As of 30th September 2008, operating profit totaled Rp 504.3 billion or grew by 35% over the same period in the previous year.

"As the significant increase in lending was always safely guarded by the application of prudential banking practices, both assets and credit were maintained at good quality," disclosed Jerry Ng. (FDT: www.detik.com source)
