How borrowers in Indonesia can address a poor SLIK credit record
Indonesia’s Financial Services Authority, known as OJK, keeps credit records in a system called SLIK, previously known as BI Checking.
Banks and other lenders use these records when assessing loan applications, and online lending history can also affect a borrower’s record.
SLIK scores range from 1, the strongest, to 5, which indicates problem debt.
Borrowers with scores of 3 to 5 need to address their records before applying for credit, while scores of 1 and 2 can apply to banks without difficulty related to their score.
People can check their own records through OJK’s iDebKu website.
If a debt is still unpaid, the borrower must pay it; if a record appears to be wrong, they should contact the relevant party.
OJK says records are usually updated within 30 days of repayment, and borrowers can request a letter confirming the debt is paid.
Indonesia’s financial regulator says borrowers can have their SLIK credit data updated after paying debts or taking other steps under applicable rules.
Borrowers with unpaid arrears must settle their obligations to clear a poor credit record, according to the article.
