Use of Foreign Workers and Knowledge Transfer Programs by Commercial Banks

Financial Services Authority Regulation No. 1 of 2026 establishes rules for the use of foreign workers (TKA) and knowledge transfer programs by commercial banks, replacing the previous 2017 regulation. It restricts TKA employment to specific executive, expert, or specialized roles, mandates Indonesian nationality majorities for key leadership positions, and prohibits TKA in personnel and compliance functions. The regulation requires prior approval from the Financial Services Authority for most TKA appointments, detailed business plan submissions, and imposes administrative sanctions including fines and governance rating downgrades for non-compliance.
