And Seminars

“Financial Services Business Opportunities and Financial Services Consumer Protection”

Wednesday, October 26 2016 In order to expand the cooperation network of UPN "Veteran" Jakarta, a Memorandum of Understanding or MoU was held with BRISyariah which aims to develop a study program, especially in the Banking Finance D3 Study Program. Besides signing the MoU as well as handing over or granting Sharia-based Mini Bank software and applications to UPNVJ.

Not only that, BRISyariah also explained about what is Smart Practice carried out by the OJK. Laku Pandai is abbreviated as Branchless Financial Services in the Context of Inclusive Finance, namely the Financial Services Authority (OJK) Program for the provision of banking services or other financial services through collaboration with other parties (bank agents), and supported by the use of information technology facilities . This program aims to provide financial products that are simple, easy to understand and in accordance with the needs of people who have not been able to access financial services. Apart from that, it is also to facilitate community economic activities so as to encourage economic growth and equitable distribution of development between regions in Indonesia, especially between villages and cities (ojk.go.id). Laku Pandai itself only requires a telephone number as an account number and personal data to make it which can make it easier for prospective customers who only use smartphones.

With this MoU, D3 Banking Finance students are asked to open or create Smart Savings which is run by the Laku Pandai agent itself and it is hoped that in the future it will make it easier for students to pay tuition fees at the beginning of the semester, later there will be no deductions or administrative fees taken from Smart Savings there itself.
