Overview

Ensuring full IFRS 9 compliance

As part of their reporting requirements, all banks have to comply with the global IFRS 9 standards. IFRS is a set of accounting rules and standards that determine how accounting events should be reported in the business’s financial statements.

The Indonesian financial services authority set a 2020 deadline for all banks to implement the regulations.

The move to IFRS 9 required JTrust Bank, along with all other banks, to make significant changes to how they report, making this a significant project for the organization.

With risk mitigation at the front of mind, they looked for a partner who could help them not just with the initial implementation, but who would be able to automate and streamline their reporting process going forward.

Client Profile:

PT Bank JTrust Indonesia Tbk. (JTrust Bank) is one of the fastest growing companies in Indonesia.

With locations across the country, they offer business and personal banking services and are a subsidiary of the Japanese JTrust Group.
