Two of Indonesia's largest state-owned banks, PT Bank Rakyat Indonesia (BBRI) and PT Bank Mandiri (BMRI), are set to distribute interim dividends for the fiscal year 2025 to their shareholders next week. This significant financial event will inject substantial liquidity into the market and demonstrate the banks' strong financial performance.

• BRI (BBRI) will pay Rp137 per share, totaling Rp20.63 trillion, on January 15, 2026.
• Mandiri (BMRI) will pay Rp100 per share, amounting to approximately Rp9.3 trillion, on January 14, 2026.

Shareholder Benefits and Market Impact

The dividend payments are expected to benefit major shareholders, including Danantara Asset Management, which controls significant stakes in both banks. Danantara is projected to receive a total of Rp15.89 trillion from the combined dividend distributions of BRI and Mandiri. Other significant shareholders, such as Indonesia Investment Authority (INA), will also receive substantial dividends.
