In Indonesia, bigger seems to be better. Indonesia’s largest lender, Bank Mandiri, gets the nod for a year of consolidation during which it cleaned up a ropey loan book and managed to lift profits by 80%.
Indonesian corporates are again up and about, and state-owned Mandiri seems well placed to serve them. Full-year net profit in 2007 was $475 million, a vast improvement on the $270 million a year earlier, and helped along by loan growth that was 20% higher.
