This new funding with competitive pricing is evidence of BUMA’s credibility as a leading coal mining contractor company in Indonesia. We will use this funding to support our corporate actions and bolster BUMA’s operational activities. We hope that this collaboration can also lead to broader cooperation.”

Irvan Y. Noor, SEVP Enterprise Banking of Bank Muamalat, said that they welcomed the synergy with Delta Dunia Group through one of its subsidiaries, BUMA. This step is part of the commitment of the first purely sharia bank in Indonesia to contribute to sharia syndicated financing, especially in US dollar denominations. Apart from that, this collaboration can also be an entry point for Bank Muamalat to provide services to BUMA employees, including multi-purpose financing.

“This participation undoubtedly further strengthens Bank Muamalat’s portfolio in the corporate financing segment and demonstrates our active commitment to supporting national companies, particularly in the energy sector. Furthermore, we are optimistic that this contribution will enhance market confidence in Bank Muamalat, which is currently in the process of listing on the Indonesian Stock Exchange,” said Irvan.

With the company’s ongoing growth, we are confident in our ability to support the government’s economic growth agenda while also making a positive impact on society and the environment at large, aligning with the company’s environmental, social, and governance (ESG) commitments,” he stated.

As information, BUMA is one of the leading coal mining contractors in Indonesia that has successfully implemented a diversification strategy. This diversification includes metallurgical coal mining activities, especially through expansion into Australia by acquiring BUMA Australia in December 2021. In Q1 2023, Delta Dunia Group’s metallurgical coal and infrastructure businesses contributed 15% of group revenue. Supported by operational success in Indonesia and Australia, the diversification strategy and operational performance of the company have successfully increased Q1 revenue to USD 409 million, equivalent to IDR 6.13 trillion, representing a 23% increase compared to the previous year.
