Bank Indonesia (BI) stated through a written statement on Tuesday, May 5, that the national banking condition is solid with high capital adequacy ratio of 17.4 percent and gross non-performing loan of under 5 percent.

Banks' liquidity, which includes interbank financial market's liquidity, is improving and third-party fund is increasing. Loan distribution in the first quarter of 2009 was not yet optimal. But it is expected to increase in the second quarter of 2009.
