PT Permodalan Nasional Madani (PNM) has been honored with an award recognizing its significant contributions to empowering the grassroots economy through Islamic finance. This accolade celebrates PNM's dedication to fostering financial inclusion, particularly among ultra-micro entrepreneurs and communities that have historically faced limited access to formal banking services.

The institution has focused on reaching segments of the population often overlooked by traditional financial institutions, providing them with essential banking and financial support.
