Simplify Your Business With ATM Bersama
Independent financial planners, Aidil Akbar, told me that when he had an internship at a company in America, he realized there was a difference between the financial problems of the general public in America and in Indonesia. In America, most of the problems revolve around taxes, and storage. Meanwhile, in Indonesia, most financial problems are on the cash flow or the flow of money coming in and money out.
“The most problematic in finance in Indonesia is to regulate cash flow. Particularly in the case of payment of bills,” says the owner of this Consulting Financial Akbar. According to him, in Indonesia, are still very many people who are late paying bills. “Unknowingly, we often pay bills late. For example, credit card bills, plus interest charges, not to mention the charge per delay,” he explained at the launch of the campaign 3C: Smart, Fast, Suitable from ATM Bersama some time ago in FX, Senayan , Jakarta.
According to Aidil, per one credit card, charge late payment fees can range between USD 50 000 – USD 150 000. “Let you multiply the number of times in a year you’re late. For example, two months, has been hit around USD 100,000 – USD 300,000. Maybe it felt a little, but with that much money, could have made investments in mutual funds, for example. Rather than cut USD 5000 while doing Joint ATM transactions, “concluded Aidil.
However, it was difficult when they want to pay the bills, but we’re far from Automated Teller Machines (ATMs) where used to pay bills. Aidil therefore, warmly welcomed the presence of ATM Bersama. So far, the fears of people to use the ATM Bersama is because of the additional bills, not to mention the usual clearing of two days, which meant a new transaction occurs the day after tomorrow since the use of ATMs. “However, programs and facilities from the ATM Bersama already realtime, and already there are around 22 000 outlets, will be easier for someone to pay the bills. Also if at any time when urgent need of emergency funds away from our bank’s ATM,” explained Aidil.
