Jakarta, Indonesia – Bank Mandiri, Indonesia’s largest state-owned lender, marked a historic milestone this June by securing 16 prestigious awards at the FinanceAsia Awards 2025 and Asia’s Best Companies 2025 held in Hong Kong. The bank’s multi-category wins signal not just strong financial performance, but its strategic leadership in Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) practices across Southeast Asia.
Among its standout accolades were Best Sustainable Bank, Biggest Sustainable Impact, and Most DEI Progressive, reinforcing its position as a regional trailblazer in sustainability and inclusive finance. This recognition aligns with the growing global shift toward ESG-driven business models, particularly in ASEAN economies where regulatory and investor expectations are intensifying.
As of March 2025, Bank Mandiri reported a sustainable portfolio of IDR 294 trillion, up 11% year-on-year, driven largely by green financing which now makes up over IDR 148 trillion—a 13.4% increase from the previous year. These numbers reflect more than growth—they indicate a strategic pivot toward long-term, environmentally conscious financing.
This sustainability push was further solidified by the successful issuance of Green Bonds Phase II, valued at IDR 5 trillion and oversubscribed 2.55 times—demonstrating robust investor confidence in the bank’s ESG roadmap.
In the Asia’s Best Companies 2025 rankings, which are derived from in-depth investor and market surveys, Bank Mandiri achieved Gold-tier recognition in Most Committed to ESG, Best DEI, and Best Large Cap Company. It also secured distinctions for Best CFO, Best CEO, Best Managed Company, and Best Investor Relations.
“ESG and diversity are not trends—they are the future foundation of a resilient financial sector,” said Darmawan Junaidi, President Director of Bank Mandiri. “These awards validate our operational alignment with values that prioritize inclusion, sustainability, and digital empowerment.”
Bank Mandiri’s employee base reflects that commitment: 52% of staff are women, with 46% holding managerial positions. The bank also promotes career opportunities for individuals with disabilities, embedding DEI principles deeply within its talent development strategy.
Parallel to its sustainability leadership, Bank Mandiri continues to accelerate digital transformation. Its flagship app Livin’ by Mandiri has reached 31.6 million active users, facilitating over 1.8 billion transactions worth IDR 1,744 trillion as of May 2025—a 12% increase from the previous year.
For the corporate segment, Kopra by Mandiri is reshaping enterprise financial ecosystems, offering real-time digital solutions like Electronic Invoice Presentment & Payment (EIPP). In Q1 2025 alone, Kopra processed over 349 million transactions totaling IDR 6,000 trillion.
Bank Mandiri also received Best Retail Bank, Best Corporate Bank, Best Strategic Initiative – Banks, and Most Innovative Use of Technology—confirming its dual strength in retail banking and enterprise innovation.
As ASEAN’s financial ecosystem becomes more interconnected and digitally enabled, Bank Mandiri’s performance sends a clear message: that regional leadership in finance is no longer just about capital strength, but also about purpose-driven innovation and inclusive strategy.
