BPS and BRI Lampung Strengthen Regional Economic Data Synergy

Bandar Lampung — Exactly on the day the national Economic Census began, BPS Lampung Province received an audience visit from the regional leadership of Bank Rakyat Indonesia (BRI) of Lampung Province on Monday, June 15, 2026. This strategic meeting at the start of the week highlighted a shared vision: driving the people's economic growth through the utilization of accurate data and well-targeted capital.

During the warm conversation, BRI outlined the importance of macroeconomic data and regional industrial profiles as a compass for distributing People's Business Credit (KUR). As the bank with the largest MSME portfolio, BRI needs statistical references from BPS to map out which business sectors in Lampung are currently thriving and most in need of an injection of financial literacy and inclusion.

Conversely, BPS warmly welcomed this exchange of insights. Understanding digital transaction trends and real banking dynamics from BRI's perspective provides valuable insights for BPS analysts. This collaborative information exchange will enrich the narrative of future BPS statistical releases, ensuring the data presented is not just numbers, but also possesses deep economic stories from the perspective of financial industry players.

This audience moment was naturally utilized to the fullest by BPS to gather full support for the 2026 Economic Census (SE2026). BPS invited BRI to help socialize the importance of the census to their millions of MSME clients. The trust clients have in BRI is expected to be transmitted into a cooperative attitude when BPS census officers knock on the doors of their businesses.

This excellent synergy between the data producer and the banking giant births new optimism. Through measured collaboration of data and capital, BPS and BRI are committed to jointly guarding the revival of small and medium enterprises, realizing a more resilient and inclusive economic structure for Lampung Province.
