BNI Unveils 80th Anniversary Logo, Symbolizing Dedication to Indonesia

PT Bank Negara Indonesia (Persero) Tbk, or BNI, has introduced a logo for its 80th anniversary, marking its extensive journey in serving the Indonesian people. The new emblem embodies BNI's dedication, collaborative spirit, and unwavering commitment to supporting the financial requirements of Indonesians throughout various generations.

As BNI approaches its eight-decade milestone in 2026, it reaffirms its position as the nation's first state-owned bank, growing alongside the country. For 80 years, BNI has functioned not only as a financial service provider but also as a partner in people's lives, assisting with savings, business development, and achieving financial goals.

“

80 years is not just an achievement, but a mandate to continue providing broader benefits to the community. Through the 80th anniversary logo, we want to present a more humanistic interpretation of how BNI's values of service are present in the daily lives of Indonesians.

BNI President Director Putrama Wahju Setyawan stated that the 80th anniversary serves as a moment for reflection on the bank's long service to the nation and to strengthen its commitment to providing relevant services. "80 years is not just an achievement, but a mandate to continue providing broader benefits to the community. Through the 80th anniversary logo, we want to present a more humanistic interpretation of how BNI's values of service are present in the daily lives of Indonesians," Putrama said in a written statement.

Putrama highlighted BNI's origins on July 5, 1946, during Indonesia's post-independence nation-building phase. R.M. Margono Djojohadikusumo founded the bank as part of an effort to bolster Indonesia's economic self-reliance. "BNI was born from the spirit of struggle and the belief that this nation needed its own bank. From the beginning, BNI was not only present to perform banking functions but also to be part of the effort to build Indonesia's economic self-esteem," Putrama explained. As the first bank of the Republic of Indonesia, BNI was involved in issuing the Oeang Republik Indonesia (ORI), a symbol of the nation's economic sovereignty. This spirit of service and closeness to the community is reflected in the visual identity of the 80th anniversary logo, where the number 8 symbolizes continuous service and the number 0 represents integrity and continuity.
