As part of its efforts to expand public literacy on the role of fintech in Indonesia, MEKAR appeared in a live broadcast on BTV in June. During this session, MEKAR shared its perspective on the importance of productive financing in fostering inclusive and sustainable economic growth.


MEKAR’s presence on a national media platform marks a strategic step in strengthening public understanding of fintech not merely as a lending provider, but as an enabler of productive sector development.


Productive Financing as an Economic Driver

During the session, MEKAR emphasized that productive financing plays a crucial role in strengthening economic foundations, particularly for MSMEs.


Access to the right funding enables businesses to scale operations, increase production capacity, and expand market reach.


Moreover, well-targeted financing contributes to a multiplier effect in the economy, including job creation and improved societal welfare.



The Role of Fintech in Inclusion and Sustainability

Through a technology- and data-driven approach, MEKAR continues to deliver more inclusive financing solutions. Fintech enables faster, more efficient processes while reaching segments that previously had limited access to formal financial services.


“MSMEs are the backbone of Indonesia’s economy, yet they still face significant limitations, especially in accessing capital. With the right financing support, they can scale up and enhance competitiveness. This is not just about business. It’s about economic equality,” said Pandu.

This approach aligns with MEKAR’s vision of driving not only rapid but also sustainable growth. By focusing on productive sectors, MEKAR ensures that its financing generates tangible impact for businesses and local economies.


MEKAR’s Commitment to Public Education

Participation in this live broadcast reflects MEKAR’s commitment to continuously educating the public on responsible fintech practices. It also opens broader dialogue among industry players, regulators, and the public.



Through this initiative, MEKAR aims to raise awareness of the importance of productive financing and strengthen public trust in the fintech industry.


“Going forward, MEKAR will continue to strengthen its role in building a sustainable financing ecosystem. We are not only focused on fund disbursement but also on creating long-term impact for society. Collaboration is key to achieving this,” Pandu added.

MEKAR’s appearance on BTV represents a concrete step in expanding its impact and reinforcing its positioning as a fintech focused on inclusive economic growth.


Moving forward, MEKAR will remain active across communication channels to advocate for productive financing and ecosystem collaboration.
