Jakarta. Veteran banker Putrama Wahju Setyawan has been appointed as the new Chief Executive Officer of state-owned Bank Negara Indonesia (BNI), following the bank’s annual shareholders’ meeting on Wednesday. He succeeds Royke Tumilaar, who led significant reforms to enhance BNI’s digital services and expand its global presence.

The meeting also confirmed the appointment of Alexandra Askandar -- former Deputy CEO of fellow state-owned lender Bank Mandiri -- as BNI’s new Deputy CEO.

Alexandra’s appointment was a swap with BNI’s finance director Novita Widya Anggraini who earlier was assigned to a similar role at Mandiri.

Putrama, 55, has been with BNI for nearly two decades. He first assumed an executive role in 2011 as Head of the Corporate Remedial and Recovery Division. His promotion to the top post comes a year after being named Deputy CEO.
