Abstract

This is part of a case series. In the midst of Indonesia's financial and economic crisis, Bank Mandiri was formed on 2 October, 1998 as a holding company for four state banks. Like most other banks in Indonesia during the Asian financial crisis, these four banks were insolvent. Bank Mandiri was recapitalised at a cost to the Indonesian government of IDR175.3 trillion (USD17 billion approximately), one of the biggest recapitalisations for a single bank in Asia. The bank subsequently underwent a massive restructuring, encompassing a reduction of around 8,000 personnel, the closure of about 200 branches, drastic reductions in the amount of non-performing loans on its books and the wholesale creation of new systems of credit risk management, corporate governance and compliance.
