The dividend distribution phase of PT Bank Negara Indonesia (Persero) Tbk will enter the cum dividend period this week before Nyepi and Eid holidays 2026. For regular and negotiation markets, the cum dividend is scheduled for Tuesday, March 17, 2026.
Cum dividend on the cash market will occur on March 26, 2026, which also marks the recording date, or the date determining who is entitled to receive the dividend. This schedule serves as an important milestone for investors who want to ensure their names are recorded as recipients of the fiscal year 2025 dividend.
Thus, shareholders registered on the recording date will begin receiving dividend payments on April 7, 2026. This momentum also feels like a "THR" for investors, adding to the festive atmosphere ahead of the long Nyepi and Eid holidays.
BNI Corporate Secretary Okki Rushartomo said the dividend distribution decision reflects the company's commitment to consistently deliver optimal returns to shareholders, while also maintaining the company's fundamental health by strengthening its capital structure.
"This decision is part of the Company's efforts to provide added value to shareholders, while ensuring the company's performance can continue to grow sustainably," Okki said in a written statement.
The dividend distribution was previously approved at the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders (AGMS) for the fiscal year 2025 held on Monday, March 9, 2026. This forum is an important annual agenda for the company to determine various strategic decisions.
At the meeting, BNI agreed to distribute a cash dividend of Rp13.03 trillion, equivalent to 65% of the consolidated net profit, which is distributable to the owners of the parent entity, amounting to Rp20.04 trillion. Of this total dividend, each shareholder will receive Rp349.41 per share, reflecting the company's commitment to providing attractive returns to investors.
In addition to dividend distribution, shareholders also approved the use of 35% of net profit, or approximately IDR 7.01 trillion, as retained earnings. This policy is part of the company's strategy to maintain healthy room for expansion.
The retained earnings will be used to support business development and strengthen BNI's capital capacity amidst the ever-evolving dynamics of the banking industry. This step is expected to maintain the company's solid performance while opening up opportunities for sustainable growth in the future.
"Going forward, BNI will continue to strengthen its performance sustainably while maintaining a solid capital structure to create optimal value for shareholders," Okki concluded.
