bank Indonesia (BI) pointed to relatively stable corporate demand for financing in the next three months.
It was confirmed by a relatively stable 26.5% weighted net balance (WNB) of demand for financing compared with 27.1% one month earlier.
By sector, Agriculture, Fishing and Forestry; Trade, Transportation and Storage; as well as Mining and Quarrying recorded the most significant financing growth.
"Respondents confirmed that increasing demand for financing would be used to support operating activities and the ongoing domestic demand recovery in the new normal era as well as repay maturing obligations," said BI Communication Department Head Erwin Haryono in a press release issued on Friday.
In terms of households, demand for financing in the next three months was more subdued. In February 2021, only 1.9% of respondents planned to increase financing, down from 2.4% in the previous survey. Nonetheless, household financing was still dominated by commercial banks and multipurpose loans.
On the supply side, new loan disbursements from the banking industry were expected to expand in the first quarter of 2021, as indicated by an increase in the corresponding WNB to 59.4%, with quarterly growth expected to increase across all bank groups and loan types.
