During the event, he called for broader access to financial services and financing for the community, particularly UMKM.

DELI SERDANG | INDATANEWS.COM - The Deli Serdang Regency Government has urged PT BPR Nusantara Bonapasogit, or the NBP Group, to further expand access to financial services and financing for the community, particularly for micro, small and medium enterprises (UMKM). The move is considered important to strengthen economic activity in the region while creating greater opportunities for residents to develop their businesses.

Deli Serdang Regent's Economic, Financial and Development Adviser, Misran Sihaloho, made the statement while attending the "Gebyar Undian Tabungan Pundi" event and the award ceremony for borrowers of PT BPR Nusantara Bonapasogit at Wisma Husada Delitua on Thursday, August 20, 2026.

At the event, Misran represented Deli Serdang Regent Asri Ludin Tambunan. He praised the NBP Group's contribution to supporting the community's economic activities through various savings and financing products.

According to Misran, the banking sector plays a strategic role in driving the regional economy. This role is reflected not only in banks' ability to mobilize funds from the public, but also in providing access to financing that can support business growth.

"The banking sector holds an important position as a driver of the regional economy, not only through savings products but also through access to financing that people can use to develop their businesses, particularly UMKM," he said.

Banks as Drivers of UMKM Growth

Misran views expanding access to financing as an important component in building a stronger regional economy. UMKM need accessible financing options to increase production capacity, develop their businesses and create new economic opportunities.

For this reason, the Deli Serdang Government has urged the NBP Group to continue providing financial services that meet the needs of the community. In addition to financing, greater attention should also be given to financial literacy so that people can develop a better understanding of money management and make appropriate use of banking services.

Efforts to strengthen financial access, Misran said, are in line with Deli Serdang's vision of becoming healthy, intelligent, prosperous, religious and sustainable. The regional government wants economic growth to focus not merely on increasing business activity, but also on delivering greater benefits to the community as a whole.

Stronger financial inclusion can also help people who have previously had limited access to banking services. By further opening access to financing, UMKM will have better opportunities to expand their businesses sustainably.

The Deli Serdang Government hopes the NBP Group will continue improving the quality of its services to customers. At the same time, the regional government is calling on the institution to strengthen financial literacy and make financing more accessible to those who need it.

"We want to build an economic ecosystem that gives people room to grow, boosts productivity and improves prosperity," he said.

Deli Serdang Appreciates NBP's Contribution

The Deli Serdang Government considers cooperation between the regional administration and financial institutions an important part of strengthening the economic ecosystem. The presence of banks within the community provides not only additional savings opportunities, but can also make them partners for people seeking to develop their economic activities and businesses.

UMKM financing is among the areas receiving particular attention, as the sector is directly connected to the community's economic activities. Easy access to financing tailored to business needs can help enterprises increase productivity and expand their operations.

Improving service quality and financial literacy is also expected to encourage people to use banking products more consciously and responsibly. Ultimately, this can strengthen relationships among financial institutions, businesses and the government in promoting regional economic growth.

Meanwhile, President and Chief Executive Officer of PT BPR Nusantara Bonapasogit, or the NBP Group, Hendi Apriliyanto, expressed his appreciation for the Deli Serdang Government's support for the NBP Group's presence and activities.

Hendi expressed hope that the NBP Group's presence would continue to benefit the community, particularly through financial services that meet the needs of residents and business owners.

Savings Draw and Borrower Awards

Following the speeches, the event continued with the "Gebyar Undian Tabungan Pundi" for the 18th period, fifth phase. The draw was part of the NBP Group's activities to recognize customers participating in its savings program.

The event was then followed by the "Gebyar Pemberian Hadiah Debitur" for the third period, fifth phase, of the BPR NBP Group. The awards served as a form of recognition for borrowers and also marked the conclusion of the event series at Wisma Husada Delitua.

The event also demonstrated the NBP Group's efforts to strengthen its relationships with customers and the wider community. The Deli Serdang Government, meanwhile, hopes financial institutions will continue making a positive contribution to strengthening the regional economy.

By expanding access to financing, improving service quality and strengthening financial literacy, the NBP Group is expected to respond more effectively to the needs of the community. The Deli Serdang Government therefore calls for this cooperation to be further strengthened so that the benefits of banking services can reach more people, particularly UMKM as one of the drivers of the community's economic development.
